Objective To detect attenuated plaque by using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to investigate the influence of attenuated plaque on perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Coronary angiography and IVUS were performed in 85 hospitalized patients with AMI, additional implantation of stent was employed when necessary. According to the presence or absence of attenuated plaque determined by IVUS, the patients were divided into attenuated plaque group(n=35) and non-attenuated plaque group(n=50). The perioperative IVUS findings, the blood flow classification after myocardial infarction thrombolysis (TIMI) and the postoperative peak value of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) determined were compared between the two groups. Results Among the 85 AMI patients, attenuated plaque was detected in 35 (41.2%) and no attenuated plaque was found in 50(58.8%). No statistically significant differences in the age, sex and risk factors existed between the two groups (P>0.05). The proportion of having attenuated plaque in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was obviously higher than that in patients with non-STEMI (P<0.01). In performing coronary angiography, the difference in TIMI blood flow classification between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05), but after balloon dilatation the TIMI grade 0-2 in theattenuated plaque group was strikingly higher than that in the non-attenuated plaque group (P=0.003). After PCI, the proportion of patients with elevated CK-MB value and higher peak value in the attenuated plaque group was remarkably higher than those in the non-attenuated plaque group (P<0.01). Conclusion The results of this study indicate that attenuated plaque can increase the incidence of no-reflow and slow reflow after PCI, which is more often seen in STEMI patients. The attenuated plaque carries significantly high risk, and the presence of attenuated plaque is helpful in predicting, the elevated extent of CK-MB value after PCI.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Ebselen on mitochondrial damage and its influence to Cytochrome C expression and the neuronal apoptosis after spinal cord injury in rats. Methods Sixty adult SD rats were ran-domly divided into 5 groups (12 each group). Spinal cord injury model was made using Allen's method. Sham operation group received only laminectomy;SCI group received laminectomy and spinal trauma;Saline group received saline injection intraperitoneally (0.1%DMSO) after injury;methylprednisolone group received 30 mg/kg methylprednisolone injection intra-peritoneally, ebselen group received 10 mg/kg ebselen injection intraperitoneally. The malonaldehyde (MDA) and glutathi-one (GSH)level at the injured sites of the spinal cord were detected 24 hours after trauma, and the expression level of Cyto-chrome C was also observed. Finally, neuronal apoptosis was identified by TUNEL staining. Results MDA level in the Eb-selen group was significantly lower than that in the SCI group, and GSH level was significantly elevated in the Ebselen group compared with SCI group (P<0.01). Expression of Cytochrome C in Ebselen group was lower than that in SCI group shown by Western blot, and the neuronal apoptosis in Ebselen group reduced significantly too compared with SCI group (P<0.01). Conclusion Ebselen can alleviate peroxidation,prohibit expression of Cytochrome C and inhibit neuronal apoptosis,thus it shows a protective effect to experimental acute SCI.

Objective To investigate drug resistance and genotypes of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from intensive care unit (ICU). Methods MRSA strains were isolated from patients, medical staff and environment of hospital ICUs. Disk diffusion (K-B method) was used for drug resistance testing; Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) and Staphylococcal protein A (spa) typing methods were used for genotyping and identifying the homology. Results There were 78 strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated including 62 isolates of MRSA, which were mainly from the burn ICU (22, 35.48%). Among 62 MRSA strains, 50 were hospital acquired strains, in which 43 isolates were of SCCmec Ⅲ, 4 of SCCmec Ⅰ and 3 of SCCmec Ⅱ. Twelve isolates could not be typed. Twenty-eight out of 37 hospital acquired isolates were typed by spa typing as SCCmec Ⅲ-t030, which belonged to the same clone. Conclusion MRSA in ICU is multi-drug resistant and SCCmec Ⅲ-t030 is the most prevalent genotype, which indicates that clinical MRSA strains and environmental MRSA strains may be homologous.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor in down-regulating the expression of HER-2 in breast cancer cells and to provide an innovative therapeutic option to overcome the disadvantages of anti-HER-2 therapy. Meth-ods:HER-2-positive breast cell lines were treated with HDAC inhibitors. The changes in the gene and protein levels of HER-2 were de-tected by qPCR and Western blot. MiRNA microarray was used to identify the HDAC inhibitors, whereas qPCR was used to verify the miRNA expression. Results:In vitro cell experiments confirmed that the HDAC inhibitors TSA and SAHA can down-regulate the expres-sion of HER-2 in breast cancer cell lines. TSA can down-regulate the expression of HER-2 gene in BT474 and decrease the concentra-tions of 100 nmol by 10.7%and 200 nmol by 38.9%(P<0.05). TSA had no effect on the primary cells. The expression of HER-2 gene of BT474 was down-regulated by 93.9%(P<0.05) in the 5μmol/L group but not in the 1μmol/L group. SAHA significantly affected the pri-mary cells at a concentration of 1μmol/L and reduced the cells at 87.1%at a concentration of 5μmol/L. Seven miRNAs were identified from the miRNA microarray. MiR-762 was used as a basis to identify the changes in miRNA. The miRNA sputum identified by miRNA microarray and qPCR may be associated with the down-regulation of HER-2 by HDAC inhibitors. Conclusion: HDAC inhibitors may down-regulate the expression of HER-2 in breast cancer cells by changing some miRNAs.

Objective To determine whether the presence of coronary collateral lfow, as evidenced by angiography, has a beneifcial effect on left ventricular function in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by means of early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Between April 2012 to November 2013, 95 patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI successfully were analyzed. According to the Rentrop grade, these patients were divided into 2 groups:collateral circulation group (n=16) and non-collateral circulation group (n=79). The left ventricular function was evaluated within 24 hours after PCI and 30 days later. Results Comparison of 2 groups showed that collateral lfow was associated with better left ventricular ejection fraction within 24 hours and 30 days after PCI. And non-collateral lfwa was associated with more ventricular aneurysm formation. Conclusions The presence of angiographically detectable collaterals has a protective effect on left ventricular function in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by primary PCI.
