Objective To study imageology anatomy concerned of sellar turica and explore its potential role on growth of pituitary adenomas. Methods According to classification of sinus sphenoidalis,103 normal imageology data of sellar turica region were analyzed, including 83 cases with entire saddle type sinus sphenoidalis and 20 cases anti-saddle type sinus sphenoidalis. Furthermore, the clinical data of 45 cases of pituitary adenomas with extension into sinus sphenoidalis were retrospectively studied. Results The relationship between sellar floor's shapes and sinus sphenoidals'types was that the larger the sinus sphenoidalis was, the deeper the floor was(98.8%). The relationship between sellar floor's shapes and the superior surface of hypophysis was that most of depressed sellar floors were companied with depressed superior surfaces of hypophysises(93.8%). The anteroposterior shapes of sellar turica in midsagittal can be divided into 4 types such as bag-type, kettle-type, tube-type, and sifter-type. 45 patients suffering from pituitary adenoms with extension into sinus sphenoidalis all had entire saddle type sinus sphenoidalis. Conclusions The imageology anatomy concerned of sellar turica could explain the phenomena of pituitary adenomas with extension toward sellar floor and sinus sphenoidalis. Referring to the literatures concerned, it indicated that the imageology anatomy was the key factor of affecting the growth of pituitary adenomas.

Huperzine A is a promising drug to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). To date, its biosynthetic pathway is still unknown. Lysine decarboxylase (LDC) has been proposed to catalyze the first-step of the biosynthesis of huperzine A. To identify and characterize LDCs from Huperzia serrata, we isolated two LDC fragments (LDC1 and LDC2) from leaves of H. serrata by RT-PCR and then cloned them into pMD 19-T vector. Sequence analysis showed that LDC1 and LDC2 genes shared 95.3% identity and encoded the protein of 212 and 202 amino acid residues respectively. Thus, we ligated LDC genes into pET-32a(+) to obtain recombinant expressing vectors pET-32a(+)/LDC1 and pET-32a(+)/LDC2 respectively. We further introduced two expression vectors into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) and cultured positive colonies of E. coli in liquid LB medium. After inducing for 4 hours with 260 μg/mL IPTG at 30 degrees C, soluble recombinant Trx-LDC1 and Trx-LDC2 were obtained and isolated for purification using a Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. We incubated purified recombinant proteins with L-lysine in the enzyme reaction buffer at 37 degrees C and then derived the reaction products using dansyl chloride. It was found that both Trx-LDC1 and Trx-LDC2 had decarboxylase activity, could convert L-lysine into cadaverine by way of thin layer chromatography assay. Further, bioinformatics analysis indicated that deduced LDC1 and LDC2 had different physicochemical properties, but similar secondary and three-dimensional structures.

Objective To evaluate efficacy and mechanism of Anluohuaxian pilule combined with interferon-γ in the treatment of schistosomal liver fibrosis. To preliminarily study on the relationship of pigment deposition in liver and schistosomal liver fibrosis. Methods Thirty Kunming mice were divided into the normal control group, the infection control group and the combination of Anluohuaxian pilule and Interferon-γ treated group. Schistosomal liver fibrosis model was established by infection with 40 Schistosoma japonicum cercariae. The treated group was treated by combination of Anluohuaxian pilule and Interferon-γ for 8 weeks. The changes of pigment deposition and hepatic egg granuloma in Schistosoma japonicum infected mice were observed. Expressions of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ were detected by immunohistochemistry. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 was detected by fluorescent polymerase chain reaetion(PCR). Histopathology and computer image analysis were applied to evaluate the change in the liver tissues. Results The amount of pigment deposition in liver was related to the expression of TGF-β1 mRNA (correlation coefficient = 0. 8). Compared to the infection control group, combination of Anluohuaxian pilule and Interferon-γ can lessen hepatic fibrosis(P<0.05). The combination therapy can also make pigment deposition less and hepatic granuloma smaller than the infection control group(P<0. 05). Conclusions Pigment deposition in liver is related to the expression of TGF-β 1. Combination of Anluohuaxian pilule and Interferon-γ can lessen hepatic fibrosis in mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum. It's one mechanism to of the combination therapy down-regulate the expression of collagen Ⅰ, Ⅲ and TGF-β 1.

Objective: To explore the turnover and treament of postoperative remainder of giant nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma with suprasellar extension(SSE). Methods: The clinical data of 68 cases suffering from giant nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma with suprasellar extension(SSE)admitted into our department were retrospectively analyzed.These patients underwent primary transsphenoidal surgery. Results: Twenty cases had SSE adenomas totally removed(20.6%).In other 48 cases(79.34%),SSE residues were shown in MRI recheck at one day after surgery.After 3 months,the 3rd MRI scanning was performed only to find that tumor residues descended to sellar floor in 21 cases,into intrasella in 8 cases,and down to the level of stalk hypophysial and the entrance to the sella in 3 cases.All of Patients with residual tumors received retranssphenoidal resection(the total removal rate of desending SSE residues was 96.9%).There were 2 cases with adenoma residues with slight descending.Obvious SSE adenomas were treated with transtranial approach.The twelve cases with small SSE residues were consecutively observed and two of them received gamma knife treatment because of unobvious postoperative visual improvement.The surgical mortality was 0%.There was no death during follow up in all of these patients.There were no cases with rhinorrhea.meningitis or visual deterioration.Two patients had supradiaphragmatic bleeding detected by routine postoperative CT. Conclusion: Staged surgery with two or multiple transsphenoidal resections is an appropriate treatment for giant nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma with supresellar extension(SSE),with few complications.Futher study is warranted to investigate the growth pattern of pituitary adenoma.
