Objective To explore the effect of TLR2 on collagen Ⅰ(colⅠ) in adipose tissue of high-fat-diet induced obese mice.Methods Male C57bl/6J mice and TLR2 knockout mice were divided into groups according to high fat diet or normal chow.Total collagen, TLR2, colⅠ, MMP1, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue were measured at the end of the experiments.Results Total collagen, TLR2, colⅠ, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA, and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue increased while MMP1 in adipose tissue decreased in mice with high fat diet.Decreased levels of total collagen, colⅠ, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue were detected in TLR2 gene knockout mice with high fat diet.However, there was an increased level of MMP1 in TLR2 gene knockout mice with high fat diet.Conclusion In high-fat-diet induced obese mice, deposition of colⅠ in adipose tissue seems to be alleviated by TLR2 gene knockout via MMP1 and TIMP1.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the working efficiency of the drug delivery system. METHODS:The kinds of drugs in delivery system and manual dispensing window were adjusted through comparing the number of prescriptions and drug box dis-pensed by the system and manual window in our hospital before adjustment (Jun. 2014),combining with analysis of EIQ(En-try-item-quantity)-ABC. The improvement effect was evaluated through analyzing related index after adjustment(Aug. 2014). RE-SULTS:The data before adjustment showed the workload of the delivery system was lower than that of manual delivery in term of the number of drug box (P=0.000),and they were similar in term of the number of prescription (P=0.122). The drug delivery system was significantly better than manual delivery in terms of two indexes after resetting the type of drugs in the system(P=0.000). CONCLUSIONS:Optimized delivery system can effectively improve the working efficiency.

Objective To investigate the expressions and the clinical significance of nectin-4 in pancreatic carcinoma and the relationship with clinicopathological features. Methods Immunohistocbemical techniques were used to detect nectin-4 expression in pancreatic carcinoma tissues (n = 40) and normal pancreatic tissues (n = 12 ), and the relationship between the expressions and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. Results The IOD and area of nectin-4 were 2. 43 ± 0.75 and 9. 73 ± 1.86 in pancreatic carcinoma tissues, which were significantly higher than those in the normal pancreatic tissues( P < 0.01 ).The expression of nectin-4 was not correlated with patients demographics ( P > 0.05 ), and the protein expression was correlated with histopathologic grade ( P < 0.01 ) and lymph metastasis ( P < 0.05 ).Conclusions The high expression of nectin-4 in pancreatic carcinoma tissues suggests that its high expression may be correlated with the malignant degree of the carcinoma. nectin-4 can be considered as a reference index of differentiation, metastasis and prognosis in pancreatic carcinoma.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on enhancing rat islets viability and function in vitro by a pretransplant co-culture.Methods4-week-old Wistar rats were used as donors, bone mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and subcultured. Islets of Wistar rats were isolated and purified by one-step single-layer Histopaque-1077. Then islets were divided into four groups randomly, 2 groups co-cultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (one using low-glucose medium; the other using high-glucose medium ); 2 groups were cultured alone (low-glucose medium; high-glucose medium), each group was further stratified into 3 subgroups(3, 7, 14 d); the survival and functionality of these islets were observed and evaluated. The amount of glucose stimulated secreted insulin were measured wth a rat/mouse insulin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit and stimulation index was also calculated.ResultsCompared with those not co-cultured, islets co-cultured with MSCs demonstrated significantly higher survival rates and viability both in 3th, 7th and 14th day ( P < 0. 01 ); furthermore, cocultured islets revealed higher levels of glucose stimulated insulin secretion and secretion indexes in 7th day (P<0.01).ConclusionRat islet cells co-cultured with MSCs have longer in vitro survival and better functions.

Objective To investigate the potential of pancreatic stem cells (PSCs) directed differentiation in vitro, and to evaluate the effects of differentiated PSCs allograft on the treatment of diabetes.Methods The PSCs of adult Wistar rats were separated and purified in vitro. The surface of PSCs was determined by immunofluorescence staining, and then it was stimulated by hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and nicotinamide to induce directed differentiation. Dithizone dyeing was used to determine the islet-like cells after induction, and ELISA staining method was used to detect the insulin levels. Streptozotocin peritoneal injection was used to induce the diabetic rat mode. 40 rats were randomly allocated into pancreatic islet cells allograft group (experiment group) and placebo group. The serum insulin and glucose levels 1 d before transplantation and 1, 2, 3, 4 week after transplantation were measured. Results PSCs of adult Wistar rats were successfully obtained, and the expression of CK19, Pdx-1 and Nestin on cell surface was positive. Dithizone dyeing for directed differentiation cells showed brownish red color. The cells could express and secrete insulin after hyperglycaemia stimulation. The serum insulin and glucose levels 4 week after transplantation were (11.41 ±1.52) mU/L and (8.22 ± 2.7) mmol/L, which were (9.30 ± 1.56) mU/L and (12.23 ± 3.8) mmol/L in the placebo group, and difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions PSCs can be induced and directed differentiated in vitro into islet-like clusters with insulin secretion function. And its allograft has the potential for the treatment of diabetes.

Objective To explore the generalization and application of R-W1 through the phase analysis of Wave intensity technique.Methods The phases of R-W1 of 66 healthy adults were detected by Aloka Prosound α10 color Doppler uhrasound.Results There were all statistical significances in the time difference of R-W1 in left and right common carotid arteries and right brachial artery(P<0.01),in the pressure wave conductive time in left and right common carotid arteries(P<0.05),in right brachial artery and both sides of common carotid arteries(P<0.01).There were no statistical significances in the time from the starting point to the culminate point of W1 in left and right common carotid arteries.There were statistical significances in the time from the starting point to the culminate point of W1 in right brachial artery and both sides of common carotid arteries(P<0.05).Conclusions"R-W1 almost equals to pre-ejection period"as reported by literatures actually involves three phases which respectively are isovolumetric contraction time of left ventricle,pressure wave conductive time and time from the starting point to the culminate point of W1.The factor of pressure wave conductive time should be considered when evaluating diseases in clinic.The pre-ejection time should be the time from the culminate point of R wave in ECG to the starting point of W1 and the time from the starting point to the culminate point of W1 should not be involved in.
