Objective To explore the express of P-selectin in liver-tissue,on the model of HIRI in rats,we explored the pathogenesy of HIRI. Methods 32 female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups randomly ( n = 8 in each group): sham operation group ( group SO ), ischemia 30 min without repe- rfusion group ( group Ⅰ),30 min reperfusion following ischemia 30 min group ( group IR30 min), one hour reperfusion following ischemia 30min group( group IR1h). The model of HIRI was maded by Pringle's hepatic vascular occlusion. The contents of P-selectin in hepatic tissue were measured by kit of SP. Results After ischemia 30 min,the content of P-selectin in hepatic tissue increased less obviously than group SO; After 1 h reperfusion, the content of P-selectin in hepatic tissue vascular endothelial and hepatocyte express more broadly than group SO. Conclusion The content of P-selectin in hepatic tissue was increased gradually in the process of hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury(HIRI) in rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of natriuretic peptide on vascular endothelial function and inflammatory factors of patients with heart failure complicating myocardial infarction.Methods Two hundred and twenty-six patients with heart failure complicating myocardial infarction admitted into Hanzhong Central Hospital from March 2012 to March 2016 were randomly divided into experimental group (n =138) and control group (n =128).Patients in control group were treated with conventional drug,and patients in experimental group were treated with natriuretic peptide based on conventional drug treatment.The vascular endothelial function,contents of NO and eddthelin 1,and inflammatory factors including CRP,IL-6,and TNF-α were detected.Results After 2 weeks of treatment,the flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and NO in experimental group were remarkably higher than those in control group,and eddthelin 1 was significantly lower than those of control group (P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,CRP,IL-6,and TNF-α in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group after treatment for 5 d (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Natriuretic peptide could improve the vascular endothelial function of patients with heart failure complicating myocardial infarction via increasing the content of NO and decreasing content of eddthelin 1,and was benefit to cardiac function by inhibiting release of inflammatory factors.

ABSTRACT:Objective To evaluate the features and related factors of decremental response in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)patients to low-frequency repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS)in proximal nerves.Methods We performed RNS studies in proximal axillary and accessory nerves with recording in deltoid and trapezius mus-cle respectively in 87 ALS patients.Decremental compound muscle action potential (CMAP)and related factors were analyzed prospectively,and abnormal group of decremental response in ALS patients was compared with 39 pa-tients with myasthenia gravis.Results ① Abnormal decremental responses were found in 43.7% and 49.4% of ALS patients with deltoid and trapezius muscle recording respectively.They were found more frequent in trapezius muscle than those of deltoid muscle.② There was no relationship of decremental response with gender,age,onset or course of disease,ALSFRS-r scores,or rate of disease progression in ALS patients.③ There was significant rela-tionship between decremental response and fluctuating muscle weakness.Decremental responses decreased more ob-viously in ALS patients with fluctuating muscle weakness than in those with nonfluctuating muscle weakness.④ Dec-remental responses were greater in patients with myasthenia gravis than that in ALS patients.Conclusion Decre-mental response with proximal muscle recording is not an uncommon feature in ALS patients;therefore,it should not be treated as a criterium to rule out ALS.Abnormal decremental response of trapezius muscle is found more fre-quent than that of deltoid muscle.Decremental response range in patients with myasthenia gravis is significantly lar-ger than that in ALS patients.One should be more careful when diagnosing ALS patients with fluctuating muscle weakness and abnormal decremental response.

Objectives To determine the effects of Matrine (Ma) on signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) 1, 3, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and platelet -derived growth factor (PDGF) in glomerular mesangial cells (MC) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and to explore the protective mechanisms of Ma. Methods Ma were added to cultured glomerular mesangial cells which were exposed to LPS for 12, 24 and 48 hours. Real time polymerase chain reaction were used to determine STAT1, 3, CTGF, PDGF mRNA, The protein expression of STATI, 3 and p-STAT1, 3 were observed by Western blot. Results Compared with the control group, MC proliferation of the LPS group (10μg/ml) significantly increased, which were suppressed in the Ma (320 μg/ml) group (P < 0.01) at 12, 24, 48 hours. The expression of STAT1, 3, CTGF, PDGF mRNA and the levels of p-STAT1 , p-STAT3 protein was significantly increased in MC under LPS medium at 12, 24, 48 hours, which were obviously lower in Ma group than those of the LPS group, especially at 24, 48 hours. Conclusions The protective mechanisms of Matrine is considered to down-regulate the expression of STAT1, 3, CTGF and PDGF.

