Objective To observe the ultrastructural characteristics of human retinal progenitor cells cultured in vitro. Methods Six 5-month-old human fetuses(12 eyes)without eye diseases were selected. Retinal progenitor cells from the retina of one eye of each fetus were cultured in vitro,and observed by transmission electronic microscopy(TEM); while those from the other eye were directly observed by TEM. Results Abundant heterochromatin were found in the karyon of 5-month embryonic retinal neuroepithelial cells,and the figure of the karyons was irregular.A few scattered initial cells were seen in retinal neuroepithelial layer with large karyon,smooth surface,abundant euchromatin,and distinct nucleolus.The human retinal progenitor cells cultured in vitro had the same ultrastructural characteristics as the initial cells:with huge karyon which almost occupied the whole cell,little cytoplasm,distint nucleolus,abundant euchromatin,and little heterochromatin.The cells clung to each other in the neural globoid cell mass.The size of the outer cells was large,and karyokinesis could be found. Conclusion The cultured human retinal progenitor cells are provided with the same ultrastructure characteristics as the initial cells.

Objective To evaluate the validity and reliability of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in preoperative TNM staging judgment of rectal carcinoma. Methods Three hundred and one patients with rectal carcinoma were diagnosed and treated consecutively in Colorectal and Anal Surgery Department of Shanxi Province Tumor Hospital from January 2009 to December 2009. The clinical data of these patients were analyzed retrospectively. The diagnosis results were compared between the preoperative MSCT staging and the postoperative pathological staging,the ROC curve and the diagnostic concordance test were analyzed by software Medcalc 11.2. Results The sensitivity, specificity, Kappa value, area under the curve of TNM staging were 64.7% ,96. 8% ,0. 667,0. 808 for T2 staging tumors; 93.8% ,75.0% ,0.709,0.844 for T3 staging tumors;87. 8% ,98. 1% ,0. 859,0. 929 for T4 staging tumors; 72. 0% ,91.2% ,0. 619,0. 816 for N staging tumors;92. 7%, 99. 7%, 0. 925,0. 963 for M staging tumors respectively. Conclusion The diagnostic value of independent use of MSCT in estimating the infiltration degree and lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer is very poor and cannot be used in preoperative staging judgment.

Objective:To screen the plasma microRNAs( miRNAs) of differential expression in a high fat diet-induced insulin resistance in mouse models;further investigations on the mice with insulin resistance treated by TLR4 inhibitors TAK-242,and to study the changes of plasma miRNAs expression profile and the relationship among TLR4, miRNAs and high fat diet-induced insulin resistance. Methods:The plasma samples were from 3 mouse groups of previous study,namely,the control group with general basic diet ( low fat diet,LFD) ,TLR4 inhibitors TAK-242 treatment group with a high fat diet ( HFD-T) and the high fat diet control group( HFD-C) . The differential expressed miRNAs was screened by expression profiling of plasma miRNAs, which was detected using mouse miRNA microarray. The quantitative Real-Time PCR ( qRT-PCR ) was used to verify the results of microarray. The target genes of differential expressed miRNAs were predicted in TLR4 signaling pathway using bioinformatics methods,and the GO and KEGG database molecular annotation system were used to investigate the main effects of the miRNAs targeted genes on the biological functions or signal pathway. Results:The screening results of miRNA microarray chip showed that,comparing miRNAs expression between HFD group and LFD control group,185 miRNAs were significant in the high fat diet group,including 6 up-regulated and 179 down-regulated miRANs. A significant difference of miRANs was also found between HFD-T group and LFD control group,the total number of differential expression miRNAs was 171,and all of them were down-regulated. Comparing miRNAs expression between HFD-C group and HFD-T group,13
miRNAs were significant in HFD-T group,all of them were down-regulated. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that a total of 10 in-teraction proteins with TLR4 were predicted;the difference of mmu-miR-3095-3p,mmu-miR-5113,mmu-miR-709 and mmu-miR-335-3p expression levels was more than 1 000 times between HFD-C group and HFD-T group,and their target genes can be found in TLR4-in-teraction protein or Toll like receptor signaling pathway;GO and KEGG analysis showed 74% of these target genes belonged to the biological processes genes, and the transcription factors accounted for 82%. The expression of mmu-miR-3095-3p, mmu-miR-5113, mmu-miR-709 and mmu-miR-335-3p detected by qRT-PCR exhibited the similar patterns of down regulation to those shown in microarray results. Conclusion:When insulin resistance occurs,there is a change in plasma miRNAs expression profile,this change is associated with TLR4 and its signaling pathways. The finding enrichs the possible mechanisms of insulin resistance and provides a basis for finding miRNAs diagnostic markers for early diagnosis of insulin resistance.

SUMMARY Intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guérin ( BCG) was a common treatment for non-muscle inva-sive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. The complication of prostatic abscess was rare. We reported a case of tuberculous prostatic abscess after BCG therapy. A 65-year-old man was diagnosed as bladder cancer and accepted transurethral resection of bladder tumor ( TURBT) treatment. He received a 6-week induction course without any infection complication. Following the second BCG maintenance instillation, he complained of fever and dysuria. Transrectal ultrasound ( TRUS) demonstrated a well-defined complex mass in the right lobe of his prostate. The diagnosis of tuberculous prostatic abscess was considered after excluding other bacterial infection. The patient was treated with an anti-tuberculous regimen of isoniazid, rifampicin, and ethambutol. The symptoms were relieved after 4 weeks of anti-tuberculous therapy. Be-cause of the good response to the medicine, no further aspiration or drainage of prostatic abscess was car-ried out. The anti-tuberculous therapy had to be stopped for serious drug induced liver injury after 6 weeks of anti-tuberculous therapy. Eight weeks later of stopping anti-tuberculous therapy, the follow-up TRUS showed the disappearance of the prostatic abscess and the test of his liver function was normal. Considering the virulence of BCG is weaker than that of common tuberclebacillus, the shorter course of anti-tuberculous therapy maybe an alternative choice, and surgical drainage is not always necessary.
