Objective To investigate the molecular mechanisms for the development of cardiac hypertrophy in hypertension by scanning the expression profile of microRNA (miRNA) in the left ventricular hypertrophic tissue in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR)using miRNA microarray chip technique.Methods 17-week-old male SHR with left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH) (n=10) and 8-week-old male SHR without LVH were employed in this study (n=10).Left ventricular mass index (LVMI),HE staining and measurement of transverse diameter of myocardium (TDM) were used to evaluate LVH.The mRNAs of the two groups were extracted from left ventricle tissue and the differential expression of miRNA was detected by using miRNA microarray chip.Results LVMI and TDM were greater in rats with LVH vs without [LVMI(2.87?0.15)vs(2.17?0.14)mg/g;TDM(15.32?0.61)vs(12.01?0.43)?m,P

Objective To explore the correlation between CD4+CD29+T cells and the pathological typing and staging for patients with primary pulmonary carcinoma. Methods Flow cytometry was used to detect peripheral blood CD4+CD29+T cells, gamma interferon (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) of 60 patients with lung cancer. The relationships between them and the pathological typing and staging were studied. Results (1) The CD4+CD29+T cellsand TNF-α percentages in thecancer patients were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05), while IFN-γwas significantly reduced (P < 0.05); (2) Amongthe cancer patients, there were 23 cases of squamous carcinoma, 17 cases of adenocarcinoma, 11 cases of large cell carcinoma and 9 cases of small cell carcinoma. The numbers of the cases at the stage of 0 , Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 15, 15, 17 and 13, respectively. (3) The percentages of CD4+CD29+T cells and TNF-α had significantly positive correlation with the pathological classification and staging , but IFN-γ-was negatively correlated with pathological typing and staging (r > 0.65, P < 0.05). Conclusion Theincreased CD4+CD29+T cells and TNF-α, together with decreased IFN-γ arehighly indicative of immunological characteristics of lung cancer , and closely related to the pathological typing and staging.

Objective To investigate the correlations between ambulatory arterial stiffness index and intracranial/extracranial arterial stenosis.Methods One hundred and twenty-eight cases of ischemic cerebrovascular disease were collected in our hospital from January 2010 to March 2012.Joint diagnosis of cranial computer tomography(TCD) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and,or CT angiography (CTA) were used to detect the degree and number of intracranial arteries,and in accordance with the lesions level,patients were divided into stenosis group,the mild stenosis group,the moderate stenosis group and severe stenosis group.24 h ambulatory blood pressure was monitored and ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) was calculated and statistically analyzed.Results (1) Age,sex,hypertension proportion of diabetes,body mass index(BMI) of different Intracranial arterial stenosis in four groups did not have significant differences (P ＞0.05),but in AASI the without stenosis group is 0.48 ± 0.15 ; the mild stenosis group 0.62 ± 0.16,the moderate stenosis group 0.61 ± 0.17,severe stenosis group 0.64 ± 0.15,and there was significant difference (F =3.955,P =0.001).(2) Age,sex,hypertension proportion of diabetes,BMI of different extracranial arterial stenosis in four groups did not have significant differences (P ＞ 0.05),but in AASI the without stenosis group was 0.48 ± 0.01 ; the mild stenosis group 0.57 ± 0.11,the moderate stenosis 0.59 ± 0.12,and severe group 0.60 ±0.15,and there was significant difference (F =3.643,P =0.002).In comparison between any two group:light,moderate and severe stenosis AASI were significantly higher than those without stenosis,and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).And there was significant different in AASI among different intracranial and extracranial arterial lesions (F =7.395,P ＜ 0.001).Compared to 0 branch pathological changes,1 branch,2 branch,3 branch and above,there was was significant difference(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Based on a 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring indicators,AASI was mainly reflecting the impact of atherosclerosis on blood pressure,associated with intracranial and extracranial artery stenosis.AASI would play a major role in clinical diagnosis and treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular and forecast.

To advocate cadaver donation is to advocate the spirit of devotion and scientific research.It has been proved in the development of modern medicine that many problems of medical education and stubborn diseases were solved by necrospy.However,currently the cadavers donated cannot satisfy practical need,mainly because that few people would voluntarily register to donate their bodies,and those among the registered who actually donated are even fewer.This paper analyzes three factors that contribute to the bottleneck in the cadaver donation.And on the basis of present situation,countermeasures are presented to solve the problems.
