Biological significance of expression of nitric oxide synthases in neurogenic bladder / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To explore the expression of nitric oxide synthases including neuronal nitric oxide synthases(nNOS), inducible nitric oxide synthases(iNOS), endothelial nitric oxide synthases (eNOS) in neurogenic bladder tissues, and analyze it's producing feature and significance. Methods There were 30 cases with neurogenic bladder(18 males, 12 females). The average age was 6.3±3.1 years. All patients appeared with myelodysplasia, urinary and fecal incontinence in different degree. Twenty-six cases were manifested with hyperreflexia bladders, and all patients were treated with surgical procedures. During operation, collected bladder tissue samples including tissues of apex vesicae and tissues of bladder neck, and all tissues were enveloped with mineral wax. All tissues were detected for nNOS, iNOS, and eNOS respectively in tissues of apex vesicae and tissues of bladder neck,and with normal bladder tissues as control group (bladder tissues of hypospadia, 10 cases), and according to clinical features, to explore the expression of NOS, and to analyze the relationship among them. Results In normal apex vesicae tissues, all cases stained with nNOS, and distributed among bundles of smooth muscles, and surface of smooth muscles and interstitial tissue, histochemica;score (HS) 2.8-4.0 and 1.2-2.7. There were no stained cells in bladder tissues of iNOS, and HS was very low, HS:0-0. 4 and 0-0.1 ;eNOS mainly distributed in interstitial tissues in rarefaction manners, and mainly in vascular endothelial cell (VEC), and smooth muscles had no stainings the most expression among them was nNOS, and mainly distributed in bladder neck tissues. In neurogenic bladder tissues, the main expression of NOS type was iNOS, and nNOS decreased significantly. eNOS mainly expressed in VEC among interstitial tissues, and had no staining in smooth muscle cells and collagenoblast and rarefaction of microvessel in bladder tissues, and microvessel density decreased significantly than normal bladder tissues. Microvessal density(MVD) in bladder tisssus (6. 8± 3.2/100per square) was less than that in normal tissues (16.7±6.3/100 per square). Conclusions In normal bladder tissues, nNOS mainly distributes in bladder neck and urethra, and nitric oxide mainly derives from nNOS. Much more matrix fibers, fewer nitrogenergic nerves, and less nNOS expression are seen in neurogenic bladder interstitial tissue. There are more iNOS expressions in bladder tissues,and NO is mainly derived from iNOS, and it may play an important role in pathological bladder tissues, especially in fibrosis of bladder wall. eNOS may be considered as angiopoietic labeling, and may evaluate the blood supply of bladder.

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of creatine phosphate sodium (CP, Neoton) at early stage of myocardium diastolic dysfunction. Methods: A total of 138 cases with myocardium diastolic dysfunction were divided into CP group (n=109) and routine treatment group (n=29). All the patients received routine treatment. The CP group received CP treatment based on routine treatment(CP 2g+5%glucose or 0.9% sodium chloride 100ml, iv. drip, for patients with mild diastolic dysfunction was 1time/d, patients with moderate diastolic dysfunction was 2 times/d), duration was 7~14 days. Color-coded Doppler echocardiography was used to detect transmitral peak early diastolic velocity (E-wave)，transmitral peak late diastolic velocity (A-wave)，peak early diastolic velocity of mitral annulus (Ea), and peak late diastolic velocity of mitral annulus(Aa), and the value of E/A ,Ea/Aa and E/Ea were calculated. Symptoms, signs and items from echocardiography were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results: After treatment, all symptoms and signs of patients in two groups significantly improved (P<0.05~0.01), and the marked effective rate in CP group was significantly higher than that of routine treatment group (96.2% vs. 57.1%, P<0.01). In CP group, the marked effective rate of E/A (81.65% vs. 10.34%), Ea/Aa (83.49% vs. 13.79%) and E/Ea (92.86% vs. 12.00%) were significantly higher than those in routine treatment group (P<0.01all). Conclusion: Creatine phosphate possesses marked effect for improve patient’s condition and diastolic dysfunction.

