Objective To study the clinicopathologic features of brain tumors in patients with medically intractable epilepsy. Methods The clinical, radiologic and pathologic features of brain tumors in thirty-six patients with intractable epilepsy encountered during the period from 2008 to 2014 in the Epilepsy Center of Haidian Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Results There were 18 males and 18 females in thirty-six patients. The mean age of seizure onset and disease duration were (14.05 ± 1.67) years and (10.04 ± 1.19) years respectively. The histological types of brain tumors included ganglioglioma (12/36, WHO gradeⅠ,1/36, WHO gradeⅡ), dysembryeplastic neuroepithelial tumor (2/36, WHO gradeⅠ), pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (1/36, WHO gradeⅡ), angiocentric glioma (1/36, WHO gradeⅠ), astrocytoma (4/36, WHO gradeⅡ), oligoastrocytoma (1/36, WHO gradeⅡ, 2/36, WHO gradeⅠ-Ⅱ), oligodendroglioma (1/36, WHO gradeⅠ-Ⅱ,1/36, WHO grade Ⅱ), cavernous hemangioma (4/36) and Sturge-Weber syndrome (1/36). Most of these tumors were located in temporal lobe (25/36, 69.4%). Patients were followed up for 0.5-7 years after operation. One patient was lost for follow up. Seizure outcome after the epilepsy operation revealed that 28 patients (77.8%) had Engel gradeⅠ, 4 patients (11.1%) had Engel gradeⅡ,2 patients (5.6%) had Engel gradeⅢ,1 patient (2.8%) had Engel gradeⅣ. Conclusion Brain tumors in patients with medically intractable epilepsy are almost low grade tumors of the nervous system. Focal cortical dysplasia is existed in most brain tissues from the epilepsy operation. Low grade tumors of the nervous system have close relation with focal cortical dysplasia in patients with medically intractable epilepsy. It is possible that the classifications of pathology diagnosis has connection with prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclldine hydrochloride postconditioning on hind limb ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Methods One hundred and forty-four male Wistar rats weighing 220-250 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 36 each): control group (group C), I/R group, ischemic postconditioning group (group IPO) and penehyclidine hydrochloride postconditioning group (group PHPO). Limb ischemia was induced by occlusion of bilateral hind limb for 3 h followed by 24 h reperfusion. In group IPO, the animals were subjected to three cycles of 30 s reperfusion and 30 s ischemia on the proximal part of the hind limb,while in group PHPO, the animals received iv injection of penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.15 mg/kg (in normal saline 1 wl) via the caudal vein immediately after reperfusion. Blood samples from the inferior vena cava were taken for determination of activities of serum LDH and CK and concentrations of TNF-α and IL-10 at O, 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h of reperfusion. Then 6 rats were sacrificed at each time point respectively and the quadriceps femoris tissues of the hind limb were removed for determination of MDA content, activities of SOD, MPO, Na+ -K+-ATPase and Ca2 + - Mg2+ -ATPase, and HIF- 1 α expression and microscropic examination. Results Compared with group C, the activities of serum LDH and CK and concentrations of TNF-α and IL-10 were significantly increased, the activities of SOD, Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase were decreased, MPO activities and MDA content were increased, HIF-1α expression was up-regulated in group I/R, IPO and PHPO (P ＜0.05 or 0.01). Compared with group I/R, the serum activities of serum LDH and CK and TNF-α concentration were significantly decreased, IL- 10concentration was increased, activities of SOD, Na+ -K+ -ATPase and Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase were increased, and MPO activity and MDA content were decreased, HIF-1α expression was down-regulated (P ＜ 0.01), and the pathologic changes was reduced in group IPO and PHPO. Compared with group IPO, the serum LDH activity and TNF-α concentration were significantly decreased, CK activity and IL-10 concentration were increased, activities of SOD and MPO and MDA content were decreased and HIF-1α expression was down-regulated (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion Penehyclidine hydrochloride postconditioning can reduce hind limb I/R injury in rats, and the mechanism is related to inhibiting inflammatory response and lipid peroxidation, reducing calcium overload and improving cellular energy metabolism.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic features of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).

METHODSThe clinicopathologic data of the patients diagnosed as TSC with refractory epilepsy and resection of epileptic focus were retrospectively analyzed.

RESULTSFourteen cases were included, the mean age was (15.8±12.9) years, with a male predominance (male to female ratio=10:4). Frontal lobe was the most common (13/14) site of involvement. MRI showed multiple patchy long T1 and long T2 signals. CT images showed multiple subependymal high density calcified nodules in nine cases. Histology showed mild to severe disruption of the cortical lamination, cortical and subcortical tubers with giant cells and/or dysmorphic neurons. The giant cells showed strong immunoreactivity for vimentin and nestin, while the dysmorphic neurons partially expressed MAP2 and NF. Vimentin also stained strongly the "reactive" astrocytes. Thirteen cases had follow-up information: Engel class I in six cases, Engel class II in six cases, and Engel class III in one case.

CONCLUSIONSDiagnosis of TSC relies on combined pathologic, clinical and neuroradiological features. Immunohistochemical staining can be helpful. Resection of epileptic focus is an effective method to treat refractory epilepsy in TSC.

OBJECTIVETo study the changes of serum complement C and immunoglobulin (Ig) in sensitized guinea pigs exposed to trichloroethylene.

METHODSThirty six white female guinea pigs (250 ∼ 300 g) were randomly divided into blank control group (5 guinea pig), solvent (olive oil) control group (5 guinea pig) and TCE treatment group (26 guinea pig). According to guinea pig maximization test (GPMT), guinea pigs were exposed to TCE. After stimulating contact for 24 h, the skin reactions of guinea pig back test area were recorded and scored. According to Skin sensitization integral, the guinea pigs treated with TCE were divided into the sensitized group (score ≥ 1) and un-sensitized group (score 0). The concentrations of serum C3, C4, IgA, IgG and IgM were detected in 24 and 72 h, respectively after the experiment.

RESULTSThe sensitization rates of group treated by TCE was 65.38%. The serum C3 levels of groups sensitized to TCE for 24 and 73h were 99.75 ± 1.45 and 93.28 ± 3.61g/ml, respectively, which were significantly lower than that (112.30 ± 9.10 g/ml) of solvent control group (P < 0.05). Also The serum C4 levels of groups sensitized to TCE for 24 and 73 h were 34.63 ± 2.53 and 33.82 ± 2.76g/ml, respectively, which were significantly lower than that (43.87 ± 3.65 g/ml) of solvent control group (P < 0.05). The serum IgA and IgM levels of groups sensitized to TCE and unsensitized to TCE for 24 and 72 h were significantly lower than those of solvent group (P < 0.05). as compared with unsensitized groups, the serum IgA levels of the groups sensitized to TCE for 24 and 72 h significantly decreased (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAfter the guinea pig skin was sensitized to TCE, the serum C3, C4 levels decreased, the immune function disordered.
