Neurolymphomatosis(NL) is characterized by lymphomatous infiltration of the peripheral nervous system. We report a case of neurolymphomatosis(NL) which was confirmed by sural nerve biopsy. Sural nerve specimen from a 49-year-old female patient with weakness of limbs was examined with routine histochemical and immunohistochemistry staining, in which the first antibodies against CD3, CD20, CD45, CD45RO and CD68 were used. Numerous T-lymphoma cells invaded in the adipose tissue of epineurium of sural nerve. The nerve biopsy showed marked axonal degeneration of myelinated fibers. The clinical and histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis of neurolymphomatosis.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of intravitreal injection of ranibizumab combined with vitrectomy for the treatment of neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Methods The clinical data of 21 NVG patients who had underwent vitrectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were treated with intravitreal injection of ranibizumab 0.5 mg, then were given the vitrectomy after 3 to 5 d after treatment. The whole retinal photocoagulation was performed during the operation. Cataract surgery was combined in 16 patients, and ciliary photocoagulation was combined in another 15 patients. All patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months, and the intraocular pressure, visual acuity and neovascularization of iris (NVI) were observed. Results The rate of NVI symptoms resolving completely 3 weeks after operation was 80.95％(17/21). The intraocular pressure 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after operation was significantly lower than that before operation: (18.6 ± 5.1), (14.3 ± 4.8), (12.8 ± 4.4), (15.1 ± 3.7) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. (42.8 ± 7.3) mmHg, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Two months after operation, 2 cases were not able to control by chemicals, and were treated with transscleral cyclophotocoagulation. Six months after operation, the intraocular pressure was completely controlled in 15 cases, and conditionally controlled in 6 cases. No ocular hypotension occurred. The visual acuity was not improved in 4 cases, but the rest were improved in different degrees. Conclusions For the patients of NVG combined with vitreous hemorrhage and obvious proliferation, intravitreal injection of ranibizumab in the first place, and then combined with vitrectomy, whole retinal photocoagulation and ciliary photocoagulation can obtain good effect.

Objective:To determine if suitable electric pulses-mediated DNA and DNA and bupivacaine complexes delivery technologies could enhance effects of botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A) DNA vaccines in mouse model. Methods:Vaccination of mice i.m. with plasmid DNA replicon vaccine pSCARSHc and conventional plasmid DNA vaccine pcDNASHc following electric pulses and with DNA and bupivacaine complexes. AHc-specific group antibody ELISA titers and lymphocyte proliferative responses of mice were detected and IgG1 and IgG2a isotype profiles were assayed. Results:Immune effects of DNA vaccines were enhanced following electric pulses and bupivacaine delivery. Effects of DNA vaccines following electric pulses were better than that of DNA vaccines formulated with bupivacaine,and the combined delivery technology of electric pulses and bupivacaine induced the highest level of specific antibodies and lymphocyte proliferative responses. Plasmid DNA replicon vaccine pSCARSHc induced relatively higher AHc-specific antibodies and lymphocyte proliferative responses in immunized Balb/c mice than conventional plasmid DNA vaccine pcDNASHc in these DNA delivery technologies. And vaccine pSCARSHc induced Th2/Th1-type immune responses with a general bias to Th2-type,and vaccine pcDNASHc induced Th2-type immune responses. Conclusion:Suitable electric pulses-mediated DNA and DNA and bupivacaine complexes delivery technologies could enhance effects of BoNT/A DNA vaccines in mouse model. Therefore,the methods described here potentially provide suitable strategies in developing an efficacious vaccine against botulinum neurotoxin serotype A.

This study is to investigate the sedative and hypnotic effects of a novel compound H1208. The sedative activity of H1208 was investigated by recording the spontaneous locomotor activity of mice. The hypnotic property was evaluated by the latency and duration of sleep (loss of righting reflex) in mice and the effect of hypnotics on sleep pattern of electroencephalogram were studied in conscious, freely moving mice with chronically implanted electrodes. The brain monoamine neurotransmitters levels in mice were measured by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection. The spontaneous locomotor activity was decreased by 56.7% and 80.2% in H1208 (5 and 25 mg x kg(-1), ip) treated mice, respectively. The loss of righting reflex was directly induced in mice after H1208 (60 mg x kg(-1), ip) administration. The non-rapid eye movement sleep increased significantly by 131% and 259%, respectively, within 3 hours after H1208 (30 and 60 mg x kg(-1), ip) administration. However, the rapid eye movement sleep decreased significantly. The contents of DA in the striatum and cortex and 5-HT in the cortex decreased significantly. These results demonstrated that H1208 has potent sedative and hypnotic effects, which may be closely related to the decreased contents of DA and 5-HT in mouse brain.

Objective To understand the changes and possible mechanism of the blood brain barrier(BBB) permeability induced by tumor necrosis factor(TNF-?) in vitro.Methods BBB model was established by coculturing allogenic brain microvessel end othelial cell(BMEC) and astrocyte(AS).The BBB model was divided randomly into normal control group,TNF-? group and Y-27632 pretreatment group.The changes of BBB permeability were evaluated by Gamma radioim muno assay counter.Results The Gamma radioimmuno assay indicated that the marker,~(125)I-BSA,across the BBB model in vitro was significantly increased after TNF-? treatment compared with control group,Y-27632 pretreatmen could prevent the permeability of BBB induced by TNF-?(P

Objective To explore the role of pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) siRNA in the radiosensitivity of human lung cancer A549 cells.Methods PKM2 siRNA was synthesized according to the coding sequence of PKM2 mRNA and then was transferred into A549 cells with lipofectamine.The expressions of PKM2 gene and protein was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.The experiments were divided into PKM2 siRNA interference group,siRNA negative control group,and blank control group.The cells of each group were exposure to 6 MV X-rays in different dose.Radiosensitivity was evaluated by colony formation assay.Flow cytometry was applied to analyze cell cycle distribution and apoptosis.Data are representative of three independent experiments.Results Ccompared with blank control cells,the expressions of PKM2 gene and protein in the PKM2 siRNA transferred A549 cell was efficiently diminished (t =20.91,47.00,P ＜0.01) with inhibition rates of (70.27 ± 1.38)％ and (70.42 ± 1.18) ％,respectively.Compared with control,PKM2 siRNA transfection significantly decreased the D0,Dq,N and SF2 values (t =43.82,28.44,15.60,29.63,P ＜ 0.01) and hence yield a sensitization enhancement ratio (SER) of 1.27.In addition,the percentage of G2/M phase cells in the siRNA group and irradiated group were both significantly higher than that of the blank control group (t =8.35,27.87,P ＜ 0.01).The combined treatments of PKM2 siRNA interference and irradiation arrested more cells in the G2/M phase compared to either treatment alone.The apoptosis rate of siRNA group was not dramatically different from that of blank control group.The apoptosis rate of irradiation group was higher than that of blank control group (t =23.99,P ＜ 0.01),and the combined treatments of siRNA and irradiation enhanced the apoptotic rate compared to either treatment alone (t=9.42,65.21,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Specific blockage of PKM2 expression by gene silencing could enhance the sensitivity of human lung cancer A549 cells to radiotherapy in vitro,which may due to the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induction after irradiation.
