ABSTRACT
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage after ischemia significantly influences stroke outcome. Compound LFHP-1c was previously discovered with neuroprotective role in stroke model, but its mechanism of action on protection of BBB disruption after stroke remains unknown. Here, we show that LFHP-1c, as a direct PGAM5 inhibitor, prevented BBB disruption after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) in rats. Mechanistically, LFHP-1c binding with endothelial PGAM5 not only inhibited the PGAM5 phosphatase activity, but also reduced the interaction of PGAM5 with NRF2, which facilitated nuclear translocation of NRF2 to prevent BBB disruption from ischemia. Furthermore, LFHP-1c administration by targeting PGAM5 shows a trend toward reduced infarct volume, brain edema and neurological deficits in nonhuman primate

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of serum miR-187 and miR-143 in the development and diagnosis of gallbladder cancer.Methods 75 serum samples in patients with gallbladder cancer were selected as gallbladder cancer group.75 serum samples in patients with gallbladder benign disease and 45 serum samples in healthy physical examinations at same period were selected as the benign gallbladder disease group and healthy control group.Quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect the serum miR-187 and miR-143 expression in each group,and the expression of those related with the clinicopathological factors,the proliferation and migration of gallbladder cancer cells,and the efficacy in diagnosis of gallbladder cancer was observed.Results The serum miR-187 expression in gallbladder cancer group was significantly higher than that in benign gallbladder disease and healthy control;the serum expression of that in benign gallbladder disease was significantly higher than that in healthy control;after surgery,the expression of that was significantly lower than that before treatment (all P ＜ 0.05).The serum expression of miR-143 in gallbladder cancer group was significantly lower than that in benign gallbladder disease and healthy control;the serum expression of that in benign gallbladder disease was significantly lower than that in healthy control;after surgery the serum expression of that was significantly higher than that before surgery (all P ＜0.05).The serum expression levels of miR-187 and miR-143 in gallbladder cancer were not correlated with gender and age (both P ＞ 0.05),and were significantly correlated with Nevin stage,TNM stage,differentiation and lymphatic metastasis (all P ＜ 0.05).Furthermore,it was confirmed that miR-187 promoted the proliferation and migration of gallbladder cancer cells in vitro,while miR-143 inhibited the proliferation and migration.In the diagnosis of gallbladder,the diagnostic efficacy of miR-187 and miR-143 was significantly better than that of CA199 and CA242 (both P ＜ 0.05).Combined detection could further improve the efficacy in diagnosis of gallbladder cancer.Conclusions miR-187 and miR-143 are involved in the development of gallbladder cancer.Combined detection of serum miR-187 and miR-143 in gallbladder cancer has a high diagnostic efficiency in the diagnosis of gallbladder cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the diagnosis, classification and treatment of pancreatic duct stones (PDS) .Methods:Clinical data and prognosis of 32 patients with PDS treated in our hospital from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment methods were summarized.Results:All 32 cases were diagnosed with PDS by imaging examinations such as B ultrasonography, CT, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) . The diagnosis accuracy was 81.3% (26/32) for B-ultrasound, 86.2% (25/29) for CT, 90.4% (19/21) for MRCP, and 100% (8/8) for ERCP. According to the location of stones and intraoperative exploration, the 32 patients were divided into 3 groups: Type I, 17 patients, the stones were located in the main pancreatic duct; TypeⅡ, 11 patients, the stones were located in both main and branch pancreatic duct; Type Ⅲ, 4 patients, the stones were located in the branch pancreatic duct. Different treatment methods were employed according to the different types. No patient died in the perioperative period. 11 (34.3%) patients had postoperative complications. 3 (9.3%) patients had postoperative residual stones. 32 cases were followed up for a period of 6 to 60 months. The abdominal pain and steatorrhea disappeared or significantly improved postoperatively. 