Objective To explore the effect of antidepressant adjuvant treatment for chronic prostatitis (CP),and to find an effective treatment for the clinical therapy of CP.Methods 88 patients with CP were randomly divided into two groups,the control group 41 patients were treated with the antibacterials moxifloxacin,the treatment group 47 patients were treated with the moxiiloxacin treatment and paroxetine adjuvant therapy.The clinical symptoms,life quality (QOL) and Zung depression scale score of the two groups were evaluated and compared.Results After four weeks of treatment,voiding difficulty endless,urinary urgency,perineal discomfort symptoms of the treatment group were improved significantly compared with the control group (x2 =23.563,18.348,15.874,all P ＜ 0.05).After four weeks of treatment,QOL,Zung depression scale scores the treatment group were more significant decline than before treatment and the control group after treatment (t =0.554,0.615,0.382,0.336,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Antidepressant adjuvant therapy improves the psychiatric symptoms of CP patients,which can effectively improve the clinical efficacy of antibiotic therapy of CP.

To explore the serum hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) lesion severity level and diabetic nephropathy (DN).A total of 207 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were recruited from Second Municipal Hospital.According to the level of urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), they were divided into non-DN group (group A, n =56) : UAER ＜ 20 μg/min;early DN (group B, n =55) : UAER: 20-200 μg/min;clinical stage DN with normal renal function (group C, n =52):UAER ＞ 200 μg/min;DN in clinical renal dysfunction (group D, n =44) : UAER ＞ 200 μmol/min, decompensated chronic renal failure (serum creatinine: 133-177 μmol/L).And 55 healthy subjects were selected as controls.The serum levels of HGF, fasting plasma glucose , plasma glucose at 2 hour , blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and glycosylated hemoglobin were determined.HGF value : control group : (256.4 ± 30.4) ng/L,group A: (400.1 ±39.3)ng/L, group B: (689.4 ±55.6) ng/L, group C:(967.3 ±68.5) ng/L and group D: (150.7 ±23.2) ng/L.There are differences of serum HGF in different degree of DN.

Objective To explore the reversion of astragaloside and NMDA receptor antagonist against the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau induced by fetal intrauterine distress in neonatal rats.Methods The analysis of variance of factorial design was setted up two intervention factors which were fetal intrauterine distress (two levels:no disposition;a course of fetal intrauterine distress)and the drugs (three levels:iv Saline;iv astragaloside;iv MK -801).When the neonatal rats grew to 12weeks,the hippocampus was removed from the neonatal rats.Detected the content of glutamate in the hippocampus of rats by high performance liquid chromatography.The expression of protein Tau which includes p -AT8Ser202 and GSK -3β1H8 in the hippocampus of rats were detected by the methods of immunohistochemistry staining.Results Fetal intrauterine distress could significantly up -regulate the content of glutamate,which was not affected by MK -801,in the hippocampus of neonatal rats which was reduces by the astragaloside (P <0.05).And both influences presented subtracting effects (P <0.05).Fetal intrauterine distress and the drugs do not affect the total protein Tau in the hippocampus of rats (P <0.05).Fetal intrauterine distress could up -regulate the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau in the hippocampus of neonatal rats which could be reduced by astragaloside and MK -801 (P <0.05).And the influences between fetal intrauterine distress and the drugs presented subtracting effects (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Our results indicate that fetal intrauterine distress reduce the hyperphosphorylation of protein Tau in neonatal rats though up -regulating the content of glutamate.GSK-3βis the key protein in this signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of Nogo receptor on the apoptosis of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) in di-abetic rats, and the potential mechanism thereof. Methods Thirty diabetic model rats were induced by intraperitoneal ad-ministration of streptozotocin. Model rats were randomly divided into control group, diabetes mellitus (DM) group, siNgR group and siRNA control group (n=10 for each group). Diabetic rats in siNgR group were intravitreally administrated with No-go receptor antisense nucleotide. Diabetic rats in siRNA control group were intravitreally administrated with negative nucleo-tide. One month after diabetes onset, colocalization of Nogo receptor and Brn3a (marker of RGC) was observed by immunohis-tochemistry. The apoptosis of RGC was detected by TUNEL staining. The level of retinal malondialdehyde (MDA) was ob-served with kit, and the expressions of Nogo receptor and caspase-3 were detected with Western blot assay. Results It was found that the Nogo receptor was highly expressed in RGC. The levels of retinal MDA were (3.68±0.47), (8.07±1.24), (7.54± 1.53) and (5.12 ± 0.62) μmol/g protein for control group, DM group, siRNA control group and siNgR group. The apoptotic rates of RGC were (5.1 ± 0.2)%, (49.3 ± 2.7)%, (45.6 ± 1.8)%and (12.4 ± 0.6)%respectively. The expressions of Nogo receptor were (0.18 ± 0.07)%, (0.45 ± 0.12)%, (0.40 ± 0.09)%and (0.16 ± 0.09)%. The expressions of caspase-3 were (0.16 ± 0.05)%, (0.40±0.18)%, (0.42±0.12)%and (0.17±0.08)%. Compared with control group, there was significant increase in apoptosis of RGC, significantly up-regulated expressions in Nogo receptor and caspase-3, and significantly increased level of MDA in DM group and siRNA control group(P<0.05). Compared with DM group, there were decreased apoptotic rate of RGC, de-creased expressions of Nogo receptor and caspase-3, and decreased level of retinal MDA in siNgR group (P<0.05). Conclu-sion The increased level of Nogo receptor induces oxidative stress and up-regulation of caspase-3 in diabetic retina, play-ing an important role in the apoptosis of RGC.

