Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of laboratory mouse fixation, and particularly relates to a laboratory mouse fixer adapted for an X-ray irradiator and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Esophageal cancer is a common upper gastrointestinal malignancy and is currently ranked as the eighth most common cancer in the world. The high incidence and mortality of this disease make it a major public health issue in my country. Radiotherapy is one of the core means of treating esophageal cancer and is involved in almost every stage of disease management. For patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with surgery is an internationally recognized standard treatment strategy that can effectively reduce tumor size, increase R0 resection rate and prolong the patient's disease-free survival. For patients with a higher risk of postoperative recurrence, adjuvant radiotherapy can reduce the local recurrence rate.
[0003] In the specific experimental process, experimental mice were selected to carry out radiation pulmonary fibrosis (RPF) pathological reactions to assist in the development of therapeutic vaccines based on relevant antigens. In order to adapt to the RS2000pro biological X-ray irradiator, an experimental living body fixing structure needs to be designed to ensure the stability of the experimental mice during radiotherapy and surgical sampling. The existing laboratory mouse fixing device, referring to the laboratory mouse fixing device disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent with application number CN202123170403.5, is provided with a working area that can be adsorbed by a magnet on the base plate, and then provided with multiple fixing seats. When in use, the clamping heads of the multiple fixing seats are respectively clamped on the limbs of the laboratory mouse. This structure has a wide range of adaptability and is a mostly selected fixing structure. However, within the irradiation range of the X-ray irradiator, the position of the laboratory mouse needs to be limited and fixed. When this type of equipment is used, the buffer space reserved for the laboratory mouse is large, and it is not suitable for related experimental fixation; Another example is a mouse fixator disclosed in the Chinese invention patent application number CN201410217986.8. This type of fixator mainly uses a limiting structure to perform local positioning. When this structure is used, it cannot be used in organ irradiation experiments and subsequent lung lobe sampling operations because the limb structures and chest organs of experimental mice are gathered together. In irradiation experiments, it is necessary to ensure that the experimental mice are fixed in the irradiation area of the X-ray irradiator, to ensure that the experimental mice are shielded from radiation outside the irradiation range, and to ensure the stability of the shielding mask. When adapting to the sampling process after radiotherapy, the organs should also be dispersed to facilitate sampling. For this reason, we propose an experimental mouse fixer adapted to the X-ray irradiator and a method of use. Summary of the invention

Pull up the back skin of the experimental mouse from the position of the pulling groove 26, and then turn the limiting fixing plate 2 180 degrees to place the experimental mouse on the limiting fixing plate 2 in a supine position. Place the head of the experimental mouse on the head holder 41, and the mouth and nose of the experimental mouse on the position of the oxygen supply mimetic hood 42. Fill the inner side of the oxygen supply tube 43 with anesthetic cotton balls, and use the oxygen supply mimetic hood 42 to continuously anesthetize the experimental mouse with oxygen. Then place the limbs of the anesthetized experimental mouse on the corresponding positions of the limb fixing plate 21, and place the wrist of the experimental mouse on the end position of the limb restraint tube 22. The tail is placed outside the position of the tail placement groove 25 on the limiting fixing plate 2, and the fixer cover plate 3 is buckled on the top of the limiting fixing plate 2, so that the fixer cover plate 3 is fixed to the head fixer 4 and the limiting fixing plate 2, wherein the limb fixing cover 31 and the limb restraint tube 2 32 are buckled with the limb fixing plate 21 and the limb restraint tube 1 22 respectively, and the limbs of the experimental mouse are pulled up so that the wrist of the experimental mouse completely passes through the limiting space of the limb restraint tube 1 22 and the limb restraint tube 2 32, and the strap 5 is respectively set on the limb restraint tube 1 22 and the limb restraint tube 2 32 corresponding to the position of the wrist bone of the experimental mouse, and the limbs of the experimental mouse are fixed, and then the tail of the experimental mouse is bent and fitted on the outside of the limiting fixing plate 2; The fixing column 13 on the radiation shielding cover 1 is buckled into the position of the positioning hole 34 on the fixing cover plate 3 to complete the installation of the radiation shielding cover 1, and then the experimental mouse is placed according to the irradiation position of the X-ray irradiator standard sample chamber, and the long plate shielding cover 12 or the short plate shielding cover 11 is selected to be added to the slide groove position of the radiation shielding cover 1, and the irradiation experimental mouse is fixed.

[0032] Disassemble the above-mentioned experimental mouse holder, rinse the parts with clean water to remove residual stains and hair, then soak them in disinfectant water for 15 minutes, take them out and dry them for storage.
