Objective To examine the expression change of HIF-1α and VEGF in protein levels and the corelation of them in Q8C939 cell line under chemical hypoxia induced by CoCl2 in vitro. Methods ELISA and immunohistochemical technique were used to examine the change of VEGF and HIF-1α protein level in QBC-939 line in different concentrations (200, 150, 100, 50, 0 μmol/L) of COCl2 and different periods (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h) in hypoxia. Results CoCl2 can up-regulate the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF at least partly in a dose and time dependent pattern. ELISA demonstrated that the level of VEGF protein in different concentrations and different hypoxia periods, the result showed that the VEGF protein was in different concentration groups over contrast group (P<0.05). The VEGF protein also increased continuously with the growing of hypoxia time (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical detection of concentrations of different groups, HIF-1α, VEGF protein in the average gray compared with the control group was different(P<0.05). Different time periods of hypoxia HIF-1α, VEGF protein in the average gray, any two group comparisons have difference (P<0.05). Different concentrations, the normal control group, different time period HIF-1α and VEGF protein expression of relevance were analyzed. The correlation coefficient was 0.830, P <0.01, 0.909, P <0.01. Conclusion In QBC939 cell line of hypoxia, there is up-regulation HIF-1α and VEGF.HIF-1α regulated the expression of VEGF.

This article was aimed to study the therapeutic effect of Chinese medicine Dai-Xie-A n (DXA) granules a-mong aging rats of metabolic syndrome (MS) in order to evaluate relative indicators and the pathophysiological role in neurons and microvascular injury among aging MS rats. Aging MS rat model was established by feeding high-fat diet and the established model was evaluated. Under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, metabol-ic indexes, such as general state of health, glycolipid metabolism, insulin sensitivity, were explored in order to ob-serve effects on brain neurons and microvascular injury among aging MS rats. The results showed that DXA granules can improve glycolipid metabolism among aging MS rats, decrease TC, TG, TC/HDL, decrease the level of blood sug-ar and serum insulin, improve insulin resistance, decrease abdominal fat accumulation, reduce neuronal apoptosis, and increase microvascular angiogenesis. These effects are similar to rosiglitazone. It was concluded that DXA gran-ules can ameliorate glycolipid disorders, protect brain neurons and microvascular injury of aging MS rats.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope for bladder calculi. Methods From March 2003 to May 2007, 32 patients with bladder calculi were treated by transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope. Results The operation was completed in all the patients without conversion to open surgery. Transurethral prostatectomy (TURP) was carried out on 22 patients who were complicated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Four patients received cystotrachelotomy because of bladder-neck contracture, and 4 underwent dilation of the urethra owning to urethral stenosis. Simple pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy was performed on two patients. The operation time was 25 to 90 minutes with a mean of (45?25) minutes. No patient had residual stones or perforation of bladder. One patient developed urethral stenosis after the operation. Conclusions Transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope is a safe, less traumatic treatment for patients with bladder calculi with few complications. The method is especially suitable for patients with BPH.

ConclusionThe effect of dezocine in intravenous analgesia for postoperative pain could be as satisfaction as that of sufentainyl.

BACKGROUND: Unilateral spinal epidural anesthesia with ropivacaine can reduce the perioperative pain in the elderly undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty, but choosing which concentration of small dose hypobaric ropivacaine is an issue of concern.OBJECTIVE: To explore the anesthetic and analgesic effects of unilateral spinal epidural anesthesia with different concentrations of low dose hypobaric ropivacaine in senile knee or hip replacement.METHODS: Ninety patients undergoing knee or hip replacement in the Henan Province Hospital of TCM from August 2014 to December 2015 were enrolled, and randomized into 0.15%, 0.5% and 0.25% ropivacaine groups (n=30 per group), followed by spinal epidural anesthesia at L3-4 or L2-3 lumbar interspace, respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The order of the flat subsided time and motor block recovery time was as follows:0.15% ropivacaine group < 0.25% ropivacaine group < 0.5% ropivacaine group; the onset time of motor block was longest in the 0.25% ropivacaine group, followed by 0.5% ropivacaine group, and shortest in the 0.15% ropivacaine group (all P < 0.05). (2) The order of the visual analogue scale scores at 1, 5, and 10 hours after anesthesia and 24 hours postoperatively was as follows: 0.5% ropivacaine group < 0.25% ropivacaine group < 0.15% ropivacaine group (P < 0.05). (3) The change levels of heart rate and blood pressure were highest in the 0.5% ropivacaine group, followed by 0.15% ropivacaine group, and lowest in the 0.25% ropivacaine group. (4) The incidence of adverse events was highest in the 0.5% ropivacaine group, followed by 0.15% ropivacaine group, and lowest in the 0.25% ropivacaine group (P < 0.05). (5) To conclude, 3 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine exhibits desired anesthetic effect.

BACKGROUND:Human leukocyte antigen (HLA), the major histocompatibility complex of human, plays an important function in the transplant rejection. Decreasing the expression of HLA wil prolong the survival time of transplants.
OBJECTIVE:To design smal interfering RNA (siRNA) of HLA-A2 and to detect the effect of siRNA-HLA-A2 on the expression of HLA-A2.
METHODS:Four kinds of siRNA-HLA-A2 domains were designed, and recombinant lentivirus expression vector were formed. The 293T cells, highly expressing HLA-A2, were infected in vitro. Then the knockout efficacy of four domains was detected to select the highly efficient siRNA-HLA-A2 target sequences. The human embryo lung fibroblasts were cultured in vitro and infected with the lentivirus carrying the target sequence. The infecting efficiency of LV-siRNA-HLA-A2 was observed under the fluorescence microscope and the silence function of this siRNA in human embryo lung fibroblasts was detected by western blot analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:According to the mRNA sequence of HLA-A2 in Genbank, three siRNAs were designed and synthesized. In vitro, the over expression of HLA-A2 in 293K cells was successful y silenced. The HLA-A2 expression in human embryo lung fibroblasts was also efficiently silenced after the human embryo lung fibroblasts were infected by the highly efficient siRNA of HLA-A2. The efficacy was up to 80%.

Objective To study the relationship between expression of multidrug resistant 1 ( MDR1) gene encoded P-glycoprotein ( P-gp) and multidrug resistance relation protein ( MRP) in ulcerative colitis and the disease behavior. Methods Sections of endoscopic biopsy samples from patients with ulcerative colitis were studied by immunohistochemistry with monoclonal antibody of MDR1 gene encoded P-gp and MRP. Results Expressions of MDR1 gene encoded P-gp and MRP in the 12th month and 18th month of ulcerative colitis were 40. 5% , 45.9% , 48. 6% and 51.4% , respectively, which were all significantly higher than those of early phase ( P < 0.05). P-gp and MRP expressions in active stage and remission stage of ulcerative colitis were 36.4% , 18. 6% , 46. 1% and 25.4% , respectively, which was significantly different between the two stages (P < 0.05 ). At active stage of ulcerative colitis there was no significant difference in expressions of P-gp and MRP among mild, moderate and severe patients (P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion Examination of P-gp and MRP expressions is feasible and dependable in presenting evidence of drug insistence. However, it is not suitable to be an indicator of severity because of its poor differentiation ability in active stage.
