ABSTRACT:Objective To study the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway in the epilepsy model of hippocampal neurons and the regulatory effect of on it.Methods The primary hippocampal neurons cultured in vitro for 7 days were randomly divided into seven groups:control group,epilepsy group,control+BDNF group,epilepsy+BDNF group,control + miR-185 ? group,epilepsy + miR-185 ? group,and epilepsy + miR-185 ? + BDNF group.We constructed miR-185 ? lentivirus vector and observed the changes of BDNF/TrkB pathway expression after transfaction of miR-185 ? by immunohistochemistry,patch clamp technique and Western blot technique.Results Compared with the control+BDNF group,the phosphorylated TrkB (pTrkB)/TrkB value was significantly lower in epilepsy+BDNF group (P < 0.05 )and control group (P < 0.001 ).Compared with the epilepsy group,the phosphorylated TrkB (pTrkB)/TrkB value was significantly higher in epilepsy+BDNF group (P <0.05).Compared with the epilepsy+miR-185 ? +BDNF group,the phosphorylated TrkB (pTrkB)/TrkB value was significantly lower in epilepsy + BDNF group and epilepsy + miR-185 ? group (P < 0.001 ).BDNF could promote the signaling conduction and miR-185 ? could remove the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signaling.Conclusion BDNF can activate the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway and transfection with miR-185 ? can relieve the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway of epileptic state by up-regulating the expression of TrkB.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of endooscopic minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy in the treatment of esophageal carcinoma. Methods From June 2012 to August 2015, the data of 180 patients with esophageal carcinoma was retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into endoscopy McKeown esophagectomy group (EME group) and open McKeown esophagectomy group (OME group), each group had 90 patients. The clinical pathological data, perioperative data and postoperative complications between the two groups were analyzed. Results The operation time in EME group was longer than that in OME group [(289 ± 30) min vs. (252 ± 28) min, t= 8.063, P< 0.05]. The intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood loss on the first day after operation in EME group were less than those in OME group [(178.94 ± 47.84) ml vs. (323.44 ± 59.51) ml, t=17.952, P<0.05; (220.93 ± 49.07) ml vs. (362.59 ± 68.37) ml, t= -15.968, P< 0.05]. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the number of lymph node dissection (t= -1.913), postoperative hospitalization days (χ2= 4.858) and postoperative complications (exact probability method) (all P> 0.05). Conclusions Endoscopic minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy has the same effect as open surgery, and trauma is small. Therefore, for the patients who are suitable for the minimally invasive surgery, it can be preferred.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) regulated by differ-ent isoforms of tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) in epileptic hippocampal neurons. Methods Primary hippocampal neu-rons were cultured in vitro for 7 days, and divided into two groups, ALLN (calcineurin inhibitor) group and Anisomycin (trans-lation inhibitor) group. ALLN group included control group, control+BDNF group, epilepsy group, epilepsy+BDNF group, control+ALLN group, epilepsy+ALLN group and epilepsy+ALLN+BDNF group. Anisomycin group was sub-divided into con-trol group, control+BDNF group, epilepsy group, epilepsy+BDNF group, control+Anisomycin group, epilepsy+Anisomycin group and epilepsy+Anisomycin+BDNF group. The immunofluorescent technique was used to identificate the hippocampal neurons. Epileptiform discharges were detected by electrophysiological techniques. Western blot assay was used to deter-mine the protein expression of TrkB and phosphorylated TrkB (p-TrkB) in all cell groups. Results (1) In ALLN group, the gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in control+BDNF group compared with that of control group, the value was higher in epilepsy+BDNF group than that of epilepsy group but was lower than that of control+BDNF group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was lower in epilepsy+ALLN+BDNF group than that of epilepsy+BDNF group, but no significant difference compared with that of epilepsy+ALLN group. (2) In Anisomycin group:the gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in control+BDNF group than that of control group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in epilepsy+BDNF group than that of epilepsy group, but which was lower than that of control+BDNF group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in epilepsy+Aniso-mycin+BDNF group than that of epilepsy+BDNF group and epilepsy+Anisomycin group. Conclusion The decreased ex-pression of TrkB.T can improve the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signaling, and BDNF can activate BDNF/TrkB signal pathway in epileptic hippocampal neurons. The increased TrkB.FL protein level by ALLN can’t improve the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signal pathway.

Objective To study the effect of miR-204 on BDNF/TrkB signaling and pathogenesis on the neuron model of epilepsy. Methods Primary hippocampal neurons were cultured in vitro for 7 days, and were divided into control group, control+BDNF group, epilepsy group, epilepsy+BDNF group , control+miR204 group, epilepsy+miR204 group and ep-ilepsy+miR204+BDNF group. The epilepsy model of hippocampal neurons was established by being exposed to Mg2+free me-dia for 3 hours. The miR-204 lentivirus vector was constructed. The effect of miR-204 on BDNF/TrkB expression was detect-ed by immunohistochemistry, patch clamp and Western blot technique. Results Compared with the control group, the TrkB phosphorylation level was higher in control+BDNF group. The TrkB phosphorylation level was lower in epilepsy+BDNF group than that of control+BDNF group, but it was higher than that of epilepsy group. The TrkB phosphorylation level was higher in epilepsy+miR204+BDNF group than that of epilepsy+BDNF group and epilepsy+ miR204 group. Conclusion BDNF and miR-204 can improve the inhibitory condition of BDNF/TrkB signaling and may play an important role in alleviat-ing epilepsy disease.

Objective To explore the endoscopic managements for biliary and pancreatic diseases in patients with the history of complex gastrointestinal surgery.Methods Data of four patients who underwent balloon-assisted enteroscopy after complex digestive surgeries (2 patients underwent Roux-en-Y reconstruction,2 others Whipple reconstruction) were retrospectively collected.One patient with bilio-intestinal anastomosis was explored by double-balloon enteroscope (DBE),and balloon-assisted enteroscopy combined with ERCP was used for other 3 patients.Results Therapeutic ERCP was successfully performed on one patient,and the diagnosis of 3 others were confirmed.No operation-related complications such as bleeding or perforation was observed.Conclusion Balloon-assisted enteroscopy combined with ERCP is an important diagnostic and therapeutic method for biliary and pancreatic diseases in the patients after complex gastrointestinal surgery.
