AIM:To investigate the expression of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-2 (PARP-2) during rat car-diac hypertrophy in vitro and in vivo, and to explore the effects of PARP-2 on the cardiac hypertrophy.METHODS:Ab-dominal aortic coarctation ( AAC) was performed to establish a model of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy in SD rats.The expression of PARP-2 at mRNA and protein levels in the myocardium was determined by real-time PCR and Western blot.The hypertrophy model of the cardiomyocytes was induced by treating the cells with angiotensinⅡ( AngⅡ) . PARP-2 was knocked down by siRNAs in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and the cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was evaluated by measuring the mRNA levels of ANF, BNP, and β-MHC and the cellular surface area.RESULTS: The expression of PARP-2 at mRNA and protein levels was both increased in the AAC rats as compared with those in the sham animals.The expression of PARP-2 at mRNA and protein levels was also increased in a time-and concentration-dependent manner in AngⅡ-induced hypertrophy model of the cardiomyocytes.In the neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, knockdown of PARP-2 ex-pression by siRNA attenuated AngⅡ-induced cardiac hypertrophy of the cardiomyocytes, indicating that endogenous PARP-2 played a positive regulatory role in cardiac hypertrophy.CONCLUSION:The mRNA and protein levels of PARP-2 in-crease in the in vitro and in vivo models of cardiac hypertrophy.Knockdown of PARP-2 protects cardiomyocytes from hyper-trophy.

Objective Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) cDNA was transfected into colorectal cancer cell lines LOVO with the lentiviral vector,the anticancer effeciency of 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5'-DFUR)and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) on LOVO cells were evaluated.Methods TP cDNA were transfected into LOVO cell line with the lentiviral vector pLenti6.3_MCS_IRES2-EGFP,and the transfection efficiency was analyzed by flow cytometer and immunohistochemistry.Cells were divided into six groups:LOVO,LOVO-TP,LOVO-control,LOVO + INF-α2a,LOVO-TP + INF-α2a,LOVO-control + INF-α2a.TP protein expression and the relative quantitative analysis for TP mRNA in transfections cells were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR respectively.Volumes of converted 5-FU from either in the medium containing different concentration of 5'-DFUR,in which all cells were cultured,or in cells lysate,were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).Results The transfection efficiency of TP cDNA in LOVO cells was 95％.The Mean gray value of TP protein expression in LOVO-TP and LOVO-TP + INF-α2a were 198.15 folds and 243.22 folds higher than LOVO cell,respectively (P ＜ 0.01).The RQ values of TP mRNA expression in LOVO-TP and LOVO-TP + INF-α2a were also 18.56 folds and 59.61 folds higher than wild LOVO cell,respectively (P ＜ 0.01).The IC50 values of 5'-DFUR on LOVO-TP and LOVO-TP + INF-α2a were 1 660 μ mol/L and 813 μ mol/L,respectively,significantly lower than 4 462.59 μ mol/L in wild LOVO (P ＜ O.01).The 5-FU volumes detected from media contained series concentration of 5'-DFUR for culturing LOVO-TP and LOVO-TP + INF-α2a were 2.0-5.3 folds,and 2.9-10.4 folds more than wild LOVO,respectively (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Transfected TP cDNA into colorectal cancer cell line LOVO with lentiviral vector increases the expression of TP mRNA and TP protein and the amount of 5-FU converted from 5'-DFUR,enhancing its anticancer effect.

Objective To investigate the effects of remote preconditioning on inflammatory cytokines and respiratory index of rabbit lung injured by ischemia/reperfusion.Methods Eighteen rabbits were randomly divided into three groups(6 each):control group(C),ischemia-reperfusion group(I/R)and remote preconditioning group(R).The plasma concentrations of interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)and interleukin-10(IL-10)were measured before ischemia and 60,120 and 180 min after reperfusion.Respiratory index(A-aO2/PaO2)was calculated before ischemia and 15,30,60,120 and 180 min after reperfusion.The animals were sacrificed after reperfusion,and the left lung was removed for calculation of wet/dry(W/D)ratio and lung permeability index,histological examination was done with light microscope,and diffuse alveolar damage(DAD)scores was estimated.Results The plasma concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-? were significantly higher in I/R group than in C group(P

