个体化假体复合组织工程技术修复兔下颌骨缺损

目的研究快速成型（RP）技术辅助下制作的个体化假体复合珊瑚羟基磷灰石（CHA）、重组人骨形成蛋白2（rhBMP-2）修复兔下颌骨缺损的成骨效果。 方法以27只新西兰大白兔为实验对象，随机数字表法平均分成3组（每组9只），全部建立下颌骨连续性缺损模型，并在兔下颌骨缺损区分别植入个体化假体+自体骨（A组）、个体化假体+CHA（B组）、个体化假体+CHA+rhBMP-2（C组）。分别于术后4、12、24周3个时间点处死动物取材，进行大体标本观察，以及骨钙素（OC）、Ⅰ型胶原（COL-1）的免疫组化观察，分别比较各组修复骨缺损的能力，并对实验数据进行重复测量设计资料的单因素方差分析。 结果术后24周各组实验兔外形均对称，通过OC及COL-1的吸光度检测，骨缺损区均有大量新骨形成，A组（0.537 ± 0.010）、C组（0.530 ± 0.010）可见大量骨小梁及编织骨结构，缺损区的新骨OC、COL-1的免疫组化观察基本一致，差异无统计学意义（t = 0.007，P>0.05）；但A组强于B组（0.415 ± 0.009，t = 0.122，P<0.001）；C组也强于B组（t = 0.121，P<0.001），差异均有统计学意义。 结论在兔下颌骨缺损修复中，通过RP技术和组织工程技术相结合，CHA复合rhBMP-2后成骨能力明显增强，成骨效能肯定，为后期的临床应用提供可靠的实验基础。     

自发性高血压大鼠永久性脑缺血模型建立的研究

目的在比较自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)与同龄无高血压Wistar大鼠永久性大脑中动脉阻塞(pMCAO)后脑缺血损伤情况并初步分析其可能机制。方法雄性SHR和Wistar大鼠各30只分别随机分为:pMCAO模型6 h组、假手术6 h组、pMCAO模型24 h组、假手术24 h组和正常组(均n=6)。采用线栓法制作pMCAO模型,术后6、24 h对大鼠进行神经功能学评分后处死,制作脑冠状切片。术后6 h处死大鼠脑部切片行尼氏染色后在组织学层面上观察神经元损伤情况;术后24 h处死大鼠脑部切片行尼氏染色后计算脑梗死体积和水肿程度百分比。正常组脑部切片经苏木精-伊红染色后计算脑部小血管壁/腔比。结果术后6和24 h,不同品系大鼠神经功能学评分差异无统计学意义(P0.05);术后6 h尼氏染色示SHR神经元损伤重于Wistar大鼠。术后24 h SHR脑梗死体积百分比[(28.05±2.38)%]大于Wistar大鼠[(25.23±1.33)%],差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。两品系大鼠之间脑水肿程度差异无显著性。脑部小血管壁/腔比SHR[(11.46±3.74)%]较Wistar大鼠[(8.73±1.73)%]增大(P0.05)。结论 pMCAO术后SHR的脑缺血损伤程度重于Wistar大鼠,可能与高血压引起的脑侧支循环血管壁增厚、僵硬,自我调节能力降低有关。     

Characterization of membrane occupation and recognition nexus repeat containing 3, meiosis expressed gene 1 binding partner,in mouse male germ cells

Mammalian spermatogenesis is a well-organized process of cell development and differentiation. Meiosis expressed gene 1 (MEIG1) plays an essential role in the regulation of spermiogenesis. To explore potential mechanisms of MEIG1''s action, a yeast two-hybrid screen was conducted, and several potential binding partners were identified; one of them was membrane occupation and recognition nexus repeat containing 3 (MORN3). MORN3 mRNA is only abundant in mouse testis. In the testis, Morn3 mRNA is highly expressed in the spermiogenesis stage. Specific anti-MORN3 polyclonal antibody was generated against N-terminus of the full-length MORN3 protein, and MORN3 expression and localization was examined in vitro and in vivo. In transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells, the antibody specifically crossed-reacted the full-length MORN3 protein, and immunofluorescence staining revealed that MORN3 was localized throughout the cytoplasm. Among multiple mouse tissues, about 25 kDa protein, was identified only in the testis. The protein was highly expressed after day 20 of birth. Immunofluorescence staining on mixed testicular cells isolated from adult wild-type mice demonstrated that MORN3 was expressed in the acrosome in germ cells throughout spermiogenesis. The protein was also present in the manchette of elongating spermatids. The total MORN3 expression and acrosome localization were not changed in the Meig 1-deficient mice. However, its expression in manchette was dramatically reduced in the mutant mice. Our studies suggest that MORN3 is another regulator for spermatogenesis, probably together with MEIG1.     

