Objective To investigate the effects of hydrogen sulfide on autophagy and the apoptosis after acute spinal cord injury in rats. Methods Thirty-six adult male SD rats (250-300 g) were randomly divided into three groups (n=12 for each group):sham operation group (Sham group), spinal cord injury group (Model group) and hydrogen sulfide pre-treatment group (H2S group). Allen’s method was used to establish the rat model of spinal cord injury. Rats of sham operation group re?ceived only laminectomy. Rats of H2S group received sodium hydrosulphide injection intraperitoneally (50μmol/kg) 1h after spinal cord injury, and Model group was given the same amount of saline solution. Rats in the three groups were sacrificed 24 h after spinal cord injury, then the spinal cord was removed. The expressions of LC3, p70S6K and Cleaved caspase-3 were detected by Western blot assay. The expression of LC3 was also detected by immunofluorescence. The cell apoptosis was as?sessed by TUNEL stain. Results Compared with Sham group, the expression levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand Cleaved caspase-3 were increased in Model group, but the expression of p70S6K decreased and cell apoptosis increased in Model group (P<0.01). Compared with Model group, the expression levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand Cleaved caspase-3 were decreased significant?ly, while the expression of p70S6K increased and cell apoptosis decreased significantly in H2S group (P < 0.01). Conclu?sion Hydrogen sulfide can inhibit autophagy and reduce cell apoptosis after acute spinal cord injury in rats.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of adiponectin in early atherosclerosis and the diagnostic value of adiponectin in metabolic syndrome in obese children. Methods Total 176 obese children and 88 normal weight children aged 9-12 years were included in the present study. All participants underwent hematologic and biochemical tests including serum adiponectin, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP),fasting blood glucose, insulin, and plasma lipids. Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)was calculated. Noninvasive ultrasound measurement including intima-media thickness of the common carotid artery(IMT), brachial flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), carotid artery compliance (CAC), and the maximum fatthickness ahead of peritoneum (Pmax) were obtained to investigate arterial mechanical properties and endothelial function. Results (1) The level of adiponectin was negatively correlated with obese index, blood pressure,fasting insulin, hsCRP, HOMA-IR, and IMT(P<0.05 or P<0. 01 ); but not with triglyceride, fasting blood glucose, CAC, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), and FMD. (2) The risk of metabolic syndrome increased 3.43 times in children with adiponectin level <7. 060 mg/L compared with ＞7. 060 mg/L. (3)Receiver operating characteristic( ROC ) curve was used to choose the optimal cutpoint of adiponectin to identify obese children with the metabolic syndrome. The area under the curve (AUC) for adiponectin to discriminate the sensitivity of metabolic syndrome was 0. 769 (95% CI0. 714-0.816, P< 0. 0 1 ). (4) The obese children were divided into three groups according to the cut-off value for adiponectin (high, middle, low groups). There were significant differences in the prevalences of severe obesity, visceral fat accumulation, hypertension, insulinemia,low HDL-C, metabolic syndrome among three groups (P<0.05). Conclusions High levels of serum adiponectin could prevent early stage of atherosclerosis. The lower the adiponectin level, the higher the incidence of metabolic syndrome.

Objective To study the effect of Exendin-4 on oxidative stress and neural apoptosis following spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods Adult male SD rats, with weight between 200-250 g, were randomly divided into three groups (12 in each group):Sham group, SCI group and Exendin-4 group (Ex-4 group). Rats in Sham group achieved spinal cord exposure. SCI group and Ex-4 group were induced according to Allen′s test (using a weight-drop device). Rats in Ex-4 group were ad?ministrated with Exendin-4 (10 μg/rat) through intraperitoneal injection immediately after establishment of SCI models. Rats in Sham group and SCI group were given the same volume of normal saline solution instead. Level of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activity of catalase (CAT) were assessed in spinal cord tissues 24 hour after drug administrations. Neural apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining and the expression levels of caspase-9 and AIF were determined using Western blot. Results Compared with Sham group, the levels of MDA, caspase-9 and AIF as well as neuronal apoptosis rate in?creased obviously, while activity of CAT decreased markedly in SCI group(P<0.01). Compared with SCI group, the levels of MDA, caspase-9 and AIF as well as the neuronal apoptosis rate decreased obviously, while activity of CAT increased re?markably in Exendin-4 group(P < 0.01). Conclusion Exendin-4 restrain neural apoptosis following spinal cord injury through relieving oxidative damage.

