Objective To investigate the effect of ginsenoside-Rgl on paraurethral fascia fibroblastsmultiplication and the expression of proliferation cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) of stress urinary incontinence(SUI) women in vitro. Methods Specimens of human paraurethral fascia were obtained from 4 SUI womenduring tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) or tension-free vaginal tape-obturator (TVT-O) procedure.Fibroblasts were isolated and cultured by outgrowth technique. After reaching confluency fibroblasts weresubcultured every 5 days and cells after passage number 3 to 5 were used for assessment. The paraurethralfascia fibroblasts were treated with ginsenoside-Rgl at different concentrations (5, 10, 20 μmol/L) andfibroblnsts without Rgl were used as controL The multiplication conditions of paraurethral fascia fibroblastswere respectively detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTr) assay and the expression of PCNA byhistochemistry. Results ( 1 ) Compared with the control group, the growth rate of cells treated with differentconcentrations of Rgl after 72h [ (29±5 )%, (40±5 )%, (26±4)% respectively ] was significantly higher(P<0.01). (2)Compared with the control group, the stimulatory effect of Rgl on fibroblast growth wassignificant at 24 h (P<0.01), and peaked at 72 hi (29±5)% ,(40±5)%, (26±4)% respectively, P<0.01]. (3)Compared with the control group(28.77% ), there was a significant increase of PCNA-positivecells (P<0.01) after 48 h treatment with different concentrations of Rgl (49.24%, 83.48%, 54.50%respectively). Conclusion The results indicate that, at least in vitro, fibroblasts from paraurethral fasciataken from women suffering from SUI are able to proliferate after

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become an important alternative for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients to surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy. Monoclonal antibodies directed against immune checkpoint have shown better results in the application of first- or second-line treatment of NSCLC and for both squamous and non-squamous cell carcinoma patients, especially for those with positive PD-L1 tumor cells. Some comments will be made in present paper about the efficacy, biomarker, combined therapy and the resistant mechanism of immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Central nervous system ( CNS) injuries, such as cerebral ischemia, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and spinal cord injury (SCI), are often accompanied by complex pathological changes, and could lead to a variety of other neurological diseases.Neurons and glial cells are precisely regulated by many genes.MicroRNA ( miRNA ) are endogenous molecules discovered in recent years that regulate post transcriptional gene expression.They are highly expressed in the central nervous system and abnormal expressed under pathological conditions.They are involved in regulating variety of pathological processes after CNS injuries, and are CNS disease potential biomarkers.

Objective The protein kinase C ( PKC) is an essential signaling substance in the early protection of cells in pre-conditioning.This study was to investigate the role of PKC in the myocardial cells of the rat model of anoxia -reoxygenation (A-R) in-jury preconditioned with sufentanil . Methods Primary myocardial cells isolated and cultured for 5 days were allocated to a control , an A-R, a sufentanil preconditioning ( SF) , and a phorbol+sufentanil preconditioning ( PMA +SF) group.The A-R injury model was established with cultured myocardial cells from neonatal rats , which were preconditioned with sufentanil at the concentration of 0.000 3 μmol/L in the SF group or phorbol followed by sufentanil 10 minutes later in the PMA +SF group.Then the proliferation of the cells was detected , the optical density of the Cx 43 protein observed by immunofluorescence confocal technology , the apoptosis rate of the cells determined by flow cytometry, and the total Cx43 proteins calculated by Western blot. Results Cell proliferation was signifi-cantly increased in the A-R, SF, and PMA+SF groups as compared with the control (P<0.05), higher in the SF and PMA +SF than in the A-R group (0.498 0 ±0.0432 4 and 0.7240 ±0.1234 vs 0.325 8 ±0.023 5, P<0.05), and in the SF than in the PMA+SF group (P<0.05).Flow cytometry showed significantly increased rates of early , late, and total cell apoptosis in the A -R ([4.96 ±0.59], [18.77 ±0.92], and [23.73 ±0.51]%), SF ([5.86 ±0.38], [10.37 ±0.38], and [16.23 ±0.32]%), and PMA+SF group ([5.71 ±0.58], [5.54 ±0.43], [11.24 ±0.62]%) as compared with the control (P<0.05), remarkably lower in the SF and PMA +SF than in the A-R group (P<0.05), and the late and total cell apoptosis rates markedly lower in the SF than in the PMA+SF group (P<0.05). Conclusion Sufentanil has a protective effect and PKC agonists combined with sufentanil may add to the effect on myocardial cells in A -R injury.

