Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion(MI/R) injury refers to restoring blood perfusion after myocardial ischemia for a relatively long time, but the tissue appears more obvious and severe myocardial damage and dysfunction than before reperfusion, this phenomenon mainly relates to inflammation, oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, cell autophagy and so on.NF-κB is a nuclear transcription factor involved in regulating a variety of pathophysiological processes, which also plays an important role in all aspects of MI/R injury.The in-depth study of NF-κB in MI/R injury and clinical application of related research will provide new ideas and methods for treating MI/R injury.

MicroRNA (miRNA) plays a regulating function in translation stage of gene expression.MiRNA has been found directly involving in the occurrence and development of pancreatic cancer,and its abnormal expression is closely related to early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and may provide new therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer patients.MiRNA detection will have good application prospect in on the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To evaluate the mental status of malignant hematologic patients, explore the morbidity of depression in malignant hematologic patients, and investigate valid interventional treatment on them. Methods 134 malignant hematologic patients were evaluated by SDS and HAMD, and 49 patientswere selected who was diagnosed depressive disorder then randomly divided into 2 groups. One was experimental group and the other control group. The patients of experimental group were treated with antidepressant drug and mental intervention during common therapy, while the patients of control group only took common therapy. The change of immunological function after treatment was detected. Results The morbidity of depression in malignant hematologic patients was 37 %. The scores of SDS and HAMD were significandy decreased and the depressive symptoms were notablely improved in experimental group and there were significant differences after treatment and before treatment (P <0.01), but there was no significant difference in control group (P >0.1). The NPY plasma levels significantly increased after treatment in experimental group(P <0.01), but there was no significant difference in control group(P >0.05); the CD+4/CD+4 values of patients in the experimental group were significantly increased after treatments. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in the experimental group patients between pre-treat and after-treat (P <0,05),but no obvious difference in the patients of control group (P>0.5). Conclusion Mental intervention and antidepressive treatment can improve all of the depression, immunological function and quality of life of malignant hematologic patients.

Objective To quantitatively assess renal hemodynamic changes in hypertensive acute kidney injury in rabbits induced by L-NAME using 64-slice spiral CT functional imaging techniques,and to explore the application of these techniques in evaluation of early kidney functional changes.Methods Fourteen female New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into normal control group (n=6)and L-NAME group (n=8).The control group was injected NaCl solution and the L-NAME group was injected the same amount of L-NAME solution to make hypertensive acute kidney injury model.64-slice spiral CT and SPECT were scanned af-ter injection.Blood samples were collected before and after injecting NaCl and L-NAME solution to detect serum creatinine (Cr).Cr level and CT perfusion parameters of the two groups were analyzed and compared with the pathology results.GFRCT detected by con-trast-enhanced CT and GFRSPECT detected by SPECT were analyzed by the rank correlation test.Results Renal blood volume,blood flow,permeability surface,time to peak,and peak value had statistically significant differences between the control and L-NAME group (P <0.05).GFRCT and GFRSPECT had obvious correlation.GFRCT of L-NAME group was obviously lower than that of the con-trol group.The kidneys of L-NAME group showed obviously injured under both light microscope and microscope.Conclusion 64-slice spiral CT functional imaging techniques can dynamically observe and quantitatively assess early hypertensive kidney dysfunc-tion,especially unilateral renal blood flow abnormalities.It is an effective examination in quantitatively assessing kidney function.

Objective To investigate the effects of sirolimus and 3-methyladenine (3-MA) on the autophagy in,as well as matrix matalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and MMP-3 secretion by,human skin fibroblasts (HSFs).Methods HSFs were isolated from the circumcised foreskin of a healthy male,and subjected to primary culture.After 3 to 10 passages,HSFs were incubated with sirolimus of 20,50,100,250 nmol/L and 3-MA of 0.5,2.0,5.0,10.0 mmol/L respectively for 4 hours followed by the observation of autophagy and detection of MMP-1 and MMP-3 levels in the supernatant by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Those HSFs remaining untreated or treated with dimethyl sulfoxide served as the control.Results The percentage of autophagy-positive cells was 59.075％ ± 6.884％,76.350％ ± 5.226％,85.063％ ± 6.002％,86.288％ ± 5.558％ and 96.825％ ± 1.500％ respectively in HSFs treated with sirolimus of 0,20,50,100 and 250 nmol/L; significant differences were observed between the 5 groups (P ＜ 0.01 ) but not between the cells treated with sirolimus of 50 and 100 nmol/L (P ＞ 0.05).After being treated with 3-MA of 0,0.5,2.0,5.0 and 10.0 mmol/L,the percentage of autophagy-positive cells in HSFs was 63.037％ ± 5.876％,34.425％ ± 5.183％,19.700％ ± 3.028％,12.900％ ± 3.334％ and 7.775％ ± 2.293％ respectively with a significant difference between these groups (all P ＜ 0.01 ).Elevated levels of MMP-1 and MMP-3 were observed in the supernatant of HSFs treated with sirolimus of 250 nmol/L and 3-MA of 10.0 mmol/L (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The autophagy in HSFs can be upregulated by sirolimus,but downregulated by 3-MA.For the secretion of MMPs by HSFs,3-MA and high concentrations of sirolimus exert a promotive effect,and the effect of 3-MA is in a concentration-related manner,but the influences of sirolimus at lower concentrations remain unclear.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and toxicity of reduced dose idarubicin and cytarabine,semustine(IAS) regimen as induction therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.MethodsA total of fifty-eight newly acute myeloid leukemia(AML) patients were randomly divided into 2 groups,including 30 cases with IAS regimen,28 cases with DA regimen The IAS regimen was treated with reduced dose idarubicin (8 ～ 10 mg/m2,days 1 to 3) and cytarabine( 100 ～ 150 mg/m2,days 1 to 7),semustine(200mg,d0).The DA regimen was treated with daunorubicin(40 ～60 mg/m2,days 1 to 3) and cytarabine ( 100 ～ 150 mg/m2,days 1 to 7).The responses ( CR and overall response rate ) were compared between the 2 groups.Results Complete remission(CR) rate in IAS and DA groups were 24 of 30( 80.0％ ) and 16 of 28 (57.1％ ) respectively,while the overall response rate were 26 of 30 ( 86.7％ ) and 18 of 28 ( 64.3％ ) respectively.There was significant difference in CR rate and overall response rate between IAS group and DA group( P ＜ 0.05 ).Myelosuppression and infections due to neutropenia were the most frequent adverse effects,severe nonhematologic toxicity was not observed.The incidence rates of toxicities in the 2 groups were not significantly different ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion The effect of reduced dose idarubicin and cytarabine,semustine regimen in the treatment for acute myeloid leukemia is superior to that of DA regimen,and the toxicities are tolerable.IAS regimen can be as the optional induction therapy in newly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

