ObjectiveTo study the liver and kidney function and muscle effects of rosuvastatin in rats.MethodsIn this study,twenty healthy male rats (9-month-old) were randomly divided into two groups:normal control group and rosuvastatin treatment group.The first treated group was given conventional feed; The second treated group was given conventional feed and oral rosuvastatin [5mg/( kg · d)] of 12 weeks.The level of liver and kidney function and creatine kinase,histological changes of liver and muscle were examined before and after the treatment.ResultsOur findings demonstrate that the level of liver and kidney function and creatine kinase was no significant difference among the two experimental groups,also no difference before and after treatment( P ＞0.05).At the same time,liver and muscle showed no abnormal pathology.Conclusion These findings collectively indicate that rosuvastatin shows no significant side effects in the liver and kidney function and muscle pathology compared with control group.

Objective To evaluate the effects of health management of stomatology on the marginal bone resorption of minimally invasive implant in the elderly.Method Tottally 54 implants were placed in 37 elderly patients of missing teeth in maxillary molar areas and the patients were randomly divided into health management group and control group.Patients in the group of health management were guided to master the proper techniques of oral hygiene practices before and after the implantation and periodontal maintenance were carried out carefully until 1 year after loading of restoration.In the control group, oral hygiene was applied. X-ray and CBCT examinations were made and implant marginal alveolar bone loss (MBL) was measured 3, 6, 9, 12 months after loading with Planmeca PROMAX3D software. Besides, 3, 6, 9, 12 months after loading, improved plaque index (iPLI), modified bleeding index (mBI) and probing depth (PD) were also recorded. SPSS 15.0 was applied to analyze the data. Result Differences in diastolic and systolic blood pressure and changes in heart rate in patients during the intraoperative period were (8.86 ± 0.31) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (19.18 ± 0.22) mmHg, (20.19 ± 1.84) times/min, which were significantly lower than those of the control group values [(16.55±1.08) mmHg, (28.31±2.30) mmHg, (20.19±1.84) times/min] (P<0.05 or 0.01);at 12 months after the load around the implant in oral health management group, the values of MBL and mSBI were 2.6 (2, 4), 2.1 (2, 4), which were significantly better than control group [4.3(3, 7), 4.3(3, 7)] (P<0.01);simultaneously, there was significant difference in the values of MBL and PD between experimental group (1.42 ± 0.03, 0.77 ± 0.24) and control group (1.59 ± 0.04, 0.54 ± 0.17) (P<0.01). Conclusion Well-performed health management of peri-implant could reduce the MBL and keep healthy soft tissue environment around implants.

Objective:To screen the differentially expressed miRNAs in umbilical cord tissue of children with nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or cleft palate( NSCL/P) using miRNA microarray and comprehensive bioinformatics analysis for the prediction of related the bio-logical process and signaling pathways. Methods:Umbilical cord tissues of 4 cases of healthy newborns' and 4 lip or palate tissues of 4 cases with NSCL/P without other disease aged younger than 2 years were collected. The differentially expressed miRNAs were screened by miRNA microarray. Targets of dysrugulated miRNAs were predicted by TARGETSCAN-VERT, MIRDB and RNA22-HSA. All the gene sets were analyzed by gene ontology and pathway enrichment. Results: MiRNA microarray demonstrated that 254 miRNAs were dysregulated(181 miRNAs were up-regulated and 73 downregulated,P <0. 05). The dysregulated miRNAs targets contained 5029 genes. The dysregulated miRNAs targets were enriched in anatomical structure development,cell adhesion,cell proliferation,cell motili-ty and other biological processes. The dysregulated miRNAs targets were enriched in Wnt, mTOR, cGMP-PKG, TGFβ, PI3K-Akt and other signaling pathways. Conclusion:The target genes set of miRNAs are enriched in multiple biological processes and signaling path-ways related to NSCL/P, which indicate that genetic and environmental factors may influence the development process of NSCL/P.

