Aim To investigate the contribution of cardiac L-and L/T-type Ca 2+ channels blockers on matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) protein expression and fibronectin (FN) degradation following myocardial infarction(MI). Methods Rat MI model was established by permanent ligation of left coronary artery. Infarcted rats were orally treated with placebo, amlodipine (L-channel blocker, 4 mg?kg -1?d -1) or mibefradil (L/T-Channel blocker, 10 mg?kg -1?d -1) for 7 days before induction of myocardial infarction. Protein levels of MMP-2,3,9 and FN distribution were assayed by immunoflorescence at 1, 3, 7 days post coronary occlusion in left ventricular free wall (LVFW) and myocardium interventricular septum (IS). Results Pathological changes of myocardial tissues in IS and LVFW showed typical myocardial remodeling. The hypertrophy was dominant in IS, but in LVFW the characteristics including disordered alignament, hypertrophy of the myocytes, the discontinuity, dissolving of carediomyofibrills, and the hyperplasia of interstitial tissue were found 7 days after MI. The protein levels of MMP-2,3,9 increased in IS 1,3,7 days post MI gradually, whereas the protein levels of FN decreased gradually, the protein levels of MMP-2,3,9 increased significantly in LVFW 7 days post MI, and the protein levels of FN decreased significantly compared to control group, respectively(P

Some biological properties of eperythrozoon, such as the influence of low temperature on their viability, their infectivity in different kinds of animals and their changes in amount of organisms in vivo were investigated in the present study. The experimental results showed that the viability of eperythrozoon could be maintained at -20 ℃ for 835 days and at 4 ℃ for 205 days. Small rats could be infected by Eperythrozoon suis, while chickens were not infected. The basic regulation on the changes in amount of organisms in animals was expressed by the fact that the percentages of erythrocytes being infected increased rapidly up to 96-98% 2-4 hours after infection, then it dropped down and followed by dropping and re-rising, attaining its climax up to 8 hours after infection. Finally, it reflected a fluctuating cycle of 14-16 hours. This results showed that eperythrozoons can maintain their viability at -20℃ for a long time and they possess relative species specificity to host with a reproduction cycle of 14-16 hours in animal body.

Objective To understand the epidemic situation of Hepatitis B of the children and the situation of Hepatitis B vaccine injection in Maanshan city so as to provide the basis for the development of Hepatitis B vaccination strategy or adjustment in all of the people. Methods Two-stage sampling method was designed to survey 978 children under the age of 15 in 8 villages, with 3~5 ml of venous blood brawn and HBVM detected by ELISA. Results HBsAg positive rate of the children under the age of 15 was 10.12% in 1991 and, compared with the present rate at 0.92%, there was a significant difference. The protection rate of Hepatitis B vaccination was 90.91%. HBsAb positive rate of the children under the age of 15 was 40.49%, and the distribution was balanced among regional, urban and rural areas. With the in crease in age, the trend of Hepatitis B antibody levels declined, but the 1~5 age group had lower peak. The survey rate of Hepatitis B vaccine injection of the children under the age of 15 was 91.82%, and the report rate was 87.89%. The regional difference for them was significant. With the in crease in age, the rate of Hepatitis B vaccine injection declined for the survey and the report in all of the children under the age of 15. Conclusions The effect of Hepatitis B Control for 16 years is very significant in the city. It is necessary to administer charge-free Hepatitis B vaccination for the newborns and to strengthen the Hepatitis B vaccination in flowing children.

Objective To clarify the role of transmembrane protein 66(TMEM66) in intima proliferation of carotid artery induced by balloon injury in rats.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=10), including control group, the left carotid artery balloon injury group and injury group added with lentiviruses, respectively.Accordingly, the intima proliferation of carotid artery were detected by H/E staining;the expressions of TMEM66 in carotid artery injuried by balloon were determined by Western blot,q-PCR and immunohistochemistry, and the migration and proliferation of VSMCs were measured by scratch test and CCK8 respectively.Results Compared with control group, the expression of TMEM66 in carotid artery was obviously decreased after balloon injury (P<0.05).Most importantly, the intima proliferation of carotid artery was significantly reversed by overexpression of TMEM66 via specific lentiviruses (P<0.05).Conclusions TMEM66 is able to attenuate the intima proliferation of carotid artery after balloon injury.It could be that upregulation of TMEM66 can alleviate the migration and proliferation of VSMCs by PDGF.

Objective The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors δ(PPAR δ)activation with dietary GW610742X on the expression of tenascin-C in the infarcted and remodeling myocardium.Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were divided into four groups,including control group,sham group,myocardial infarction(MI) group,and MI+GW610742X(GW)group.The left coronary artery was ligated to establish the MI model.PPAR δ activator GW610742X(100mg/kg/d)was administrated into the rats of GW group.At 3 months after procedure,the expression and distribution of tenascin-C in left ventricular free wall from each group were examined by Western blotting and immunofluorescence,respectively.Results After 3 months following procedure,there were obvious necrosis and fibrosis in left ventricular free wall from MI group.The expression of tenascin-C in MI and GW group was significantly higher than those in control and sham group(P 〈 0.01).Moreover,tenascin-C expression in GW group was remarkably decreased compared to MI group(P 〈 0.05).Additionally,tenascin-C expression in sham group was similar to that in control group(P 〉 0.05).Conclusion The tenascin-C is upregulated in infarcted myocardium during the remodeling process,which can be significantly attenuated by PPAR δ activation.

Objective:To explore the relation of cognitive function correlates to P50 sensory gating in patients with schizophrenia.Methods:Totally 106 patients with drug-na¨ive first-episode schizophrenia and 86 healthy con-trol subjects matched for age,sex and education were recruited.All patients met the Diagnostic and Statistical Man-ual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition (DSM-IV)criteria for schizophrenia.Their cognitive function were assessed with the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB).The P50 auditory gating potential were recorded in all subjects using conditioning-testing stimulus paradigm and stimulus train paradigm.The P50 components were meas-ured in S1 S2 latency,S1 S2 amplitude and P50 suppression ratios.Results:Compared with the controls subjects, the patients with schizophrenia had significantly longer S1[60.8 ±7.8)ms vs.(56.3 ±7.0)ms,P <0.05]S2 la-tency [(59.1 ±10.2)ms vs.(55.7 ±10.7)ms,P <0.05],lower S1 amplitude [(2.8 ±1.8)μV vs.(3.5 ±1.6)μV,P <0.05],less amplitude difference (S1-S2)[(1.5 ±1.8)μV vs.(2.2 ±1.4)μV,P <0.05]and higher P50 suppression ratios (S2 /S1 )[(59.7 ±65.6)vs.(37.6 ±30.0),P <0.05].Schizophrenia patients had lower score than control subjects in all cognitive domains of MCCB (Ps <0.05).No differences in neurocognitive performance were found between subjects in the normal P50 ratio and the abnormal in healthy controls or patients with schizo-phrenia (Ps >0.05).No significant correlation was found between P50 gating measures (P50 ratio and P50 ampli-tude difference)and neuropsychological measures in MCCB scores (Ps >0.05).Conclusion:There may be no as-sociation between P50 deficits and cognitive measures in patients with drug-na¨ive first-episode schizophrenia.
