OBJECTIVETo study clinicopathological features, diagnosis, differential diagnosis of oral Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), retrospective clinicopathologic study was carried on and a variety of immune phenotype were detected.

METHODSThe clinicopathological features of 29 cases of oral LCH were analyzed. The immunohistochemical staining of S-100 protein, CD1a, CD83 and Ki-67 were used in above cases by immunohistochemical streptavidin-biotin peroxidase (SP) and Elivison two-step method. Statistical analysis was adopted for the results.

RESULTSOf the 29 cases of LCH, the expression of S-100 protein and CD1a were positive in 24 cases and negative in 5 cases, so 5 cases were excluded from the diagnosis of LCH. Among 24 cases of LCH, 15 patients were male and 9 were female. The median age was 7.50 years. 14 lesions were in the mandible, 5 were in the maxilla and 5 involved the mandible and maxilla. 9 cases were in stage I, 13 in stage II and 2 in stage III, according to Bartnick classification. Immunohistochemistry showed all 24 cases staining for S-100 protein and CD1a were positive. Comparing with maxillofacial lesions involved soft tissue, Ki-67 positive rate was lower and CD83 positive rate was higher in maxillofacial single bone lesion.

CONCLUSIONThe immunohistochemical staining of S-100 protein and CD1a are important for the diagnosis of LCH. Maxillofacial bone single LCH might have lower proliferative activity and a higher state of maturity. Maxillofacial LCH involved soft tissue might have a higher proliferative activity and a lower state of maturity.

Objective To investigate the role of microRNA(miR)-567 in the proliferation,migration and cell cycle of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)through regulation of cyclin dependent kinase 8(CDK8)and its clinical relevance.Methods Tumor tissues and adjacent tissues of 40 NSCLC patients were collected,and the expressions of miR-567 and CDK8 were detected by real-time quantitative fluorescent PCR(qRT-PCR).miR-NC mimic,miR-567 mimic,oe-NC,and oe-CDK8 were transfected into A549 and H1975 cells.The ex-pressions of miR-567 and CDK8 were detected using qRT-PCR.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 method,and cell migration was detected by Transwell assay.Cell cycle changes were detected by flow cytome-try.The targeting of miR-567 and CDK8 was detected by luciferase reporter gene assay.Results In the tumor tissues of NSCLC patients,the expression of miR-567 was decreased,while the expression of CDK8 was in-creased,and the two were negatively correlated(P＜0.05).In A549 and H1975 cells,miR-567 mimic group was compared with miR-NC mimic group,the expression of miR-567 was increased,the expression of CDK8 was decreased,the proliferation and migration levels of cells were decreased,the proportion of G1 phase was increased,and the proportion of S phase was decreased.The fluorescence intensity of miR-567 mimic group was lower than that of miR-NC mimic group in normal CDK8.miR-567 mimic+oe-CDK8 group was compared with miR-567 mimic+oe-NC group,the expression of CDK8 was increased,the proliferation and migration levels of cells were increased,the proportion of cells in G1 phase was decreased,and the proportion of cells in S phase was increased.Conclusion miR-567 can inhibit NSCLC proliferation and migration by targeting CDK8 expression and controlling tumor cell arrest in the S phase.

Objective To discuss the improving effect of tenuigenin on learning and memory ability and its influence on cerebral monoamine neurotransmitters in senescence-accelerated mice prone 8(SAMP8).Methods The senescence-accelerated mice(SAMP8)were chosen as subjects,and then randomly divided into the model group,tenuigenin group and Donepezil group.SAMR1 were chosen into the the control group.After intragastrical treatment for 3 months,the learning and memory ability and the levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid(5-HIAA),dopamine(DA)and norepinephrine(NE)were detected respectively by applying Morris water maze and high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).Results In the tenuigenin group the hidden platform test showed that the escape latency was,respectively,(43.56±10.87)s,(41.37±9.71)s,(37.62±10.05)s and (41.60±13.61)s from the 2nd to 5th day,and the reversed test showed that the escape latency was (37.10±14.04)s on the 9th day,which were all shortened compared with those in the model group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).In the tenuigenin group the level of 5-HT,5-HIAA,DA or NE was,respectively,(5.95±0.93)mmol/L,(4.43±1.08)mmoL/L,(2.61±0.87)mmol/L and(9.44±3.76)mmol/L,which all increased compared with those in the model group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Tenuigenin can improve the learning and memory ability of SAMP8,and the effect may related to that it can regulate the level of cerebral monoamine neurotransmitters.

Objective:To investigate the in-hospital diagnosis and treatment time for patients with acute ischemic stroke in Hebei Province.Methods:The data of in-hospital diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke in Hebei Province were collected and analyzed, and then compared with the NINDS recommended time. Methods The data of in-hospital diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke in Hebei Province were collected and analyzed, and then compared with the NINDS recommended time.Results:The median time in hospital diagnosis and treatment was significantly longer than the NINDS recommended time (104 min vs. 60 min, P<0.001). The median time from completing the cranial CT scan to getting the CT report differed significantly to the NINDS recommended time (30 min vs. 20 min, P<0.001). The median time from getting the CT report to obtaining treatment was 43 min, which was significantly longer than the NINDS recommended 15 min ( P<0.001). The median time of in-hospital diagnosis and treatment for emergency service system (EMS) patients was 101 min, which was shorter than that for non-EMS patients (104 min, P=0.01). The median time of in-hospital diagnosis and treatment in Tertiary Hospital was 105 min, which was significantly longer than that in Secondary Hospital 99 min, ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The in-hospital emergency treatment delay in Hebei Province was relatively serious for patients with acute ischemic stroke. The time between obtaining the head CT report to beginning thrombolytic therapy is the most important factor in hospital delay. EMS can shorten in-hospital delay for acute ischemic stroke. Compared with the tertiary hospital, the secondary hospital has shorter in-hospital delay time.
