Objective To investigate the value of early quantified analysis of perinatal white matter injury by cranial ultrasound gray scale measurement. MethodsThe cranial ultrasound exam was performed in 152 newborns with different gestational age0 early after their birth. These newborns were divided into two groups: 104 newborns diagnosed as white matter injury within 7 days after birth were taken as patient group; while 48 newborns who were not were taken as control group. The gray scale values in the trigone of lateral ventricle of white matter were analyzed by medical image analysis system. The newborns in patient group accepted cranial ultrasound exam at one month after birth, the grey scale value and cyst in the white matter were recorded. Three to six months old, the cranial ultrasound exam was repeated to record the change of white matter volume, morphology of lateral ventricle and change of the cysts. When they were 1.5 to 2 years old, the neurological function were quantitatively evaluated with Gesell score, and the results were classified as normal and abnormal.The relationships between gray scale value and neuro-developmental outcome were analyzed with receiver operating characteristic curve.Results During neonatal period, the average gray scale values in severely injured group was 131.72±2.40, higher than that of mildly injured group (116.61±2.48), and which in mildly injury group was higher than that in control group (100.50±1.66) (q=4. 521 and 4. 492, P<0. 05). It was showed by receiver operating characteristic curve that gray scale value >114.37 could help to diagnose white matter injury, with the sensitivity of 0. 721 and the specificity of 0. 854; gray scale value >119.80 could help to diagnose severe white matter injury,with the sensitivity of 0. 716 and the specificity of 0. 776.As the gray scale value increased, the incidence of white matter volume decreased and the enlargement of lateral ventricle in the later period of injury increased. Patients with gray scale value > 130 tended to suffer from leucomalacia. During neonatal period, the incidence of abnormal neurodevelopment before 2 years old was 5.0% in patients with gray scale value < 110, while it was 27.8 % in the patients with gray scale value between 110 and 120, 47.8% in the patients with gray scale value > 120.Conclusions Quantified analysis of ultrasound gray scale value might be promising in early diagnosis of perinatal white matter injury through early judgement of the outcomes of white matter injury and forward neurodevelopment.

Objective: To study the relationship between dilated cardiomyopathy and nuclear lamina protein (LMNA) gene mutation in Kazak ethnics at Xinjiang area.
Methods: A Kazak familial dilated cardiomyopathy (FDCM) with 31 members was studied. In addition, 160 patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM) with 160 healthy controls were enrolled in our study, and they were divided into 4 groups: IDCM-Kazak, IDCM-Han and Control-Kazak, Control-Han.n=80 in each group. Peripheral blood DNA were extracted, 12 exons with nearby introns of LMNA gene were detected by PCR and the ampliifed products were sequenced and compared with the standard template of CHROMAS and BLAST software to identify mutation sites. LMNA mutation in both Kazak and Han IDCM patients were investigated.
Results: A novel LMNA mutation (insC, CGG→CCG) at exon 7 was identiifed in a FDCM proband, it caused an amino acid substitution as Arg to Pro, and a known LMNA polymorphism loci rs4641 (c.1362C>T His454His) was fund at exon 10. In addition, LMNA polymorphism loci rs4641 genotype distribution (χ2=5.16,P=0.036) and allele frequency (χ2=4.50,P=0.034) were statistically different between IDCM-Kazak group and Control-Kazak group; while such differences were no statistic meaning between IDCM-Han group and Control-Han group. Logistic regression analysis indicated that LMNA polymorphism loci rs4641 was related to IDCM occurrence in Kazak ethnics (P=0.025, OR=0.412, 95% CI 0.189-0.896).
Conclusion: LMNA polymorphism loci rs4641 was related to IDCM in Kazak ethnics at Xinjiang area, which might be susceptible loci for IDCM occurrence.

Objective To analyze the pathological and clinical characteristics of patients with idiopathic IgA nephropathy accompanied by vasculitic/crescentic lesion (IgA-V/C). Methods Data of 222 patients diagnosed as idiopathic IgA nephropathy by renal biopsy, among them 87 cases with vasculitic/crescenlic (V/C)lesion, from our department in 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Clinical and pathological data from patients with IgA-V/C were compared to those of non-IgA-V/C patients and of lupus nephritis (LN) patients with V/C lesion. Results Vasculitic/crescentic lesion was found in 39.19% (87/222) patients with idiopathic IgA nephropathy.And about( 14.08?12.75)% of the glomeruli was affected. It should be taken into account that there was no significant differences of clinical manifestations including blood pressure, urinary protein excretion between IgA-V/C group and non-IgA-V/C group .except serum creatinine(Scr)level which was significantly higher in IgA-V/C group. In addition, only 37.9% of IgA-V/C patients presented high Scr level,thus the lesion of V/C in idiopathic IgA nephropathy was easily overlooked. Patients with idiopathic IgA nephropathy were found to have higher percentage of glomerular sclerosis (64.86% vs 40.00%) and ratio of sclerostic glomeruli to total glomeruli [ (26.98 ?24.68)% vs (16.10 ?18.80)% ]as compared to LN group, which further predicated the progressing characteristics of IgA nephropathy. Conclusions Vasculitic/crescentic lesion is a quite common finding in idiopathic IgA nephropathy and often associated with no dramatically symptoms. It is possible for vasculitic/crescentic lesion to induce unmarked lose of nephron slowly and continually, so as to accelerate IgA nephropathy progression to end-stage renal failure.

Objective Folate receptors ( FRs) , overexpressed on the surface of a variety of tumor cells , are potential targets for tumor targeting therapy .This study aimed to prepare an FR-mediated drug nanocarrier with folate conjugated pullulan acetate ( FPA) to target chemotherapeutic agents to FR-overexpressed tumor cells and investigate its tumor-suppressing effect in vitro. Methods The cytotoxicity of epirubicin-loaded FPA nanoparticles ( FPA/EPI NP) against HepG2 and Hela cells was evaluated by MTS assay.The HepG2 and Hela cells were divided into five groups to be treated with NPs (NP control), chlorpromazine, chloro-quine, amiloride, and folate, respectively, followed by detection of the fluorescence intensity by flow cytometry . Results FPA/EPI NP was successfully formulated into NPs , with the mean particle size of (268.5 ±12.0) nm, by dialysis with an almost spherical shape . The drug-loading rate and entrapment rate of FPA/EPI NP were (6.45 ±1.04) and (72.45 ±11.50) %, respectively.The survival rates of the HepG2 and Hela cells were both >95%after 24 hours of incubation with FPA NP at 5, 40, 200, 400 and 1000μg/mL and 90.0%after 72 hours.The survival rates of the HepG2 cells treated with 5, 40, 200, 400 and 1000μg/mL FPA/EPI NP for 24 hours were (92.3 ±5.2), (70.4 ±4.6), (50.0 ±4.0), (41.1 ±4.1) and (27.0 ±3.6) %, respectively.Compared with the NP control group, the Hela cells of the chlorpromazine , amiloride and folate groups showed a significantly lower rate of NP uptake (P<0.05), and so did the HepG2 cells pretreated with chlorpromazine or amilo-ride (P<0.05).At 72 hours, the half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of FPA/EPI NP against HepG2 and Hela cells were 168 and 105μg/mL, respectively . Conclusion Clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis are involved in the internaliza-tion of FPA/EPI NP in HepG2 cells, while clathrin-and FR-mediated endocytosis in that of Hela cells .FPA NP may serve as a new drug carrier for tumor-targeted therapy .
