Strokes due to atrial fibrillation (AF) are common and frequently devastating.While oral anticoagulant agents are the mainstay in the prevention of embolic events,they have several limitations and not all patients can tolerate them long term.The left atrial appendage (LAA) has been identified as the source of thrombus formation in nonvalvular AF.Several LAA closure devices have been developed,they have been successful in stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular AF and fewer periprocedural complications.This article reviews the application of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular AF.

Methods A total of 130 patients with renal hypertension were enrolled and randomly divided into a study group (68 patients) and a control group (62 patients). Both groups were given prescription of lower sodium diet, exercising and enalaprilscheme. On this basis, the control group plus valsartan, and the study group was further added withTianma-Gouteng decoction. After 2 courses treatment, renal function, and blood pressure of both groups were compared, and clinical efficacy on blood pressure were evaluated.Results After treatment, the SBP (126.8 ± 9.1 mmHg vs. 134.1 ± 8.8 mmHg,t=4.648), DBP (82.4± 5.0 mmHgvs. 85.3 ± 5.4 mmHg, t=3.167), Scr (148.5 ± 46.3μmol/Lvs. 172.1 ± 52.0μmol/L, t=2.723), BUN (8.3 ± 2.7 mmol/Lvs. 9.7 ± 3.1 mmol/L,t=2.734) and 24hAlb (1.7 ± 0.6 gvs. 1.9 ± 0.7 g,t=2.209) in the study group were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05 orP<0.01). The total effective rate in the study group was significantly increased than that in the control group (91.2%vs. 79.0%;χ2=0.383,P=0.050).Conclusion Valsartan combined with Tianma-Gouteng decocntion can reduce blood pressure, and alleviate the kidney damage effectively.

Objective To evaluate the role of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in hepatocytes in reduction of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by limb ischemic postconditioning in rats.Methods Forty-eight healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 240-280 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S);I/R group;limb ischemic postconditioning group (group LIPC);limb ischemic postconditioning and atractyloside group (group LIPC + APC).In I/R,LIPC and LIPC + APC groups,I/R injury was induced by 30 min occlusion of the hepatic artery and portal vein entering the left and middle lobes of the liver,followed by 120 min of reperfusion.The animals underwent 10 min of bilateral limb ischemia starting from 20 min after liver ischemia in group LIPC.In group LIPC+APC,the animals underwent 10 min of bilateral limb ischemia starting from 20 min after liver ischemia,and atractyloside 5 mg/kg was infused simultaneously via the penile vein.Blood samples were collected from inferior vena cava at the end of reperfusion to detect plasma aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activities.The rats were sacrificed,and the left lobe of the liver was removed to detect the degree of mPTP opening and to examine the ultrastructure of hepatocytes under electron microscope.Results Compared with group S,the plasma ALT and AST activities and degree of mPTP opening were significantly increased,and the damage to the ultrastructure of hepatocytes was obvious in the other three groups.Compared with group I/R,the plasma ALT and AST activities and degree of mPTP opening were significantly decreased,and the damage to the ultrastructure of hepatocytes was reduced in LIPC and LIPC + APC groups.Compared with group LIPC,the plasma ALT and AST activities and degree of mPTP opening were significantly increased in group LIPC+APC.Conclusion Limb ischemic postconditioning reduces hepatic I/R injury through inhibiting mPTP opening in hepatocytes of rats.

Objective To investigate the inhibition of proliferation and the regulation of histone acetylation modification in Jurkat cells treated by sodium valproate(VPA). Methods Jurkat cells were treated with VPA.Cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8 assay, and cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). mRNA of HDAC1 was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, and protein expression of HDAC1 and acetylation of histone H3, H4 was examined by Western blotting. Results VPA inhibited the proliferation of Jurkat cells in concentration-and time-dependent manners. After exposure to VPA in different concentrations for 48h,cell cycle was arrested obviously at G0/G1 phase (P <0.05), and with increasing concentration, the percentage of G0/G1 phase cells was increased and that of S phase were decreased. HDAC1 mRNA expression were inhibited with the increasing concentration of VPA. The protein level of HDAC1 was down-regulated, while acetylation of histone H3、H4 was up-regulated in Jurkat cells by VPA. Conclusion VPA can inhibit proliferation of Jurkat cells and induce G0/G1 phase arrest. The mechanism may be that VPA increase acetylation of histone H3/H4 by inhibiting expressions of HDAC1 gene.
