Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of reteplase(rPA) combined with reduced glutathione(GSH) for the treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods 80 patients with STEMI received in our hospital from Feb 2010 to Feb 2013 were divided into observation group and control group according to the treatment type,with 40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with rPA for intravenous injection on the basis of conventional treatment,and the observation group was added reduced GSH intravenously on the basis of control group.The recanalization rate,myocardial enzymes levels,ventricular structure and function of the heart and major adverse cardiac events in the two groups of patients were compared.Results There canalization rate in observation group was 90％ after treatment,compared with the control group (82.5％) which showed no significant difference as compared with the control group(90％ vs.82％,P＞0.05).Serum creatine kinase-MB fraction(CK-MB),cardiac troponin(cTn) I and TcTnI and cTnT levels in observation group after 24h were significantly lower in observation group than in the control group after 24 h of treatment(t=10.44,6.008,29.63,respectively,all P＜0.05); left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDd) and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESd) in observation group were significantly shorter and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly higher in observation group than in the control group after 1 month of treatment (t =4.543,5.605,4.652,respectively,all P＜0.05).The incidence of cardiogenic shock,reinfarction,angina and arrhythmia in observation group were significantly lower in observation group than in the control group(x2=5.128,7.825,6.000,4.669,respectively,all P＜0.05).Conclusions rPA combined with reduced GSH for the treatment of STEMI had is significantly effective,safe and reliable,has fewer complications,and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To explore the relationship of sevoflurane neurotoxicity with the expres-sion of Bid,Bim,Puma.Methods The cortical neuron from newborn SD rat (within 24 h)were see-ded in 6 or 12 well plate,and then randomly divided into 4 groups.Rat culture cortical neurons in vitro exposed in 1%,2%,4% and 0% sevoflurane for 6h were divided into A,B,C and D group. The effect of neuron viability,death and apoptosis were assessed using CCK-8,LDH and caspase-3 cleavage 1 7kDa expression assay.The expressions of Bid,Bim and Puma were assessed by western blot.Results Compared with group D, there were significant increases of neuron death and apoptosis,but a decrease of neuron viability,and upregulated expressions of Bid,Bim and Puma in group B (P <0.05);Compared with group B,Group C had increased death and apoptosis and de-creased viability of neurons,as well as upregulated expressions of Bid,Bim and Puma (P <0.05 ). Conclusion Along with the increase of the concentration,sevoflurane neurotoxicity was increased by upregulation of Bid,Bim,Puma expression.

Objective To explore the mechanism of tumor-associated fibroblasts(CAFs)for regulating proliferation and migration of prostate cancer(PCa)cells.Methods We conducted a bioinformatics analysis to identify miRNAs with high expression in PCa.The proliferation,migration and hsa-miR-18b-5p expression levels were observed in PCa cells co-cultured with CAFs.We further examined hsa-miR-18b-5p expression level in 20 pairs of PCa and adjacent tissue samples and in different PCa cell lines and normal epithelial cells using RT-qPCR.In PCa cell lines C4-2 and LNCAPNC,the effects of transfection with a hsa-miR-18b-5p inhibitor on cell proliferation,migration,invasion,drug resistance,apoptosis and cell cycle were evaluated,and the effects of has-miR-18b-5p knockdown on C4-2 cell xenograft growth and mouse survival were observed in nude mice.Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to validate the targeting relationship between hsa-miR-18b-5p and its target genes,whose expressions were detected in PCa cells using RT-qPCR and Western blotting.Results The expression of hsa-miR-18b-5p was significantly increased in the co-culture of CAFs and PCa cell lines,which exhibited significantly enhanced proliferation and migration abilities.Transfection with has-miR-18b-5p inhibitor strongly attenuated the effect of CAFs for promoting proliferation and migration of PCa cells,and in C4-2 and LNCAP cells cultured alone,inhibition of hsa-miR-18b-5p obviously suppressed cell proliferation,migration,invasion,and drug resistance.In the tumor-bearing mice,hsa-miR-18b-5p knockdown in the transplanted cells significantly inhibited xenograft growth and increased the survival time of the mice.Target gene prediction suggested that FBXL3 was a potential target of hsa-miR-18b-5p,and dual luciferase reporter gene confirmed a binding site between them.In C4-2 and LNCAP cells,hsa-miR-18b-5p knockdown resulted in significantly increased expression levels of FBXL3.Conclusion CAFs promotes proliferation and migration of PCa cells by up-regulating hsa-miR-18b-5p to suppress FBXL3 expression.

Objective To investigate renal expression level of STING in mice with renal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI)and its regulatory role in IRI.Methods C57BL/6 mice were divided into sham operation group,IRI(induced by clamping the renal artery)model group,IRI+DMSO treatment group,and IRI+SN-011 treatment group.Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen of the mice were analyzed,and pathological changes in the renal tissue were assessed with PAS staining.RT-qPCR,ELISA,Western blotting,and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression levels of STING,KIM-1,Bcl-2,Bax,caspase-3,TLR4,P65,NLRP3,caspase-1,CD68,MPO,IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α in the renal tissues.In the cell experiment,HK-2 cells exposed to hypoxia-reoxygenation(H/R)were treated with DMSO or SN-011,and cellular STING expression levels and cell apoptosis were analyzed using RT-qPCR,Western blotting or flow cytometry.Results In C57BL/6 mice,renal IRI induced obvious renal tissue damage,elevation of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and renal expression levels of KIM-1,STING,TLR4,P65,NLRP3,caspase-1,caspase-3,Bax,CD68,MPO,IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α,and reduction of Bcl-2 expression level.Treatment of the mouse models with SN-011 for inhibiting STING expression significantly alleviated these changes.In HK-2 cells,H/R exposure caused significant elevation of cellular STING expression and obviously increased cell apoptosis rate,which was significantly lowered by treatment with SN-011.Conclusion Renal STING expression is elevated in mice with renal IRI to exacerbate renal injury by regulating the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway and promoting inflammation and apoptosis in the renal tissues.
