AlM: To investigate the relationship among carotid atherosclerosis, homocysteine ( Hcys ) and anterior ischmic optic neuropathy( AlON) .METHODS: Sixty-five AlON patients enrolled in AlON group and 70 non - AlON controls enrolled in control group. All the participants in 2 groups were examined by carotid artery color doppler flow imaging to evaluate the incidence of carotid atherosclerosis. Plasma levels of Hcys, vitamin B12 and folate were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer. The incidence of carotid atherosclerosis, plasma levels of Hcys, vitamin B12 and folate were compared statistically between AlON and control group.RESULTS: Fifty - six AlON patients ( 86%) exhibited carotid atherosclerosis, which was found in 43 control subjects ( 61%) . Fifty - nine AlON patients ( 91%) exhibited increased plasma levels of Hcys compared with that in 38 control subjects ( 54%) . Lowered vitamin B12 was found in 37 patients with AlON ( 57%) and in 43 control subjects ( 61%) . Lowered folate was found in 54 AlON patients ( 83%) and in 32 control subjects ( 46%) . The incidence of atherosclerosis in carotid artery ( P =0. 001), mean Hcys level (P=0. 0005) and lowered folate ( P = 0. 0006 ) were different statistically between AlON group and control group. Mean vitamin B12 level was indifferent between AlON group and control group ( P=0. 0722). Logistic regression analysis showed that carotid atherosclerosis was an a risk factor for AlON (OR=1. 312, 95%CI:0. 927~1. 772), whereas elevated Hcys level (OR=2. 378, 95% CI: 1. 479 ~ 3. 821 ) was also shown to be significant risk factor for AlON. CONCLUSlON: Carotid atherosclerosis and elevated Hcys were related with AlON. Reducing above-mentioned risk factors related to thrombus may be crucial to the prevention and cure of AlON.

Objective: To investigate the expression of co-stimulatory molecule CD86 and inducible costimulator(ICOS) in the intestinal mucosa of Crohn disease (CD) and to exlpore its pathologic significance. Methods: Expression of co-stimulator CD86 and ICOS was examined by immunohistoehemistry on paraffin embedded tissue from patients with CD (30 cases) and normal controls (20 cases). The subsets of lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMC) were also analysed via immunostaining for CD4, CD8 and CD20. Results: Increased amount of CD86 or ICOS positive LPMC was observed in the lesional area of CD when compared with the essentially normal area of CD and normal controls (q = 9. 23 ,P <0. 01 and q =5. 46 ,P<0. 01). In addition, the expression of CD86 or ICOS was higher in intestinal epithelium of CD than that in normal controls (H = 24. 93, P<0. 01 and H = 4. 66, P<0. 01 ) , whereas no significant difference was seen between the diseased and the essentially normal area of CD. The amount of CD4 or CD8 positive lymphocytes in lamina propria, epithelium and small vascular walls was also significantly increased in CD than that in normal controls (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion: Increased amount of CD86 or ICOS positive LPMC and enterocytes in CD suggests that co-stimulatory molecules may play a role in the pathogenesis of CD. The enterocytes may act as non-specific antigen presenting cells in the process of cellular immunity activation in CD.
