GST-π在低分化癌组织中高表达;Topo Ⅱ-α在高分化癌组织中的表达强度高于低分化癌（ P〈 0.01）.结论 GST-π和 Topo Ⅱ-α在结直肠癌组织中的表达与肿瘤的临床病理特征有关,可作为衡量肿瘤恶性程度和预后的指标之一.     

Inhibition of post-meningitic cochlear injury with cerebrospinal fluid irrigation.

OBJECTIVE: Labyrinthitis ossificans, the pathologic ossification of the otic capsule associated with profound deafness and loss of vestibular function occurs frequently as a sequella of bacterial meningitis and subsequent purulent labyrinthitis. Experimentally, in Streptococcus pneumoniae meningitis, it has been shown that a vigorous inflammatory response to teichoic acids in the bacterial cell wall contributes to cochlear damage and subsequent fibrosis and ossification. The hypothesis of this study is that a dilution of concentration of inflammatory mediators through cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) irrigation will lead to a reduction in both inner ear pathology and permanent hearing loss. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Auditory brainstem response testing was used to determine baseline hearing thresholds in 20 Mongolian gerbils (12 irrigated, 8 sham irrigated animals) at 32 kHz, 16 kHz, 8 kHz, and 4 kHz frequencies. Their thresholds at 14 days and 120 days post-procedure were also obtained. Streptococcus pneumoniae meningitis was induced in both groups of animals by intrathecal (i.t.) injection of bacteria. Both groups received penicillin treatment. Forty-eight hours after inoculation, both groups were implanted with i.t. inflow and outflow catheters. The irrigated group was infused continuously with artificial CSF over 36 hr at a rate of 70 muL/hr and the outflow sampled. The tubing in the sham irrigated group was clamped (without sampling). They were sacrificed at 120 days post-procedure and histomorphometric analysis carried out. The concentration of interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) for the CSF samples from the irrigated group were compared to samples collected from an additional control group of 8 non-irrigated meningitic gerbils. IL-1beta was chosen to study because it is a potent pro-inflammatory cytokines in bacterial meningitis that is unaffected by the neurosurgical trauma of the experimental protocol. RESULTS: Twenty animals survived the meningitis (6 irrigation, 6 sham irrigation, 8 non-irrigation meningitic controls). At Days 14 and 120 post-infection, the irrigated animals manifested significantly less hearing loss with a mean loss of 28.82 dB compared to the sham irrigation group mean loss of 40.76 dB (P < 0.03). The degree of hearing loss in both groups was frequency-dependent with greater loss at higher frequencies (mean loss = 22.4 dB at 32 kHz, 23.0 dB at 16 kHz, 18.6 dB at 8 kHz, and 12.5 dB at 4 kHz). Histomorphometric analysis demonstrated a marked reduction in degeneration of the spiral ligament, spiral ganglion cells, and stria vascularis in experimental animals as compared to controls. Immunohistochemistry showed a significant reduction in IL-beta1 concentrations in the irrigated animals compared to the non-irrigated, infected controls (P < 0.03). CONCLUSIONS: Irrigation of CSF resulted in a significant reduction in post-meningitic cochlear injury when compared to controls. This model for continuous cerebrospinal fluid irrigation provides a means to evaluate the effects of a dilution of inflammatory mediators on hearing loss and labyrinthitis ossificans after bacterial meningitis. SIGNIFICANCE: Despite advances in the prevention of meningitis and improved antibiotic treatment, bacterial meningitis continues to have significant associated morbidity. This study provides insight into some of the mechanisms responsible for post-meningitic hearing loss and labyrinthitis ossificans and presents a novel approach to reduce these complications.     

咽旁间隙在头颈部肿瘤MRI诊断中的价值

系统性红斑狼疮患者淋巴细胞亚群早期凋亡的初步研究

目的：检测系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者外周血单个核细胞(PBMC)中不同细胞亚群发生凋亡的情况，并初步分析其在SLE发病机制中的意义。方法：取28例SLE患者和性别年龄与之相匹配的20个正常对照者。采用淋巴细胞亚群标志、Annexin-V及碘化丙啶三色荧光标记、流式细胞术检测细胞的早期凋亡。结果：SLE患者体内CD3^ T细胞、CD4^ T细胞和CD8^ T细胞的凋亡百分率均显著高于正常对照组(P＜0．05)。同时，SLE患者T淋巴细胞的死亡百分率也高于正常人。经激素治疗一定时间后，这些细胞亚群的凋亡率会进一步升高(P＜0．01)，但CD4／CD8比值恢复至接近正常人。SLE患考体内CDl9^ B淋巴细胞的凋亡或死亡百分率和正常对照组相比均无明显差别，激素治疗对B细胞凋亡和死亡的影响亦不显著。结论：在SLE患者体内主要是T淋巴细胞凋亡增加，但SLE患者淋巴细胞数目减少不仅仅是因为细胞凋亡所致，死亡细胞数目明显升高也是其中一个重要原因。激素治疗可诱导SLE患者T淋巴细胞进一步发生凋亡，并使T细胞亚群比例有所改善。
