Objective To further improve the morphological materials of AGs by micro-dissection, histology and CT, we observed the arachnoid granulations (AGs) in middle cranial fossa. Methods Thirty-three adult cadaveric heads were used for microsurgical dissection;Histological sections of AG specimens from 3 cadaver heads were examined. Forty patients who had both normal conventional brain CT and computed tomographic venography (CTV) were retrospectively reviewed. Results In middle cranial fossa the AGs occur in the following situations in order of frequency: the middle meningeal sinus, sphenoparietal sinus, lateral foramen rotundum and cavernous sinus. AGs usually show round, oval in shape and irregular in shape. AGs can be divided into individual type and leaflet type under light microscope. The numbers of AGs were observed by microanatomy and CTV were 8.72 and 3.52 respectively. The AGs of cavernous sinus was not localized precisely on CTV. Conclusion Study of the AGs in the middle cranial fossa systematically and comprehensively enriches anatomy and image knowledge. It is helpful in neurosurgical planning and choosing operalion procedure to avoid postoperative complications.

AIM: This study was designed to investigate the inhibition of tanshinone ⅡA on C6 glioma cell line and its mechanism. METHODS: MTT was used to measure the levels of the proliferation of C6 cultured with tanshinone ⅡA at different concentrations. The effects of tanshinone ⅡA on cell cycle of C6 were observed by FCM. The change of DNA was observed by Sepharose electrophoresis. The expression of proto-oncogenes c-myc was measured by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The proliferation of C6 was obviously inhibited by tanshinone ⅡA in a dose-dependent manner. The outcome of FCM showed that the apoptotic cell rate was 7.7%, when cultured with tanshinone ⅡA at 1.0 mg/L for 3 days. The apoptotic cell rate was 21.6%, when cultured with tanshinone ⅡA at 2.0 mg/L in 3 days. CONCLUSION: Tanshinone ⅡA inhibits the proliferation of C6 cells, induces apoptosis and inhibits the expression of proto-oncogene c-myc.

Methods MTT was used to measure the levels of the proliferation of U251 cultured with matrine in different concentrations.The effects of matrine on cell cycle of U251 were observed by FCM. The expression of proto oncogenes c myc was measured by RT PCR. Results The proliferation of U251 was obviously inhibited by matrine in a dose dependent manner. The inhibitory rate was (53 7?6 0)%,when cultured with matrine at 0 10 g?L -1 . The outcome of FCM showed that the proportion of G 0/G 1 phase cells were decreased. The proportion of S phase cells were reduced obviously,when cultured with matrine at 0 10 g?L -1 in 3 days.The outcome of RT PCR showed that the expression of proto onco gene C myc was notably decreased, when the dose of matrine was increased. Conclusion Matrine can inhibit the proliferation of U251 and inhibit the expression of proto onco gene C myc.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic features of intestinal polypoid lymphoma (PL) in children. Methods The clinicopathologic data of 15 cases of pediatric intestinal PL in Jiangxi Provincial Children 's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Immuohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of CD10, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUMl and ERCC1, then EB virus (EBV)-encoded RNA (EBER) status was tested by using in situ hybridization. Results Amongst 15 cases studied, 13 cases were Burkitt lymphoma (BL), 1 case was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and 1 case was between DLBCL and BL (DLBCL/BL). The positive rate of CD10, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUMl, ERCC1 and EBER were 100.0%(13/13), 92.3%(12/13), 0, 7.7 % (1/13), 15.4 % (2/13), 53.8 % (7/13), respectively in 13 BL cases. The clinical stage of 13 patients with BL: 11 cases (84.6 %) Ⅱ stage, 1 case (7.7 %) Ⅲ stage, 1 case (7.7 %) Ⅳstage. The clinical stage of DLBCL and BL/DLBCL: Ⅱstage. 14 cases of PL had survival time without tumors, 24-120 months follow-up, and 1 BL patient inⅣstage without chemotherapy died after 2 months. Conclusion BL is a major subtype of intestinal PL in children, which shows a low clinical stage and a good prognosis.

AIM: This study was designed to investigate the effect of ginsenoside Rg1 on the amyloid ?-protein precursor (APP) and neprilysin (NEP)expression induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in C6 cell line in order to discover effectual Alzheimer's disease (AD)-treated drugs. METHODS: MTT colorimetric analysis was used to measure the survival rate of C6 cultured with ginsenoside Rg1 at different concentrations (2 5, 5, 10 and 20 ?mol?L -1) and LPS (100 mg?L -1). The expression of APP and NEP mRNA was measured by RT-PCR. RESULTS: LPS decreased the survival rate of C6, furthermore, the increase in APP expression and the decrease in NEP expression were observed. On the other hand, the above alteration induced by LPS was reversed by ginsenoside Rg1. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that LPS can cause cell damage, the increase in APP expression and the decrease in NEP expression. Ginsenoside Rg1 can exert a neuroprotective action, protect C6 cells against LPS-induced injury via inhibiting APP expression and increasing NEP expression.
