人脑星形细胞肿瘤中FHIT、PCNA蛋白表达关系的研究

目的研究人脑星形细胞肿瘤中FHIT、PCNA蛋白的差异表达，探讨它们与病理分级之间的关系。方法应用免疫组化SP法检测了50例星形细胞肿瘤中不同级别的FHIT、PCNA蛋白的表达水平，以10例非肿瘤脑组织作对照。结果非肿瘤脑组织FHIT、PCNA蛋白阳性表达率分别为100％，0％，星形细胞肿瘤中FHIT、PCNA蛋白阳性表达率分别为40％，86％；尽管在星形细胞肿瘤中FHIT、PCNA蛋白表达总体差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05），但Ⅲ级与Ⅳ级比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）；经统计学分析FHIT、PCNA蛋白呈显著负相关（P〈0．01）。结论FHIT、PCNA蛋白的表达可能与星形细胞肿瘤的恶性程度有关，星形细胞肿瘤中FHIT、PCNA蛋白表达之间的显著负相关，提示FHIT蛋白可能对细胞增殖具有负性调控作用。     

A presenilin 1 mutation (L420R) in a family with early onset Alzheimer disease,seizures and cotton wool plaques,but not spastic paraparesis

Over 100 mutations in the presenilin‐1 gene (PSEN1) have been shown to result in familial early onset Alzheimer disease (EOAD), but only a relatively few give rise to plaques with an appearance like cotton wool (CWP) and/or spastic paraparesis (SP). A family with EOAD, seizures and CWP was investigated by neuropathological study and DNA sequencing of the PSEN1 gene. Aβ was identified in leptomeningeal vessels and in cerebral plaques. A single point mutation, p.L420R (g.1508T > G) that gives rise to a missense mutation in the eighth transmembrane (TM8) domain of PS1 was identified in two affected members of the family. p.L420R (g.1508T > G) is the mutation responsible for EOAD, seizures and CWP without SP in this family.     

MBP对PBMC产生IFN-γ和NO的影响

目的探讨T细胞非特异性活化在CNS脱髓鞘性疾病中的作用。方法分离实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎(EAE)易感性BALB/c小鼠外周血单个核细胞(PBMC),采用体外细胞培养方法在体外与碱性髓鞘蛋白(MBP)共培养,测定培养上清液中IFN-γ、NO水平。结果经MBP刺激的PBMC产生IFN-γ[(43.83±6.06)pg/mL]和NO[(180.76±20.75)μmol/L]明显增加,与对照组产生的IFN-γ[(28.52±2.18)pg/mL]和NO[(95.61±13.09)μmol/L]相比差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论在CNS脱髓鞘性疾病发病过程中,活化的T细胞、单核细胞等分泌致炎细胞因子和其他有害物质增多。     

纳洛酮对中重型颅脑损伤病人血浆C-反应蛋白的影响

目的评价纳洛酮对脑外伤的早期疗效及C-反应蛋白(CRP)检测在纳洛酮治疗脑外伤中的应用价值。方法将68例重型脑外伤病人随机分为治疗组30例和对照组38例,对照组给予常规治疗,治疗组在常规治疗的基础上,给予纳洛酮0.4mg·kg-·1d-1治疗。观察病人的GCS评分、颅内压及头颅CT所示脑水肿的变化,并测定治疗前后血清CRP浓度。结果治疗组在提高GCS评分、降低颅内压、控制脑水肿等方面均明显优于对照组(P<0.01)。两组治疗前CRP分别为(73.64±8.64)mg/L(、69.23±7.31)mg/L,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);治疗后治疗组为(37.25±11.45)mg/L,对照组为(48.54±12.07)mg/L,治疗组明显低于对照组(P<0.01)。结论①纳洛酮综合治疗脑外伤效果明显。②CRP可作为颅脑外伤病情及纳洛酮治疗效果判断的参考指标。     

骨调素和单核细胞趋化蛋白在大鼠梗阻性肾病中的表达及可能作用

目的:探讨骨调素(OPN)和单核细胞趋化蛋白(MCP-1)在大鼠梗阻性模型中的表达及其在肾脏纤维化发病机制中的作用.方法:采用-单侧输尿管结扎制造梗阻性肾病模型,分别于造模后7 d、14 d取肾组织,应用HE染色观察肾脏病理改变,免疫组化方法检测肾组织畔OPN和MCP-1蛋白的表达,应用逆转录-聚合酶链式反应(RT-PCR)法观察肾组织中OPN mRNA和MCP-1 mRNA的变化.结果:OPN、MCP-1表达主要位于肾小管上皮细胞,随着梗阻时间的延长,肾组织中OPN、MCP-1蛋白和mRNA表达明显增加.结论:OPN、MCP-1蛋白和mRNA在梗阻性肾病大鼠肾组织表达明显增加介导炎症过程,参与肾间质纤维化.     

Clinical significance of urinary white blood cell count and serum C-reactive protein level for detection of non-palpable prostate cancer

AIM: The clinical significance of the urinary white blood cell (U-WBC) count and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) level was evaluated in an effort to improve the efficiency of prostate biopsies. METHODS: We enrolled 228 consecutive patients with serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ranging from 3.0 to 20.0 ng/mL, normal digital rectal examination findings, and who underwent prostate biopsies between January 2001 and August 2004. Of these, 157 patients had histologically confirmed benign prostatic disease and the remaining 71 patients had prostate cancer. Patients with a pretreatment U-WBC count < or =3 or >3/high power field were defined as non-pyuria and pyuria, respectively. The patients were also separated into two groups based on the serum CRP level prior to biopsy. Several clinical factors were compared among these subgroups. RESULTS: Inflammation was histologically detected at rates of 58.1% and 34.1% in the pyuria and non-pyuria groups, respectively (P = 0.0014). The rates of cancer detection were significantly lower in the pyuria, than in the non-pyuria group (P = 0.0384). The cancer detection rates did not significantly differ according to serum CRP levels prior to biopsy. CONCLUSION: The U-WBC count appears to be a reliable indicator of minute prostatic inflammation. The serum PSA level was elevated in patients with asymptomatic prostatitis. Counting U-WBC is a simple, convenient and non-invasive method that should be valuable part of routine urological examinations.
