Objective To investigate the relationship of the chemical coding enteric nervous system of the mice and expression for neurotransmittor of enteric primary afferent neurons for Nociceptors.Methods Immunocytochemical and morphometric techniques were used to quantify the distribution of IB4-containing neurons in mice enteric nervous system using three mice chiocing every vision 50 neurons undering confocal microscopy IB4 immunolabelling and colocalized with calretinin and lectin B4.Results IB4 being binded to primary afferent neurons of enteric pleuxes happend in small intestin and colon of mice,where it was selective for nociceptive neurons.IB4 revealed large round or oval(Dogiel type II)neurons,type I neurons with prominent laminar dendrites and small neurons of myenteric ganglia.The type II neurons were immunoreactive for calretinin,and some type I neurons were immunoreactive for nitric oxide synthase.Most neurons in the submucosal ganglia bound IB4,and some of these were vasoactive intestinal peptide immunoreactive.Conclusion The results indicate that IB4 labels specific subgroups of enteric neurons in the enteric nervous system of the mice.These include intrinsic primary afferent neurons,but other neurons,including secretomotor neurons,are labeled.The results suggest that IB4 is not a specific label for enteric nociceptive neurons.

Objective To explore the associations of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and the efficacy of labetalol therapy. Methods Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia (experimental group) and 103 healthy gravidas (control group) were recruited from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures in gravidas with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose (100 mg, one dose per eight hours) and effectively controlled the blood pressures, it would be considered to be valid (n=75), otherwise it would be viewed as an invalid treatment. Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686 and rs3892097) in the gravidas were analyzed by TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the experimental and control groups, and the valid and invalid labetalol treatment groups. Chi-square test, analysis of variance and LSD test were used as statistical methods. Results The gravidas in both experimental and control groups were AA genotype in CYP2C9 gene rs1057910, TT genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs35742686 and CC genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs3892097. Frequencies of CC and CT genotypes in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103);56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2=6.707], and higher C allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 was also observed in the experimental group [46.2% (97/210) vs 35.9% (74/206), χ2=4.529] (all P<0.05). No statistical differences in maternal age, diastolic pressure, body mass index before pregnancy, serum triglyceride, creatinine and neonatal birth weight were observed among women with CC, CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group (all P>0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5±2.1) vs (29.5±1.8) and (29.8±2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2±9.3) vs (20.3±10.4) and (22.5±7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 hours urine protein (LSD test, all P<0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 in invalid labetalol treatment group was higher than that in valid labetalol treatment group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2=8.351, P=0.004]. Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of early-onset severe pre-eclampsia.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate evidence foundation of phamracogenetics personalized medication,and to provide refer-ence for clinical application. METHODS:Using“phamracogenetics”“pharmacogenomics”and“gene polymorphism”as key words,related literatures and clinical guideline were retrieved from PubMed,CNKI,Wanfang database,and analyzed in respects of involved gene,site and drug types,etc. Evidences of package inserts of phamracogenetics biomarker were evaluated by using phamracogenetics practice and prevention evaluation guideline. RESULTS:8 276 papers,25 guidelines and 166 drug package in-serts are available for analysis. The phamracogenetics literatures mostly focus on the relationship between some one gene and differ-ent drugs. In guidelines,some one specific gene can guide clinical application of multiple drugs in different fields. In drug package inserts,general level of clinical evidence is not high;detectable biomarkers is inadequate in category,and detection rate is only 38.06% besides targeting preparation. CONCLUSIONS:Under the condition of low clinical evidence level the detection of pharma-cogenetics biomarker should be conducted carefully,and basic study should be further strengthened.

