Objective To investigate microRNAs ( miRNAs) expression profiling of cardiomyocytes in rats with heart failure, and predict miRNAs-regulated target genes and their functions.Methods Total of 18 male SD rats weighing 200-220 g were randomly divided into 2 groups:the control group ( CON) and the heart failure group (HF).The rats in HF group were injected by adriamycin via tail vein to induce heart failure, meanwhile in CON group, rats were received an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride intravenously.The cardiomyocytes isolated from the rat hearts in two groups and cultured overnight.After that, total RNA was extracted and then subjected to miRNA microarray to screen differentially expressed miRNAs.The reults of microarray were further verified by quantitative real-time PCR ( qRT-PCR ) .The target genes regulated by differentially expressed miRNAs were predicted by the software of Targetscan and miRanda.Bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the miRNAs-regulated target genes and analyze the enriched gene ontology ( GO) and signaling pathway ( KEGG Pathway) .Results The results of miRNA microarray showed that a total of 37 miRNAs were differentially expressed in HF group as compared to CON group, among which 22 miRNAs were up-regulated and 15 miRNAs were down-regulated (P<0.01, FDR<0.05).The expression of miR-133b-5p (t=14.56, P<0.01), miR-6216 (t=9.32, P<0.01) and let-7e-5p (t=13.92, P<0.01) which were detected by qRT-PCR exhibited the similar tendency of up or down regulation to those shown in microarray results.Bioinformatics analysis indicated that miRNAs-regulated target genes were significantly enriched in 31 GOs (P<0.01, FDR<0.05) and 12 signal pathways (P<0.05, FDR<0.05), among which ubiquitin-proteasome system, MAPK signaling pathway and Toll like siganling pathway exhibited a higher enrichment. Conclusion MiRNA expression profile on cardiomyocytes in rat with adriamycin-induced heart failure was significantly changed.These differentially expressed miRNAs might participate in the process of heart failing by regulating their target genes in rat cardiomyocytes.

Objective To investigate the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathway in reduction of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by morphine preconditioning in the rats with chronic heart failure in vitro.Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-230 g,aged 6-7 weeks,in which doxorubicin 2 mg/kg was injected via the tail vein once a week for 6 consecutive weeks to induce chronic heart failure,were studied.At the end of 8th week,30 rats with chronic heart failure were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group Sham),I/R group,morphine preconditioning group (group MPC),SB203580 (p38MAPK inhibitor) + morphine preconditioning group (group SBM),and SB203580 group (group SB).The hearts were quickly excised and passively perfused in a Langendorff apparatus and subjected to 30 min of occlusion of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery followed by 120 min of reperfusion to establish the model of myocardial I/R injury.After equilibration,the hearts were subjected to 3 cycles of 5 min perfusion with K-H solution containing morphine 1 μmol/L at 5-min intervals before ischemia in group MPC.In group SBM,the hearts were perfused with K-H solution containing SB203580 (5 μmol/L) for 45 min starting from l0 min before morphine preconditioning until 5 min of ischemia.In group SB,morphine preconditioning was not performed,and the hearts were only perfused with K-H solution containing SB203580 (5 μmol/L) starting from 40 min before ischemia until 5 min of ischemia.At 15 min of equilibration (baseline),5 and 10 min of reperfusion,the coronary effluent was collected to detect the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) using the chemical colorimetry.At 10 min of reperfusion,the expression of phosphor-p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK) in the myocardium was determined by Western blot in Sham,I/R and MPC groups.At 120 min of reperfusion,the area at risk (AAR),total areas of right and left ventricles (LV+RV),and infarct size (IS) were measured,and the IS/AAR ratio was calculated.Results Compared with group Sham,the LDH activity in coronary effluent during reperfusion and IS/AAR ratio were significantly increased in the other groups,and the expression of p-p38MAPK was significantly up-regulated in I/R and MPC groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,the LDH activity in coronary effluent during reperfusion was significantly decreased,the expression of p-p38MAPK was significantly up-regulated,and the IS and IS/AAR ratio were significantly decreased in group MPC (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the LDH activity in coronary effluent,IS and IS/AAR ratio in SBM and SB groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group MPC,the LDH activity in coronary effluent during reperfusion was significantly increased,and the IS and IS/AAR ratio were significantly increased in group SBM (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which morphine preconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury is related to activation of p38MAPK signaling pathway in the rats with chronic heart failure in vitro.

