International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2014;(20):2784-2785
Objective To investigate the relationship between homocysteine(Hcy)and blood uric acid(UA)in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)complicating hypertension.Methods 85 patients with T2DM complicating hypertension were se-lected as the groupⅠ,78 patients with simple T2DM as the group Ⅱ and 74 individuals with healthy physical examination as the group Ⅲ.Hcy,UA,TC,TG and HDL-C were measured in all the subjects.Results Compared with group Ⅲ(control),the levels of Hcy,UA,TC and TG in the group Ⅰand groupⅡwere significantly increased(P <0.05),but the level of HDL-C was significantly decreased(P <0.05).Compared with the group Ⅱ(T2DM),the levels of Hcy,UA,TC and TG in the group Ⅰwere significantly in-creased(P <0.05 ),but the level of HDL-C was obviously decreased,the difference had statistical significance (P <0.05 ).There was good positive correlation between the Hcy level and the UA level in the patients with T2DM complicating hypertension (r =0.658,P <0.05).Conclusion The levels of Hcy and UA are significantly increased in the patients with T2DM especially complica-ting hypertension.High Hcy and high UA are the important risk factors of T2DM complicating cardiocerebrovascular diseases.

Results of experiments such as ammonia steaming test in mice and citric acid test in guinea pigs, phenol red secretion test in mice and capillary expectorant test in rats, in-vivo and in-vitro antiasthmatic tests in guinea pigs proved that Tankeqing capsule had good antitussive, expectorant and antiasthmatic effects and a significant time-effect relationship was showed. The antitussive effect and expectorant effect arrived to the peak in 1-6h after oral administration, and the antiashmatic effect in about 1h.

Objective To investigate the effect of Shuyusan on the behavior of chronic stress induced depression model rats, as well as concentrations changes of norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) in cerebral cortex. Method Fifty mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:normal control group, model group, amitriptyline group, and high/low dose prescription group of Shuyusan. Except normal group, the other groups were given the chronic mild unpredicted stress for 21 days. After 21 days different stimulation, open-Field test was used to estimate the behavior of rats, the concentrations of NE, DA and 5-HT were detected with fluorescence spectrometer method. Results Horizontal and vertical motion of the model group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P

Objective To investigate the influences of 5-azacytidine (5-Aza) with different concentrations on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) proliferation and differentiation into myoblasts. Methods Bone marrow-derived MSCs of 4 weeks Wistar rats were separated and purified, and then treated with 5-Aza with different concentrations. The growth ability of cell was assayed with methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method. The expression of skeletal muscle actin in MSCs was determined with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and electrophoresis after MSCs were induced. Results The cell proliferation was not affected by 0 and 1 ?mol ? L-1 5-Aza . There were expressions of skeletal muscle actin treated with 3 -12 ?mol ? L-1 5-Aza. Some cells were obviously enlarged at the 9th day after induction and myotubu-like cells were found at the 12th day when treated with 9 and 12 ?mol ? L-1 5-Aza. 20 - 30 ?mol ? L-1 5-Aza induced the toxic effect on proliferation of MSCs. With the increase of concentration, the proliferation ability of MSCs was weakened. Conclusion 5-Aza affects the expression of regulatory gene to the stem cells and regulate MSCs to orientationally differentiate into myotube-like cells.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different concentrations of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 applied for different time periods on injury to human renal tubular epithelial cells.Methods Human renal kidney epithelial cells HK-2 at the logarithmic growth phase were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 1 × 105 cells/ml (0.1 ml/well),in culture flasks (5 ml/flask) or in cluture dishes (5 ml/dish).HK-2 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=49 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and 0.3%,1.5% and 3.0% HES 130/0.4 groups (H1,H2 and H3 groups).In H1,H2 and H3 groups,HK-2 cells were incubated with 0.3%,1.5% and 3.0% HES 130/0.4,respectively.The equal volume of PBS was added to the culture medium in group C.At day 1,3,5 and 7 of incubation,the cell viability was measured.At day 3,5 and 7 of incubation,cell apoptosis was detected,and apoptosis rate was calculated.On day 7 of incubation,the cells were stained with toluidine blue for examination of intracellular HES deposition (under light microscope) and pathological changes (with transmission electron microscope).Results Compared with group C,the cell viability was significantly decreased on day 5 and 7 of incubation,and apoptosis rate was increased on day 3,5 and 7 of incubation in group H3,and no significant difference was detected in the parameters mentioned above in H1 and H2 groups.Microscopic examination showed that intracellular HES deposition was observed in H2 and H3 groups,and pathological changes were obvious,and apoptotic cells were also found in H3 group.Conclusion Application of high-concentration HES 130/0.4 for a long period can lead to injury to human renal tubular epithelial cells,however,application of high-or low-concentration HES 130/0.4 for a short period produces no influence on the cells.

Objective To develop a balloon-type head fixation pillow for interventional neuroradiology operation.Methods Some radiotransparent sponge with high elasticity and strength and some nonopaque cloth with high skin compatibility were employed to make pillow base adaptable to the posterior fossa, neck and shoulder. A inflatable balloon made of anti-tensile airtight nylon was used to fix the underjaw.Results The fixation pillow gained advantages over the common one in imaging times, X-ray exposure dose and abnormal condition.Conclusion The head fixation pillow may decrease operating time, exposure dose and complications during interventional neuroradiology operation, and thus is worth popularizing clinically.

Objective To study the effect of hypoxial endothelia cell conditional medium(HECCM)on the proliferation of pulmonary arterial muscle cell(PASMC).Methods MTT assay was used to test the proliferation,immuno-cytochemistry was used to identify the expression of ?-SM-actin.Results(1)HECCM could promote the proliferation of PASMC,down-regulate their expression of ?-SM-actin.(2)DDPH could up-regulate the expression of ?-SM-actin in PASMC which was time-dependant.Conclusions DDPH could reverse the phenotype transformation of PASMC exposed to HECCM,the action was time-dependant.After some time DDPH could reversly transform PASMC to the normal contractile phenotype.
