OBJECTIVETo investigate electrocardiographic (ECG) and angiographic characteristics of patients with acute solitary posterior myocardial infarction. Patients complicated by inferior wall or right ventricular infarction were excluded.
METHODECG and angiographic changes in 11 patients with acute solitary posterior myocardial infarction admitted to our emergency room from 2001 to 2006 were analyzed.
RESULTSBesides typical ST segment elevation in V(7)-V(9) leads, other ECG manifestations in these patients included V(1)-V(2) R/S > or = 1 (9/11, 81.8%), 1 - 2 mm ST depression in V(1)-V(4) (5/11, 45.5%), 0.5 - 1.5 mm ST elevation in I, aVL leads (4/11, 36.4%) and 0.5 - 1.5 mm ST elevation in V(5)-V(6) leads (5/11, 45.5%). Coronary angiography showed that left circumflex artery (LCX) was the infarction related artery in all cases. The infarction area located before OM1 origination in 1 patient with a 95% pipe-like stenosis (1/11), after OM1 origination in 6 patients (6/11, 4 with total occlusion, 1 with sub-total occlusion and 1 with 90% long length stenosis), in OM1 in 4 patients (4/11, 2 with total occlusion, 1 with sub-total occlusion and 1 with 95% local stenosis). There were 3 patients (27.3%) with single vessel lesion, 4 patients (36.4%) combined with left anterior descending artery (LAD) lesion, 2 patients (18.2%) combined with right coronary artery (RCA) lesion and 2 patients (18.2%) combined with LAD and RCA lesions.
CONCLUSIONSAcute posterior myocardial infarction should be suspected with V(1)-V(2) R/S > or = 1 and V(1)-V(4) ST depression in standard 12 leads ECG. Besides symptoms and cardiac enzyme measurements, recording posterior leads electrocardiogram and performing coronary angiography will help to make the correct diagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect and safety of Zedoary Turmeric Oil (ZTO)-eluting stents for post-coronary stenting restenosis prevention and treatment in the experimental dogs.
METHODSBare stents, stents coated with polybutyl methacrylate/Nano silica, and stents eluted with 100 microg ZTO were randomly deployed in canine anterior descending or circumflex coronary artery. Four weeks after stent implantation, the dogs were sacrificed and the vascular histomorphologic changes in the stenting segment analyzed.
RESULTSThickened intima could be seen under light microscope in the bare or coated stents, but thinner in ZTO-duting stent, with no sub-intimal hemorrhage, medial or adventitial necrosis, wall adhesive thrombus, or infiltration of inflammatory cells. Scanning electric microscopy showed the intima was intact. Histomorphologic analysis showed that the thickness and area of neo-intima, and the lumen stenosis percent in artery stented with ZTO eluting stents were significantly lower than those stented with bare or coated stents (P <0.01), and thus the lumen cavity was expanded (P < 0.01), while no statistic significant difference between polymer and bare stents was found (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONZTO-eluting stent is available and safe, and it could significantly inhibit the growth of neo-intimal in canine coronary mode after stenting, showing a restenosis preventive and treatment effect.

OBJECTIVETo induce the differentiation of K562/MDR1 cells into dendritic cells (DC) with multidrug resistance property.
METHODSK562/MDR1 cells and K562 cells were cultured in the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4 to generate DC and matured by TNF-α. On d14 K562/MDR1-DC and K562-DC cells were harvested and the expressions of CD1a, CD83, CD80, CD86, HLA-ABC and HLA-DR were assessed by flow cytometry (FCM). The antigen presentation function of K562/MDR1-DC and K562-DC was determined by allogenic mixed lymphocyte reaction (Allo-MLR). The expression of P-glycoprotein and the intracellular accumulation of daunorubicin (DNR) were detected by FCM. The sensitivity of K562/MDR1-DC and K562-DC cell to vincristine, adriamycin was measured using MTT assay.
RESULTSBoth K562/MDR1 and K562 cells were differentiated into dendritic cells in the presence of cytokine cocktails, showing the morphologic and immunophenotypic characteristics of DC. K562/MDR1-DC more markedly enhanced proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes in MLR than K562-DC. High level expression of P-glycoprotein and efflux of DNR were demonstrated in K562/MDR1-DC. K562/MDR1-DC showed multidrug resistance property, with higher IC(50) to VCR and ADM than that of K562-DCs.
CONCLUSIONK562/MDR1 cells can be differentiated into DC with the presence of cytokines, the induced K562/MDR1-DC cells express high level of P-glycoprotein and acquire the multidrug resistance property.