ObjectiveTo explore the role of BTBD10 overexpression in the proliferation of insulinoma cell line INS-1and its mechanism. MethodsThe recombined expression plasmid of pcDNA4.0-BTBD10 was constructed by gene cloning technique and was transfected into INS-1 cell by lipofectamine 2000. The stable overexpression BTBD10 of INS-1cell was selected at 48th hour after transfection.INS-1 cell proliferation activity was measured by MTT method.The expression of BTBD10,protein kinase B(Akt),phospho-Akt(p-Akt),mammal target of rapamycin (mTOR) and phospho-mTOR (p-mTOR) were determined by Western blot.ResultsThe stable overexpression BTBD10 of INS-1 cell wassuccessfullyconstructed.OverproductionofBTBD10promotedbetacellproliferation.The phosphorylation of Akt and mTOR was increased and the ratio of p-Akt/Akt and p-mTOR/mTOR was enhanced in the INS-1 overexpressed by BTBD10.But the expression of total Akt and mTOR presented no obvious changes. Conclusion The overexpression BTBD10 of INS-1 cell could activate of Akt/mTOR signalling pathway via stimulating phospho-mTOR and Akt,and enhance overall cell protein translation,so as to promote proliferation of INS-1 cell.

Objective To investigate the effects of triptolide on the expression of a series of proteins associated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ)signaling in HaCaT keratinocytes.Methods After pretreatment with difrerent dosages of triptolide(10-10-10-7 mol/L),HaCaT cells were stimulated by recombinant human IFN-γ(rhIFN-γ,500 U/mL)for various periods followed by the collection of cells.Then,total protein was extracted from these cells and subjected to Western blotting for the detection of expression of interferon-γ receptor α(IFN-γRα),phosphorylated Janus kinase 2(pJAK2)and suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS1).Results Triptolide at the concentrations of 10-8 mol/L and 10-7 mol/L significantly inhibited the IFN-γRα expression upregulated by rhIFN-γ(both P＜0.05).The expression of pJAK2 induced bv rhIFN-γ was also suppressed by triptolide at the concentrations of 10-9 moI/L and 10-8 mol/L(both P＜0.05).The inhibition of triptolide on IFN-γRα and pJAK2 expression was dose-dependent and the 50%inhibitory concentrations(IC50 value)were 1.37×10-8 mol/L and 2.83×10-9 mol/L,respectively.On the contrary,triptolide upregulated the expression of SOCS1 stimulated by rhIFN-γ at the concentrations of 10-10,10-9 and 10-8 mol/L(P＜0.05,0.05,0.01,respectively)with the 50%effective dosage(ED50 value)at 3.32 × 10-11 mol/L.Conclusions By inhibiting the expression of IFN-γRα as well as phosphorylation of JAK2 and upregulating the expression of SOCS1,triptolide inhibits the phosphorylation of STAT-1,resulting in the inhibition of genetic transcription of multiple inflammatory factors induced by IFN-γ signaling in HaCaT keratinocytes,and the inhibition probably contributes to the efficacy of triptolide in the treatment of IFN-γ-dependent inflammatory skin disorders,such as psoriasis.

Objective To observe the changes of autophagy in human skin fibroblast (HSF) model for photoaging. Methods HSF model for photoaging was established through repeated exposure to ultraviolet B (UVB). Those HSFs receiving no irradiation served as the control. The degree of aging was evaluated by p-galactosidase assay, and autophagy level was detected. Results After repeated exposure to UVB, most pho-toaged HSFs were deformed and distorted, and some of them even died. The percentage of P-galactosidase-positive cells was 50.60% ± 5.04% and 14.58% ± 2.69%, respectively in photoaged and control HSFs (P< 0.01). Significant difference was also observed in the proportion of cytophagosome-positive cells between photoaged and control HSFs (14.91% ± 4.59% vs 68.45% ± 8.25%, P < 0.01). Conclusion The HSF model for photoaging shows obviously abnormal appearance and stagnant growth with increased degree of senescence and decreased autophagy compared with normal control HSFs.
