AIM: To explore the expressive profile of nestin protein in the focal ischemic brain and to study the recovery mechanism of brain focal infarct . METHODS: Cellular morphology, time-course and distribution pattern of nestin positive response were immunohistochemically examined in different brain regions of 36 adult male SD rats. RESULTS: Nestin positive response of different brain regions in sham operated rats was present in small- and micro-vasculartures and the third ventricle bottom and ependyma. A large number of nestin positive cells were detected in ischemic brain, and were more remarkable in the cortical areas of parietal lobe and preoptic area as well as ischemic caudoputamen. Stellate nestin positive cells were located in the deep layer of ischemic cortex, but fibrillary cells were located in the shallow layer. Nestin positive cells in the ischemic caudoputamen showed the same changes of morphology as those cells in the deep layer of ischemic cortex. Morphological and number alterations of nestin positive cells were the most remarkable at 1 weeks post-ischemia, which showed more hypertrophy and proliferation in morphology, and a marked increase in number was present in the ischemic cerebral cortex and the ischemic caudoputamen. These alterations of nestin positive cells persisted up to 6 weeks post-ischemia, and then, the nestin positive response in the ischemic brain decreased gradually. CONCLUSION: Focal cerebral ischemia induces nestin re-expression on reactive astrocytes, which may be very important to the self-recovery of cerebral infarct.

Objective To investigate the functions of Rv1273c and Rv1272c, two ATP-binding cassette transporters (ABC transporters) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). Methods The ethidium bromide ( EB)-agar cartwheel and EB accumulation assays were used to detect the transport direc-tion of Rv1273c and Rv1272c in the recombinant strains of BL21/pET-28a-rv1273c and BL21/pET-28a-rv1272c, which were constructed by our lab in the previous study. RT-PCR was used to confirm whether rv1273c and rv1272c genes were in the same operon. Real-time PCR was performed to detect the expression of rv1272c and rv1273c genes in M. tuberculosis strains of H37Rv and H37Ra. Results Both the EB-agar cartwheel and the EB accumulation assays indicated that Rv1273c and Rv1272c transported EB into cells. Results of the RT-PCR showed that rv1273c and rv1272c were in the same operon. The expression of rv1273c and rv1272c at mRNA level in M. tuberculosis H37Ra strain were about 6 times higher than those in M. tuber-culosis H37Rv strain. Conclusion Rv1273c and Rv1272c are ABC importers and might be related to the virulence of M. tuberculosis.

Objective:To summarize the influencing factors and the preventative strategies of transurethral resection syndrome(TURS) in transurethral vaporization of the prostate(TVP). Methods:Among the consecutive 1360 patients who underwent TVP from Feb 1998 to 2004 Dec,using Circon vaporization device and vaporizaton-resection electrode,irrigating with 5% GS,TURS occured in 12 cases.The clinical materials were reviewed retrospectively. Results:At the end of operation,serum sodium declined and blood glucose rose apparently in the TURS cases.Of the 12 patients,mean operative time was 136 min(90-180min),prostate volume were Ⅲ?(50-75 g),perforation of the prostate capsule occurred in 8 cases,chill occued in 8 cases.TURS occurrence rate was relatively high in the high risk cases.The 12 patients were cured. Conclusion:The risk of TURS that still exists during TVP is relevant to: perforation of the prostate capsule,operative time,irrigating pressure,the high risk cases,prostate volume and(so on.)

Purpose To study the cytopathologic features of CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy samples and to evaluate the role of cytopathology in the diagnosis and staging of lung carcinomas, as compared to histopathology. Methods Four-hundred twenty-five specimens were collected by CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy which were also confirmed by histological diagnosis. Direct smears were performed for each case. Cytological and histological examination was carried out. Results The sensitivity, specificity, false positive rate, false negative rate and accuracy of cytopathology in diagnosing lung carcinomas by CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy was 86. 6% (264/305), 100% (120/120), 0 (0/120), 13. 4% (41/305), 90. 4% (384/425), respectively. Overall 51. 1%(135/264) of the cases were precisely typed, including 77. 6% (83/107) of adenocarcinoma, 76. 9% (40/52) of squamous cell car-cinoma and 75. 0% (9/12) of small cell carcinoma. Conclusions Cytopathology of CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy specimens is sensitive and accurate for diagnosing pulmonary carcinomas. In some cases, the lung carcinoma can be precisely typed. Therefore, it is useful for diagnosing and staging lung carcinomas.

