Objective To investigate the correlation between H.pylori strain possessing cagA gene and the formation of gastric lymphoid follicles(GLF),and the effect of H.pylori infection on the occurrence of GLF.Methods Antral biopsy specimens from 655 patients (chronic gastritis:n=479,peptic ulcer:n=176)were used for detection of H.pylori infection and histological analysis. CagA gene was examined in 70 clinical isolates by means of PCR－ amplification. Results The incidence of lymphoid follicles in gastric mucosa is significantly higher(60.14％ ) in patients with H.pylori infection than those without infection(17.06％ ).GLF is easier to be detected in patients with active gastritis than in those with inactive gastritis. There is no significant difference in the presence of GLF among H.pylori associated gastroduodenal diseases,such as chronic gastritis ,gastric ulcer. Moreover, there is also no significant relationship between H.pylori strains possessing cagA gene and GLF. Conclusion The presence of GLF might directly related with H.pylori infection, and can be observed as a constant morpholgical marker of H.pylori related gastroduodenal disease ;The formation of gastric lymphoid follicles is not related to the cytotoxin of cag A gene of H.pylori.

Objective:To observe the expression of estrogen receptor alpha(ER?) and beta(ER?) in human tongue cancer cell line Tca8113 and its highly metastatic cell line Tb. Metheds:Immunocytochemistry, RT-PCR methods were used to observe the expression of ERs in the in vitro cultured human tongue cancer Tca8113 and Tb cells.Results:ER? and ER? mRNA were expressed in both cell lines,and the expression of ER? in Tb cells was stronger than that in Tca8113 cells, the expression of ER? was the same in the two cell lines. The ratio of ER? to ER? was higher in Tb cells than that in Tca8113 cells.Conclusion:The overexpression of ER? and ER?/ER? ratio may be associated with the higher potential of metastasis of Tb cells.

Visfatin is a highly conserved protein expressed by visceral fat tissues that previously identified as pre B cell colony-enchancing factor (PBEF). Visfatin is a 52 ku cytokine and has been shown to exert multiple distinct biological activities. By interacting with insulin receptors, visfatin exhibits insulin mimicking or antagonizing effects under different circumstances. In addition, it possesses an nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt) activity inside the cells, which functions at the rate-limiting step along the pathway of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosyntheses. And finally, as an extracellular cytokine, visfatin is able to induce the expression of inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF?, IL-1? and IL-6. Visfatin has drawn increasing attentions to researchers for its close association with a variety of human metabolic and acute/chronic inflammatory diseases or disorders, including diabetes, obesity, acute lung injury, rheumatoid arthritis, sepsis, myocardial infarction and inflammatory bowel disease. Recently, the SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) analyses of visfatin and its promoter regions have provided more in-depth understandings of its roles in disease pathogenesis. A discussion in the current knowledge of the structure and diversified functions of visfatin, as well as its connections with a variety of common diseases was given.

Objective To investigate the application value of identification of the scalp surface locations of cerebral ischemia lesions before direct revascularization for moyamoya disease and to design surgical approaches according to this by using the fusion of single photon emission computed tomography ( SPECT) cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging. Methods The clinical data of 13 adult patients with ischemic-type moyamoya disease underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery were analyzed retrospectively. SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging was fused with CT imaging of the same machine before procedure. The lesions of ischemia were located on the cortical surface. The surgical approaches were designed at the center of the ischemic lesions. The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months after procedure. The improvement of clinical symptoms and cerebral perfusion of the patients were observed after operation. Results One patient had perioperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome,and the others did not have any perioperative complications. At one-month follow-up, the improvement of symptoms in 4 patients were excellent,in 5 were good,in 4 were fair,and none was poor. At 6 to 12 month follow-up,the improvement of symptoms in 9 patients were excellent,in 4 were good,and none was poor. The postoperative visual SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging analysis suggested that the cerebral perfusion was improved significantly as compared with before procedure in all patients. Quantitative analysis:There was significant difference in target ischemic lesions between preoperative Fb and postoperative Fb ([2. 13±1. 06]% vs. [4. 13±2. 09]%;P<0. 05). There was significant difference between preoperative Fb and Fe ([2. 46±1. 97]% vs. [2. 13±1. 06]%;P<0. 05). The postoperative BFCR was [67. 57±3. 78]%( >50%) , which indicated that the efficacy of the procedure was remarkable. The superficial temporal arteries fed to brain of the patients were observed after procedure by using the head CT angiography. The postoperative head MRI reexamination showed no new infarcts occurred at 6 months. Conclusion Combine SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging to design surgical approach for superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery may improve the efficacy and reduce the risks of operation.