Objective To study the effect of oxymatrine on p-STAT3 and PIAS3 signaling molecule and it's mRNA expression in the proliferation of the human mesangial cells (HMCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) and to explore their relationship. Methods HMCs were divided into three groups: control group, LPS group and oxymatrine group. HMC proliferation was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Type Ⅳ collagen in the supernatants of the cultured HMCs was detected by ELISA at 12, 24, 48 hours respectively. At the same time, the protein and mRNA expressions of p-STAT3 and PIAS3 were measured by Western blot and real-time quantitative RT-PCR. Results The cell proliferation, the mRNA and protein expression of type Ⅳ collagen, p-STAT3 in LPS group were increased compared with the control group (P<0.01), but they were decreased in oxymatrine group (P < 0.01). The expressions of protein and mRNA of PIAS3 in LPS group were decreased significantly compared with control group (P<0.01), but they were increased in oxymatrine group (P<0.01). Conclusion Oxymatrine can down-regulate the expression of p-STAT3 and up-regulate the expression of PIAS3, which plays an important role in the process of LPS-induced HMCs proliferation.

Objective To explore the impact of combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment on bile leak in hepatic hydatid disease at a high attitude region.Methods The clinical data of 50 patients who underwent combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment were compared with 50 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery alone for hepatic hydatid internal capsule excision surgery.Results In the combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic group,the incidence of biliary fistula after surgery was 15％,the incision infection rate was 13％,the length of hospitalization was (11.6 ± 3.8) days and the postoperative time to take off drain was (14.3 ± 7.9) days.These were significantly better than those in the laparoscopic alone group.The operation time in the former group was (108.2 ± 28.4)min,which was slightly longer than the laparoscopy group.Conclusion The combined laparoscopic and choledochoscopic treatment is a safer therapeutic option in treating hepatic hydatid disease with less trauma,faster recovery and shorter hospital stay than laparoscopic surgery alone in a high attitude region.

OBJECTIVE:To study the antitumor effect of phellinus linteus polysaccharide on sarcoma S180 cells in vivo and in vitro. METHODS:Sarcoma S180 cells in logarithmic growth period were selected,adding into 0(blank control),2,4,8 mg/mL phellinus linteus polysaccharide solution and respectively culturing for 12,24,36,48 h. The in vitro proliferation inhibition rate of cells was determined by MTT method;its apoptotic morphology was observed by fluorescence staining and cell apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. S180 tumor-bearing mice models were established and randomly divided into control group,phellinus linteus polysaccharide high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups(400,200,100 mg/kg),10 in each group. Model mice were in-tragastrically administrated related medicined,once a day,for 12 d. Mice were executed after 24 h of last administration,tumor weight was determined,tumor inhibition rate was calculated. Immunohistochemistry was conducted to detect the tumor suppressor gene PTEN and oncogene C-myc protein expressions in tumor tissue. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,phellinus linteus polysaccharide can increase the proliferation inhibition rate of S180 cells and induce the increase of apoptosis rate(P<0.05 or P<0.01),showing a concentration-time manner. Compared with control group,the tumor inhibition rates in phellinus linteus polysaccharide groups were obviously increased (P<0.01),PTEN protein expressions were strengthened (P<0.05 or P<0.01) and C-myc protein expressions were weakened (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Phellinus linteus polysaccharide shows antitumor ef-fect in vivo and in vitro,which can up-regulate the PTEN,down-regulate C-myc protein expressions.

Objective To Study the effect of thyroid peroxidase-Ab (TPO-Ab) on in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) ending. Methods From March 2011 to October 2013, a total of 378 assisted reproduction cycles in Reproductive Medical Center of Qinghai Provincial People ’s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed in. Experiment group included 69 cycles from patients with positive thyroid peroxidase antibody and normal thyroid function and control group 309 cycles from those with negative thyroid peroxidase antibody and normal thyroid function. Results IVF fertility rate (79.76%) and high quality embryo rate (46.59%) in experiment group were significantly lower than those in control group (84.08%, 54.49% respectively) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05); abortion rate (33.33%) in experiment group was obviously higher than that in control group (16.11%), which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Positive thyroid peroxidase antibody exerts adverse effects on IVF-ET ending since TPO-Ab reduces IVF fertilization rate and high quality embryo rate and increases the rate of abortion.
