Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(24):51-54
Objective To evaluate the effect of health education on lung function,quality of life,awareness degree and treatment compliance in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients during stationary phase.Methods 106 COPD patients during stationary phase were randomly divided into 4 groups,25 patients in group Ⅰ,26 patients in group Ⅱ,20 patients in group Ⅲ,35 patients in group Ⅳ.Group Ⅰ did not accepted the health education,and group Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ accepted two,four and eight (or>eight) weeks health education in file.The lung function,quality of life,awareness degree and inerratic treatment rate were compared before and 6 months after health education by questionnaire and follow-up survey.Results Health education could be successful in delaying the decline of FEV1,FVC and FEV1/FVC and was effective in decreasing the SGRQ score among the COPD patients during stationary phase.The results showed that group Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ were superior to group Ⅰ,while group Ⅲ,Ⅳ were superior to group Ⅰ,Ⅱ.Health education could remarkably increase awareness degree and inerratic treatment in COPD patients during stationary phase,and the effect on inerratic treatment was connected with the health education number of times.There were distinct different results among 4 groups.Conclusions Health education could remarkably increase awareness and inerratic treatment rate,and have positive effect to delay lung function decline and to promote quality of life in COPD patients during stationary phase.

Aquaporins (AQP), abundant in diversity, are the member of the major intrinsic proteins (MIPs) family with extraordinary ability to transport water, and thus, play important roles in modulation of water relations in plants. The recent advances in classification, structural characteristics, and physiological functions during plant growth and development as well as the various regulation modes of the activity and the effects of several abiotic stresses (water stress and salt stress) and phytohormones (ABA, GA and ethylene) on the gene expression of AQP were reviewed.

Objective To investigate the impacts of mecobalamin on plasma inflammatory factors (plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) and carotid artery plaques in patients with H type hypertension.Methods Forty-eight acute ischemic stroke patients who were diagnosed with H type hypertension in the People's Hospital of Taixing were collected,and they were randomly divided them into treatment group and control group,and 24 cases of each group.Patients in both groups were given conventional therapies,including treatment of anti platelet aggregation,plaque stability and reduced plaque treatment.While patients in the treatment group were given additional oral drug of mecobalamin,500 μg each time,three times a day,6 months in all.Each case was evaluated at the second day of hospitalization,four weeks later,eight weeks later,three months and sixth months later.The examination items involved included level of plasma homocysteine(Hcy),level of hsCRP and conditions of carotid artery plaques under ultrasonography.Results Aafter four weeks,eight weeks,three months and sixth months therapy,there were significant differences between treatment group and control group in terms of Hcy (t =4.049,3.896,6.052,6.159 ; P < 0.05) and the level of hs-CRP (t =37.249,28.376,26.454,0.522P < 0.01).Afrter three months and sixth months therapy,compared to the control group,the carotid artery plaques were obviously reduced,and the differences were statistically significant (t =2.309,2.434 ; P < 0.05).Conclusion Mecobalamin can reduce the level of plasma homocysteine,then lead to reductions of levels of plasma inflammatory factors and volume of carotid artery plaques.

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of thrombospondin-2 (TSP-2), the changes of MVD and angiogenesis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods By using SP immunohistochemical staining, the expression of TSP-2 and microvessel counting were evaluated in surgically resected specimens from 55 patients with NSCLC and 30 patients' pancancerous tissues, using the anti-TSP-2 and anti-CD34 monoclonal antibodies respectively. Results Active angiogenesis took place in NSCLC tumor tissues. Microvessel density (MVD) was associated with metastasis and clinical stage of NSCLC. Expression level of TSP-2 in the tumor tissues of 55 NSCLC patients was significantly higher than that in the pancancerous tissues from other 30 patients (149.10?2.94 vs. 145.70?4.74, P

Objective To study the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) after transferred angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) type 2 receptor (AT2R) gene. Methods The recombinant adenoviral vector, AdCMV-AT2R, containing rat AT2 receptor gene was constructed by homologous recombination, and transfered to rat VSMC in vitro. The expression of AT2R mR NA was detected by RT-PCR. The rate of expression and the change of cell cycle in VSMC were analysed by flow cytometry. These assays including cell devision index. Incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU) and 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide( MTT) were used to determine the proliferation of VSMC. The modified Boyden's chamber method was used to test the migration of VSMC. The r e-organization of F-actin in VSMC was analysed by confocal microscopy. Results RT-PCR showed that the expression of AT2R mRNA increased substantially in transferred VSMC, and the peak value of expression rate is about 89.51% at 48 hours. When the expression of AT2R is at peak value, the ratio of S, G2 and M periods was reduced from 31.7% to 13.9%(P<0.05). The OD values of MTT and BrdU incorporation were reduced by 61.4% and 51.6% respectively(P<0.0(1). the number of VSMC migration was reduced by 62.2%(P<0.05) and the expression of F-actin was also decreased signific antly. Conclusion AdCMV-AT2R induced high level expression of AT2 receptor in cultured rat VSMC and its expression can significantly inhibit the proliferation and migration of rats VSMC in vitro.

AIM: HLCDG1 is a novel gene cloned recently, and its expression inhibits significantly the growth of A549 cells and tumorigenesis of A549 cells transplanted in nude mice. In this study, our aim was to construct HLCDG1 gene short/small interference double-strand RNA (siRNAs) expression vector and to observe its influence on cell cycle and proliferation of A549 cells. METHODS: Using RNA interference (RNAi) techniques, a DNA vector-driven siRNAs expression vector was constructed, and a lung carcinoma cell line stably expressing siRNAs was also selected. Sequentially, using flow cytometry analysis and MTT assay, the changes of cell cycle and cell proliferation in this cell line were observed. RESULTS: Four site-match and one site-mismatch plasmids were constructed, which were named pHL-si-1, pHL-si-2, pHL-si-3, pHL-si-4 and pHL-si-c. These plasmids were co-transfected with a pcDNA3.1(+)/HLCDG1 plasmid into A549 cells, respectively. Among five co-transfected A549 cell lines, a A549 cell line co-transfected by the pcDNA3.1(+)/HLCDG1 and pHL-si-1 plasmids, namely A549-HLCDG1-si-1, showed nearly complete inhibition of HLCDG1 expression. MTT assay and flow cytometry analysis indicated that A549-HLCDG1-si-1 cells, namely the HLCDG1 gene-silencing cells, got a faster growth compared with other HLCDG1 expression cell lines, and that HLCDG1 gene-silencing induced A549-HLCDG1-si-1 cells into S phase and G_2+M phase significantly. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the HLCDG1 gene is proved to have a markedly inhibitory effect on growth in A549 lung carcinoma cells. This study might provide some understanding of the biological function and molecular mechanism of HLCDG1 gene.
