Objective To investigate the pathologic foundation,clinical characteristics and CT features of microscopic polyangiitis(MPA)with lung involvement.Methods Clinical data of 6 patients of MPA with lung involvement in 2003-2006 were retrospectively analyzed.Results The types of lung imaging manifestations as the followings:(1)Mutiple flaky shadow in both lung in 3 cases.(2)Ground-glass shadow in 1 case.(3)Disseminated interstitial lung involvement in 2 cases.The main respiratory symptom was haemoptysis except cough and expectoration.Renal damaging often occurred besides the lung.Six cases with positive antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)and 5 cases with positive P-ANCA/MPO-ANCA were found in laboratory examination.Conclusions The CT manifestations of MPA with lung involvement have no characteristic features.Clinical characteristics and laboratory examination can help to understand and diagnose MPA with lung involvement early.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of hypoxic-preconditioned bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on spinal cord tissue after ischemia reperfusion injury.Methods Healthy adult Sprague Dawley (SD) rats weighing 200 ~ 250 grams (g) were randomly divided into 3 groups with 6 animals in each group:The sham group received simple surgical manipulation without ischemia/reperfusion treatment;The spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion group (Control group) only received spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion surgery.The hypoxic preconditioned BMSC transplantation group (HP-MSCs group) was injected with hypoxic preconditioned BMSCs 2 days before ischemia/reperfusion.The control group,HP-MSCs group received spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion for 10 min and observed for 48 h.The permeability of the blood-spinal cord barrier was examined with Evans blue (EB),and the histomorphology changes were observed with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining.Results EB red fluorescence was significantly weakened in the HP-MSCs group than that in the Control group (P < 0.05),and more intact motor neurons were found in the lumbar spinal cords in the HP-MSCs group than that in the Control group (P <0.05).Conclusions The hypoxic-preconditioned BMSCs could effectively attenuate spinal cord ischemia reperfusion injury,it may be associated with protective effect of the blood-spinal cord barrier integrity.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous group of immunosuppressive cells derived from bone marrow stem cells.MDSCs can not only strongly inhibit the anti-tumor immune reactions mediated by T cells,but also directly accelerate angiogenesis,tumor progression and metastasis.Nonresolving inflammation (NRI),a major driving factor in the occurrence and development of tumor,and MDSCs are present in tumor microenvironment and become hot topics in recent years.However,the relationships between MDSCs and NRI,especially in the relevant molecular regulatory networks,have not been fully elucidated.The relationships between MDSCs and NRI,the molecular regulatory networks,the key regulatory points and the strategies for targeted treatment are reviewed in this paper based on the current literatures and the work achieved by our research team.

Objective To explore the treatment of hemangioma associated with thrombopenia(Kasabach-Merritte syndrome,KMS) in infant.Methods The clinical manifestation and the therapy of 14 cases patients with KMS in hospital from 2003 to 2006 were collected ang analyzed,the 400 g/L urea(manufactured by ourself)combined with methylprednisolone local injection were used and followed 0.5 to 1.0 year.Results Two in 14 cases were emergency exairesis,7 cases were recurred for several times,12 cases were cured,1 case was improved,1 case was loss the connection.Conclusions It is an ideal therapy method to use the urea combined with glucocorticoid to treat infancy KMS,little trauma,definite effective,low side effect,high cure rate.

Objective To explore whether dynamic contrast-enhanced MRA (DCE MRA) can provide an effective assessment of renal vascular in living donors before transplantation.Methods Thirty five healthy living renal donor candidates were scanned on MR system before transplantation.After injection of Gd-DTPA 1 ml in vein, a test-bolus scan was used to get the time delay of Gd-DTPA reaching renal artery.Then, a 3D T1-weighted fast low-angle shot sequence (3D FLASH) was performed in the coronal plane.The 3D FLASH scan would repeat four times with an inter-phase of 10 seconds.Thus, the imaging of the renal arterial, venous and collecting systems were got.Two radiologists observed renal arteries and veins on original imaging and MIP reconstructed imaging.The quality of MR angiography was evaluated on a fivepoint scale and the vascular anatomy or variations of the arterial and venous systems were recorded, using intraoperative findings as a standard of reference.Results The quality for all MRA was good or very good for the most of living renal donors.Among 70 renals, several variations of vascular were found, including 5 left accessory artery, 9 right accessory artery, 3 left proximal arterial branch and 6 right proximal arterial branch.Among 70 renal veins, 1 right accessory veins and 2 left varieocele were observed.One small accessory artery of right kidney was missed with DCE MRA, but identified by operation.Conclusion DCE MRA was noninvasive tool for evaluation of the renal vasculature and variations with high accuracy.It would be a good modality in preoperative evaluation of living renal donors.

Objective To study the expression of VEGF-C and its receptor in breast carcinoma tissue and in peritumoral tissue,as well as their clinic significance.Methods Immunohistochemistry SP method was used to examine the expression of VEGF-C and VEGFR3 in 70 cases of breast cancer and in its peritu- moral tissue.Results In all 70 cases of breast cancer,the positive expression rate of VEGF-C in breast car- cinoma tissue was 78.6 %,and its rate in peritumoral tissue was 54.3 %.There was a significant stastistic dif- ference between the two groups(P

Objective To explore the correlation between the change of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and brain tissue injury from interictal epileptic activity in patients with epilepsy. Methods Fortyeight patients with epilepsy and 30 healthy persons were included in the styudy from which the serum S100β protein levels were determined by double antibody sandwich ELISA method. SPECT rCBF imaging was performed in all patients. The visal and semi-quantitative analyses were used to analyze the epileptic foci.SPSS 11.0 was applied for variance and linear correlation analyses. Results Serum S-100β in patients with interictal epileptic activity was significantly higher than that in control group ((0.572 ± 0. 163) μg/Lvs (0.218 ±0. 134) μg/L, t =9.96, P <0.01). According to epilepsy control criteria, 20 cases achieved complete control (CC), 18 cases acheived partial control (PR). However, 10 cases got no improvement,whose serum S-100β protein ((0. 809 ±0. 056) μg/L) and the percentage change of rCBF ((0. 337 ±0. 060) %) were significantly higher than those of CC ((0.443 ± 0. 083) μg/L, (0.035 ± 0.038) %) and those of PC ((0.585 ±0. 108) μg/L, (0. 187 ±0.075)%), F=56. 740, 92. 316, P <0.01. There were high correlation between serum S-100β and the percentage change of rCBF in epilepsy patients (r =0. 887,P<0.01). Conclusion Serum S-100β protein assay combined with rCBF on SPECT imaging can make semi-quantitative diagnosis of epilepsy and help evaluate the brain damage from interictal epileptic activity.
