Objective To study the effect of myocardial ischemic preconditioning on activity of ATPase and creatine kinase(CK) in high blood fat rat. Methods High blood fat rat mode was established from SD rats.The rats were randomly divided into three groups: ischemic preconditioning(IPC), ischemic/reperfusion(I/R) and control group.The activity of CK in coronary outflow,the activity of malonyldialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione perodxidase(GSH-Px) and ATPase in myocardium were dectected. Results CK and MDA were significantly less in IPC group than those in I/R group.In IPC group,the activity of SOD,GSH-Px,Na~(+)-K~(+)-ATPase,Ca~(2+)-ATPase and Ca~(2+)-Mg~(2+)-ATPase were much higher than those in I/R group. Conclusion Myocardial ischemic preconditioning can protect high blood fat rat from ischemic/reperfusion injury.

Objective To investigate the relationship between nutritional risk and cognitive score in pa-tients with acute stroke .Methods From January 2015 to December 2015, 160 inpatients with acute stroke were observed and divided into two groups according to Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) scores.All the patients were on natural diets and did not receive enteral or parenteral nutrition support .Cognitive functions were evaluated using the Mini-Mental State Examination ( MMSE) within 24 hours and 6 months after the acute cere-bral artery diseases .Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the effects of nutritional risks on the cognition.Results Totally 145 patients entered the final analysis , among whom 72 had nutritional risks and 73 had no nutritional risks .The average ages of patients with nutritional risks were significantly older than those without nutritional risks [ (67.04 ±8.95) years vs.(63.10 ±9.12) years, P=0.027], along with significantly higher incidence of diabetes (75.0%vs.49.3%, P=0.001).The lesion locations showed no statistically signif-icant difference between two groups ( frontal lobe 24.5%vs.17.5%, P=0.670;parietal lobe and occipital lobe 40.8%vs.26.3%, P=0.398;basal ganglia region 51.0%vs.49.1%, P=0.490;brain stem and cerebellum 53.0%vs.42.1%, P=0.777).Compared to the patients without nutritional risks , the MMSE scores of the pa-tients with nutritional risks were lower within 24 hours, but without statistical significance (27.45 ±2.21 vs. 28.09 ±1.27, P=0.209);however, six-month follow-up showed that the MMSE scores were significantly differ-ent between two groups (24.70 ±2.16 vs.27.43 ±2.32, P=0.036).Univariate Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate factors associated with cognitive impairment (MMSE<27).NRS 2002, ages, diabetes mellitus history, and body mass index entered in the Logistic regression analysis .In all patients, ages and NRS 2002 had a positive correlation with cognitive impairment (P=0.000, OR=1.156;P=0.004, OR=2.341).Conclusion The cognitive function in stroke patients with nutritional risks is worse than in patients without nutritional risks .

Methods Inmmunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression of TGF-? 1 and TGF-? RI in 85 cases of benign and malignant ovarian tumors. Results The positive rate of TGF-? 1 in benign and malignant ovarian tumors was significantly higher than that in the normal ovarian tissues(P

Study the infect of child anorexia granule on serum ghrelin and leptin of anorexia children and its clinical efficacy. Selected 81 cases of anorexia children aged 1-6 years old into treatment group (42 cases) and control group (39 cases), in addition, 30 case healthy children as healthy control group. The control group children were treated with domperidone suspension 0.3 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1), tid, orally 30 minutes before meals. Treatment group were treated with child anorexia granule, 1-3 years 1 package, bid; 4-6 years 1 package, tid; po, 4 weeks as a course of treatment. Study the change of serum ghrelin and leptin before and after therapy. The study demonstrates that before treatment, the serum ghrelin level of disease group was lower than healthy group (P < 0.01), and the serum leptin level was higher than healthy group (P < 0.01). After treatment, the serum ghrelin level both increase, and the serum leptin decline. And the change of treatment group was significantly different with control group (P < 0.01). And the clinical effective rate are 95.23% and 74.35% (P < 0.01). After 6 months of follow-up visit, the children weight significantly increase in treatment group (P < 0.01). Results indicate that child anorexia granule can facilitate secretion of ghrelin, and inhibit secretion of leptin, so as to work up an appetite. And the molecular mechanism is its infect on serum ghrelin, leptin.

Objective To explore the related risk factors of renal function after partial nephrectomy,and provide the reference for clin-ic. Methods The data of 31 patients with small renal cancer in our hospital from January 2010 to June 2014 were analyzed. Before and after the treatment,the relationship of renal glomerular filtration rate ( GFR) with the change and clinical pathological factors were analyzed,the single factor analysis used t test,multiple factors analysis adopted multi-factor unconditioned logistic regression analysis. Results Single fac-tor analysis results showed that renal function after partial nephrectomy was closely related to the age,diabetes mellitus,blocking time,the size of the tumor,renal volume reduction ratio,the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). Many factors of logistic regression showed that it was closely related to the age,blocking time,renal volume reduction ratio(P<0. 05). Conclusion The age,blocking time,renal vol-ume reduction ratio are risk factors for renal function after partial nephrectomy.

