To investigate the effect of the disequilibrium of calcium homeostasis on the apoptosis of MDCC-MSB1 cells induced by lanthanum chloride(LaCl3 ), MDCC-MSB1 cells was conventionally cultured in RPMI1640, which was tured for 24 h, MTT was utilized to detect the cell multiplication inhibition ratio,DNA ladder and TUNEL to detect apoptosis,the Fura-2/AM as the probe to detect the [Ca2+]i within cells. The results indicated when LaCl3 concen and [Ca2+]i also increased,and presented a dose-effectiveness relationship. LaCl3 could restrain the proliferation of MDCC-MSB1 cells,suggesting their apoptosis induced by changing [Ca2+]i.

Objective To investigate the influences of imatinib on Survivin gene expression in bcr-abl-transformed leukemia cells.Methods Firstly,PCR and Western blot were carried out to detected Survivin expression with imatinib treatment in 32Dcl3 and 32D-bcr-abl cell lines.Then the luciferase reporter plasmids containing human Survivin promoter as well as its deletion and site-directed mutation were constructed to identify the essential responsive elements for suppressing Survivin promoter activity by imatinib.Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed to confirm the binding of c-myc to Survivin promoter.10058-F4,a small molecule c-myc inhibitor,was used to disrupt c-myc activity and evaluate its anti-leukemic effect combined with imatinib.Results Both of mRNA and protein level of Survivin in bcr-abl-transformed cells were downregulated upon imatinib treatment.The decrease of Survivin expression was controlled at the transcriptional level through a mechanism in which imatinib repressed survivin promoter activity by disturbing the interaction between c-myc and E-box elements.Interruption of c-myc activity by 10058-F4 exerted an anti-leukemia effect with enhancing the sensibility of K562/G01 cells to imatinib.Conclusion Imatinib down-regulates Survivin expression through c-myc-mediated transcription and interference with c-myc might be a potential utility for treatment of imatinib resistant leukemia.

Objective To understand the blood pressure level of the aged in longevous area of Yunnan Province. Methods According to the forth census information,typical multistaged sample-survey was used for 15 counties (cities) with centenarians over 1/100 000 and the 3 counties (cities) with centenarians under 1/100 000. The blood pressure of people aged 60 and over were measured and the investigation questionnaire was filled in. Results The overall level of the blood pressure was systolic pressure (130.8?24.6) mm Hg and diastolic pressure (81.7?14.6) mm Hg. The systolic pressure increased in slow slope with the age growing, ranged 126.2-137.6 mm Hg, and higher in male than in female. The diastolic pressure was not affected by age growing. The difference of blood pressure in nationality was mainly affected by the latitude and the elevation. Conclusions With the age increasing, the blood pressure level of the aged people gradually increases.

SUMMARY Tuberculous aneurysm of the aorta is a very rare disorder. There have been only 50 reported cases of tuberculous aneurysm since 1895 till now, of which 88% were false aneurysms with majority being single in number. And only four were found to have multiple tuberculous aneurysms. The mean ages of the patients were 50?16 years. Treatment of tuberculous aortic aneurysm must be a combined medical and surgical approach. Once tuberculous aneurysm is identified, surgery must be performed promptly. The size of the aneurysm does not influence the need for surgery. A 70-year-old male with intermittent episodes of abdominal pain after receiving an inappropriate antitubercular therapy for pulmonary tuberculosis was diagnosed as multiple false tubercular aneurysm of abdominal aorta. An aneurysm of base 3.3 cm and greatest diameter 5 cm?6 cm was seen just above the opening of Coeliac trunk. Also at the dorsal aspect of abdominal aorta and superior mesenteric artery junction and ventral aspect of renal artery false aneurysms were seen, each with the size of 1 cm in diameter. Apart from antitubercular and antimicrobial treatment, first line surgery Endovascular Exclusion of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm was performed for ruptured false abdominal aortic aneurysm. Even before the second line surgery, smaller abdominal aortic aneurysms got ruptured and the patient ’s party gave up further treatment. Finally the patient died of gastrointestinal haemorrhage.

Objective To investigate the interference effect of baicalin on acute brain injury induced by aconitine in rats and its mechanism. Methods A total of 200 Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into five groups:normal control,baicalin control,aconitine poisoning,baicalin 15 mg/kg intervention and baicalin 30 mg/kg intervention groups(each,n=40). Aconitine(20μg/kg)was given via tail vein in aconitine poisoning group. The rats in the normal control group and baicalin control group were respectively injected with saline 2 mL/kg and baicalin 30 mg/kg via tail vein. The aconitine poisoning rats were given with baicalin at the dose of 15 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg respectively in the low and high dose baicalin intervention groups within 2-3 minutes after injection of aconitine. Rats in all groups in the study were anesthetized and sacrificed at 1,6,12,24 hours after various agents were respectively given in the groups,the rat cerebral cortex samples were collected,the histological changes in normal and baicalin control groups and pathological changes of the aconitine poisoning rats were observed,the levels of glutamate(Glu),aspartate(Asp),γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA),glycine(Gly)were detected and the apoptotic cells were determined at the above time points. Results Compared with the normal control group,the aconitine poisoning group had significantly higher levels of excitatory amino acids Glu and Asp and the number of apoptotic neurons. After exposure to aconitine for 1 hour, the levels of inhibitory amino acids of GABA and Gly were markedly decreased in the rat cortex in the poisoning group compared to the normal control group(both P<0.05),at 6 hours and 12 hours they were significantly increased and after 24 h,they began to decline,but still maintained at relatively high levels. Compared with the aconitine poisoning group, after baicalin intervention for 1 hour,in the 15 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg baicalin intervention groups,the levels of Glu and Asp were markedly decreased〔Glu(μmol/L):309.39±14.59,307.22±23.69 vs. 370.46±40.31,Asp(μmol/L):143.43±8.36,129.12±4.86 vs. 222.97±6.26〕,while the levels of GABA and Gly were increased〔GABA(μmol/L):55.91±4.76,59.61±13.11 vs. 32.05±2.20,Gly(μmol/L):32.33±1.85,33.90±0.66 vs. 21.96±4.75〕,and the number of neuronal apoptosis was obviously decreased(cell/mm2:18.65±4.10,14.80±1.89 vs. 58.15±3.68,both P<0.05). Under microscope and electron microscope,the pathological and ultrastructural changes indicated that the aconitine poisoning group had the most marked cerebral cortex damage at 12 hours after poisoning,while the two baicalin intervention groups showed milder damage than that in aconitine poisoning group. Conclusions The neural toxic effect of aconitine in rats may be related to the imbalance between the neurotransmitter contents of excitatory Glu. Asp and inhibitory GABA,Gly in the cerebral cortex. Baicalin can decrease the contents of excitatory amino acid and elevate the inhibitory amino acid,therefore it may ameliorate the cerebral injury of acute aconitine intoxication in rats.
