Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2010;17(17):2354-2356
Objective This study was conducted to investigate the clinical outcomes and safety of primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) combined with tirofiban therapy in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI). Methods Seventy-one consecutive patients with acute STEMI were divided by random number table to primary PCI combined with tirofiban therapy group(Tirofiban group,25 cases) and primary PCI treatment alone group(Control group,46 cases). Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and major adverse cardiac events rates(MACE) during hospitalization period and at 30 days discharge and 180 days after discharge were compared between the two groups. Results TIMI grade flow was significantly different between the tirofiban group and control group after surgery. The LVEF and MACE were significantly different between two groups during hospitalization period and at 30 days after discharge. The MACE at 180 days followup was relatively reduced and LVEF was relatively improved in tirofiban group, but there was not significantly different. Conclusion Adjunctive therapy with tirofiban for patients with acute STEMI who underwent primary PCI was safe and effective.

AIM:To study the protection and mechanism of Asclepiadaceae against the damage of neuron by free radical. METHODS:The model of ischemia and damaged neuron induced by H 2O 2 was made respectively. The protection of Asclepiadaceae was observed with the measurement of contents of MDA in brain and cultured neuron, transudatory rate of LDH, breaking rate of DNA and clearance rate of?OH in cultured neuron. RESULTS:Asclepiadaceae decreased the raising of MDA in brain induced by ischemia. The raising of transudatory rate of LDH,breaking rate of DNA and content of MDA inducing by H 2O 2 in cultured neuron were also observed. The clearance rate of?OH in cultured neuron increased as the contents of Asclepiadaceae raised. CONCLUSION: The mechanism of Asclepiadaceae protecting the neuron is related to its ability to clean up free radical.

Objective: To explore the relationship among levels of N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] and in-stent restenosis (ISR) in patients after stent implantation. Methods: A total of 625 pa-tients, who received drug-eluting stent implantation in our department and underwent coronary angiography one year after surgery, were continuously collected. According to presence of ISR or not, patients were divided into no restenosis group (n=532) and ISR group (n=93). Plasma levels of NT-proBNP and Lp (a) were measured and compared between two groups. Single-factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship among levels of NTproBNP, Lp (a) and coronary ISR. Results: Compared with no restenosis group, there were significant rise in plasma levels of NT-proBNP [(749. 43±154. 82) ng/L vs. (856. 12±132. 45) ng/L]and Lp (a) [(299. 23±29. 07) mg/L vs. (321. 12±31. 05) mg/L]in ISR group, P=0. 001 both; multi-factor Logistic analysis indicated that plasma levels of NTproBNP (OR=2. 162, 95%CI 2. 002~2. 333) and Lp (a) (OR=2. 903, 95%CI 2. 648~3. 184) were independent risk factors for ISR, P<0. 05 both. Conclusion: N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide and lipoprotein (a) are independent risk factors for in-stent restenosis in patients undergoing stent implantation.

Wheat grain peroxidase 1 (WP1) belonged to class III plant peroxidase with cofactor heme, which not only has antifungal activity, but also influences the processing quality of flour. In order to enhance functional expression of WP1 in prokaryotic system by increasing endogenous heme synthesis, we constructed a recombinant plasmid pACYC-A-L containing hemA and hemL of Esherichia coli. Then, we co-transformed it into host strain T7 Express with secretive expression vector (pMAL-p4x-WP1) or non-secretive expression vector (pET21a-MBP-WP1), respectively. The MBP-WP1 fusion protein was further purified by amylose affinity chromatography and its peroxidase activity was assayed using 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) as substrate. At 12 h after induction at 28 degree, the extracellular 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) production of T7 Express/pACYC-A-L was up to 146.73 mg/L, simultaneously the extracellular porphrins also increased dramatically. The peroxidase activity of functional MBP-WP1 obtained from T7 Express/ (pACYC-A-L + pMAL-p4x-WP1) was 14.6-folds of that purified from T7 Express/ pET21a-MBP-WP1. This study not only successfully enhanced functional expression of wheat peroxidase 1 in Esherichia coli, but also provided beneficial references for other important proteins with cofactor heme.
