AIM:To observe the influence of high expression of miR-15a-5p on the proliferation and migration of human hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721 cells.METHODS: The miR-15a-5p oligonucleotide , which was recon-structed with additional restriction sites of EcoRⅠand HindⅢ, was chemically synthesized and confirmed by sequencing . The miR-15a-5p eukaryotic expression system was constructed by pcDNA 6.2-GW/Em-GFP-pre-miR-15a-5p plasmid.The miR-15a-5p was transfected into the SMMC-7721 cells transiently by plasmid , and quantified by quantitative real-time PCR at the mRNA level.The cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay, and the living cell counting was performed by the method of Trypan blue exclusion .The migration ability of the SMMC-7721 cells with high expression of miR-15a-5p was de-tected by wound healing test .RESULTS: The sequence of miR-15a-5p oligonucleotide 100% matched the designed se-quence.Compared with control group , the miR-15a-5p expression was increased significantly (P<0.05).The viability, the living cell number and the migration ability of the SMMC-7721 cells were decreased in high expression of miR-15a-5p group with statistically significant difference (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The abilities of proliferation and migration in human hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721 cells are decreased by high expression of miR-15a-5p.

Objective To explore the effect of NF-?B activation induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) in rat Kupffer cells(KCs). Methods KCs were divided randomly into three groups. A group was control group. KCs were co-cultured with LPS in B group. KCs were co-cultured with LPS and PDTC in C group. NF-?B activity of KCs was determined with EMSA. Content of I-?B protein in KCs was detected with western blot. Expression levels of TNF-? mRNA, IL-6 mRNA of KCs were measured with RT-PCR. Results LPS induced NF-?B activation of KCs, decreased I-?B content of KCs, and increased expression levels of TNF-? mRNA and IL-6 mRNA markedly. PDTC could diminish the above effects of LPS on KCs. Conclusions NF-?B activation induced by LPS may induce cell injury by promoting expressions of TNF-? mRNA and IL-6 mRNA in KCs. PDTC could decrease mRNA expression of proinflammatory mediators by suppressing excessive NF-?B activation in KCs.

Objective To explore the role of endotoxin during hepatic ischemia reperfusion (HIR) in rats. Methods Wister rats were randomly divided into endotoxin, HIR and HIR plus endotoxin (HIRE) groups. In the HIR group, hepatic reperfusion was performed after 60 minutes of ischemia by interruption of the arterial and portal venous blood supply to the left lobes and middle lobes of the rat liver. In the HIRE group, LPS(1.0mg/kg) was injected via the dorsum vein of rat penis after ischemia and reperfusion. In the endotoxin group, LPS (1.0mg/kg) was injected via the dorsum vein of penis in the rats without ischemia and reperfusion. The NF-?B activities in the liver tissue of the rats were determined with EMSA. TNF-? expression levels in the liver tissue of the were measured with immunohistochemical staining. Serum ALT levels of the rats were also measured. Results NF-?B activity increased after reperfusion and remained high 12h after reperfusion in HIRE group compared with endotoxin group and HIR group. Both TNF-? expression levels and serum ALT levels increased markedly after reperfusion in HIRE group. Conclusion Endotoxin during HIR could induce hepatic injury. Endotoxin induced liver injury possibly by activating NF-?B followed by the subsequent expression of proinflammatory mediators in the liver tissue.

Objective To develop a mobile application and to investigate the feasibility to support exercising in patients with chronic ob-structive pulmonary disease (COPD) in home. Methods TheCOPDmobile application include 6 function modules including exercising, exercising reminder, ranking, the basic knowledge of disease, exercising statistics and questionnaire collecting. 15 eligible patients with COPD were recruited in the outpatient departments of a tertiary hospital in Beijing by convenience sampling method from August to Decem-ber, 2015. They received Redmi 2a phones and were taught to use COPD application pre-installed in phones. They were asked to useCOPDapplication to support exercising at home for 1 month. Study outcomes included user satisfactions and exercising data. Results 14 (93.3%) patients thoughtCOPDapplications were helpful for exercising, 12 (80%) patients were satisfied withCOPDapplication. Some patients reported difficulty in manipulating smartphones and mobile applications. Some suggestions were put forward, such as, the stability and speed of data transmission should be improved and the sound of metronome should be increased. They exercised (44.6±8.4) minutes ev-ery day for (4.9±1.1) days per week in the latest 1 month. Conclusion Patients with COPD were highly satisfied withCOPDapplication.

