Objective　To evaluate the efficiency of low molecular weight heparin(LMWH, fraxiparine) given as a single predialysis bolus injection with reused dialyzers in comparison with standard heparin(SH) administered with a continuous infusion. Methods　30 hemodialysis patients were studied in a radomized crossover fashion. Dialyzers fibrer bundle volumes(FBV), predialysis hemocrit and 2 h clearance of urea, creatinine were observed in the first, the fourth dialysis. The plasma heparin activities(anti-Fxa levels) were measured by the chromogenic substrate assay in 0 h, 2 h, 4 h of dialysis. Results　Significant increase (P<0.05) was seen in the number of dialyzer reuse in LMWH group compared with SH group; there was not significant decrease in dialysis FBV as well as 2 h clearance of urea, creatinine (P>0.05); in addition, the plasma heparin activity(anti-Fxa levels) were comparable in both groups after 2 h of dialysis, however, they were significantly higher after 4 h in the LMWH than those in the SH group (P<0.05). Conclusion　LMWH as a single bolus dose can prevent decrease in dialyzer clearance. It is clinically worthy of further popularity.

Objective To explore the effects of aerobic exercise and resistance training on center arterial blood pressure.Methods Fifteen healthy men who had not practiced aerobic exercise or resistance training within the previous 6 months were enrolled in this study.A self-matched pairs design was adopted.All of the subjects performed moderate intensity aerobic exercise,for 30 min initially,and after 2 weeks,performed resistance training at 60％ of their l-repeat maximum effort (1-RM).Their central aortic systolic blood pressure (CSBP) before and after aerobic exercise and resistance training were measured and compared,respectively.The changes in CSBP and an augmentation index (AI) of radial artery and relative blood pressure were compared between the two interventions.Results CSBP decreased significantly after both sorts of training.The two types of training showed no significant difference in their effects on CSBP.However,after a 20 min recovery,systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure were significantly lower after aerobic exercise than after resistance training.The significant difference persisted after 20 min and 40 min of re-covery.The AI of the radial artery was also significantly lower 5 min after aerobic exercise than after resistance train-ing.Conclusions After moderate aerobic exercise and resistance training,CBSP,AI and systolic pressure all display favorable changes.However,moderate intensity aerobic exercise provides the better effect in improving blood pressure.

Objective To investigate the effects of peptide-binding domain (PBD) of heat shock protein (HSP) 72 on epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in rat renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods The expressions of wild-type HSP72,mutant of HSP72 lacking peptide binding domain (HSP72-△PBD) and HSP72-PBD were induced by plasmid transfection.NRK-52E ceils were stimulated by TGF-β1 for 48 h.The expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA),E-cadherin,HSP72 and Smad3/p-Smad3 were detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence.Results After NRK-52E cells were stimulated by TGF-β 1 (10 μg/L) for 48 h,the expression of α-SMA was increased and the protein level of E-cadherin was decreased.Western blotting and immunofluorescence showed that over-expression of both HSP72 and PBD inhibited TGF-β1-induced up-regulation of protein α-SMA expression,down-regulation of protein E-cadherin.However,overexpression of HSP72-△PBD did not change the protein level of E-cadherin and α-SMA.In addition,over-expression of HSP72 and PBD significantly inhibited the phosphorylation of Smad3.Conclusion Inhibition of Smad3 activation and EMT by HSP72 is associated with the function of PBD.

Objective To analyze the changes of clinical and pathological features in the patients of IgA nephropathy with anemia.Methods Four hundred and nine patients of IgA nephropathy diagnosed by renal biopsy were classified into two groups:IgA nephropathy with nonanemia (group 1) and IgA nephropathy with anemia (group 2).Changes were studied retrospectively between the groups.Results Serum hemoglobin level was correlated with the clinical parameters of IgA nephropathy.Companed to group 1,changes in group 2 were as followed:serum creatinine increased,eGFR decreased,proteinuria increased; the global sclerosis,segmental sclerosis,crescents and tubulointerstitial lesions worsened.The glomerular and tubulointerstitial lesions were negatively correlated with serum hemoglobin and eGFR,but positively correlated with serum uric acid and proteinuria (P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that anemia was an independent risk factor for the tubulointerstitial lesion.Conclusion Clinical feature and pathological damages in the patients of IgA nephropathy with anemia are more serious than those with non-anemia.

