Chinese Journal of cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine 2015;24(3):273-276
Objective:To explore the correlation between lipid metabolism and coronary atherosclerosis in advanced aged patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) .Methods:A total of 95 advanced aged patients ,who were suspec-ted CHD and received coronary angiography (CAG) in our hospital from Dec 2010 to Dec 2013 ,were selected .Ac-cording to CAG results ,the 95 patients were divided into CHD group (n=43) and non-CHD group (n=52) .Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed ,and the correlations between blood lipids and coronary atherosclerosis were analyzed .Results:Compared with non-CHD group , the ratio of low density lipoprotein cholesterol to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C/HDL-C) [ (2.01 ± 0.65) vs .(2.38 ± 0.92) , P=0.024] significantly rose in CHD group .In CHD group ,number of diseased coronary vessel was positively correlated with triglyceride (TG) level ,LDL-C/HDL-C ,TG/HDL-C and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) , r=0.183~0.256 (P<0.05 all) ,and inversely correlated with HDL-C level (r= -0.243 ,P<0.05);coronary stenosis degree was positively correlated with LDL-C/HDL-C ,TG/HDL-C and AIP (r=0.225~0.331 ,P<0.05) ,and inversely correlated with HDL-C level (r= -0.261 ,P<0.05) .In CHD group ,total Gensini score was positively correlated with blood lipid indexes (r=0.068~0.201 ,P<0.05 or <0.01) and inversely correlated with HDL-C level (r= -0.138 ,P<0.01) .Con-clusion:Elevated plasma HDL-C level can delay progression of coronary heart disease in advanced aged patients with coronary heart disease .LDL-C/HDL-C and AIP are indexes evaluating severity and risk of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with coronary heart disease .
2.Tripchlorolide activates p-ERK and induces autophagy in lung cancer A549 cells
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2016;32(9):1551-1555
AIM: To investigate the effects of tripchlorolide (TP) on proliferation and autophagy of human lung cancer A549 cells, and explore its mechanism.METHODS: MTT assay was performed to analyze the effect of TP on the viability of human lung cancer A549 cells.The A549 cells were treated with TP, and their autophagy was observed un-der the fluorescence microscope through acridine orange staining.Green fluorescence spots were observed by fluorescence microscopy through GFP-LC3 plasmid transfection experiment.The levels of LC3 and p-ERK in the A549 cells after TP treatment were determined by Western blot.RESULTS: The viability of human lung cancer A549 cells was significantly inhibited by TP in a dose-time dependent manner (P <0.05).The number of the intracellular acidic follicles dyed with bright red fluorescence was significantly increased after TP treatment in A549 cells.The number of green dot-like con-gregate autophagosomes in cell cytoplasm was significantly increased after TP treatment in the A549 cells transfected with GFP-LC3 plasmid, while the normal treatment only induced a few cells with autophagosome formation.At the same time, we did not observe the dot-like congregate autophagosomes after TP treatment in the A549 cells transfected with GFP-control plasmid.Compared with control group, the expression of LC3-II protein was up-regulated in A549 cells after TP treatment (P <0.01).Furthermore, treatment with TP in A549 cells for 48 h also led to a significant upregulation of phosphorylated form of ERK (P <0.01).In contrast, no significant change in the levels of total ERK protein was observed.Compared with 100 nmol/L TP group, TP +3-MA group down-regulated the protein levels of LC3-II (P <0.01) and p-ERK (P <0.01) in the A549 cells.CONCLUSION: TP significantly inhibits the growth of A549 lung cancer cells and induces the
autophagy, which may be correlated with upregulation of p-ERK protein.

International Eye Science 2016;16(7):1366-1368
AIM: To investigate clinical efficacy of two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin) for acute retinal necrosis syndrome.
METHODS: Thirty patients (40 eyes) with acute retinal necrosis syndrome in our hospital were randomly divided into group A and B. Group A was treated with acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, and group B was given ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin. Clinical effects in the two groups were observed and compared.
RESULTS: After treatment, the overall response rate in group B (90%) was obviously higher than that in group A (70%), both of two regimens were effective, without significant difference (P>0. 05). There was no significant difference on the pre - treatment visual acuity between the two groups (P>0. 05). After different treatments, the visual acuity in group B was ≥0. 5 in 12 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 4 eyes, 0. 02 ≤ and < 0. 1 in 3 eyes, and no photosensitive in 1 eye. The visual acuity in group A was≥0. 5 in 9 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 3 eyes, 0. 02≤and<0. 1 in 6 eyes, and no photosensitive in 2 eyes. The recovery of visual acuity in group B was obviously better than that in A group ( P < 0. 05). The incidence of complications such as retinal tear, herpes, mouth ulcers, chickenpox, viral encephalitis and central nervous system diseases in group B (10%) was significantly lower than that in A group (35%,P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin ) both have positive therapeutic effect, but the latter can better restore visual acuity and decrease the complications.
