Objective·To investigate the pathological and physiological changes underlying noise-induced cochlear nucleus damage and the regulating function of astrocytes on the damage,using a combination of morphological analysis,and molecular biology techniques.Methods·Forty-eight male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into two groups and exposed to 110 dB SPL(sound pressure level)broadband noise for 2 hours.Auditory brainstem response(ABR)tests were performed on the mice on days 1,7,14,30,and 90 after the noise exposure.Immunofluorescence staining of cochlear nuclear tissue was conducted to observe cochlear nuclear neurons and auditory synapses,as well as astrocyte activation levels.In addition,the damage to the cochlear nuclear neurons and synapses caused by noise was verified through Western blotting.Results·A significant decrease in cochlear nuclear Bushy cells after noise exposure was observed.The Western blotting results showed that there was severe loss of nerve fibers in cochlear nuclear neurons,indicating that noise caused significant damage to cochlear nucleus neurons.Moreover,a significant loss of auditory synapses labeled with vesicular glutamate transporter 1(Vglutl)was observed,which was the severest on day 14 after noise exposure and slowly recovered on day 90.Interestingly,astrocytes in the cochlear nucleus displayed obvious clustering and activation after noise exposure.By staining with glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),most astrocytes were distributed around the cochlear nucleus,granule cell area,and auditory nerve root before noise exposure,and they had a small size.However,on day 14 after noise exposure,a large number of activated astrocytes aggregated in the ventral cochlear nucleus,and they all showed a pattern of growth around the synapses.Conclusion·Noise exposure leads to significant damage in the cochlear nucleus,and it is possible that astrocytes are involved in its damage and repair processes.These findings will provide a crucial foundation for further understanding the mechanisms of sound signal analysis,integration,and neural plasticity in the cochlear nucleus.

Objective To investigate the related factor underlying the differential vulnerability of inner hair cell(IHC)ribbon synapses to noise exposure.Methods Twenty-eight C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the noise exposure group(NED1)and the control group(CTR)with 14 mice in each group.The noise exposure group was exposed to bandpass noise of 2～20 kHz at 103 dB SPL for two hours while the control group was bred in a quiet environment.Before and after noise exposure,auditory brainstem response was conducted to detect the audi-tory function,whole-mount immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the number of inner hair cell ribbon synapses in different turns.The calcium influx of inner hair cells in the apical and middle turn using whole-cell patch clamp recording was analyzed.Furthermore,the immunofluorescence intensity of calpain in inner hair cells from dif-ferent mouse cochlear turns using whole-mount immunofluorescence staining was compared.Western blotting was used to verify that CtBP2 was degraded by calpain.Results After noise exposure,the ABR threshold of 11.3,16.0,22.6,32.0 kHz increased significantly and the number of ribbon synapses of inner hair cells at the middle turn and basal turn of the cochlea decreased significantly.However,whole-cell patch clamp recordings showed that calcium ion channels were fewer but single-channel current was higher at the apical turn of the cochlea.The open probability of calcium ion channels in IHCs showed no significant difference between the apical turn and the middle turn of the cochlea.But the expression level of calpain of the inner hair cells at the middle and basal turn of the basi-lar membrane was significantly higher than that at the apical turn after noise exposure.The western blotting results also showed that CtBP2 was cleaved in a Ca2+-dependent manner by calpain.Conclusion Calpain may be the main related factor that accounts for the vulnerability of ribbon synapses in inner hair cells in the high frequency region of basal membrane.

Objective: To analyze and explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with "double hit" multiple myeloma (MM) . Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 89 MM patients in our department of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital from 2010-2016. All patients were assayed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and TP53 gene sequencing, based on Dr. Walker BA proposed the "double hit" MM concept, and then the clinical features and prognosis were evaluated. Results: In the results, 15 (16.85%) cases harbored "double hit" showed the median PFS of 8.4 months and the median OS 22.2 months, which was significantly lower than non-"double hit" patients with median PFS 14.2 months and the median OS 39.2 months, respectively (P<0.05) . Multivariate analysis displayed that the "double hit" was an independent poor prognostic factor on PFS (HR=2.171, 95%CI 1.206-3.907, P=0.010) and OS (HR=4.106, 95%CI 2.116-7.969, P<0.001) . Moreover, "double hit" MM patients had the higher adverse prognosis risk, which showed the shorter median OS and PFS than stage III of R-ISS patients (PFS 8.4 vs 11.8 months; OS 22.2 vs 24.3 months, P<0.05, respectively) . Conclusion Patients with "double hit" MM have a very poor clinical prognosis. Prospective clinical studies are urgently needed to improve these extra high risk patients.

Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of serum free light chain ratio (rFLC) and difference (dFLC) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) . Methods: Clinical data of 479 cases of newly diagnosed MM patients with FLC test records referred to our hospital from January 2012 to March 2016 were collected. rFLC preferred cut-off values were selected as≤14.828,14.828-364.597, ≥364.597 according to the literatures. The dFLC was divided into ≤112.85,112.85-2891.83, ≥2891.83 mg/L three groups. The rFLC and dFLC values among the death, the non-death, the progress and the non-progress groups were compared by t test. The correlation analysis showed that the rFLC and dFLC values were related to the death or progression of the disease. Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between each factor and death or progression. Univariate survival analysis (PFS) and total survival (OS) were performed using Kaplan-Meier. Single-variable and multivariate prognostic analysis were performed using Cox model. Results: The cutoff values of rFLC less than 14.828 or dFLC less than or equal to 112.85 mg/L impacted most significant on OS and PFS of the patients (P<0.05) . Different rFLC cut-off values between two groups showed that when rFLC=14.828, OS was significantly better than the other two groups (NR vs 61 & 47 months, P=0.019) ; different dFLC cut-off values between two groups disclosed that PFS and OS were statistically significant when dFLC less than or equal to 112.85 mg/L compared with the other two groups (P<0.05) . The 4-year PFS/OS rates in the initial dFLC≤112.85 mg/L and rFLC≤14.828 groups was significantly higher than of the other two groups. Conclusion Different cutoff levels of rFLC and dFLC might have obviously effects on the prognoses of patients with newly diagnosed MM. The difference of survival prognosis would be more pronounced when rFLC≤14.828 or dFLC≤112.85 mg/L with lower risk of death and lower risk ratio, which might be ideal cutoff value for determining the prognosis of these patients.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic value of multicolor scanning laser imaging (confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, cSLO) combined with swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) for lacquer cracks (LC) and myopia stretch lines (MSL) of pathological myopia.Methods A observational study. A total of 83 eyes of 58 patients with pathological myopia were recruited from May 2017 to January 2018 in Department of Ophthalmology of The First People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Among 58 patients, 20 were males (30 eyes) and 38 were females (53 eyes). The mean age was 50.65±12.02 (range from 24 to 70) years old; the average BCVA was 0.37±0.32; the average diopter was?11.38±4.96 D; and the average axial length was 28.91±2.15 mm. All participants underwent FFA and ICGA examination to obtain FFA, ICGA, infrared light reflection (IR) and autofluorescence (AF) images. SS-OCT was applied for scanning macular and optic disc at 9 mm× 9 mm range. cSLO was performed with macular as the center. All images were inspected carefully by three independent observers and the consistency test was detect. LC were diagnosed as hyperreflective line in FFA and hypofluorescent linear lesions in late ICGA. MSL were defined as both hypofluorescent linear lesions in FFA and late ICGA. The accuracy of each inspection item in the diagnosis of LC was detected. The optimal technique was applied with SS-OCT to further explore the detection rate of LC.Results The intra-observer reproducibility was good to excellent for all measurements (Kappa=0.938,P<0.01). The positive detection rate of LC and MSL was highest in the standard images of cSLO (77.1％), followed by SS-OCT red free (73.1％), fundus photography (72.3％), IR (72.3％) and AF (49.4％). The cSLO was optimal in the test consistency (Kappa=0.520,P<0.01) and accuracy (the area under the receiver operating characteristic was 0.750). SS-OCT and cSLO were jointly applied to diagnosis of LC and MSL in high myopia. The positive detection rate of LC, MSL and LC+MSL were 91.7％, 91.2％ and 93.3％respectively. The characteristics of LC in SS-OCT were irregularities and discontinuous of the RPE-Bruch membrane line, discontinuous inner ellipsoid zone, thinner choroid, an increased light penetrance into deeper tissues, and RPE fracture in severe cases. MSL was mainly manifested as RPE clumps, visible large choroidal vessels protruding and pushing the overlying RPE toward the vitreous.Conclusions The diagnosis rate of LC in pathological myopia by cSLO is 77.1％. The standard images of cSLO combined with SS-OCT can diagnose LC, MSL and LC+MSL at rates of 91.7％, 91.2％ and 93.3％ respectively.
