Objective To explore the ultrasonographic characteristics in craniocerebral gunshot injured areas and the value of ultrasound technology for judging the activity of wound tissues. Methods After establishment of the model of penetrated craniocerebral gunshot wound, the ultrasonographic characteristics of the tissues in the injured areas were observed by conventional ultrasound and contrastenhanced ultrasonography(CEUS) ,and compared with the pathological changes of the wound area. Results ①A straight-looking, irregular-edged, easily distinguishable pipe-shaped high-level echo can be seen by conventional ultrasound in craniocerebral gunshot injured areas. ②The pipe-shaped strong echo usually shows non-enhancement by the CEUS,or shows homogeneous hypo-enhancement in some areas. ③Tissues around the pipe-shaped echo usually appears that the homogeneous hypo-enhancing area and non-enhancing area exist together. ④Around the above-mentioned the hypo-enhancing area and non-enhancing area, a hyper-enhancing area can be seen, and appears to be a typical ring-shaped high-level echo in short-axis section of the pipe-shaped echo. ConclusionsConventional ultrasound can easily shows the distribution of craniocerebral gunshot injured areas characterized by pipe-shaped high-level echo, and CEUS can precisely demonstrate necrotic tissues in the gunshot injured areas,distinguish them from the degenerative tissues and normal tissues. The application of ultrasound technology will greatly improve the therapeutic and treatmental level of the craniocerebral gunshot wound.

OBJECTIVETo observe the analgesic effect of triptolide (TP) of high, middle and low doses on rats with adjuvant arthritis (AA), and the expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and substance P (SP) in spinal dorsal horn and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of corresponding sections, in order to discuss the possible mechanism for the analgesic effect of TP on rats with adjuvant arthritis.

METHODFifty SD rats were selected and randomly divided into the normal group (group A), the model group (group B), and TP low (group C), middle (group D), high (group E) dose groups. Except for the group A, all of the remaining groups were injected with 0.1 mL of Freund's complete adjuvant through their right rear toes to establish the model. At 14 d after the model establishment, rats in C, D and E groups were intraperitoneally injected with different doses of TP (0.1 mg x kg(-1) for the group C, 0.2 mg x kg(-1) for the group D, 0.4 mg x kg(-1) for the group E) once a day for 9 days. Then the 50% mechanical withdraw threshold (MWT) was determined. And the expressions of iNOS and SP in lumbar5 (L5) spinal dorsal horn and DRG were detected with the immunohistochemical method.

RESULTThe 50% MWT of rats in the group B was significantly lower than that of the group A (P < 0.01). After being treated with TP, the Thermal withdrawal latencies of groups C, D and E were significantly higher than that of the group B (P < 0.01). TP could notably increase the MWT of AA rats, with a certain dose-effect relationship. The immunohistochemical results indicated that the iNOS and SP expressions significantly increased in the group B (P < 0.01), while the positive expression levels of iNOS and SP in groups C, D and E were significantly lower than that of the group B (P < 0.01), with a certain dose-effect relationship.

CONCLUSIONTP shows a good analgesic effect on AA, and could inhibit the iNOS and SP expressions in spinal dorsal horn and DRG in rats with adjuvant arthritis, which may be one of action mechanisms for the analgesic effect of TP.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and side effect of MT regimen (mitoxantrone plus teniposide) in inductive chemotherapy and explore the relationship between the effectiveness and karyotype. Methods 33 patients with acute monocytic leukemia were divided into two groups according to the treatment history or risk status according to cytogenetics MRC criteria. Group A (n=23) and B (n=10) were primary treatment and no remission following one course of DA (daunorubicin plus cytarabine) or HDA (Harringtonine,daunorubicin plus cytarabine) regimen,respectively. According to MRC criteria,group C (n=29) and D (n=4) were intermediate and adverse group. All the cases received two courses MT regimen chemotherapies to induce remission. The results and side effects were analysed. Results The complete remission rate and effective rate in group A and B were 83 % (19/23) and 60 % (6/10),91 % (21/23) and 70 % (7/10) respectively. The complete remission rate and effective rate in group C and D was 83 % (24/29) and 25 % (1/4),88 % (26/29) and 50 % (2/4) respectively. In complex cytogenetic group and 11q23 abnormal without complex cytogenetic group,CR rate was 0 (0/3) and 100 % (4/4). The time point,count of WBC nadir and the duration of WBC were less than 1×109/L is (7±3) day after chemotherapy,(0.4±0.2)×l09/L,(8±5) day. Chemotherapy related mortality was 0. Conclusion MT regimen was highly effective and safe in inducing remission in acute monocytic leukemia,including the cases which achieved no remission following one course of DA or HDA regimen. The effectiveness of MT regimen relates to the cytogenetics. MT regimen may be highly effective in cases with 11q23 abnormal and poor effective in cases with complex cytogenetic.

