Objective To study the effect of Schwann cell enclosed by antibody of neural cell adhesion molecule L1 on injured spinal cord. Methods Over 98% of the purity of Schwann cells obtained from bilateral sciatic nerves of 2 days newborn SD rats, the concentration of Schwann cells was about 2.5?104 /?l. The Schwann cells were enclosed by the antibody of neural cell adhesion molecule L1 using co-culture. The adult SD rats (weight 200-250 g) were used to establish the model of spinal cord injury by hemi-transection at the left side of T10 level. The animals were divided into three groups; the SC group was transplanted with 20 ?l suspension Schwann cells; the anti-L1 group with 20 ?l Schwann cells enclosed by antibody of neural cell adhesion molecule L1; and the control group was injected solely with normal saline to the injured cord. Eight weeks later regenerated neural axons were investigated through horseradish peroxiase HRP retrograde trace immunohistochemistry of neurofilament and Western blot. Results Few regenerated neural axons appeared in the control group; some of regenerated neural axons could be observed in anti-L1 group; plentiful and bulky regenerated neural axons were found in SC group. The group with antibody had significant less HRP positive neurons and neural axons than the group without antibody. Western blot showed that the quantity of neurofilament in the anti-L1 group was only two thirds of the SC group. Conclusion Schwann cell-derived neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is able to enhance the neural axon regeneration of injured spinal cord.

Background Optic neuritis is closely associated with multiple sclerosis (MS).Its pathogenesis is uncompletely clear,and less basic researches are carried out at home and abroad. Objective This study was to reveal the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) in the optic nerve of rat with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) and to provide a theoretical evidence for the research of the relationship of optic neuritis with MS. Methods Fifty clean Wistar rats were randomized into the control group and immune 8,12,18 and 25 days groups.Myelencephalon was collected from 5 guinea pigs to prepare the homogenate and mixed with the isovolumetric complete Freud' s adjuvant (CFA).The 0.5 ml mixed antigen emulsifier was subcutancously injected into the 4 maps together with Bordetella pertussis 0.2 ml under the cutancous of dorsalis pedis at 0 and 48 hours to induce the EAE.Behavior of the rats was evaluated to score the neurological function.The optical nerve sections were prepared 8,12,18 and 25 days after immunology for the histopathological examination,and immunochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the expression of MBP in optic nerve.The use of the animals complied with the Regulation for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results The disorder of motor nerve was seen 12 days following the immune,and the clinical neural functional scores were significantly higher 12 day and peaked on 18 days myelination and then gradually reduced.The histopathological examination showed that the irregular alignment of neural fiber was found at 12 days,and changes of cellular structure,edema of neural shaft bunch were observed at 18 days.However,the abnormal cells were significantly less 25 days following the immune.Immunochemistry showed that the MBP was expressed mainly in the myelination of optic nerve fibers.The numbers of positive cells for MBP were (115.75±26.49)cells/5 fields at the 12th day,showing a significant lowing in comparison with (167.44±22.49)cells/5 fields of control group (t=4.537,P<0.05 ).The positive cells were lest at the 18th day with the values ( 75.57 ± 34.54) cells/5 fields ( t =6.362,P<0.01 ).At the 25th day,positive cells increased to ( 117.63 ± 13.78) cells/5 fields,which still was lower than those of the control group ( t =4.068,P<0.05 ).Western blot assay illuminated that with the prolong of immune time,MBP/β-actin ratio in optic nerve was gradually reduced and followed the same pattern at the 12th day( t =4.639,P<0.05 ).At 18 days after immune in comparison with the control group,the expression of MBP/β-actin ratio in optic nerve was the least (t=8.427,P<0.01). Conclusions MBP can be degraded in rat optic nerve.This is a further evidence that optic neuritis is a severe demyelination disease.It is clearly related to MS.

Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a breakthrough in the field of hepatobiliary surgery.The remnant liver regeneration was stimulated during the first stage of the operation,and the radical resection of the tumor could be successfully carried out during the second stage of the operation.ALPPS is a new approach for patients with tumor which is previously considered unresectable during one hospital stay.In April 2014,a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the right liver and liver cirrhosis was admitted to the Southwest Hospital.Preoperative examination confirmed that the ratio of the remnant liver volume to the standard liver volume was 26.9%,which indicated that the patient was inappropriate to receive radical resection of HCC.Therefore,totally laparoscopic ALPPS was applied.In the first stage of the operation,the portal vein ligation associated with liver hanging tape placement and in situ splitting of liver were carried out after hanging the Glisson's pedicle under the laparoscope.Thirteen days after the first stage of the operation,the ratio of the remnant liver volume to the standard liver volume was 40.6%.The second stage of the operation was carried out 14 days after the first stage of the operation.The right hepatic pedicle and right hepatic vein were transected with a stapler.The tumor was removed after full mobilization of the right liver.The distance between the resection margin to the tumor was 1.5 cm.No complications were detected after the first stage of the operation,while the patient was complicated with pleural effusion after the second stage of the operation and was cured by pleural puncture and drainage.The patient was discharged at postoperative day 9 and followed up at postoperative month 1.The results of follow-up confirmed that the hepatic function was normal,and no mass occupying lesions and pleural effusion were detected.Totally laparoscopic ALPPS is safe and feasible with satisfactory short-term efficacy.

Objective To explore the effects of lycopene on interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression and motor function after spinal cord injury in rats. Methods 36 healthy adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (A), methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MP) treatment group (B) and lycopene treatment group (C) with 12 rats in each group, and spinal cord injury model at T9 was established with modified Allen's technique (10 g×25 mm). 30 minutes after modeling, group A received no treatment, group B was injected MP 30 mg/ kg, group C was given lycopene 20 mg/kg. They were tested with inclined plate test 1 day, 3 days and 7 days after injury. The expression of IL-6 was examined with immunohistochemistry, then. Results The inclined plate test scores were higher in the group C than in the group A 1 day and 7 days after injury (P<0.05), and in the group B than in the group A 1 day, 3 days and 7 days after injury (P<0.05). The expression of IL-6 was significantly lower in the groups B and C than in the group A 1 day, 3 days, 7 days after injury (P<0.001). Conclusion Lycopene can inhibit the expression of IL-6 in acute spinal cord injury to reduce the inflammation and facilitate the recovery of nerve and motor function.