Fungal polyketide synthases are responsible for the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites such as pigments, mycotoxins, and they are very important in pharmacology , food science and agriculture. The recent advances in the methods for the isolation and manipulation of multiple classes of polyketide synthase genes from fungi were introduced. It is useful for discovery of novel fungal polyketide synthase gene clusters. These methods can also be useful for revealing the genetic potential of fungi to produce multiple types of bioactive polyketide.

AIM: To investigate the effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG) on 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion(MPP+)-induced apoptosis in rat pheochromocytoma(PC12) cells and to explore the relationships between its roles of anti-oxidation,intracellular calcium homeostasis and anti-apoptosis.METHODS: Rat PC12 cells were pretreated with vehicle control or EGCG(10,50,and 100 ?mol/L) for 30 min,then cultured with MPP+(900 ?mol/L) for 24 h.The cell viability and apoptosis were monitored by MTT assay and flow cytometry using Annexin V and PI.The activity of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS),contents of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA),cytoplasmic Ca2+ density and apoptotic morphology of mitochondria were examined by fluorescent plate-based assays,confocal microscope,and transmission electron microscope,respectively.RESULTS: MPP+ impaired the PC12 cells in a concentration-dependent pattern and induced apoptosis of the cells(31% versus control).Compared with the control,the cells pretreated with EGCG showed markedly higher rate of viability and lower apoptosis.Meanwhile,EGCG pretreatment significantly increased the SOD activity and decreased the levels of MDA and ROS.Interestingly,EGCG also decreased the concentration of cytoplasmic Ca2+ and improved the morphology of mitochondria.CONCLUSION: EGCG exhibits inhibitory effects on MPP+-induced apoptosis in rat PC12 cells,which is possibly associated with increasing the cell ability of anti-oxidation and decreasing the concentration of cytoplasmic Ca2+.

Objective To analyze the clinical data of 112 patients with adult-measles in the Af- filiated Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital and Third People's Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University from January to June in 2005,and to evaluate the epidemiologieal and clinical characteristics of adult- measles.Methods To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 112 patients with adult-measles. Results Totally,112 measles patients were involved in this study,with male 63 and female 49 re- spectively.The gender rate was 1.3:1,average age about 32 years and the proportion of non-resi- dents was 40.18%.The peak of the incidence of disease emerged in April and May,and the positive rate of measle virus IgM antibody in serum was 96.43%.There were 97 patients(86.61%)who had the fever that beyond 39℃and 36 patients(32.14%)who had measle caused viral hepatitis.Conclu- sions There is a trend that the ages of patients that suffered from measle were postponed and the in cidences of disease are increased year by year,which maybe related to the nonstandard inoculation of measle vaccine,or the decrease of IgM antibody levels and so on.Meanwhile,serious toxemie symp- toms and liver damage can be observed.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of selective angiotensinⅡtype 1 receptor antagonist ZD7155 on pancreatic cancer xenografts of nude mice.Methods:Sixty nude mice were given subcutaneous injections of PaTu8988s cells to establish the pancreatic cancer xenograft models;then the animal models were evenly randomized into 3 groups:low-dose (10 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155,high-dose(20 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155 and normal saline groups.Ten mice in each group were sacrificed 10 d after treatment and the tumor sizes and body weights were measured.The microvessel density(MVD)was assessed by immunostaining of endothelial cells for CD31 and the cell apoptoses were observed by transmission electron microscope.Another thirty mice were treated for 30 days;the survival period of mice and toxicity of ZD7155 were observed till the 49th day of treatment.Results:Ten days after treatment,the mean tumor volumes in the control,low-dose and high-dose groups were(35.8?6.7)cm~3,(21.5?6.1)cm~3 and (10.7?4.1)cm~3,respectively(P

Aim To investigate the antagonistic action of EGCG on apoptosis of rat PC12 cell induced by MPP+.Methods PC12 cells were cultured and the apoptosis induced by MPP+(900 ?mol?L-1)was observed.The cells were randomly divided into 6 groups:blank group without any treatment,MPP+ control group,vitamin E group and EGCG groups(10,50,100 ?mol?L-1).After treatment of drugs,cell viability,leakage of LDH,morphological changes of mitochondria and apoptosis were detected by MTT,Hoechst 33342 staining,transmission electron microscope and flow cytometry,respectively.Results After treatment of cultured PC12 cells with MPP+,cell viability was decreased,leakage of LDH and apoptotic rate were increased,and mitochondria swelling,vacuole and cristae breakage were observed.Vitamin E and EGCG en-hanced cell viability,reduced the leakage of LDH and apoptotic rate,and decreased the damage degree of mitochondria.Conclusions EGCG possesses the ability of inhibiting rat PC12 cell apoptosis induced by MPP+,and its protective action may relate to its function of keeping mitochondria integrality.
