1.Rutin inhibits hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in human lens epithelial cells
Acta Universitatis Medicinalis Anhui 2015;(8):1107-1110
Objective To explore whether PI3K/ AKT signaling pathway participates in the inhibiting effect of Ru-tin on H2 O2-induced apoptosis in human lens epithelial cells( HLEC). Methods HLEC were divided into four groups: control group,H2 O2 group,rutin group,LY294002 group. Cell survival rates were determined by a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay; cell apoptosis rates were monitored by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC and propidiun iodide(PI) staining. Western blot was used to measure the expres-sion levels of AKT and p-AKT. Results H2 O2 induced HLEC apoptosis. Compared with H2 O2 group,rutin group not only increased the expression lever of p-AKT,but also reduced cell apoptosis rate(P < 0. 01). In LY294002 group, LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K/ AKT signaling pathway,could significantly block the change of these inde-xes produced by rutin group(P < 0. 01), but no significant change compared with H2 O2 group. Conclusion Rutin inhibits H2 O2-induced cell apoptosis and may be associated with PI3K/ AKT signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of transcatheter atrial septal defect(ASD) closure with deficient rim.Methods:From January 2017 to November 2019, patients at the Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Chengdu Women′s and Children′s Central Hospital were diagnosed as the secondary ASD and divided into 2 groups based on whether it has deficient rim[the deficient rim group (experimental group) and non deficient rims group (control group)]. The complications should be followed for 1-2 years.Results:A total of 66 patients, including 17 males (25.8%) and 49 females (74.2%), had the median age of 4 years and 2 months (2 years and 1 month-16 years), and the median body mass was 15.0 kg, ranging from 9.0 kg to 60.0 kg, with 23 cases (34.8%) in the experimental group and 43 cases (65.1%) in the control group.There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, body weight, size of ASD, fluoroscopic dose, electrocardiogram, and pulmonary artery pressure between the two groups (all P>0.05). The immediate success rate was 95.4%(63/66 cases). There were no statistically significant differences between the surgical success rate [91.3%(21/23 cases) vs.97.6%(42/43 cases)] and the incidence of residual shunt [30.4%(7/23 cases) vs.16.2%(7/43 cases)](all P>0.05). And there were no statistically significant differences of the incidence of residual shunt between groups at each follow-up point ( P>0.05). No arrhythmia occurred in the experimental group during follow-up, and 1 case of atrioventricular block in the control group persisted until the time of publication.A total of 4 cases of frequent atrial premature beats or non-paroxysmal atrial tachycardia returned to normal at the follow-up node 6 months after intervention. Conclusions:Under the selection of appropriate cases and skilled catheter technology, the transcatheter treatment of ASD in children with deficient rims is feasible.
