AIM: To investingate the variety of the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy and the effect of Huayu Qinli Granule on (Hirudo,Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae,Herba Leonuri,etc.) it. METHODS: This was a prospective,comparative and single-blind clinical trial.Patients in accord with the diagnosis and TCM differentiation standard were randomly divided into treatment group,united treatment group,blank control group and positive control group.Before the beginning of the trial,all patients were treated by Felodipine to lower their blood pressure to desired value.When the trial began,blank control group were treated only by Felodipine, positive control group were treated by general hypertension pills+captopril,treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule,united treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule+captopril.The course of study was for 4 weeks.The levels of urinary microalbumine(ALB),urinary ?_1-microglobulin(?_1-mg),urinary?_2-microglobulin(?_2-mg),serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin were measured before and after the trial. RESULTS: The results showed both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of serum nitric oxide but there was slightly advantage over ACEI;both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of plasma endothelin,the improvement of Huayu Qinli Granule was(equal) to ACEI;united treatment group had the remarkable effect on serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that Huayu Qinli Granule improves the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy to a certain extent with the sufficiency of the treatment of depressing blood pressure.The effect of Huayu Qinli Granule is similar to that of ACEI.They cooperate with each other but mechanism of them may be different.

Objective To study the microstructural and ultrastructural changes of the epididymis of experimental varicocele in adolescent rats and it's role in infertility resulting from varicocele. Methods A varicocele model was performed in adolescent Sprague Dawley rats by partially ligating the left renal vein,the different segments of the epididymides of the rats were prepared for light and electron microscopy,the microstructure and ultrastructure of the epididymis were studied. Results There were lesions of different degree and segment specific changes in the epididymis with varicocele.Light microscopically,the main changes were interstitial vascular hyperemia,lymphocytes infiltration,sperm granuloma developed in the interstitial;The structure of the columnar epithelia was anomalies,epithelial cells degeneration,even the vacuoles appeared in the epithelial cells.The number of halo and clear cells increased.Inside the cavity of the duct,there were shedding cells,macrophage,deformed sperms and residual bodies.Electron microscopically,numerous large lysosomes,the residual bodies,the defected main cellular organelles(e.g. the endoplasmic reticulum,the mitochondrion and the Golgi complex etc.)and even large clear vacuoles were presented in the cytoplasm of principal cells.Clear cells were filled with lysosomes that made them frequently bulging into the lumen.The microvilli of the columnar epithelia were sparse and showed local defects.The thickness of the basal membrane increased.Conclusion\ The experimental varicocele in adolescent rats lead to microstructure and ultrastructure lesions in the epididymis,which may be another important reason of infertility resulting from varicocele.\;[

Objective To study the expression of microRNA-301 in pancreatic carcinoma andvalidate the significance of miR-301 in invasion and metastasis of pancreatic carcinoma.Methods miR-301 expression were detected by FQ-PCR in 5 pancreatic cancer eell lines(PANC-1,PaCa-2,AsPC-1,Hs766T.BxPC-3).Further immunohistochemistry in pancreatic cancer tissue microarrays was detected miR-301 expression,which contained 60 pancreatic cancer specimens along with 10 normal adjacent tissues and 10 normal pancreas tissues.After high expression of miR-301 in pancreatic carcinoma being confirmed.the clinical significance of high expression of miR-301 in invasion and metastasis of pancreatic carcinoma were studed.Pancreatic cancer cell lines(PANC-1.PaCa-2)were transfected by 100 nmoml/L miR-301 inhibitor(anti-miR-301)or negative eontrol(Anti-miR~(TM) Negative Control#1).COX-2 and MMP-2 protein expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines were detected by WB.and cell migration assays were performed using transwell technology.Results FQ-PCR resuhs indicated that miR-301 expression was higher in pancreatic cancer cell lines than normal pancreatic cells.The relative level of miR-301 in 5 pancreatic cancer cell lines(PANC-1,PaCa-2,AsPC-1,Hs-766T,BxPC-3)and normal pancreatic cell were 33.09± 4.21,30.76±3.18,47.57±3.56,20.20 ±1.21,76.75±13.51 and 1.00±0.08 respectively.The miR-301 level in all 5 pancreatic cancer cells were significantly higher than those of normal pancreatic cell(t=8.86,9.53,6.39,6.77,11.18,P<0.01).Immunohistochemistry results also showed miR-301 expression was higher in pancreatic carcinoma tissues than those in the cancer adjacent tissues and normal pancreatic tissues.The relative levels of miR-301 in pancreatic carcinoma tissues.normal adjacent tissues and normal pancreas tissues were 0.88±0.09,0.22±0.04 and 0.14±0.05 respectively.The miR-301 levels in pancreatic carcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those of normal adjacent tissues and normal pancreatic tissues(t=15.1,10.6,P<0.01).There was no significant difference between normal adjacent tissues and normal pancreas tissues(t=1.32,P=0.22).After miR-301 inhibitor was introduced into pancreatic cancer cells PANC-1 and PaCa-2.miR-301 levels were reduced while the protein levels of COX-2 and MMP-2.which were invasion and metastasis related factors,were down-regulated.The cell migration assay indicated the numbers of PANC-1 and PaCa-2 cells,which migrated to lower chamber.were 587±27 and 363±13 respectively after miR-301 inhibitor was applied.The numbers of migrated cells were 1091 4-15.737±44 when the netative control was applied.The cell invasion ability was decreased significantly in the inhibitor group compared with the negative group(t=7.89,7.56,P<0.01).Conclusions miR-301 is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer cell lines and pancreatic cancer tissues.Inhibition of miR-301 expression can effectively supress the invasion of pancreatic cancer cells.miR-301 may serve as a new biomarker for early detection of pancreatic cancer and molecular target for early treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To understand the status of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis in Henan Province, so as to provide scientific basis for improving prevention and control strategies.Methods:Ten counties (districts, referred to as counties) were selected from drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas of Henan Province in 2018. Three villages in each project county were selected according to the disease status of mild, moderate and severe conditions, and the operation status of water improvement projects, water fluoride content and dental fluorosis among children aged 8 to 12 years in each diseased village were monitored.Results:Totally 30 villages were surveyed, all of which were in the water improvement projects; a total of 25 water improvement projects were monitored, all of them were in normal operation, and the water fluoride exceeding standard rate was 28.00% (7/25), the qualified rate of water fluoride in the water improvement projects was 72.00% (18/25). Among them, 21 villages were in normal operation and the water fluoride in the water improvement projects met national standard. In which the detection rate of dental fluorosis among children aged 8 to 12 years was 36.71% (606/1 651), the index of dental fluorosis was 0.74, and the epidemic intensity was extremely mild. Water fluoride of water improvement projects in 9 villages exceeded the national standard, where the detection rate of dental fluorosis among children aged 8 to 12 years was 43.57% (261/599), the index of dental fluorosis was 0.78, and the epidemic intensity was extremely mild. The detection rate of dental fluorosis among children in the villages where the water fluoride of water improvement projects exceeded the national standard was higher than that in the villages where the water fluoride of water improvement projects met the national standard (χ 2=8.752, P < 0.01). Conclusions:The excessive fluorine content in the water of water improvement projects is still serious, and the epidemic is still severe. It is necessary to strengthen the scientific demonstration of the water improvement project construction and the project acceptance upon completion, so as to prevent unqualified projects from being put into use. We will carry out regular water quality monitoring and promptly rectify projects with water quality exceeding the standards.
