Objective To observe the effects of turicamycin-inhibitor of N-glycosylation of proteins on expression of (?1 integrin,FAK and cyclin D1 in high glucose-induced glomerular mesangial cells (CMC), and to explore the mechanism concerned. Methods Cultured HBZY-1 rat mesangial cells were divided into 5 groups:control group;high glucose group;mannitol group;high glucose plus TM group; TM group.The expression of ?1 integrin was measured by flow cytometry, expression of FAK and cyclin D1 was measured by immunohistochemistry,and proliferation of GMCs was measured by MTT. Results There was a little expression of ?1 integrin, FAK and cyclin D1 on normal mesangial cells. High glucose induced the proliferation and increased the expression of ?1 integrin and cyclin D1.There was no significant difference in mannitol group as compared to control group.The expression of (?1 integrin FAK and cyclin D1 decreased notably by TM.TM could also decrease proliferative abilitiy of cells. All the effects of TM were dose-dependent. Conclusion Through blocking glycosylation of glycoprotein, TM can suppress cellular proliferation and expression of pi integrin induced by high glucose in a dose-dependent manners,then pi integrin affects the expression of FAK and cyclin D1.

BACKGROUND: Presently, acute rejection following renal transplantation remains a risk factor for chronic rejection and graft function injury, How to non-invasive, rapid and exact diagnosis and prompt treatment is important. OBJECTIVE: To investigate early diagnosis and post-treatment expression of urine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in the acute rejection after renal transplantation, through detecting the association of the urine MCP-1 variation according to some cases of nephridial tissue biopsy. METHODS: We selected 62 chronic renal failure patients who received renal homotransplantations in the Department of Renal Transplantation of Zhengzhou People's Hospital from October 2008 to February 2009. The stable renal function group contained 42 patients with stable renal function following renal transplantation. Acute rejection group contained 20 patients with acute rejection following renal transplantation. We chose 10 patients who examined no abnormalities in the Medical Examination Center of Zhengzhou People's Hospital to detect their urine sample as control group. All patients following renal transplantation underwent conventional immunosuppression. In addition, patients in the acute rejection group were treated with antilymphocyte globulin or methylprednisolone reinforced impact therapy. MCP-1 mass concentration changes were measured by double antibodies sandwich enzyme linked immurosorbent assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with control group, no significant change was determined in urine MCP-1 mass concentration in the stable renal function group (P > 0.05). The urine MCP-1 mass concentration was significantly increased in the acute rejection group (P< 0.01). Compared with pretreatment, urine MCP-1 mass concentration was significantly decreased following treatment in 20 patients from the acute rejection group (P < 0.01). Of them, 17 cases had relieved clinical symptom, and normal auxiliary examination, and their urine MCP-1 mass concentration was close to the control group; 3 cases were inefficient, whose urine MCP-1 mass concentration was greater than the control group. Eight cases received nephridial tissue biopsy, and kidney pathology demonstrated acute rejection of transplanted kidney, which was similar to urine MCP-1 mass concentration in the acute rejection group prior to treatment (P > 0.05). These indicated that the level of MCP-1 in urine can non-invasively diagnose acute rejection following renal transplantation in an early phase, and monitor therapeutic efficacy. This may be associated with renal pathological injury during acute rejection following renal transplantation.

Objective:To investigate nursing students' attitudes toward death and hospice care before they start clinical practice, analyze the correlation between the two attitudes and compare their differences in junior and regular nursing college students.Methods:A cross-sectional study was adopted to investigate the attitudes toward death and hospice care in 232 senior nursing students at school. Instruments included the Chinese version of the Death Attitude Profile-Revised (DAP-R) and the Chinese version of the Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying Scale-Form B (FATCOD-B). Pearson correlation analysis and independent t-test were used to analyze the data.Results:The mean scores of the 5 dimensions of death attitude were neutral acceptance (4.10±0.43), fear of death (2.76±0.66), death avoidance (2.73±0.74), approach acceptance (2.61±0.58), and escape acceptance (2.48±0.75), respectively. The total score of hospice care attitude was (107.63±8.45), which was negatively correlated with fear of death ( r=-0.247, P<0.01), death avoidance ( r=-0.278, P<0.01), and escape acceptance ( r=-0.145, P<0.05) scores and positively correlated with neutral acceptance score ( r=0.405, P<0.01). The death avoidance score of regular nursing college students was significantly lower than that of junior nursing college students ( t=-2.043, P<0.05), and the hospice care attitude score of regular nursing college students was significantly higher that of junior nursing college students ( t=2.639, P<0.01). Conclusion:There is a big room to improve nursing students' attitudes toward death and hospice care. Strengthening end-of-life care education is imperative.
