Methods: Serum S-100 levels were serially determined in 36 patients with acute cerebral infarction within 12 h, at 24 h and day 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 10 after acute cerebral infarction and in 20 age- and sex-matched control subjects. An S-100 content assay was performed using a two-site radioimmunoassay technique. The clinical status was assessed using NIH Stroke Scale. The functional deficit at 4 weeks after acute cerebral infarction was scored using the modified Rankin scale. A cranial computed tomography was performed initially. Results: Elevated concentrations of S-100 (>0.2 μg/L) were observed in 29 of 36 patients with acute cerebral infarction,but none of the control subjects. The S-100 peak levels were at day 2 and 3 after acute cerebral infarction and were significantly high in those patients with severe neurological deficit at admission, with extensive infarction or with space-occupying effect of ischemic edema as compared with the rest of the populations. Conclusion: Serum S-100 level assay can be used as a peripheral marker of ischemic brain damage, and may be helpful for evaluation of therapeutic effects in acute ischemic stroke.展开更多

Methods: Forty patients, 20 with congenital heart disease (CHD) and 20 of rheumatic heart disease (RHD) , were divided into 2 groups: Control group (group A, n =20) including 10 patients suffering from CHD as group Al and the left 10 from RHD as group A2; and experiment group (group B, n =20) which consisting of group B1 (10 with CHD) and group B2 (10 of RHD). The patients in group A underwent traditional arrested-heart procedures, and those in group B were operated on with beating-heart procedures. Arterial blood samples were collected at preoperation (time A) , 20 min after cardiopul-monary bypass (CPB) starting (time B) , 1 h after CPB (time C) and 24 h postoperation (time D) respectively. Plasma contents of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and protein S-100b were measured with sensitive ELISA. All the patients received echoencephalography (EEG) before and 1 week after operation. Results: The plasma contents of protein S-lOOb were increased very significantly at time B, C and D in comparison with those at time A (P<0.01) , and that of patients in group Al was significantly higher than that in group B at time B (P < 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference at other time points. At time B, the plasma contents of NSE were significantly higher in group A than in group B, and in group Al and Bl than in group A2 and B2. What's more, at time B, the former fell back to their pre-operative levels, but the latter remained still higher levels than the preoperative ones ( P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in the abnormality rates of postoperative EEG between 2 groups. Conclusion: The perioperative plasma contents of NSE and protein S-100b are not significantly higher in group B than in group A. On-pump beating-heart procedures do not make more serious cerebral dysfunction than the traditional arrested-heart procedures.展开更多

However, taxane-related drug resistance and neurotoxicity have prompted us to develop substitute treatment strategies. Eg5 (kinesin spindle protein), which is crucial for bipolar spindle formation and duplicated chromosome separation during the early phase of mitosis, has emerged as an attractive target for cancer chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the anticancer efficacy of $-(methoxytrityl)-L-cysteine (S(MeO)TLC), a novel Eg5 inhibitor in prostate cancer. Eg5 expression was examined in human prostate cancer cell lines and tissue microarrays were constructed from clinical specimens. Antiproliferative activity of S(MeO)TLC in prostate cancer cells was assessed by a cell viability assay. The anticancer effect and inhibitory mechanism of S(MeO)TLC in prostate cancer cells was further explored by Hoechst staining, flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. In addition, the antitumor effect of S(MeO)TLC on subcutaneous xenograft models was assessed. Eg5 expression was identified in PC3, DU145 and LNCaP cells. More than half of prostate cancer clinical specimens displayed Eg5 expression. S(Me0)TLC exhibited more powerful anticancer activity in prostate cancer cells compared with the other four Eg5 inhibitors tested. S(MeO)TLC induced cell death after arresting dividing cells at mitosis with distinct monopolar spindle formation. S(MeO)TLC exhibited its significant inhibitory activity (P〈0.05) on subcutaneous xenograft models also through induction of mitotic arrest. We conclude that Eg5 is a good target for prostate cancer chemotherapy, and S(MeO)TLC is a potent promising anticancer agent in prostate cancer.展开更多

Methods: Following rat's sciatic nerve transection, the nerve regeneration chamber model was established, then the rat was given electro-acupuncture stimulation at the frequency of 5 Hz and frequency of 100 Hz, and the immunohistochemical staining method and image analyzing semi-quantitative technique were adopted to determine the percentage of S-100 protein area, hence to observethe effect of electro-acupuncture on the repair process of transected sciatic nerve of rat and the S-100 protein expression. Results: Electro-acupuncture could significantly potentiate the S-100 protein expression of Schwann Cells (SC) in the repair process of transected sciatic nerve. At the 14th week, 17th week and 20th week after operation, the percentages of S-100 protein area were more obviously increased in 5 Hz electro-acupuncture group and 100 Hz electro-acupuncture group than in model group, with significant differences (P〈0.05). Especially, the better effect was obtained in 5 Hz electro-acupuncture group. Judging from the dynamic treatment, it is very vital to be treated early. Conclusion: Electro-acupuncture is an effective method for the treatment of peripheral nerve injury, and its therapeutic effect is related to the improvement of SC proliferation.展开更多