Because of the rapid action and high bioavailability, traditional Chinese medicine injections (TCMIs) had been widely used in clinical critical field. In recent years, with the increasing reports of clinical adverse reaction, more and more attention was paid to them, and acute allergic reaction was the main adverse reaction. Acute allergic reaction included type-I anaphylaxis reaction and anaphylactoid reaction, the latter had been found in a variety of TCMIs and accounted for 77% of adverse reaction. But the mechanism of anaphylactoid reaction was not completely understood, the standard animal model for TCMIs was not established, and the technical guidance for anaphylactoid reaction was not formulated. Thus the three aspects included mechanism, evaluation index and evaluation methods of TCMIs for anaphylactoid were reviewed. Five ways including direct stimulating pathway, complement pathway, coagulation pathway, kallikrein-kinin pathway and acute allergic pathway were the main mechanism of anaphylactoid reaction; whole animal model and cell model were the main evaluation methods; the occurrence index and effect index were reviewed for the evaluation index analysis.

Objective To test the reliability and validity of the brief International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) core sets for Chinese stroke patients using Rasch model analysis. Methods The body functions of 38 Chinese stroke patients were measured using the brief ICF core sets. The qualifiers of the 20items were measured by two raters and analyzed using FACETS statistical software. The intra-rater reliability and validity were tested by using the separation index and separation reliability and fit analysis. Results The brief ICF core sets had good internal consistency and reliability (person separation index = 6.02, person separation reliability = 0.94 ) with these Chinese patients. The raters showed significantly different strictness in rating, but their ratings had good internal self-consistency. The construct validity was good for the body functions of the ICF component ( separation index = 10.50, separation reliability = 0.80) , but misfitting and overfitting were found in items b117, b152and b755. Conclusion The body function of the brief ICF core sets has good reliability and validity for Chinese stroke patients. A many-facet Rasch measurement model can provide comprehensive information and has good application prospects for testing the reliability and validity of ICF core sets.

Objective To discuss the influence of two recombinant hemoglobin (rHb1.1 and rHb2.0) and human serum albumin (HSA) on oxygen supply and demand balance in rat with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group, CHD model group, HSA treatment group, rHb1.1 treatment group and rHb2.0 treatment group, 20 rats in each group. Rat model of CHD was established by high fat diet combined with pituitrin injection. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) decreased to 40 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) after femoral arterial blood was drawn from the femoral arteries, and the rats were resuscitated with 13.4% HSA, rHb1.1 and rHb2.0, respectively, at the rate of 60 mL·kg-1·h-1 (20 mL/kg). The changes of electrocardiogram (ECG) ST-segment were calculated before model reproduction and at 12 hours after the last time injection of pituitrin. MAP, heart rate (HR), superior mesenteric artery blood flow (QSMA) and arterial blood gas analysis were recorded at 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after the administration. The blood was collected after 12-hour fasting, and serum total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) were determined by enzymatic method. The pathological changes in cardiac tissue were observed with light microscope. Results Compared with the normal control group, the changes of ECG ST-segment and TC, TG of model group were significantly increased. Compared with the model group, rHb can significantly reduce the value of ST segment changes, and HSA has no such effect; rHb short-term infusion has no significant effect on blood lipids, but can reduce myocardial pathological changes. Compared with the normal control group, the MAP of the model group decreased significantly, the HR was increased, the QSMA was slowed down, the pH value, the residual alkali (BE), the arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) and HCO3- were decreased significantly. MAP in rHb1.1 group and rHb2.0 group were significantly higher than those in HSA group. Values of MAP were significantly higher in rHb2.0 group than those in rHb1.1 group at 90 minutes and 120 minutes (mmHg: 80.9±3.3 vs. 69.4±4.9, 79.2±4.0 vs. 69.1±3.7, both P < 0.05). The HR of HSA, rHb1.1 and rHb2.0 decreased to normal in 30 minutes after administration, significantly lower than those in the model group (bpm: 534±46, 518±28, 526±37 vs. 609±52, all P < 0.05). In the rHb2.0 group, the QSMA increased significantly at 60, 90 and 120 minutes compared with the model group (qv·mL-1·min-1: 5.6±0.4 vs. 3.9±0.6, 6.2±0.6 vs. 4.1±0.4, 6.9±0.7 vs. 4.0±0.3, all P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the HSA group and the rHb1.1 group. The pH, BE, PaCO2 did not return to the normal level after administration of HSA; pH, PaCO2 and HCO3- in the rHb1.1 group returned to normal level at 60 minutes after administration, and BE returned to normal level at 90 minutes after administration. Each index in rHb2.0 group can restore to normal levels 30 minutes ahead of. Conclusion Recombinant hemoglobin can significantly improve the oxygen supply and demand balance of rats with CHD model, can quickly and effectively correct the hypoxic state of blood metabolic acidosis, and rHb2.0 has better effect than rHb1.1.