Objective To investigate altered levels and clinical significance of serum miR-133a in patients with acute coronary syndrome ( ACS ) and stable coronary artery disease ( SCAD ) .Methods Retrospective study.Serum miR-133a levels were determined by TaqMan quantitative reverse-transcription PCR assay in 64 ACS, 62 SCAD patients who were admitted to Jinling Hospital from October 2011 to October 2012 and 70 normal controls who had contemporaneously visited Jinling Hospital for routine examination .The ACS and SCAD patients were diagnosed according to the European Society of Cardiology guidelines .Serum lipid/lipoprotein profiles , myonecrosis biomarkers and Gensini scores were also analyzed .The area under curve ( AUC) and 95%confidence interval ( CI) were calculated using ROC analyses .The odds ratio ( OR) and 95%CI were calculated using the multivariate logistic regression analyses .Results Compared with the controls [ΔCt:1.00 ±0.05], serum miR-133a levels were significantly increased in both ACS [ΔCt:2.34 ±0.24] (t=6.059, P<0.001) and SCAD [ΔCt:1.45 ±0.13] (t=3.265, P=0.001) patients.The miR-133a levels in ACS patients were significantly higher than in SCAD patients (t=3.133, P=0.002). Serum miR-133a were positively correlated with levels of creatine kinase MB ( CK-MB) ( r=0.402, P<0.001), cardiac troponin I (cTNI) (r=0.410, P=0.001) and Gensini scores (r=0.438, P<0.001). ROC curve analyses showed that the AUC of miR-133a for differentiating coronary artery disease (CAD) and controls was 0.717 (95%CI:0.645-0.788, P<0.001) and the AUC for differentiating ACS and SCAD was 0.667 (95% CI:0.573-0.761, P=0.001).Logistic regression analyses revealed that high miR-133a levels were closely associated with the presence of ACS ( OR=6.00, 95% CI:1.93 -18.67, P=0.002) and SCAD (OR=2.81, 95%CI:1.03-7.68, P=0.044), and also had statistical significance for differentiating ACS and SCAD (OR=2.13, 95% CI:1.20-3.78, P=0.010), after adjustment for the age, gender and serum lipid/lipoprotein levels.Conclusions Serum miR-133a levels were significantly elevated in CAD patients, and ACS patients exhibited the more significant increase .Serum miR-133a may be function as the potential biomarker for the disease assessment and judgement .

Objective To investigate the characteristic changes of the metabolism products in the auditory cortex (transverse temporal gyrus)in patients with metabolic syndrome combined with sensorineural deafness using 1 H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H-MRS),and to find out the early warning indicators of sensorineural deafness in patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods The pure tone audiometry (PTA)was performed in 142 pa-tients with metabolic syndrome (diagnosed by endocrinology department),and 15 healthy subjects as the control group.The patients were divided into four groups:the metabolic syndrome group;the metabolic syndrome group with unilateral,the bilateral deafness group,and the control group.Cerebral metabolism was studied by assessing the ratios of nitro-acetyl aspartate contrast to choline (NAA/Cho)as well as to creatine (NAA/Cr),myo-inosi-tol to creatine (mI/Cr)and choline to creatine (Cho/Cr)ratios in the auditory cortical separately in these groups. ROC curves were made for those metabolism markers to find the best diagnostic threshold.Results Significantly lower values of NAA/Cho ratio and higher values of Cho/Cr were observed in metabolic syndrome in the control group (P<0.05),Cho/Cr higher than those (P<0.05).NAA/Cho ratios in the injured and uninjured auditory cortex of MS with unilateral deafness were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).A self-comparison was made between the inj ured and uninj ured auditory cortex,the result showed that NAA/Cho ratio had significant differences.All of the metabolisms were tested by the curve of ROC.The area of NAA/Cho under the ROC curve was 81%,which had a higher accuracy.NAA/Cho equating to 1 .82 could be used as the boundary indi-cators between metabolic syndrome without deafness and with deafness groups.The areas of the other indicators un-der the ROC curve were <50%.Conclusion NAA/Cho may be the early warning marker of sensorineural deafness in patients with metabolic syndrome.
