Objective To exPlore the theraPeutic effect of cycloVirobuxine_D ( CVB_D) on heart failure by obserVing the influences of CVB_D on cardiac function,myocardial morPhology and structure in rats with heart failure. Methods The rat model of heart failure was established by ligating left anterior descending coronary artery,and then the rats were randomly diVided into 5 grouPs,Plus the sham grouP. EchocardiograPhy was used to assess cardiac function,including EF,LVSF,SV,HR,CO and so on. Myocardial tissue section was obtained. Change in the myocardial tissue was obserVed by HE staining. Myocardial ultra_structure was obserVed by using transmission electron microscoPe. Results As comPared with the model grouP,EF and LVSF were significantly increased in medium and high dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01),SV was increased in low and medium dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05),CO was increased in low,medium and high dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05),LVIDs was decreased and LVPWs was increased in high dose CVB_D grouP (P<0. 05). Under light microscoPe,changes of myocardial structures were obserVed in different CVB_D dose grouPs: myocardial fiber gradually became tidy, striPes became clear, and contour became clear. The changes of myocardial ultra_structure were obserVed under transmission electron microscoPe: the myocardial fiber breakage was reduced and the number of mitochondria was increased,swelling degeneration was alleViated. Conclusion CVB_D significantly imProVed cardiac contraction and blood PumPing function of rats with heart failure, exerted mitigatiVe effect on damage of cardiac muscle fiber and mitochondria. It suggests that CVB_D may be effectiVe in the treatment of heart failure.

Objectives To investigate the correlation between dietary fatty acids intake of pregnant women and neonatal anthropometry at birth. Methods Women in early pregnancy were recruited with appropriate value of weight gain in pregnancy. Instant photography was used to assess the dietary situation in both the second trimester and the third trimester to calculate the intakes of food, energy, macronutrients, and fatty acids. The body weight, height and BMI at birth were evaluated with Z scores. The correlation between dietary fatty acids of pregnant women and neonatal anthropometry at birth were analyzed. Results There were 516 pregnant women recruited in this study. The average intakes of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and the proportion of total fatty acids in the two trimesters were 15 . 09 g/d, 23 . 93% and 17 . 18 g/d, 24 . 86%. In the second trimester the intakes of n-6 and n-3 PUFA were 14 . 23 g/d and 3 . 45 g/d, and in the third trimester, n-6 and n-3 PUFA were 16 . 08 g/d and 3 . 81 g/d, the average intakes in the third trimester were signiifcantly higher than those in the second trimester (P??0 . 05 ). The intake of DHA ( 64 . 43 mg/d) in the second trimester was lower than that in the third trimester 75 . 12 mg/d, (P??0 . 05 ).The dietary intakes of n-3 PUFA, n-6 PUFA and n-6/n-3 ratio in the second trimester were positively correlated with neonatal BMI r=0 . 142~0 . 189 , P??0 . 05 ). Conclusions The dietary ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFA in the second trimester was positively correlated with neonatal BMI, suggesting that moderately increasing the intake of n-3 PUFA may play a positive role in reducing childhood obesity.

Objective To observe hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation in 12 patients with rheumatic disease undergoing immunosuppressive therapy and to evaluate whether preemptive antiviral therapy is necessary for patients receiving disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).Methods From January 2008 to March 2012,a total of 12 HBV-infected patients with rheumatic diseases were consecutively enrolled into this long-term follow-up study.Liver function and serum levels of HBV DNA were tested during the follow-up.Results The medium duration of follow-up was 41 months (range 16-48).Four patients received steroid treatment,and among them two patients without pre-emptive antiviral therapy developed HBV reactivation.After administr-ation of LAM or ETV,HBV replication was controlled in both patients.Five patients were treated with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs and the other three patients received tumor necrosis factor-alpha-blocking agents.None of these patients received pre-emptive antiviral therapy.HBV reactivation did not occur in any of them.Conclusion HBV reactivation does occur in HBV-infected patients with rheumatoid diseases after immunosuppressive therapy.Pre-emptive antiviral therapy should be administered in patients who are receiving steroid therapy for rheumatic diseases.In contrast,DMARDs and TNFBA are relatively safe for HBV-infected patients with rheumatic diseases.Close monitoring of HBV DNA and ALT levels is necessary to the mana-gement of HBV reactivation.

Objective To study the expression of c -Met protein in gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) and to evaluate its clinicopathological significance.Methods The immunohistochemical technique,EnVision method was used to evaluate the expression of c -Met in 105 cases of GISTs.Results c -Met protein positive rate in GISTs was 9.52%(10 /105),its expression rate was significantly higher in GISTs with >10 /50HPF mitotic activity(P <0.05).c -Met protein expression rate was higher in GISTs which >5cm,moderate or high -risk,or mass located outside the stomach,but the difference was not statistically significant(P >0.05 ).Conclusion c -Met protein expression may related with risk of GISTs.We think that c -Met is worthy of further study for its potential usage as a evaluation indicators of GISTs clinicobiological behavior.

National Teaching Contests of young teachers from medical colleges in China has been held for several years. Experiences obtained from participating and observing the contest have shown that the teaching ability and quality of young teachers have been dramatically improved over these years. But there are a few problems worthy of attention. First, up-to-date progress in scientific research should be intro-duced to the class in proper way. Applying the scientific material mechanically or overgeneralizing individual findings should be avoided in this process. Secondly, the teachers should strengthen the cultivation of criti-cal thinking and dialectical way of thinking, to enable students to use critical thinking, the integrated point of view to analyze and solve the problem. Thirdly, teaching should also focus on humanistic education, and through the infiltration of human content in the classroom, imperceptibly affect students. Finally, young teachers can give full play to their advantages of rapid learning and to use internet as a platform for the reform of teaching methods to promote the interaction between teachers and students, enriching their class-room.

To investigate the effect of monoamine oxidase inhibitor tranylcypromine (TCP) on the differentiation of human U251 glioma cells, we treated U251 cells with TCP and/or 100 nmol/L histone deacetylase inhibitor trychostatin A (TSA). The differentiation of U251 cells was observed with inverted microscopy. The cell proliferation and cell cycle distribution were determined by MTT assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Apoptosis was observed by Hoechst 33258 staining. The levels of differentiation-related genes were assessed by real-time PCR and Western blotting. TCP-induced differentiation was characterized by typical morphological changes, inhibition of cellular proliferation, accumulation of cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, decreased expression of the pluripotency transcription factors Oct4 and Sox2, and increased expression of glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP). The combination of TCP and TSA treatment also triggered an over-expression of GFAP. These findings suggest that TCP may induce differentiation of U251 glioma cells, and the differentiation process may be promoted by histone deacetylase inhibitor TSA.
