Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the genetic mutations of the VHL tumor-suppressor gene in a Chinese family with non-syndromic pheochromocytomas (PCCs) and individuals with sporadic PCCs (ASP).
- DNA samples were analyzed from 20 family members and 41 ASP patients, revealing three novel mutations in the VHL gene, all associated with specific types of VHL syndrome.
- The findings suggest that these mutations impair pVHL function, aiding in early diagnosis and treatment of Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome and advancing research on its underlying causes.
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of pentosan polysulfide sodium (PPS) on chronic non-bacterial prostatitis (CNP) in rats.
Methods: Based on Robinette's method, we established a CNP model in 80 male SD rats, aged 6 months and weighing 315 - 450 g, by castration followed by subcutaneous injection of estradiol at 0.25 mg / (kg x d) for 30 consecutive days.
