The action mechanism of matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) in the genesis, development and degeneration of haemangioma was investigated by detecting their expression in the tissue of haemangioma in different phases by using the immunohistochemistry. Fifty paraffin-embedded specimens of skin capillary haemangioma were collected, which were documented in the Department of Pathology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from 2000 to 2006. All samples were stained by regular HE method, and proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was tested by immunohistochemical S-P method. The samples were classified according to the Mulliken criteria and the expression pattern of PCNA. Immunohistochemical S-P method was applied to detect the expression of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 in proliferative and degenerative phases of cutaneous capillary haemangioma, and in normal skin tissues. In combination with the detection of the expression of factor VIII-related antigen, it was verified that in haemangioma tissues, the cells expressing MMP-2 and TIMP-2 were vascular endothelial cells. The MMP-2 and TIMP-2 expression was quantitatively analyzed by image analysis system (HPIAS-1000), and one-way ANOVA(107) and SNK(q) test were done to analyze average absorbance (A) and positive area rate of immunohistochemically positive particles by using SPSS11.5. The results showed: (1) Among 50 samples of haemangioma, there were 26 proliferative haemangiomas, and 24 degenerative haemangiomas, respectively; (2) The expression of MMP-2 was weak in normal vascular endothelial cells, cytoplasm of connective tissues and extracellular matrix around blood vessels. The expression of MMP-2 in proliferative group was significantly higher than in degenerative group and control group (normal skin) (P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the latter two groups; (3) TIMP-2 was highly expressed in normal tissues, degenerative vascular endothelial cells, cytoplasm of connective tissues and extracellular matrix around blood vessels. The expression level of TIMP-2 in proliferative phase was significantly lower than in degenerative phase (P<0.05), and the expression of TIMP-2 in proliferative phase was significantly different from that in degenerative phase and normal tissues (P<0.05). It was concluded that in proliferative phase of haemangioma, MMP-2 may promote over-proliferation of endothelial cells of haemangioma, and in degenerative phase, TIMP-2 can inhibit the proliferation of endothelial cells of haemangioma. The two substances play important roles in the genesis, development and degeneration of haemangiomas.

Objective This study aimed to establish an anatomic basis for the microscopic surgical anatomy of the cavemous sinus via the extended transsphenoidal approach.Methods Simulated surgery via extended transsphenoidal ap-proach was performed on seven adult cadaver heads with red--colored latex injected arteries.The cavernous segment of the ICA and its branch vessels and its relationship with cranial nerve were exposed and its anatomic parameters were measured under microscope.Results The tuberculum sellae,clivus,sellar base,ICA prominence,and optic nerve prominence are the important bone landmarks to define the surgical area.The average of the extent of bone removal of extended transsphe-noidal approach is 37.6 mm(range:28.7 mm~44.0 mm).Conclusions The bone removal from sellar base to the media edge of the foramen rotundum and over the ICA prominence can effectively expose the entire unilateral cavernous sinus.The microscopic cavernous sinus surgery via the extended transsphenoidal approach is an optimal surgical approach for the le-sions that invade the cavernous sinus from sella.

Objective:To study the effect of sulforaphane(SFN) on the growth of human bladder cancer cell and its mechanism in vitro. Method:Morphological characteristics of T24 cell nucleus induced by SFN were observed by AO/EB fluorescein staining .The effect of SFN on the T24 cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry. The expression of TrxR at the transcriptional and translational levels were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot methods respectively. Results:(1) After the cells were treated with 10 ?mol/L and 20 ?mol/L SFN for 24 h and 48 h, nuclear fragmentation and apoptotic body were seen under fluorescence microscope. (2) SFN could block the cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase showed by flow cytometry. Moreover, the treatment of 20 ?mol/L SFN for 48h could cause the appearance of sub-G1 before G0/G1 phase. (3) The expression of TrxR mRNA were increased by the treatment of 10 ?mol/L SFN for 4 h, 10 h,24 h ,compared with the control group. Furthermore ,the treatment with high dose SFN (20 ?mol/L ) for 10h or 24 h could induce the expression of TrxR mRNA more significantly . (4)The expression of TrxR protein in the 10 ?mol/L SFN for 24 h group was augmented compared with the control group , and aftertreatment with 20 ?mol/L SFN for 8 h and 24 h, its expression was significantly higher than that in the control group . Conclusion:SFN can inhibit the growth of T24 cell ,induce apoptosis and arrest T24 cell in G0/G1 phase. Its mechanism is associated with the induction of TrxR both at the transcriptional and translational levels.