ObjectiveAnalyzing the left atrium and pulmonary vein morphologicallv by 64 multislice spiral CT(MSCT)scan to guide the catheter ablation of Atrial fibrillation.MethodsTwo hundred and thirty-two patients(146 cases in atrial fibrillation group and 86 cases in control group)received 64 MSCT examination of the left atrium and pulmonary vein.The incidence of anatomical variation of pulmonary vein was compared between atrial fibrillation group and control group. For each group,the anatomical morphology ot every pulmonary vein and the auricle of left atrium was analyzed, the diameter of the orifice of each pulmonary vein and the size of left atrium were measured.ResultsSixty-four MSCT of left atrium and pulmonary vein could demonstrate detailed connecting type between left atrium and pulmonary Veins and the possible anatomieal variation. Anatomical variation of pulmonary vein in this study accounted for 16.8% (39/232)of total sample. For both groups,orifices of pulmonary veins appeared oval and their superoinferior diameters were larger than their anteroposterior diameters. There was significant difference in the inner diameter of left atrium between atrial fibrillation group and control group[atrial fibrillation group:(39.47±8.98)mm,control group:(36.94 ±5.49)mm,P=0.02],while there was no difference in the diameters of orifices ot puhnonary veins between two groups [ superoinferior diameters of pulmonary veins in atrial fibrillation group:left-up(18.15±1.35)mm,left-down(16.96 ±1.18)mm,right-up(17.50±

The survival rate of cancer patients was improved due to the development of cancer treatment techniques, and thus the fertility protection for young female cancer patients has attracted increasing attention. Radiotherapy, as one of the comprehensive cancer treatment, could cause ovarian damage in adolescent and child-bearing women, which leads to fertility decline and a series of side effects. Radiation can cause ovarian damage not only by acting on biological macromolecules directly, but also by increasing oxidative stress between oocytes and ovarian granulosa cells indirectly. At present, the fertility preservation of female cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy mainly includes physical protection, drug protection and biological protection. Recently, the development of new technologies for the preservation of fertility in female cancer patients has also brought new hope, including factors such as protective effects, patient age, and the selection of specific cancer treatment measures, which are the main considerations in the selection process of fertility preservation measures. This article reviews the research progress on radiation-induced ovarian damage, with a focus on the introduction of the fertility preservation measures and new technologies for young female tumor patients receiving radiotherapy.

Objective To report nine cases of descending necrotizing mediastinitis(DNM)and to summarize the management experience.Methods Between December 2005 and December 2008,nine patients(mean age,55.7 years;age range,38 to 78 years)with DNM were treated.Eight patients underwent surgical drainage of the involved cervical region and mediastinum(4 with cervical drainage alone;4 with cervical drainage and right thoracotomy).Results Two patients died,one of them refused surgical therapy and the other one died of multiorgan failure related to postoperative septic shock.Seven patients recovered.The mortality rate was 22%.Conclusions Delayed diagnosis and inadequate drainage are the main causes of high mortality rate of DNM.Aggressive surgical drainage and debridement of the neck and mediastinum by a multidisciplinary team of surgeons are very important in the treatment of DNM.

Background:Based on the effect of seasonal changes on human visceral function,this study investigated the impact of seasonal photoperiod of the pineal body on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis-hippo-campal-receptor in rats,aiming to reveal the mechanism by which pineal gland melatonin regulates the seasonal secretion of hippocampal neurotransmitters.Methods:Vernal equinox,summer solstice,autumn equinox,and winter solstice were selected as four experimental time points,and rats were randomly divided into normal control group,sham operation group,and pinealectomized group.The seasonal changes in corticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH),adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH),corticosterone,hypothalamic melatonin receptor(MTR),and hippocampal corticosterone receptor(CORTR)were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results:Comparing the same group between different seasons,we showed that in the normal control group,CRH,ACTH,corticosterone,and MTR were higher,while CORTR was lower in autumn and winter than in spring(all P＜.05).Compared with the normal control group,the pinealectomized group showed higher levels of corticosterone(P=.01),MTR(P=.01),and CORTR(P=.03)during spring;reduced levels of MTR and CORTR(both P＜.001)during summer;higher levels of ACTH(P=.001)and MTR(P＜.001),and lower levels of CRH(P=.001),corticosterone(P＜.001),and CORTR(P=.003)during autumn;and lower levels of CRH(P＜.001)and MTR(P=.004),and higher level of ACTH(P＜.001)in winter.Conclusions:Seasonal photoperiod acts on the pineal gland to secrete different levels of melatonin,resulting in seasonal changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis-hippocampal-receptor,which may be the pathophysiological basis for the onset of seasonal affective disorder.