Objective To explore the protective effects of geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) on acute renal failure tats induced by isehemia reperfusion (IR) and the possible mechanism. Methods GGA (400 mg/kg) was administered to induce overexpression of heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) in the kidney of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. IR model was generated by temporary clamping the left renal artery for 45 minutes followed by right nephrectomy and 24 h reperfusion. A sham-operated group was used as normal control. 24 h after reperfnsion, rats were sacrificed. Blood was collected for measurement of serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen ( BUN ). Paraffin-embedded sections of the kidney were stained with PAS. Histological changes due to tubular damage were quantitated as tubular damage score. TUNEL assay was used to detect the apoptosis, and Western-blot was used to detect the expression of XIAP. Results After renal IR, the increased level of BUN and Scr, the tubular injury and the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells were observed (P＜0.01). At the same time, the decreased level of XIAP was observed (P＜ 0.01). Compared with the control groups, the level of HSP72 expression was up-regulated in oral administration of GGA group (P＜0.05). The expression levels of BUN and serum creatinine were significantly decreased after IR injury in pre-conditioned rats with over-expression of HSP72 (P＜ 0.01 ). Kidney morphology was better preserved in GGA group. Rats with over-expression of HSP72 also revealed reduction of apoptotic cells by TUNEL stain and XIAP degradation by Western blot (P＜0.05). Conclusion GGA attenuates renal IR injury at least in part through inhibiting tubular cell apoptosis by decreasing XAIP degradation and restoring XIAP protein level.

Objective To investigate the role of C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells(RPMCs). Methods RPMCs were harvested from the peritoneum of male Sprague-Dawley rats, then cultured in DMEM/F12 medium with 15% (V/V) FBS. After stimulation with TGF-β1, the expression of a-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), E-cadherin and collagen I were detected in RPMCs. In some groups, the ceils were pretreated with SP600125, a specific inhibitor of JNK, for 4 hours before incubation with TGF-β1. The protein expression of phosphorylated JNK was detected by Western blotting. The mRNA and protein expression ofα-SMA, E-cadherin and collagen I were examined with RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively.The intracellular distribution and expression of α-SMA was determined by indirect immunofluorescence. Results TGF-β1 could significantly increase the expression of α-SMA and collagen I, and decrease the expression of E-cadherin in RPMCs. TGF-α1 could stimulate the expression of phosphorylated JNK at 5 minutes with the peak at 10 minutes (P<0.01). The addition of SP600125 effectively inhibited TGF-β1-induced high expression of α-SMA and collagen I (P<0.05), and prevented TGF-β1-induced down-regulation of E-cadherin expression in RPMCs (P<0.05). The indirect immunofluorescence showed that the expression of intracellular α-SMA in RPMCs stimulated by TGF-β1 for 48 h increased significantly, which could be inhibited by SP600125. Conclusions JNK regulates epithelial mesenchymal transition induced by TGF-β1 in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells. JNK inhibitor may be used as a novel therapeutic agent for peritoneal fibrosis.

Objecfive To investigate the change of V-ATPase B subunits on epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)in rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK52E) stimulated by transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1). Methods NRK52E cells were stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for O h(control),12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h after sefrum-free culture for 24 h.The mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin,α-SMA,B2 and B1 subunits of V-ATPase were detected by real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results After stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for 48 h,the expression of α-SMA was markedly increased(P<0.05),but the expression of E-cadherin was dramatically decreased(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the expressions of V-ATPase subunit B2 was significantly increased (P<0.05).However,the B1 subunit distributed rarely in NRK 52E cells,and did not increase after TGF-β1 stimulation.Double-label immunofluoerscence staining also showed that the V-ATPase B2 subunit was increased in the cytosol.tending to accumulate to the cell membrane after TGF-β1 stimulation. Conclusions The main isoform of V-ATPase distributed in NRK52E cells is B2 subunit.B2 subunit is increased alone with TGF-β1-induced EMT.It may suggest that V-ATPase B2 subunit may play a potential role in TGF-β1-induced tubular EMT and renal fibrosis.
