1.APE/Ref-1 protein and ischemia/reperfusion injury of neurons in the brain
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2000;0(12):-
Cerebral ischemia and the aftermath of reperfusion form a hypoxic/hyperoxic sequence of events that can trigger DNA damage in neurons of central nervous system. Neuronal apoptosis will happen without immediate DNA repair. APE/Ref-1 is a multifunctional protein involoved in DNA base excision repair pathway and in redox reguiation of DNA-binding activity of AP-1 family members, which may play an important role in protection of postischemic neuronal damage.

The special trichrome stain and immunocytochemical stain were used to show neurites, Schwann's cells in cultured pe-ripheral nerve tissue. The dorsal root ganglia(DRG) of rat were cultured on polypyrrole membrane for 2 weeks. Then, the cul-tured speciments were stained by special stain, which was composed of hematoxylin, fast green FCF. ehromotrope 2R and phos-photungstic acid; or by immunocytochemical stain with anti-S-100 protein and anti-neurofilament antibodies. In the specialtrichrome stained specimen the long processes from DRG were stained aquamarine blue; part of the cell nuclei on the processes orpolypyrrole membrane were stained red or purplish red, and the cytoplasm ashen. We testified that the long processes from DRGwere neurites and the cells which were purplish red nuclei and ashen cytoplasm were Schwann's cells in immunocytochemicalstain. The special staining could differentiate neurites and Schwann's cells in cultured peripheral nerve tissue.

PurposeSmart neuro attenuation correlation (SNAC) is a new method of calculated attention correction. This paper aims to evaluate the impact of SNAC on the quality and standardized uptake value of brain imaging with PET/CT.Materials and Methods Fifty-eight patients who underwent systematic scan with18F-FDG PET/CT were analyzed retrospectively. CT attenuation correlation (CTAC) and SNAC brain PET images were reconstructed respectively. All images were analyzed by visual assessment and Scenium software and the results of the two methods were compared with regard to image contrast, homogeneity and mean SUV at different cerebral regions. Moreover, the correlation of the mean SUV of the two methods was further analyzed.Results There was no significant visual difference of contrast and uniformity between SNAC and CTAC. The Scenium analysis shows that the contrast of SNAC images were slightly higher than that of CTAC, but the difference were not statistically significant (4.19±1.11vs. 4.08±1.03,t=0.764,P>0.05). The uniformity of SNAC images were slightly lower than that of CTAC (1.00vs. 0.83). The mean SUV at various brain regions measured by SNAC was greater than that by CTAC, but both were significantly correlated (r=0.978,P<0.01), and the linear regression analysis also demonstrated that the results were consistent (R2=0.959). Compared with that measured by CTAC, the average percentage difference of SUV measured by SNAC was 8.45±4.71, but it varied greatly at 10 brain regions (-8.56-27.93). The analysis of variance presented significant differences in the average percentage difference of SUV at different brain regions (F=119.084,P<0.01), while the average percentage difference at the outer slices was greater than that at the central slices. Conclusion No significant difference exists in image quality between SNAC and CTAC. Although the mean SUV at different brain regions measured by SNAC may increase by various degrees, it is significantly associated with the results measured by CTAC. Moreover, SNAC simplifies the process of examination and reduces radiation dose, which is beneficial to patients as a qualitative method.

Objective To evaluate the clinical classification and timing of surgery in the treatment of gallstone acute pancreatitis(GAP). Method The clinical data of 109 patients with GAP admitted to the Department of General Surgery of our hospital were retrospectively analysed. Result and Conclusion Based on the analysis of the treatment methods and its outcome, GAP should be divided into four types according to ampullary obstruction and severity of acute pancreatitis. (1)Non-obstructive mild type GAP was treated mainly in conservative way.(2)Obstructive mild type GAP could be treated conservatively for 36 hours after onset. If the obstruction did not resolve, surgery should be done. (3)Obstructive severe type GAP was treated mainly in conservative way, and the timing of surgery depends on whether necrosis complicated with infection. (4)Obstructive severe type GAP: EST should be done first. If EST is not convenient to be done, an early surgery should be done after short period of supportive therapy. Special attention should be paid to, if suppurative cholecystitis or cholangitis presented, an emergency surgery should be done. Finally, for all the GAP treated by conservative treatment, an elective surgery should be performed to resolve the biliary disease.
