1.Mirror syndrome or preeclampsia?
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2008;11(2):82-85
Objective To study the relationship among hydrops fetalis(over 28 gestational weeks),Mirror syndrome and preeclampsia(PE). Methods Clinical data of 13 cases of hydrops fetalis were analyzed and relative publications were reviewed. Results Eight out of the 13 cases were diagnosed as PE,and 5 were Mirror syndrome.Serious maternal complications occurred in all cases with either Mirror syndrome or PE. ConclusionsFetaland placental hydrops was closely related with maternal symptoms.Clinicians should be aware of this condition and detect Mirror syndrome in time so as to prevent its progress to PE.However,the pathogenic mechanism remains to be fully elucidated.More attention should be paid to both mothers and the hydrops fetalis.
2.A novel single-sided groove target release biodegradable stent inhibits coronary artery intimal hyperplasia
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2017;21(26):4222-4227
BACKGROUND: Theoretically, a novel single-sided groove target release biodegradable stent can avoid drug-induced inflammation of the local vessel wall, reduce drug dose, decrease the likelihood of thrombosis, and relieve stenosis.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of the novel single-sided groove target release biodegradable stent on intimal hyperplasia in a healthy porcine coronary artery model.METHODS: Eighteen healthy pigs were randomly divided into three groups, bare metal stent group, Firebird metal stent group and Firehawk stent group, which were implanted with L605 cobalt chromium alloy bare metal stents and L605 cobalt chromium alloy non-biodegradable rapamycin-eluting stent and L605 cobalt chromium alloy biodegradable rapamycin-eluting stent, respectively. Two same stents were implanted into the left anterior descending artery and the right coronary artery of each pig, respectively. After 1 and 3 months of follow-up, coronary angiography was performed,and the pigs were killed to take coronary artery samples for detection of intima hyperplasia.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 1 and 3 months after stent implantation, no stenosis, thrombosis and aneurysm occurred in the three groups shown by the coronary angiography; the lumen loss was significantly lower in the Firebird metal stent group and Firehawk stent group than the bare metal stent group (P < 0.05), while there was no difference between the Firebird metal stent group and Firehawk stent group. Histopatologically, there was no coronary arterial tissue necrosis or luminal thrombosis in the three groups. Compared with the bare metal stent group, at 1 and 3 months after stent implantation, the neointimal area and the percentage of stenosis were significantly lower in the Firebird metal stent group and Firehawk stent group (P < 0.05), while the residual lumen area and internal elastic lamina area were significantly higher (P < 0.05). Additionally, there was no significant difference between the Firebird metal stent group and Firehawk stent group. Overall, the Firehawk stent that achieves the same clinical efficacy as the non-biodegradable rapamycin-eluting stent effectively inhibits intimal hyperplasia, and prevents stent restenosis after stent implantation.However, future investigations on the long-term effect are warranted.

Objective To investigate of human esophageal squamous carcinoma cells(Eca-109) in which cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 gene was knocked down by adenovirus delivered siRNA.Methods Based on the plasmid pSUPER cloned with RNA polymerase Ⅲ-dependent promoter HI,the interfering plasmid psiRNA/COX-2 targeting human COX-2 mRNA was constructed,The siRNA/COX-2 fragment was derived from psiRNA/COX-2 digested by Not I and Xho 1.and was cloned into the shuttle plasmid pAdTrack.Then pAdTrack/siRNA/COX-2 was obtained and co transfected into the E.coli strain BJ5183 with the bone plasmid pAdEasy-1,the recombinant adenovirus Ad/siRNA/COX-2 was generated by homologous recombination.Having been packaged and amplified in cells 293,Ad/siRNA/COX-2 was transfected into Eca-109 cells.The PGE2 concentration in the cells culture supernatant was determined by ELISA,and the level of COX-2 mRNA in the cells was tested by real time PCR.Moreover,cell cycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry,and cells growth curve was protracted.Results The recombinant adenovirus Ad/siRNA/COX-2 was successfully constructed.Ninty six hours after Ad/ siRNA/COX 2 transfecting into Eca 109 cells,COX-2 mRNA was reduced by 71.7%,and PGE2 concentration in the cells culture supernatant was decreased by 62.0%.Correspondingly,the growth of cells slowed down.At the same time,the cells in G0-G1 phase was increased by 32.24%,and those in S phase and G2-M phase were reduced by 16.38% and 15.86%.respectively.And cells apoptosis index was increased by 9.19%.Conclusion The adenovirus based-RNAi was capable of knocking down remarkably COX-2 of human esopbageal carcinoma cells,which lead to growth of cells slowing down.

OBJECTIVE:To review the recent advances in analgesics study and summarize the drugs for central sensitization and analgesia model by relating to the latest means and methods of research.DATA SOURCES:The literature on analgesics was retrieved in NCBI database for the related papers published between January 1996 and December 2001, with the key words of "analgesia", "analgesic", and "pain"and language restricted to English. At the same time, papers published in the past two years were retrieved in http:∥www.wanfangdata.com.cn, with the key words of "analgesia", "analgesic" and "ganglioplegic" in Chinese and the language restricted to Chinese.STUDY SELECTION:Totally more than 50 000 research references repeated contents.DATA EXTRACTION: Altogether 100 basic research articles were collected. We selected 15 articles relevant to the research development in analgesic drugs, and excluded 82 review papers with repeated content.expressed by proto-oncogene c-Fos located in the nucleus is a kind of DNA conjugated protein. It can regulate the expression of some pain-related genes. Some studies found that substance P synthesis is likely to play a research: Developing the central sensitization drugs is the orientation of sal root ganglion neurons and model of swallowing response were established.CONCLUSION:By investigating the effects of various new research methods and models on pain, we intended to look for more new drugs, to further study neurotransmitters and the clone of transmitter receptor at the cellular and molecular level so as to find the new effect target of the drugs, and to have a better understanding of the integrity of chronic pain in humans and achieve more breakthroughs in the development of neuroscience research.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of combining acupuncture and physical therapy with drugs on treating Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).Methods Sixty infants with DMD were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group (n =30 in each).Both groups were injected with Bozhi glycopeptide and given levocamitine and fructose sodium diphosphate orally.Moreover,the treatment group was additionally given acupuncture and physical therapy.Before and after 90 days of treatment,the time to walk 10 metres and to climb stairs of 2 metres high was measured,as were the serum creatine phosphate kinase (CPK),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and aspertate aminotransferase (AST) levels of all participants.Results After treatment,the average walking and stair climbing times of both groups were significantly shorter,and those of the treatment group were significantly shorter than those of the control group.Moreover,the average CPK,LDH and AST levels in the treatment group were significantly lower than before treatment and than those of the control group after treatment.There was a significant difference in the overall response rates,with 93% observed in the treatment group and 73% in the control group.Conclusion Combining acupuncture and physical therapy with drugs can significantly increase the mobility and improve the serum CPK,LDH and AST levels of children with DMD.
