Objective:To investigate the structural alterations of mitochondria and its role in neutrophil death induced by ONO-AE-248.Methods:Human neutrophils were cultured in vitro with ONO-AE-248(5?10-5 mol/L)and medium alone. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) was used to detect the structural alterations of mitochondria and the level of mitochondria membrane potential by flow cytometry using mitocapture dying.Results:ONO-AE-248 resulted in extremely swollen mitochondria within 6 hours. Meanwhile, a rapid loss of mitochondrial membrane potential of neutrophils occurred, especially in 3 hours and 6 hours. There were obviously differences between spontaneous apoptosis and non-apoptosis programmed cell death induced by ONO-AE-248.Conclusion:The experiment results suggest that changes of mitochondrial structure and function be typically morphological, physiological and biochemical features in this unique form of neutrophil death, and that the mitochondrial pathway might play a more important role in ONO-AE-248-induced death of neutrophils.

Sacral fractures are usually caused by high-energy violence,often complicated with injury to the lumbosacral plexus.In severe cases,they may cause instability of the posterior pelvic ring or of the lumbosacral junction.Their classifications commonly used in clinic are Denis,Tile,Isler and refined Denis type Ⅲ ones proposed by Roy-Camille and Gibbons.Recently,classifications of the lumbosacral lesions and scoring systems of the injury severity have often been used clinically.At present,internal instrumentation of sacral fractures is developing along the direction of high efficiency,safety and minimal invasion,but different methods of internal fixation have their own indications which should be strictly followed.This review summarizes the classifications of sacral fractures and their treatment advances.