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of CEUS for thyroid TI-RADS 3,4 nodules.Methods The CEUS performence of 95 patients with thyroid TI-RADS 3,4 nodules (all were confirmed by surgery pathology) diagosed by conventional ultrasound were reviewed retrospectively,and the value of CEUS in the revision and differential diagnosis of thyroid TI-RADS 3,4 nodules were analyzed.Results Compared with pathological pattern,conventional ultrasound TI-RADS classifications in assessing the property of thyroid nodule had no statistical differences (χ2 =3.56,P =0.06).For thyroid TI-RADS 3,4 nodules,compared with conventional ultrasound TI-RADS classifications,the diagnosis accuracy of CEUS score and revised CEUS TI-RADS classifications showed significant differeces respectively (P=0.03,＜0.01) for thyroid papillary carcinoma greater than 1 cm.But no statistical difference were found respectively (P=0.25,1.00) for thyroid papillary carcinoma smaller than 1 cm.According to the ROC curve analysis,the area under the curve of traditional ultrasound TI-RADS classifications,CEUS score and revised CEUS TI-RADS classifications were 0.64,0.75,0.81 respectively,cut-off value was TI-RADS 4a,1 score,TI-RADS 4a respectively,the sensitivity and specificity of evaluating benign and malignant nodules was 45.3％ and 80.0％,69.3％ and 65.0％,82.7％ and 60.0％,respectively.The area under the ROC curve were statistical difference between CEUS score,revised CEUS TI-RADS classifications and conventional ultrasound TI-RADS classifications (both P＜0.05),while CEUS score and revised CEUS TI-RADS classifications without statistical difference.Conclusion CEUS had the revised and improved identification value for thyroid TI-RADS 3,4 nodules.

Objective To perform modification study of cyanoacrylate (CA) medical adhesive and to select the optimal mo-difying material and the best ratio.Methods Carboxylic multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), hydrophobic nano-silica, nitrile rubber, epoxy resin and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) were used to modify 5% triclosan/cyanoacrylate antimicrobial adhesive respectively. The bond strength, toughness and viscosity of the modified adhesive were examined in different concentrations.Results 0.064% MWCNTs-COOH, 6% nano-silica, 4% nitrile rubber and 6.4% epoxy resin all had good effects in strength modification. The bond strength were (14.71±1.48)MPa, (14.03±1.92)MPa, (14.6±1.78)MPa and (14.05±1.46)MPa respectively. 8% nano-silica had the lowest Tg of (1.1±0.24)℃ and the strongest viscosity of (15 536.68±28.4)cP. When the nano-silica concentration was 8%, the compound was very viscous and sticky. When the antimicrobial adhesive modified with 6% nano-silica, the bond strength was (14.03±1.92)MPa, the Tg was (3.6±0.68)℃, and the viscosity was (5 278.87±31.68)cP.Conclusion 6% nano-silica is the best modifying material, and has the optimal effect of modification.

Objective To learn the current deployment and problems of medical equipment at 44 hospitals directly under or managed by the NHFPC,studying the correlation between the number of equipment deployment,and amount of outpatients/inpatients and inpatient surgeries for recommendations on scientific and rational deployment of medical equipment.Methods Literature review,expert consultation and questionnaire survey methods were used to study the use and problems in hospital equipment deployment.EpiData was used to build a database,and the means,standard variations and constituent ratios were applied for descriptive analysis of medical equipment deployment of the hospital departments.The data of hospital equipment usage and staffing,hospital beds,and service volume were subject to correlation analysis.Results 24 of the 44 hospitals were deployed with class-A medical equipment,covering eight types and 43 devices;the 44 hospitals were deployed with 441 class-B equipment of five types;the equipment types in great demand at such hospitals were MRI (77.27%),CT (70.45%),bioanalysis devices (68.18%),conventional radiation devices (52.27%),and conventional equipments (54.55%).The survey found a positive correlation ( P <0.05 ) between the equipments,and the amount of outpatients/inpatients and inpatient surgeries.Conclusions Hospitals should further establish and improve their deployment management system,rationalize their deployment procedures,and use scientific and rational deployment.Such approaches as equipment sharing,centralized management and performance appraisal could be called into play to improve equipment efficiency.
