Objective To observe the pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG), estradiol-stimulated protein 1 (ESP1) expressions in S, G 2/M phases in A549, SPC-A-1 cell lines. Methods The mammalian cells for cell cycle was synchronizated by thymidine, the total RNA in the S, G 2/M phases was collected, and the total RNA was observed by Real-time PCR. Results PTTG expression in A549 and SPC-A-1 cell lines was higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase while no PTTG expression in MRC-5 cells in S, G 2/M phases. ESP1 expression in A549, SPC-A-1, MRC-5 cell lines was lower in S phase than that in G 2/M phase. Conclusion That no PTTG in S and G 2/M phases in the normal cell line and PTTG expression in the lung cancer cell line higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase suggested that the aneuploidy may be caused by the overexpression of PTTG. ESP1 expression was lower in S phase than G 2/M phase in all of the three cell lines, suggesting that sister chromatids separation depend on the active ESP1.

AIM: To study the protective effects of HIF-1α gene transfection on hypoxic injury in human HepG2 cells. METHODS: After gene transfection, HepG2 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups: normoxia with Ad-GFP transfected group, normoxia with Ad-HIF-1 transfected group, hypoxia with Ad-GFP transfected group and hypoxia with Ad-HIF-1 transfected group. LDH leaking rate, cell viability, contents of NO and ROS, the iNOS activity were measured. RESULTS: High levels of HIF-1α mRNA and protein were detected in Ad-HIF transfected HepG2 cells. Cell viability was significantly lower in Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than that in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05). No marked difference of cell viability was found between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group. ROS was significantly higher in Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than that in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05), while no marked difference was found either between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group or between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group. The content of NO and iNOS activity were significantly higher in Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group than those in Ad-GFP transfected-normoxia group (P<0.05), no marked difference was found either between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-GFP transfected-hypoxia group or between Ad-HIF transfected-hypoxia group and Ad-HIF transfected-normoxia group. CONCLUSION: Higher HIF-1α expression is contributed to protective effects against hypoxic injury in HepG2 cells, the mechanisms of which may be correlated with promoting expression of gene regulated by HIF-1 and restraining over-expression of injure factors.

Objective To investigate the effects of Zuogui Jiangtang Yishen decoction (ZGJTYS) on the expression of nephrin and podocin in podocyte of MKR mice with diabetic nephropathy (DN), and explore its mechanism. Methods Forty MKR mice (8 weeks old) were randomly divided into four groups as follows:negative control group (group A), DN model group (group B), ZGJTYS group (group C) and positive control group (group D, Gliquidone and benazepri). All mice from group B, C and D were received high-fat diet feed and unilateral nephrectomy. Four weeks after operation, all mice were received drug intervention, and four weeks later, all mice were put to death. The levels of UmAlb were observed by ELISA, the serum BUN and Cr by biochemical, and the FBG by electrochemical detection method. The nephrin and podocin mRNA expression were measured by RT-PCR and the protein expression by western blotting. The morphological structure changes of the podocytes were observed by transmission electron microscopes. Results As compared with group A, FBG, BUN, SCr and urine UmAlb in the mice of group B increased significantly (P<0.01), the expression level of nephrin and podocin mRNA and protein were markedly decreased (P<0.01). After intervention of drugs, all biochemical indicators above in the mice of group C and D significantly decreased (P<0.01), the expression level of nephrin and podocin mRNA and protein were markedly increased (P<0.01, P<0.05), compared with group B. The renal pathological lesions of group C and D were significantly improved compared with group B. Conclusion ZGJTYS decoction exerts reno-protective effect via reinstating nephrin and podocin expression to repair the damaged podocyte.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for the failure of noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) in the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD),and to help the clinical risk assessment and decision making.Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted.The patients with AECOPD undergoing NIV admitted to Kaifeng Emergency Center from June 2011 to March 2016 were enrolled,and they were divided into two groups according to whether NIV was successful or not within 12 hours.The nutritional status,blood gas analysis,serum electrolytes,D-dimer,renal function,serum pre-albumin,as well as kinetic vital signs,Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score,expression of respiratory distress,and spontaneous expectoration were recorded.Logistic forward stepwise regression analysis was used to analyze the factors for failure of NIV.Results 122 patients.with the initial NIV were enrolled,with NIV failure in 41 patients within 12 hours,accounted for 33.6％.Compared with NIV success group,the percents of respiratory rate ≥ 25 breaths/min (75.6％ vs.17.3％),expectoration disorders (78.0％ vs.19.8％),circulatory disorders (61.0％ vs.18.5％),malnutrition (61.0％ vs.11.1％),decreased serum pre-albumin (58.5％ vs.17.3％),and GCS score ＜ 12 (75.6％ vs.28.4％) in NIV failure group were significantly increased (all P ＜ 0.05).But there were no significant differences in gender,age,body temperature,blood gas analysis,D-dimer,serum creatinine between two groups.It was shown by the results of binary logistic regression analysis that respiratory rate,expectoration disorders,circulatory disorders,malnutrition,serum pre-albumin,and GCS score were the factors of NIV failure [odds ratio (OR) values were 10.879,6.338,9.860,23.273,8.862,6.774,and P values were 0.011,0.038,0.024,0.003,0.015,0.041,respectively].It was shown by the results of logistic stepwise regression analysis that respiratory rate ≥ 25 breaths/min,expectoration disorders,circulatory disorders,malnutrition,decreased serum pre-albumin,and GCS score ＜ 12 were independent risk factors of NIV failure (OR values were 6.610,5.403,5.138,8.153,4.979,5.100,and P values were 0.007,0.013,0.023,0.007,0.027,0.023,respectively).Conclusions The multiple independent risk factors can induce NIV failure within 12 hours in emergency patients with AECOPD,i.e.increased respiratory rate,expectoration dysfunction,circulatory disorders,malnutrition,decreased serum pre-albumin,and decreased GCS score.Emergency physicians should pay attention to these early risk factors in AECOPD patients,which can be taken as correct judgment and guide.
