Vertical one-and-a-half syndrome (VOHS) is a rare ophthalmoplegia syndrome caused by unilateral thalamo-mesencephalic infarct. It is manifested as a conjugate upgaze palsy and a monocular paresis of downward gaze. Recognition of VOHS helps clinical localization. No cases of VOHS with photos or videos of ocular motility have been reported in China. Herein a case of VOHS caused by unilateral thalamo-mesencephalic infarct is reported, in order to improve awareness about the ocular sign.

Objective To explore the efficacy of non-T cell depletion haploidentical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for T lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LL). Methods 3 T-LL patients achieving complete remission received haploidentical bone marrow stem cell transplantation with granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilized bone marrow grafts from related donor without T-cell depletion. Two of them received a myeloablative conditioning regimen consisting of high-doses of cyclophosphamide and cytarabine with total body irradiation, whereas the other was preconditioned with busulfan, cyclophosphamide and cytarabine. All patients received strengthened phophylaxis regimen including rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin against acute graft-versus-host disease. Results All patients had rapid hematopoietic engraftment with the median time for neutrophil and platelet recovery being 12 days and 13 days, respectively. They are still alive without relapse at a median follow-up of 24 months (range: 9-75 months). Conclusion Treatment related toxicity can be acceptable in non-T cell depletion haploidenfical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for T-LL and the patients may achieve long term survival.

Objective:To study the effect of different doses of 60Co γ-ray ionizing radiation on mitochondrial function in mouse hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Methods:C57BL/6 mice were divided into control group, 1 Gy irradiation group and 4.5 Gy irradiation group. The mitochondrial functions were detected at 12 h and 24 h after irradiation, including ROS level, membrane potential, mitochondrial structure, and mitochondrial stress. Bone marrow c-Kit + cells received a single 15 Gy irradiation in vitro, after 24 h, mitochondrial function was detected. Results:It was found that mice leukocytes ( t=12.41, 18.31, 16.48, 14.16, 19.08, 20.25, P<0.05), red blood cells ( t=4.81, 6.62, P<0.05) and platelets ( t=4.33, 6.68, P<0.05) were significantly reduced. The numbers of bone marrow colony formation unit ( t=16.27, 55.66, 17.06, 43.75, P<0.05), and HSPCs ( t=5.16, 11.55, P<0.05) were decreased dose-dependently post-irradiation. Under 1 Gy irradiation, the mitochondrial function and mitochondrial basal metabolic index of HSPCs ( t= 7.36, 3.68, 4.58, 3.15, 3.15, P<0.05) were enhanced at 24 h post-irradiation. Under 4.5 Gy irradiation, mitochondrial number, mitochondrial membrane potential ( t=12.29, 10.46, P<0.05), maximal respiration and spare respiratory capacity were decreased ( t=7.81, 5.78, 6.70, 5.83, P<0.05), ROS level was increased ( t=4.63, 4.12, P<0.05). The basal respiration and oxidative phosphorylated ATP production were reduced at 12 h after irradiation ( t=8.48, 3.80, P<0.05); and the proton leakage was increased ( t=6.57, P<0.05) and coupling efficiency was reduced ( t=11.43, P<0.05) at 24 h after irradiation. In cultured c-Kit + cells, the level of ROS ( t=11.30, P<0.05) and the maximum respiration and spare respiratory capacity were increased ( t=4.25, 3.44, P<0.05) while the mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased ( t=34.92, P<0.05) significantly. Conclusions:A method for systematically assessing mitochondrial function in HSPCs was established, and the effect of ionizing radiation on mitochondrial function of HSPCs was clarified, laying a foundation for further revealing the mechanism of ionizing radiation-induced mitochondrial damage in HSPCs.

