Aim To study the protective effect of tetra-hydroxystilbeneglucoside ( TSG ) on cardiac injury and the mechanism involved in silent mating type informa-tion regulation 2 homolog 1 ( SIRT1 ) and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase( AMPK) in the diabetic rats. Methods Type 2 diabetic rats were sac-rificed after administration with TSG for 8 weeks. Blood glucose, blood lipids, liverfunction,creatine ki-nase ( CK ) , lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH ) as well as myocardial nonesterified fatty acids( NEFA) were deter-mined by using biochemical test. The concentration of myocardial fatty acid transport proteins ( FATPs ) and-fatty acid β-oxidase ( FA-β-oxidase ) , and the levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha ( TNF-α) , interleukin -6 ( IL-6 ) , interleukin-1β( IL-1β) in serum were also measured by ELISA method and radio immunoassay re-spectively. The protein expressions of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, SIRT1 and AMPK were detected by Western blot. Results Treatment of TSG reduced the contentof blood lipids, NEFA and collagen without affecting the content of blood glucose and insulin. The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1βin serum as well as the protein expressions of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β of cardia were also inhibited by administration with TSG. Treatment of TSG caused a significantly increased concentration of myocaidial FATPs and FA-β-oxidase, and dramatically restored the decreased protein expressions of SIRT1 and pAMPK in diabetic rats. Conclusion The protec-tive mechanisms of TSG against diabetic rats are in-volved in the alleviation of inflammatory mediator injury and improving energy metabolism.

Objective To observe the morphological changes of rats' pancreas and nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin(ET) in the blood serum in rats after exposure to different pulses of high power pulse microwave (HPPMW).Methods SD-rats were irradiated with 104,105 and 4 × 105 pulses of HPPMW,respectively.After gloss observation,the histopathological changes of pancreas were observed through biological microscope and electroscope.The changes of amylase,nitric oxide and endothelin in blood serum were detected by biochemical and radio-immunological methods. Results Compared with the blank control,no apparent abnormality could be observed in the pancreas of all groups.The dilatation of capillary could be observed in each experimental group by microscope.The ultrastructure changes of pancreas were most serious in 4 × 105 pulse group,especially at 24 and 48 h after irradiation.Compared with the control group,the levels of serum amylase were decreased (F =12.58,11.73,P < 0.05),while ET were increased (F =4.50,4.49,P <0.05) at 24 and 48 h after irradiation.The levels of NO in serum were increased ( F =17.51,41.72,19.98,32.64,P < 0.05 ) at each time-point.The level of NO went up with the increase of pulses.Conclusions HPPMW has damage effects on the pancreas in rats.The pulses with the pancreas can lead to severity of the damage. The mechanism of HPPMW may be involved in the enhancement of ET and NO in serum.

BACKGROUND:How to make more transplanted bone marrow stem cel s stay and differentiate in the liver is an important issue, which is also crucial for treatment of liver cirrhosis via the hepatic artery.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic effect of autologous bone marrow stem cel transplantation via the hepatic artery on liver cirrhosis.
METHODS:Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were equivalently randomized into normal control, stem cel transplantation and model groups. Animal models of liver cirrhosis were made in the latter two groups. Then, model rabbits in the stem cel transplantation group were subjected to autologous bone marrow stem cel transplantation via the hepatic artery. Liver function of rabbits was detected in 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 weeks after cel transplantation, and pathological detection of the liver was performed in the 10th week.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 10 weeks after cel transplantation, the liver function of the rabbits was improved significantly compared with the model group, including reduced activities of serum alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin and aspartate aminotransferase, shortened activated partial thromboplastin time, and increased albumin level (P<0.05). Pathological examination of the liver showed that the liver cel s in the stem cel transplantation group were intact with no obvious edema and stil had the structure of the pseudolobule, and compared with the model group, the degree of liver fibrosis was significantly reduced in the stem cel transplantation group. Our experimental results show that the transplantation of autologous bone marrow stem cel s via the hepatic artery has a certain therapeutic effect on liver cirrhosis by increasing the body albumin content in a short time and improving the liver function.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) on therapy-related leukemia (TRL).Methods:The clinical data of 14 patients with TRL who received allo-HSCT in Aerospace Central Hospital from April 2012 to February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the therapeutic efficacy and survival status were also analyzed.Results:Of the 14 patients, 5 were males and 9 were females; the median age was 35 years old (12-59 years old). There were 12 patients with acute myeloid leukemia, 1 patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small cell lymphoma, and 1 patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. At the time of transplantation, 4 patients achieved bone marrow complete remission, 3 patients achieved bone marrow partial remission, and the remaining 7 patients had no remission. Five patients received HLA-matched sibling transplantation, 9 patients received haplotype transplantation, and they all received myeloablative pretreatment schemes. All 14 patients were successfully implanted; the median engraftment time of granulocyte was 16 d (10-24 d), and the median engraftment time of platelet was 13 d (10-34 d). Grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) occurred in 7 patients, chronic GVHD occurred in 6 patients, and grade Ⅲ intestinal GVHD occurred in 2 patients. The median follow-up time was 32 months (4-97 months). Among 14 patients, 5 patients died.Conclusion:The allo-HSCT can improve the prognosis and long-term survival rate of TRL patients.

Aim To study the effect of (S) -1, 8-(2-methyl phosphate ethoxy )-6-fluorine-7-( 4-methyl- pi-perazine-1-base )-3-[ S-benzyls-based-4-( for nitroben-zene methylene group amino )-1 , 2 , 4-all triazole-3 base]-quinoline ( 1-H )-4-ketone ( M18 ) on apoptosis of hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 cells in vitro. Meth-ods With different concentrations of M18 at different time used to treat SMMC-7721 cells, human breast cancer MB-231cells, human colon cancer HCT-116 cells, human hepatocarcinoma HEPG-2 cells, mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells ( BMSCs ) in vitro,the inhibition effects of M18 on cell proliferation were examined by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was de-termined using Hoechst 33258 fluorescence staining and TUNEL method. Mitochondrial membrane poten-tial (△ψm ) was measured using a high content screening image system. Protein expression of caspase-3 , p53 and cytochrome C was detected with Western blot analysis. Results Treatment with M18 ( 4 ~32μmol·L-1 ) potently inhibited the proliferation of the cancer cells in time-and dose-dependent manners ( the IC50 value at 24 h in SMMC-7721 cells, MB-231cells,
HCT-116 cells and HEPG-2 cells was 8. 65 μmol · L-1 , 9. 37 μmol · L-1 , 12. 74 μmol · L-1 and 9. 40μmol · L-1 , respectively ) . In contrast, M18 had weak cytotoxicity against BMSCs with IC50 value of 38. 96 μmol·L-1 . Levofloxacin had weak cytotoxicity against SMMC-7721 cells with IC50 value of 735. 10μmol·L-1 . Treatment of SMMC-7721cells with differ-ent concentrations of M18 for 24 h increased the per-centage of the apoptosis cells ( P <0. 05 ) and de-creased the mitochondrial membrane potential. In ad-dition, M18 increased protein expression of p53, caspase-3 and the cleaved activated forms of caspase-3 in SMMC-7721 cells. Treatment of SMMC-7721 cells with M18 significantly increased cytochrome C in the cytosol, and decreased cytochrome C in the mitochon-drial compartment. Conclusion The mitochondrial-dependent pathways are involved in M18 induction of apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells.
