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.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of FLPNF and the improvement of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion against dexamethasone-induced apoptosis of islet cells. Methods INS-1 cells were treated with oligopeptide FLPNF and dexamethasone, either separately or in combination. Proliferation of INS-1 cells in each group was assessed with CCK-8 assay and the insulin secretion stimulated by glucose was detected by ELISA. The apoptotic condition of the cells was observed and assessed with TUNEL and the apoptosis rate of each group was detected using flow cytometry. The expression of major target protein molecules related to apoptosis and Glut2 was detected by Western blotting analysis. Results Dexamethasone inhibited the growth of INS-1 cells in the group treated with dexamethasone. Cell damage was obvious with observable nuclear shrinkage and nuclear rupture. In addition, apoptosis rate was found to be 40.6％±2.4％. The expression of the apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2 and Glut2 was significantly reduced, whereas that of Bax and caspase-3 was significantly increased. After the combined treatment of oligopeptide FLPNF and dexamethasone, the results were reversed, and the apoptosis rate declined to 27.2％±2.0％ (P ＜ 0.001), cell morphology was improved, and the expression of apoptosis-related protein molecules of islet cells and protein Glut2 was significantly improved. Conclusion FLPNF has the ability of protecting islet cells from dexamethasone-induced apoptosis and improving the glucose-stimulated insulin secretion of islet cells.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of thalidomide combined with VAD regimen (vincristine+epirubicin+dexamethasone) or VAD regimen alone in treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) by using metaˉanalysis. Methods Thalidomide combined with VAD regimen was selected as the experimental group and VAD regimen alone was selected as the control group. The literatures were searched from CNKI, Wanfang and VIP database. And then the inclusive literatures were further searched. Randomized controlled trials eligible to the exclusive criteria were extracted, and the quality was evaluated. Metaˉanalysis was conducted by using Stata14.0 software. Results A total of 17 studies and 940 patients were included. The experimental group had a higher total effective rate compared with the control group , and the difference was statistically significant ( RR＝ 1.41, 95% CI 1.30-1.59, P< 0.01). Meanwhile, the experimental group had a better efficacy in improving hemoglobin and deducing βˉmacroglobulin (MG), M protein and myeloma cells compared with the control group; however, the experimental group also had a worse gastrointestinal reaction, and the difference was statistically significant ( RR＝ 1.36, 95% CI 1.04-1.78, P＝ 0.024). Conclusion Thalidomide combined with VAD regimen in treatment of MM has a better clinical efficacy compared with VAD regimen alone, but it also has a worse adverse reaction.
