Uric acid is an end product of purine metabolism.Hyperuricemia is defined as serum uric acid level ＞420 μmol/L in man,and 360 μmol/L in woman.Several mechanisms can cause elevated serum uric acid levels.Systematic reviews and Meta-analyses have shown that hyperuricemia is significantly correlated with the increased morbidity and mortality in patients with ischemic stroke.However,as a powerful antioxidant and a radical scavenger,uric acid seems to have a neuroprotective effect in ischemic stroke.Uric acid administered early can enhance the effect of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) thrombolytic therapy in rats with thromboembolic stroke.Therefore,it is necessary to conduct a randomized controlled trial for the clinical effects of rtPA thrombolysis in combination with uric acid in patients with acute ischemic stroke.A phase 3 clinical trial is ongoing,and its results are worth waiting for.

Inhibitor of growth 2 (INC2 ) is a member of INC family, and cooperates with p53 in regulating cell cycle, apoptosis, and aging. It can also facilitate chromatin remodeling and transcription regulating through histone modifications. Researches suggest that INC2 protein is an important factor in the genesis, metastasis and prognosis of many kinds of tumors. Resent studies indicate that INC2 can not be simply classified as oncogene or tumor suppressor. At present, the function of INC2 in tumorigenesis and tumor development involves interaction with varied molecules, but the mechanisms remain largely unknown, which still require further investigation.

Objective:To explore the specific changes and correlations of sex hormones and lipid metabolism in overweight and obese boys aged 9-12 years.Methods:Seventy-two male subjects (9 to 12 years old) were divided into normal weight group ( n=42), overweight group ( n=15), and obese group ( n=15). Plasma sex hormone levels and lipid levels were detected by chemiluminescence immunoassay and ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC/QTOF/MS). All data were analyzed by multivariate statistics analysis. Results:(1) The serum concentration of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in obese group and overweight group was significantly lower than that in normal weight group, and the serum concentration of SHBG in obese group was significantly lower than that in overweight group ( P<0.05). The serum concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in overweight and obese group were significantly higher than those in normal weight group ( P<0.05). (2) There were 171 kinds of differential lipid compounds between normal weight group and overweight group, 218 species of differential lipid compounds between normal weight group and obese group, and 34 species of differential lipid compounds between overweight and obese group. Among them, 150 kinds of lipid compounds in normal weight group were significantly different from those in overweight and obese group. (3) SHGB was positively correlated with phosphatidyl cholines (PC) (20∶0/0∶0) and PC[18∶1(9E)/0∶0]( r=0.6, P<0.05), DHEA was positively correlated with diacylglycerol (DG)[17∶2(9Z, 12Z)/22∶0/0∶0]( r=0.5, P<0.05). Conclusions:9-12 years old overweight and obese boys had early growth and development, but sex hormone levels were not synchronized with growth and development. The serum DHEA level in overweight and obese boys was significantly increased, while the level of DG [17∶2 (9Z, 12Z)/22∶0/0∶0] was significantly increased, and the serum SHGB concentration was significantly decreased, while the vast majority of PC was significantly down-regulated. The mechanism of these changes needs to be further studied.

Objective To construct lentiviral expression vector of rat IP3R1 gene,and identify its silencing effect by using PC12 cell lines. Methods Oligo DNA sequences of 4 pairs of miRNA,named as miRNA1,miRNA2,miRNA3 and miRNA4,were designed according to IP3R1 gene sequence (GenBank:NM_001007235). The single strand of oligo DNA was annealed to form double strand DNA,and then connected with the empty plasmid pcDNA TM 6.2-GW/EmGFP-miR. By using gateway technology,the expression vector pcDNA TM 6.2-GW/EmGFP-miR-IP3R1 was linked into lentiviral destination vector pLenti6/V5-DEST to form the lentiviral expression vector pLenti6/V5-DEST-IP3R1,then it was transformed into infectious lentiviral particles and to infect PC12 cell lines. Silencing effect of gene IP3R1 was detected by Real-time PCR and Western blot. Results The sequence of expression vector pcDNA TM 6.2-GW/EmGFP-miR-IP3R1 was proved correct using sequencing method. After the transfection of letivirus vector pLenti6/V5-DEST-IP3R1 into PC12 cell lines,the IP3R1 mRNA and protein level were down-regulated 48h later,of which miRNA2 and miRNA3 sequence showed the best silencing effect,and the expression of IP3R1 in the blank control and negative control showed no significant changes. Conclusions Lentiviral expression vector pLenti6/V5-DEST-IP3R1 was constructed successfully. pLenti6/V5-DEST-IP3R1 may render the IP3R1 expression in PC12 cell lines down-regulated,and it provides a foundation for studying the function of calcium release channel IP3R1.

Objective To explore the changes and clinical significance of regulatory T cell/T help cell 17 (Th17) in the peripheral blood from patients with dermatomyositis (DM).Methods Thirty-six patients with DM were recruited and thirty-six healthy individuals were enrolled as normal controls.The percentage of regulatory T cell/Th17 cell was assessed by flow cytometry and the mRNA levels of Foxp3/RORγt were detected by real-time quantitative reverse wanscription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The plasma levels of TGF-β1/IL-17 were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).T-test was used for statistical analysis and Pearson's linear analysis were used for correlation analysis.Results The percentage of CD4+ Foxp3+ T cell,the mRNA expression of Foxp3 and the plasma levels of TGF-β1 decreased significantly in patients with DM than in normal controls [(7.2±2.3)％ vs (9.1±3.2)％,(0.44±0.19) vs (0.62±0.25),(37 400±4814) pg/ml vs (41 200±6348) pg/ml,P＜0.05].The percentage of Th17 cell,the mRNA expression of RORγt and the plasma levels of IL-17 increased in patients with DM compared with normal controls [(1.22±0.41)％ vs (0.83±0.14)％,(0.85±0.34) vs (0.61±0.21),(77±32) pg/ml vs (58±20) pg/ml,P＜0.05].There was negative correlation between the percentage of regulatory T cell,the mRNA levels of Foxp3,the plasma levels of TGF-β1 and the serum levels of CK in patients with DM (r=-0.573,-0.593,-0.618,P＜0.05).There was positive correhtion between the percentage of Thl7 cell,the mRNA levels of RORγt,the plasma levels of IL-17 and the serum levels of CK in patients with DM (r=0.582,0.609,0.623,P＜0.05).Conclusion The imbalance of regulatory T cell/Th17 cell may exist in the peripheral blood of patients with DM.Regulatory T cell/Th17 cell may be associated with the pathology of DM.
