Objective:To find an applicable condition of the single-plasma-sample method (SPSM) to measure the glomerular filtration(GFR) with 99m Tc-Diethylene Triamine Pentaacetic Acid ( 99m Tc- DTPA) , and predict the value of 99m Tc-DTPA plasma clearance by dual plasma sample method (DPSM ) from that by SPSM.Methods:Three hundred and thirty five patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) were selected (192 males and 143 females). The average age was 51.91?14.76 years. The GFR was determined simultaneously by 2 methods: (1) SPSM (sGFR); (2) DPSM (tGFR), using DPSM as reference standard, sGFR calculated from the different SPSM was compared with tGFR. An equation was developed to predict tGFR from sGFR. GFR estimated by abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation (aGFR) was evaluated as the criterion in selection of DPSM and SPSM. The condition that DPSM could be substituted by SPSM in GFR measurement was given. Results: When tGFR ≥ 30 mL/ (min?1.73 m2), all of the sGFR were significantly correlated with tGFR. Among them, Watson modified Christensen and Groth’s equation at sample time=240 min tended to be the most accurate (r=0.977, RMSE=10.91), and tGFR could be predicted from sGFR using the equation: Predicted tGFR mL/(min?1.73 m2)=7.755 4+0.789 3?sGFR+0.002 4 ?sGFR2 (n=297, r2= 0.959 1 , P

AIM: To investigate the signal transduction mechanism of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) in down-regulating the expression of ATP binding cassette A1 (ABCA1) and ATP binding cassette G1 (ABCG1),the key molecules in cholesterol efflux and atherogenesis,from THP-1-derived macrophages. METHODS: Cpn was propagated in Hep-2 cells. THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) for 48 h,and were randomly allocated into 4 groups to incubate continually: control group,50 mg/L low density lipoprotein (LDL); Cpn infection group,Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; Cpn and SP600125 (a special JNK inhibiter) group,THP-1 macrophages were previously treated with different concentrations (1-20 μmol/L) of SP600125 for 1 h,and then infected with Cpn (1×10~6 IFU) and 50 mg/L LDL; SP600125 group,SP600125(20 μmol/L)and 50 mg/L LDL. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) from each group were detected then. The cholesterol efflux was detected by enzyme-fluorescence. The expressions of ABCA1/ABCG1 and PPARγ mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. RESULTS: Cpn not only down-regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 expression,but also down-regulated the expression of PPARγ,which regulated the ABCA1/ABCG1 genes transcriptions. However,the mentioned effects of Cpn infection were restrained by the special JNK inhibitor SP600125 in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: Chlamydia pneumoniae may down-regulate ABCA1/ABCG1 expression from THP-1-derived macrophages via JNK-PPARγ signal transduction pathway.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Chlamydia pneumoniae(Cpn) on SR-A1 and CD36 expression in THP-1-derived macrophages and role of c-Jun NH_2-terminal signal transduction pathway in the process.Methods:Cpn was propagated in Hep-2 cells.THP-1 monocytes were induced into macrophages by 160 nmol/L phorbol myristate acetate(PMA)for 48h,and were randomly allocated into four groups to be incubated continually: control group;Cpn infection group;Cpn and SP600125(a JNK inhibiter)group and SP600125 group.Lipid droplets in cytoplasm were observed by oil red O staining.The contents of intracellular cholesterol ester were detected by enzyme-fluorescence.The expression of SR-A1 and CD36mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. Results:THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn resulted in large accumulation of lipid droplets and foam cell formation when co-cultured with LDL.Meanwhile,the expression of SR-A1 mRNA and protein were up-regulated by Cpn infection (P<0.05).However,the expressions of CD36 mRNA and protein in THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn were unchanged.Moreover,the up-regulation of SR-A1 and foam cell formation induced by Cpn could be restrained by the JNK inhibiter SP600125 in a dose-dependent manner,and SP600125 had little impact on the expression of CD36 in THP-1-derived macrophages infected with Cpn.Conclusion:The up-regulation of SR-A1 but not CD36 expression is involved in mechanisms of Cpn inducing foam cell formation.And Chlamydia pneumoniae up-regulates the expression of SR-A1 via the JNK signal transduction pathway.This may be a novel mechanism for the foam cell formation induced by Cpn.

