心肌梗死患者窦性心律震荡的检测及其临床意义

目的：探讨心肌梗死（心梗）患者窦性心律震荡检测的临床意义。方法：测定24小时动态心电监测的170例心梗患者和116例正常人室性早搏（室早）后的震荡初始（TO）和震荡斜率（TS）值及平均值，并进行对比分析。结果：心梗患者室早后的TO值明显高于对照组、鸭值明显低于对照组（P〈0．05和P〈0．01），TO和／或TS异常组死亡率明显高于TO和鸭均正常组（P〈0．001）。结论：心梗后患者窦性心律震荡现象减弱或消失时，其猝死的发生率增高，及时检测心梗患者室早后的TO和TS值，对发生猝死的高危患者的检出、危险度分层以及对其进行干预治疗都有重要的临床意义。

Gemins modulate the expression and activity of the SMN complex

Reduction in the expression of the survival of motor neurons (SMN) protein results in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a common motor neuron degenerative disease. SMN is part of a large macromolecular complex (the SMN complex) that includes at least six additional proteins called Gemins (Gemin2-7). The SMN complex is expressed in all cells and is present throughout the cytoplasm and in the nucleus where it is concentrated in Gems. The SMN complex plays an essential role in the production of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) and likely other RNPs. To study the roles of the individual proteins, we systematically reduced the expression of SMN and each of the Gemins (2-6) by RNA interference. We show that the reduction of SMN leads to a decrease in snRNP assembly, the disappearance of Gems, and to a drastic reduction in the amounts of several Gemins. Moreover, reduction of Gemin2 or Gemin6 strongly decreases the activity of the SMN complex. These findings demonstrate that other components of the SMN complex, in addition to SMN, are critical for the activity of the complex and suggest that Gemin2 and Gemin6 are potentially important modifiers of SMA as well as potential disease genes for non-SMN motor neuron diseases.     

A second field metachronous Merkel cell carcinoma of the lip and the palatine tonsil confirmed by microarray-based comparative genomic hybridisation

Merkel cell carcinoma was diagnosed in a 79-year-old Caucasian woman. The tumour was localised to the upper lip and was in stage T2. After successful cryosurgery and a 7-year tumour-free period, a new tumour developed in her palatine tonsil. Histologically and immunohistochemically, this resembled the tumour in the lip. The regional lymph nodes were devoid of metastasis. The paraffin-embedded material of the two tumours and the unaffected lymphatic tissue were analysed with DNA microarrays for comparative genomic hybridisation to assess the genetic relationship of the tumours. In both tumours, regions on 2p and 10p were commonly over-represented, while 41 regions on chromosomes 1–4, 6, 8–9, 11 and 14–22 were commonly under-represented. Chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 16–18 and X were most frequently involved in the DNA losses. In gene copy numbers in the two tumours, 31 chromosome locations were found to be differently affected. The partly similar and partly different molecular patterns indicated a genetic relationship between the tumours and excluded the possibility that the tonsillar tumour was a metastasis. The findings suggest that a genetically altered field was the reason for the development of the tonsillar cancer; thus, it can be regarded pathogenetically as a second field tumour.