Objective:To investigate the changes of T lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in children with he-patitis B virus(HBV)-associated glomerulonephritis (HBV-GN), and their relationship with HBV-DNA load.Methods:Forty-one children who was the first diagnosed with HBV-GN in Department of Pediatrics, the People′s Hospital of Gansu Province and Institute of Infectious Diseases, the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from September 2012 to September 2016 were collected as the objects(HBV-GN group). At the same time, the 40 patients with HBV infection (chronic HBV infection, normal liver and kidney function, normal 24-hour proteinuria quantitation, no hematuria under the microscope, no recent symptoms of cold and fever, etc.) were enrolled as the control group.The levels of T lymphocyte subset, tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 in the HBV-GN group and the control group were compared, and the relationship between HBV-DNA and cell factors was farther analyzed.Results:Compared with the control group, the proportions of CD3 + T, CD4 + T lymphocyte and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio decreased in the HBV-GN group(0.632±0.052 vs.0.692±0.047, 0.204±0.050 vs.0.466±0.038, 0.006±0.002 vs.0.017±0.003, t=1.025, 3.342, 5.234, all P<0.05), and the proportions of CD8 + T lymphocyte was significantly higher than that in the control group (0.411±0.023 vs.0.220±0.043, t=4.452, P<0.01). Besides, IL-2 and IFN-γ levels in the HBV-GN group were significantly lower than those in the control group[(23.36±2.55) ng/L vs.(36.33±1.24) ng/L, (19.20±2.18) ng/L vs.(61.25±2.08) ng/L, all P<0.05], and the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 were significantly higher than those in the control group[(19.60±1.46) ng/L vs.( 6.68±2.32) ng/L, (13.65±3.34) ng/L vs.(1.35±1.52) ng/L, (5.57±1.02) ng/L vs.(1.43±0.57) ng/L, (26.32±3.45) ng/L vs.(9.68±2.55) ng/L, (19.82±2.78) ng/L vs.(1.02±0.56) ng/L, all P<0.01]. Moreover, in HBV-GN patients, there was negative correlation between HBV-DNA load and IFN-γ, IL-2( r=-0.985, -0.943, all P<0.05), and positive relationship in HBV-DNA load with TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8 and IL -10 levels( r=0.942, 0.966, 0.953, 0.944, 0.963, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is an CD4 + /CD8 + imbalance and an abnormal level of cell factors in HBV-GN progression.In further HBV-GN treatment, HBV-DNA and the cell factors should be detected simultaneously to dynamically eva-luate the illness change and the clinical curative effect.