2 patients complicated with pancreatic cancer died 12 to 35 months after operation.Conclusions:The treatment and diagnosis of the PDS still remains complicated. Imaging examinations are the main methods for diagnosis of PDS. The accurate classification and individual treatment are important. Surgery is the most commonly used method for PDS.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the efficacy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ER-CP) and laparotomy in treatment of acute gallstone cholangitis and their impact on the levels of serum amyloid A (SAA),C-reactive protein (CRP) and endothelin-1 (ET-1).Methods 80 patients with acute gallstone cholangitis,from Jan.2013 to Dec.2016,were divided into observation group(35 cases) and the control group (45 cases)according to the surgical procedure.The observation group received ERCP,and the control group were performed with open cholecystectomy,common bile duct extraction and T-tube placement.The operation time,blood loss,gastrointestinal function recovery time,hospital stay,and the success rate of stone removal,and the levels of SAA,and changes in CRP and ET-1 before and after treatment were observed in each group.Results Compared with the control group,the observation group had shorter operative time [(76.43±9.82)min vs (69.28±7.53) min,P=0.000],less blood loss[(1 1.73±2.83)ml vs (78.41±3.28) ml,P=0.000],shorter gastrointestinal function recovery time [(29.53±3.27) h vs (78.33±8.43) h,P=0.000],and shorter hospital stay [(5.73±1.32)d vs (8.54±1.62) d,P=0.000],while the success rate of stone removal was not significantly different between the two groups (97.14％ vs 95.56％,P＞0.01).Before treatment,the levels of SAA,CRP and ET-1 had no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The levels of SAA,CRP and ET-1 in the two groups after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment (P＜0.01),while the levels decreased more in the observation group compared with that in the control group (P＜0.01).Conclusions The endoscopic therapy and laparotomy in treatment of acute cholangitis stones have both achieved good efficacy.Compared ith laparotomy,ERCP has faster recovery,shorter hospital stay,and quicker subsided inflammation.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,surgical indications and methods of children sylvian cistern arachnoid cysts complicated with subdural hematoma.Methods Fifty childhood cases of sylvian cistern arachnoid cyst complicated with subdural hematoma were retrospectively analyzed,who were all surgically treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from July 2005 to August 2015.Among them,20 childhood cases were subacute subdural hematoma,30 childhood cases were chronic subdural hematoma.All patients underwent microscopic cyst excision,cystocistern fenestration plus hematoma removal surgery.During the surgery,firstly we resected the cyst wall tissue as far as possible,and then we communicated the cyst with subarachnoid space and cisterns,which could make the cerebrospinal fluid flowed unobstructedly.Results The course of every operation was smooth,and there was no severe complication postoperatively.Original symptoms and imaging manifestation resolved or improved in all patients.During a mean follow-up period of 5.7 years,there were no recurrent cases.Conclusion Children sylvian cistern arachnoid cyst can induce subdural hematoma.In this situation,microscopic cyst excision,cystocistern fenestration plus hematoma removal surgery is safe and effective.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy of micro?surgery for the treatment of medulla oblongata cavernomas. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 21 patients with cavernous hemangioma who received micro?surgical treatment. Of the 21 patients, 13 were men and 8 women,aged 22 to 63 years. The preoperative Karnofsky performance status(KPS)score was 76.5 ± 10.2. The main clinical manifestations included sensory disorder and difficulty swallowing etc. According to the location of the lesions ,the posterior transchoroidal fissure approach was employed for 16 patients;far?lateral approach,5 patients. Electrophysiological monitoring and nervous system navigation were supple?mentarily adopted in both types of surgery. Further ,KPS scoring was conducted to evaluate the patients 'quality of life. Results The medulla cav?ernous hemangioma was excised in all cases. For 17 patients with primary neurological disorders ,their symptoms were alleviated or resolved;4 pa?tients had severe symptoms and 8 presented with new clinical symptoms. A follow?up visit was conducted 8 to 97 months post?surgery(average 47.6 months). All patients were found capable of caring for themselves in daily life and performing simple or normal