Oral anticoagulants are important for preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation.Compared with the traditional oral anticoagulant warfarin,the novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have the characteristics of high efficiency,safety,and no need to monitor coagulation function.However,current clinical reports have showed that the dose is usually low when NOACs were used for preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation.Its main reason may be associated with the risk avoidance and the difference in doctor and patient preferences.The analysis from the aspects of safety and effectiveness,the risk of ischemic stroke or systemic embolism is lower when the dose of NOACs is relatively high,and the risk of hemorrhage is lower when the dose of NOACs is relatively lower.Given the differences between the incidences of different events,the disability rate and the mortality rate,the patient with atrial fibrillation are more suitable for using high-dose drug.When choosing a specific dose,taking into account the specificity,the appropriate dose,intensity,and dosing regimen should be given according to the guideline recommendations,appropriate reference to renal function and patient preferences,and individual differences in order to obtain the best clinical efficacy..

LRRC4, a novel member of LRR (leucine-rich repeat) superfamily, is cloned by expressed sequence tag (EST)-mediated positional cloning strategy combined with 5′-RACE technology. Normal expression of LRRC4 is highly specific for brain, whereas absent or significantly down-regulated in primary tumors including glioma, meningioma and pituitary adenoma. LRRC4 is a functional gene in neural development and axon growth, and associated with glioma grade progression. LRRC4 expression is gradually reduced, even absent accompany with glioma grade increase. Absent expression of LRRC4 is involved in the late event of malignant glioma progression.The reexpression of LRRC4 can decrease a series of growth factors/neurotrophic factors (IGF, EGF, PDGF, CNTF, bFGF,GDNF and BDNF) or receptors gene expression to regulate RTK-mediated many signaling transduction pathway, such as K-Ras/c-Raf/ERK/MAPK, PI-3K/AKT/NF-?B, p70S6/PKC, STAT3 and JNK2/c-Jun/mp53, which block U251 cells in late phase of G1 to inhibit glioma cells proliferation and invasion. This inhibitory effect of LRRC4 is dependent on its LRR domain. LRRC4 induces glioma cells to differentiate into astrocyte-like cells more than apoptosis.

BACKGROUND:Heat shock proteins have unique biological characteristics, and exploration of such proteins expressed in the myocardium under exercise stress has important value.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the studies about the expression of myocardial heat shock proteins under stress condition, and analyze the expression characteristics of myocardial heat shock proteins under different stress conditions.
METHODA computer-based online retrieval was performed to find articles about the production, classification and function of heat shock proteins, as wel as the expression of myocardial heat shock proteins published from January 1991 to January 2014 in PubMed database and Wanfang databases. The key words were“heat shock protein;myocardium;exercise stress”in English and Chinese. Final y 48 relevant articles were summarized.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Heat shock proteins have the immune synergy effect. Researches show that, exercise training triggers the expression of myocardial heat shock protein. Acute exercise stress leads to a variety of physiological and biochemical changes, accordingly myocardial heat shock protein wil make the corresponding expression and protect myocardial cells. Low-intensity exercise can increase the expression level of heat shock protein 72, and inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis. High-intensity exercise reduces the expression of heat shock protein 72, which can not effectively inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis and is not conducive to the myocardial protective effect. The expression of heat shock protein under moderate-intensity exercise remains controversial. Exercise-induced expression of heat shock protein may have protection effect against damage induced by exercise, moderate exercise activities play an important role in enhancing myocardial function and preventing myocardial injury.

Objective As a classical approach for hyperthermic ablation,microwave ablation (MWA) has been widely used in the treatment of tumors that cannot be removed by traditional surgery.MWA devitalizes the neighboring tissue and kills tumor cells by thermal diffusion.In the last two decades,this technique has been improved for treating malignant bone tumor in our institute.In situ ablation has already replaced en bloc resection and achieved satisfactory treatment outcomes.This study explores whether tumor cell death induced by MWA would cause the release of immunogenic tumor antigens and tumor-specific immune responses.Methods Three models of MWA were established using osteosarcoma cell lines from the mouse,rat,and human,respectively.The expression of immunogenic molecules was measured during in vitro and in situ ablation with different ablation time and group design.Results The injection of tumor vaccines made from tumor cells or supernatant treated with in vitro ablation resulted in substantial inhibition of tumor cell growth in tumor-bearing animal models.The CDs + T cells induced by vaccines played a key role in the process.The effector cells released cytokines,IFN-γand TNF-α,to inhibit tumor cell growth and also trigger Fas/FasL-mediated apoptosis.Conclusions MWA-treated osteosarcoma cells can be used to induce specific antitumor immunogenic effects.Therefore,in situ MWA combined with immunotherapy provides an alternative treatment method for patients who have trouble due to their insensitivity to chemotherapy.
