简介:目的探讨大剂量高压氧治疗方案对永久陆大脑中动脉闭塞大鼠的疗效以及高压氧对大鼠梗死部位周围脑组织核因子κB(nuclearfactor-κB,NF-κB)影响。方法制备雄性Sprague--Dawley大鼠永久陛大脑中动脉闭塞模型,随机分为高压氧组和对照组,每组32X,另设立伪手术组。使用Garcia神经行为学评分方法分别在术后24h、5d对大鼠进行神经行为学评分;应用2,3,5一三苯基氯化四氮唑(2,5,5-trjphenyltetrazolfumchlorid,TTC)方法对脑组织进行染色,观察24h、5d时大鼠脑组织梗死容积;取梗死部位周围脑组织,采用凝胶电泳迁移实验(electrophoreticmobilityshiftassay,EMSA)方法检测术后24h、5d时的NF-κB脱氧核糖核酸(deoxyribonucleicacid,DNA)结合活性。比较三组间上述指标的差异。结果术后24h高压氧组神经行为学评分高于对照组[(13.33±1.53)坩(10.33±0.58),P〈0.001]。术后24h高压氧组梗死容积小于对照组[(139.75±33.59)坩(203.02±57.66),P=0.008]。术后5d高压氧组梗死部位周围脑组织NF-κB活性低于对照组[(16.01±4.56)坩(50.28±9.15),P=0.035]。结论大剂量高压氧治疗方案在脑梗死后24h内具有脑保护作用。大剂量高压氧可降低大鼠梗死部位周围脑组织NF-κBDNA结合活性。

简介:目的检测肝豆状核变性(Wilsondisease,WD)ATP7B基因启动子区的DNA序列,分析其结构,发现存在的突变,通过报告基因瞬时表达研究突变对启动子功能的影响.方法检测36个WD家系71名成员(其中48例WD患者)及20名正常人的基因组DNA序列并进行分析.对发现的突变,进行荧光素酶报告基因瞬时表达研究.结果(1)在正常对照、患者一级亲属和WD患者的启动子区-190、-78和+260位(转录起始点为+1)均发现存在单个碱基的不同;(2)在48例病人中发现3例存在-183位C→T突变,其中2例为纯合突变,另1例为杂合突变,在正常对照、患者一级亲属中未发现此改变;(3)通过荧光素酶报告基因瞬时表达研究,发现-183位C→T突变不影响ATP7B基因启动子的功能.结论本研究在ATP7B基因启动子区未发现存在致病突变,提示ATP7B基因启动子区存在致病突变在中国人群中是不常见的.

简介:目的探讨多b值磁共振弥散加权成像(diffusionweightedimaging,DWI)及表观扩散系数(apparentdiffusioncoefficient,ADC)术前预测垂体腺瘤质地的应用价值。方法选取57例术后病理证实为垂体腺瘤的患者纳入研究。所有患者均在术前进行3.0TMRI多b值DWI扫描(b=0,b=1000s/mm2,b=2000s/mm2),以及内分泌激素检查。选取两种b值(b=1000、2000s/mm2)重建ADC图,并获取肿瘤实质区域的ADC值。根据术中肿瘤质地将患者分为质软组及质韧组;比较两种b值下,质软组与质韧组ADC均值的差异性;并分析肿瘤质地与患者性别、年龄、激素分型及肿瘤胶原含量的相关性。结果b1000中,质软组与质韧组ADC均值的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);b2000中,两组间ADC均值的差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。在b1000和b2000中,肿瘤质地与患者年龄、性别及激素分型均无明显相关性;而质软组的肿瘤胶原含量均明显低于质韧组(均P<0.05)。结论垂体腺瘤的质地与ADC值及肿瘤胶原含量有密切关系,与患者的性别、年龄及激素分型无关。DWI和ADC可在术前预测肿瘤质地,为手术入路的选择提供影像学依据。
简介:S100蛋白是一种分子量较小(10~12ku)的EF-手型钙结合蛋白,通过对钙离子的调节及与靶蛋白的相互作用,在体内发挥多种生物学作用.在细胞增殖、分化,肌肉收缩、基因表达、分泌及细胞凋亡中发挥重要作用。1965年Moore等首先在牛脑组织中发现S100蛋白,因其在中性饱和硫酸铵中100%溶解而得名。现已发现S100蛋白家族成员20个,S100B蛋白为其中一员,

