Objective To observe the relationship between vasoactive substances and blood pressure in old patients with hypertension.Method Venous blood was drawn from 35 old hypertension patients when blood pressure was normal and abnormal,respectively.Epinephrine(E),norepinephine(NE),endothelins(ET),angiotensin ll (Angll) and ealcitonin-gene-retated peptide were determined by radio-immunity.The above five cytokines were also determined in 33 old healthy people.The cytokines levels were compared between the normal and abnormal blood pressure in hypertension patients and also between the old hypertension patients and healthy persons.The correlation between blood pressure and cytokines were analyzed.Results The level of ET,Angll,E and NE were obviously increased in old hypertension patients when their blood pressure was abnormal,while CGRP obviously decreased.No difference was found in the five cytokines between two groups when the blood pressure were normal.The correlation analysis showed that systolic pressure had positive correlation with ET,AnglI and E(r=0.304,0.337,0.587,P=0.031,0.019,0.036)and negative correlation with CGRP(r=-0.416,P=0.028)in old hypertension patients when the blood pressure was abnormal.And the diastolic pressure had positive correlation with AnglI and E(r=0.357,0.333;P=0.039,0.028).ET had positive correlation with Angll and E(r=0.361,0.315;P=0.041,0.029).Conclusion The levels of vasoaetive substances significantly changed in old hypertension patients with the blood pressure change.Among those cytokines,the substances that contract blood vessel increased most obviously.The vasoactive substances played an important role in the progress of blood pressure rising.

Objective To explore frequency distribution of vitamin D receptor (VDR) genotype and the correlations between polymorphism of VDR gene Bsm Ⅰ sites and bone mineral density in the patients undergoing maintenance peritoneal dialysis.Methods A case-control study was conducted based on 82 patients with maintenance peritoneal dialysis and 80 healthy people.The frequency distribution of VDR genotype in two groups was detected and analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).Serum biochemistry and bone mineral density of the patients undergoing maintenance peritoneal dialysis were detected by dual energy X-ray absorption (DEXA) and automatic biochemical analyzer,respectively.All data was analyzed with SPSS 19.0 software.Results The frequency distribution of VDR genotype between case group and control group had no significant difference (P > 0.05).The serum biochemical index such as Ca,P,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and parathyroid hormone (PTH)] of patients with maintenance peritoneal dialysis had no significant difference among three VDR genotypes(P >0.05).Compared to VDR bb genotype,the serum Ca was significantly higher in VDR BB genotype (P <0.05).The bone mineral density (BMD) and T-Score of patients with VDR BB genotype were the lowest,the BB genotype was the highest,and the difference was statistically significant among three genotypes (P <0.05).Conclusions The frequency distribution of VDR genotype between case group and control group had no significant difference.However,there is a correlation between VDR gene BsmⅠ sites and bone mineral density of maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients.

Objective:To observe the the effects of sustained-release coatings of HU-308 on the biological characteristics of rat oste-oblasts(ROBs)on Ti surface.Methods:The heparin/chitosan sustained release coatings containing HU-308 at different concentra-tions were prepared by layer-by-layer assembly technology on the alkali-and heat-treated Ti surface.The alkali-and heat-treated Ti samples were randomly divided into six groups,the samples in C group were used as control,in P group were treated by heparin/chi-tosan coatings and in T1,T2,T3 and T4 groups were treated by heparin/chitosan sustained-release coating containing HU-308 at dif-ferent concentrations.The adhesion,proliferation and ALP activity of ROBs cultured on the coatings were assessed at different times. Results:The adhesion,proliferation and ALP activity of ROBs of T4 group (the impregnating concentration of HU-308 was 0.025 mg/L)were the highest.Conclusion:The sustained-release coating with low concentration of HU-308 may improve the adhesion , proliferation and ALP activity of ROBs.

The manifestation of clinical symptoms of cerebral small-vessel disease (SVD) is cognitive disorders. Its pathological changes are manifested as leukoaraiosis and/or lacunar infarction. However, it is not clear whether cognitive disorders caused by SVD is correlated with the severity of white matter damage. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis can noninvasively detect metabolite concentrations of brain tissue in vivo and directly reflect cerebral metabolism; Diffusion-tensor imaging is a novel noninvasive technique for specific observation of white matter through different parameters such as mean diffusivity and anisotropy for quantitative evaluation of the abnormalities of fine structure of white matter. The combination of magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis and diffusion-tensor imaging may more sensitively reveal the severity of white matter damage, and provide a research tool for cognitive disorders caused by SVD.resonance imaging

Protein-coding transcriptome,pseudogenes,long non-coding RNAs and circular RNAs can act as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA).ceRNA can crosstalk with each other through microRNA recognition elements (MRE),thus regulating the post-transcriptional gene expression.More and more evidences showed that ceRNA could form an extensive network of post-transcription regulation,keep the cell homeostasis and involve in the disease development and progression like tumorigenesis and cancer progression.Depending on up-regulation or down-regulation of different kinds of microRNA in different cells,ceRNA acts as either an oncogene or a tumor suppressor.ceRNA may have a great potential in cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To study the range of the reference value of static posturography parameters in normal subjects. Methods Six hundred and eleven normal subjects were recruited. Static standing balance test of these subjects was performed by use of a computerized stabilometer with their eyes opened and closed,respectively,when their feet standing close and apart. Ten parameters were obtained. 95% confidence ranges were calculated using normal distribution methods,which were grouped by sex and age. Results Statistically significant differences of the 95% confidence ranges of equilibrium parameters were found among different sex and age groups,feet positions and eyes conditions,respectively. The value of the parameters of the male was higher than that of the female;the value of the equilibrium parameters was the lowest in the age group of 15~19 years,and the highest in 66~79 age group;and there were no significant differences among 20~35,36~50 and 51~65 age groups. The value of various parameters in standing with feet close was higher than that with feet apart. It was higher with eyes closed than that with eyes opened. Conclusion Sex,age,feet position and visual input affect balance function.
