1.New progress of airborne pollen.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2014;28(5):355-358
With the growth of disease incidence in allergic diseases of upper respiratory tract year by year, airborne pollen has been considered the most important cause of the diseases. There is an obvious positive correlation between the concentration of airborne pollen and the symptoms of the diseases. The data is collected which includes environment that patient lives in about the kinds of airborne pollen and their seasonal distribution and latest conditions of the airborne pollen at home and abroad. It is benefit for the further developments of the researches of airborne pollen and has a clinical significance for the prevention, diagnosis and treatments of allergic diseases in our country.

AIM : To investigate the effects of angiotensin II (AngII) in different concentrations and different action times on the rate of apoptosis and expression of apoptosis genes in vascular smooth muscle cells and the influences of fosinopril on it. METHODS : Flow cytometer was used to measure the apoptosis rate and the expression of apoptosis genes (Fas and Bcl 2) induced by AngII in different concentrations and different action times and the influence caused by fosinopril. RESULTS BZ : The rate of apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis genes were induced and increased by AngII with the increase of concentrations and action times compared with that in the control group. The expression of Fas was increased and Bcl 2 was decreased with the increase of the concentrations and action times of AngII in fosinopril group compared with that in the AngII group. CONCLUSION : The apoptosis rate and the expression of apoptosis genes are induced and increased by angiotensin II with the increase of the concentrations and the action times. Fosinopril has the regulation effect on the apoptosis rate and the expression of apoptosis genes in vascular smooth muscle cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of fruit potassium supplement on hypokalemia at in the perioperative period of percutanous coronary intervention(PCI)? Methods Ninety cronary herat disease patients with hypokalemia undergoing PCI during July to December 2011 involved the study? Since admission,the patients were administered with oranges and bananas each 500 g daily until the third day after PCI,on the basis of oral administration of potassium? Serum potassium was assessed in all patients at time points of the day at PCI,the first day and third day after PCI? Results The time range for the patients to take potassium supplement by eating fruits was 12-45 hours,averaged(28?84 ± 11?70)hours? The serum potassium levels on days 1 and 3 were significantly higher than that on the day for the admission(P < 0?05 for both)and even maintained at the normal level? Conclusion The oral complement of potassium by eating bananas and oranges can help patients to correct and prevent hypokalemia during the perioperative period of PCI?

Objective To investigate the methods of treating great saphenous varicosity by inserting optical fiber straight into EVLT.Methods Wuhan Linyun Laser Therapeutic System was introduced to treat 205 cases (257 limbs)of great saphenous varicosity.Optical fiber instead of blood vessel sheath and catheter was inserted straight into endovenous laser treatment(EVLT)through arteriovenons permanent needle was adopted.Results Operations lasted 35~55 minutes,averaging 45 minutes.Patients were hospitalized for 5~7 days.Postoperative vis- its were followed for 3~12 months,averaging 6 months.Two months after the operation,appraisal according to the curative effect evaluation criteria was carried on.The cure rate for superficial varicosity is 97.3%(250/257),for lower extremities swelling asthenia is 93.7%(150/160),for skin pigmentation is 91.8%(56/61),and for swelling is 90.9%(20/22).10 cases(3.9%)suffered from skin ambustion.9 cases(3.5%)suffered from shank anesthesia and stabbing pain.15 cases(5.8%)suffered from hypodermic tubercle.The patients had not deep venous thrombosis after the operation and the wounds healed well.Conclusion Inserting optical fiber straight into EVLT through arte- riovenous permanent needle brings about more accurate treatment.It can be operated simply,causing small wounds and less pain.

Objective To explore the protective effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation (HR) injury. Method Isolated and cultured rat eardiomyocytes were subjected to 2-hour hypoxia followed by 1 hour reoxygenation to establish model of HR injury. Cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into 4 groups: sham group, HR group, HR + EPO-treated group (EPO 10 U/ml), and HR + EPO + UO126-treated group (U0126 10?mol/L). The concentration of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in culture medium was detected by automatic biochemical analyzer; viability of eardiomyocytes was measured by MTT assay; apoptosis ratio was determined by TUNEL technology and Annexin-V-FITC with flow cytometer (FCM); level of extracellular signal- regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK_(1/2)) and phospho-ERK_(1/2) were measured by Western-blot analysis. Results EPO significantly decreased the leakage of LDH, enhanced activity, reduced apoptosis ratio, and increased level of phospho-ERK_(1/2).However, the effects were blocked by U0126, an inhibitor of MAPK. Conclusions EPO has the protective effects on cardiomyocytes against HR injury possibly via the mechanism of activation of ERK_(1/2) and inhibition of apoptosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate effects of pamidronate on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts of rats in vitro.MethodsOsteoblasts isolated from newborn rat calvaria were treated with various concentrations of pamidronate, the proliferation of osteoblasts was evaluated with the method of methyl thiazole tetrazolium (MTT) and activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in medium was measured with kit of ALP detecting.ResultsThe proliferation of osteoblasts increased under the stimulation of Pamidronate range 10-6-M-10-12 M(P<0.05), but was inhibited at the concentration of high level (10-4 M). The activity of ALP decreased in the experiment.ConclusionPamidronate can act on the osteoblasts directly and increase the proliferation of bone cells, but inhibit the differentiation of the same cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of capsaicin on the invasion ability of human large cell carcinoma NCI-H460 and the expressions of E-cadherin and Snail;To discuss the possible mechanisms of anti-non-small cell lung cancer.Methods NCI-H460 cells were cultured in vitro and treated with capsaicin at various concentrations, and no capsacin-treated group was set as control group. Effects of capsaicin on NCI-H460 apoptosis, its invasion ability, and the changes in protein expressions of E-cadherin and Snail were evaluated by Hoechst33342 nuclear staining assay, Transwell chamber invasion assay, and Western blot respectively. Results Compared with the control group, Hoechst33342 nuclear staining assay showed that capsaicin could induce NCI-H460 cell apoptosis (P<0.05);Transwell invasion in vitro results showed that capsaicin could significantly inhibit invasion of penetrating cells (P<0.05);Western blot analysis showed that E-cadherin expression level was significantly elevated and snail expression level significantly decreased (P<0.05).Conclusion Capsaicin can induce NCI-H460 cell apoptosis. Decrease the Snail expression and stimulate E-cadherin expression so as to inhibit the invasion ability of NCI-H460, which may be one of its mechanisms of anti-non-small cell lung cancer.