Objective To explore the association between serum FGF23 and Klotho protein,and bone mineral density in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods A total of 125 MHD patients admitted in the Hospital between January 2015 and November 2015 was enrolled.Their bone mineral densities of femur neck and lumbar spine were studied by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.These patients were divided into three groups as normal,osteopenic and osteoporotic,according to World Health Organization criteria based on bone mineral density T scores.Levels of serum FGF23,Klotho protein and 1,25(OH)2VitD3 were measured by ELISA.The parameters including calcium,phosphorus,and parathyroid hormone were assessed.Results The incidences of osteopenia and osteoporosis at the femur neck and lumbar spine in MHD patients were 82.40％ and 56.00％ respectively.No significant difference was found in the levels of serum FGF23 among normal,osteopenic and osteoporotic groups on the basis of femur neck and lumbar spine bone mineral density (P ＞ 0.05).No correlation was found between FGF23 and bone mineral density.There however were significant differences in the levels of serum Klotho protein among three groups on the basis of femoral neck bone mineral density (P ＜ 0.05).And the levels of Klotho protein in the osteoporotic group [(387.172±54.137) ng/L] were significantly decreased than those in normal group [(429.883±41.776)ng/L] and osteopenic group [(410.598±61.056) ng/L] (P ＜ 0.05).There were also significant differences in the levels of serum Klotho protein among three groups in terms of lumbar spine bone mineral density (P ＜ 0.05),while the levels of Klotho protein in the osteopenic group [(387.263 ± 53.255) ng/L] were significantly decreased than those in normal group [(417.108±56.179) ng/L] (P＜ 0.05).A positive correlation was found between Klotho protein and bone mineral densities of femur neck and lumbar spine.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that one of the main factors influencing the degree of bone mineral density in MHD patients was Klotho protein.Conclusions CKD-MBD with low BMD is common and widespread in hemodialysis patients.FGF23 has no direct effect on bone mineral density in MHD patients;while Klotho protein is correlated with the severity of bone mineral density.High-level Klotho protein may reduce the severity of CKD-MBD with low BMD in MHD patients.

Objective To evaluate the role of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathways in reduction of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by morphine preconditioning in the rats with heart failure.Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-230 g,in which doxorubicin 2 mg/kg was injected via the tail vein once a week for 6 consecutive weeks to induce chronic heart failure,were studied.At the end of 8th week,45 rats with chronic heart failure were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =9 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group I/R,morphine preconditioning group (group MPC),SP600125 (JNK inhibitor) + morphine preconditioning group (group MSP) and SB203580 (p38MAPK inhibitor) + morphine preconditioning group (group MSB).Myocardial I/R was induced by 30 min occlusion of the anterior descending branch of the coronary artery followed by 120 min reperfusion in each group except group S.In group MPC,the rats were subjected to 3 cycles of 5-min infusion of 0.1 mg/kg morphine via the femoral vein at 5 min interval before ischemia.In MSP and MSB groups,SP600125 0.5 mg/kg and SB203580 0.2 mg/kg were injected via the femoral vein,respectively,at 10 min before morphine preconditioning.The animals were sacrificed at 120 min of reperfusion,and the myocardial specimens were obtained for determination of the total areas of right and left ventricles (LV+RV),area at risk (AAR),infarct size (IS),and expression of PKC δ in myocardial tissues (by immunohistochemistry),and IS/AAR ratio was calculated.Results There was no significant difference in LV+RV and AAR between the five groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group S,IS and IS/AAR were significantly increased,and the expression of PKC δ was upregulated in I/R and MSB groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,IS and IS/AAR were significantly decreased,and the expression of PKC δ was down-regulated in MPC and MSP groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group MPC,IS and IS/AAR were significantly increased,and the expression of PKC δ was upregulated in group MSB (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group MSP (P＞0.05).Conclusion Activation of p38MAPK signaling pathway is involved in reduction of myocardial I/R injury by morphine preconditioning,and the mechanism is related to down-regulation of PKC δ expression in rats with heart failure;JNK signaling pathway is not involved in this process.

