Aim This study was designed to investigate the effects of pravastatin,a potent 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor,on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) proliferation and leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC).Methods Cultured VSMCs from rabbit thoracic aorta were incubated with various concentrations of LPC in the absence or presence of different concentrations of pravastatin. MTT was used to evaluate the proliferation of VSMCs. We determined the effects of LPC and pravastatin on neutrophil K562 adhesion to endothelial cells ECV304 by directly counting non-adhesive K562 cells.Results Incubation of VSMCs with LPC (1～10 ?mol?L -1) stimulated proliferation of VSMCs in a time- and dose-dependent manner,while pravastatin (0.3～1 mmol?L -1) treatment prevented the proliferation of VSMCs caused by LPC. Moreover, incubation of ECV304 with 3 ?mol ? L -1 LPC for 12 h significantly enhanced K562 cells adhesion to endothelial cells, whereas pretreatment with pravastatin reduced leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Conclusion These results suggest that pravastatin can antagonize the effects of VSMCs proliferation and leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion induced by LPC.

Objective To explore the changes and clinical significance of plasma tissue factor pathway (TFP) levels during the onset of acute ischemic cardiac and cerebral vessel disease. Methods The study population consisted of 69 patients with AMI and 71 with AICS as well as 50 age-matched healthy volunteers. Blood samples were obtained during the onset period of AMI and AICS. Tissue factor (TF) and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) activity in plasma were assayed with the chromogenic assay, Plasma TF and TFPI antigen were measured with ELISA, Plasma FⅦ coagulation activity (FⅦ:C) was developed in the one- stage system. Plasma FⅦa was determined by soluble TF assay, plasma prothrombin (FII) and fibrinogen (Fbg) were measured by one-stage amidolytic assay and thrombin time (TT) respectively. Results In the AMI group, compared with the control group, plasma TF activities and antigens, TFPI activities and antigens as well as FⅦa were significantly higher(all P0.05), plasma FII and Fbg were also remarkably increased (both P0.05). Conclusion The initiation of TF pathway would be associated with the onset of AMI and AIS, but the changes of TF, TFPI, FⅦ:C and Fbg in AMI are different from those in AICS, endothelial dysfunction and the blood is in hypercoagulable state.

Purpose:To study the significance of resecting the lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve in the operation on cNo thyroid papillary carcinoma,and its value inselecting the fashion of operation .Methods:Reviewing the clinical-pathological material of 186 cases of cNo thyroid papillarycary cinoma,and analyzing the relationship between lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and lateral cervical nodes metastasis. Results:Of 186 cases of cNo thyroid papillary cacinoma,there were 42.5% (79/186) with metastatic lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve,63.2% of which had lateral cervical nodes or distant metastasis,while only 8 cases had metastasis in the negative group. Conclusions:The thyroid papillary carcinoma with metastatic nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve means there is a higher chance of metastasis in regions of the neck. Resecting the lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and frozed pathological examination can be a basis to determine whether redical neck dissection should be performed.

Objective To investigate the expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) mRNA in gastric cancer tissues and cancer-adjacent tissues and the relationship between its expression and biologic behavior of tumor. Methods Fourty-eight cases with gastric cancer were detected for the expression of uPA mRNA by fluorogenic probe quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results The positive expression rate of uPA mRNA was 83.3%, 25.0%, 93.8% and 62.5% in gastric cancer tissues,cancer-adjacent tissues, gastric cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis and with non-lymph node metastasis respectively. Expression of uPA mRNA was positively related with the invasion depth of gastric cancer.Conclusion Expression of uPA mRNA is significantly increased in gastric cancer and it can be used as an indicator to judge the metastasis and prognosis of tumor.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) mRNA and breast cancer, lymph node metastasis. Methods Sixty patients with breast tumor were selected randomly and the expression of uPA mRNA was detected with RT-PCR. The patients were divided into benign group (18 cases) and malignant group (42 cases) which included 22 cases with lymph node metastasis and 20 cases without lymph node metastasis. The relationship between uPA mRNA expression and breast cancer, lymph node metastasis was analyzed. Results Among these 18 benign tumors, low expression of uPA mRNA was found in 2 cases and the others were negative. While in 42 cases of malignant tumor, uPA mRNA were positive in 22 cases of lymph node metastasis, 16 of which were high expression, 5 of which were moderate expression, and 1 was low expression. uPA mRNA were positive in 18 of 20 cases of nonmetastatic lymph node, 1 of which was high expression, 5 of which were moderate expression and 12 of which were low expression, the other 2 were negative expression. The expression of uPA mRNA had significant difference between benign and malignant tumors ( P

In the trends of large-scale brain research projects around the world, the China Brain Project aims to promote the understanding of the basic principles of the brain, and use the basic research of neuroscience to serve some urgent social and economic needs at the same time.As we approach the launch of this effort aimed at revolutionizing our understanding of cognitive principles of the brain, early diagnoses of brain diseases and brain-like intelligence technologies, it is timely to review the new progress in recent international brain research projects, and the deployment and future trajectory of neuroscience research in China.
