Objective To observe longitudinal motion characteristics of regional myocardium in left bundle branch block(LBBB) patients. Methods Left ventricular regional myocardium of 15 LBBB patients and 15 normal subjects were assessed by tissue Doppler imaging(TDI). Peak velocities(V_S,V_E,V_A) during isovolumic contraction, ejection, isovolumic relaxation, early relaxation, atrial systole phases and maximum time velocity integral(TVI_(max)), displacement(D_(max)) in mitral(tricuspidal) annulets of different walls were measured. Furthermore, the different parameters from the beginning of electrocardiogram QRS wave to the beginning of S wave(Q-Sb),to the tip of S wave(TTP), the acceleration time of IVC wave(IVA), the acceleration time of the E wave(Eac),the durations of different phases(IVC,S,IVR,D)and IVC/S and others were acquired. Results Peak velocities(V_S,V_E)and TVI_(max) in left ventricular septal, inferior, anterior, posterior walls were lower in LBBB group than control group; those parameters in different segments of left and right ventricular lateral myocardium were not significantly lower in LBBB group than control group. What is more, D_(max) of mitral annular sites in LBBB group were lower than control group. Q-Sb, TTP and IVC in left ventricular septal, inferior, anterior, posterior walls were longer in LBBB group than in control group; IVA lengthened, Eac and Edc shortened in left ventricular septal, inferior walls; IVR lengthened, diastole shortened, IVC/S increased in left ventricular septal, inferior, and posterior walls. Conclusions Abnormal left ventricular activation sequence during LBBB caused obvious impairment in total and regional systolic and diastolic function. And delayed contraction with different degrees were resulted from different walls of left ventricle with intraventricular dyssynchrony; but contraction in right ventricle was not significantly delayed, with interventricular dyssynchrony.

AIM:The main purpose of this study is to investigate the regulatory role of C/EBP? in mouse vesicular glutamate transporter 2(mVGLUT2) gene expression. METHODS:The promoter region of mVGLUT2 was cloned to PGL3-basic vector. Site-direction mutation was used to identify the CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein ?(C/EBP?) binding site. The promoter activity was observed by luciferase system. The binding between C/EBP? protein and mVGLTU2 promoter region was determined by EMSA. The C/EBP? gene expression was inhibited by its specific siRNA. RESULTS:mVGLUT2 promoter activity decreased about 50% after mutation of C/EBP? binding site. EMSA showed that C/EBP? protein bound onto mVGLUT2 promoter region. Meanwhile,when C/EBP? gene expression was inhibited by its specific siRNA,mVGLUT2 promoter activity,mRNA level and protein level were decreased about 60%,40% and 45%,respectively. CONCLUSION:C/EBP? is involved in the regulation of mVGLUT2 gene expression.