Objective To observe the changes of foot processes,expression and distribution of transient receptor potential cation channel 6 (TRPC6) in podocytes by puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) and dexamethasone (DEX) intervention,then to investigate the function of TRPC6 in podocytes and its relation to proteinuria in kidney diseases.Methods Podocytes cultured in vitro were divided into three group:control group,PAN stimulation group and DEX intervention group.Mouse podocyte cell line (MPC5) were cultured in 0.02％ dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in control group,subjected to PAN (50 μg/ml) treatment alone or with DEX (1 μmol/L) in other two groups for 8 h,24 h,48 h.The podocyte morphology was observed and took pictures by phase-contrast microscope,then the differences of morphology and areas were analyzed.The distribution,mRNA expression and protein expression of TRPC6 were detected by indirect immunocyto-fluorescence,real-time quantitative PCR and Western blotting,respectively.Results The well-developed podocyte arborization and interconnection was formed in control group,but PAN led to significant shrinkage of podocytes (P ＜ 0.05),together with podocyte foot process retraction,effacement and loss of cell contact.DEX significantly prevented the shrinkage and apoptosis of podocytes.The apoptosis rate was significantly increased after PAN stimulated 48 h (P ＜ 0.05).Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blotting found TRPC6 mRNA and protein expression were prone to increase in PAN group compared with control group (P ＜ 0.05).The distribution of TRPC6 becamed abnormal in PAN group.DEX decreased TRPC6 mRNA and protein expression at 48 h compared with PAN group (P ＜ 0.05).The abnormal distribution of TRPC6 was also alleviated by the protection of DEX.Conclusion DEX exerts a direct action to podocyte which retains the integrity of slit diaphragm against podocyte injury,and alleviates proteinuria via stabilizing mRNA,protein expression and distribution of TRPC6.

The clinical data of a child with anti-(α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid, AMPA2) receptor antibody encephalitis after herpes simplex encephalitis was retrospectively analyzed.The child was a 9-year-old female developing abnormal mental behavior after fever.The auxiliary examination of the first hospital displayed, cerebrospinal fluid: sugar qualitative (+ ), white blood cell count 32×10 6/L, albumin measurement (immune turbidity method) 317.00 mg/L, immunoglobulin IgG 45.80 mg/L.Herpes simplex virus (+ ). Skull magnetic resonance imaging showed: abnormal signal at the top of the frontal frontotemporal, considering intracranial infection.Video electroencephalogram: the background is diffuse slow wave, a small amount of multifocal spikes, sharp waves, spine slow wave release, left frontal, and temporal sacral protrusions.One partial seizure may be detected during the awake period.The diagnosis was " herpes simplex virus encephalitis" , and the body temperature of the child returned to normal after anti-infection and hormone therapy.However, there were still cognitive impairments, irritability, and no language communication.After 2 years, there was no abnormality in routine biochemical and viral cerebrospinal fluid examination.Serum and cerebrospinal fluid autoimmune encephalitis-related antibody spectrum: anti-NMDA, AMPA1/2, GABAB receptor antibody and anti-CASPR2, LGI1 antibodies were negative in serum.The anti-AMPA2 receptor antibody in the cerebrospinal fluid was weakly positive, and the final diagnosis was anti-AMPA2 receptor antibody encephalitis.After the application of hormones, the children′s cognition improved, mood was more stable than before, and language communication improved as well.Anti-AMPA2 receptor antibody encephalitis can be observed in children, and may be related to immune response after viral infection.For patients of viral encephalitis with poor treatment or disease relapse and progression, the possibility of autoimmune encephalitis should be considered.

Objective To investigate the role of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway in Dexamethasone (DEX) inhibiting podocytes apoptosis which was induced by Puromycin (PAN).Methods Mouse glomerular podocytes were cultured in vitro,and were divided into control group,dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group,PAN group,DEX group,and LY294002 (inhibitor of PI3 K) group.The mRNA expression of CD2-associated protein (CD2AP) was measured by using real time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction,and intracellular distribution was detected by using indirect immunofluorescence staining.Co localization of CD2AP and p85 was detected by using confocal fluorescence microscopy.The expressions of Akt,phosphorylated (p)-Akt,glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3 β) and phosphorylated (p)-GSK3β were evaluated by using Western blot.Results The expressions of CD2AP mRNA in PAN group at each time point (8 h,24 h,48 h) (1.11 ± 0.16,0.78 ±0.09,0.56 ± 0.43) were significantly lower than those in the control group (1.90 ± 0.26,2.09 ± 0.12,2.28 ±0.95),and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05);CD2AP distributed in foot process with uniform filament and discontinuous coarse particle around perinuclear;CD2AP and p85 distributed in cell membrane and cytoplasm evenly in control group,but accumulated in nuclei in the PAN group.The expressions of CD2AP mRNA in DEX group at each time point (8 h,24 h,48 h) (1.53 ± 0.14,2.15 ± 0.27,2.13 ± 0.15) were significantly higher than those in the PAN group,and the differences were also statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05);the distribution density and range of CD2AP were greater than those in the PAN group,and the accumulation with p85 in nuclei decreased obviously.The expressions of p-Akt and p-GSK3β were inhibited by PAN in a dose-dependent manner (P ＜0.05).The expressions of p-Akt and p-GSK3 β were lowest after PAN stimulated at 15 min and 30 min respectively.However,the expressions of p-Akt and p-GSK3 β increased depending on the concentration of DEX (P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the expressions of p-Akt and p-GSK3 β could be blocked by LY294002 (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion DEX can protect podocytes and inhibit podocytes apoptosis through stabilizing the expression and distribution of CD2AP.The stale expression of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is the key factor in DEX protecting podocytes.
