Objective:To determine whether heme oxygenase-2(HO-2) gene deletion can attenuate oxidative injury induced by free Fe2+. Methods:Stereotactic injection of 10 μl sterile FeCl2 (10 mmol/L) was made into the right striata of HO-2 knockout mice and wild-type mice. Brain edema severity was measured at 24 h. Cell viability, protein oxidation, and lipid oxidation of the basal ganglia were determined at 72 h. Western blot analysis was applied for heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) measurement.Results: Brain water content significantly decreased in HO-2 knockout mice at 24 h compared with wild-type mice. Protein oxidation and lipid oxidation significantly decreased in HO-2 knockout mice at 72 h compared with wild-type mice, while the striatal cell viability increased significantly. HO-1 expression at baseline and 72 h was also similar to that in wild-type mice. Conclusion:These results show that HO-2 gene deletion can protect basal ganalia cells from free Fe2+ -mediated oxidative stress injury,suggesting that selective inhibition of HO-2 may have a protective effect on brain oxidative injury.

Objective To survey gene expression profiles in nonlesional refractory temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE)and to further verify the difference of gene expression.thus to evaluate the possible molecular pathogenesis of this kind of epilepsy that can help to supply a new way for the diagnosis and treatment.Methods The TLE samples and control cases were studied by means of cDNA microarray consisting of 1 8 000 genes.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)Was performed to measure the expression alterations of SH3GL2.BTNN2A2 and KCNJ4 mRNA in temporal cortex samples from patients who had undergone temporal lobectomy surgery for intractable epilepsy.Tissue from 10 subjects who did not have epilepsy served as controls.Results The known genes differently expressed in those TLE samples involved immunity correlation factor genes,signal conduction genes,ion channel transportation genes;mitochondria function genes and SO on were identified.Among which.the expression of SH3GL2 mRNA Was significantly increased in epileptic brain(1.022±0.547)compared with the controls(0.446±0.171,t=-3.181).In TLE group(0.481±0.196),the expression of BTN2A2 mRNA was also significantly higher than that of control subjects(0.243±0.111,t=3.351).Compared with control group(O.795±0.112),the expression of KCNJ4 mRNA Was significantly decreased in TLE patients(0.438±0.178).Conclusions cDNA microarray is an efficient and high.throughout method to survey gene expression profiles in intractable temporal lobe epilepsy.The variation of those gene expressions might be a potential etiological agent for TLE that may offer a novel target for anticonvulsant therapy.

Objective To evaluate the possible molecular pathogenesis of intractable temporal lobe epilepsy. The potassium ion channel gene KCNJ4 encodes one of the subfamilies of Kir channels, Kir2.3 subunit, which may play an important role in modulating neuronal excitation. Interference in the function or expression of this gene would cause disturbance of ionic concentrations, thus leading to seizure activity. Methods Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western-blot analysis were used to measure the expression alterations of KCNJ4 mRNA as well as its protein product Kir2.3 channel in temporal cortex samples from patients who had undergone temporal lobectomy for intractable epilepsy (n=12). Tissue from 10 subjects who did not have epilepsy served as controls. Results The expression of KCNJ4 mRNA (0.438?0.178) and its protein Kir2.3 (M 50=0.063) were significantly decreased in epileptic brain compared with the controls (P

Objective To evaluate high resolution manometry in the diagnosis of hiatal hernia.Methods Clinical data were reviewed on 20 patients suffering from gastroesophageal reflux who had laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication for preoperative tentative diagnosis of hiatal hernia.Preoperative diagnosis of hiatal hernia was made collectively by endoscopy,X-ray examination,24 hour esophageal pH monitoring and high resolution manometry before surgery.Results Preoperative diagnosis of hiatal hernia was made in 3 patients by X-ray examination,in 9 patients by high resolution manometry.11 patients were finally diagnosed with hiatat hernia intraoperatively.X ray was consistent with intraoperative diagnosis in 27％ cases.Intraoperative and endoscopic diagnoses were 55％.High resolution manometry and intraoperative diagnoses were consistent in 82％.Lower esophageal sphincter length was (1.92 ± 0.38) cm in hiatal hernia group and (2.10 ± 0.92) cm in non-hiatal hernia group (t =0.60,P ＞ 0.05),lower esophageal sphincter pressure (respiratory min) was (0.64 ±0.55) kPa in hiatal hernia group and (1.31 ± 1.07) kPa in nonhiatal hernia group(t =1.80,P ＞ 0.05),and lower esophageal sphincter pressure (respiratory mean) was (1.43 ±0.92) kPa in hiatal hernia group and (2.57 ± 1.33) kPa in non-hiatal hernia group(t =2.26,P ＜0.05).The reflux parameters,including the percent total time pH ＜ 4,and DeMeester score,were significantly greater in hiatal hernia group than in non-hiatal hernia group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Hiatal hernia patients are with poor esophageal antireflux competency and severe reflux.High resolution manometry is more valuable in the diagnosis of hiatal hernia than endoscopy or X-ray examination.

