Objective To investigate the role of antisense RNA of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI 1) in regulating the expression of PAI 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in aorta endothelial cells (EC) cultured in vitro. Methods The second extron of PAI 1 was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and the product was inserted into eukaryotic cell expression vector pcDNA3.1(-) to construct PAI 1 antisence RNA recombinant plasmid. The recombinant plasmid was transfected into EC and the PAI 1 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry, Westernblot and ELISA. The effects of PAI 1 variation on VEGF were examined by immunofluorescence method. Results PAI 1 antigen was the lowest (0 017 ng/ml) in cells and the immunofluorescence representing the expression of VEGF in the cytoplasm showed the weakest at the third day after transfection. At the fifth day, PAI 1 antigen increased to 0 093 ng/ml with VEGF expression increased correspondingly. At the seventh day, PAI 1 antigen(0 143 ng/ml) and VEGF increased closed to normal level. Conclusions PAI 1 antisense RNA blocked the translation of PAI 1 proteins effectively and inhibited the expression of VEGF in aorta endothelial cells.

Objective To study the relationship of secretory type Ⅱ phospholipase A2(sPLA2),coronary artery score and atherogenic index in patients with coronary artery disease.Methods One hundred and seventy nine patients confirmed by angiography were enrolled in the coronary heart disease(CHD)group and another 89 non-CHD patients were enrolled in the control group.Serum levels of sPLA2 were measured by ELISA in all subjects.The severity of coronary artery lesions was analysed in terms of coronary artery score by quantitive computer system(QCA).The atherogenic index(AI)was also evaluated in the 2 groups.Results Compared with the control group,serum level of sPLA2 was higher in the CHD group(55.18?11.75 u/mL vs 68.15?16.70 u/mL,P

ObjectiveTo explore changes of serum adiponectin and insulin resistance in patients with endometrial cancer and to evaluate the clinical significance and correlation.MethodsThe serum levels ofadiponectinandfastinginsulinweredeterminedbyELISA, electro-chemilluminometryand radioimmunoassay in 35 patients with endometrial cancer [ all patients divided into two groups,A1 group belonged to without postmenopausal when first visiting (n =20),A2 group belonged to postmenopausal when first visiting (n ＝ 15 ) ] and 30 cases of health control.The result of homeostasis nodel assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index was calculated.ResultsThe levels of adiponectin in A1 group was lower than that ofhealth control group [(6.7±1.1) versus (10.0 ±1.4) ng/L,P＜0.05],and HOMA-IR was higher than that of health control group ( 3.5 ± 1.8 versus 1.1 ± 0.7,P ＜ 0.05 ).While there were not significant difference between A2 group and health control group (P ＞ 0.05 ).Adiponectin and insulin resistance was negatively correlated ( r =- 0.389,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Adiponectin reducing and insulin resistance in reproductive age patients may be the independent factors to promote endometrial cancers.

SIMCA(self independent modeling of class analogy) is a classical class modeling method for chemical) pattern recognition. Although widely used, SIMCA suffers difficulties in selecting a proper number of principal components and determining the decision region. A new class modeling technique based on partial least squares regression, partial least squares class model(PLSCM) is proposed, where the number of latent variables) and decision region can be readily estimated by the routine methods in multivariate calibration, e.g. Monte Carlo cross validation. PLSCM is successfully applied to identify trueborn bezoar samples from artificial and adulterated bezoar samples based on infrared spectra measured in the range of 4000-9000 cm~(-1). It is demonstrated that PLSCM outperforms SIMCA in terms of both maneuverability and identification accuracy. For the raw spectra, both the training and prediction accuracy of PLSCM are 100%. For the standard normal variate-processed data, the training and prediction accuracy of PLSCM is 99% and 100%, respectively.
