Objective To investigate the effect of pigment epithelium- derived factor (PEDF) on p38MAPK-CREB pathway and the expression of fibronectin (FN) in human mesangial cells (HMCs) cultured with high glucose. Methods HMCs were treated with different concentrations of glucose and the osmotic control respectively in the presence or absence of PEDF for 24 h:normal glucose (5.6 mmol/L),24.4 mmol/L mannitol,high glucose (30 mmol/L),high glucose+PEDF(30 mmol/L glucose with 10 nmol/L PEDF,40 nmol/L PEDF or 100 nmol/L PEDF).After samples were collected,the expression of phospho-p38MAPK (p-p38) and p-CREB was assessed by Western blotting,while FN mRNA and protein expression was assessed with RT-PCR and ELISA respectively. Results In contrast to normal glucose and mannitol treatments,the expression of p-p38MAPK,p-CREB and FN increased significantly in high glucose group (all P＜ 0.01).However,PEDF abolished the up-regulation of p-p38MAPK,p-CREB and FN induced by high glucose (all P＜0.05). Conclusion PEDF may inhibit fibrosis through P38MAPK-CREB pathway in diabetic nephropathy.

0.05).Conclusion TP may have protective effects on chronical hypoxia induced polycythemia in rats.

Objective Effect of spirulina's complex preparation(SACP) on morphologies and protein expression of HSP70 in myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver tissue were investigated in the mice during 4-week prolonged exhaustive exercise . Methods Male mice were divided into 5 groups as follow: N(control), M(exercise with moderate intensity), MS(exercise with moderate intensity plus spirulina supplementation), F(exercise with increasing intensity) and FS(exercise with increasing intensity plus spirulina supplementation). Light microscope and electron microscope were used to observe the effect of SACP on morphologies in myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver tissue in mice in group F and group FS. HSP70 protein expression was detected by immunohistochemical method. Results Under the light microscope, edema, degeneration and necroses in myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver tissues were found in the mice of group F, and fragmentation of muscle fiber, cell swelling, mitochondrial swelling and nucleoplasm solution in myocardium, skeletal muscle were found under the electron microscope in the mice of group F. The aforementioned lesions of myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver tissue in the mice of group FS were obviously alleiated. HSP70 protein expression in myocardium, skeletal muscle cells and liver cells in swimming mice was significantly higher than that in control (P0.05). Conclusions SACP had protecting effect against the microtrauma in myocardium, skeletal muscle and liver tissues caused by prolonged exhaustive exercise, and the effect was probably related to the improvement of the protein expression of HSP70 affected by SACP supplementation.

AIM: To investigate the indications and therapeutic effect of the conservative treatment and surgical treatment for vitreous hemorrhage.
METHODS: Hemorrhage reasons, degree of illness, and treatment and final results of vitreous hemorrhage were recorded from 2008 to 2013, and curative effect of different treatments was analyzed.
RESULTS:Selected 22 cases ( 24 eyes ) of conservative treatment, vision degree of 6 eyes ( 25%) had raised, 5 eyes ( 21%) occurred secondary retinal detachment without treatment, 3 eyes (12. 5%) suffered neovascular glaucoma were underwent operation, but the vision had lost completely. In 26 cases ( 31 eyes ) of control (operation) group, vision of 17 eyes (55%) had improved, 2 eyes (6. 5%) suffered the second operation, 2 eyes (6. 5%) suffered the third surgery, 3 eyes (10%) suffered eyeball atrophy. The number of ultimate vision improved with conservative treatment were significantly lower than the number of cases with surgical treatment (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The surgical treatment is still visible vitreous hemorrhage treatment means of positive, but there will be eyeball atrophy and other serious complications, so we should choose a different methods in according to the different treatment objects and treatment time.

Objective To observe the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) in the cerebral tissue following hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE) in newborn rats and explore the machanism of inosine in protecting against hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD).Methods Sixty-six newborn rats aged 7 days were divided into sham,control and experimental groups.HIE models were made by clamping the right cervical artery and making hypoxia for 2 hours.The rats in experimental group began injecting inosine,at 1 day before experiment,and the rats in the sham and control groups saline solution with same dose.The samples were made at the given time,and expressions of VEGF and COX-2 were investigated by immunohistochemical technique.Results The cerebral tissue had no expression of VEGF and COX-2 in sham group.From 2 hours on cortex and striatum after HIE in control and experimental groups,expressions of VEGF and COX-2 increased rapidly,peaking at 12-24 hours,and then decreased gradually.Expressions of VEGF and COX-2 were higher in experimental group(All P

Objective To observe the effect of different doses of propofol injection and propofol medium/long-chain fat emulsion injection in short time infusion on plasma ketone body ratio,to eva-lute its effecton hepatic energy metabolism.Methods Forty patients,aged 18-50 years old,ASA Ⅰ orⅡ undergoing selective surgery were randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 cases in each;propofol injection 4 mg·kg-1·h-1 maintain anesthesia (group L4 ),propofol injection 6 mg·kg-1·h-1 maintain anesthesia (group L6 ),propofol medium/long-chain fat emulsion injection 4 mg·kg-1·h-1 maintain anesthesia (group M4 ),propofol medium/long-chain fat emulsion injection 6 mg·kg-1·h-1 maintain anesthesia (group M6 ).MAP,HR,SpO2 and PET CO2 were recorded before anesthesia induction (T0 ),after tracheal intubation (T1 ),after 2 hours infusion of propofol (T2 )and operation completed (T3 ).The blood samples were collected at T1 and T2 to detect the level of acetoacetate,β-hydroxybu-tyrate and to calculate the blood ketone body ratio (the ratio of acetoacetate andβ-hydroxybutyrate). Results MAP,HR,SpO2 ,PET CO2 at T0-T3 and acetoacetate,β-hydroxybutyrate,blood ketone body ratio at T1 ,T2 showed no significant statistic difference.Conclusion Different doses of propofol and different doses of propofol medium/long-chain fat emulsion injection in short time continuous in-fusion has no obvious effect on hepatic energy metabolism;same dose of propofol injection and propo-fol medium/long-chain fat emulsion injection in short time continuous infusion has no obvious effect on hepatic energy metabolism.