Objectives To compare clinical manifestations and electrophysiological features in patients with chron?ic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and Type-I Charcot Marie Tooth Disease (CMT-I) for guiding dif?ferential diagnosis. Methods Data including clinical manifestations and electrophysiological indexes was collected from thirty-one CIDP cases and 28 CMT-I cases. Correlation analysis was used to assess the association of the severity of electrophysiology with the severity of clinical symptoms. Results There were statistically significant differences in onset site, sensory dysfunction, foot deformity and cerebrospinal fluid protein between these two groups (P<0.05). There were significant differences in indexes of nerve conduction and needle electromyography between these two groups (P<0.05). The severity of clinical symptoms was not related with the severity of electrophysiology in CMT-I group (r=0.27,P>0.05). Conclusions Differential diagnoses of CIDP and CMT-I can be made based on clinical manifestations and electro?physiological features.

Objective To choose proper proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(~1XH-MRS) parameters to fit for practical femoral marrow cavity and to produce short-timed,well-repeated and excellent ~1H-MRS images.Methods The tentative study of ~1H-MRS on the normal femoral bone marrow in 26 volunteers was performed with a 1.5 T MR after the informed consent.The single-voxel spectroscopy and stimulated echo acquisition mode were used for ~1H-MRS collection.~1H-MRS parameters for 12 volunteers were 128 acquisitions,1 cm?1 cm?1 cm volume of interest(VOI)size and repeatedly 2—3 times within the same location.~1H-MRS parameters for another:14 volunteers were different numbers of acquisition (128 and 256 times,respectively)and different VOI sizes(2 cm?2 cm?2 cm and 1 cm?1 cm?1 cm, respectively).Results For ~1H-MRS with 1 cm?1 cm?1 cm size of VOI and 128 times of acquisition with the full width haft max of water≤8—12 Hz,the base-line was steady and the signal-noise ratio was high up to 11.31.~1H-MRS was different in the different femoral locations showing the maximum peak sites at near 0.90 ppm(?10~(-6))or 1.65 ppm,but~1H-MRS within the same location was always same or similar with different VOI sizes(1 cm?1 cm?1 cm or 2 cm?2 cm?2 cm)or different numbers of acquisition(128 or 256 times).~1H-MRS acquisition time was not related with the size of VOI but with the numbers of acquisition.128 and 256 times of acquisition cost 199 s and 391 s,respectively.Conclusion With the technique of small size of VOI(1 cm?1 cm?1 cm)and decreased numbers of acquisition(128 times),it is propable to get well-repeated and excellent ~1H-MRS within less time.It is also more practical for clinics to achieve ~1H-MRS of the femoral marrow with the proper technique.

Background and Objective: Elevated expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) has been found in multiple carcinoma tissues.MMP-26 is highly expressed in prostate and breast cancer tissues,and promotes the invasion of human prostate cancer cells not only through the cleavage of fibronectin and type Ⅳ collagen but also by the activation of pro-MMP-9,a powerful gelatinase. This study was to present a comprehensive protein expression profile of MMP-26 in multiple human cancer tissues. Methods: The protein expression pattern of MMP-26 was examined using immunohistochemistry and multiple-tissue microarray. MMP-26 mRNA expression in coronary artery smooth muscle cells was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results: The expression of MMP-26 in breast,colon,lung, brain, head and neck, prostate cancer, and melanoma tissues was significantly elevated when compared with parallel normal tissues (P＜0.05), while not significantly elevated in kidney cancer,ovarian cancer,and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (P＞0.05).MMP-26 was also detected to express in gastric,rectal,thyroid, esophageal,and pancreatic cancers.MMP-26 protein was expressed in smooth muscle cells of the prostate and associated blood vessels. MMP-26 mRNA was also detected to express in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells. Conclusions: MMP-26 expression may be associated with multiple human carcinomas,and it may serve as a molecular marker for the early diagnosis of these carcinomas.MMP-26 may also contribute to smooth muscle function in the human prostate and cardiovascular system.
