Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2016;36(9):144-145,148
Objective To observe and explore the value of combined detection of serum BNP and TnI in patients with acute heart failure(AHF). Methods 60 AHF patients from February 2015 to April 2016 were selected as observation group, and divided into Level III group(n=32) and Level IV group(n=28) according to NYHA classification;60 healthy patients at the same period were selected as control group.BNP and TnI levels were detected by chemiluminescence in each group, and were compared.Results BNP and TnI of observation group were(2624.4 ±378.6) ng/mL and(0.87 ± 0.22) ng/mL, while in control group were(72.4 ±20.2) ng/mL and(0.13 ±0.02) ng/mL, the differences were significant(P<0.05);BNP and TnI in level III group before treatment were significantly lower than grade IV group(P<0.05), after treatment, the level of BNP and III in group IV and group TnI were significantly lower(P<0.05), and the levels of BNP and TnI were significantly lower than those in III group after treatment(P<0.05). Conclusion BNP combine with TnI levels monitoring play an important role in AHF diagnosis and prognosis evaluation, can help to guide the treatment of AHF.

Objective To explore the use of rhomboid skin flap in expanded skin flap transfer. Methods A rhomboid skin flap was designed if the top soft part could not be fully utilized after expanded in a rotation skin flap. The flap pedicels were designed near the incision side. It should be ensured that ra-tio of the length to the width of the composite flap, which was composed of the rhomboid skin flap and the rotation skin flap, was 2.5∶1.0. Results Among these 11 patients with re-designed rhomboid skin flaps in the rotation skin flaps, the ratio of the length to the width reached to 3∶1 in some cases, but 2. 5∶1.0 in most cases. All the skin flaps survived, except one patient with disturbance of blood circulation in a small area and one with mild congestion. Conclusion The expanded soft tissue can be fully and rationally utilized to repair the skin defect in this design. Attention should be paid to the ratio of the length to the width of the composited flap, and it is better to select axial flap as the composite flap for safety. This method is safe, and worthy of recommendation.

Objective To investigate the operative methods and merits of nasal reconstruction in terms of the aesthetics. Methods The noses of 12 patients were reconstructed with an expanded triangle-shaped forehead flap with unilateral supratrochlear artery, a skin expander was placed obliquely under galea aponeurotica of forehead. Liquid was injected with conventional expansion method. Using the skin and the scars on nasal dorsum and tip as lining, based on intercanthal distance and aesthetic standard, a triangle-shaped forehead myocutaneous flap was designed over the expanded forehead skin tissue and used for a nasal reconstruction. The triangle-shaped flap was trimmed to different layer and reshaped based on aesthetic subunit.Results In twelve post-operative patients with nasal defect, no flap necrosis was found and the appearance of reconstructed noses were almost normal and satisfactory after follow-up for 6 months to 2 years. Conclusion The modified forehead myocutaneous flap according to aesthetic standard is safe and ideal for major nasal reconstruction. Meticulous moulding of triangle-shaped flap, nose interior with good blood supply, and primary insertion of nose stretcher are the key to a satisfactory appearance.

Objective To explore the mutation situation of pancreatic cancer cell mitochondria DNA D-loop region. Method PCR and direct sequencing was used to analyze the mutational site of mitochondria DNA D-loop region in two pancreatic cancer cell lines SW1990 and JF-305 and normal primary cultured pancreas cell. Result The point mutations were found in two pancreatic cancer cell lines and normal primary cultured pancreas cell. Eight point mutations were found in SW1990 and 9 point mutations were found in JF-305. Three point mutations (73 site A-G,16223 site C-T, and 16358 site c-T) existed in all two pancreatic cancer cell lines and normal primary cultured pancreas cells, which can be considered as polymorphism. Other two point mutations (16211 site C-T and 16311 site T-C) were only found in two pancreatic cancer cell lines, which can be considered as special mutations. Conclusion The mitochondrial DNA D-loop region of pancreatic cancer cells existed polymorphism and special mutations, and the special mutations might be new molecule marker.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) onthe collagen metabolism in human keloid fibroblasts with RNA interference (RNAi).Methods Human keloid fibroblasts (KFB) in vitro were transfected by 3 pairs of specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) CTGF plasmid synthesized for human CTGF,respectively.Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) contributed to the screening of the best siRNA in interfering of CTGF expression in human keloid fibroblasts to construct the plasmids,with the application of RNAi,to test the changes of expression level and collagen content of CTGF in transfected keloid fibroblasts through RT-PCR and Western blotting compared to its control groups.ResultsThe 3rd pair (C3) siRNA- CTGF expression of genes and proteins was remarkably inhibited after being interfered with human keloid fibroblasts,with inhibitory rates of 86.8 % and 65.6 %.ConclusionsKeloid fibroblasts transfected by plasmid siRNA-CTGF effectively inhibite the expression of CTGF and deposition of collagen,and CTGF promotes the collagen synthesis in keloid development.

Objective To explore the effect of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on tube formation of HUVEC induced by the secretion of angiogenesis factors of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs).Methods ADSCs were primarily cultured by enzyme digestion method.The flow cytomertry was performed to detect the expression of cell surface marker.ELISA was used to detect the expression of VEGF,HGF,and SDF-1 after given different doses of EGF.Tube formation assay was used to examine the effect of EGF on the tube formation induced by ADSCs.Results ADSCs were successfully isolated and cultured from human liposuction tissue and specific markers were expressed on ADSCs.EGF promoted the secretion of angiogenesis factors VEGF,HGF,and SDF-1,which were secreted by ADSCs.EGF pretreatment increased the ability of tube formation of HUVECs induced by ADSCs.Conclusions ADSCs induce the secretion of angiogenesis factors in vitro,and thus increase the ability of tube formation of HUVECs.EGF promotes the secretion ability of ADSCs,and the best concentration is 15 mg/L.