Objective To evaluate the role of nitric oxide (NO)-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-protein kinase G (PKG) signal transduction pathway in mitigation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by intrathecal morphine postconditioning in rats.Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats in which intrathecal catheters were successfully placed without complications,weighing 250-350 g,were randomly assigned into 8 groups (n =6 each):normal saline group (NS group),morphine postconditioning group (Mp group),1-NG-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME,NO synthase inhibitor) + morphine postconditioning group (L-NAME + MP group),ODQ (guanylate cyclase inhibitor) + morphine postconditioning group (ODQ + MP group),KT5823 (PKG inhibitor) + morphine postconditioning group (KT5823 + MP group),L-NAME group,ODQ group and KT5823 group.Myocardial ischemia was induced by 30 min of occlusion of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery followed by 2 h of reperfusion.At 25 rin of ischemia,normal saline 10 μl was intrathecally infused over 5 min in group NS,and morphine (3 μg/kg,10 μl) was intrathecally infused over 5 min in group MP.L-NAME (30 nmol,10 μl),ODQ (11 nmol,10 μl) and KT5823 (20 pmol,10 μl) were intrathecally injected at 10 rin before morphine postconditioning in L-NAME + MP,ODQ + MP and KT5823 + MP groups,respectively.Before myocardial ischemia (T0),at 25 and 30 min of ischemia (T1-2),and at 120 min of reperfusion (T3),MAP and HR were recorded,and rate-pressure product (RPP) was calculated.The rats were sacrificed at T3,and myocardial specimens were obtained for determination of myocardial infarct size as a percentage of area at risk (IS/AAR).Results MAP,HR and RPP were significantly lower at T1-3 than at T0 in each group.Compared with group NS,MAP was significantly increased at T3,and IS/AAR ratio was decreased in MP group,and no significant changes were found in the other groups.Compared with group MP,IS/AAR ratio was significantly increased in L-NAME + MP,ODQ + MP and KT5823 + MP groups,and no significant changes were found in the other groups.Conclusion NO-cGMP-PKG signal transduction pathway plays an important role in mitigation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by intrathecal morphine postconditioning in rats.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the method of primary culture for endometriotic cells and to find out the differences in morphological manifestations among endometriotic cells and eutopic endometrial cells sampled from patients with endometriosis and endometriosis-free women. METHODS: Endometriotic and eutopic endometrial cells were cultured by modified method of primary culture. The endometriotic cell types were observed and differentiated under optical and electron microscopes. RESULTS: The success rates for culture of eutopic endometrial cells from endometriosis-free women and patients with endometriosis were 91.67% and 93.75% respectively. The success rate for culture of endometriotic cells was 75.00%. The size of endometriotic glandular cells was similar to those of eutopic endometrial glandular cells from endometriosis-free women and patients with endometriosis. The chromatin was manifold and the nucleus was augmented in the endometriotic glandular cells. The endometriotic stromal cells were smaller than the eutopic endometrial stromal cells from endometriosis-free women and patients with endometriosis. Many tiny villi and protuberances on plasma membrane could be seen in the endometriotic stromal cells. CONCLUSION: The success rate for culture of endometriotic cells can be elevated through improving the method of primary culture. The ultrastructures of endometriotic glandular and stromal cells are obviously different from those of eutopic endometrial glandular and stromal cells from endometriosis-free women and patients with endometriosis.
