Objective To investigate efficiency and distribution of gene delivery to the injured tendons by microinjeetion and tissue reactions caused by different vectors. Methods By using a mi-croinjection technique, 10μl of pCMV-EGFP, pCAGGS-EGFP, AAV2-EGFP and Ad5-EGFP harboring enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) gene were respectively injected to two sites of the proximal stump of 48 transected digital flexor tendons in 18 chickens. At days 3, 7, 14 and 21, the tendons wereharvested for observing distribution and expression of EGFP under a fluorescence microscope by using fro-zen tissue sections. The tendon sections were also stained with hematoxylin and eosin to examine inflam-mation caused by these vectors. The other 24 normal flexor tendons were served as controls. ResultsCompared with normal tendon tissues, the EGFP expression was observed in tendons at days 3, 7, 14 and21 after injection. The EGFP expression was observed at day 3 and reached peak at day 7 for all vectors.The EGFP expression was decreased at day 14 but seldom seen at day 21. EGFP was distributed evenly inthe injected tendon segment adjacent to the cut level. The EGFP expression in the tendons injected withAAV2-EGFP and Ad5-EGFP was higher than that with pCMV-EGFP and pCAGGS-EGFP injection, withinsignificant statistical difference upon the EGFP expression between AAV2-EGFP and Ads-EGFP vec-tors. Tissue reactions of the tendons caused by the liposome-plasmid vector ( including pCMV-EGFP and pCAGGS-EGFP) were the most prominent among all vectors. Infiltration of inflammatory cells, chiefly lymphocytes and neutrophilic granulocytes, were found. The tendons injected with AAV2 vectors presen-ted gentle inflammatory reactions. Conclusions Mieroinjection to two sites of each tendon stump deliv-ers the transgene to the entire tendon segment adjacent to the cut. Gene delivery by the AAV2 and Ad5 vectors has the highest cfficiency among four vectors tested, when expression level peaks at day 7 after in-jection and AAV2 vector causes the slightest tissue reactions in the tendons, indicating that the AAV2 vector is a promising gene delivery vector and microinjection is practical for tendon gene therapy.

Objective To investigate the influence of fasudil on the epithelialmesenchymal transdifferentiation of renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic rats and to explore the mechanism. Methods Wistar mts were randomly divided into three groups:control,diabetes and fasudil-treatment.All the rots were sacrificed after three months of feeding with or without fasudil.Pathological changes of the glomeruli and renal interstitium were studied by periodic acidSchiff'S staining and Masson staining,respectively.Expression of ROCKI,α-SMA,E-cadherin and the distribution of β-catenin was examined by immunohistochemistry.Changes in the MYPT1 phosphorylation profile and α-SMA,E-cadherin and membrane β-catenin expression were detected bv Western blot.Changes in the levels of ROCKI,E-cadherin and total β-eatenin mRNA expression were analyzed by real-time PCR. Results Fasudil treatment notably attenuated renal interstitial fibrosis in diabetic rats.Compared to the control rats.diabetic rats showed an elevated phosphorylation of MYFF1(P<0.01),increased expression of α-SMA(P<0.01),decreased expression of E-cadherin and membrane β-catenin(P<0.01,respectively)and increased expression of ROCKI,total β-catenin mRNA(P<0.01,respectively),decreased expression of E-cadherin mRNA(P<0.01 ). Fasudil treatment for diabetic rats attenuated MYPT1 phosphorylation (P<0.01), decreased α-SMA expression (P<0.01), increased E-cadherin and membrane (β-catenin expression (P<0.01, respectively), and reduced ROCKI, total β-catenin mRNA expression (P <0.01, respectively), increased expression of E-cadherin mRNA (P<0.01). Conclusions Fasudil may reduce the epithelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation and renal interstitial fibrosis in diabetic rats through the inhibition of ROCK activity. Such effect further facilitates the recovery of the cell-cell adhesion among renal tubular epithelial cells and the formation of adhesion complex.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of the 40 Hz auditory steady state response (40-Hz ASSR) in the short-term prognosis of patients with brainstem stroke.Methods The 40-Hz ASSR and brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) examinations were recorded and graded from 36 patients with brainstem stroke admitted in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Tue end point of short-term prognostic evaluation was at the time of leaving the NICU. Tue patients with brainstem stroke were divided into the survival group (n =21) and the death group (including brain death,n = 15). The correlation between the grade of the 40-Hz ASSR or BAEP and the short-term prognosis was analyzed. Results The grade of the 40-Hz ASSR (r=0.571,P =0.000) or BAEP (r =0.441,P =0.001 ) was significantly correlated with the short-term prognosis in patients with brainstem stroke. The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of the 40-Hz ASSR were 60.00％,100％ and 83.33％,respectively,and those for BAEP were 66. 67％,71.43％ and 69. 44％,respectively. Conclusions Tue 40-Hz ASSR has a certain short-term prognostic value in patients with brainstem stroke. The higher the grade of 40-Hz ASSR is,the more serious the illness,and the worse the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the role of transoralsonography guiding fine?needle aspiration biopsy in the diagnosis of retropharyngeal or parapharyngeal masses identified on the CT, MRI or PET?CT images of treated patients with malignant carcinoma. Methods From 2002 to 2013,this study recruited fifty?five patients with a history of cancer, of which 50 were treated with radiation treatment, including 46 nasopharyngeal carcinoma, 3 esophagus squamous cell carcinoma and1 lung apex carcinoma. There were 4 patients with a history of 1 thyroid papillary carcinoma, 1 buccal mucosa squamous cell carcinoma,1 glottis squamous cell carcinoma and 1 sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma treated with surgery. The rest one patient with nasal olfactory neuroblastoma was treated by postoperative radiation.
