1.Role of microRNA in hematological malignancies
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2009;25(11):2225-2229
MicroRNA ( miRNA) is a family of 19 - 24 nucleotides small non - coding RNA in eukaryotic organisms , which can regulate genes at the post - transcriptional level. miRNA has been shown to be involved in a variety of cellular processes such as development, proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis etc, and is closely related to the oncogene-sis. Recent study indicates that several miRNAs play an important role in initiation and progression of hematological malignancies. miRNA expression profiling has identified signatures associated with diagnoses, prognoses and therapy of hematological malignancies. The review discusses miRNA and its biogenesis, functional mechanisms and potential role in the diagnosis , prognoses and therapy of hematological malignancies.

This study aims to investigate the effect of total flavones of Fructus Chorspondiatis (TFFC) on the mRNA and protein expression of collagen type I and III of rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) induced by angiotensin II (Ang II), and explore its anti-myocardial fibrosis molecular mechanism. Neonatal rat CFs were prepared from Sprague-Dawley rats (1-3 d after birth). The expression of collagen type I and III mRNA and protein were measured by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The study showed that stimulation of neonatal rat CFs with 100 nmol.L-1 of Ang II for 72 h resulted in a significant increase of the expression of collagen type I and III mRNA and protein. The changes on the expression level were blocked by TFFC. The results demonstrated that TFFC can inhibit myocardial fibrosis induced by Ang II in rats, which is probably associated with the collagen type I and III mRNA and protein levels up-regulated by Ang II, and TFFC was shown to decrease the expression levels of collagen type I and III mRNA and protein.

Objective To explore the relationship of leptin,leptin receptor and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,and provide a scientific basis for prevention and treatment of esophageal cancer.Methods Samples were collected from 32 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,20 healthy control subjects in Shanxi Tumor Hospital.ELISA and immunohistochemistry were used to analyze leptin and leptin receptor,respectively.The correlation between their expression and clinicopathologieal parameters was also analysized.Results Patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma had significandy(t =4.64,P < 0.001)higher leptin levels [(4.7 ±1.9)ng/ml] compared with normal [(2.54±1.01)ng/ml] oesophagus tissues.The expression rate of leptin receptor in esophageal carcinoma and normal esophagus was 81.25 % and 75.00 % respectively,not differ significantly.The expression levels of leptin was associated with position,(l)ymphatic metastasis.Conclusion Higher leptin levels seem to represent an additional,independent risk factor for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,leptin receptor expression on oesophageal epithelial cells provides a pathway for leptin-mediated signal transduction.

Objective To assess under different vessel diameter ,the effect of the aspiration thrombectomy catheter in improving the myocardial reperfusion and clinical prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI)who were undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) .Methods 205 patients with AMI immediate implant stents after thrombus suction ,the TIMI flow grade(myocardial infarction thrombolysis treatment test flow classification ) ,postoperative ecg evolution ,incidence of no-reflow MACE in 30 days and MACE in 6 months were compared between conventional thrombus suction group and suction again group(blood vessels of <3 .0 mm and ≥3 .0 mm) .Results The level 3 blood flow rate ,MACE in 6 months in suction again group with blood vessels of ≥3 .0 mm had improved significantly ,but had no beneficial effects in blood vessels of ≥3 .0 mm .Conclusion In AMI patients treated with primary PCI ,application of aspiration thrombectomy catheter with blood vessels of ≥3 .0 mm may im-prove the flow condition before infarction related blood vessels ,reduce MACE .

Objective:To carry out investigation and analysis of an extensive skin radiation injury to the back accidentally caused by interventional procedure and to explore the problems faced in the event with emphasis on avoiding the reoccurance of similar events in the future.Methods:The data were collected by consulting the patient′s detailed medical history, collecting and analyzing clinical diagnosis and treatment data, tracking and observing their clinical manifestations and signs. The patient′s peripheral blood samples were also collected, together with the biological dose estimated and the equipment data collected on the site of the interventional treatment hospital.Results:The whole body dose to the patient was estimated to be 0.95 Gy. The typical values of kerma rate of radiation incident on the body surface due to fluoroscopic procedures were 373.5 mGy/min in subtraction modality and 47.8 mGy/min in fluoroscopy modality, respectively. The annual effective dose to the interventional radiologist was 20.51 mSv due to his operation in long-time radiation exposure conditions, higher than 3.09 mSv for other interventional radiologists with similar workload in the same department. The whole body and local clinical manifestations of the patients were in line with radiation injury. No clear diagnosis has been obtained in several hospitals, nor can obvious treatment outcomes be obsevered.Conclusion:Combined with the biological dose estimation result and clinical manifestations, the case was diagnosed as degree Ⅳ skin radiation injury. Radiation injury is closely related to whether the operation is conducted according to the standard and the output dose of X-ray machine. Non-specialized hospitals should strengthen clinical diagnosis and treatment of radiation injury.

Chinese Journal of Medical Genetics 2020;37(9):958-961
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the carrier rate of deafness-related genetic variants among 53 873 newborns from Zhengzhou.
METHODS:
Heel blood samples of the newborns were collected with informed consent from the parents, and 15 loci of 4 genes related to congenital deafness were detected by microarray.
RESULTS:
In total 2770 newborns were found to carry deafness-related variants, with a carrier rate of 5.142%. 1325 newborns (2.459%) were found to carry heterozygous variants of the GJB2 gene, 1071 (1.988%) were found with SLC26A4 gene variants, 205 were found with GJB3 gene variants (0.381%), and 120 were found with 12S rRNA variants (0.223%). Five newborns have carried homozygous GJB2 variants, two have carried homozygous SLC26A4 variants, five have carried compound heterozygous GJB2 variants, and four have carried compound heterozygous SLC26A4 variants. 33 neonates have carried heterozygous variants of two genes at the same time.
CONCLUSION
The carrier rate of deafness-related variants in Zhengzhou, in a declining order, is for GJB2, SLC26A4, GJB3 and 12S rRNA. The common variants included GJB2 235delC and SLC26A4 IVS7-2A>G, which are similar to other regions in China. To carry out genetic screening of neonatal deafness can help to identify congenital, delayed and drug-induced deafness, and initiate treatment and follow-up as early as possible.
