Parkinson′s disease(PD)is a common disease caused by multiple factors and characterized by pathological degen?eration in the dopaminergic neural system. Based on its pathogenic factors,PD can be divided into several subtypes,so it is essential to develop therapeutic agents based on the main pathogenic factor of each subtype of PD. Recently it is confirmed that the mutation of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2(LRRK2)gene leads to increased activity of the LRRK2 notably,and then causes neurodegeneration. Thus developing LRRK2 inhibitors to modulate the kinase activity will be a novel therapy for the PD subtype which is caused by LRRK2 gene mutation. LRRK2,either a kinase or a GTPase,has two drug binding sites. Therefore,two types of LRRK2 inhibitors are being studied,one is the kinase inhibitor and the other is GTPase inhibitor. This paper summarizes the recent progress in the dis?covery and development of LRRK2 inhibitors.

OBJECTIVE:To study the improvement effects of polydatin on renal fibrosis in rats and its mechanism. METH-ODS:50 rats was were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,positive group(benazepril,5 mg/kg)and poly-datin high-dose and low-dose groups(100,50 mg/kg),with 10 rats in each group. Except for sham operation group,renal fibrosis model was induced by unilateral ureter obstruction. After modeling,administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastri-cally,and sham operation group and model group were given 0.5%sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution once a day for consec-utive 4 weeks. The pathological change of renal tissue was scored. 24 h urinary protein and serum levels of urea nitrogen and creati-nine were determined,and the content of hydroxyproline,mRAN expression of TGF-β1 and FN were detected in renal tissue. RE-SULTS:Compared with sham operation group,pathological score,24 h urinary protein,serum levels of urea nitrogen and creati-nine,the content of hydroxyproline in renal tissue,mRNA expression of TGF-β1 and FN were all increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with model group,24 h urinary protein,serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine and mRNA expression of FN in renal tissue decreased significantly in administation groups;the pathology scores,the content of hydroxyproline in renal tis-sue and mRNA expression of TGF-β1 of positive group and polydatin high-dose group were all decreased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Polydatin can prevent kidney fibrosis induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction,the mechanism of which may be associated with the mRNA expression down-regulation of TGF-β1 and FN in renal tissue.

Objective To investigate the changes in endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) number in peripheral blood of patients with acute cerebral infarction and after Naoxintong treatment.Methods Sixty patients were selected as subject and randomly divided into aspirin group and aspirin (30 patients) + Naoxintong group (30 patients).Meanwhile 30 patients without cerebral infarction were served as control group The number of peripheral blood EPCs were detected by flow cytometry at different time point.NIH-NINDS stroke score was used to elevate the neurological function.Results Compared with the control group,number of peripheral blood EPCs significantly decreased in the early stage of acute cerebral infarction (P ＜ 0.05),and then gradually increased until 7th day,which was back to the normal level.There was a positive correlation between improvement of NIHSS and number of peripheral blood EPCs in acute cerebral infarction.Compared with aspirin group,the number of peripheral blood EPCs in Naoxintong group increased sigrificanfly [41.40 ±0.18/million cells vs 41.40 ±0.18/million cells] at 14th day in patients treated with aspirin and Naoxintong.Conclusion The number of peripheral blood EPCs showed a U shape dynamic change in acute cerebral infarctior.Increase the number of peripheral blood EPCs might improve prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction.On the basis of routine treatment of aspirin,Naoxintong plus aspirin treatment might improve the number of peripheral blood EPCs in acute cerebral infarction.

Objective To study the antihypertensive efficacy and influence on the blood pressure parameters of nifedipine GITS therapy in patients with subacute cerebral infarction with essential hypertension by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM).Methods Fifty-one cases of subacute cerebral infarction with essential hypertension were treated with nifedipine GITS for 14 days.ABPM were performed in all cases before and after treatment.The blood pressure parameters of blood pressure variability (BPV),morning blood pressure surge(MBPS),Trough/Peak(T/P),and smoothness index(SI) were analyzed.Results (1) After treatment with nifedipine GITS 30 mg/d for two weeks,the average 24-hour systolic blood pressure (SBP),day-time systolic blood pressure (dSBP),night-time systolic blood pressure (nSBP),24-hour diastolic blood pressure (DBP),day-time diastolic blood pressure (dDBP),night-time diastolic blood pressure (nDBP) significantly decreased((144.70 ± 14.89) mm Hg vs (163.10 ± 16.48) mm Hg,(145.67 ± 15.20) mm Hg vs (164.55 ±16.81) mm Hg,(140.85 ± 19.46) mm Hg vs (156.73 ±20.55) mm Hg,(81.24 ±8.88) mm Hg vs(89.49 ± 10.06) mm Hg,(81.25 ±9.40) mm Hg vs (90.18 ± 10.64) mm Hg,(81.34 ± 12.10) mm Hg vs (86.28 ±12.11) mmHg;t=11.01,11.53,5.29,8.71,7.53,2.31;P＜0.05)).(2) Defining the standard deviation(SD) of average blood pressure as the indexes of BPV,the blood pressure variability of systolic blood pressure(SBPV),day-time systolic blood pressure variability (dSBPV),night-time systolic blood pressure (nSBPV) decreased significantly ((16.52 ± 4.38) mm Hg vs (19.78 ± 6.72) mm Hg,(15.45 ± 4.71)mm Hg vs (17.88 ± 7.25)mm Hg,(14.94 ± 5.89) mm Hg vs (19.17 ± 8.27) mm Hg; t =3.38,2.19,2.99 ;P ＜0.05)) and the diastolic blood pressure didn't change.(3) There was negative correlation between smoothness index (SI) and BPV (r =-0.28 ; P ＜ 0.05).(4) The decreases of morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) of SBP was more significant after treatment ((22.65 ± 12.77) mm Hg) than that before treatment ((31.94 ±16.36) mm Hg).(5) The median of T/P ratio calculated by group methods was 0.721 for SBP and 0.676 for DBP,and it was 0.588 ± 0.360 for SBP and 0.628 ± 0.433 for DBP calculated by individual method.The medians of T/P ratio were above 0.5 by both methods.Conclusion It is of great significance to effectively control blood pressure and BPV in patients with stroke.Nifedipine GITS can constantly release medicine;it can lower the blood pressure,and significantly reduce BPV and MBPS.