文摘Objective:To explore the effects of sodium valproate combined with levetiracetam in the treatment of children epilepsy,and its influences on serum S-100βand high mobility group box-1(HMGB-1)in children with epilepsy.Methods:A total of 160 children who were diagnosed as epilepsy in Baogang Hospital of Inner Mongolia from July 2016 to October 2018 were selected as research objects.They were randomly divided into the study group(n=80)and the control group(n=80)by the random number table method,i.e.,they were treated with sodium valproate combined with levetiracetam and sodium valproate alone,respectively.After 16 weeks of treatment,the effective rates of epileptic seizure treatment and the improvement of epileptiform discharge were evaluated,and chi-square test was used for statistical comparison.The related indicators,including serum tumor necrosis factor-(TNF-α),hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),homocysteine(Hcy),haematocrit(HCT),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),serum S-100βand HMGB-1,were measured before and after treatment.Paired t-test was used for the comparison in the above indicators within a group before and after treatment;group t-test was used for the comparison between two groups.Chi-square test was used for the comparison in the rate of adverse reactions during treatment between two groups.The study was approved by Ethics Committee of Baogang Hospital(Approval No.:BG201606073),and all children’s guardians were required to sign informed consent forms for clinical study.There were no statistically significant differences between two groups in general clinical data(p>0.05),such as sex constituent ratio,age,the course of disease,the frequency of epileptic seizure per year before treatment,the incidence of epileptiform discharge before treatment and the constituent ratio of types of epileptic seizure,etc.Results:1)After treatment,the effective rates of epileptic seizure treatment and the improvement of epileptiform discharge in the study group were 92.5%(74/80)and 85.0%(68/80)respectively,which were both significantly higher than those in the control group[68.8%(55/80)and 58.8%(47/80)],and the differences were statistically significant(Х^(2)=14.444,13.635;p<0.001).2)In the study group,the levels of serum TNF-α,hs-CRP and Hcy,as well as HCT and ESR after treatment were(53.1±14.0)pg/ml,(5.0±2.5)mg/L,(12.5±3.1)μmol/L,(38.1±5.1)%and(3.0±0.5)mm/h respectively,which were all significantly lower than those[(107.9±17.8)pg/ml,(10.1±2.5)mg/L,(42.2±5.8)μmol/L,(45.3±4.5)%and(5.2±0.6)mm/h]before treatment,and all the differences were statistically significant(t=21.644,12.902,40.393,9.468,25.194;p<0.001).In the control group,the levels of serum TNF-α,hs-CRP and Hcy,as well as HCT and ESR after treatment were(60.6±17.8)pg/ml,(8.2±2.2)mg/L,(15.2±3.1)μmol/L,(40.2±3.4)%and(4.5±0.6)mm/h respectively,which were all significantly lower than those[(112.4±14.3)pg/ml,(9.3±3.8)mg/L,(41.1±2.8)μmol/L,(44.6±5.5)%and(5.4±0.8)mm/h]before treatment,and all the differences were statistically significant(t=20.292,2.241,55.456,3.320,8.050;p<0.05).After treatment,the above indicators in the study group were all significantly lower than those in the control group,and all the differences were statistically significant(t=2.962,8.595,5.508,3.064,17.178;p<0.05).3)In the study group,the levels of serum S-100βand HMGB-1 after treatment were(0.65±0.38)μg/L and(5.3±2.4)μg/L respectively,which were significantly lower than those[(0.91±0.32)μg/L and(8.1±2.0)μg/L]before treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.681,8.020;p<0.001).In the control group,the levels of serum S-100βand HMGB-1 after treatment were(0.78±0.27)μg/L and(6.4±2.2)μg/L respectively,which were significantly lower than those[(0.88±0.25)μg/L and(7.9±1.7)μg/L]before treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(t=2.431,p=.016;t=4.826,p<0.001).After treatment,the levels of serum S-100βand HMGB-1 in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(t=2.495,p=.014;t=2.840,p=.005).4)There was no significant difference between two groups in the rate of adverse reactions,such as nausea,vomiting,poor appetite,dizziness,drowsiness,hepatic and renal injury during treatment(p>0.05).Conclusions:The efficacy of sodium valproate combined with levetiracetam is obviously better than that of sodium valproate alone in the treatment of children epilepsy.The children patients’serum S-100βand HMGB-1 are more significantly reduced,resulting in a lower rate of adverse reactions,which has a certain clinical value.
文摘Objective: To observe the effects of electro-acupuncture on S-100 protein expression of nerve fibers on the regeneration process of transected sciatic nerve of rats, so as to explore the partial mechanism of electro-acupuncture treatment for peripheral nerve injury. Methods: Following rat's sciatic nerve transection, the nerve regeneration chamber model was established, then the rat was given electro-acupuncture stimulation at the frequency of 5 Hz and frequency of 100 Hz, and the immunohistochemical staining method and image analyzing semi-quantitative technique were adopted to determine the percentage of S-100 protein area, hence to observethe effect of electro-acupuncture on the repair process of transected sciatic nerve of rat and the S-100 protein expression. Results: Electro-acupuncture could significantly potentiate the S-100 protein expression of Schwann Cells (SC) in the repair process of transected sciatic nerve. At the 14th week, 17th week and 20th week after operation, the percentages of S-100 protein area were more obviously increased in 5 Hz electro-acupuncture group and 100 Hz electro-acupuncture group than in model group, with significant differences (P〈0.05). Especially, the better effect was obtained in 5 Hz electro-acupuncture group. Judging from the dynamic treatment, it is very vital to be treated early. Conclusion: Electro-acupuncture is an effective method for the treatment of peripheral nerve injury, and its therapeutic effect is related to the improvement of SC proliferation.