简介:目的:探讨低频段小探头B超(LFSPU;频率范围3-9MHz)在神经外科手术中的应用价值。方法收集2014年1月至2014年12月利用LFSPU辅助颅脑手术的病例98例,其中脑肿瘤68例,脑脓肿12例,婴幼儿脑积水分流手术10例,脑内血肿8例。结果婴幼儿前囟或3cm×2cm骨窗即可满足LFSPU探头置放和探测需求,探测距离在7cm以上,探测到最小病灶直径为1.0cm,最深5.5cm。LFSPU均显示所有病灶、脑室端分流管和脓肿穿刺针,定位成功率为100%;肿瘤病灶切除后,术中LFSPU发现残留肿瘤23例,继续切除16例(病理学证实为肿瘤13例),7例因残留病灶位于重要区域未进一步切除。结论术中LFSPU可通过小骨窗和未闭前囟进行探测,实时动态监测手术过程,在神经外科手术中有重要的临床价值。

简介:目的:研究脑肿瘤手术前后血清S100B蛋白水平的改变,并分析其与患者临床资料的相关性,评估血清S100B对术后脑损伤的反映能力。方法30例胶质瘤、28例脑膜瘤和15例听神经瘤患者于手术前(入院时)、手术后第1d、第3d、第7d分别采集血清;同时记录患者手术时长、肿瘤WHO级别、肿瘤体积、脑水肿体积、KPS等临床资料。设正常对照组33例,采集单次血清。用双抗体夹心法ELISA检测血清S100B含量。将手术前后血清S100B水平进行重复测量方差分析;将血清S100B水平与手术时长、肿瘤体积等临床资料进行相关性分析。结果术前血清S100B水平在各脑肿瘤组之间的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),胶质瘤组、脑膜瘤组则高于正常对照组(均P<0.05)。术后第1d、第3d血清S100B含量无明显改变(P>0.05),术后第7d时高于手术前水平(P<0.05),这种趋势在3个脑肿瘤组之间并无差别。在胶质瘤组中,术后第3、7d血清S100B含量与术后脑水肿体积呈正相关(均P<0.05);术后第1d、第3d血清S100B含量与胶质瘤病理级别呈正相关(均P<0.05)。在听神经瘤组中,手术前、术后第3d血清S100B含量与听神经瘤肿瘤体积呈负相关(均P<0.05),术后第7d血清S100B水平与手术时长呈正相关(P<0.05)。脑膜瘤组内未见任何相关性。结论血清S100B对脑肿瘤切除术后的脑损伤反映较差,其含量升高可能与损伤后神经修复活动有关。血清S100B含量与胶质瘤的病理级别、术后脑水肿程度有一定的相关性,与听神经瘤体积及手术时长存在相关性。脑肿瘤术前血清S100B升高可能反映了肿瘤对脑实质的压迫损伤。
简介:目的研究红藻氨酸(KA)致痫大鼠海马S100B、降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)的表达及病理改变。方法雄性SD大鼠按照完全随机数字表法分成对照组(8只)和模型组(40只),模型组再根据处死时间分为造模后6h、12h、24h、72h、1周5个亚组,每组8只。模型组采用KA建立颞叶癫痫动物模型,对照组用等体积生理盐水代替KA注射。模型组造模后6h、12h、24h、72h、1周.对照组注射后24h取大鼠海马组织行Niss1染色、Timm染色和免疫组化染色,观察S100B、CGRP蛋白的表达情况以及海马神经元和胶质细胞的病理变化。结果Nissl染色结果显示,模型组大鼠1周后CA3区出现大量固缩的坏死神经元,胞体萎缩,尼氏体消失。Timm染色结果显示,模型组大鼠1周后CA3区始层出现条带状分布的棕色颗粒,齿状回内分子层亦可见少量棕色颗粒。免疫组化染色结果显示,模型组大鼠海马CGRP蛋白大量表达,72h时达到高峰,同时伴随大量神经元丧失及胶质细胞增生。结论KA致痫大鼠出现S100B、CGRP蛋白高表达,尼氏体消失,苔藓纤维发芽等一系列病理学改变,推测S100B、CGRP蛋白参与了癫痫发生。
