Objective To investigate the chemical properties of superficial cardiac neurons. Methods By means of immunohistochemical ABC technique,the study was performed concerning the distribution of calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) and substance P(SP) in the canine main cardiac superficial plexus. Results CGRP-immunoreactive(IR) neurons were found in every plexus,but SP-IR neurons could be observed only in dorsal atria plexus(DAP),inter atria plexus(IAP) and aorta-pulmonary plexus(A-PP).The shape and size of CGRP-IR and SP-IR neurons were similar.The comparative study on atria and ventricles indicated that CGRP-IR and SP-IR neurons in atria were more than those in ventricles.Numerous CGRP-IR,SP-IR nerve fibers could be observed in each fat pats and intermyocardiocytes.These nerve fibers were usually situated near blood vessels,or were attached to vessel wall.Somewhat CGRP-IR and SP-IR nerve fibers were connected with myocardiocytes in some regions.Conclusion The results indicated that actually existed two peptides in canine cardiac superficial plexus.These implied that the regulations of the two kinds of peptidergic neurons to atria and ventricle were different.The two kinds of neurons mentioned above were likely to perform different or similar functions in canine heart.CGRP and SP could possibly modulate the activities of myocardiocytes and vessels of heart directly.

Objective To investigate the clinical, biochemical and genetic features of a Chinese boy with holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency (HCSD). Methods The clinical and genetic data of a rare case of HCSD were retrospectively analyzed. Results After birth, the boy showed development delay. At 3 months old, the boy was started with rehabilitation. Tandem mass spectrum and gas chromatography analysis was carried in the 5th month after birth because of the recurrent upper respiratory tract infection and elevated level of C5-OH in the blood and decreased level of C0,and elevated level of 3-OH-propionic, pyruvic acid, methylcrotonylglycine in the urine were in accordance with the HCSD. Genetic analysis found compound heterozygous mutations of c.1648G>A and c.1544G>A in gene, of which the latter one is novel. After the treatment of biotin (20 mg/d) and L-Carnitine, the condition of this boy was gradually improved. Conclutions HCSD is characterized with slow onset and inconspicuous manifestations. The confirmed diagnosis can be built with MS/MS, GC/MS analysis and gene mutation analysis. The effect of early biotin treatment is satisfactory. In this study,we carried out clinical and genetic diagnosis,which lays a solid foundation for prenatal diagnosis and early treatment.
