Objective To investigate the significance of renal tubular dysfunction in patients with refractoriness nephrotic syndrome(RNS)and the effect of interference treatment of Valsartan (VAL).Methods 79 cases of RNS and 68 healthy controls were recruited into the study. The 79 patients of RNS were divided randomly into the VAL group and the dipyridam group. On the basis of routine therapy, the VAL group was given VAL(80mg/d),and the dipyridam group taken dipyridam (150mg/d)orally for 12 weeks The glomerular tubular function(u-RBP,α1-MG,β2-MG,mAlb,NAG)were detected and the pathologic changes of tubukinterstitium were observed by using the methods of ELISA, biochemistry and scoring of the pathologic damage of tubulointerstitium before and after 12 weeks of VAL treatment in all of the cases. Results Urinary RBP,α1-MG,β2-MG,mAlb and NAG in all patients with RNS was evidently higher than that in healthy controls(P<0.01).Those had positive correlations with damages of tubulointerstitium(r=0.436,0.626,0.499,0.668,0.657,P<0.01).The interference outcome displayed that the excretion rates of urinary series of protein after oral use VAL in treatment group were markedly lower, while the control group had no distinct change. Conclusion There were various injury of tubulointerstitium and the disfiguration of renal tubular function in all cases with RNS. Damages of renal tubular function had positive correlation with tubulointemtitium injury and renal globular injury. Interference treatment with ARB in patients with RNS could improve renal tubular function, which is of great significance in delaying the progress of RNS.

Objective: To detect the mutation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in peripheral blood of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Yunnan area with Super-ARMS, and to explore its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics. Methods: A total of 222 blood samples from patients with NSCLC were collected between January 2017 to December 2018 in the Molecular Diagnostic Center of Yunnan Cancer Hospital. The EGFR gene mutation in peripheral blood samples was detected by SuperARMS, and the relationship between EGFR gene mutation and clinicopathological features was analyzed. Meanwhile, the independent risk factors influencing EFGR mutation were also analyzed. Results: In the peripheral blood of 222 NSCLC patients, there were 81 cases (36.5%) with EGFR gene mutation. Among them, exon 19 deletion and L858R gene point mutation were the most common (75.3% of total mutation); female patients had a higher mutation rate than male patients (45.9% vs 27.0%); patients <60 years old had a higher incidence of mutation than patients≥60 years old (43.2% vs 28.8%) (P<0.05 or P<0.01); moreover, patients with no history of smoking, no history of radical surgery, adenocarcinoma, advanced stage and no history of chemotherapy had higher incidence of EGFR mutation (43.9% vs 21.6%, 39.2% vs 21.2%, 43.9% vs 4.8%, 39.7% vs 23.3% and 44.0% vs 23.5%) (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that young, no smoking history, adenocarcinoma and no surgical history were independent risk factors for EGFR gene mutation (all P<0.01). Conclusion: In the peripheral blood of patients with NSCLC in Yunnan, the mutation rate of EGFR gene is higher in patients with age<60 years old, adenocarcinoma and non-smoking. Super-ARMS method is more sensitive in the detection of EGFR mutation in peripheral blood of lung cancer patients.

ObjectiveFrom the changes of expression of cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) in rats with traumatic brain injury under mild hypothermia treatment with Shenfu decoction as a subsidiary, to speculate the mechanism of protective effect of the decoction on the injury.Methods Ninety Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into three groups by random number table: non-transfection control group, adenovirus mediated immune flourescent reverse transcription virus group (blank AD5-GFP transfection group) and adenovirus mediated immune flourescent reverse transcription virus carrying CIRP silent expression gene group (AD5-GFP-CIRP-SiRNA transfection group), 30 rats in each groups. Then, each group was subdivided into three subgroups: model group, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) low and high dose groups, 10 rats in each subgroup. After the mild hypothermia treatment for 48 hours, in the TCM low dose group and high dose group, a dose of TCM 1 mL/kg and 5 mL/kg was injected via a tail vein into the rat respectively, while in the model group, 1 mL/kg normal saline was injected into the same vein, once a day for consecutive 2 days in all the groups. Before modeling in the blank AD5-GFP transfection group and AD5-GFP-CIRP-SiRNA transfection group, virus transfection models were reproduced at first by one-time intrathecal injection of 0.1 mL AD5-GFP and 0.1 mL (1×1010 pfu/mL) AD5-GFP-CIRP-SiRNA virus vector respectively, and in model group, 0.1 mL normal saline was given. The rat cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus part were collected, the brain cell apoptosis was detected by transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL), the CIRP mRNA expression in the cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus part was measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the protein expressions of rat sarcoma protein Raf, Ras, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), phosphorylation ERK (p-ERK), mitogen activated protein kinase (MEK), p-MEK were determined by Western Blot.Results The brain tissue cell apoptosis indexes (AI) in the cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus part in TCM low, high dose group of non-transfection control and blank AD5-GFP transfection group were lower than those in model group, and the expressions of CIRP mRNA were higher than those in model group, there were no significant differences in AI and CIRP mRNA in the cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus between model, TCM low and high dose groups of AD5-GFP-CIRP-SiRNA transfection group, but AI was significantly higher and CIRP mRNA was significantly lower than that in corresponding subgroups of AD5-GFP transfection control group and blank AD5-GFP transfection group. Western Blot detection showed that: Raf/Ras, p-MEK/MEK protein expressions revealed no statistical significant differences in different parts of each group (allP > 0.05), the p-ERK/ERK protein expression in the cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus part was significantly lower in TCM low and high dose group than that in the model group of non-transfection control group and blank AD5-GFP transfection group, the degree of descent in the TCM high dose group being more significant (the cortex: non-transfection control group was 7.2±1.0 vs. 15.3±1.8, AD5-GFP transfection group was 8.1±0.7 vs. 16.2±1.5; hippocampus part: non-transfection control group was 6.6±0.8 vs. 14.7±2.0, AD5-GFP transfection group was 6.8±1.0 vs. 14.9±1.3; hypothalamus part: non-transfection control group was 9.4±1.1 vs. 12.7±1.7, AD5-GFP transfection group was 10.6±1.3 vs. 9.4±1.1, allP < 0.05). There were no significant statistical differences in p-ERK/ERK protein expression in above brain parts between AD5-GFP-CIRP-SiRNA transfection subgroups (allP > 0.05).Conclusions The Shenfu decoction used in rats with brain trauma under treatment of mild hypothermia is possibly by promoting CIRP over-expression, lowering ERK expression and inhibiting the initiation of signal transduction of the secondary transcription factor phosphorylation, thereby the neural cell apoptosis is decreased and play a subsidiary role of anti-apoptosis of mild hypothermia.