[0033] Embodiment 2
[0034] When collecting lung lobe tissues from the above-mentioned experimental mice, the above-mentioned experimental mice and normal mice were raised independently and selected as the RPF group and the control group. The cycle was 12-16 hours, during which they were fasted but not watered. Afterwards, the experimental mice and normal mice were placed in a sterile surgical environment respectively; Check whether the experimental mouse holder can be used normally, and use 75% alcohol to wipe and disinfect the radiation shielding cover 1, the limit fixing plate 2, the holder cover plate 3, the head holder 4, the strap 5, the spreader 6 and the positioning plate 7, as well as the above-mentioned parts that come into contact with the experimental mouse; Prepare surgical instruments including scalpels, surgical scissors, tweezers, 75% alcohol, saline, paraformaldehyde, etc. When anesthetizing experimental mice and normal mice, sodium pentobarbital or isoflurane is often used for anesthesia. When intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbital is used, the dose is generally 30-50 mg / kg body weight. When using isoflurane anesthesia, the induction concentration is generally 3% to 5%, and the maintenance concentration is 1.5% to 2.5%.
[0035] After anesthesia takes effect, the mouse is fixed on the operating table in a supine position, and the chest is disinfected with 75% alcohol, and extensive disinfection is performed from the neck to the abdomen. The tissue in the chest cavity is carefully separated, the lungs are exposed, and the morphology and position of the lung lobes are observed.
[0036] The specific steps of fixing the irradiated experimental mice and normal mice can refer to the relevant steps in Example 1; Then install and fix the spreader 6 at the position of the positioning plate 7 and adjust it for standby use. When the incision of the experimental mouse is exposed, buckle and fix the support hook 63 on both sides of the incision of the experimental mouse to support the incision. This part mainly supports the surface skin. The skin should be cut along the midline of the abdomen of the surgical mouse, and the sternum should be cut upward from the xiphoid process to expose the chest cavity; One lobe of the left lung was removed from the operated mice for histopathological analysis, and 100 mg of the four lobes of the right lung were taken for immunopeptide group analysis. The removed lung lobe samples were immediately placed in a culture dish filled with physiological saline, and the samples were placed in paraformaldehyde fixative for storage. In addition, due to the need for cardiac perfusion, the mouse lung tissue for single-cell sequencing needed to be prepared separately.
[0037] After sampling is completed, the support hook 63 is removed from the incision position, and the incision of the surgical mouse is disinfected and sutured. The spreader 6 is removed from the position of the positioning plate 7, and the steps of removing the experimental mouse from the fixator are repeated. The disinfection steps are repeated to disinfect the above surgical mouse fixator to complete the disinfection and storage.
[0038] The specific steps for using the spreader 6 are as follows: screw the top of the lifting screw 66 clockwise from bottom to top to penetrate the screw hole on the positioning plate 7, and screw the limiting nut 65 counterclockwise to the outside of the lifting screw 66, press the inner circle of the hole-bearing pillow block 64, screw the top of the lifting screw 66 and the inner circle of the hole-bearing pillow block 64 clockwise to fix it, release the pressing part, and rotate the lifting screw 66 clockwise to adjust the use height of the spreader 6 to the top; screw the adjusting screw 61 clockwise along the screw hole on the spreader 6 to adjust the outward length of the support hook 63 to above the lung lobe of the experimental mouse, and rotate the locking nut on the adjusting screw 61 clockwise until the above-mentioned locking nut is tightly fitted with the spreader 6; rotate the lifting screw 66 counterclockwise until the support hook 63 moves to the incision position, and rotate the limiting nut 65 counterclockwise along the thread on the lifting screw 66 Screw it together and move it down until it is close to the top of the positioning plate 7, and then buckle the skin incision of the experimental mouse on the support hooks 63 on both sides respectively. When the lung lobe sample is taken and placed, the skin incision of the experimental mouse is separated from the support hooks 63. After the wound of the experimental mouse is sutured, the limiting nut 65 is rotated clockwise along the thread on the lifting screw 66, wherein the rotation height of the limiting nut 65 is greater than the fixed height of the lifting screw 66 and the inner circle of the hole-bearing pillow block 64. At this time, press the inner circle of the hole-bearing pillow block 64 and rotate the lifting screw 66 counterclockwise to separate the lifting screw 66 from the inner circle thread of the hole-bearing pillow block 64, and complete the disassembly of the spreader 6, and then continue to rotate the limiting nut 65 clockwise along the lifting screw 66 until the two are completely separated, and then rotate the lifting screw 66 counterclockwise from the positioning plate 7 to remove it. At this time, repeat the above disassembly steps to remove the experimental mouse.
