Ovjective To observe the surgically excised specimens from eyes with hemorrhagic agerelated macular degeneration (AMD).Methods Thirty-six surgically excised specimens were captured from 36 patients with hemorrhagic AMD,26 specimens were diagnosed as occult choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM),10 specimens were diagnosed as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).All specimens were routinely processed by hematoxylin and eosin,periodic acid-Schiff's stain and Masson stainings.At the maximum horizontal and vertical slice of the specimens,the category and amount of the cells in the specimen were recorded,as well as the relationship between the specimens and the surrounding tissue.Results The 36 specimens are categorized as neovascular membrane dominant (19/36),collagen fiber dominant (6/36),blood clot dominant (8/36) and degenerated thickened Bruch's membrane dominant (3/36).Eighteen occult CNVM specimens and 1 PCV specimen are categorized as neovascular membrane dominant; all 6 collagen fiber dominant specimens are occult CNVM; 1 occult CNVM and 7 PCV specimens are categorized as blood clot dominant; and 1 occult CNVM and 2 PCV specimens are categorized as degenerated thickened Bruch's membrane dominant.The occult CNVM categorized as neovascular membrane dominant present as small blood vessel with single endothelium cell attached; the PCV specimen categorized as neovascular dominant presents as big blood vessel with thick vessel wall under the Bruch's membrane,retinal pigment epithelium and choroidal melanocyte are both observed in the PCV specimens.Conclusion The components of the specimens captured from eyes with hemorrhagic AMD are diversified.

This article analyzes the forward and backward feedback pathways between cones and horizontal cells in the Cascade model and sets up a Hopfield Network to simulate the interaction mechanism.Additionally,it appears that the phase character of horizontal cell is connected with spectrum and a CMAC Network is established to simulate the mapping process.This article aims to indicate that the mapping of horizontal cell and spectrum might be the underlying way for retina to code the signal from spectral input.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of early rehabilitation treatment on patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods Forty sTBI patients were divided into treatment group (n =20) and control group (n =20) according to the random number table.Conventional treatment was performed on all patients including dehydration to decrease intracranial pressure,hemorrhage control,neurotrophic treatment,antiinflammation therapy,and gastric acid control.In addition to these interventions,patients in treatment group received hyperbaric oxygen treatment,median nerve stimulation,fastigial nucleus stimulation,and bedside motor therapy in the early period.Intracranial pressure and partial pressure of brain tissue oxygen (PbtO2) were continuously monitored during the process of treatment.GCS was measured before and 15 days after treatment and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPE-CT) was used to evaluate cerebral perfusion.Results There was no statistical difference between the two groups with respect to GCS in advance of treatment (P ＞ 0.05),but GCS differed between treatment group and control group after treatment [(10.18 ± 3.75) points vs (8.33 ±2.36) points,P ＜0.05],with substantial improvement in treatment group.Significantly improved cerebral perfusion was seen in treatment group.On day 5 after treatment,intracranial pressure in treatment group lowered significantly compared with that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).On day 6 after treatment,PbtO2 was significantly higher in treatment group than in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Early rehabilitation treatment leads to improved outcome and acts a positive effect on nerve function recovery.

Objective To probe into the content of DNA Topo Ⅱ in osteosarcoma after chemotherapy.Methods 30 patients with osteosarcoma received two courses of chemotherapy treatment before the surgical resection of the tumor tissue.Then immunohistochemistry was used to detect the content of Topo Ⅱ in tissues and detected its relationship in pathology.Results There were 8 out of 30 cases in which Topo Ⅱ was presented positive in osteosarcoma (26.7 ％).The protein content of Topo Ⅱ was unrelated to the patient' s age,gender,degree of tumor malignancy,tumor location and translocation or Enneking staging (P ＞ 0.05),but related to patients survival rate (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Patients with lower expression of Topo Ⅱ are more likely to have poor prognosis.

Objective To explore the influences of protein kinase Cβ (PKC3) inhibitor LY333531 on oxidative injury and apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells induced by fluorosis.Methods The SH-SY5Y cell model of fluorosis was established,and the experiment was divided into three groups:control group [0.0 mmol/L sodium fluoride (NaF) and 0.0 μmol/L LY333531],the fluoride group (0.5 mmol/L NaF and 0.0 μmol/L LY333531),and the PKCβ inhibitor group (0.5 mmol/L NaF and 0.2 μmol/L LY333531),n =3.Flow cytometry was used to detect the changes of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis rate,fluorescent probe technique was used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential after each group for 48 h.Results Compared with the control group [(3.32 ± 0.29) × 103,0.60 ± 0.09,(7.58 ± 1.20)％],the level of ROS [(5.99 ± 0.32) × 103] was increased,mitochondrial membrane potential (0.28 ± 0.06) was decreased,and the apoptosis rate [(18.00 ± 2.32)％] was increased in the fluoride group (all P ＜ 0.05);compared with the fluoride group,the level of ROS [(5.12 ± 0.25) × 103] was decreased,mitochondrial membrane potential (0.42 ± 0.03) was increased,and the apoptosis rate [(11.79 ± 0.70)％] was decreased in the PKCβ inhibitor group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Excess fluoride could cause oxidative damage and apoptosis in cells.PKC3 inhibitor LY333531 has a protective effect in oxidative damage and apoptosis by fluorosis.

