1.Effect of beclin1 on vincristine-induced dopaminergic neurons injury in zebrafish.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2014;49(6):843-8
To investigate vincristine-induced dopaminergic neurons toxicity and mechanism, and explore the molecular target to reduce the toxicity, zebrafish was chosen as a model animal, based on RT-PCR, Western blotting, whole mount in situ immunofluorescence and other technical means. The results showed that the transcription levels of tyrosine hydroxylase gene and dopamine transporter protein gene were inhibited. Furthermore, the number of dopaminergic neurons was decreased by vincristine. Autophagy was suppressed and beclin1 gene expression was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by vincristine in larval zebrafish. Up-regulated beclin1 partly reduced vincristine-induced neurotoxicity, and down-regulated beclin1 increased toxicity. Beclin1 plays an important role in vincristine-induced dopaminergic neurons toxicity.

BACKGROUND:There is currently no anatomic locking plate suitable for the anteromedial platform,so the medial locking plate of the tibial plateau is usually placed forward to fix anteromedial compression fractures caused by hyperextension varus injury.Due to the inability of the locking screw to achieve vertical fixation of the fracture line,coupled with the influence of the patellar ligament,the clinical results are still unsatisfactory. OBJECTIVE:To compare the biomechanical performance of a new type of plate with traditional internal fixation methods in treating hyperextension varus tibial plateau fractures through finite element analysis. METHODS:CT data of 20 cases of hyperextension varus tibial plateau fractures were collected,and their morphological characteristics,such as medial posterior tibial slope,the medial articular fracture angle,surface area,and anterior cortical height were measured.A 24-year-old male volunteer with a height of 175 cm and a weight of 65 kg was selected,and his tibial CT data were imported into Mimics 21.0 software to generate a 3D model.Then,internal fixation models were imported into SolidWorks 2017 software.New type of plate,medial locking plate,posterior medial locking plate,and 6.5 mm hollow screws fixed data models were established based on the measured morphological data.Ansys 17.0 software was used to load stress on the four fixation models and compare their biomechanical performance. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)With the increase of axial load,the peak stresses of different internal fixation models approximately increased proportionally.At 500 N,the peak stress values were as follows:screw group(6.973 7 MPa)

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of percutaneous screw fixation for acetabular anterior column fracture with laser-assisted axial fluoroscopy.Methods:Data of 20 patients (22 sided) with acetabular anterior column fracture treated by percutaneous screw fixation with laser-assisted axial fluoroscopy from January 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 11 males and 9 females with an average of 42.1±3.2 years (range, 24-68 years). There were 7 cases of unilateral acetabular anterior column fracture, 2 cases of bilateral acetabular anterior column fracture (4 sides), 7 cases of anterior column with ipsilateral sacral fracture, and 4 cases of anterior column with sacroiliac joint injury. There were 3 hips of Area I, 6 Area II, 13 Area III of acetabular anterior column fractures according to Nakatani partition. The time from injury to surgery was 5 days (range, 3-11 days). All patients with acetabular anterior column fractures were fixed by percutaneous screw fixation with laser-assisted axial fluoroscopy, and patients with sacral fracture or sacroiliac joint injury were fixed by percutaneous sacroiliac screws with Starr frame-assisted reduction. The time of operation, the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy and the amount of intraoperative bleeding were recorded. Matta scoring criteria were used to assess fracture reduction quality, and hip function was assessed at the last follow-up according to the modified Merle D' Aubigné and Postel scoring system.Results:The average operative time was 22±10 min (range, 20-40 min) with an average times of intraoperative fluoroscopy of 30±8 times (range, 21-45 times), and the amount of intraoperative blood loss was 20±5 ml (range, 10-40 ml). 20 patients were followed up after operation for a period of 14±3.1 months (range, 12-18 months). The quality of postoperative fracture reduction was assessed according to the Matta acetabular fracture reduction criteria: anatomical reduction in 18 hips, satisfactory reduction in 2 hips, unsatisfactory reduction in 2 hips, with an excellent and good rate of 91% (20/22). The fracture healing time was 13±2.2 weeks (range, 11-16 weeks). At the lastest follow-up, hip function was assessed according to the modified Merle D' Aubigné and Postel scoring system: excellent 18, good 3, fair 1, and the satisfactory rate was 95%(21/22). No major neurological, vascular injury, wound infection and ectopic ossification were found during follow-up.Conclusion:Using laser-assisted axial fluoroscopy percutaneous screw to treat acetabular anterior column fracture, the operation is simple. And there is low risk to damage important blood vessels and nerves. This method can shorten the operation time of acetabular anterior column fracture, reduce the amount of blood loss during the operation, and the outcome is satisfactory.
