Background To construct and analyze the differentially expressed gene library in the SD rat's brain of Parkinson's disease.Methods The lateralization Parkinson's disease model of SD rat was established by stereotaxis injection of 6-OHDA in lateralization corpora striatum. Suppression subtractive hybridization was utilized to isolate the cDNA fragments in both control and experimental groups. Then the cDNA fragments were directly bound to pMD18-T to set up the subtractive library. Amplification of the library was carried out by transformation of E. coli with high voltage electroperforation. Ninety five positive bacteria clones were randomly picked up and identified by colony PCR.Results The amplified library contained more than 1500 positive bacteria clones. Ninety-five clones were analyzed randomly by colony PCR. And there were 81% clones contained 100 ~600 bp DNA fragments. They might be the cDNA fragments of differentially expressed genes of Parkinson's disease.Conclusions A differentially expressed genes subtracted cDNA library of Parkinson's disease of SD rat was constructed successfully with SSH and T/A cloning techniques. The library is efficient and it was useful in screening and cloning new and specific differential expression genes of Parkinson's disease.

Objective To study the effect of PUMA gene mediated by recombinant adenovirus vector combined with radiation on the pancreatic carcinoma. Methods The PANC-1 cells were infected with Ad-PUMA (MOI = 10, 50 and 100, respectively) for 48 h. The expression of PUMA mRNA and protein was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. PANC-1 cells were divided into 4 groups: control group, transfection group, irradiation group and combined treatment group. The cell growth inhibition rate and apoptotic rate of PANC-1 cells were assessed by MTT assay and flow cytometry. Human pancreatic carcinomas were transplanted subcutaneously in nude mice, which were randomized into 4 groups: control group, transfection group, irradiation group and combined treatment group. Tumor growth rate and apoptotie index at different time points were recorded in 35 days. Results The expression of PUMA mRNA and protein was increased with the increase of MOI of Ad-PUMA, which was does-dependant (MOI = 10, mRNA = 0.46 ± 0.02, protein = 0. 75 ±0.09;MOI=50, mRNA= 1.12±0.09, protein = 1.01 ±0.18;MOI= 100, mRNA= 1.50±0.08, protein=1.80 ± 0.15 ;P < 0.05). The proliferation of PANC-1 cells was suppressed significantly when transfected by Ad-PUMA in a dose-dependent manner(r = -0.986 55), which was more significant combined with radiation (r = -0.971 26, P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the apoptotie rate was increased in the same manner [for pre- and post-irradiation,which was (45.4 ± 5.26) % and (73.2 ± 6.62) %, respectively, P < 0.05]. From 7 to 35 d after PUMA gene transfection and radiotherapy, the tumor growth was significantly slower than those of irradiation group, transfection group and control group [35 d after therapy, the volume of tumor was (19.82 ± 6.45)mm3 ,(39.5 ± 9.23)mm3 , (33.6 ±3 10.3)mm3 and (52.0 ± 11.43)mm3 , respectively, P < 0.05]. And the apoptotic index was increased in the same manner (AI = 0.43 ± 0.05, 0.29 ± 0.10, 0.24 ± 0.05 and 0.00 ± 0.00, respectively, P < 0.05). Conclusions Recombinant adenoviral-mediated PUMA gene combined with irradiation could increase the cell-killing effect on pancreatic carcinoma. It is better than that of either one kind of therapy.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and therapeutic strategies of one patient with meningioangiomatosis ( MA ) complicated with intracranial aneurysm formation. Methods The clinical data of one patient with aneurysm-formed MA admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University was analyzed retrospectively. The patient received emergency craniotomy and middle cerebral artery aneurysm clipping and evacuation of intracranial hematoma. The meningeal tissue around the aneurysm was taken for pathological examination. Results Microscopy revealed meningeal thickening in the patient with MA accompanied with intracranial aneurysm. Spindle cells around the meninges and perivascular tissue of cortical hyperplasia formed an annular and fence-like structure. The results of immunohistochemistry showed the hyperplastic vessels and perivascular fibroblast like spindle cells diffuse vimentin-positive;the hyperplastic vascular endothelial cells CD99,CD34 were positive;and the residual glial cells in the lesions showed glial fibrillary acidic protein positive. Conclusion MA complicated with intracranial aneurysm is rare. The vascular condition is poor. The shape of aneurysm is irregular,and the risk of bleeding is high. Excise the involved meningeal tissue and clip the aneurysm with microsurgical operation is the resonable treatment.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and treatment strategy of brain arteriovenous malforma-tions(AVM) associated with arterial aneurysms. Methods The clinical manifestation, imaging data, treatment and out-come of the patients with AVM were retrospectively analyzed in 38(10.4%) of these 364 patients. Results Hemorrhage was the most common clinical manifestation (60.5%). The hemorrhage risk was higher in AVM associated with arterial an-eurysms than in single AVM(χ2=5.956,P<0.05). The most common type of associated aneurysms was feeding artery an-eurysm (69.4%). Hemorrhage more frequently occurred within the aneurysm.(χ2=8.869,P<0.05). The bleeding lesions and 43 associated aneurysms of the 37 patients were treated effectively by endovascular treatment and/or craniotomy. Thirty-four patients had excellent or good outcomes, six patients had complications, 3 patients had neurological deficits. Postoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) examination showed the complete disappearance of arteriovenous malformation and aneurysm in sixteen cases. Conclusions The AVM associated with aneurysms is common in patients with AVM. AVM associated with aneurysms has a higher risk of hemorrhage than single AVM. The aneurysm within AVM has a higher rate of hemorrhage. The treatment priority should be given to the bleeding lesions and aneurysms.

Objective To explore the role of the SerpinB5 and β-catenin in occurrence and development of the primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods The expressions of SerpinB5 and β-catenin protein and mRNA in carcinoma tissues and paracancerous tissues of 60 patients with primary HCC were detected by immumohistochemistry and real-time quantitative reverse transcriptional polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods. Results The positive expression rate of SerpinB5 protein and SerpinB5 mRNA in carcinoma tissues were significantly lower than those in paracancerous tissues:25.0%(15/60) vs. 63.3%(38/60) and 1.12 ± 0.43 vs. 5.19 ± 0.39, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01). The positive expression rate of β-catenin protein and β-catenin mRNA in carcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those that in paracancerous tissues: 65.0%(39/60) vs. 31.7%(19/60) and 4.23 ± 0.25 vs. 1.19 ± 0.17, and there was statistical difference (P<0.01). Decreased SerpinB5 expression was associated with higher serumα-fetoprotein level, larger tumor size, poor differentiation, advanced TNM stage, capsule invasion and tumor thrombosis (P < 0.01 or 0.05). Increased β-catenin expression was associated with poor differentiation, advanced TNM stage, capsule invasion and tumor thrombosis (P < 0.01 or < 0.05). The correlation analysis result showed that SerpinB5 had negative correlation withβ-catenin (carcinoma issues:r=-0.346, P=0.001;paracancerous tissues:r=-0.258, P = 0.024). Conclusions The abnormal expression of SerpinB5 and β-catenin may contribute to the progression and biologically malignant behavior of primary HCC, and SerpinB5 and β-catenin exists synergistic effect in the occurrence and development of primary HCC.
