目的探讨NOTCH3基因第5外显子C260S位点突变导致的伴有皮层下梗死和白质脑病的常染色体显性遗传性脑动脉病(cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy,CADASIL)家系的临床和影像学...目的探讨NOTCH3基因第5外显子C260S位点突变导致的伴有皮层下梗死和白质脑病的常染色体显性遗传性脑动脉病(cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy,CADASIL)家系的临床和影像学特征。方法选取2021年12月首都医科大学附属北京同仁医院来自同一家庭的CADASIL患者,对所有患者进行NOTCH3基因测序,回顾性分析患者的临床表现和头颅影像学特征。复习既往文献报道的导致同一位置氨基酸改变的其他突变类型的临床及影像学特征。结果4名家庭成员中,包括先证者(46岁,女)及其两个姐姐(分别为48岁和50岁)和女儿(18岁)。先证者及其父亲、两个姐姐都有偏头痛病史,其中大姐有记忆力减退;先证者患有脑梗死及伴有视觉先兆的偏头痛;先证者女儿体健;先证者父亲因脑梗死去世。4名家庭成员均存在C260S位点的NOTCH3基因突变。既往文献无此位点突变的报道,先证者头颅MRI示右侧脑桥亚急性梗死,颞叶、脑室周围及脑干异常高信号改变,其大姐脑桥可见腔隙性梗死灶。结论NOTCH3基因第5外显子c.778T>A(p.C260S)的罕见突变导致的CADASIL发病时间早,早期会出现认知障碍。合并偏头痛的脑干梗死患者,需警惕CADASIL的可能。展开更多
光催化灭活是公认的控制病原微生物最具前景手段之一。本文以尿素和硫代巴比妥酸为起始原料,通过热聚合反应制备S掺杂g-C_(3)N_(4)(SCN),随后采用光还原法将Ag纳米粒负载于SCN表面获得新颖的可见光响应型Ag/SCN抗菌材料。对所制备纳米...光催化灭活是公认的控制病原微生物最具前景手段之一。本文以尿素和硫代巴比妥酸为起始原料,通过热聚合反应制备S掺杂g-C_(3)N_(4)(SCN),随后采用光还原法将Ag纳米粒负载于SCN表面获得新颖的可见光响应型Ag/SCN抗菌材料。对所制备纳米材料进行XRD、SEM、TEM、XPS及UV-Vis DRS表征,并深入探讨其在可见光下灭活大肠杆菌(E.coli)的性能和机制。结果表明,Ag纳米粒均匀且牢固地负载在SCN表面,纳米材料表现出显著增强的可见光响应能力。当负载量为6%时,Ag/SCN-6呈现出最佳的光催化灭菌活性,60 min内能够将6.2 lg CFU·mL^(-1)的E.coli全部灭活。自由基捕获实验结果表明,超氧自由基(·O-2)是灭活过程中最主要活性物种,它协同光生空穴(h+)和羟基自由基(·OH)主导了光催化抗菌的进程。展开更多
