The over-activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mechanistic target of rapamcyin (mTOR) pathway is closely related to the occurrence, development and clinical prognosis of malignant tumors. Taking this signal pathway as a target can effectively inhibit tumor progression. At present, the Food and Drug Administration of the United States has approved three drugs (CAL-101, BAY80-6946, IPI-145) for the treatment of recurrent and refractory indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which demonstrates significant efficacy and a manageable safety profile.

BACKGROUND: Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been used in the field of repair of nerve injury. Brain stereotactic transplantation and transvascular transplantation are two transplantation methods. OBJECTIVE: We infused MSCs into rat peripheral cerebral infarct focus, in order to investigate the improvement of rat neurological dysfunction by forelimb use asymmetry test and postural reflex test.DESIGN: A randomized controlled animal experiment. SETTING: Department of Neurology, First Hospital of Jilin University.MATERIALS: This study was performed at the Key Laboratory of Zoonosis, Ministry of Education, Institute of Zoonosis, Jilin University between October 2006 and April 2007. Healthy male Wistar rats of clean grade, weighing 250-280 g, were provided by the Laboratory Animal Center of Jilin University. The protocol was performed in accordance with ethical guidelines for the use and care of animals.METHODS: MSCs from healthy adult volunteers were in vitro cultured and proliferated by density gradient separation and adherence screening method. Their immunophenotypes were identified by a flow cytometer. The Wistar rats were randomized into 5 groups with 10 rats in each: normal control group, sham-operated group, model group, serum-free DMEM-treated group (DMEM group) and MSCs -treated group (MSCs group). Rat models of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion were developed by occluding rat right middle cerebral artery following suture occlusion method modified by Longa et al. Rats in the normal control group were untouched. In the sham-operated group, operation was not ended till cervical interior and exterior arteries were exposed and sutured, and the other disposals were the same as those in the model group. At ischemia 90 minutes reperfusion 1 hour, a stereotaxic apparatus was used to take rat right peripheral cerebral ischemic region as transplantation site: 3 mm lateral to, 1mm caudal to and 4 mm posterior to Bregma. Rats in the MSCs group were slowly injected 5 μL BrdU-labeled MSCs (4×1011 L-1) serum-free medium. Rats in the DMEM group were injected 5 μL serum-free medium. After perfusion, inserted needle was retained for 5 minutes and then slowly withdrawn in order to avoid the back flow of liquid from needle pole. The survival of MSCs in rats was detected by immunohistochemical technique, and rat behavioral changes of observed on days1, 3, 7 and 28 after transplantation by forelimb use asymmetry test and postural reflex test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The immunophenotype of MSCs were identified by a flow cytometer. ② The survival of transplanted MSCs in the rat brain. ③ Rat behavioral changes. RESULTS: All the 50 rats were included in the final analysis. ① High purity of MSCs were harvested in the experiment. Flow cytometer detection showed that both CD44 and CD29 were positive, while CD34, CD45 and CD31 were negative. ② MSCs transplanted into the brains of rats in the MSCs group gathered in the peripheral cerebral ischemic region and survived. ③ Behavioral scores of rats in the MSCs group were significantly lower than those in the other groups (P < 0.05). They were gradually decreased with time after transplantation, and reached the valley value on day 7 after transplantation (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Neurological function of rats recovers in all the groups except normal control group. But the recovery differs in different groups, and neurological function of rats in the MSCs group recovers better than that in other groups.

Objective:To investigate the effect of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cytoskeleton rearrangement of renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods:Immortalized renal tubular epithelial cell line NRK52E was cultured in vitro with IL-1β (30 μg/L) for 3 days and 6 days,then the cell morphology was observed;The mRNA expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA),cytoskeleton components β-actin and α-tubulin were semi-quantitative examined by RT-PCR.The protein expression of α-SMA and arrangements of β-actin and α-tubulin were assessed by immunofluorescent staining.Results:After induced by IL-1β for 3 days and 6 days in vitro,the mRNA and protein expression of α-SMA increased significantly compared with corresponding control cells (P<0.001),it prompted that NRK52E cells underwent EMT;At the same time,the cell morphology also changed,from a typical multilateral paving stone to fibroblast-like appearance,with multiple processes; Cytoskeletal protein β-actin mRNA expression was also slightly increased (P<0.05).The distributions and arrangements of β-actin protein were also changed,from cell membrane transferred to peri-nucleus and cytoplasm,moreover it formed fiber bundle-like structures.However,another cytoskeleton protein α-tubulin in IL-1β induced cells,neither it's mRNA expression nor it's distribution had significant differences compared with the control group.Conclusion:IL-1β can induce NRK52E cells undergoing EMT in vitro,cell morphology changes into fibroblast-like appearance with multiple processes,and also the cytoskeleton protein β-actin expression increases and rearrangement occurrs.However,there was no changes onα-tubulin.

