The Journal of Practical Medicine 2014;(6):900-902
Objective To investigate the influence of intravenous thrombolysis to acute cerebral infarction with cerebral microbleeds (CMB). Methods Eight-nine patients with cerebral infarction in the Neurological Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical College from January 1st , 2011 to December 31st, 2012 were enrolled in this study. All patients were scanned with MRI and GRE. According to the presence of CMB, the patients were classified into two groups, including CMB group and non-CMB group. Past history of smoking, drinking, hypertension, lacunar infarction, diabetes and leukoaraiosis situation were recorded and risk factors of CMB were explored. All patients were treated with intravenous thrombolysis and rescanned with MRI to compare the total number of CMB 24 hours after thrombolysis. Results In the CMB group, the number of patients with mild CMB decreased and the number of patients with serious CMB increased after thrombolysis. CMB was associated with sex, age, hypertension, lacunar infarction and leukoaraiosis. Conclusions Sex, age, hypertension, lacunar infarction and leukoaraiosis were the risk factors of CMB in acute cerebral infarction. Thrombolysis in acute cerebral infarction augments the incidence of CMB and promotes the hemorrhagic transformation.

Phospho-histone H2AX(γH2AX) has been widely used in vitro genotoxicity evaluation of ionizing radiation, carcinogenic substances and cigarette smoke as an important biomarker of DNA double stranded breaks ( DSBs) . The study developed an enzyme-linked immunesorbent assay for detection of the content ofγH2AX in cells to evaluate the genotoxicity of cigarette smoke. The study exposed CHO cells with cigarette smoke total particulate matter ( TPM) and cigarette smoke condensate ( CSC) of different dose, dose-effect relationship between smoke exposure and DNA damage and the poisonous difference of cigarette smoke components has been investigated by detecting the content change ofγH2 AX in cells under different exposure time and dose. In addition, reactive oxygen species ( ROS) in cells were also detected to study the mechanism of cigarette smoke exposure induced DSBs. The experiment result showed that the required time for the level ofγH2AX in cells grew to the peak prolonged with increased exposure dose. Once the level of γH2AX in cells grew to the peak value, then it decreased slowly; the level of γH2AX in cells rised with increasing dose of cigarette smoke;The effect of TPM on the content change of γH2AX was more than CSC; Moreover, smoke exposure could induce concentration increase of ROS in cells, and a good correlation of content change of ROS and γH2AX in cells were found, free radicals in cigarette smoke may be one major cause of DSBs.

The cytoplasmic and nuclear changes during the development of goat oocytes were studied with light and electron microscopy. The oocyte development may be divided into 8 stages in accordance with the number and distribution of follicle cells and the size of the follicle. The results indicated that the Golgi complex, mitochondria, smooth endoplasmic reticulum and cortical granules became well developed and they moved into the cortical region as the oocyte development proceeded. In the oocytes in the follicle of 1.5-3mm in diameter, all the mitochondria became hooded and the number and size of fibrillar centers in the nucleolus reached maximum, but the nucleolar compaction still not occured at this stage. By the time when the follicle reached 3.5-5mm in diameter, the follicular cell processes began to degenerate, the microvilli of the oocyte withdrew from the zona pellueida and the oocytes might be cultured to mature in vitro. In the mature oocytes, Golgi complex and rough endoplasmic reticulum disappeared, the cortical granules arranged themselves in one layer beneath the oolemma, the mitochondria dispersed in the central region of cytoplasm and the eggs were ready for fertilization.
