Objective To study the CT and MRI features of meningiomas at special locations.Methods CT and MRI findings of meningiomas at special locations (lateral ventricle,diaphragma sellae,frontal sinus) in 11 cases confirmed by pathology were analyzed retrospectively.8 patients were evaluated with MRI,3 patients were evaluated with CT.Results 11 cases were all singular lesion.The lesions were at lateral ventricle in 4, at diaphragma sellae in 4,at frontal sinus in 3.Of total 11 cases,8 cases showed isointensity or slight hypointensity signal on T 1WI ,tumors had isointensity or slight hyperintensity signal or slight hypointensity signal on T 2WI,homogeneous or inhomogeneous enhancement were found on Gd-DTPA enhanced MRI scanning.3 cases were showed homogeneous density or slight highly density on plain CT scanning.Pathological diagnosis was as follows:fibroblastic type in 4,angioblastic type in 3,syncytial type in 1,psammomatous type in 3.There were 9 cases were misdiagnosed before operation.Conclusion It is a fact that improving the imaging correct diagnostic rate of meningioma at special locations will play an important role in deciding correct operative route of entry and increasing cure rate.

Objective To investigate the expressions of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer molecule CD147 and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein in gastric cancer and their relationship with the pathological behavior and prognosis.Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of CD147 and EGFR protein in 63 cases of gastric cancer and 40 cases of paracancerous normal tissues.The study was also combined with analysis of the pathological behavior and clinical follow-up survey of gastric cancer.Results The positive expression rates of CD147 and EGFR protein in gastric cancer were 77.8% (49/63) and 42.9% (27/63),respectively,which were higher than those in paracancerous normal tissues 25.0% and 0 (x2 =27.851,P =0.000;x2 =23.233,P =0.000).In gastric cancer,the expressions of CD147 and EGFR were closely related to the depth invasion (x2 =5.992,P =0.014;x2 =13.148,P =0.000),TNM stages (.x2 =8.481,P=0.004;x2=14.589,P=0.000),lymph node metastasis (x2 =5.270,P=0.022;x2=20.261,P =0.000) and prognosis of patients (x2 =5.606,P =0.018;x2 =4.982,P =0.026).The expression of CD147 was also significantly correlated with Ki-67 expression (x2 =10.481,P =0.001).CD147 expression was positively correlated with EGFR expression(r =0.309,P =0.014).Conclusion The expressions of CD147 and EGFR are closely related to carcinogenesis,metastasis and survival time of gastric cancer.Detecting the expressions of CD147 and EGFR may be prognostic indicators of gastric cancer.

Objective To examine the distribution and expression of dentin matrix protein1 ( DMP1 ) in the condylar cartilage and subchondral bone of osteoporosis rats. Methods Female Sprague-Dawley rats aged 6 months (n=30)wererandomlydividedinto3groups. TheShamgroupunderwentshamoperationonly(n=10),theOVX group ( n = 10 ) received a bilateral ovariectomy first and then saline solution treatment subcutaneously for 3 months. The RIS group ( n=10 ) also received a bilateral ovariectomy and then with risedronate treatment ( 2. 4μg/kg) subcutaneously for 3 months. Three months after the operation, the animals were sacrificed. Toluidine blue staining showed the structure changes of rat condylar cartilage region. The changes of osteoclasts in the bony subcondylar region were evaluated by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase ( TRAP) staining. The expression of DMP1 was analyzed immunohistochemically and then performed by semi-quantitative imaging analyses. Results Toluidine blue staining showed a thickened hypertrophic layers of condylar cartilage in RIS group. The results of TRAP staining indicated that the number of osteoclasts was significantly greater in OVX group than RIS group (P<0. 05). Immunohistochemistry showed that DMP1 localized mainly in the chondrogenic layers and osteocytes, bony subcondylar region in three groups. The expression levels of DMP1 proteins statistically decreased in OVX group than the other two groups(both P<0. 05). Conclusion Bisphophonates may reduce the the number of osteoclasts in the condyle from osteoporosis rats, with increasing of the expression of DMP1, which may influences condylar cartilage biomineralization.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The number of apoptotic cels in rat condylar cartilage and subcondylar region: the sham operation group < the treatment group < the model group (alP< 0.05). (2)Expression of Bcl-2: The trend of the model group was lower than that in the sham operation group, although there was no statisticaly significant difference between the two groups; Bcl-2 expression in the treatment group was statisticaly higher compared to the model group (P< 0.05).(3)Expression of Bax and Caspase-3: The expression levels of Bax and Caspase-3 were higher in the model group than in the sham operation group (alP< 0.05), while Bax and Caspase-3 expression was lower in the treatment group than that in the model group (alP< 0.05). The results suggested that bisphophonates can regulate apoptosis in condylar cartilage from osteoporosis rats by changing the expression of Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase-3.

Objective To explore the effects of Shuxuening injection on cerebral edema and changes of neurological function induced by focal cerebral ischemia.Methods90 Wistar rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group, model group, Shuxuening 1st group, Shuxuening 2nd group and Shuxuening 3rd group with 18 animals in each group. The model of focal cerebral ischemia was established by the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Shuxuening of different doses was infused into muscle respectively in the different group (1 mg/kg in Shuxuening 1st group, 3 mg/kg in Shuxuening 2nd group, 10 mg/kg in Shuxuening 3rd group; the model group infused with saline). The changes of the neurological function, water content of brain tissue and volume of cerebral infarction were determined 24 hours after cerebral ischemia. The activity of lactate (LA), malondialdegyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the brain tissue were measured.ResultsAfter MCAO, the disturbance of neurological function and severe cerebral edema were found in model rats. The water content of brain tissue and volume of cerebral infarction decreased, neurological function improved, the activity of SOD significantly increased, and the contents of LA and MDA significantly decrease after Shuxuening injection with a dose-dependent change.ConclusionThe Shuxuening injection (≥3 ml/kg) presents a protective effect on brain tissue with focal cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate the effect of at-RA in macrophage accumulation in tubulointerstitium of rats with renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis.Methods Unilateral ureteral obstructive(UUO) rat animal models were used for the study.40 SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham group,UUO group,benazepril group,low-dose at-RA groups and high-dose at-RA groups.The rats were under intragastric administration by benazepril(10mg/(kg?d)) in benazepril group,and by(at-RA)(10mg/(kg?d)) in low-dose at-RA group and 20mg/(kg?d) in high-dose at-RA group and by sodium chloride in tales doses in sham group and UUO group from the day before the operation to 14 day after operation.Immunohistochemistry staining of CD68 and Col Ⅲ was used to define the macrophage accumulation and expression of interstitial Col Ⅲ.The degree of tubulointerstitial damage was scored by HE and Masson staining.Results Tubulointerstitial macrophage infiltration were all significantly reduced by(at-RA) or benazepril treatment.They also improved the histological changes of UUO rats and inhibited interstitial colⅢ deposition.Conclusion Reduction of interstitial macrophage infiltration may be an important event by which(at-RA) or benazepril prevents renal injury caused by UUO.
