Objective:To study the role of IFN-?,TNF-? and IL-10 in CAP rats and approach the pathogenesis of CAP.Methods:20 Aged Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: the control group(10 rats) and the rat model for CAP group(10 rats).The changes of prostate gland inflammation was investigated by HE stain.The expression of IFN-? and TNF-? in rat prostatic tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry (sp). The expression of IL-10 in rat prostatic tissue was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results:(1) The CAP model group's histopathology express the obvious inflammation performance;(2) The IFN-?,TNF-? and IL-10 in the rat model for CAP group were higher than the control group (P

Objective:To investigate the influence of TGP on IFN-?,TNF-?and IL-10 in prostatic tissue of CAP rats.Methods:40 aged sprague dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:the control group(10 rats),the rat model for CAP group(10 rats),the rat model for CAP treated with low dose TGP group(10 rats)and the rat model for CAP treated with high dose TGP group(10 rats).The changes of prostate gland inflammation was investigated by HE stain.The expression of IFN-?and TNF-?in rat prostatic tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry(sp).The expression of IL-10 in rat prostatic tissue was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results:(1)The changes in histopathology in the animal model were similar to those in clinical CAP and the inflammation of treatment group obvious change for the better;(2)The IFN-?,TNF-?and IL-10 in the rat model for CAP group were higher than the control group;(3)The IFN-?,TNF-?and IL-10 expression reduces along with the TGP dosage increases in the rat model for CAP (P

Objective:To explore the inhibitive effects of exogenous nitric oxide on the proliferation of in vitro cultured human keloid fibroblasts.Methods:Fibroblasts was isolated from fresh pathological scar tissue and cultured.Fibroblasts were distributed in five groups.Fibroblasts in control group A was cultured without SNP;in experiment group B～D,SNP was used in the concentration of 100、200、300 ?mol/L each;in experiment group E,Fibroblasts was cultured with 200 ?mol/L SNP and 10 ?mol/L methylene blue.After 24h,Griess and MTT were used to detect the concentration of NO and cell vigor.Results:The release of NO increased along with the enhancement of the concentration of SNP.The amount of living cells in experiment groups decreased compared with the controls as shown by MTT tes(tP

Objective To explore the independent prognostic value of plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO) in cardiovascular event of patient with stable angina pectoris.Methods Two hundred and forty-seven patients with stable angina pectoris (defined as 50％ stenosis in any coronary vessel) were selected as our subjects and they all were followed up for 2 years.Plasma MPO and hsCRP concentrations were measured.The major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs),including death,myocardial infarction and stroke,occurred in patients were recorded.Results All patients were divided into high MPO group (84 cases and plasma MPO concentrations over 320 mg/L) and low MPO group (163 cases,plasma MPO concentrations less than 320 mg/L).Compared with patients in low MPO group,the risk of occurring MACEs in high MPO group was higher(HR =1.67,95％ CI =1.32-2.57,P ＜ 0.05).There was positive correlation between plasma MPO and hsCRP concentrations (r =0.132,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion MPO level may serve as a better prediction index for adverse cardiovascular events of patients with Stable angina pectorisindependently.MPO has relationship with hsCRP concentrations.

Objective To investigate the effects of ACEI combined with beta-blocker on cardiac function in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF)and explore its action mechanisms.Methods 60 CHF patients were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into the two groups:conventional treatment group(group A,n =30),ACEI combined with beta-blocker treatment group (group B,n =30).The LVEF,LVEDD,MMP-9,and hsCRP were recorded after treatment.The expression of MMP-9 was measured by ELISA.The level of serum hs-CRP was measured by latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay.Results The improvement of LVEF and LVEDD in B group [(63.21 ± 6.09) ％,(58.42 ± 5.73)mm] were better than those in A group [(41.13 ± 3.67) ％,(66.24 ± 4.24) mm] (t =7.62,6.54,P ＜ 0.01).The expressions of MMP-9 and hs-CRP in group B [(1.31 ± 0.24) ng/ml,(6.34 ± 0.58) mg/L] were significantly lower than those in A group[(2.23 ±0.39) ng/mL,(8.31 ±0.74) mg/L] (t =6.82,7.03,P ＜0.01).The total effective rate in A group was 36.7％,which was significantly lower than 73.3％ in B group(x2 =6.90,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The cardiac function was improved by ACEI combined with beta-blocker treatment in CHF patients.The downregulation of MMP-9 and hs-CRP may play a key role in the effective ACEI combined with beta-blocker treatment.

Objective To investigate the change of serum C-reactive protein(CRP) levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI) and ACI with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS), and the relationship between serum CRP levels and incidence of MODS.Methods The serum CRP levels of 30 normal healthy people and 82 patients with ACI were detected by immune transmission turbidity method. The data from the patients with lacunar cerebral infarction(LCI), acute simple cerebral infarction(PACI) and ACI with MODS(ACI+MODS) were compared.Results The levels of serum CRP in patients with ACI significantly increased compared with the controls( P

Objective To investigate the degree of cognitive impairment and its clinical significance of Binswanger's disease(BD),leukoaraiosis(LA) and LA with cerebral infarction(LA+CI).Methods Mini-mental state examination(MMSE) and clinical memory scale (CMS) were used to evaluate the cognitive impairment in 33 patients with BD, 27 patients with LA, 31 patients with LA+CI and 30 healthy controls.Results (1)The scores of MMSE and CMS in BD group, LA group, LA+CI group were significantly lower than those in healthy control group( P

Objective To explore the mechanism of the acute cerebral infarction leading to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) which causes multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and to explore the role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-?) and IL-1? in the mechanism from SIRS to MODS.Methods 68 cases of acute cerebral infarction (ACI) were divided into three groups. They were 36 cases of simple acute cerebral infarction (SACI group), 32 cases accompanied with SIRS (SIRS group) and 24 cases accompanied with MODS (MODS group). Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to measure serum TNF-? and IL-1? contents at different time after ACI and compared with 28 healthy persons.Results (1) 47.06% of the 68 cases were accompanied with SIRS, of whom 75.00% were accompanied with MODS.(2) The serum TNF-? and IL-1? levels were the highest in MODS group, next in SIRS group, then in SACI group, the lowest in control group. The differences were significant among 4 groups (all P

Osteopontin (OPN), a phosphorylated and glycosylated protein, is a prominent matricellular component of the extracellular matrix of mineralized tissues of bones and teeth, in which they can regulate the formation and growth of hydroxyapatite crystals and influence a variety of cell activities. Recent studies have reported that the expression of OPN is not only correlated with bone formation and bone resorption but also with tumor aggression and metastasis in several types of human cancer, and OPN is even considered to be an index for the diagnosis and prognosis of tumor. The roles of OPN in angiogenesis were also reviewed.
