Proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is often accompanied by changes in intracellular actin distribution. The changes are controlled by the signal transduction pathways of protein kinase C/mitogenic activated protein kinase (PKC-MAPK), but the mechanism is unclear. In order to study the effect of insulin on the intracellular signal transduction (PKC-MAPK) probably involved in the modulation of proliferation and redistribution of actins in the VSMCs, the DNA synthesis, MAPK activities and its gene expression, and the redistribution of intracellular actins were investigated in the isolated VSMCs of SHR pretreated with PKC inhibitor and/or insulin, respectively. We found that insulin treatment resulted in proliferation of the VSMCs and an increase in [(3)H] TdR incorporation. Meanwhile, the activities and expression of MAPK increased significantly compared to the control group. These effects of insulin were blocked by PKC inhibitor. In addition, insulin caused a redistribution of the intracellular actins in VSMCs, which was also inhibited by PKC inhibitor. It is, therefore, suggested that these effects of insulin on VSMCs proliferation and distribution of the intracellular actins may be mediated by the MAPK signal transduction pathway.

OBJECTIVETo study the effects of negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on the treatment of complicated and refractory wounds.
METHODSSixty-seven patients with complicated or refractory wounds admitted to our hospital from September 2005 to November 2008 were randomly divided into NPWT group (n = 35) and conventional treatment (CT) group (n = 32). Wounds of patients in NPWT group were treated with interrupted suction under a pressure of -16.63 kPa for 24 hs, or continuous suction under a pressure of -10.64 kPa for 24 hs. Wounds of patients in CT group were covered with petrolatum gauze overlaid with isotonic saline gauze and dry gauze. Duration of treatment, times of operation, treatment cost, and the process of healing were compared between two groups.
RESULTSThe duration of treatment, treatment cost and times of operation of patients in NPWT group were obviously less or fewer than those of CT group (P < 0.05). Wounds of patients in NPWT group were mainly healed by themselves (40.0%) or healed after free skin grafting (40.0%). While wounds in patients in CT group healed mainly after tissue flap transplantation (66.7%) or free skin grafting (23.3%).
CONCLUSIONSCompared with CT, NPWT can shorten the length of hospital stay, reduce operation frequency and treatment cost, and it is easier to carry out in the surgery of treating complicated and refractory wounds, which is worth generalization.

BACKGROUNDGenetic factors contribute to the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). Recently, a missense mutation in the low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 6 (LRP6) gene, encoding low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 6, has been implicated in an autosomal dominant form of early-onset CAD. The aim of this study was to determine whether the common variants in LRP6 are associated with sporadic CAD in Chinese.
METHODSA total of 766 CAD patients and 806 healthy controls were included in this study. The presence of angiographic CAD was determined by coronary angiographic analysis. Six signal nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique.
RESULTSA significant association was detected between rs11054731 in LRP6 intron 2 and CAD in our cohort (P = 0.001). The CC genotype and C allele frequency in the case group were 52% and 72%. Using a dominant model of inheritance, the C allele of rs11054731 was shown to be an independent risk factor for CAD with an OR of 1.45 (95%CI: 1.19 - 1.77, P = 0.0002). With the stratification according to the number of affected coronary arteries, an association was observed between rs11054731 and CAD (P = 0.0002). No significant association was observed between any other SNPs and the risk of CAD.
CONCLUSIONThe C allele of the rs11054731 within the LRP6 gene was associated with increased risk and extent of CAD in Chinese.

OBJECTIVETo study the association of the OX40 gene rs2298212G/A polymorphism with coronary atherosclerotic disease (CAD) in Chinese Han population.
METHODSFive hundred and thirty six CAD patients and 544 age and ethnic matched controls of Chinese Han population were recruited from Qilu Hospital, Shandong University. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to genotype the selected single nucleotide polymorphism. Distributions of genotypic and allelic frequencies were analyzed by Chi-square test.
RESULTSThe distribution of genotypic and allelic frequencies have no significant differences between the CAD cases and controls(P> 0.05), even after adjusting for age, gender, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride. However, when substratification analysis of the involved coronary artery vessels was performed, significant difference was found between single-vessel and triple-vessel (P= 0.02, OR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.08-2.26) involvement.
CONCLUSIONThe rs2298212G/A polymorphism in OX40 gene may be associated with the severity of coronary atherosclerotic disease.
