Objective To evaluate and compare the immunopathological changes of lumbar disc herniation and discogenic pain. Methods Seventy-one lumbar disc nucleuses were collected intra-operation,and they were divided into four groups. Group A: 30 cases of disc herniation, Group B: 22 cases of sequestered disc herniation, and the patients in Group A and B received discectomy; Group C: 10 cases of discogenic pain were confirmed by discography, and the painful disc was excised through anterior retroperitoneal approach; Group D: 9 cases of lumbar bust fracture who received anterior subtotal corpectomy and discectomy, and the nearly normal caudal disc was collected as control. The disc nucleuses were processed in the following methods: 1) HE stain and pathological observation; 2) Immunocytochemical test using monoclonal antibodies to CD68 and CD45RO molecule for macrophage and T lymphocytes, respectively. The positive cells were counted and analyzed with statistic method. Results 1) Pathological observation with HE stain: compare to control group, the degeneration of nucleus cell was evident in the other groups. There were obvious infiltration of inflammatory cells and focal neovascularization in group A and especially in Group B.In Group C, only diffuse inflammatory cells was found without neovascularization, but the degeneration of matrix was more severe. 2) Positive rate of CD68 cells: Group B (63.6%)＞Group C (40.0%)＞Group A (26.7%)＞Group D (0%). There were significant differences among groups (P＜0.05). 3) Positive rate of CD45RO cells:Group B (59.1%)＞Group A (13.3%), Group C and D were negative, and the positive cell were found in slice of the same site of positive CD68 cells. The differences between each group were significant (P＜0.05). Conclusion The nucleus of herniated disc has evident inflammatory and autoimmunity reaction. The nucleus of discogenic pain is infiltrated with diffuse inflammatory cells and some macrophages, without T lymphocyte and neovasularization, so the autoimmunity course is not evident.

Objective To express the N protein of middle east respiratory syndrome coronavirus ( MERS-CoV) in prokaryotic expression system and evaluate the immunogenicity of the purified recombinant N protein.Methods The gene encoding N protein of MERS-CoV was synthesized and cloned into the vector pET30a to construct the recombinant expression plasmid pET30a-MERS-CoV-N.The transformed E.coli BL21 ( DE3) strains carrying expression plasmid were induced by IPTG to express N protein.The expressed protein was purified by using affinity chromatography.SDS-PAGE and Western blot assays were used to iden-tify the expressed N protein and evaluate its immunogenicity.Results The recombinant N protein was suc-cessfully expressed in soluble form with the size of 46×103 .The results of Western blot assay showed that the recombinant N protein could specifically react with rabbit serum samples positive for antibodies against N protein B-cell epitope peptide and mouse anti-His tag antibodies.No positive band against N protein was found when primary antibody was used with thirty adult serum samples from Beijing in 2008.Conclusion N protein of MERS-CoV was successfully expressed in prokaryotic expression system.The successful expres-sion of N protein laid the foundation for immunological diagnosis of N protein of MERS-CoV and researches on its immunogenicity.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical effects and operative options for the treatment of Forestier disease.

METHODSFrom June 2005 to May 2012, 8 patients with progressive dysphagia due to Forestier disease were treated through anterior approach, their clinical data were retrospective analyzed. There were 6 males and 2 females, aged from 65 to 83 years old with an average of 73 years. Among the patients, osteophytes removal was performed in 3 cases, osteophytes removal with discectomy and fusion was performed in 2 cases, osteophytes removal with corpectomy and fusion was performed in 3 cases. According to Bazaz dysphagia score to assess the improvement of the patients' symptoms before and after operation.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 40 months with the mean of 18.5 months. Seven cases were asymptomatic and 1 case had mild symptom in the last follow-up. Radiographs showed the space enlargement between vertebral body and trachea.

CONCLUSIONIt is effective to treat patients with progressive dysphagia due to Forestier disease through surgical method. And the operative options depend on the stability of cervical spine and the neurological symptoms of the patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the prognosis of coronary heart disease complicated with heart failure patients abandon-ing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and receiving drug comprehensive therapy. METHODS:From Dec. 2010 to Jul. 2012,217 patients with coronary heart disease complicated with heart failure in our hospital were divided into operation group (105 cases) and non-operation group (112 cases). Based on routine treatment,operation group was given aspirin combined with clopidogrel before and after PCI,and non-operation group was given aspirin combined with clopidogrel all the time. The patients were followed up regularly during discharging from hospital to May 2015 by outpatient,telephone and coronary angiography re-checking,lasting for 24-38 months. Death cases,readmission and revascularization again caused by main adverse cardio-cerebrovas-cular events were recorded during follow-up period. RESULTS:7 cases and 8 cases in operation group and non-operation group did not accept follow-up;median follow-up time was 33 months and 32 months,respectively. Case number of myocardial infarction, heart failure and death in non-operation group was more than operation group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). 94 patients survived in operation group in 3 years,with survival rate of 95.9%;66 in non-operation group,with survival rate of 63.5%;with statistical significance(P<0.05). The survival time of non-operation group was shorter than that of operation group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Although we still cannot get the conclusion that PCI is a better treatment or drug therapy is better. But the survival rate of patients are not optimistic 3 years after abandoning PCI coronary heart disease patients with severe myocardial ischemia should choose PCI firstly.