Objective To explore protective effects and potential underlying mechanisms of panax notoginseng (PTS) on retinal ganglion cell (RGC) in diabetic rats. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into control group, diabetic group and treatment group. The diabetic model rats were induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Rats were giv-en PTS 50 mg·kg-1·d-1 in treatment group. One month later, the coexistence of nogo receptor and Brn3a (special marker of RGC) was observed by immunofluorescence staining double-labeled method. The expression of Nogo receptor was detected by Western blot assay. The level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in retina was measured with detection kit. HE-staining was in-troduced to reveal the number of retinal RGC. Results A large number of Brn3a and Nogo receptors were co-existed in the retina. The Nogo receptor was exclusively expressed in RGC, which was up regulated in diabetic group compared with that of control group. The level of retinal MDA was increased and the number of RGC decreased in diabetic group than that of con-trol group (P＜0.001). Compared with diabetic group, there were decreased retina Nogo receptor, decreased level of MDA and increased number of RGC in treatment group (P＜0.001). Conclusion PTS attenuates diabetes-induced loss of RGC, which may ascribe for down-regulation of retina Nogo receptor and decreased oxidative stress.

Objective To observe the effects ofTanyu Tongzhi Formula on proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs);To explore its activity of pro-angiogenesis.Methods HUVECs were cultured in vitro. Rats were treated with gavage containing different doses ofTanyu Tongzhi Formula (78.0, 39.0, 19.5 g/kg) to prepare serum with different doses of medicine. The activity of HUVECs was measured by MTT method. The effects on migration of HUVECs were inspected by using scratch wound assay.Results Compared with the normal control group, serum containing high-dose and medium-doseTanyu Tongzhi Formula could significantly promote the proliferation of the HUVECs (P<0.01). The rates were 49.78% and 33.92% respectively. And the cell migration rate was higher in the two groups than in the normal control group (P<0.01). The rates were 11.36% and 11.62% respectively.ConclusionTanyu Tongzhi Formula can promote proliferation and migration in HUVEC, which may be active to pro-angiogenesis.

Mitochondria play important roles in cellular energy metabolism,free radical generation and apoptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the most profound features of cancer cells. Several distinct differences between the mitochondria of normal cells and cancer cells have been observed at the molecular,biochemical,metabolic and genetic levels. In this article,we review the relationship between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and carcinogenesis of cancer cells. The possible mechanisms are also discussed.