Objective:To investigate the difference in the radiation sensitivity of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) derived from fetal liver and bone marrow.Methods:HSPCs from fetal liver of 14.5 d embryo or bone marrow of 8 week-old mice were isolated to receive a single dose of 5 or 10 Gy irradiation in vitro using a 60Co irradiator. Twelve hours later, the cell apoptosis, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, colony formation ability and DNA damage in HSPCs were detected. Freshly isolated HSPCs were injected into lethally irradiated CD45.1 + C57BL/6J mice (4.5 Gy+ 5 Gy with an interval of 30 min) Chimerism rate, lineage constitution, and cell cycle were analyzed 12 weeks after transplantation. Results:Compared with bone marrow HSPCs after irradiation, the percentage of apoptosis in fetal liver HSPCs was significantly higher ( t=16.21, 12.27, P<0.05), the level of ROS was dramatically elevated ( t=68.72, 18.89, P<0.05). At 10 Gy, fetal liver HSPCs could not form colonies at all ( t=12.41, 15.67, 9.46, P<0.05). γ-H2AX immunofluorescence staining showed that the DNA damage of fetal liver HSPCs was more severe after irradiation, and the number of Foci formed was significantly higher than that of bone marrow HSPCs ( t=2.27, 2.03, P< 0.05), which indicated that fetal liver HSPCs were more sensitive to radiation. The chimerism rate of transplanted fetal liver HSPCs was lower than that of bone marrow cells ( t=5.84, P<0.05) with a higher proportion of myeloid lineage, suggesting that fetal liver HSPCs had lower in vivo reconstitution capacity than bone marrow HSPCs and were more prone to myeloid differentiation. The cell cycle of bone marrow HSPCs from transplanted chimeric mice was examined, and the proportion of S-phase was significantly higher in the fetal liver group than that in the bone marrow group ( t=2.89, P<0.05). Mitochondrial stress results showed that fetal liver HSPCs had higher basal respiratory capacity ( t=39.19, P<0.05), proton leakage ( t=6.64, P<0.05), ATP production ( t=9.33, P<0.05), and coupling efficiency ( t=7.10, P<0.05) than bone marrow c-Kit + cells, while respiratory reserve capacity ( t=5.53, P< 0.05) was lower than that of bone marrow c-Kit + cells. Conclusions:HSPCs derived from fetal liver display higher radiosensitivty compared with bone marrow HSPCs, laying the foundation for an in-depth illustration of the effects of radiation on hematopoietic stem cells at different developmental stages.

Objective:
To investigate the clinicopathologic and differential diagnostic features of glomus tumor of the kidney.
Methods:
Four cases of glomus tumor of the kidney were collected from the archives of Peking University Third Hospital, the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, Ningbo Yinzhou Second Hospital and Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital between January 2012 to June 2017; the clinical and radiologic features, histomorphology, immunohistochemistry, ultrastucture and prognosis were analyzed and the relevant literature was reviewed.
Results:
Patients consisted of 2 men and 2 women with ages ranging from 37 years to 66 years (mean 55 years). Three patients had history of hypertensive disease (grade Ⅱ, 3 to 10 years). The tumors measured in maximum diameter from 3.0 cm to 4.0 cm (mean 3.6 cm) and showed gray-white to yellow and tan on cut surface. Macroscopical examinations showed all tumors were circumscribed but non-encapsulated. Histologically, 1 tumor presented as glomus tumor with extensive myxoid change, 1 as cellular and solid pattern glomus tumor, 1 as glomangioma with focal myopericytoma-like pattern and 1 as symplastic glomus tumor with areas resembling myopericytoma. The tumor cells in two cases showed scant cytoplasm and uniform, bland-appearing nuclei without mitoses. In one case, the tumor cells were epithelioid with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and relatively well-defined cell borders. There was an increased mitosis of 4/50 HPF; however, no evidence of atypical mitosis or nuclear atypia was noted. In the symplastic glomus tumor the tumor cells showed frequently nuclear pleomorphism without mitoses. By immunohistochemistry, all tumors showed strong and diffuse reactivities to at least 3 of the 4 muscle-associated markers (SMA, h-Caldesmon, MSA and Calponin), 3 tumors strongly and diffusely expressed collagen Ⅳ, 2 expressed CD34 and 1 focally expressed desmin; whereas markers including epithelial, neuroendocrine, nephrogenic, melanoma-associated, STAT6, S-100 protein, CD117 and β-catenin all were negative in all the 4 tumors. Ultrastuctural analysis was done in 2 cases and showed prominent cytoplasmic actin bundles and pericellular basement membrane, and lacking of rhomboid renin crystals in both tumors. The hypertension persisted after surgical resection for all the 3 patients with this medical history. Follow-up information (range: 6-64 months, mean: 44 months)showed that no evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis was identified in all 4 patients.
Conclusions
Glomus tumor rarely occurs in the kidney and usually has a good prognosis. Careful attention to its morphology with the judicious use of immunohistochemistry and ultrastuctural analysis can be helpful for its diagnosis and differential diagnosis.
