2.Clinical study of urinary microprotein as predictors of outcome in critically ill patients
Chinese Journal of Nephrology 2005;0(08):-
Objective To evaluate the feacibility of microalbumin(MA),alpha-1 -raicroglobulin (?1-MG) ,N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), retinol-binding protein (RBP)as predictors of outcome in critically ill patients. Methods A prospective study was underwent in 30 critically ill patients.Urinary samples were collected at ICU admission and on the third,seventh ICU day for MA,?1-MG,NAG,RBP measurement.The severity of illness was assessed by APACHE II score calculated on the first ICU day,and the degree of organ dysfunction was assessed using SOFA score calculated on the first,third,seventh ICU day. Results MA,?1-MG,the durations of ICU stay and mechanical ventilation,APACHE II score, SOFA score were relative factors of MODS and death in ICU. There was significant association of APACHE II with MA (r=0.397),?1-MG (r=0.448), and RBP (r= 0.465), respectively. The area under ROC curve of APACHE II score,SOFA score,MA,?1-MG, RBP,NAG to predicate the death in ICU were 0.875 ( P

Mice were fed basic diet or basic diet plus vitamin E 50 mg or 500 mg per kg of diet for 4 weeks. The animals were killed at 6 or 14 days after one exposure to 400 rad X-ray whole body radiation and the number of lymphocytes of spleen and thymus and blastogenic responses of splenocytes were tested. The results showed; (1) the number of lymphocytes both in spleen and thymus were significantly decreased in mice fed basic diet in com-parision with that in mice fed with basic diet plus vitamin E (P

Objective To investigate the relationship of microembolic signals (MESs) between the degree of symptomatic carotid artery stenosis, ultrasonic characteristics of plaques, peak systolic velocity at the stenotic site and risk factors for stroke. Methods A total of 52 patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis were enrolled. MESs of bilateral middle cerebral arteries were monitored and detected by carotid color Doppler flow imaging. Results The positive rate of MESs on the symptomatic sides was significantly higher than that on the asymptomatic sides (28. 8% vs. 4. 5%, P < 0. 05). The positive rate was not significantly correlated with the degree of stenosis, ultrasonic characteristics of plaques, peak systolic velocity on the stenotic sides, and risk factors for stroke. Conclusions MESs mainly occurred on the symptomatic sides of carotid artery stenosis, and they were more closely correlated with unstable plaques.

Livin is a new and important member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein(IAPs)family.Livin is high expressed in most human tumor cells, involved in apoptosis inhibition and closely related with tumor development and progression.Studies found that through the down-regulation or inhibition of Livin expression and the induction specific antibodies of Livin could inhibi and kill tumor cells, which provided a new method for tumors'diagnosis, cell and gene targeted therapy.

The heel vessel belongs to the eight extra meridians in human meridian system, which is closely related to the human motion function. Balance function plays an essential role in successful completion of activities in daily life, so the physiological function and pathology of heel vessel as well as human balance function are analyzed, and from the aspect of running course of heel vessel and syndrome, the correlation between heel vessel and human balance function is explored, and the application status of acupoints related to heel vessel for balance dysfunction is introduced. It is believed that heel vessel is closely related to human balance function, especially the motion regulation mechanisms of balance function, and it is hoped that new ideas and methods can be provided for acupuncture treatment for the balance function disorders.

The leucoanthocyantin reducase (LAR) gene, an important functional gene of catechins biosynthesis pathway, was cloned from Fagopyrum dibotrys (D.Don) Hara by degenerate PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The full-length cDNA of FdLAR is 1 581 bp (GenBank accession: JN793953), containing a 1 176 bp ORF encoding a 391 amino acids protein, and its 3'-untranslated region has an obvious polyadenylation signal. The recombinant plasmid containing FdLAR completed ORF was transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). The target fusion peptide with molecular weight of 66 kD was expressed under the condition of 16 degrees C and induced by IPTG at final concentration of 1.0 mmol x L(-1). Bioinformation analysis indicated that the amino acid sequence of FdLAR showed great homology to other LAR with the NADB-Rossmann conversed domain in the N-terminus. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression levels of FdLAR gene during different development periods. The determination of flavonoids contents in appropriate rhizomes showed that the relationship between FdLAR gene expression and the accumulation of flavonoids displayed different trends during vegetative growth and reproductive growth stages, suggesting that the FdLAR gene may be involved in the pathway of flavonoid metabolisms in Fagopyrum dibotrys.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate target genes expression in the post-transcriptional levels.There are many kinds of differential expressions of miRNA in head and neck cancer,and the miRNA participate in a series of important biological processes such as cell development,proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis and etc.miRNAs is expected to become an effective means for the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancer.