Objective To explore the value of the integrated visual and audio continuous performance test (IVA-CPT) in the diagnosis of Tourette syndrome(TS) patients who have comorbid attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD).Methods IVA-CPT was performed in 519 TS patients with comorbid ADHD (observation group)and 857 patients with pure ADHD (control group).The gold standard for the diagnosis of ADHD was based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th version,USA) (DSM-Ⅳ).Results (1) When DSM-Ⅳ was used as the gold standard,the sensitivity,specificity and coincidence rate of IVA-CPT were 62.4％,81.9％ and 75.7％,respectively.(2) IVA-CPT misdiagnosed 62 cases in TS + ADHD group,including 30.3％ (10/33 cases) inattentive subtype (ADHD-I),51.4％ (37/72 cases) hyperactive subtype (ADHD-H) and 25.0％ (15/60 cases) combined subtype (ADHD-C).Significant difference in misdiagnosis rate was found among ADHD-H and ADHD-I and ADHD-C (x2=10.646,P＜0.05).(3) There were 449 cases in which 2 diagnostic methods were both positive in both observation group and control group,including 103 cases in observation group and 346 cases in control group.The full scale response control quotient,visual reaction control,auditory reaction control in observation group and control group were 89.0±19.5/77.4±18.2,92.4±19.0/84.3±18.9,89.6±16.8/77.4±19.7,and there were significant differences between 2 groups (t=-5.024,-3.533,-5.255,all P＜0.05).The full scale response control quotient,visual response control quotient,full scale attention quotient and visual attention quotient between the 2 groups were statistically significant (t=2.510,-2.836,-1.402,-2.501,all P＜0.05).Conclusions (1) IVA-CPT can be used as an effective and objective tool for the diagnosis of TS children with comorbid ADHD.(2)Comparcd with TS childrcn with comorbid ADHD,pure ADHD children have a higher attention and control impairment.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of serum vasohibin-1(VASH-1)in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients at different stages of urinary albumin to creatinineratio(UACR)and to attempt to investigate the relationship between VASH-1 and inflammation and fibrosis in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy(DN), one of the microvascular complications of T2DM. Methods 486 patients with T2DMwere divided into four groups:normal albuminuria [ UACR<30 mg/ g, n = 134], microalbuminuria [ UACR at 30-300 mg/ g, n = 122], clinical albuminuria [UACR > 300 mg/ g, n = 106 ], and clinical albuminuria hypertensive [ UACR > 300 mg/ g, with hypertension, n=124] groups. Age, course, serum levels ofVASH1, inflammation markers(CRP, ESR)and fibrosis marker( TGF-β1) with other biochemical indicators were measured, and 130 normal control subjects were also included. Results Compared with normal control group, the levels of UACR, HbA1C ,ESR, CRP, TGF-β1 and VASH-1 in groups ofnormal albuminuria, microalbuminuria, clinical albuminuria, and clinical albuminuria hypertensive were significantly higher(P<0. 05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that levels of VASH-1 were positively correlated with UACR, HbA1C ,ESR, CRPand TGF-β1( r = 0. 521, 0. 261, 0. 519, 0. 523, 0. 479, P<0. 001), while multivariate regression analysis showed that levels of UACR, HbA1C ,ESR, CRP and TGF-β1 were important factors affecting serum VASH-1 levels. Conclusion Serum levels of VASH-1 may become new biomarkers of early diagnosis of DN. Consequently, VASH-1 level may provide a new pattern and direction of inflammation and fibrosis for consideration in diabetic kidney damage.

In this study, 17 kinds of Dendrobium species of Fengdous including 39 individuals were collected from 4 provinces. Mitochondrial gene sequences co I, nad 5, nad 1-intron 2 and chloroplast gene sequences rbcL, matK amd psbA-trnH were amplified from these materials, as well as nrDNA ITS. Furthermore, suitable sequences for identification of Dendrobium species of Fengdous were screened by K-2-P and P-distance. The results showed that during the mentioned 7 sequences, nrDNA ITS, nad 1-intron 2 and psbA-trnH which had a high degree of variability could be used to identify Dendrobium species of Fengdous. However, single fragment could not be used to distinguish D. moniliforme and D. huoshanense. Moreover, compared to other combined fragments, new type combined fragments nrDNA ITS+nad 1-intron 2 was more effective in identifying the original plants of Dendrobium species and could be used to identify D. huoshanense and D. moniliforme. Besides, according to the UPGMA tree constructed with nrDNA ITS+nad 1-intron 2, 3 inspected Dendrobium plants were identified as D. huoshanense, D. moniliforme and D. officinale, respectively. This study identified Dendrobium species of Fengdous by combined fragments nrDNA ITS+nad 1-intron 2 for the first time, which provided a more effective basis for identification of Dendrobium species. And this study will be helpful for regulating the market of Fengdous.
