PURPOSE: To assess the role of nitric oxide in the development of cataract by detection of nitrotyrosine, which is a reaction product of peroxynitrite with tyrosine. METHODS: We have collected aqueous humor and anterior capsule of lens after cataract surgery from 14 eyes. We classified lens opacities into three types such as nuclear sclerosis, cortical and posterior subcapsular opacity. Nitrite, stable oxidative product of nitric oxide, was measured in the aqueous humor and immunohistochemical staining for nitrotyrosine was performed to examine anterior capsules. RESULTS: The concentrations of nitric oxide in aqueous humor were 0.0698+/-0.0036, 0.0652+/-0.0116, and 0.0700+/-0.0022 mM in nuclear sclerosis, cortical and posterior subcapsular opacity, respectively and no significant differences existed among lens opacity types. In lenses with cortical and posterior subcapsular opacity, the expression of nitrotyrosine was observed around epithelial cell and intercellular space. There was no expression of nitrotyrosine in lenses with nuclear sclerosis. CONCLUSIONS: This results suggest that nitration of tyrosine by peroxynitrite is possibly related to the cataractogenesis of lenses with cortical and posterior subcapsular opacity.

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is a relatively rare benign tumor, which is charaterized by the development of endothelial-lined papillary projections in a vascular lumen. They can occur as a pure form in which endothelial proliferation developes in a dilated vessel, a mixed form in which endothelial proliferation occurs within a pre-existing angioma. We herein report a case of intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia coexistent with angioleiomyoma occuring in a 54-year-old man, who had a slowly growing tumor on the right sole for 2 years. The histologic findings revealed a solitary encapsulated mass composed of smooth muscles and blood vessels in deep dermis and papillary endothelial hyperplasia in a neighboring blood vessel.

STUDY DESIGN: We analyzed the segmental mobility of the lumbar spine after anterior stabilization in the thoracolumbar spinal fractures, and the data were compared with those obtained from an asymptomatic control group. OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of anterior stabilization on the unfused segments of the lumbar spine. SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: Spinal fusions are commenly used to stabilize unstable motion segments and to help the maintenance of correction afforded by the instrumentation applied in surgery for spinal deformity or injuries. How the presence of the fusion effects upon the remaining infused spine is not well understood. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We measured the segmental deformations of the lumbar spine radiologically, from maximum flexion to maximum extension, right and left maximum lateral bending, in 20 asymptomatic volunteers( the control group ) and 30 patients who had the anterior stabilization of the thoracolumbar spinal fractures(the study group). We assessed the percentage of segmental deformations which were obtained by multipling one hundred after the segmental deformation value was divided by the total lumbar deformation value. We made the comparison between the White and Panjabi's results and the control group, between the control group and the study group, between the segmental deformations and the percentage of segmental deformations. RESULTS: In the control group , the segmental deformations were smaller than those of the corresponding segmenus in the White and Panjabi's results. In the flexion-extension rotation of the lumbarspine, the segmental deformations had a tendency to increase from cephalad to caudal in the controland study group. In the residual lumbar spinal mobility, the segmental deformations of the study group had decreased rather than those of the control group. Especially the segmental deformation below the juxtafused segment had increased more than those of the corresponding segment of the control group in the right lateral bending rotation. The residual lumbar spinal mobility tended to decrease from T12 vertebral stabilization to L2 vertebral stabilization. CONCLUSION: The unfused segments had accommodated a greater percentage of segmental deformations in spite of diminishing the segmental deformations in comparison with those of the corresponding control subjects. It suggests that the greater percentage of segmental deformations predisposes to early degeneration of unfused segments.

BACKGROUND: CD34 is a 115 kD glycoprotein which is expressed on hematopoietic progenitor cells. It is also known as an immunohistochemical marker of endothelial cells. OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to investigate the patterns of CD34 expression on: (1) cutaneous benign and malignant vascular tumors and (2) on the mature and immature vessels of pyogenic grauloma and capillary hemangioma. METHOD: We performed immunoperoxidase staining using a monoclonal anti-CD34 antibody (QBEND/10) on formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of 23 benign and malignant cutaneous vascular tumors. RESULTS: The results are summerized as follows: 1. In 3 cases of nevus flammeus and 6 cases of carvernous hemangioma, vascular endothelial cells of all hemangiomas showed CD34 expressions. In 5 cases of angiokeratoma, endothelial cells of hemangioma, did not express CD34. 2. In all 5 cases of pyogenic granulomas and one case of capillary hemangioma, endothelial cells of mature vessels, endothelial cells near the well-formed lumina and endothelial cells showing intracellular lumina showed strong positivity for CD34, wbile endothelial cells far from the lumina and endothelial cells without lumina formation mostly showed negative staining for CD34. 3. One cese of Kaposis sarcoma showed focall positivity for CD34 both in endothelial cells of the small, well-formed vessels and spindle cells. Two cases of angiosarcoma showed CD34 expression only in endothelial cells of well-formed, normal appearing vessels, whereas atypical endothelial cells of tumor vessels and spindle cells were negative for CD34. CONCLUSION: CD34 could be a marker for endothelium in mature, well-differentiated vascular structures and may serve as a marker of lumen formation or differentiation of endothelial cells.
