Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a kind of B cell malignancies,which includes classic HL and nodular lymphocyte predominant HL,and there is little known about its etiology and pathogenic mechanism.To early and correctly evaluate the prognosis of patients with HL is the prerequisite to guide their individualized treatment.It has confirmed that some important factors are closely related to the prognosis of patients with HL,such as changes in tumor microenvironment and virus infection.Further research is needed to analyze the composition of tumor microenvironment and the effect of virus infection on the development of HL.These findings can provide new strategies for the prognostic evaluation of patients with HL.PET-CT imaging has obvious advantages in the prediction of treatment response and offers a new way for the assessment of prognosis in patients with HL.

Objective To investigate the changes in 20S proteasome activities in the brain and spinal cord of acute and chronic morphine-dependent mice.Metbods Male ICR mice,weighing 25-30 g,were used in the study.The experiment was performed in 2 parts.In experiment Ⅰ,16 mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =8 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and acute morphine dependence group (AMD group).In experiment Ⅱ,16 mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =8 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and chronic morphine dependence group (CMD group).Acute morphine dependence was induced with morphine 100 mg/kg injected subcutaneously,and the mice were sacrificed 3 h later.Chronic morphine dependence was induced by increasing doses of morphine for 4 days,the initial dose of morphine was 20 mg/kg injected subcutaneously twice a day and was increased by 10 mg/kg every day,the dose of morphine was 10 mg/kg injected subcutaneously on 5th day,and then the mice were sacrificed 1 h later.In group C,the equal volume of normal saline was given instead,and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in morphine dependence groups.After the mice were sacrificed,the hippocampus,prefrontal cortex,striatum and spinalcord were isolated for determination of 20S proteasome activity,measured as chymotrypsin-like (ChT-L),trypsin-like (T-L) and peptidylglutamyl-like hydrolyzing (PGLH) activities.Results Experiment Ⅰ Compared with C group,PGLH activity in the spinal cord and T-L activity in the striatum or prefrontal cortex were significantly weakened in group AMD.There was no significant difference in 20S proteasome activity in the hippocampus between the two groups.Experiment Ⅱ Compared with C group,ChT-L and T-L activities in the spinal cord were significantly weakened,and PGLH activity in the striatum was enhanced in CMD group.There was no significant difference in 20S proteasome activity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus between the two groups.Conclusion 20S proteasome activity in the spinal cord and brain is weakened in acute morphine-dependent mice,20S proteasome activity in the spinal cord is weakened,20S proteasome activity in the striatum is enhanced in chronic morphine-dependent mice,these changes have specificity in terms of position and type of activity,and the changes mentioned above may be related to development of morphine dependence in mice.

Proteomics has been applied in a wide range of biomedical research.However,the application of proteomics in studying the molecular mechanism of morphine dependence is only at a preliminary stage.This article introduced the application of proteomics techniques in the study of the molecular mechanism of morphine dependence and the discovery of several potential molecular markers of morphine dependence,which affirmed the importance and potential of proteomics in this research area.Also,it was pointed out that the major tasks of current proteomic study of morphine dependence should include establishing animal and cell models of morphine dependence,selecting appropriate sample source and improving proteomics techniques,so that proteomics can serve as a new approach in the study of morphine dependence to discover new therapeutic targets.

Objective To investigate the effects of hyperuricemia on vascular endothelial function.Methods With high-resolution ultrasound,flow-and nitroglycerin induced dilation,the vasodilation of brachial artery was measured in 30 hyperuricemia male patients and 30 healthy male subjects(control group).Both serum NO and plasma endothelin-1(ET-1) levels were determined at the same time.Results In patients with hyperuricemia,flow-induced vasodilation was much reduced compared with that in the control subjects(P0.05).Plasma NO level in the hyperuricemia group was lower than that in the control group (P

Objective To discuss the efficacy of a modified single posterior fixation of complicated acetabular fractures with a percutaneous cannulated screw and a reconstruction plate in comparison with traditional bilateral approaches (ilioinguinal and Kocher-Langerbeek). Methods From April 2004 to May 2007, 48 cases of complicated acetabular fracture were treated surgically. By Letoumel classification, 22 were transverse and posterior wall fractures, 16 fractures of both columns, 3 fractures of anterior column and posterior wall, 3 T shape fractures and 4 anterior column and posterior hemi-transverse fractures. Of them, 22 cases were treated through the bilateral approaches and 26 cases through the modified single posterior approach by which a percutuneous cannulated screw was applied, going askew through skin and ischial tuberosity, to fix the anterior column and a reconstruction plate to fix the posterior column. Results Forty patients were followed up for 6 to 37 months(average, 18 months) . There was no statistical difference between the 2 groups as fax as the following factors were concerned: anatomic reduction rate and functional good-to-excellent rate. But there were significant differences in operation time and volume of hemorrhage during operation. Conclusion In treatment of complicated acetabular fractures, the modified singl eposterior approach simplifies traditional bilateral approaches so that surgery procedures, perioperative bleeding and postoperative complications can be reduced without sacrificing the treatment efficacy.

Objective To observe therapeutic benefits of intravenously transplanted hone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) on alcohol-associated dementia (AAD) rat model and study its underlying mechanisms.Methods BMMSCs were isolated by the method of differential adhesion and membrane antigens were detected with flowcytometric analysis.To establish AAD model,SD rats were intragastricly administrated with ethanol (20％,8ml/kg) for 28 days.Then BMMSCs were labeled with DAPI and injected into the blood via caudal vein.And animals were evaluated by observing Morris Maze behavior,hippocampal morphology and neuronal apoptosis.The expression of BDNF was detected by the method of immunohistochemistry.And the activities of total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in rat blood serum were also measured.Results The results of flowcytometry analysis indicated BMMSCs were CD29,CD90-positive,and CD45,CD34-negative.And the cells labeled with DAPI were observed in rat hippocampus 3 days after intravenous injection.Compared with PBS group,the escape latency of rats in BMMSC group was apparently shortened((10.17 ±0.71)s vs.(4.71 ± 0.34)s,P ＜0.01).And the morphological structure was repaired and neuronal apoptosis was reduced in rat hippocampus after BMMSC transplanting((72.67 ± 2.73) vs.(55.5 ± 5.14),P＜0.05).Immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of BDNF was significantly increased in the hippocampus of rats in BMMSC group ((71.54 ± 13.71) vs.(135.25 ± 22.20),P ＜0.05).Also,the activity of GSH-Px was apparently improved in the blood serum of rats treated with BMMSC transplanting ((526.89 ± 62.73) vs.(2592.75 ±243.73),P ＜0.01),but no change for that of T-SOD.Conclusion The results provide a novel therapeutic strategy for improving learning and memory function and reducing hippocampal damage induced by ethanol administration,which is closely related to enhance BDNF expression in the hippocampus and improve the activity of antioxidants.