Objective To observe the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb) on intestinal function after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. Methods 36 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into group A (n=12), group B (n=12) and group C (n=12). SCI model was established with Allen's mode (10 g×25 mm) at T10. 30 minutes later, group A was intraperitoneally injected with methylprednisolone 30 mg/kg every 24 hours; group B was injected with Shuxuening injection (EGb) 1.75 mg/kg every 24 hours; group C were injected with equal volume of saline. The slow wave of intestinal smooth muscle was measured, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum were determined 1 day, 3 days and 7 days after modeling, while intestinal tissue was tested with HE staining. Results The amplitude and frequency of the myoelectric slow wave increased in the groups A and B 3 and 7 days after modeling compared with those in the group C (P<0.05); meanwhile, the activity of SOD increased and content of MDA decreased in the groups A and B (P<0.05). The HE scores decreased in the groups A and B compared with those in the group C (P<0.05), which presented that the inflammatory exudation was mild, the hemorrhagic spot was few and the area was limited. The intestinal villous of the group C was blunt with large infiltration of inflammatory cells and inflammatory exudate on the mucosal surface. Conclusion EGb can improve the recovery of intestinal function in rats spinal cord injury through antioxidant.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic significance of D-dimer level in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:The clinical data of 70 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients who were admitted to Tianjin People's Hospital from January 2015 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value of D-dimer for survival was determined according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the patients were grouped. The differences of coagulation related indexes and clinicopathological features between patients with different D-dimer levels were compared. Kaplan-Meier method was used for univariate analysis of overall survival (OS), and Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis of OS.Results:According to ROC curve, the best cut-off value of D-dimer for survival was 0.75 mg/L. The proportion of patients with different clinical staging, international prognostic index score, lactate dehydrogenase level had statistically significant differences between the D-dimer ≥0.75 mg/L group (36 cases) and <0.75 mg/L group (34 cases) (all P < 0.05). The prothrombin time of D-dimer ≥ 0.75 mg/L group and < 0.75 mg/L group were (13.5±0.9) s and (13.0±0.8) s, respectively, and the activated partial thromboplastin time were (37±5) s and (34±6) s, respectively,and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the 5-year OS rates of DLBCL patients with Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, international prognostic index score > 2, lactate dehydrogenase level > 240 U/L, B symptoms, D-dimer level ≥0.75 mg/L were decreased (all P < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that D-dimer ≥0.75 mg/L was an independent risk factor for OS of DLBCL patients ( HR=0.368, 95% CI 0.144-0.944, P= 0.038). Conclusion:The level of D-dimer can be used as a clinical indicator to judge the prognosis of DLBCL patients, and the prognosis of patients with high D-dimer level is poor.

Objective To explore the MRI diagnosis characteristics of reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 12 cases of RESLES was analyzed retrospectively.MRI plain scan and DWI of brain were performed in all the cases.Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value was obtained through post-processing function.Results 8 of 12 cases were children and 4 were adults.The splenium of corpus callosum of 12 cases showed round lesions,with slightly long T1 and slightly long T2 signal on MRI,high signal on DWI,and low signal on ADC map.The mean value of ADC of 12 cases was about 0.43× 10-3 mm2/s.The MRI reexamination was made after treatment in 12 cases,which showed the lesion of splenium of corpus callosum disappeared,and clinical syndromes were improved.Conclusion The MRI manifestation of RESLES is characterized by solitary lesion.The ADC value could accurately reflect the molecular diffusion information of the lesion.

Objective To investigate the influencing factor of the morphology of unruptured intracranial aneurysms for aneurysm wall enhancement under the high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging. Methods From January 2015 to December 2016,the clinical and imaging data of 68 consecutive patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysm (86 aneurysms) in Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. Vascular wall imaging technology was used to conduct aneurysm scan,and the aneurysm wall enhancement was identified by the imaging features before and after contrast enhancement. They were divided into either an enhancement group ( n=32,34 aneurysms) or a non-enhancement group (n=45,52 aneurysms) according to whether having the abnormal enhancement of aneurysm wall or not ( because some patients also have enhanced aneurysms and non-enhanced aneurysms, the number of cases of the enhanced or not was calculated seperately in both groups ) . Morphological parameters were calculated by 3D image data,including aneurysm size,ratio of height to width,volume ratio, dome-to-neck ratio, transverse length ratio, bottleneck factor, and inflow angle. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to determine the morphological influence factors of aneurysm wall enhancement. Results (1) A total of 34 (39. 5%) aneurysms had aneurysm wall enhancement and 52 (60. 5％) aneurysms did not have aneurysm wall enhancement. There were no significant differences in sex, age, hypertension,diabetes, smoking, family history of subarachnoid hemorrhage, and aneurysm site in both groups (all P>0. 05). (2) The aneurysm size,ratio of height to width,volume ratio,dome-to-neck ratio, and bottleneck factor in the enhancement group were larger than those of the non-enhancement group. There were significant differences between the 2 groups (9. 19 [6. 54,11. 04] mm vs. 5. 31 [4. 17,7. 37] mm, (1. 18 [1. 01,1. 69] vs. 0. 91 [0. 72,1. 25],(3. 62 [2. 30,4. 63] vs. 2. 18 [1. 37,2. 76],1. 52 [1. 25, 1. 99] vs. 1. 19 [1. 03,1. 51],and 1. 21 [1. 11,1. 69] vs. 1. 05 [0. 94,1. 31],all P<0. 01). The proportion of irregular morphologic aneurysms in the enhancement group was higher than that in the non-enhancement group. There was significant difference between the 2 groups (55. 9％ [19/34] vs. 17. 3％ [9/52],P<0. 01 ) . There were no significant differences in transverse length ratio and inflow angle between the 2 groups (all P>0. 05). (3) Because the ratio of height to width,volume ratio,dome-to-neck ratio,and bottleneck factor were related to the aneurysm size,the aneurysm size,inflow angle,and irregular shape were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. The results showed that aneurysm size ( OR,3. 727,95％CI 1. 933-6. 971,P<0. 01) and irregular shape (OR,3. 990,95％CI 1. 219-13. 065,P=0. 022) were the independent risk factors for aneurysm wall enhancement. Conclusions The size and irregular shape of unruptured intracranial aneurysms are the independent risk factors for aneurysm wall enhancement. High-resolution magnetic resonance wall imaging may become an effective and noninvasive imaging method for evaluating the ruptured risk of intracranial aneurysms.
