Background Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)related hypertension.Superoxide anion,produced by NAD(P)H oxidase,plays important roles in hypertension and its complications.Ang Ⅱ infusion increases cerebral NAD(P)H oxidase activity,which is inhibited by angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker(ARB)candesartan and NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor.However,the underlying mechanism of ARB in preventing hypertensive stroke is not elucidated clearly.Objective To investigate the effects of candesartan on the expression of cerebral NAD(P)H oxidase mRNA in salt-loaded stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHRsp).Methods Twelve-week-old salt-loaded SHRsp were treated with candesartan [1.0 mg/(kg?d)],trichlormethiazide [TCM,1.6 mg/(kg?d)] or vehicle(n=12 in each)for 2 weeks.Age-matched salt-loaded WKY rats were served as control(n=12).Blood pressure was measured every week.After two weeks,cerebrums were harvested and 24 h urine was collected.Urinary albumin was examined by ELISA.Cerebral cortex NAD(P)H oxidase subunits(p22phox,p47phox and gp91phox)mRNA expression were assayed by real-time PCR.Results The systolic blood pressure was increased significantly in salt-load SHRsp.Candesartan and TCM reduced SBP to the similar level.Urinary albumin excretion and cerebral cortex NAD(P)H oxidase subunits were markedly higher in salt-loaded SHRsp than those in salt-loaded WKY rats.Incidence of stroke was significantly reduced in candesartan treated group as compared with TCM treated SHRsp(P

Objective To observe the effect of MG132 on the expression of extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMCs) induced by high glucose.Methods RPMCs were isolated,cultured and passaged by trypsin,then identified.The second generation of cultured RPMCs were used in the experiment.RPMCs were divided into normal control group,high glucose (1.5％,2.5％,4.25％) for 24 hours,high glucose (2.5％) for 0,12,24,48 hours,incubated with MG132 (0.5,1,2 μmol/L) for half an hour and then with high glucose (2.5％) for 24 hours.ERK1/2 protein was detected by Western blotting,and CTGF protein in supernatant was detected by ELISA.Results Compared with the control group,the expression of p-ERK1/2 was significantly increased in the groups stimulated by high glucose (P ＜0.01),reached the peak at 24th hour (P ＜ 0.01),and then the expression decreased at 48th hour,but still was higher than that in the normal control group (P ＜ 0.01).CTGF protein expression of RPMCs induced by high glucose increased,in time-and dose-dependent manner (P ＜ 0.05).MG132 could significantly decrease the expression of ERK1/2 and CTGF induced by high glucose (P＜0.05).Conclusions MG132 can decrease the expression of p-ERK1/2 and CTGF in RPMCs induced by high glucose.The ubiquitin proteasome pathway participates in the development of peritoneal fibrosis,and blocking the way may contribute to the prevention of peritoneal fibrosis.

BACKGROUND:Endothelial progenitor cells are recruited into local vascular injury under the injury-induced stimulation, and then differentiate into mature endothelial cells that are thereby involved in angiogenesis and endothelial repair. OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether endothelial progenitor cells can al eviate renal injury and improve renal function of ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R) rats. METHODS:Peripheral blood samples extracted from Sprague-Dawley rats were used to isolate and culture endothelial progenitor cells using density gradient centrifugation. Twenty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to three groups:I/R group, normal control group, and endothelial progenitor cells group. In the I/R and endothelial progenitor cells groups, the right kidney was removed and the renal artery and vein of the left kidney were occluded for 40 minutes to establish I/R models in the rats, and then endothelial progenitor cells (5×109/L, total y 1 mL) or solvent was transplanted via the artery of the left kidney into the left kidney. In the normal control group, the experimental procedure was same as that in the I/R group except for occlusion of the artery and vein of the left kidney. Renal and blood samples from three groups were col ected at day 1 after operation. Peripheral blood CD34 and vascular endoethelial growth factor receptor 2 expressions were determined using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence methods, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were tested, and immunohistochemistry observation was used for CD34 observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the normal control group, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels were significantly increased, and tubulointerstitial CD34 expression was decreased in the I/R group (P<0.05). Endothelial progenitor cells treatment largely decreased the levels of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen, and increased CD34 expression (P<0.05). These findings indicate that transplantation of endothelial progenitor cells contributes to renal protection in I/R rats.

