Objective To investigate the effects of analog 165 of APP5-mer peptide on the expression of synaptic related proteins in neurons of the hippocampus through intracerebroventricular(ICV) injection of streptozotocin(STZ) in rats. Methods A total of 45 Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group,model group and treated group.Rats in the model and treated groups received intracerebroventricular injection of STZ bilaterally.After three weeks,rats in the treated group received gastric perfusion of analog 165 of APP5-mer peptide.After the four-week treatment,the memory of the rats was surveyed by Morris water maze test.The expressions of synaptic related proteins,such as postsynaptic density95 protein(PSD-95),synaptophysin and ?-Synuclein,were tested with immunohistochemical staining and Western blotting.The ultra-structure of the neurons of hippocampus was observed with transmission electron microscope. Results 1.Full-course swimming time was obviously longer in the model group than that those in the treated and control groups.2.In the model group,the expressions of PSD-95 and synaptophysin decreased,and the expression of ?-Synuclein increased.The treated group normalized the expression of the targeted proteins.3.Retrograde degeneration of the neurons of hippocampus was observed in the model group,and dysmorphic synapses were observed in the neuropil.Conclusion There are low PSD-95,synaptophysin levels and high ?-Synuclein levels in the ICV injected brain of STZ rats.Analog 165 of APP5-mer peptide improves the expression of the three proteins to some extent;therefore it may protect synapse and improve learning ability and memory.

Objective To investigate the effects of endovascular cooling in different degrees on severe traumatic brain injury in dogs.Methods Eighteen dogs of both sexes,weighing 12-15 kg,were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n =6 each):hypothermia at 31 ℃ group (group A),hypothermia at 35 ℃ group (group B) and normothermia group (group C).The model of severe traumatic brain injury was established according to the improved Feeney's free-fall method.Six hours of endovascular cooling was performed using an endovascular cooling system in A and B groups.The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was collected before traumatic brain injury (T0),and at 24,48 and 72 h after traumatic brain injury (T1-3) for measurement of the concentrations of neuron-specific enolase (NSE),S-100β,myelin basic protein (MBP),aspartate (Asp),glutamie acid (Glu),glycine ( G ly) and gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA).Results The concentrations of NSE,S-100β,MBP,Asp,Glu and Gly in CSF were significantly lower at T1-3,while the concentration of GABA in CSF was significantly higher at T1-3 in groups A and B than in group C (P ＜0.05 or 0.01).The concentrations of NSE,Asp,Glu and Gly in CSF were significantly lower at T1-3,while the concentration of GABA in CSF was significantly higher at T1-3 in group B than in group A ( P ＜0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion Endovascular cooling can reduce severe traumatic brain injury in dogs,and the efficacy is better when the temperature is reduced to 35 ℃ than that when reduced to 31 ℃.