OBJECTIVETo study the safety and efficacy of control-releasing arsenic trioxide (As2O3)-eluting stent on intimal smooth muscle cells (SMC) and type III collagen (CIII) in canine coronary artery post-stent model.
METHODSTwenty-four experimental canines were equally divided into 4 groups, the three tested groups were deployed by stents with different dosage of As2O3 (1.6 microg/mm2, 2.4 microg/mm2 and 3.2 microg/mm2 in low, median and high dose groups, respectively) and coated with polybutyl methacrylate/nano silica and poly-lactide-coglycolide in mild oversizing (stent/vessel ratio of 1.3:1) in left anterior descending (LAD) or circumflex coronary arteries (LCX), while the control group only by simple coated stent without As2O3. The effect was assessed 4 weeks after stent implantation in terms of vascular histomorphology, and changes of SMC and C III expressions were detected using immunohistochemical analysis.
RESULTSSubintimal hemorrhage, medial/adventitial necrosis, thrombosis and inflammatory cell infiltration were not found and integral endothelium could be seen under screening electron microscopy in all groups. Positive expression of SMC and CIII in the tested groups, especial in the high dose As2O3 group, was more weaker than that in control group. Histo-morphological analysis showed that the neo-genetic intimal area and vascular stenosis were lower, but the mean luminal diameter was larger in the three tested groups than that in the control group (P < 0.01). Comparisons of various indices between tested groups treated by different doses of As2O3 showed that the difference between high/median dose vs. low dose was significant (P < 0.01), but that between high dose vs. median dose was insignificant (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONControl-releasing As2O3-eluting stent shows a reliable and safe effect in preventing and treating post-stent restenosis by its dose-dependent inhibition on expressions of SMC and CIII to suppress the neo-genesis of intimal hyperplasia.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effects of scalp penetration acupuncture and conventional scalp acupuncture for treatment of acute apoplexy, to seek the effective location and mechanism of scalp acupuncture treatment for acute apoplexy.
METHODSSixty cases of the apoplexy were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. Basis on the neurological treatment, the observation group was treated with penetration needling through Baihui (GV 20) to Taiyang (EX-HN 5) on the affected side, with four needles relay; the control group was treated with penetration needling at anterior oblique line of parietotemporal region, with four needles relay. After 14 days of treatment, the neurological deficit scores (NDS) and the therapeutic effects were compared before and after treatment, and the contents of plasma endothelins (ET) and the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) were tested respectively on the 2nd and 14th day after treatment.
RESULTSThe effective rate of 86.7% (26/30) in the observation group was superior to that of 80.0% (24/30) in the control group; the NDS of both groups were obviously decreased after treatment (both P < 0.01), the improvement degree in the observation group was better than that of the control group (P < 0.01); the ET level was obviously decreased and the CGRP level was obviously increased in both groups after treatment (all P < 0.01), and the range of change was more significant in the observation group (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONPenetration needling through Baihui (GV 20) to Taiyang (EX-HN 5) is an effective treatment for acute apoplexy, which is better than conventional scalp acupuncture.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of atorvastatin on expressions of scavenger receptor A and secretion of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in foam cells.
METHODSTHP-1 cells were induced to differentiate into macrophages by PMA and treated with 0.1% BSA (control), ox-LDL (100 mg/L) or ox-LDL plus atorvastatin (5, 10, 20 micromol/L) for 24 hours. MCP-1 concentration in cell substratum was measured by ELISA. Scavenger receptor A expression was observed under fluorescent microscope after incubated with DiI-Ac-LDL. The relationship between concentration of MCP-1 and the activity of scavenger receptor A was also analyzed.
RESULTSCompared to the control cells, MCP-1 concentration in ox-LDL treated cells was significantly increased after 6 hours, peaked at 12 hours and was still significantly increased after 24 hours (all P < 0.05 vs. baseline). The activity of scavenger receptor A was also significantly increased in ox-LDL treated cells (P < 0.01 vs. control). The activity of scavenger receptor A proteins correlated positively to the concentration of MCP-1 in ox-LDL treated cells (r = 0.683, P < 0.01). Atorvastatin significantly attenuated these changes in a dose-dependent manner.
CONCLUSIONSScavenger receptor A and MCP-1 expressions were significantly increased in the course of monocyte lines THP-1 differentiating into macrophages and foam cells. The anti-atherosclerosis effect of atorvastatin might be partly achieved by inhibiting the secretion of MCP-1 and expression of scavenger receptor A in foam cells.
