OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of Ginkgo biloba extract combined with olmesartan me-doxomil in the treatment of essential hypertension,and to discuss its effect on the expression of serum protein. METHODS:98 pa-tients with essential hypertension were selected and randomly divided into observation group A and observation group B,with 49 cases in each group;40 healthy volunteers were included in control group. Observation group A was given Olmesartan medoxomil tablet 20-40 mg,po,qd;observation group B was given Olmesartan medoxomil tablet 20-40 mg,po,qd+ Extract of G. biloba leaves tablet 40-80 mg,po,bid. Treatment course lasted for 4 weeks. Blood pressure(SBP and DBP),TCM symptom score,the repeti-tiveness and resolution ratio of 2-DE spectrum,protein differentiation expression point,related information of differentiation expres-sion protein in 3 groups and ADR of observation group were observed. RESULTS:After treatment,SBP,DBP and TCM symptom score of observation group were significantly lower than before;those indexes after 4 weeks of treatment were significantly lower than those after 2 weeks after treatment;the observation group B was significantly lower than the observation group A,with statisti-cal significance(P<0.05). The repetitiveness and resolution ratio of protein differentiation expression point in observation group B were significantly better than in observation group A after treatment. The expression of 15 protein points in observation group down-regulated before treatment,and up-regulated after treatment to different extents;the observation group B was closer to control group,compared to observation group A. The expression of 6 protein points up-regulated,and then down-regulated to different extent after treatment;the observation group B was closer to control group,compared to observation group A. A total of 11 protein points were identified. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between observation group A and observation group B (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:G. biloba extract combined with olmesartan medoxomil greatly influences the expression of serum pro-tein in patients with essential hypertension and shows good antihypertensive and pressure-control effects with good safety.

Objective:To investigate the effect of dimethyl amiloride (DMA) on invasive activity of PGCL3 cells from a human highly-metastatic lung carcinoma cell line in vitro and elucidate its possible mechanism. Methods:The invasion and migration capacities of PGCL3 cells were measured by using Transwell chamber assay after pretreatment with DMA. The effects of DMA on the activity of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) secreted by PGCL3 cells were measured by chromogenic substrate assay. The effects of DMA on uPA, urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), and PAI-1 mRNAs transcription were determined by RT-PCR. The expression levels of extracellular regulated protein kinases 2 (ERK2) and ras protein were assessed by Western blot. Results:DMA inhibited invasion and migration capabilities of PGCL3 cells in vitro, down-regulated the mRNA transcription of uPA, uPAR and PAI-1, as well as up-regulated the expression of ras protein. After 24-hour treatment, DMA reduced the activity of uPA at higher concentration, but DMA had no effects on the activity of secreted PAI-1 protein and expression of ERK2 protein. Conclusion:DMA inhibits the invasion and migration of highly-metastatic lung cancer PGCL3 cells. The mechanism might be associated with down-regulation of the expression of uPA system.