Objective To investigate the effects of edaravone (EDA) on cell apoptosis induced by endoplasmic reticu?lum stress (ESR) after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. Methods Thirty-six healthy adult SD rats were randomly divided in?to three groups (12 rats for each group):Sham group, SCI group and EDA group. The rat model of SCI was made by Allen’s method and the sham group was only received laminectomy and kept the spinal cord intact. Rats in sham group and SCI group accepted the same volume and frequency of saline injection as EDA group. The EDA group was given 10 mg/kg EDA once every 12 h intraperitoneally. Three days after injuring, the spinal cords were harvested, and the protein levels of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), Cleaved caspase-12 and Cleaved caspase-3 were detected by Western blot assay. Immunofluo?rescence staining was used to analyze the positive ratio of caspase-12 and CHOP in spinal cord of three groups. Meanwhile, TUNEL staining was used to identify cell apoptosis of spinal cord. Results Compared with sham group, the protein levels of CHOP, Cleaved caspase-12 and Cleaved caspase-3 were obviously higher in SCI group (P<0.01);the proportion of Cas?pase-12 and CHOP positive cells was significantly increased (P<0.01), and the apoptotic rates were also significantly in?creased in spinal cord (P<0.01). However, compared with SCI group, the protein levels of CHOP , Cleaved caspase-12 and Cleaved caspase-3 were significantly decreased in EDA group (P<0.01);the proportion of Caspase-12 and CHOP positive cells was significantly reduced (P<0.01), and the apoptotic rates were also significantly decreased in spinal cord (P<0.01). Conclusion EDA has neuroprotective potential to spinal cord injury. The mechanism of its neuroprotective effect may asso?ciate with its inhibitory effect to the cell apoptosis induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress after SCI.

Objective:To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of urothelial carcinoma of the prostate.Methods:The clinical data of 25 patients with prostate urothelial carcinoma from January 2011 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Among the 25 patients, the age of onset was 39 to 85 years old, with an average of (63.4±11.2) years old, 13 patient presented with gross hematuria, 9 patients presented with dysuria, and 3 presented with bladder irritation. The PSA of 25 patients was within the normal range (less than 4 ng/ml). 17 cases of pelvic MRI showed abnormal signals in the bladder and prostate area, 3 cases indicated that prostate cancer had invaded the bladder, and 14 cases considered bladder cancer Invasion of the prostate suggests a cauliflower-like abnormal signal in the bladder area. 6 of this 14 patients have a history of bladder cancer. All 25 patients underwent surgical treatment, and 14 underwent transurethral diagnostic resection, of which 6 cases accepted radical cystectomy later. One patient underwent radical cystectomy combined with pelvic lymph node dissection 15 days after the first operation.9 cases received radical cystectomy.2 cases undergoing transurethral palliative resection due to multiple metastases before the operation.Results:The postoperative pathological diagnosis of 25 cases were all prostate urothelial carcinoma, 13 cases were accompanied by bladder urothelial carcinoma, secondary prostate urothelial carcinoma, and 12 cases were primary prostate urothelial carcinoma. After the operation, 13 patients were further treated. Among the patients with secondary prostate urothelial carcinoma, 7 patients received bladder perfusion, 2 patients received GC chemotherapy, 1 patient received local pelvic radiotherapy.25 patients were followed up for 2 to 36 months with an average of (21.5±10.1) months. Among them, lymph node metastasis were seen in 17/25 patients. lymph node metastasis were found in 7/25 before surgery, and 1/25 found lymph node metastasis during surgery. Among the patients with distant metastases afterwards, multiple metastases throughout the body (4/14), lung metastases only (6/14), and bone metastases only (4/14), the 1-year survival rate was 88% (22/25), the 2-year survival rate was 40% (10/25), and the 3-year survival rate was 28% (7/25).Conclusions:The diagnosis depends on histopathological examination. Early diagnosis may help improve prognosis. The first choice is a comprehensive treatment based on radical surgery.