Objective: To explore the effects of change of activity of vacuolar adenosine triphosphatase (V-ATPase) of myocardial lysosome on myocardial damage in rats after severe burn and its mechanism. Methods: The myocardial lysosomes were extracted from the hearts of 12 SD rats with ultra-high speed gradient density centrifugation, then Western blotting and transmission electron microscope observation were conducted for identification. One hundred and twenty rats were divided into pure burn group, ATP group, normal control group, and bafilomycin group according to the random number table, with 30 rats in each group. Rats in pure burn group and ATP group were inflicted with 40% TBSA full-thickness scald on the back. Immediately after injury, rats in pure burn group were intraperitoneally injected with lactated Ringer′s solution in 4 mL·%TBSA^-1·kg^-1, and rats in ATP group were intraperitoneally injected with ATP in 0.4 mg/kg at 12 h before burn, immediately after burn, and 12 h after burn. Rats in normal control group did not receive any treatment, and rats in bafilomycin group were intraperitoneally injected with bafilomycin A1 in 0.3 mg/kg at the same time points as those of ATP group. At 24 h after burn, 30 rats from each group were collected for determining activity of V-ATPase of myocardial lysosome with coupled-enzyme assay and the expression of myocardium autophagy-related proteins microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) and P62 by Western blotting. Left ventricular arterial blood was collected to detect the content of 5 items of myocardial enzyme spectrum and cardiac troponin T (cTnT). Data were processed with one-way analysis of variance and t test. Results: (1) After identification, both the expression level of lysosome-related membrane protein 1 and purity of lysosome in the sample were high, and the structure of lysosome was intact. (2) At 24 h after burn, the activity values of V-ATPase of myocardial lysosome in rats of pure burn group, ATP group, normal control group, and bafilomycin group were (2.03±0.67), (3.01±0.58), (4.29±0.26), and (1.83±0.52) μmol·mg^-1·h^-1, respectively. The activity value of V-ATPase of myocardial lysosome in rats of pure burn group was significantly lower than the values in ATP group and normal control group (with t values respectively 3.14 and 8.87, P values below 0.01). The activity values of V-ATPase of rats in normal control group were significantly higher than those in bafilomycin group (t=11.87, P<0.01). At 24 h after burn, the expressions of myocardial LC3 and P62 in pure burn group were significantly higher than those in ATP group and normal control group (with t values from 3.73 to 5.88, P values below 0.01). The expressions of myocardial LC3 and P62 in normal control group were significantly lower than those in bafilomycin group (with t values respectively 2.64 and 3.07, P<0.05 or P<0.01). At 24 h after burn, the content of 5 items of myocardial enzyme spectrum and cTnT in pure burn group was significantly higher than that in ATP group and normal control group (with t values from 3.24 to 16.72, P values below 0.01). The content of 5 items of myocardial enzyme spectrum and cTnT in normal control group was significantly lower than that in bafilomycin group (with t values from 2.39 to 10. 70, P values below 0.01). Conclusions The activity of V-ATPase of myocardial lysosome decreased in rats after severe burn, which can result in myocardial damage by inhibiting myocardial autophagy flux.

Objective: To evaluate the application of combinatorial probe anchor synthesis (cPAS)-based high-throughput low coverage whole genome sequencing in chromosomal aberration detection in spontaneous miscarriage. Methods: From September 2015 to May 2017, spontaneous miscarriage samples were collected from Inner Mongolia Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital. Those samples were further analyzed with two independent methods, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and low coverage whole genome sequencing on the BGISEQ-500 high-throughput platform. The performance of low coverage whole genome sequencing was assessed by comparing to FISH results. Results: In 595 spontaneous miscarried specimens, low coverage whole genome sequencing revealed 144 cases (24.2%, 144/595) chromosomal abnormalities, of which a subset of 137 cases (23.0%, 137/595) were detected as aneuploidies, 2 cases (0.3%, 2/595) as mosaicisms and 5 cases (0.8%, 5/595) as copy number variation (≥5 Mb). Conclusion cPAS-based high-throughput low coverage whole genome sequencing is a reliable method in detecting chromosomal aberrations inspontaneous abortion tissues, including chromosome aneuploidies, mosaicisms and copy number variation (≥5 Mb).

Objective To investigate the endogenous carnosine,glutathione system and oxidative stress level in serum of patients with diabetic cardiomyopathy(DCM),and the potential relationships among them.Meth-ods The serum of 102 healthy people,96 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 74 patients with diabetic car-diomyopathy in the third affiliated hospital of QiQihar Medical University were enrolled.Carnosine content was mea-sured by ELISA.T-GSH,GSH and GSSG were detected by using micro-enzyme labeling assay.GSH-Px,GST and GRAC were detected by using colorimetry. The content of NO was detected by nitrate reduction method. The con-tent of H2O2was detected by using molybdic acid coloring method. The activities of NOS and CAT was determined by colorimetry. Results Compared with the healthy control group,the average level of human serum carnosine, GSH content,GRAC,GSH/GSSG ratio,GST activity and T-SH content in the DM and DCM group were signifi-cantly reduced(P < 0.05,respectively). NO content,H2O2and iNOS activity were increased,but CAT activity was decreased in DCM group.Conclusion Decreases of levels of serum carnosine and glutathione(GSH)and the imbalance of redox state were observed in patients with diabetic cardiomyopathy,which may promote the occur-rence and development of the diabetic cardiomyopathy.
