1.Sleep disorders after stroke
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2012;(12):935-938
Sleep disorders is a common complication of stroke.It not only affects the somatic rehabilitation and mental health of patients,but also aggavates hypertension and diabetes,and even induces cerebral infarction and recurrence of cerebral hemorrhage.Using polysomnography to conduct nocturnal sleep monitoring for stroke patients with sleep disorders can objectively reflect the sleep quality of the patients.Continuous positive airway pressure treatment may effectively correct sleep disorders and promote functional recovery of the patients.

3.Reversal effect of delavirdine on multidrug resistance-associated protein 2-mediated multidrug resistance
Clinical Medicine of China 2009;25(6):618-622
Objective To study the effect and the possible mechanism of delavirdine on muhidrng resist-ance-aasociated protein 2(MRAP2)-mediated multidrug resistance in LLC/cMOAT cells. Methods MTT assay was used to determine the effects of delavirdine on proliferation of LLC/CMV and LLC/cMOAT cells. The inhibitory effects of vincristine (VCR),cisplatin (DDP),adriamycin (ADM) and etoposide (VP-16) used alone or in combi-nation with delavirdine on the proliferation of LLC/CMV and LLC/cMOAT cells were evaluated by MTT assay. The cell cycle distribution, the apoptosis rate of the cells treated with different concentration of delavirdine and the intra-cellular concentration of ADM were determined by flow cytometry (FCM). Results Delavirdine at the concentration of 4 μmol/L and below showed no significant cytotoxicity to LLC/CMV and LLC/cMOAT cells. The resistance of LLC/cMOAT cells to VCB, VP-16, ADM and DDP were 9.58,1.11,2.98 and 3.96 folds of that of LLC/CMV cells. When 2 μmol/L delavirdine was added, the resistance was 5.21 and 2.55 folds respectively;when 4 μmol/L dela-virdine was edded,the resistance was 7.56 and 3.03 ,while 2,4 μmol/L delavirdine made no significant changes to the chemosensitivity of LLC/CMV cells to VCR and DDP(P>0.05). Cellular cycle analysis demonstrated that 0,6, 12,24 hours after co-cultured with delavirdine the amount of cells at G1 phase increased from(38.92±0.15)% to (56.87±2.23)%,(65.36±2.76)% and (74.77±5.06)%. The cell apoptosis rate increased from 1.77% to 17.45% and 28.52% when treated with delavirdine at 2,4 μmol/L and VCR for 24 h. When treated with 2,4 μmol/L delavirdine, ADM accumulation in LLC/cMOAT cells was enhanced significantly(P<0.05). Conclusion DLV can partially reverse the multidrng resistance of LLC/cMOAT cells, and the reverse effect correlates to the concentration. The possible mechanism may involve the growth arrest at G1, increasing of intracellular drug concen-tration and promoting apoptosis.

Geographic distribution of Polyporus umbellatus was predicted by using distribution records. Based on 42 distribution records from 12 provinces and bioclimatic data (1950-2000), georaphic distribution of P. umbellatus was modeled using Maxent. The results showed thatthe Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis method was used to assess the accuracy of MAXENT model and the area under ROC curve (AUC) value of MAXENT was 0. 960 which suggested that the result of assessment was dependable. The geographic distribution pattern of were divided into three distribution block based on distribution values of 0.5-0.8: small area of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning and Hebei province, the board area of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, the southeast area of Tibet and the most area of Shanxi and Shannxi, the southeast board area of Shannxi, Gansu and Ningxia. Jackknife Test showed that average precipitation in warm seasons had the greatest contribution to the distribution gain of P. umbellatus, followed by mean temperature of driest quarter and annual mean temperature. The object suggests the potential distribution areasof P. umbellatus which is useful for the habitat conservation and introduction of P. umbellatus.

Objective To discuss the intervention effects and mechanisms for Rapamycin on renal interstitial fibrosis in rats.Methods A total of 72 Wistar male rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,normal group(n =24) ,model group(n =24), treatment group (n =24).The model group and treatment group received adenine 200 mg/kg daily,and the treatment group was also given Rapamycin 5 mg/(kg·d) at the 8th day,the normal group was just given the same amount of normal saline for 6 weeks.In the end of the 2nd,4th and 6th week,8 rats in each group were sacrificed respectively.The expression of hepatocyte growth factor(HGF), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and neutrophils gelatinases related apolipoprotein (NGAL) in each group were observed.The software of image analysis system was used for semi-quantitative analysis.Results HE and Masson staining results showed that the renal tubular were progressive swelling, and changed with interstitial fibrosis,atrophy and even necrosis in model group from 2 weeks to 6 weeks.The pathological changes of kidney were more ease in the treatment group compared with those in model group.Immunohistochemical staining results showed that HGF expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in model group and treatment group at the 2nd week were significantly higher than those of normal group(P <0.05), and were significantly decreased at the 4th week and 6th week (P < 0.05);HGF expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in treatment group were significantly higher than those in model group (P < 0.05).NGAL expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in model group and treatment group at the 2nd week were significantly higher than those in normal group(P <0.05) ,and were significantly decreased at the 4th week and 6th week(P < 0.05);NGAL expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in treatment group were significantly higher than those in model group (P < 0.05).TGF-β expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in model group and treatment group at the 2nd,4th,and 6th week were significantly higher than those in normal group (P <0.05) ,while TGF-β expression levels of renal interstitial tissue in treatment group were significantly lower than those in model group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Rapamycin could improve the rat kidney tissue pathology, relieve renal tubular expansion, and slow progression of renal interstitial fibrosis, and has certain protective effect to the kidney.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of multiplex PCR for rapid identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria. Methods According to MTP40 gene sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, 32kD gene sequence of Mycobacterium and IS6110 insertion sequence gene sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, three specific pairs of primers (PT1-PT2, MT1-MT2 and IS5-IS6) for Mycobacterium were designed, and the target DNA for MTP40, 32kD and IS6110 was 396bp, 506bp and 984bp, respectively. The genome of 92 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinically isolated strains and 5 non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria clinical strains were amplified in the same system, and the results were compared with reference strains. Results Among 92 clinical strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the DNA fragments of 396bp, 506bp and 984bp were found in 90 Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical strains, as well as in the reference strain H37Rv; the sensitivity of multiplex PCR for Mycobacterium tuberculosis was 97.8%, and the specificity was 100.0%. The DNA fragments of 506bp were all found in 5 non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria clinical strains, the sensitivity and specificity for non-tuberculosis Mycobacterium were both 100.0%. Conclusion The multiplex PCR is a rapid, sensitive and specific method for identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria, and it may provide an effective way for clinical diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis Mycobacteria, therefore useful in clinical application.

Objective:To extract the mung bean trypsin inhibitor(MBTI) from mung bean and to study the inhibitory activity of MBTI against proprotein convertases(PCs).Methods: MBTI was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, sequential chromatography of gel filtration,ion exchange,affinity chromatography and HPLC.The high expression strains of 2 PCs,Kexin and Furin,were selected.Kexin and Furin were purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and gel filtration.The inhibitory activity of MBTI against Kexin and Furin was assayed and the inhibitory constants(Ki) of MBTI against the 2 PCs were calculated by Dixon's plot.Results:The purified MBTI showed a single peak on HPLC and a single band on SDS-PAGE.The inhibitory activity of MBTI against Kexin(Ki= 3.9?10~(-9)mol/L) was stronger than that against Furin.Conclusion: MBTI can inhibit both Kexin and Furin,especially Kexin,and also can be an ideal inhibitor against PCs after further modification.