Objective To explore the common genetic abnormalities in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) and their responses to early treatment response.Methods From December of 2010 to December of 2011,169 newly diagnosed ALL patients at the Department of Hematology,Beijing Children's Hospital Capital Medical University,were detected by karyotype analysis,reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH),and the relationship between early treatment responses and genetic abnormalities was observed.Results Of the 169 cases,bone marrow cell specimens from 162 cases were successfully cultured,with the success rate reached to 95.9％,and 88 cases (52.1％) had chromosomal abnormalities.Fifty-five cases carried 8 types of fusion genes among the 153 patients who received RT-PCR examination,and the abnormal rate was 35.9％.Forty cases applied for the detection of mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene rearrangement by FISH,and 6 cases of them were positive.One hundred and five cases had genetic abnormalities and the detection rate reached to 62.1％ by using three combined methods.The genetic abnormalities were classified into 6 groups,they were t(12;21),t(1;19),t(9;22),MLL rearrangement,hyperdiploid and-6/6q-,-7/7q-respectively,and early therapy response in each group was compared,and statistically significant differences were found among 6 groups (x2 =22.954,19.432,14.045,P =0.001,0.001,0.016).Conclusions Conventional cytogenetics combined with RT-PCR and FISH can enhance the detection rate of genetic abnormalities in childhood ALL.Genetic abnormalities combined with early treatment response in ALL can better guide the clinical treatment and prognosis assessment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment effect and prognosis of children with nearly diploid neuroblastoma (NB).Methods:A retrospective analysis of the general clinical characteristics (including age, Gender, risk grouping, location of primary tumor, etc.), laboratory test results, treatment and recent prognosis of NB children with nearly diploidy in bone marrow chromosomes by G-banding technology who admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018. Kaplan- Meier method was adopted to calculate survival rate.Univariate analysis was performed using Log- Rank test, and multivariate analysis was conducted with Cox regression model. Results:A total of 43 patients, including 27 males and 16 females, with diagnosis were included, with 14 cases in the hypodiploid group and 29 cases in the hyperdiploid group, and the median age was 35.5 months.The 43 children were all in the high-risk group of International Neuroblastoma Staging System(INSS)-Ⅳ.The primary tumors were mainly located in the retroperitoneal adrenal region (83.7%, 36/43 cases). The largest diameter of the tumors was more than 10 cm (53.5%, 23/43 cases), and often accompanied by 2 or more metastases at the time of consultation.In terms of chromosome karyotype and chromosome karyotype of 14 children in the hypodiploid group was 41-45, the most common karyotype was 45 chromosomes[9 cases(64.3%)]. Among 29 children in the hyperdiploid group of the 47 chromosome karyotypes, 11 cases were common (37.9%). Tumor markers were as follows: neuron enolase (NSE) increased in 41 cases children (95.3%) at first diagnosis, and 25 cases (58.1%)> 370 μg/L; 42 cases (97.7%)had lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The LDH of children in the hypodiploid group was all> 500 U/L, with 1 case was> 10 000 U/L.Nine cases (20.9%) of MYCN gene were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Treatment and prognosis: the total course of chemotherapy for 43 patients was 1-12, 19(44.2%) patients received autologous stem cell transplantation, 21 patients (46.5%) received postoperative or autologous radiotherapy or metaiodobenzylguanidine treatment, 28 children developed or relapsed with a median duration of 13.8 months, and 15 cases (34.9%) died.The median follow-up time of the 14 children in the hypodiploid group was 14.9 months (2-38 months), 12 cases progressed or relapsed, and 7 died.The median follow-up of 29 children in the hyperdiploid group was 20.0 months (8.1-51.6 months), with 16 patients progressed or relapsed and 8 cases died. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis illustrated that the 3-year projected event free survival (EFS) rate of 43 children was 18.4%, of which 17.1% were in the hypodiploid group and 29.8% in the hyperdiploid group. Conclusions:Preliminary analysis reveals that children with nearly diploid NB are mostly in the stage Ⅳ high-risk group over the age of 18 months, and 2 or more metastases at the time of consultation.The 3-year estimated EFS of 43 children was 18.4%, and the prognosis was worse in the hypodiploid group.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of compound nutrient assisted phototherapy on neonatal jaundice.Methods Neonatologists at seven hospitals participated in the study.A total of three hundred and twenty full-term newborns with high indirect bilirubin admitted to hospital from September 2017 to January 2018 were selected.One hundred and sixty-six cases in the observation group,and one hundred and fifty-four cases in the control group,all enrolled neonates were given single-sided,conventional intensity phototherapy.Observation group took compound nutrient at the same time.The average gestational age,age,birth weight of two groups before treatment were not significantly different.Serum total biilirubin,indirect bidirubin,liver function (ALT,AST) and phototherapy time were monitored before treatment and 3 days after treatment.Results The serum total bilirubin in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group after 3 days of treatment[(196.7 ± 57.2) μmol/L vs (216.5 ± 54.6) μmol/L],(t=3.17,P＜0.01).The indirect bilirubin in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group after 3 days of treatment [(176.3 ± 54.3) μmol/L vs (197.2 ± 52.9) μmol/L],(t=3.50,P＜0.01).The time of phototherapy of the children in the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group[(19.8 ± 14.4)d vs (22.9 ± 13.3) d],(t =2.00,P ＜ 0.01).Rash,fever,bronze disease,spilled milk,vomiting,abdominal distention,diarrhea,constipation,liver damage etc.were no significant difference the observation group and the control group(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compound nutrients had good efficacy and safety in adjuvant phototherapy for neonatal high indirect bidirubin.

Objective:To summarize the clinical features of neuroblastoma (NB) with bone metastasis in infants and the prognostic factors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 32 patients aged ≤12 months who were enrolled in Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2010 to December 2019 and had imaging findings suggesting signs of distant bone metastasis.The control group was included NB children, aged ≤12 months, who were admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University during the same period, without signs of distant bone destruction.The clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations of infants with bone metastasis were summarized, and the efficacy evaluation and survival analysis of infants with regular treatment and follow-up were conducted until December 31, 2020. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis was used for prognostic analysis, and Log Rank test was used for univariate prognostic analysis. Results:There were 32 NB infants with bone metastases, involving 12 males (37.5%) and 20 females (62.5%), accounting for 16.0% (32/200 cases) of infants diagnosed with NB du-ring the same period.The median age of onset was 9 (4.5-12.0) months.The main primary site included the retroperitoneal and adrenal region in 24 cases(75.0%) and mediastinum in 3 cases (9.4%). Among the 32 cases, 14 cases (43.8%) had simple bone metastasis, 19 cases (59.4%) had distant lymph nodes, 18 cases (56.3%) had bone marrow, and 3 cases (9.4%) had intracranial and meningeal metastasis.Bone metastasis mainly occurred in the skull, with 11 cases of single bone metastases and the remaining with 2 or more bone metastases.Compared with 168 NB infants without bone metastasis, the prognosis of those with bone metastasis was significantly worse [3-year overall survival(OS) rate 97.6% vs.82.7%, P=0.001]. Univariate analysis showed that the prognosis of NB children with bone marrow metastasis, meningeal and intracranial metastasis, MYCN gene amplification, and high-risk group was poor (all P<0.05). Two patients returned to the local hospital for treatment after diagnosis.A total of 30 children were recruited for efficacy evaluation and prognostic analysis.Twenty-nine children underwent surgery, of which 6 cases received surgery before chemotherapy and 23 cases received surgery after chemotherapy.One case received chemotherapy only.The mean course of chemotherapy was 6.2 (4-13) times.One case was treated with radiotherapy, 1 case was treated with Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) therapy, and 1 case was treated with stem cell transplantation.A total of 18 cases (62.1%) event-free survived, and 12 cases (40.0%) had a mean event at 7 (1.5-32.0) months.Among them, 7 cases survived and 5 cases died (16.7%). The expected 3-year event-free survival rate and OS rate were 57.1% and 82.7%, respectively. Conclusions:The most common sites of infant NB metastasis are bone and bone marrow, and the most common sites of bone metastasis are skull.Infants with bone metastasis had a worse prognosis than those without bone metastasis, and infants with bone and bone marrow metastasis had a worse prognosis than infants with single bone metastasis.
