405 nm versus 633 nm for protoporphyrin IX excitation in fluorescence‐guided stereotactic biopsy of brain tumors 下载免费PDF全文

Fluorescence diagnosis may be used to improve the safety and reliability of stereotactic brain tumor biopsies using biopsy needles with integrated fiber optics. Based on 5‐aminolevulinic‐acid‐induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence, vital tumor tissue can be localized in vivo during the excision procedure to reduce the number of necessary samples for a reliable diagnosis. In this study, the practical suitability of two different PpIX excitation wavelengths (405 nm, 633 nm) was investigated on optical phantoms. Violet excitation at 405 nm provides a 50‐fold higher sensitivity for the bulk tumor; this factor increases up to 100 with decreasing fluorescent volume as shown by ray tracing simulations. Red excitation at 633 nm, however, is noticeably superior with regard to blood layers obscuring the fluorescence. Experimental results on the signal attenuation through blood layers of well‐defined thicknesses could be confirmed by ray tracing simulations. Typical interstitial fiber probe measurements were mimicked on agarose‐gel phantoms. Even in direct contact, blood layers of 20–40 µm between probe and tissue must be expected, obscuring 405‐nm‐excited PpIX fluorescence almost completely, but reducing the 633‐nm‐excited signal only by 25.5%. Thus, 633 nm seems to be the wavelength of choice for PpIX‐assisted detection of high‐grade gliomas in stereotactic biopsy.

Neural noise has been successfully used as a real time guide for verification of tumor site during stereotactic biopsy of brain tumors. This technique is a useful adjunct to other methods for tumor site verification and may possibly give pathophysiological information in peritumoral areas. 相似文献

KCTD10 is a member of the PDIP1 family, which is highly conserved during evolution, sharing a lot of similarities among human, mouse, and zebrafish. Recently, zebrafish KCTD13 has been identified to play an important role in the early development of brain and autism. However, the specific function of KCTD10 remains to be elucidated. In this study, experiments were carried out to determine the expression pattern of zebrafish KCTD10 mRNA during em- bryonic development. It was found that KCTD10 is a ma- ternal gene and KCTD10 is of great importance in the shaping of heart and blood vessels. Our data provide direct clues that knockdown of KCTDIO resulted in severe pericardial edema and loss of heart formation indicated by morphological observation and crucial heart markers like amhc, vmhc, and cmlc2. The heart defect caused by KCTD10 is linked to RhoA and PCNA. Flk-1 staining revealed that intersomitic vessels were lost in the trunk, although angioblasts could migrate to the midline. These findings could be helpful to better understand the determinants responsible for the heart and blood vessel defects. 相似文献

Circular RNA (circRNA) is a novel class of single-stranded RNAs with a closed loop structure. The majority of circRNAs are formed by a back-splicing process in pre-mRNA splicing. Their expression is dynamically regulated and shows spatiotemporal patterns among cell types, tissues and developmental stages. CircRNAs have important biological functions in many physiological processes, and their aberrant expression is implicated in many human diseases. Due to their high stability, circRNAs are becoming promising biomarkers in many human diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases and human cancers. In this review, we focus on the translational potential of using human blood circRNAs as liquid biopsy biomarkers for human diseases. We highlight their abundant expression, essential biological functions and significant correlations to human diseases in various components of peripheral blood, including whole blood, blood cells and extracellular vesicles. In addition, we summarize the current knowledge of blood circRNA biomarkers for disease diagnosis or prognosis. 相似文献

Novel method for early signs of clinical shock detection by monitoring blood capillary/vessel spatial pattern 下载免费PDF全文

The ability to monitor capillary/vessel spatial patterns and local blood volume fractions is critical in clinical shock detection and its prevention in Intensive Care Units (ICU). Although the causes of shock might be different, the basic abnormalities in pathophysiological changes are the same. To detect these changes, we have developed a novel method based on both spectrally and spatially resolved diffuse reflectance spectra. The preliminary study has shown that this method can monitor the spatial distribution of capillary/vessel spatial patterns through local blood volume fractions of reduced hemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin. This method can be used as a real‐time and non‐invasive tool for the monitoring of shock development and feedback on the therapeutic intervention. (© 2014 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

In this study, we report on the influence of trace elements (TE) on signal intensities of nuclear magnetic resonance images
(MRI), both in vivo and in vitro. Optimal parameters for the assessment of Mn concentration in the brain of rats on total
parenteral nutrition were established.
For the in vitro study, Mn and trace element solutions, one containing Zn, Cu, Fe, and I (TE-4) and another containing the
above elements plus Mn (TE-5), were diluted with physiological saline or with rat brain homogenate and used to measure signal
intensities in MRI. Concentration-dependent signal hyperintensity was observed in both cases in the Mn and the TE-5 solutions,
but no effect was observed with the TE-4 solution. The signal increase was greater for brain tissue homogenates.
In the in vivo study, the experimental animals were maintained under total parenteral nutrition (TPN) with a standard clinical
dose of TE-5 and/or with 10-fold the clinical dose of TE-4 and TE-5 for 1 wk. Only rats that were receiving the increased
TE-5 dose showed signal hyperintensity on MRI. Positive correlations were observed among the signal hyperintensity, the blood
Mn concentrations, and that of the rat brain.
Our results suggest that Mn in TE preparations may be the cause of signal hyperintensity on MRI in a concentration-dependent
fashion, and that MRI and measurement of blood Mn may be used to estimate Mn accumulation in brain tissue. 相似文献
