成年大鼠神经元和星形胶质细胞细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶抑制因子表达的差异研究

目的比较研究成年大鼠细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶抑制因子在神经元和星形胶质细胞的表达差异。方法应用免疫荧光和激光扫描共聚焦显微镜观察成年大鼠生理状态下大脑皮层或海马CA1、CA3、DG区神经元和星形胶质细胞细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶抑制因子(CDKI)p15Ink4b、p21cipl的表达。结果成年大鼠海马区和大脑皮层的神经元有p15Ink4b和p21cipl的表达,细胞核和细胞浆均有表达,且以胞核为主;星形胶质细胞也有上述细胞周期调控蛋白的表达,便细胞数目较少,并且表达这些指标的星形胶质细胞多聚集在海马区。结论成年大鼠大脑皮层和海马区的神经元和星形胶质细胞均表达p15Ink4b和p21cipl,而其在神经元的表达较星形胶质细胞更为普遍。     

Splenic irradiation in HIV-related thrombocytopenia

Splenic irradiation has been used in patients with HIV-related thrombocytopenia. This retrospective review deals with four patients treated with low dose splenic irradiation. All patients had an increase in platelet count and tolerated the treatment without side effects. However, the treatment response lasted for several months only.     

P16MTS1、P27KIP1基因在胆管癌组织中的表达研究

目的：探讨P16^MIS1,P27^KIP1基因与胆管癌临床病理的关系。方法：采用免疫组化方法，检测48例胆管癌和8例伴慢性炎症的胆管壁组织中P16^MIS1,P27^KIP1蛋白表达情况。结果：（1）胆管癌中P16^MIS1,P27^KIP1阳性表达率分别为47．9％和35．4％，而伴炎症的胆管组织阳性表达率为100％和87．5％；（2）P16^MIS1,P27KIP1蛋白表达与胆管癌的分化程度，有无淋巴结或远处转移以及临床分期呈显著相关性。结论：P16^MIS1,P27^KIP1多基因表达异常可能与胆管癌的发生发展有关，是衡量胆管癌预后的有用指标。     

Common bile duct calculi: updated experience with dissolution with methyl tertiary butyl ether

The authors describe their experience with methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in a larger series of patients than previously reported in order to acquaint physicians with both its effectiveness for dissolution of common bile duct calculi and the limitations of its use. Ten patients with 13 biliary calculi underwent percutaneous stone dissolution treatment with the experimental cholesterol solvent, MTBE. Three stones completely dissolved within 30 minutes, seven were reduced in size, and three were visibly unaffected. All stones not completely dissolved were easily extracted by means of a stone basket except for one in a patient taken to surgery. Although MTBE perfusion is an effective technique for management of biliary calculi, practitioners should be aware that its use is quite time consuming and its odor difficult to control.     

Clinical MR imaging with a Helmholtz-type surface coil

Limited-field-of-view radio-frequency receiver antennas provide improved near-field sensitivity for magnetic resonance imaging by decreasing the antenna volume. The Helmholtz-type surface coil, consisting of two flat rings, is an organ-encompassing antenna that takes advantage of this principle to yield an improved signal-to-noise ratio (S/N). The coil was tested in a group of 50 patients and 16 healthy volunteers. Images obtained with the Helmholtz coil demonstrated quantitatively superior S/N of 2.2-fold or greater than that of comparison body coil images, as well as qualitatively superior anatomic resolution.