Immunohistochemical study of the synaptophysin in hirschsprung’s disease / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective:To study the neuromuscular junction of the colon in patients with Hirschsprung’s disease by immunohistochemical methods.Methods:The distribution of the neuromuscular junction in the muscle layers of bowel from 10 normal controls and 20 Hirschsprung’s disease patients was studied by synaptophysin immunohistochemistry.Antimouse synaptophysin serum was used for visualization of neuromuscular junction.Results:In the colon of the control cases,synaptophysin-immunoreactivity was widely distributed in the circular muscle layer.In the dilated colon with Hirschsprung’s disease cases,synaptophysin-immunoreactivity was moderately distributed within normal ganglion cell and scarcely in constricted segment within degenerated ganglion cell.In contrast to the high degree of synaptophysin-immunoreactivity in the controls and dilated colon,the synaptophysin-immunoreactivity in the constricted segment were nil in the circular muscle layer.Conclutions:Dense synaptophysin-immunoreactivity nerve endings were prominent in the circular muscle layer in the control and there was almost no synaptophysin imm-unoreactivity activity in the circular muscle layer in the constricted segment.The circular muscle layer from the constricted segment is confirmed to be a region with poor innervation including extrinsic and intrinsic nerve. Based on the Cannon’s Law of Denervation,the muscles that are supplied by these nerves shorten and tighten,resulting in muscle spasm and stiffness.The constricted segment which was denervated,is incapable of transmitting normal propulsive peristaltic waves and therefore acts as a physiologic obstruction.

The effect of Helicobacter pyiori infecton on the function of antral G cell in patients with active duodenal ulcer and functional dyspepsia / 中华消化杂志

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection on the func-tion of antral G cell in patients with active duodenal ulcer (DU) and functional dyspepsia (FD). Methods According to the status of H. pylori, 77 patients with active DU were randomly divided into three groups:group A, 51 cases whom H. pylori successfully eradicated (male 37 and female 14, with mean age of 35.2± 12.6); group B, 12 cases remained H. pylori positive after eradication therapy (male 9 and female 3, 34.5± 10.3) and group C, 14 H. pylori-negative patients (male 9 and female 5, 37.5 ± 11.8). Twenty-five H.pylori-eradicated FD patients served as controls (male 15 and female 10, 38.1 ± 12.6). Before and one month after therapy gastroendoscopy was performed and antral mucosa specimens were taken to detect the number of G cell (immunohistochemistry) and the expression of gastrin gene (RT-PCR with addition of α-32p-dATP).The plasma gastrin concentrations were also measurece by RIA. ResultsUlcer healed in all DU patients after the therapy. There was no significantly difference in G cell number among the four groups. Before therapy ex-pression levels of gastrin gene were significantly higher in all DU patients (group A 424.5 ± 151.6, group B 435.1 ± 113.8, group C 368.0 ± 184.3) than in FD patients (group D 215.8 ± 94.9 Bq, P ＜ 0.01 ). How-ever, there was not different between those in H. pylori-positive and H. pylori-negative DU patients ( P ＞0.05). Gastrin concentrations and its gene expression levels in DU patients tended to decrease after therapy but the difference was not significant no matter H. pylori was eradicated or not. However in FD patients (group D) they were decreased after H. pylori eradication (P < 0.05). Although gastrin levels in FD were similar to that in DU patients before the therapy, it was significantly decreased in FD than in DU after H. py-lori eradication (P<0.001). There was a positive relationships between plasma gastrin concentrations and its gene expression level in antral mucosa ( P < 0.05). ConclusionH. pylori infection does not affect antral G cell number but stimulates gastrin gene expression and gastrin release, which decreases after H. pylori eradica-tion. So, it can conclude that H. pylori infection and ulcer per se may affect the function of antral G cells.