非高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平与冠心病患者冠状动脉病变Gensini评分的相关性研究

目的 探讨非高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平(non-HDL-C)与冠心病(CHD)患者冠状动脉病变Gensini评分的关系及临床意义。方法 对225例疑诊或既往临床诊断CHD患者予以冠状动脉造影(CAG),将造影阴性的39例作为对照组(HC组),造影阳性的186例患者诊断为CHD,结合临床特点分为心绞痛组(AP组)122例和心肌梗死组(AMI组)64例。采用Gensini评分对冠状动脉病变程度评分,测定患者全套血脂水平,探讨non-HDL-C及相关脂质成分与冠状动脉病变程度Gensini评分的相关性;同时对他汀类药物强化降脂达标,低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)<1.80 mmol/L的AP组患者进行non-HDL-C与冠状动脉病变程度Gensini评分的亚组分析。结果 AMI组non-HDL-C水平高于AP组及HC组,AP组non-HDL-C水平高于HC组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05);CHD患者non-HDL-C水平与Gensini评分呈正相关(r=0.562,P<0.05);LDL-C控制达标的AP组患者,高non-HDL-C组(≥2.60 mmol/L)比低non-HDL-C组(<2.60 mmol/L)Gensini评分明显升高,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论 non-HDL-C与冠状动脉病变程度密切相关,non-HDL-C在评估LDL-C控制达标患者的冠状动脉病变程度及再发心血管事件风险上有一定价值,可作为LDL-C达标后心血管残余风险新的观察指标。     

Melatonin induces apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells through HDAC4 nuclear import mediated by CaMKII inactivation

Melatonin induces apoptosis in many different cancer cell lines, including colorectal cancer. However, the precise mechanisms involved remain largely unresolved. In this study, we provide evidence to reveal a new mechanism by which melatonin induces apoptosis of colorectal cancer LoVo cells. Melatonin at pharmacological concentrations significantly suppressed cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in a dose‐dependent manner. The observed apoptosis was accompanied by the melatonin‐induced dephosphorylation and nuclear import of histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4). Pretreatment with a HDAC4‐specific siRNA effectively attenuated the melatonin‐induced apoptosis, indicating that nuclear localization of HDAC4 is required for melatonin‐induced apoptosis. Moreover, constitutively active Ca²⁺/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II alpha (CaMKIIα) abrogated the melatonin‐induced HDAC4 nuclear import and apoptosis of LoVo cells. Furthermore, melatonin decreased H3 acetylation on bcl‐2 promoter, leading to a reduction of bcl‐2 expression, whereas constitutively active CaMKIIα(T286D) or HDAC4‐specific siRNA abrogated the effect of melatonin. In conclusion, the present study provides evidence that melatonin‐induced apoptosis in colorectal cancer LoVo cells largely depends on the nuclear import of HDAC4 and subsequent H3 deacetylation via the inactivation of CaMKIIα.

Family Caregivers' Subjective Caregiving Burden,Quality of Life,and Depressive Symptoms Are Associated With Terminally Ill Cancer Patients' Distinct Patterns of Conjoint Symptom Distress and Functional Impairment in Their Last Six Months of Life

Context

Family caregivers constitute a critical component of the end-of-life care system with considerable cost to themselves. However, the joint association of terminally ill cancer patients' symptom distress and functional impairment with caregivers' subjective caregiving burden, quality of life (QOL), and depressive symptoms remains unknown.

The Long-Term Effective Rate of Different Branches of Idiopathic Trigeminal Neuralgia After Single Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation: A Cohort Study

To evaluate the efficacy of computed tomography (CT) guided single radiofrequency thermocoagualtion (RFT) in 1137 patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia after a follow-up period of 11 years, specially focused on duration of pain relief in different branches of trigeminal nerve, side effect, and complications.Retrospective study of patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia treated with a single CT guided RFT procedure between January 2002 and December 2013.The mean follow-up time was 46.14 ± 30.91 months. Immediate postprocedure pain relief was 98.4%. V2 division obtained the best pain relief rate: 91%, 89%, 80%, 72%, 60%, and 54% at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 years, respectively. No statistical difference pairwise comparison was in other groups. The complications included masseter muscle weakness, corneitis, diplopia, ptosis, hearing loss, limited mouth opening, and low pressure headache. Masticatory weakness mostly occurred in patients with V3 branch involvement, while Corneitis and Diplopia all in patients with V1 branch involvement. No mortalities observed during or after RFT.All different branches division of trigeminal neuralgia achieved comparable satisfactory curative effect; V2 obtained the best excellent pain relief, after RFT procedure. Facial numbness is inevitable after RFT, which patients who have pain in all 3 trigeminal divisions and patients who desire no facial numbness should be cautious. Masticatory weakness is mainly related with V3 injured, while Corneitis and Diplopia in patients with V1 injured by RFT.     

纯化痘病毒筛选的常用方法

痘病毒是自然界普遍存在的DNA病毒，能够高效表达外源基因，诱导较强的细胞免疫和体液免疫，受到基因治疗学者的广泛关注。痘病毒发生同源重组的概率较低，所以有效地筛选和纯化痘病毒十分重要。目前常用的筛选重组痘病毒方法有基于CRISPR进行筛选；根据报告基因GFP、LacZ、GPT等进行筛选；利用TK^-和Brdu结合荧光进行筛选；利用药物抗性基因与荧光或显色基因融合，即可在药物筛选的同时观察荧光或显色基因表达情况。本文旨在对目前常用的痘病毒的筛选纯化方法进行综述。