Objective To analyze the correlation of the mutations of exon 4 of pulmonary surfactant protein (SP)-B and SP-C with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in Mongolian premature infants. Methods Fifty cases of hospitalized genetically unrelated Mongolian premature infants with RDS ( 31 males, 19 females) were recruited as RDS group. In the same period, 50 cases ( 27 males, 23 females) of non RDS genetically unrelated premature infants of same ethnicity were choose as the control group. PCR and gene detection were used to detect exon 4 of SP-B and SP-C genes. The differences of the genovariation and genotype frequency of 1580 locus in exon 4 in SP-B, and of c. 571 C?>?A (T 138 N) locus in exon 4 in SP-C were compared between two groups. Results The genovariation of 1580 locus in exon 4 in SP-B was detected in 14 cases (with aberration rate of 28%) in RDS group and in 11 cases (with aberration rate of 22%) in control group, and the difference is not signiifcant between two groups (χ2=0 . 480 , P?>?0 . 05 ). The genotype frequency of CC, TT and CT gene in 1580 locus were 16%, 72%, and 12%respectively in RDS group;and 10%, 78%, and 12%respectively in control group. Meanwhile, the C and T gene frequency was 22% and 78% respectively in RDS group, and 16% and 84% in control group. There was no significant difference in genotype frequency between two groups (χ2=1 . 170 , P?>?0 . 05 ). The genovariation of c. 571 C?>?A (T 138 N) locus in exon 4 in SP-C was detected in 41 cases (with aberration rate of 82%) in RDS group and in 6 cases (with aberration rate of 12%) in control group, and the difference is signiifcant between the two groups (χ2=49 . 177 , P??A (T 138 N) locus were 18%, 50%, and 32%respectively in RDS group;and 88%, 8%, and 4%in control group. Meanwhile, the C and A gene frequency was 34%and 66%respectively in RDS group, and 90%and 10%in control group. There was a signiifcant difference in A gene frequency between the two groups (χ2=66 . 553 , P??A (T 138 N) locus in exon 4 in SP-C gene were in a higher risk of RDS. The mutation of 1580 locus in exon 4 in SP-B had no correlation with Mongolian premature RDS.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnosis and surgical management of non-palpable breast cancer (NPBC). MethodsDiagnosis, preoperative localization and surgical management of 26 cases of NPBC were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsAll the 26 lesions were found by ultrasound or mammography.Local-extensive excision was performed under preoperative ultrasound-guided or radio-guided wire localization.Of the 26 lesions, 14 were ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), 9 were DCIS with micro-invasion and 3 were invasive ductal carcinoma.ConclusionsCombination of ultrasound and mammography improves the discovery rate of NPBC.Local-extensive excision under preoperative ultrasound-guided or radio-guided wire localization of NPBC shortens the duration of surgical procedure, avoids excessive resection of breast tissues and maintains the apperance of the breast.

The inhibitory effects of Endostar in combination with radiotherapy in BALB/c nude mice model of human CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the mechanism were investigated. In nude mice model of CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the inhibitory rate and the sensitizing enhancement ratio (E/O) were calculated according to the tumor volumes in different groups. The expression of microvascular density (MVD) in tumor tissues was examined by using immunohistochemistry staining. The transcription of VEGF gene was detected by using RT-PCR. The inhibitory rate in Endostar+ radiotherapy group was higher than in other groups. In Endostar+radiotherapy group, the tumor volume was significantly decreased and the E/O ratio was 2.335, suggesting that Endostar could be a radiosensitizer. The expression of MVD of tumor tissues in Endostar+radiotherapy group was reduced significantly. The expression of the MVD in treatment groups was significantly different from that in control group (P<0.05). Compared to other groups, VEGF mRNA expression in Endostar+radiotherapy group was decreased remarkably. Endostar in combination with radiotherapy significantly inhibited the growth of CNE2 tumor. The combination therapy decreased the expression of VEGF, and inhibited tumor angiogenesis and proliferation. When combined with radiotherapy, Endostar acted as a radiosensitizer.

Objective To summarize the causes,related factors and outcome of extremely premature infants and extremely low birth weight infants.Methods One hundred and three cases of extremely premature infants and extremely low birth weight infants were admired to First Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University between January 2009 and December 2015.The study was performed to analyze the clinical data of the 103 cases,included history of pregnancy,birth situation,treatment and prognosis.Results In these 103 cases,67 infants survived,36 infants died.The survival rate was 65.0％ (67/103).The extremely premature infants and extremely low birth weight infants were mainly associated with pregnancy-induced hypertension,infection,premature rupture of membranes.Factors that could affect the outcome of these cases included gestational age,sex,birth weight,pulmonary hemorrhage,bronchopulmonary dysplasia and necrotizing enterocolitis(P ＜0.05).The survival infants with long-term hospitalization often complicated with anemia.The top four causes of the death mostly were pulmonary hemorrhage,pneumonia,neonatal respiratory distress syndrome,and necrotizing enterocolitis.Conclusion In order to reduce the incidence of extremely premature infants and extremely low birth weight infants,improve the survival rate and infants quality of life,we should monitor the high-risk pregnant women closely during pregnancy period,prevent and treat all kinds of complications and prevent the occurrence of nosocomial infection.
