OBJECTIVE:To study the current situation and developing trend of the antidiabetics used in Guangdong re?gion.METHODS:The antidiabetics used in44hospitals in Guangdong region during the period2000～2003were analysed concerning the kinds of drug,sum of money for consumption and frequency of drug use.RESULTS:The sum of money for consumption of antidiabetics increased year by year so did its proportion in sum of money for consumption of total drug.Among them,consumption of insulin increased very quickly and oral antidiabetics assumed a tendency of increase as well.CONCLUSI_ ON:The variety of insulin is stable and new oral antidiabetics is going into market occasionally in this region,but frequency of use is primary to sulfonylurea,biguanides and glycosidase-inhibitors.

Objective Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) has been identified to regulate DNA methylation, histone acetylation, and gene post-transcriptional regulation in kinds of diseases, including tumorigenesis, obesity and so on.Therefore, lncRNAs might be the potential targets of mesangial cells proliferation.Methods Mesangial cells were exposed to suitable concentration of TGF-β through cell proliferation assay;then the lncRNAs expression levels were detected by microarray in experimental group and control group separately;finally the differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified by RT-PCR;meanwhile, and the expression levels of target genes were also detected by RT-PCR.Results Cell viability assay confirmed that 10 ng/ml TGF-β could promote mesangial cell proliferation significantly.Totally, over 30 000 lncRNAs were detected in TGF-β treated MCs and control group cells separately.Compared to the control group, 5550 lncRNAs differentially expressed in TGF-β treated MCs, including 119 up-regulated and 147 down-regulated over 2 fold.RT-PCR results appeared that uc.60, MRAK079149, MRAK029456, XR_005507, XR_007641, uc.14, and uc.412 were significantly up-regulated in TGF-β treated MCs, and BC088254, DQ402472, BC098733, BC158832,BC098746 were stably down-regulated.Compared to the control group, the mRNA expression levels of AATF and NEK were increased in the TGF-β treated mesangial cells (P ＜ 0.05).AATF and NEK were downstream target genes of uc.412 and MRAK079149 respectively.Conclusion The differential expression of long noncoding RNAs presents in the experimental mesangial cells proliferation induced by TGF-β.

Objective To investigate the role of vitamin D receptor (VDR) in the protection of bufalin on podocyte injury induced by adriamycin (ADR).Methods (1) In vitro:the toxic effect of different concentrations of bufalin (10-9,10-8,10-7,104 mol/L) on podocyte was evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test;Annexin V-FITC and RT-PCR were utilized for podocyte apoptosis and VDR mRNA level respectively.Western blotting was used to analyze the protein expression of VDR and nephrin.SiRNA intervene was also applied to evaluate the role of VDR in bufalin's protective effect on podocyte injury induced by ADR.(2) In vitro:24 SD rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group,ADR group and ADR+bufalin group.TUNEL assay was applied to detect the apoptosis of podocytes in the kidney.Immunofluorescence and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were applied to analyze the expression of VDR and the ultrastructure of the glomerulus.Results Bufalin concentration lower than 10-7 mol/L had no toxicity on normal podocyte.Bufalin reduced the urinary protein excretion (P ＜ 0.05),alleviated the removal of podocyte foot processes and attenuated the changes in nephrin expression in the glomerulus of the adriamycin (ADR) rats (P ＜ 0.05).Bufalin notably inhibited the down-regulation of VDR in protein levels on the glomerulus of the ADR rats.Additionally,bufalin inhibited the down-regulation of VDR in both mRNA levels and protein levels (P ＜ 0.05),nephrin protein expression (P＜ 0.05),and apoptosis induced by ADR in cultured podocytes.Additionally,VDR specific siRNA intervene abolished the protective effect of bufalin in ADR-induced podocyte injury.Conclusion Bufalin can alleviate ADR-induced podocyte injury via enhancing VDR expression.

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) proliferation is the critical pathological process of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Recent researches indicate that the traditional Chinese medicine curcuma zedoary (E’zhu) can inhibit VSMCs proliferation, with a potential value in preventing and treating ISR. The major ac-tive components of curcuma zedoary are curcuma and β-elemene. The underlying mechanisms involve the inhibition of hemeoxygen-ase-1 expression, blockade of extracellular signal-regulated ki-nase – MAPK and Akt pathways, and subsequent cell cycle ar-rest. This article reviews the recent progress on curcuma zedoary extracts regulating VSMCs proliferation in ISR.

Objective:To observe the effect of Radix Paeoniae Bubra(RPB)on NADPH oxidase p22phox,monocyte chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1)mRNA expression and neointimal hyperplasia after carotid artery balloon injury in cholesterol-fed rabbits.Methods:The rabbit model of carotid balloon injury was established adopting Clowes method,and treated with extract of RPB.Component of neointima and expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)and macrophage was determined by immunochemical stain.The collagen of typeⅠwas detected by special staining for blood vessels and the area of neointima was measured by image assay system.Expression of NADPH oxidase p22phox mRNA,MCP-1 mRNA was detected by in situ hybridization and transcription-polymerase chain reaction.Results:RPB can attenuate the neointima area and proliferation of collagen typeⅠinduced by balloon-injury,remarkable prevent the formation of restenosi,and down-regulate expression of NADPH oxidase p22 and MCP-1mRNA significantly and decrease the degree of macrophages infiltration especially in vessel wall of injuring carotid artery.Conclusions:RPB inhibited NADPH oxidase P22Phox and MCP-1 mRNA expression,and modestly reduced neointimal hyperplasia,which might be partly attributed to its antioxidant and inflammatory effects.

Based on the principle of binocular stereopsis, three-dimensional reconstruction of the nucleus isthmus (NI) in the frog (Rana nigromaculata) has been realized by using a microcomputer system. The histological techniques used were somewhat different from conventional ones in that two pin holes, which were regarded as fiducial points to ensure an accurate alignment of the outlines of microstructures in the serial sections during three-dimensional computer reconstructing, were made in the tissue block with a micropipette before it was cut. All operations such as collection of outline-data of the microstructures, data processing and drawing output were all under control of the software. Three-dimensional morphology of NI and its location in the midbrain have been demonstrated by the stereopairs. Its dimensions measured on the basis of the reconstruction is 500 (caudorostal)?810 (dorsoventral)?810 (mediolateral)?m. The significance of three-dimensional computer reconstruction for accurately measuring the dimensions of NI and other biological microstructures and for the study of histological morphology are discussed.
