Objective:To study the activation and significance of NF- ?Bp65 in active Heymann nephritis in rats. Methods : Female Wistar rats 6~8 weeks of age were used. The nephritis was induced with FxIA/CFA by subcutaneous injection and the control group with CFA . After the rats were killed, the activation of NF- ?Bp65 in renal tissue was observed by use of immunohistochemical dyeing ;also observed were the changes in pathology ,urinary protein and albumin and the relationship between these 3 factors. Results: Compared with the control group, the thickness of GBM increased (F

Objective To observe the effect of ATF6 on the apoptosis and proliferation of podocytes induced by palmitic acid (PA). Methods Podocytes were stimulated with different doses of PA for 24 h. The expression of cleaved-caspase3 was detected by Western blotting. The podocyte apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM), and the expression of ATF6 was tested by Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining. After the transfection of adenovirus siRNA against ATF6, the proliferation, the cell cycle and apoptosis of potocytes stimulated with PA were tested by MTT or FCM. Results The levels of cleaved - caspase3 and ATF6 of podocytes stimulated with PA were significantly increased by a dose-dependent manner compared with the control group (P<0.05). The apoptosis of podocytes stimulated with PA was increased (P<0.05). Compared with the podocytes stimulated with PA, the apoptosis of podocytes transfected by adenovirus siRNA against ATF6 with PA stimulation was significantly reduced (P<0.05). The proliferation of podocytes transfected by adenovirus siRNA against ATF6 and stimulated with PA, however, was obviously increased compared with the podocytes stimulated with PA (P<0.05). Conclusion ATF6 mediated the apoptosis of podocytes induced by palmitate acid.

AIM: To study the action of NF-?B p65 in tubule-interstitium in rats with active Heymann nephritis(AHN). METHODS: Twenty female Wistar rats in 6-8 weeks of age were divided into two groups. The nephritis was induced with Fx1A/CFA by subcutaneous injection and with CFA as control. After rats were killed, the activation of NF-?B p65 in renal tissue was observed by immune histochemistry. RESULTS: The lesion score of renal interstitium and activation of NF-?B p65 of renal tubule in rats with AHN was higher than those of control group(P

Objective To investigate the lesion of podocyte and the expression of renal integrin-hnked kinase (ILK) in a diet-induced hyperlipidemic model of rats. Methods Thirty-six 6-8 week-old female Wistar rats were randomly assigned into three groups, high-fat diet group, rats in each group were sacrificed at the 4th and 10th week respectively. The levels of serum cholesterol and triglyceride were determined by enzymic method. The morphology of podocyte was observed and photographed with electron microscope. The expression of ILK mRNA was determined by RT-PCR. The expressions of ILK and desmin protein were determined by Western blot analysis. The distribution of ILK in renal tissue was examined by immunohistochemieal staining. Results Levels of serum cholesterol and triglyceride, the expression of desmin, renal ILK mRNA and protein, as well as the foot process effacement were significantly up-regulated in both high-fat diet group and simvastatin group as compared with control group. However, all of the above parameters were ameliorated in simvastatin group as compared with high-fat diet group (P<0.01). ILK was mainly expressed in glomendar podocytes and renal tubular cells by immunohistochemical staining, and its change was similar to the results detected by Western blot analysis in each group. A positive correlation was found between ILK protein expression and desmin expression in renal tissue(r=0.93107, R2=0.8669, P<0.01). Conclusions Podocyte lesion can be induced by high-fat diet, which is correlated with over-expression of renal ILK. Simvastatin may play an important role in protecting against podocyte injury induced by hyperlipoidemia, properly through down-regulating ILK expression in renal tissue.

Objective To investigate the expression and correlation of P73 and PS3 proteins in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma. Methods The immunohistochemistry staining assay was conducted to detect the expression of PS3 and P73 proteins in 46 cases with squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus and 30 normal mucosa cases. The protein expressions and clinic pathological observation and the correlation between two proteins were statistically analyzed. Results The expression of P53 and P73 proteins showed differences between esophageal cancer tiksue and normal mucosa ( P = 0.007,0.008) . The expression of P53 appeared to be correlated with lymph node metastasis(P = 0.047) and gender(P =0.028),but not correlated with age, the depth of invasion , differentiation of cancer tissue, gross observation and position of the tumor( P > 0.05 ). The expression of P73 appeared to be correlated with differentiation of cancer tissue and lymph node metastasis ( P = 0. 023, 0.035), but not correlated with age, gender, the depth of invasion,gross observation and position of the tumor (P >0.05). P73 expression was positively corelated with P53 expression in squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus ( r = 0.359 ,P = 0.014 ). Conclusion Both P73 and P53 proteins are associated with the occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus and participate in the development of esophagus squamous cell carcinoma.
