Objective To evaluate the effect of intrathecal ropivacaine on spinal histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and HDAC2 expression in the rats with neuropathic pain (NP).Methods Thirty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 220-250 g, in which intrathecal catheters were successfully placed, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (group S), group NP, and NP + ropivacaine group (group R).NP was induced by chronic constriction injury (CCI) in anesthetized rats.Sciatic nerve was exposed and 4 loose ligatures were placed on the left sciatic nerve at 1 mm intervals with 4-0 chromic catgut.Starting from 7th day after CCI, 0.25% ropivacaine 20 μl was injected intrathecally in group R, while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of ropivacaine in S and CCI groups once a day for 7 consecutive days.At 1 day before CCI (T0) ,and 3, 7, 10, 14, 17 and 21 days after CCI (T1-6) , the mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured.After the pain threshold was measured at T4,3 rats from each group were sacrificed, and their lumbar enlargements were harvested for determination of the expression of HDAC1 and HDAC2 by Western blot.Results Compared with group S, the MWT was significantly decreased, and the TWL was shortened at T2-6, and the expression of HDAC 1 and HDAC2 was up-regulated at T4 in NP and R groups (P<0.05).Compared with group NP, the MWT was significantly increased at T4, and the TWL was prolonged at T3.4, and the expression of HDAC1 and HDAC2 was downregulated at T4 in group R (P<0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which intrathecal ropivacaine alleviates NP may be related to inhibited up-regulation of spinal HDACI and HDAC2 expression in rats.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of trichloroethylene (TCE) on cardiac developmental differentiation in human embryonic stem cells.
METHODSIn this study, based on the human embryonic stem cells in vitro cardiac differentiation assay, we investigated the potential effect of TCE exposure on the cardiac toxicity in embryo development. Human embryonic stem cells were treated with TCE at different concentrations of 100 ppb, 1 ppm, and 10 ppm and dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) treated as control. The MTT assay was performed to examine the cytoplasmic toxicity of TCE exposure. The beating percentages were recorded and the expression of cardiac specific gene was evaluated by PCR or flow cytometry. Also, real time PCR was performed to verify the micro array analysis on the expression level changes of genes which were involved in the Ca2+ signal pathways.
RESULTSCompared with the control group, there was no significant difference in cell viability when cells were treated with TCE at the concentrations of 100 ppb, 1 ppm, and 10 ppm. However, TCE could inhibit the expression of cTnT protein in a concentration-dependant manner. And the most interestingly, TCE significantly inhibited the cardiac differentiation characterized by the decrease beating percentages. Genes involved in Ca2+ signaling pathway were severely disrupted by TCE.
CONCLUSIONTCE inhibited the cardiac specific differentiation of human embryonic stem cell and at the meanwhile the genes responsible for Ca2+ signaling pathway were severely disrupted, which could contribute the severe effects of TCE cardiotoxicity.

Objective:To explore the relationship between loneliness and attachment in college students and the mediating effect of rumination.Methods:Totally 545 students [239 males,306 females;average age (20 ± 3) years] were assessed with the Russell UCLA Loneliness Scale (UCLA),Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory (ECR,including attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety) and Nolen-Hoeksema Ruminative Response Scale (RRS).The structural equation model was used to research the mediating effect of rumination on relationship between loneliness and attachment.Results:The scores of UCLA,ECR and RRS were positively correlated each other (r =0.30,0.20,0.44,Ps < 0.01) in college students.The inspection of the mediating effect found fit indices for hypothetical model were acceptable (x2 =16.69,df=5,NFI =0.98,IFI =0.99,TLI =0.96,CFI =0.99,AGFI =0.96,RMSEA =0.07).Path analysis revealed that attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety predicted directly loneliness (β =0.10,0.06) and rumination (β =0.05,0.16),and predicted loneliness by rumination (β =0.18).Conclusion:The rumination may be associated with loneliness and individual attachment and play a partial mediating effect between loneliness and attachment in college students.

Objective The aim of the study is to approach the clinical significance of the change of ST segments after di- rect percutaneous transcoronary angioplasty(PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI).Methods The change of the ST segments on EKG of 76 patients with AMI are observed in 30 minutes after un- derwent direct PICA combined with Lipo-PGE_1,and the relations are analyzed that are prospectively to their therapy effect,the degree of injured cardiac muscle,the cardial functions,and the prognosis.Results The patients who treated with the PCTA combined with Lipo-PGE_1 ST segments on EKG 30 minutes after operations reduced significantly,cardiac muscle is injured lowly,their cardial functions are better.Conclusion The change of ST segments after direct percutane- ous transcoronary angioplasty (PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating acute myocardial infarction is one of the guide line to estimate the perfnsion of cardiac muscle,and to estimate prognosis farther.

Malignant mesothelioma(MM) is a rare but highly invasive carcinoma associated with asbestos exposure.Its incidence is in rising trend and most cases occur in pleura and peritoneum.The majority of patients diagnosed at late stage with poor prognosis that the median overall survival is only 12 months.Accurate diagnosis depends on the histopathology combined with immunohistochemistry.At present, the treatment of MM is mainly based on the tumor reduction or resection surgery combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.The potential molecular target needs to be further investigated.In this paper, we summary the incidence, diagnosis and treatment of MM, which will benefit the diagnosis and treatment of MM in China.

Objective To investigate the serum concentration of interleukin (IL)-17 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis and the clinical implication. Methods Serum IL-17 level of 51 active RA patients were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbentassay (ELISA). The relationship between serum levels of IL-17 in active RA patients and clinic features were analyzed. Two independent samples t test, ANOVA for repeated, one-way ANOVA and Spearman's Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results ① Serum IL-17 levels were elevated in active RA patients (365±63) pg/ml than in normal controls (86±13) pg/ml (P<0.01); ② Serum IL-17 levels in active RA was correlated with morning stiffiness duration, swelling index, Ritchie index, CRP, ESR, RF, X-ray score, DAS score (r =0.423, 0.213, 0.252, 0.276, 0.346, 0.251, 0.412, 0.398; P<0.05). ③ The levels of IL-17 between phase I (296±79) pg/ml and Phase II (360±89) pg/ml, phase II and phase HI (464±74) pg/ml, Phase I and Phase Ⅳ (369±83) pg/ml in RA group were statistically significantly different (P<0.05). Conclusion The levels of serum IL-17 in active RA patients are higher than the normal controls. The elevated serum IL-17 levels may be the useful markers for active RA.In addition,interleukin-17 is involved in disease progression and bony erosion of RA, and it maybe a new treatmenttarget of RA.