AIM: To evaluate the effects of over-expression of cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes(CREG) mediated by retrovirus on neointima formation in injured rat carotid.METHODS: The pluronic F127 containing pLNCX/CREG or pLNCX/GFP retroviral vectors was placed around the injured rat carotid.The neointima,media areas and the intima to media ratio were calculated.Expressions of CREG,SM ?-actin and Ki-67 were detected.RESULTS: The GFP expression was observed at day 2 in pLNCX/GFP groups.The expression of exogenous CREG was also significantly increased in arteries at day 2 after pLNCX-CREG infection.Over-expression of CREG significantly suppressed neointima formation,attenuated the expression of Ki-67 and up-regulated SM ?-actin expression.CONCLUSION: Over-expression of CREG inhibits VSMCs proliferation and promotes VSMCs differentiation after vascular injury.It suggests that modulation of CREG expression or activity may be a viable approach to treat neointimal restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention.

Background Neuroglobin (Ngb) is a newly discovered member of globin superfamily.It is thought to regulate cell survival under hypoxia or oxidative stress condition.Ngb is expressed at a high level in retinal neuron,suggesting that retina may be one of important functional sites of Ngb.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the protective role of endogenous Ngb on retina ganglion cells (RGCs) following chronic high intraocular pressure(IOP)in mice and the underlying mechanisms.Methods This study included the in vitro and in vivo experiment.RGCs derived from adult C57BL/6J wild type(WT) mice and Ngb-transgenic(Ngb-Tg) mice which cultivated by our laboratory were incubated with 5.0,7.5,10.0 mmol/L glutamic acid for 3 days.RGCs survival rate was calculated for the ration of dead and survival cells using a double labeling kit to evaluate the influence of Ngb on RGCs survival rate in the addition of glutamic acid.Chronic ocular hypertension models were established by injection of fluorescent microballon(MB) (10 μm)into the anterior chamber of WT mice and Ngb-Tg mice,The mice were divided into WT control group(n=18),Ngb-Tg control group(n=30),WT+MB single injection group(n=38),Ngb-Tg+MB single injection group (n =38),WT+MB twice injection group (n =6) and Ngb-Tg + twice injection group (n=6).In addition,WT+PBS injection group (n =6) and Ngb-Tg+ PBS injection group (n =6) were designed as negative controls to identify if it can affect IOP or not.The mice were sacrificed on 0 day(control group),3 days and 1,4,8 weeks followed the MB anterior chamber injection.Real-time PCR,Western blot and immunoytochemistry were used respectively for the analysis of the expressions of Ngb mRNA and protein in mouse retina,and the survival rates of RGCs were compared between the two types mice.Dihydroethidium (DHE) in retina was detected after cardiac perfusion and ATP level in mouse retina homogenate was analyzed.Results The RGCs survival rate was significantly higher in Ngb mice compared with WT mice in 5.0,7.5 and 10.0 mmol/L glutamic acid treatcd groups (t =2.810,3.020,3.110,P＜ 0.01).IOP of WT+ MB single injection group and Ngb-Tg+ MB single injection group were elevated in comparison with the WT control group and WT+PBS injection group and the high IOP remained for 4 weeks.Ngb level was raised in the WT+MB single injection group on the third day following injection,but the Ngb concentration remained a high level in the Ngb-Tg mice during the period of the experiment duration.The RGCs apoptosis rate was elevated both in the WT mice and Ngb-Tg mice 1,4,8 weeks after injection of MB,however,the cell apoptosis rate was higher in WT mice than that of Ngb-Tg mice(P＜0.05).DHE content in retina in the Ngb-Tg+MB single injection group was significantly lower than that in the WT+MB single injection group (t =3.212,P=0.008),and ATP content in retina was elevated in the Ngb-Tg+MB single injection group compared with WT+MB single injection group(t =2.864,P＜0.01).Conclusions It is suggested that Ngb might be a neuroprotective molecules against RGCs death by decreasing oxidative stress and improving mitochondria function.
