Objective: To explore the effect of high glucose on NADPH oxidase (NOX) expression and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods: HUVECs were divided into a control group, a mannite group, a glucose group and aglucose plus diphenylene iodonium (DPI) group. Intracellular ROS was detected by lfow cytometry. RNA and protein expression of NOX in HUVECs was analyzed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot, respectively. Results: 1) Compared with the control group, the intracellular ROS were signiifcantly increased in the glucose group (P<0.05,n=3), but there were no signiifcant change in the glucose plus DPI group (P>0.05,n=3); 2) Compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expression of NOX4 in the glucose group were signiifcantly increased (P<0.05), but there were no signiifcant change in the mRNA and protein expression of NOX2, p22phox, p67phox and rac (allP>0.05); 3) there were no signiifcant difference in the mRNA and protein expression of NOX2, NOX4, p22phox, p67phox and rac between the glucose plus DPI group and the control group (allP>0.05). Conclusion: High glucose may increases intracellular ROS generation by increasing the expression of NOX4 in HUVECs, which might mediate the oxidative stress.

Objective:To observe the influence of isehemia-reperfusion(I/R)on hepatoma growth and on the expression of genes associated with tumor metastasis and recurrence(VEGF and MMP-9)in the adjacent tissues of cancer in nude mice. Methods:BALB/c nude mouse model bearing Hep3B-tumor in the liver was established and the model mice were evenly randomly into 5 groups:sham group and ischemia/reperfusion 1 h,6 h,5 d,and 7 d groups(n=8).I/R models were established by blocking porta hepatic;the sham group underwent the same treatment as the I/R model group except for blocking of porta hepatic.ALT and AST were detected in I/R 1 h and 6 h groups.Real-time-PCR was employed to detect the change of VEGF and MMP-9 in the adjacent tissues of cancer and the results were compared with that of the control group(n=6). Histopathological changes of liver were studied by H-E staining and necrotic areas were calculated in I/R 5 d and 7 d groups (n=6).The remnant tumor bearing mice were sacrificed 2 weeks after I/R to measure the volume and mass of the tumors. Results:Two weeks later,the tumor volume and mass in I/R group were increased compared with those in the sham group ([209.6?25.74]mm~3 vs[330.6?32.01]mm~3,[0.214?0.036]g vs[0.374?0.045]g,P

Objective To discuss cause and treatment measures of the postoperative failed to fully automatic nail in patients with circumcision by disposable circumcision suture device, so as to improve the quality of the circumcision.Methods 182 cases received circumcision by disposable circumcision suture device were randomly selected from September 2014 to March 2015 in the hospital and divided into control group ( n =86 ) and treatment group (n=96).All the patients received oral antibiotics for three days conventionally.Patients in control group were dressing with 0.1%iodine after treatment, dressing change every two or three days, while the treatment group soaking with 30 mL to 40 mL compound prescription cortex phellodendri chinensis fluid for 15 min two times per day.The postoperative wound anastomosis nail loss effect in two groups were compared.Results The time of complete nail loss in patients soaking with compound prescription cortex phellodendri chinensis fluid was significantly shorter than that in patients dressing with 0.1% iodine (P<0.05), but there was no significantly difference of the first time to lose nail between two groups.The rate of complete nail loss in treatment group was 94 cases (97.9%), which was significantly higher than 68 cases (79.1%) in control group (χ2 =16.47,P<0.05). The adverse reactions were mild of two groups.Conclusion The compound prescription cortex phellodendri chinensis fluid has exact effect on postoperative wound anastomosis nail loss and recovery in patients’ with circumcision by disposable circumcision suture device.

Objective To establish a mouse ’ s cross-territory ear flap that enables chronic , in-vivo observation of the change of vascular morphology .Methods 30 ICR mice, weighing 25~40 g, were used for this study .Commercial depilatory cream was used to first remove the hair of the mice , after which the vascular pattern in the ears was investigated . According to the observation of the vascular pattern in the mouse ’ s ear, the eye scissors were used the sever the outer 2/3 of the base of the ear , in which process a ear ’ s flap based on a vascular pedicle but crossed three vascular territories was created.After the creation of the flap , the mice were placed on an automatic controlled movable machine with the ear ’ s flaps spread over a customized Plexiglas .Then the flaps were photographed under the stereoscope ( ×25) at the following time points:1,2,3,5,7,10,14,21,30 d.the necrosis of the flap, and the morphological change of the vessels within theflap were analyzed .Results The ICR mouse ’ s ear was supplied three angiosomes , which were respectively named as the cephalic , median and caudal angiosomes from inside out .Five days after the flap’s creating, necrotic rate of(15 ±7)%was developed .The choke vessels between the medial and median angiosomes expanded rapidly in diameter , reaching the plateau 10d after flap creation, resulting the dilated choke veins and arteries at their peak being 3.9 ±0.5 and 3.5 ±0.7, respectively, than their initial sizes.The diameter of the choke veins began to shrink at approximately 10d, stabilizing after 21d.The diameter of the choke arteries plateaued and stabilized at around 10d.Conclusion ①after harvest of extended flap, the dilation of veins seemed to passive , whereas the dilation of arteries seemed to active;②the number of the choke vessels between the dynamic and potential territories that are involved in dilation and extent of the dilation are much smaller than that of the choke vessels between the anatomic and dynamic territories;③the mouse ’ s ear flap is an excellent model of further study of mechanism underlining the dilation of choke vessels and for the screening of vasoactive drugs that augment the survival of the large flap .

Aim To explore the anti-apoptotic function of cardiac progenitor cells(CPCs)-derived exosome in vitro.Method CPCs were isolated from mouse heart using Magnetic Cell Sorting(MACS)system.Flow Cy-tometry(FC)determine the purity of stem cell surface antigen-1 positive(Sca-1 +)CPCs.Exosome was puri-fied from conditional medium,and confirmed by West-ern blot using CD63 as a marker,Nanoparticle Traffic-king Analysis(NTA)was used to detect the diameters and concentration of exosome.Then the cells were di-vided into control groups and CPC-exosome pre-protec-tion groups.H2 O2 was added into H9c2 cells to induce oxidative stress.Western blot was adopted to determine the expression of cleaved caspase-3.Results ① Im-munofluorescence showed that CPCs isolated by MACS were positively expressing Sca-1 protein;FC analysis showed that typical purity of Sca-1 +CPCs from the first
preparations was more than 95%.② WB demonstrated that CD63 of exosome isolated from CCMwas positively expressed,and NTA results showed that the diameters of exosome were (82.33 ±3.06)nm(n =3).Micro-scope detected PKH-26 labeled exosome appeared in the cytoplasma of H9c2 cells.③ Western blot showed the CPC-exosome pre-protection groups significantly down-regulated the levels of cleaved caspase-3 com-pared to the control groups(P <0.05).Conclusion CPC can secrete exosome which carries many important cargos,which can effectively gather in H9c2 cells. CPC-exosome can protect H9c2 cells from the oxidative stress induced by H2 O2 .Our results highlight a new perspective strategy for cardiac disease.
