Chinese Journal of Geriatric Heart Brain and Vessel Diseases 2017;19(9):971-973
Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of syncope by analyzing its etiology.Methods Ninety-six syncope patients admitted to our hospital from 2014-01-01 to 2016-12-21were included in this study.The etiology of syncope was analyzed.Results Of the 96 syncope patients included in this study,50 (52.1 %) were diagnosed with nerve-mediated reflex syncope,31(32.3%) with orthostatic hypotensive syncope,10 (10.4%) with cardiogenic syncope due to arrhythmia,coronary atherosclerotic cardiopathy or pulmonary embolism,5 (5.2%) with other diseases.Conclusion Nerve-mediated reflex,orthostatic hypotension and cardiogenic factors are the causes of syncope.Attention should thus be paid to syncope caused by nervous system diseases.Clarification of the risk factors for syncope helps to reduce its potential risk.

BACKGROUND: Biological function of leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin like-receptor 1 (LAIR 1) has clearly researched in China and abroad, but the in vivo biological function of LAIR is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To establish LAIR-2 (CD306) eukaryotic expression vectors and to purify and identify the fusion protein. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A single sample observation experiment was performed at the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between June 2007 and June 2008.MATERIALS: plg/3c vector was offered by Oxford University, pcDNA3.1 vector was provided by Meyaard doctor. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines were preserved by the Department of Immunology, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.METHODS: Two eukaryotic expression vectors plg/3c-LAIR-2 and pcDNA3.1-LAIR-2 were constructed and were transfected into CHO cells. The binding activities of LAIR-2 fusion protein to LAIR-2 mAbs were identified by Western blot, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry assay.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The construction of stably transfected cell lines, and the purification and identification of fusion protein. The activity of LAIR 2 protein combined to corresponding monoclonal antibody.RESULTS: Eukaryotic expression vectors were constructed and trasnsfected into CHO cells successfully. Two cells lines CHO/LAIR-2-Fc and CHO/LAIR-2 that steadily expressed LAIR-2-Fc fusion protein and LAIR-2 protein were established. Western blot assay showed that LAIR-2 protein could bind specially to LAIR-2 mAb 1A7, 3H12 and 4A9. Immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry assay demonstrated that 3H12 and 4A9 could bind to LAIR-2 expressed in the transfected CHO cells. CONCLUSION: Two ceils lines CHO/LAIR-2-Fc and CHO/LAIR-2 were successfully constructed, which can transfected to CHO cells. The eukaryotic expressed LAIR-2 protein has good binding activity to LAIR-2 mAbs.

BACKGROUND: Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a kind of polypeptide growth factor possessing multifunctional biological activities,can protect neurons and promote the growth of nerves. It has been corfirmed that bFGF has therapeutic effects on retina ischemia/reperfusion injury (RIRI).OBJECTIVE: To establish RIRI model and analyze the effects of bFGF on cellular apoptosis of retina and the expression of regulatory gene protein.DESIGN: Randomized grouping and validating trial.SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted at the Research Laboratory of Pathology, Department of Ophthalmology, Medical College of Qingdao University, from April 2002 to December 2003. Twenty-eight healthy Wistar rats were enrolled in this experiment. Four rats were randomly chosen for normal control group, the left eyes of the other 24 rats were set as normal saline control group, and the right eyes were set as bFGF group.METHODS: Normal saline control group and bFGF group adopted the rat RIRI models established by transiently elevating intraocular pressure. Normal saline of 12 μL was injected into the vitreous cavity of the left eyes of the rats in normal control group. 12 μL bFGF was injected into the vitreous cavity of the right eyes of the rats in bFGF group, 4 rats once. No administration was given in normal control group. The expression of apoptotic cells was detected and apoptosis indexes were calculated with the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method and immunohistochemical staining method at the 1st, 6th,12th, 24th,48th and 72nd hours after reperfusion and ischemia for 1 hour.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The detection results of apoptotic cells in situ of retina tissuesat different time points after reperfusion. ②The expression of Fas and caspases-2 in retina tissues at different time points after reperfusion.RESULTS ① Comparison of apoptosis indexes of retina tissues at different time points after ischemia reperfusion: There were no apoptotic cells in the retina tissues of the rats in normal control group. As compared with those in normal saline control group, apoptosis indexes in bFGF group were significantly decreased at ischemia 1 hour and reperfusion 1, 6, 12, 24, 48and 72 hours, especially at the 12th, 24th and 48th hours after reperfusion (t =5.362-5.595, P < 0.05). ② The change of Fas expression at different time points after ischemia reperfusion: There was hardly any Fas expression in normal control group. As compared with that in normal saline control group, Fas expression in bFGF group was significantlydecreased at ischemia 1 hour and reperfusion 1, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours, especially at the 6th, 12th and 24th hours after reperfusion (t=3.954-9.327, P < 0.05). ③The changes of caspase-2 expression at different time points after ischemia reperfusion: There was no caspase-2 expression in normal control group.Compared with that in normal saline control group, the number of caspase2 positive cells in bFGF group was significantly decreased at the 6th,12th,24th, 48th and 72nd hours after ischemia for 1 hour and reperfusion (t=4.125-15.641, P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: bFGF can significantly inhibit the expression of apoptosis gene Fas and caspase-2 in the ischemia and reperfusion of retina, thus reducing cellular apoptosis of ganglion cells and exerting therapeutic effects on the ischemia and reperfusion of retina.

Objective To obtain two-dimensional gel electrophoresis maps of the renal tissue proteins of normal and chronic intermittent hypoxia(CIH) rats for identifying the diferentially expressed proteins in the CIH rats.MethodsCIH rat models were established, and the proteins in the renal tissue underwent two-dimensional gel electrophoresis with immobiline pH gradientisoeleclricfocusingasthefirstdimensionandverticalSDS-PAGEasthesecond dimension.Analysis of 2-DE maps was used to determine differential expression of proteins between the two groups by ImageMaster 2D Platinum 5.0, and four protein spots expressed differently were picked up for further identification by MALDI-TOF-MS.Results Matched and compared with those of control group, 112 protein spots were determined with differently expressive levels in CIH group.By MALDI-TOF-MS, three protein spots of them were identified as ATP synthase delta subunit of mitochondrial precursor, catechol O-methyltransferase, apurinic/apyrimidinic endonudease.Conclusions There is obvious difference in expressive proteomes in renal tissue between normal and chronic intermittent hypoxia rats.The functions of those identified proteins are involved in cellular energy metabolism, apoptosis, signal transduction, anti-cell injury and hormone metabolism,so that proteomics can serve as a new approach in the study of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome to discover new therapeutic targets.

Objective:To prepare and evaluate Shenhuang vaginal thermosensitive in situ gels. Methods:Shenhuang vaginal ther-mosensitive in situ gels( SHV-TISG)were prepared with poloxamer 407 and poloxamer 188 as the materials. The viscosity change at different temperatures and the gelation temperature of SHV-TISG and SHV-TISG diluted by stimulant vaginal fluid were measured,the in vitro drug release of the preparation was evaluated by a membraneless diffusion method,and the safety of SHV-TISG was detected by vaginal irritation test. Results:The preparation showed the vaginal injectability and gelationability in vivo without vaginal irritation. Gel erosion was the principal mechanism of the drug release from the gels. Conclusion:The preparation of SHV-TISG is feasible in tech-nique,and the properties meet the requirements of vaginal topical use.
