Objective:To investigate the content change of EGF and NT-4/5 in the the frontal lobe,hippocampus and thalamus of rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,in order to reveal the dynamic protection of EGF and NT-4/5 to cerebellum ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods:Wistar senile rats were divided into the control group and the experiment groups at random.The control group included 5.The experimental groups were divided into cerebral ischemia 15 min group and ischemia-reperfusion 1 h,6 h,2 d,4 d,9 d groups after 15 min ischemia,5 rats per group.Results:There was all a little expression of EGF and NT-4/5 in the frontal lobe,hippocampus and thalamus of normal senile rats.The frontal lobe was shown evident increase of EGF expression in ischemia-reperfusion 2 d only.The hippocampus was shown continued increase of EGF expression during ischemia-reperfusion 6 h to 4 d and the EGF expression was shown a peak in ischemia-reperfusion 4 d.The increase of EGF expression in thalamus continued during ischemia-reperfusion 2-9 d too.The NT-4/5 expression of the frontal brain was clearly reduced after ischemia-reperfusion and returned to normal in ischemia-reperfusion 9 d.The NT-4/5 expression of hippocampus was shown one-off reduction after ischemia-reperfusion,but the expression quickly returned to normal and shows a little increase.The thalamus had only one-off reduction of NT-4/5 expression.Conclusion:The frontal lobe lacks of fast neuroprotective mechanism of EGF in early stage of ischemia-reperfusion and it has a limited neuroprotective effect of EGF in middle and advanced stage.The hippocampus has a fast and long-lasting neuroprotective mechanism of EGF.The thalamus has a delayed neuroprotective mechanism of EGF.The frontal brain and hippocampus have a delayed neuroprotective mechanism of NT-4/5.The neuroprotective mechanism of NT-4/5 is weaker in thalamus.

Objective To understand the incidence of renal involvement of children with non Hodgkin′s lymphoma and to recognize its different CT findings. Methods The thoracic and abdominal plain and contrast enhanced CT of 30 cases of NHL in children were reviewed and all cases were confirmed by pathology. The changes in both pre and post chemotherapy were analysed in the 10 selected cases with renal involvement. Results CT demonstrated 6 cases of multiple masses and 1 case of multiple patchy lesions in bilateral kidneys. Two cases of single mass and 1 case of multiple masses were detected in single kidney. Conclusion The incidence of renal involvement of children with non Hodgkin′s lymphoma is relatively high. CT can clearly demonstrate the renal involvement of NHL, which is helpful for clinical stage, especially in the evaluation of the therapeutic effects. Hence, abdominal plain and contrast enhanced CT scan should be done in children with NHL.

Objective To evaluate the effect of oral mesalazine combined with metronidazole enema in the treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis and the impact on interferon-γ (IFN-γ),interleukin-4 (IL-4),interleukin-8 (IL-8).Methods A total of 80 patients with ulcerative colitis were selected and randomly divided into control group and observation group,40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with oral mesalazine.The observation group was treated with oral mesalazine and metronidazole retention enema.4 weeks as a course of treatment,the patients were treated for 2 courses.The clinical efficacy,disease activity index(DAI) score before and after treatment,as well as peripheral blood erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),levels of IFN-γ,IL-4,IL-8 changes was compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was 90.00％ in the control group,which was significantly higher than 75.00％ in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =23.52,P ＜ 0.05).Before treatment,there were no significant changes in diarrhea,colonic mucosal inflammation,bloody stool and DAI scores (t =0.32,0.08,0.03,0.05,all P ＞ 0.05).After treatment,there were significant decline in each integral of the two groups,the integral of the observation group declined more than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(t =15.35,5.8,11.25,14.12,all P ＜0.05).Before treatment,there were no significant changes in ESR,IL-4,IL-8,IFN-γ of peripheral blood in the two groups (t =0.60,-0.95,0.03,-0.06,all P ＞ 0.05).After treatment,ESR,IL-8,IFN-γ of peripheral blood declined in the two groups,IL-4 was increased,and the changes were more significantly in the control group than those in the control group(t =10.02,4.70,10.23,22.82,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Oral mesalazine enema combined with metronidazole enema has significant clinical effect in patients with ulcerative colitis,it is better than treating with oral mesalazine only,and can effectively improve the clinical symptoms and possibly plays a role by regulating IL-8,IFN-γ,IL-4,and it deserves further clinical application.

BackgroundThe effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) on public health have attracted wide attentions.The association of the thermal effect of ELF-EMFs with cancer and ocular tissue damage has been of concern.However,the pathological changes of scleral tissue after exposure to ELF-EMFs as well as the relationship between these changes and myopia are still poorly understood.ObjectiveThe present study was to investigate the molecular pathological changes of human fetal scleral fibroblasts (HFSFs) after exposure to ELF-EMFs in vitro and to explore the possible mechanism in the occurrence and development of myopia.MethodsHFSFs were cultured and passaged and then exposed to 50 Hz electromagnetic fields,and HFSFs that did not receive the irradiation of ELF-EMFs were used as the control group.The expression of collagen type Ⅰ (COL1A1 ) mRNA and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) mRNA in cultured HFSFs were detected by real-time qualitative polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) under different magnetic field intensites (0,0.1,0.2,0.5,1.0 mT) and different exposure time (0,6,12,24,36,48 hours).Cell proliferation assay of HFSFs was detected by the cell counting kit 8 ( CCK8 ) assay.The expression levels of COL1 A1 and MMP-2 proteins in HFSFs were further confirmed by immunofluorescence staining.Results The expression of COL1A1 mRNA was significantly down-regulated under the exposure of 0.2 mT ELF-EMFs for 6 hours,in comparison with the control group;moreover,it decreased in parallel with the increased of flux density (0.099±0.008 vs.0.050±0.004) (P =0.009 ).The expression of MMP-2mRNA was up-regulated conspicuously after exposure to 0.1 mT ELF-EMFs for 24 hours,and it increased with exposure time in comparison with the control group ( 0.009 ±0.001 vs.0.018±0.003 ) ( P =0.038 ).Proliferation of HFSFs (A450) was inhibited following the exposure to 0.2 mT ELF-EMFs for 24 hours in comparison with the control group (P =0.009 ).The expression of COL1 A1 in the experimental group was decreased,compared with the control group,but the expression of MMP-2 was increased.ConclusionsELF-EMFs inhibit the proliferation of HFSFs and expression of COL1 A1 in HFSFs,which might be one of the reasons for the development of myopia.
