    2003, 0(1): 1-3. 
    Abstract ( 1546 )  
    Objective To evaluate the changes of GDNF after severe brain injury. Methods Changes GDNF in cortex, thalamus and pontine was observed by using immunohistochemistry and image analysis technique. Results The lever of GDNF was increasing at Id, reaching peak at 3d, not obviously decreasing at 5d and still higher than normal at 7d after severe brain injury. Conclusion As an objective indication, the time sequence regularity of GDNF after brain injury may be applied in brain injury time estimation.

    TAO LU-YANG;CHEN XI-PING;DING MEI;ET AL. (CHINA MEDICAL UNIVERSITY;SCHOOL OF FORENSIC MEDICINE;SHENYANG;P.R.CHINA 000)
    2003, 0(1): 4-7+69. 
    Abstract ( 1998 )  
    Objective To investigate the expression of caspase-1 in different posttraumatic intervals and severity of brain injury. Methods The study examined brain tissue samples of slight (n=24), severe (n=24) brain injury and control (n=6) of rat, using immunohistochemical staining, western-blot and RT-PCR method. Results Up-regulating of caspase-1 expression was found in tissue from traumatic brain injury compared with controls in early 1 hour after TBI, and lasted for 2 weeks. Caspase-1 cleaved after brain injury. Conclusion These findings are the first time to demonstrate the study of different intense brain injury. The increasing of caspase-1 expression indicates that the TBI exists. The threshold area of caspase-1 positive cells is different in different severity of brain injury.

    A study on the expression of C-FOS protein after experimental rat brain concussion
    WANG FENG;LI YONG-HONG;HU YONG-LIANG (DEPARTMENT OF FORENSIC MEDICINE;WANNAN MEDICAL COLLEGE;WUHU 00)
    2003, 0(1): 8-9. 
    Abstract ( 2027 )  
    Objective To study the relationship between expression of C-FOS protein and brain concussion and find a sensitive marker of diagnosis of the brain concussion. Methods Fifty-five rats were randomly divided into brain concussion groups and control group. The expression of C-FOS protein was microscopically observed by immunohistochemical method. Results There were negative expression of C-FOS protein in control group. In brain concussion group, however, positive expression of C-FOS protein in some neurons was seen at 15min after brain concussion, and reach to the peak at 6h after brain concussion, then decreased gradually. Conclusion These findings suggest that detection of C-FOS protein could be an index of diagnosis of brain concussion and a sensitive marker of timing of injury after brain concussion.

    WANG HUI-JUN;DING YUN-CHUAN (DEPARTMENT OF PATHOLOGY;THE FIRST MILITARY MEDICAL UNIVERSITY;GUANGZHOU 0)
    2003, 0(1): 10-12. 
    Abstract ( 2046 )  
    Objective In order to explore the relationship between the expression change of cytokines and the wound age during the healing process of rats skin wound. Methods A assay of ELISA were performed on intravital skin wounds(after incision 0.5-168 h) to detect the dynamics expression level of IL-2, TNF-a. Results The level of IL-2 and TNF-a increased at 0.5 h after wounding, then got to a peak at 3 h and 1 h after injure respectively. Rebound of TNF and IL-2 levels were shown at 48 h after wounding, and both cytokine levels were inclined to elevating between 72h and 168h after wounding. Conclusion The cytokine level changes suggest they have a time-related expression during wounds healing process.

    LI MET;HUANG PEI-JUN;LIU MIN;ET AL. (FORENSIC PATHOLOGY DEPARTMENT;SCHOOL OF LEGAL MEDICINE;SICHUAN UNIVERSITY;CHENGDU 00)
    2003, 0(1): 13-15+6. 
    Abstract ( 1906 )  
    Objective To evaluate changes of VEGF in skin after blunt injury. Methods The rats of injury groups were subjected to skin blunt injury by free-falling iron hammer. The samples taken at 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h,1d, 3d, 5d, 7d, 9d after injury were studied by immunohistochemistry and MIAS image analysis system. Results In the skin of normal control group the expression level of VEGF was low. The increase of VEGF could be observed at 1 day after injury, reached peak at 7 days and declined at 9 days. Conclusion Blunt injury in the skin could induce the expression of the VEGF. Moreover, the change pattern of VEGF level was quite regular with time and could be used to estimate the time after skin injury.

    Abstract ( 1872 )  
    Objective To explore the technique that distinguish pseudo-anacousia. Methods 60 cases were divided into three groups ( normal group, deafness sensorineura group and pretending hearing loss group). They all had been tested by distortion products otoacoustic emissions technique . Results (1) The DPOAE incidence of normal group is 94.00%. the DPOAE incidence of deafness sensorineura group is 22.00%.There were significant differences at statistics in DPOAE incidence (P<0.01). those proved that patients (deafness sensorineura group ) were in hearing problem . (2) The DPOAE incidence of pretending hearing loss group is 93.00%,there were no significant differences at statistics in DPOAE incidence between normal group and pretending hearing loss group (P>0.01), furthermore when behavior threshold is over 50 dBHL , DPOAE incidence is no score . Conclusion This study shows the technique can distinguish pretending hearing loss . The application of DPOAE can be used as a new tool in cases assessment of clinic forensic medicine.

    TANG SHUANG-BO;GUO JING-YUAN;LI ZHAO-HUI;ET AL. (FACULITY OF FORENSIC MEDICINE;SUN YAT-SEN UNIVERSITY;GUANGZHOU 00)
    2003, 0(1): 27-29. 
    Abstract ( 1879 )  
    Objective To establish more sensitive methods for detection of DYS385 in routine forensic casework. Methods The primers recommended by Genome Database (GDB) and Schneider were used to amplify DYS385 respectively. Then, a semi-nested PCR of DYS385 was designed by using the two different primers as outer and inner primer. A series of experiments were carried out to achieve good result by adjusting the ratio of outer/inner primer and optimizing the PCR condition. Results It showed that an overall 112bp shorter DYS385 fragments and better electrophoretic separation were obtained by using primer2B. By using the semi-nested PCR approach, the shorter specific DYS385 fragments could be amplified and detectable DNA amounted to 50pg. Conclusion This method is 20 fold more sensitive than the ordinary method.

    Abstract ( 1923 )  
    The evidence and the feature of apoptosis following tyrauma brain injury(TBI) and the possible mechanisms underlying apoptosis were reviewed. Recently research showed that apoptosis play an important role in TBI, the occurring time and area of apoptosis were found significant differences compared with that of necrosis. The neural cell apoptosis can undergo following many pathways after TBI. In our review, the foreground of apoptosis after TBI research in forensic pathology were also discussed.

    The sudden cardiac death in negative autopsy
    YU XIAO-JUN;LI CHE;XU JIN-JIE (DEPARTMENT OF FORENSIC MEDICINE;MEDICAL COLLEGE OF SHANTOU UNIVERSITY;SHANTOU 0)
    2003, 0(1): 62-66. 
    Abstract ( 1915 )  
    The advancement of studies about the molecular biology and electronic physiology on sudden cardiac death was summarized in this article, including particularly cardiac concussion (commotio cordis), congenital long QT syndrome, and Brugada syndrome which probably resulting in fatal arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. These corpses of fatal functional disorders often show the results of negative autopsy without obvious organic pathological changes. So when come across negative autopsy the medical examiner and the pathologist should be careful to investigate the inductive cause of sudden death, the history of disease, and the family history, then to rule out the possibility of the above disorders.
