This study is to investigate the protective effect of rosiglitazone (RSG) against learning and memory impairment of APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. AD mice model was replicated by using 6-month APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. The learning and memory ability of mice was evaluated by Morris water maze and Western blotting assays was applied to measure the phosphorylation and O-glycosylation of Tau and neurofilaments (NFs) protein. The results demonstrated that RSG could reverse the learning and memory deficits of 3 x Tg mice significantly. It was also found that RSG could suppress the hyperphosphorylation of Tau and NFs protein levels and increase the glycosylation expression of Tau and NFs proteins in 3 x Tg mice brain. Together, RSG ameliorates cognitive impairments of 3 x Tg mice via the alleviation of the hyperphosphorylated Tau and NFs proteins burden in the brain.

Objective:To investigate the expression of mmp-2 in mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(MsPGN) rat renal tissue and the effects of nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM. Methods: 54 Male SD rats were divided into control group, MsPGN group and treatment group with nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM. Immunohistochemical staining, flow cytometry, western blot and RT-PCR were used to check the protein expression of mmp-2. Results: In MsPGN group, following with the disease progressing, the glomerulus grew graduatly, ECM increased, the basement membrane of glomerulus was thicker. The immunohistochemical staining showed that the chief positive granules were deposited in glomerulus and renal tubular, the expression of mmp-2 was lower than that in control group, but in treatment group the expression of mmp-2 was higher than that in MsPGN group. Conclusion: In MsPGN renal tissue, the expression of mmp-2 was reduced, its activity was weakened. Nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM could induce the expression of MMP-2 and partly recover the activity. Nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM could resist glomerular sclerosis and postpone the course of chronic renal failure.

Objective:To investigate the effects of recombinant adenovirus with human vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (Ad-hVEGF 165) and recombinant adenovirus with human tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (Ad-hTIMP-1) on rats with myocardial infarction (MI) and its mechanism. Methods:A total of 30 healthy 8-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham-operated group (sham), virus control group (Ad-Track), Ad-hVEGF 165 group, Ad-hTIMP-1 group and Ad-hVEGF 165+Ad-hTIMP-1 group (hVEGF 165+hTIMP-1) ( n=6 per group). Except the sham group, all rats were ligated the left anterior descending coronary artery to induce MI model with ST-segment elevation and Q waves or T-wave inversion on electrocardiogram and local myocardial whitening. The corresponding recombinant adenovirus comprising 100 μL (1×10 10 VP/100 μL) combined with NaCl solution was injected into the myocardial infarction area at four points respectively. The sham group received no treatment. After 4 weeks, all rats were sacrificed after echocardiography was completed and heart tissues were collected. The expression of hVEGF 165 and hTIMP-1 were detected by immunohistochemistry. The mRNA expression of apoptosis-related factors were detected by real-time PCR. The protein expression of apoptosis-related factors were detected by immunohistochemistry. Differences between groups were determined by One-way analysis of variance. Multiple comparisons between groups were performed using the least significant difference t-test. Results:(1) Both heart rate (HR) (480.83±24.09) beats/min, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) (6.88±0.44) mm and left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD) (4.85±0.42) mm were increased in the Ad-Track group than those in the sham group (433.16±17.86) beats/min, (6.20±0.45) mm, (4.06±0.70) mm (all P<0.05), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (62.70±3.17) % and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) (29.52±1.88) % were significantly decreased in the Ad-Track group than those in the sham group (72.78±5.44)%, (29.52±1.88) % (both P<0.01). Compared with the Ad-Track group, LVEF (71.50±6.23) % and LVFS (36.17±5.27) % in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were significantly increased (both P<0.01), and LVEDD (6.22±0.39) mm and LVESD (4.13±0.23) mm were decreased (both P<0.05). LVEF and LVFS in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were increased significantly than those in the Ad-hVEGF 165 group (64.65±4.00) %, (30.95±2.57) % (both P<0.05). The mRNA expression of BCL2-associated X protein (Bax), cysteine aspartate specific proteinase 3 (Caspase-3) and BCL-xL/BCL-2-associated death promoter (Bad) in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were decreased than those in the Ad-Track group ( P<0.01 or P<0.05), and B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were increased than those in the Ad-Track group ( P<0.01). The mRNA expression levels of Bax and Caspase-3 in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were decreased than those in the Ad-hVEGF 165 group (both P<0.05). There was no statistically difference in the mRNA expression of Bax, Caspase-3, Bad, and Bcl-2 between the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group and the sham group (all P>0.05). The protein expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group were significantly decreased than those in the Ad-hVEGF 165 group, the Ad-hTIMP-1 group and the Ad-Track group (all P<0.01), and the protein expression of Bcl-2 in the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group was increased than those in the Ad-hVEGF 165 group, the Ad-hTIMP-1 group and the Ad-Track group (all P<0.05). There were no statistically differences in the protein expression of Bax, Caspase-3 and Bcl-2 between the hVEGF 165-hTIMP-1 group and the sham group (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Ad-hVEGF 165 and Ad-hTIMP-1 can improve cardiac contractile function of MI rats and the beneficial effects are largely attributable to inhibiting myocyte apoptosis. The combination of hVEGF 165 and hTIMP-1 may have a synergistic effect on MI.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib-based chemotherapy and MPT regimen in the MM patients who were newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory. Methods Twenty-seven MM patients were treated with bortezomib-based chemotherapy, median cycles:3 (range 1-5 cycles). Other 30patients received MPT chemotherapy. EBMT and WHO criteria were used to evaluate the therapeutic effects and the adverse effects, respectively. Results Bortezomib group: 21 patients (77.8 %) showed effects after the first cycle chemotherapy and 24 patients (88.8 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 15 patients(94.0 %) and 9 patients (82.0 %) were newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory, respectively. MPT group: 15patients (50.0 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 12 patients (44.0 %) were newly diagnosed.And the other 3 were relapsed/refractory patients. The ORR in Bortezomib group was better than MPT group (P ＜0.05). The incidence of peripheral neuropathy, herpes and Ⅲ - Ⅳ grade thrombocytopenia in the bortezomib group was 10 patients (37.0 %), 7patients (26.0 %), 10 patients (37.0 %) respectively,and they were more common than MPT group, but the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳgrade anemia was 21 patients (70.0 %) and more comumom in the MPT group. The theraputic efficacy of bortezomib for renal insufficiency and normal renal function patients was similar, and no significant increase in all kinds of adverse effects. In MPT group,there were 4 patients with renal insufficiency, the serum level of creatinine in the 3 patients returned to normal after 5 cycles therapy. Conclusion Bortezomib-based chemotherapy is more effective than MPT regimen in the treatment of MM. The newly diagnosed, relapsed/ refractory and with renal insufficiency patients all can benefit from it. The adverse effects are mild and with better tolerance.