Objective: To investigate the effect of amiloride on in vitro invasive activity and uPA (urokinase-type plasminogen activator)system of human highly metastatic lung carcinoma cell line PGCL3. Methods: At 6 hours after treatment with amiloride at the concentrations of 25μmol/L，50μmol/L and 100μmol/L for PGCL3 cells，Transwell Chamber assay was performed to detect the effect of amiloride on the invasive and migratory capacity of PGCL3 cells.Effect of amiloride on the activity of uPA and PAI-1(plasminogen activator inhibitor-1)secreted by PGCL3 cells were measured by chromogenic substrate assay after PGCL3 cells were incubated with amiloride for 24 hours.RT-PCR was used to analyze the effect of amilorede on mRNA levels of uPA，uPAR(urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor)and PAI-1.The expression levels of uPA，ERK2(extracellular regulated protein kinases 2)and ras protein were assessed by Western blot. Results: The number of cells through membrane was significantly decreased in invasion and migration test in vitro.The inhibitory rates of invasion and migration after treatment with amiloride of 100μmol/L were 37.7%±4.1%and 64.9%±4.9%.respectively,with a significant difference from those in the control group(P<0.01).At 24 hours after amiloride treatment，the chromogenic substrate assay showed direct inhibition of the activity of uPA and PAI-1 secreted by PGCL3 cells.No effect on the expression of uPAR in mRNA level was observed,but the expression of PAI-1 in mRNA level was significantly inhibited.Amiloride of 100μmol/L dramatically inhibited the expression of uPA mRNA.The expression level of uPA protein was decreased with the increase of the concentration of amiloride,but no effect was observed on the expression of ERK2 and ras in protein level.Conclusion: Amiloride can inhibit the invasion and migration of PGCL3 cells,through inhibiting the expression and activity of uPA and PAI-1.Amiloride is a potential agent to inhibit cancer invasion and metastasis.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of neonatal tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).Methods A total of 134 patients were admitted and diagnosed as TSC in Beijing Children′s Hospital,Capital Medical University from September 2006 to September 2015.The clinical characteristics of TSC in 8 patients who had clinical symptoms initiating from the neonatal period (skin lesion,neurologic abnormality,etc.) were analyzed,so as to conduct the auxiliary examinations (skin biopsy,ultrasonic cardiogram,cranial imaging) and the follow-up results.Results Among 8 patients,4 were diagnosed as TSC in the neonatal period while other 4 were diagnosed at later period from 4 months to 14 years old.Six patients had skin lesions in neonatal period,accounting for 75% of 8 patients,with predominant symptoms:hypomelanotic macules (5 cases),angiofibroma (2 cases),and shagreen patch (1 case).Cardiac abnormalities in neonatal period mainly included cardiac rhabdomyoma,which were characterized by high incidence,multi-regional occurrence,and wide distribution,noticed in 4 patients (50%).Ultrasonic cardiogram showed a mass in 4 patients with moderate-strong echo,uniform texture and clear boundary,and slight effect on tricuspid valve blood flows (in 1 case).Electrocardiogram abnormalities were found in 1 case,like atrial premature beats with intraventricular aberrant conduction,and accelerated atrial escape.Neurologic abnormality of neonatal TSC could present convulsive seizures.Cranial imaging lesions showed subependymal nodules (3 cases),leukodystrophy (2 cases),and giant-cell astrocytoma (1 case).Evidence for TSC2 gene positive and heterozygous mutation was identified in 1 case.The nucleic acid mutation site was at c.268C>T (E4),and the amino acid mutation was p.90Q>X.The mutant effect was nonsense mutation,which could lead to premature termination of protein translation.Conclusion The clinical characteristics of neonatal TSC may involve multi-system lesions,most commonly seen in the skin,cardiac,and ner-vous system.Neonatal physical examinations,cranial CT/magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac ultrasound screening should be done for the suspected TSC patients,and genetic diagnosis may contribute to the early diagnosis of the disease.

Aim and Methods To investigate the effect of UCN-01(7-hydroxystaurosporine) on cell migration and invasion ability of DU-145, an invasive human prostate cancer cell line.Results It was found that UCN-01 at non-cytotoxic doses (100 nmol· L-1) significantly inhibited prostate cancer DU-145 cell invasion and migration behaviors.Moreover, this anti-invasion and migration activity of UCN-01 was associated with an up-regulation of cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin. Conclusion These results indicate for first time that UCN-01 inhibits the invasion and migration of human prostate cancer cells.Thus, clinical application of UCN-01 may contribute to the potential benefit for suppression of prostate cancer invasion and metastasis.

Objective To compare the effects of fluoxetine and transcuataneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on central pain after spinal cord injury (SCI) using a sham-controlled crossover method.Methods Ele-ven patients with central pain after SCI were randomly divided into two groups which were then subject to 2 phases of treatment.Patients in group 1 were treated by oral intake of fluoexetine for 4 weeks followed by TENS treatment for 4 weeks.Those in group 2 were treated in the reverse sequence.A fifteen day washout period was arranged between the two phases of treatment.The short-form McGill pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ) and the Beck depression inventory (BDI) were used to assess all patients pre-and post-treatment.Results SF-MPQ scores were reduced significantly after either fluoexetine or TENS treatment.After each phase of treatment there was no significant difference between the two groups.Significant improvement in terms of BDI scores was found with fluoxetin treatment in both phases of the trial,but not with TENS treatment.Conclusions Both fluoxetine and TENS can alleviate central pain after SCI,and fluoxetine can relief patients' depression at the same time.