learning and working activities without recurrence or bleeding. The mean postoperative KPS score was 83.7 ± 15.5. Conclusion Patients with medulla cavernous hemangioma bleeding or severe symptoms should actively seek surgical treatment. Repeated bleeding is the absolute indication for surgery. Surgical skills ,elec?trophysiological monitoring,and nervous system navigation can reduce nervous system damage and protect the brainstem. The patient's quality of life is expected to significantly improve after surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the operative results of removing large olfactory groove meningiomas(diameter≥3 cm)using either a unilat?eral or bilateral subfrontal approach ,and to determine whether there is an advantage in the unilateral approach. Methods Sixty?nine cases of large olfactory groove meningioma,treated in our department,by either a unilateral or bilateral subfrontal approach microsurgery were retrospec?tively reviewed. Removal grading,post?operative complications,and other clinical indices were evaluated. Results Total resection(Simpson Ⅰ or Ⅱ)was achieved in all the cases. There were lesser complications with use of the unilateral subfrontal approach. Conclusion Patients with ol?factory groove meningioma have a good prognosis when a unilateral subfrontal approach is used for surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the expression of adult and neonatal Nav1.5 isoforms in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons of rats with spared nerve injury (SNI) . Methods:The expression of adult and neonatal Nav1.5 isoforms in the DRG neurons of rats with SNI was detected by RT-PCR, DNA sequencing, restriction enzyme digestion, immunohistochemistry and immunofluo-rescence methods. The expression of PKC-γwas detected by Western blot. Results:Both adult and neonatal Nav1.5 isoforms were expressed in the DRG neurons, but their expression ratio was approximately 2.5∶1. In SNI rat models, the expression of both adult and neonatal Nav1.5 isoforms decreased by approximately a half in both mRNA and protein levels. In contrast, the expression of PKC-γincreased by approximately one-fold. Conclusions:Both adult and neonatal Nav1.5 isoforms expressed in the DRG neurons of rat,but their expression levels decrease in pain models. The up-regulation of PKC-γmay directly or indirectly down-regulate the expression of Nav1.5 isoforms in SNI rat models,which may further involve in the pathological process of neuropathic pain.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the synergetic effect of HBX protein and M2 macrophages in inflammatory microenvironment on invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells.Methods Hep3B cells were infected with recombinant lentivirus carrying HBx gene,following co-culture with THP-1 original M2 macrophages.The cells were divided into six groups:two infected groups (Hep3B +and Hep3B + + M2),four non-infected groups (Hep3B-,Hep3B-+ LV5,Hep3B-+ M2,Hep3B-+LV5 + M2).Western blot (WB) was used to assess the expression changes of E-cadherin and N-cadherin,markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).The cellular location of EMT markers was observed by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy.Transwell assay was used to evaluate the invasion ability of Hep3B cells.Results HBX protein overexpressed in Hep3B cells by lentivirus infection.After 72 h co-culture with M2 macrophages,WB results showed that E-cadherin descreased significantly in Hep3B+ (0.42 ±0.11) when compared with Hep3B-(1.00 ±0.18) (t =4.762,P ＜0.05),while N-cadherin was significantly higher in Hep3B + (2.85 ± 0.44) than in Hep3B-(1.00 ± 0.17) (t =4.762,P ＜ 0.05).M2macrophages decreased E-cadherin expression in Hep3 B + + M2 (0.1 ± 0.13) compared with Hep3 B + (t =3.255,P ＜0.05),while N-cadherin expression increased in Hep3B+ + M2 (4.18 ± 0.52) (t=10.009,P ＜ 0.05).Non-Infected groups didn't change the markers of E-cadherin and N-cadherin.It was suggested that invasion ability of Hep3B increased by HBx overexpression.Conclusions HBX protein and M2 macrophages synergetically mediated the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by EMT.