Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2014;(3):122-124
Objective To explore the correlation between serum myocardial enzymes and children with viral hepatitis according to clinical observation and analysis,in order to guide clinical treatment.Methods 66 children with viral encephalitis admitted in Women and Children's Hospital of Ninbo City from September 2010 to December 2011 were used as observation group,the aspartate a minotransferase(AST)level,lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)level,creatine kinase levels(CK)level,MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK-MB)level in serum were detected by Olym pus AU-1000 automatic biochemical analyzer.The level ofα-hydroxybutyric acid dehydrogenase(α-HBDH)was detected,too.At the same time,another 48 normal children in our hospital were used as control group,and the same indexes were detected and recorded.After obtain those datas in two groups,the differences of myocardial enzymes between observation group and control group,acute and convalescent,light and heavy encephalitis encephalitis, gammaglobulin gammaglobulin treatment and non-treatment group were compared and analyzed.Results showed that the degrees of myocardial damage were varied in children with viral inordinately,the more serious illness in children,the higher myocardial enzyme levels.Correspondingly,while the children with encephalitis were in recovery ,their cardiac enzyme levels were found significantly reduced.Adding gamma globulin may help cardiac enzymes decreasing at a faster rate,favoring patients' recovery.Conclusion Cardiac enzyme activity can be used as an important indicator of clinical observation in children with viral and their prognosis,proper treatment should be carried out when the relationship between serum myocardial enzymes and viral encephalitis are clear.

Objective To describe the characteristic MR findings in the brain in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and to assess the diagnostic value of conventional MR imaging and fractional anisotropy (FA) of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Methods Conventional MR imaging was performed in 14 clinically proved ALS patients and 12 age-matched normal controls. Contrast enhanced MR images were acquired in 2 patients. Axial and coronal DTI scans were performed in 10 patients and 12 normal controls with SE-EPI sequence. The b value was 1 000 s/mm 2, the number of diffusion sensitive gradient direction was 25. For quantitative assessment of the corticospinal tract (CST), FA value of bilateral CST was measured at the level of posterior limb (PL) of the internal capsule (IC) and the cerebral peduncle of the midbrain, respectively, and statistical analysis was performed. Results Focal slight low signal intensity on T 1WI and high signal intensity (hyperintense to gray matter) on T 2WI was demonstrated in 6 ALS cases (42.9%) in bilateral PL of the IC, and the high signal was longitudinally continuous from the PL to the cerebral peduncle on T 2WI coronal plane, corresponding to the course of CST. In another 8 ALS cases (57.1%), the focal slight low signal intensity on T 1WI and slight high signal intensity (isointense to gray matter) on T 2WI was revealed in bilateral PL of the IC. No abnormal contrast enhancement was detected in the 2 cases. In control group, the focal slight low signal intensity on T 1WI and slight high signal intensity (isointense to gray matter) on T 2WI was demonstrated in all 12 subjects in bilateral PL of the IC. FA values of the patient group were significantly lower than that of the control group at the level of the PL of the IC (F=7.38, P

Objective To investigate the MR manifestations and diagnostic value in patients with choroidal fissure cyst of the brain. Methods Characteristic MR findings in 16 patients with choroidal fissure cyst were retrospectively analyzed, and the correlation between MR imaging and clinical manifestations was reviewed. Results The cysts were situated within the choroidal fissure in all cases, representing as cystic lesion with clear border, no detectable soft tissue mass in the cyst wall or adjacent area, homogenous signal intensity identical to CSF on all sequences, with the average size of 0.9 cm?1.3 cm?1.5 cm, and no associated edema. Gd-DTPA was performed in 6 cases and revealed no evidence of enhancement. Conclusion The choroidal fissure cyst of the brain is a benign and congenital developmental abnormality, and has minor clinical significance. Because of its specific anatomic location, the choroidal fissure cysts simulate intraparenchymal cystic lesions on axial images. Coronal and sagittal MR imaging can be used to delineate its extraaxial location and make the correct diagnosis, and, thus, differentiate with other cystic lesions.

Objective To investigate the biological function of IFN-λ in 7 human esophageal carcinoma cells. MethodsThe gene expression of IL-28α, IL-10β and antiviral molecule was examined with PCR. The MHC molecules expression and the profiles of cell cycle were analyzed with flow cytometer. Cell proliferation was evaluated with MTT assay. ResultsAll of esophageal carcinoma cells express the gene of II-28α and IL-10β. IFN-λ induced or augmented the gene expression of antiviral molecules, 2′5′-OAS and MxA. IFN-λ enhanced the MHC class Ⅰ molecule expression. IFN-λ inhibited the growth of esophageal carcinoma cells through the regulation of cell cycle distribution. ConclusionEsophageal carcinoma cells express the IFN-λ receptor complex. IFN-λ has the antiviral, anti-proliferative and immunoregulation activity.
