PKC plays a pivotal role in the mechanism of myocardial preconditioning. After preconditioning, PKC is activated and translocated to membranes and cytoskeleton structures by multiple endogenous substances such as adenosine, calcium, etc. Recent studies imply that MAPK carries the signal from PKC to the mitochondria K ATP channel and thus protect the heart.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Zepu county of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods From February 2013 to January 2017,153 AMI patients hospitalized in emergency ICU of People''s Hospital of Zepu County of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were collected.The population characteristics,clinical manifestations,laboratory examinations,prognosis and complications were retrospectively analyzed and summarized.ResultsThe average age of AMI patients was 57.1 years old,included 133 cases (86.9％) ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI),non ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients were 20 cases (13.1％),most patients with chest pain (92.8％) and chest congestion(85.6％) symptoms.Anterior wall STEMI patients were 45 cases (33.8％),inferior wall infarction were 27 cases (20.3％),anteroseptal infarction were 15 cases (11.3％).73 patients were treated with thrombolysis,the recanalization rate was 93.2％.The cardiogenic shock complication occurred in 12 cases (7.8％) during hospitalization,12 cases (7.8％) were concurrent with Killip level 3 or higher heart failure,10 cases (6.5％) were concurrent with ventricular fibrillation.The onset age between Han nationality and Uygur nationality patients was significantly different (t=6.82),the onset age of Uygur nationality was younger than the Han nationality.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in sex,blood sugar level,cholesterol level,triglyceride level,high density lipoprotein level,low density lipoprotein level (χ2=0.02,P＞0.05;t=0.86,0.65,1.14,0.23,0.27,all P＞0.05).Conclusion The population features,clinical manifestations,disease courses and therapeutic effects of the AMI patients in Zepu county of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region have certain characteristics,understanding these characteristics is beneficial for treating the disease.

Objective To study the effect of different warm-ischemia time on islet structure, yield and function. Methods Adult pigs were studied, and according to warm ischemic time (WIT, 0, 10, 20, 30, 45 min), the porcine pancreata were divided into 5 groups (A, B, C, D, and E group). The isolation of adult porcine pancreas was carried out by injection of Hanks into pancreatic duct and digestion with collagenase Ⅴ and Ⅰ. A discontinuous Ficoll 400 solution was applied for purifying islets. The structure, purity and viability of islets were determined by dithizone staining and AO/PI staining, and the function of islets was evaluated by the glucose stimulating insulin release test. Results There were little islets debris in group A, B and C. But it was very difficult to obtain integrate islets in group E. There was no significant difference between the groups of 0, 10 and 20 min in islet number before and after islet purification ( P ＞ 0.05 ), while the difference was significant when warm ischemic time was prolonged to 30 min and 45 min ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). In respect of islet function, the similar results were found in different groups. Conclusions When WIT is within 20 min, there is no deleterious effects on islet morphology and yield as well as function. However, when WIT is prolonged to 30 min, the loss in islet yield is severe, and the islet function is significantly impacted.

Background and purpose:Actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 5 (ARPC5) is involved in the packaging of actin, and then affects the mobility of cells. It plays an important role in the formation of invadopodia of cancer cells. This study aimed to investigate the effect of ARPC5 gene-silence on cell proliferation, migration and invasion of lung squamous carcinoma cell line SK-MES-1. Methods:Under the induction of LipofectamineTM RNAiMAX, the recombinant of si-ARPC5 was transfected into SK-MES-1. The experiment set up 3 groups:blank (mock) group, negative control (NC) group and si-ARPC5 transfected group. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion assays were investigated by cell counting kit(CCK-8) method, scratch assay and Transwell Chambers respectively. Results:The result of qRT-PCR and Western blot displayed downregulation of ARPC5 in mRNA and protein level of SK-MES-1 cell. Proliferation rate of SK-MES-1 cells in 72 h after si-ARPC5 transfection was lower than those in mock and NC groups (t=7.993, t=8.681, P<0.05). Compared to the mock and NC groups, the scratch repairing rate of the si-ARPC5 group was lower [(43.32±0.23)%vs (73.11±0.43)%and (76.58±0.88)%] (t=7.348, t=10.614, P<0.05);And the number of penetrating the membrane was signiifcantly reduced [(27±6) vs (101±11) and (92±9)] (t=10.229, t=8.391,P<0.05). Conclusion:Downregulation of ARPC5 gene can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of SK-MES-1 cell.

Macrophages are important immunocytes in human body , playing an important role in antigen and inflammation process.In recent years , it has shown that macrophage is a kind of cell mass with high plasticity , heterogeneity , diverse and variable immune functions .They can be polarized into different phenotypes in different microenvironments or stimulations , playing different roles in the process of inflammation .There are a variety of factors which can modulate macrophage polarization process , such as the de-velopment and progression of metabolic diseases .The polarization of adipose tissue macrophages and the factors in the regulation of macrophage polarization are summarized in this paper .

Myocarditis is one of the most common acquired heart diseases in children,and one of the most common causes of a pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy phenotype.The myocarditis is a difficult issue in the diagnosis and the optimal means of therapy.A recent Pediatric Cardiomyopathy Registry (PCMR) analysis in the largest group of pediatric myocarditis patients ever studied confirmed that the most common outcome in pediatric myocarditis was cardiac recovery,but approximately 30％ of pediatric myocarditis patients would die or undergo heart transplantation.Animal studies and adult experience suggested that autoimmunity might contribute to cardiac dysfunction in myocarditis.Immunosuppressive and immunomodulating therapy for pediatric myocarditis remains controversial.Small case series have shown benefit of these therapies in pediatric myocarditis.A limited number of biomarkers associated both good (recovery) and poor (death or transplantation) outcomes could be identified.We should do our best to find these biomarkers in the future.

Young faculty are an essential part of a university's strength and is important for its sustainable development.And their scientific research capability is associated with the long-term development of the university.At present,there are 4 major problems with the development of young faculty's research capabilities,which include their relatively single academic knowledge structure,insufficient experience in writing proposals,insufficient opportunities for academic exchange,and inequity in resource allocation.Establishing a training mechanism may help solve some of the problems and promot their development.The research management department of a university must abandon erroneous traditional management concepts,provide research training seminars,develop a new mechanism to stimulate academic exchange,design a system for short-term laboratory rotations,and promote the participation of your faculty in major research projects.These may bring about marked improvement in the improvement of young faculty's research capabilities.
