Objective To evaluate the role of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in attenuation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by sufentanil postconditioning in rats.Methods Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 14-15 weeks,weighing 350-420 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =15 each):sham operation group (group S),group I/R,cyclosporin A group (group CP) and sufentanil postconditioning group (group SP).Myocardial I/R was produced by occlusion of left anterior descending branch of coronary artcry for 30 min followed by reperfusion.In groups CP and SP,cyclosporin A 5 mg/kg and sufentanil 1 μg/kg were injected via the jugular vein at 5 min before reperfusion respectively,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected in group I/R.At 10 min of reperfusion,hearts were excised,the myocardial mitochondria were immediately isolated and the activity of mPTP was measured by spectrophotometry.MAP and HR were recorded at 30 min of equilibration,at 30 min of ischemia and at 120 min of reperfusion and rate-pressure product (RPP) was calculated.Arterial blood samples were obtained at 120 min of reperfusion for determination of the plasma cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ) concentration.The animals were then sacrificed for determination of infarct size (IS) and area at risk (AAR),and IS/AAR was calculated.The mitochondrial ultra-structure was examined with electron microscope.Results Compared with group S,the mPTP activity and plasma cTnI concentration were significantly increased,and MAP and RPP were significantly decreased in the other three groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group I/R,the mPTP activity,plasma cTnI concentration and IS/ARR were significantly decreased in groups CP and SP,and MAP was significantly increased in group CP (P < 0.05).Compared with group CP,MAP was significantly decreased (P < 0.05),while no significant change was found in the other indexes in group SP (P >0.05).Significant mitochondrial swelling,and disruption and disappearance of cristae were showed in I/R group.The mitochondrial structure was more complete in CP and SP groups than that in group I/R,and the disrupted cristae were found in a small number of mitochondria in CP and SP groups.Conclusion The mechanism by which sufentanil postconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury is related to inhibition of mPTP opening in rats.

Hyperhomocysteinemia, which is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis, may cause aberrant methylation and dysregulation of gene expression, but the characteristics of the aberrant methylation and its key links involved in its pathogenic mechanisms are still poorly understood. The effect of hyperhomocysteine on DNA methylation in vascular smooth muscle cells, its characteristics and the underlying mechanism of Hcy-induced changing in DNA methylation patterns were investigated. Clinical relevant concentrations of homocysteine was added into the cultured vascular smooth muscle cells of the Homo sapien umbilical vein for 24 h. The level of SAM and SAH was detected by HPLC. The activity of SAH Hydrolase was detected by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and Western blotting analysis. The level and patterns of DNA methylation were measured by endogenous C-5 DNA methyltransferase(C-5 MT-ase) activity and capacity of genomic DNA to accept methyl groups and methylation-dependent restriction analysis. The results indicated that an increased Hcy concentration induced elevated SAH, declined SAM and the ratio of SAM/SAH, reduced expression of SAH Hydrolase, but increased activity of C-5MT-ase. The methylation status of gDNA analyzed by methyl-accepting capacity of gDNA uncovered a demethylation process in gDNA, or homocysteine-caused hypomethylation in gDNA.With different methylation-dependent restriction endonucleases, the aberrant demethylation was found to prefer C↓CGG sequences to CpG islands. The impacts of different dosage of Hcy showed that the varied detrimental effects of Hcy could be attributed to different concentrations via different mechanisms. In mild and moderate hyperhomocysteinemia, the Hcy may primarily influence the epigenetic regulation of gene expression through the interference of transferring methyl-group metabolism, while in more higher Hcy concentration, the notorious impacts may be more directly caused via oxidative stress, apoptosis, inflammation etc.

Objective To investigate the present situation of institutes of rehabilitation medicine in Guangxi. Methods From March to July, 2015, all 287 hospitals in Guangxi were investigated with the Human Resource Statistics of Guangxi Rehabilitation Medicine Depart-ment and the Specialist Questionnaire of Guangxi Rehabilitation Medicine Department by E-mail through the local Health and Family Plan-ning Commissions. Results There were 125 rehabilitation medicine departments with 2146 personnels in Guangxi, 0.2 therapists per bed in average. The proportion was 1∶0.725 for rehabilitative physicians to therapists;1∶1.92∶3.14 for senior, intermediate and primary title for physicians;1∶8∶63 for therapists and 1∶5.6∶18.9 for nurses. About 91.3%of the department of rehabilitation medicine was in the tertia-ry hospitals and was able to provide the services of physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, swallowing rehabilitation, cogni-tive rehabilitation, psychological therapy and rehabilitation engineering, and so on. Conclusion Rehabilitation has made a big progress com-pared with that in 2009 in Guangxi, in term of institutes, human resources and the service ability. However, the distribution of institutions and human resources remains unbalanced.

As a widely recognized public health problem as well as prevalent and challenging to modern society, chronic insomnia is involved in wide brain areas (such as prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, and thalamus) and emotion-cognition neuro-circuit. It is closely related to the conditioned hyperarousal and the increased information process and/or the impaired inhibitory ability to withdraw from awaking state. Thus, some specific abnormal mode may exist in the emotion-cognition circuit, which is associated with abnormal cognition load, such as repeated retrieval/intrusion of aversive memories during night. Studies through the combination of multiple techniques including psychology, electrophysiology and neuroimaging methods are needed to further enhance the understanding of chronic insomnia.
