The cerebral infarction model was made according to Chen et al To evaluate the severity of infarction the quantity of Evan's blue was measured. The cerebral infarction size was determined by TTC stain. The results showed that ligating the right common carotid artery and the right middle cerebal artery and clamping the left common carotid artery could induce cerebral cortex in farction. Berbamine could decreased the level of Evan's blue and reduce the infarction size compared with control group. It suggests that berbamine possesses protective effect on experimental induced cerebral infarction.

The study showed that NMBA could inhibit the rabbit thoracic aorta contractions induced by KC1, CaCl2 and NA, and the pD' 2 values were 3.44, 3.67 and 3.73 respectively. NMBA could also antagonize the extracellular Ca2 + contraction of NA with no effect on the intra-cellular Ca2+ contraction. Comparing with verapamil, the mechanism of NMBA action was inferred to blocking Ca2+ influx during excitation. However, further study will be needed.

Objective To study the effect of lincRNA-p21 on the proliferation of renal cell carcinoma.Methods The expression levels of lincRNA-p21in renal cell carcinoma tissues and their corresponding para-cancerous tissues from 17 patients in department of nephrology,Hua Xi hospital,was detected by RT-PCR.In addition,the expression of lincRNA-p21 was analyzed in human clear cell RCC cell line 786-O and human embryonic kidney cell line HEK-293.The cell proliferation,apoptosis and the expression of Bax、Noxa、Puma that participated in p53 signaling pathway were detected after lincRNA-p21 was downregulated with siRNA.Results The expression levels of lincRNA-p21was higher in renal cell carcinoma tissues and 786-O cells than para-cancerous tissues and HEK-293 cells respectively(P < 0.05).The ability of proliferation was significantly increased after lincRNA-p21 siRNA treatment in 786-O cells,whereas the cell apoptosis was decreased (P < 0.05).The mRNA expressions of Bax,Noxa,Puma were also dramatically decreased after lincRNA-p21 was downregulated(P <0.05).Conclusion LincRNA-p21 inhibits the cell proliferation of 786-O cells through participation in p53 signal transduction pathways.These data suggested that lincRNA-p21 maybe could be used as molecular targets for human RCC treatment.

The contraction of the isolated rabbit renal arteries induced by noradrenaline, high K+ & calcium could be relaxed by berbamine ( BA ). BA shifted dose-response curve of noradrenaline, high K+ snd calcium to the right, but the maximal response was reduced. The antagonistic parameter pD' 2 of berbamine on calcium contrac-tion was 4.76, which is similar to the verapamil (pD'2=5.68). Therefore berbamine can be considered as a non-competitive calcium antagonist.

The isolated working heart of guinea pig perfused with Tyrode's solution could work normally for at least 60 min. It was shown that berbamine ( BA ) could depress the function of isolated working heart of guinea pig in dose-dependent manner. BA 3 mol/L could decrease the left ventricular pressure, aortic pressure, -dP/dtmax, aortic blood flow and coronary blood flow, and increase left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. BA 100 mol/L could result in the ventricular asystole, however, no obvious influence the contraction of atrium.It was also demonstrated that BA could antagonise the arrhythmias induced by the adrenaline in isolated working heart of guinea Pig.

Objective To study the pathway of miR-221/222 in enhancing radiation resistance of glioblastoma.Methods After 2 Gy of X-ray irradiation,the expressions of miR-221/222 in U251,U87 and LN229 glioblastma cells were detected with real-time PCR.Clonogenic assay was used to measure the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma after knocking down miR-221/222.ChIP assay was used to identify the combination situation of c-jun and miR-221/222.Luciferase assay was applied to check whether PTEN was a target of miR-221/222.Western blot was used to detect the expression of relevant proteins in the glioblastoma cells after knocking down miR-221/222.The effect of miR-221/222 and irradiation on growth of glioblastoma in nude mice was also observed.Results The expression of miR-221/222 was increased by irradiation(t =5.48 ~29.21,P < 0.05) and the radiosensitivity of anti-miR-221/222-transfected cells was alsoincreased(F=1 202.22,1 789.12,1 012.32,P<0.05).MiR-221/ 222 was transcriptionally regulated by c-jun with a target of PTEN (t =13.16,P < 0.05).When miR-221/222 was knocked-down,the expression of pAkt and DNA-PKcs were down-regulated while PTEN and GSK-3β were up-regulated,and the expression of Akt were not changed.Moreover,the growth of xenograft tumor was significantly inhibited by the combination treatment of anti-miR-221/222 and irradiation(F =56.36,P < 0.05).Conclusions The expression of miR-221/222 in glioblastoma cells can be increased by irradiation,and the activation of Akt pathway downstream miR-221/222 could enhance the radiation resistance of glioblastoma.

Objective To study the utility and feasibility of CRAMS score to assess prognosis of patients with acute trauma.Methods A retrospective review of 1 802 patients with acute trauma was conducted to calculate CRAMS and ISS score.Receiver operation characteristic curve (ROC) was used to measure the prognostic role of CRAMS in comparison with ISS.Results Area under the curve (RUC) was 0.885 for CRAMS (95 % CI 0.870-0.900) and was 0.792 for ISS (95% CI 0.773-0.811),with statistical difference of the two scoring systems (Z=4.280,P <0.01).To identify patients with potential critical illness,optimal cut-off point was≤7 for CRAMS and≥24 for ISS.CRAMS presented better sensitivity (x2 =16.910,P < 0.01),but lower specificity (x2 =5.260,P < 0.05) and accuracy (x2 =0.693,P > 0.05) for predicting mortality when compared with ISS.Conclusions CRAMS is better than ISS in predicting prognosis for patients with acute trauma and exhibits a high discrimination.RAMS has advantages of simple operation,easy grasping and accurate and timely reflection of illness severity,which facilitates the early detection and treatment of critical illness in inhospital trauma patients.