Objective To observe the effect of Xuebijing injection on the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB-1) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods PMCs were isolated from rat colic omentum and the 3rd generation cells were used in the experiment. PMCs were incubated with LPS at different concentrations (1,10,100 mg/L);with LPS (10 mg/L) for 2, 6, 12, 18, 21, 24, 36 h;with Xuebijing injection at different concentrations (2,10,20 g/L) after incubation with LPS (10 mg/L) for 2 h. PMCs in the control group were incubated with medium. HMGB-1 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. TNF-α and HMGB-1 protein in supernatants was detected by ELISA. Results Compared to the control group, the expression of HMGB-1 mRNA and protein was significantly increased in groups stimulated by LPS in a time- and dose-dependent manner (all P<0.05);the expression of TNF-α was increased in the groups stimulated by LPS in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). In the groups stimulated by LPS (10 mg/L), the expression of TNF-α appeared double hump within 36 hours. Compared to LPS (10 mg/L) group, Xuebijing injection significantly inhibited the expression of HMGB-1 and TNF-α (all P<0.05 ) in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusions HMGB-1 as a late mediator of inflammatory responses may play a role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis. Xuebijing injection can reduce peritoneal inflammatory impairment by inhibiting the up-regulation of TNF-α and HMGB-1 induced by LPS.

Objective To summarize the expression of CK19, HBME-land 34βE12 in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid (PCT) and their differential diagnostic value. Methods Clinical data of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid,nodular goiter and paraeareinoma were reviewed. All HE slides were reexamined and immunostains for CK19, HBME-land 34βEI2 were performed in selected case. Staining results were evaluated. Results Those cases typically showed complex papillary structures and interstitial fibrosis, while nuclear features included ground class appearance, grooves and nuclear pseudoinelusion. The positive rates for CKI9, HBME-1 and 34βE12 in PCT were 100.0 %, 89.4 % and 42.6 % respectively, the differences were statistically significant(P <0.01). Conclusion PCT occurs preferentially in the group of middle-aged women. The diagnosis of PCT should be distinguished from other plesiomorphous benign papillary lesions. Combined detection of CK19, HBME-1, 34βE12 can be most helpful for diagnosis for of PCT.

Objective To investigate characteristics of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) secretion and mechanism of aberrant folliculogenesis by the ratio of luteinizing hormone (LH)/follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients. Methods Base on the ratio of LH/FSH,total 95 patients with PCOS were divided into two groups,including 49 cases in higher ratio group (LH/FSH≥2) and 46 cases in normal ratio group (LH/FSH < 2) matched with 62 infertile cases with tubal factor and regular menstruation as control group. Body mass index (BMI) were calculated in all objectives. The serum AMH were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Ovarian sexual hormones,fasting blood glucose, insulin and lipid were measured by chemiluminescence method. The correlation between AMH and metabolic index was analyzed by multilinear regression. Results (1) AMH: the serum level of AMH were (7.2±4. 3) μg/L in higher LH/FSH group, (5. 2±3. 8) μg/L in normal LH/FSH group and (3.7 ±2. 2) μg/L in control group, which all reached significant difference among those 3 groups(P < 0. 01). (2) The correlation between AMH and biological metabolic index: estradiol (E2) was negatively correlated with serum level of AMH in higher LH/FSH ratio group (r = -0. 318). The serum level of AMH were positively correlated with BMI, fasting glucose, homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) in normal LH/FSH ratio group (r = 0. 493,0. 362,0.303). After controlling affect factors, serum levels of AMH were positively correlated with LH/FSH in higher LH/FSH ratio group (r = 0. 301), but negatively correlated with E2 (r = -0. 429). However, in normal LH/FSH group, serum level of AMH was only positively correlated with BMI (r = 0. 428). Conclusion The PCOS patients with higher LH/FSH ratio are primarily caused by hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction, while the PCOS patients with normal LH/FSH ratio are mainly caused by metabolic disorders.

Objective To explore the effect of action research based on group learning in hospice care module for nursing students. Methods 82 students were divided into cooperative learning group (40) and conventional teaching group (42). The cognition and attitude of good death questionnaire was used to evaluate teaching effect before and after teaching of hospice care. After teaching, self-feedback and self-feedback questionnaire were made to evaluate the effect of cooperative learning group. SPSS 17 was used to make comparison of data between groups and within groups, and t test, chi square test or Fisher exact probability 2 were also used . Results There were no difference between two groups of nurses before teaching. The students' cognitive level and attitude in cooperative learning group increased significantly, especially their cognitive level of physiological needs (t=5.398, P=0.001), cognition and attitude of death education in intervention group was higher than control group (t=2.992, P=0.004; t=3.661, P=0.001). Although 95% of the nursing students of the cooperative learning group thought group cooperative studying could improve their interests and cultivated their comprehensive abilities, only 50% could accept this kind of studying methods . Conclusions Action research based on group cooperative studying can improve students' cognitive level and attitude of good death, and it is also good for cultivating their ability of au-tonomous learning, innovation, cooperation, and meanwhile, educational action research is a good way to improve both teaching effect and research ability of teacher staffs, but in practice, students' acceptance of group learning needs to be improved.