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the significance of multiple microelectrode guided technique in determining the sensory?motor area of the sub?thalamic nucleus(STN)in deep brain stimulation(DBS)surgeries. Methods A total of 22 electrophysiological recording data of STNs recorded by multiple microelectrode was retrospectively analyzed ,while another 20 electrophysiological recording data of STNs recorded by a single micro?electrode was recruited as the control group. Results A total of 64 microelectrodes were used in 22 STNs guided by multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes. Sensory or motor activated potentials were recorded in 21 sides(95.5%),while regular discharge was recorded in one side. The average length of typical STN activity on the optimal channel of multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes was 5.58±0.53 mm,and the average length of sensory or motor activated potentials was 3.27±1.54 mm. In contrast,the average length of typical STN activity recorded by single microelectrode was 5.02±1.01 mm. However,sensory or motor activated potentials were recorded in 13 sides(65.0%)with the average length of 1.36±0.98 mm. Among the 22 STNs guided by multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes,the final implanted target was consistent with the initially selected anatomic target in 13 sides(coincidence rate,59.1%). In 9 sides,the electrophysiological target was inconsistent with the initially selected anatomic target. Conclusion STN DBS performed with multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes resulted in better outcomes of recording of the average length of typical STN activity or the average length of sensory or motor activated potentials of STN ,final confirmation of STN sensory motor area and determination of the optimal channel of implantation. Application of multiple electrophysiological recording electrodes provides a premise for the precise electrode placement in STN DBS surgeries.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the risk factors for coagulopathy in acute isolated traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods A retrospective study was performed on 191 patients with acute isolated TBI hospitalized from July 2012 to June 2015.There were 70 patients with coagulopathy (coagulopathy group) and 121 patients without coagulopathy (control group).Age,gender,injury type,midline shift on CT and injury severity (Glasgow Coma Scale,GCS) were analyzed to identify the independent risk factors for coagulopathy using the logistic regression analysis.Correlation between the independent risk factors and coagulation indices was analyzed.Results Injury severity,acute subdural hematoma,intraventricular bleeding and midline shift on CT were identified as the independent risk factors for coagulopathy(P ＜ 0.05,OR ＞ 1).Furthermore,injury severity and acute subdural hematoma were respectively associated with abnormalities of international normalized ratio (INR) and fibrinogen (Fg) (P ＜0.05 or P ＜ 0.01),intraventricular bleeding with abnormalities of prothrombin time (PT) and platelet count (PC) (P ＜ 0.01),and midline shift on CT with abnormalities of Fg and PC (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Injury severity,acute subdural hematoma,intraventricular bleeding and midline shift on CT are independent risk factors for coagulopathy in patients with acute isolated TBI,and correlate with abnormalities of several coagulation indices.Changes in coagulation indices should be monitored accurately after TBI,and timely treatment of coagulopathy can improve the prognosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation between the glucose variability and the severity of acute isolated traumatic brain injury(TBI). Method According to the inclusion/exclusion criteria,a total of 125 cases of acute isolated TBI admitted in Department of Neurosurgery of China Medical University from July 2012 to June 2015 were included. According to Glasgow coma scale(GSC),the patients were divided into five groups including control(GCS 15),mild(GCS 13?14),moderate(GCS 9?12),severe(GCS 6?8),and extra?severe(GCS 3?5)groups. Blood glucose control(including relief of the stress and the application of insulin)were carried out immediately. The average,standard deviation,and variation co?efficient of blood glucose of all groups were recorded at admission,48 hours and 3?7 days after hospitalization. The clinical records and glycemic in?dex were compared among different groups and during different periods,so as to analyze the relationship of the variability of glucose and the duration of hyperglycemia with the severity of TBI and the effects of glycemic intensive care management. Results The results of Kruskal Wallis test and Mann?Whitney Utest showed that the average,standard deviation,and variation coefficient of glucose in the extra?severe group and the severe group were statistically higher than those in the control group(P1). Conclusion The glucose variability in acute isolated TBI patients could be considered as the index of the severity of TBI.