Objective To analyse the clinicopathological characteristics of synovial sarcoma (SS) from histomorphology,immunohistochemical (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH),and to investigate the related factors influencing the prognosis of SS patients.Methods 94 cases were collected,including 60 SS cases and 34 in dined to SS cases.The expressions of common antibodies related to the diagnosis of SS Vimentin,CD99,AE1/AE3,EMA,CD34,Calponin,Ki-67 were detected by IHC,and the SYT-SSX fusion gene was detected by FISH.The clinical pathologic factors that affecting the prognosis of patients were analyzed through the statistical method.Results The positive rates of Vimentin,CD99,AE1/AE3,EMA,CD34,Calponin,Ki-67 were 100.00 ％,74.47 ％,36.17 ％,28.72 ％,17.02 ％,90.43 ％ and 60.64 ％ respectively.FISH results showed that 81 patients were tested with SYT gene translocation,including 54 cases who were considered as SS,and 27 cases who were suspected/inclined to SS,and the number of positive cells surpassed 80 ％.The gene translocation was not related with the patient' s age,sex,tumor position,histological type,differentiation of the cancer (all P ＞ 0.05).Single factor survival analysis showed that the degree of differentiation,tumor diameter,the recurrence and metastasis had certain influences on patients' survival time (all P ＜ 0.05).Multiple factors regression analysis showed that the degree of differentiation and tumor diameter were the risk factors influencing the prognosis of SS (risk coefficients ＞ 1,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions IHC combined with FISH SYT-SSX fusion gene detection have the vital significance in the diagnosis of SS.The degree of differentiation and tumor size are the risk factors influencing the prognosis of SS.

Obje:ctive To establish an optimized method to isolate, culture and identify human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) in vitro and induce their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. Methods The hUCMSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord by digestion with collagenase. After serial subcultivation in vitro, the stem cells were passaged. Morphologic appearance of hUCMSCs was observed under an optical microscope and atomic force microscope. The proliferation rate was measured by MTT assay. Cell cycle and surface antigens were measured by flow cytometry. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation was tested and evaluated by specific staining methods. Results The isolation of hUCMSCs by digestion with collagenase was efficient. After seeded for 24 hours, the adherent cells showed spindle shape and fibroblast cell-like shape and the size of hUCMSCs was homogeneous. The similar growth curves of passage 3 and 7 exhibited a great potential for proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that CD29, CD44 and CD105 were highly expressed on the surface of passages 3 cells, but the expression was negative for CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR. After culture in inducing medium, the cells were successfully induced into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. These cells were highly positive for alkaline phosphate staining and also showed mineralization presented with von kossa staining after 4 weeks' culture induction of osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, liquid vacuoles were detected by oil red O staining after 3 weeks' culture induction of adipogenic differentiation. Conclusion An in vitro method for isolation and purification of hUCMSCs from human umbilical cord has been established. The cultured cells were composed of only undifferentiated cells and their biological properties were stable. The hUCMSCs are expected to be a new type of stem cells of tissue engineering.

Aim To investigate the effect of intestinal cholesterol absorption inhibitor Ezetimibe on lipid accumulation in RAW264.7 cells and identify the underlying mechanism.Method RAW264.7 cells were pretreated with the indicated concentrations of Ezetimibe (0,0.003,0.01 and 0.03 mol·L~(-1))for 24 hours or pretreated with the optimal concentration(0.03 mol·L~(-1))of Ezetimibe for different periods (0,6,12 and 24 h),followed by incubation with 50 mg·L~(-1) oxLDL for 24 hours,then the number of intracellular lipid droplets and lipid content were measured by using oil red O staining and HPLC; the expression of NPC1L1 was measured by Western blot.Results Pretreatment with indicated concentrations of Ezetimibe caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of intracellular lipid accumulation;pretreatment with 0.03 mol·L~(-1) Ezetimibe caused a time-dependent inhibition of intracellular lipid accumulation.It was noted that pretreatment with 0.03 mol·L~(-1) Ezetimibe for 24 hours inhibited CE by about 47%+0.1% compared with control group(oxLDL alone).Immunoblotting results showed that NPC1L1 was expressed in RAW264.7 cells and it was down-regulated after Ezetimibe treatment.Conclusions Ezetimibe causes concentration-dependent and time-dependent inhibition of lipid accumulation in RAW264.7 cells;it also reduces NPC1L1 expression in RAW264.7 cells.
