Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2014;37(3):227-229
Objective To study the correlationship among plasma lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2),hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and D-dimer levels of coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.To evaluate their relationship and prognostic values.Methods Case control study.This study enrolled 150 CHD patients,130 age and gender compared health control.The clinical data were recorded and plasma Lp-PLA2,hs-CRP and D-dimer were test.Lp-PLA2 was test by enzyme kinetics method,hs-CRP and D-dimer were test by immunonephelometry method.The blood were also test low density lipoprotein cholesterol and myocardial injury markers such as troponin I,myoglobin,creatin kinase MB.The numbers of lesion coronary arteries were confirmed by percutaneous coronary intervention operation.Student t-test and mann-whitney U test were used to compare two groups datas,analysis of variance was used to compare more than three groups datas,spearman test was used for correlationship analysis between groups.Results The Lp-PLA2,hs-CRP and Ddimer of CHD group were (43.62 ±13.23) g/L,5.09 mg/L(95% CI:0.56-74.15),173.0 mg/L(95% CI:103.0-966.5),respectively.They were higher than healthy control group whose values were (21.49 ± 7.63)g/L,2.61 mg/L(95 % CI:0.37-45.12),68.0 mg/L (95% CI:48.0-540.6),respectively.The difference were statistical significant (t =2.69,U =67.52,U =37.84,P < 0.001).After correlation with clinical data,the Lp-PLA2 was correlated to LDL(r =0.487,P < 0.001) and the numbers of coronary artery lesion (r =0.260,P =0.018).D-dimer was correlated to hs-CRP(r =0.263,P =0.011),it was also correlated to NYHA heart function level (F =23.78,P =0.001).Conclusions Lp-PLA2 is important in lipid metabolize,especially in LDL metabolize.Lp-PLAz can be used to predict severity of coronary artery lesion.Hs-CRP correlated to D-dimer level and cardiac injury markers.It stated link between inflammation and thrombosis.D-dimer is increasing with NYHA level.Lp-PLA2,hs-CRP and D-dimer are correlated to coronary artery lesions,they are good prognostic indices for coronary heart disease patients.

Corneal endothelial cell(CEC)is the most critical part for the cornea, of which activity can influence the postoperative vision.It is very important for the clinical cornea preservation considering the function and its self-purification of donor cornea.There are a variety of classical methods, which can significantly prolong the saving time of donor cornea with its good quality of CEC.We reviewed the published papers about present preservation methods of cornea, which can give us many suggestions for the clinical cornea preservation.

AlM:To investigate biological measurement parameters of anterior segment in acute angle- closure glaucoma ( AACG) .METHODS:Forty-six eyes of 46 patients with AACG and 52 eyes of 52 patients with shallow anterior chamber and 50 eyes of 50 normal individuals were examined. The parameters of anterior segment including chamber crowd rate (CCR), lens thickness (LT), lens position (LP) and anterior chamber depth ( ACD ) were measured by A-ultrasound according to different ages in each group. The data were performed statistical analysis in three groups.RESULTS: ln each age range group (≥50 ~ 59 years old, ≥60 ~ 69 years old, ≥70 years old ) , statistically significant differences in three groups ( AACG, shallow anterior chamber group and the controls ) were found in CCR, LT, LP, ACD (P<0. 01). There were statistically significant differences only in CCR (P<0. 01) but not in LT, LP and ACD ( P > 0. 05 ) between AACG and shallow anterior chamber group in each age range group.CONCLUSlON: CCR can be used as the index of evaluating crowding state of anterior segment in AACG patients and the sensitivity is better than LT and LP.

?AlM: To evaluate the long - term effects of laser peripheral iridectomy ( LPl ) and trabeculectomy in treating early chronic angle-closure glaucoma.
?METHODS: Ninety-eight patients (102 eyes) with early chronic primary angle-closure glaucoma were randomly divided into two groups. Group A of 50 patients (54 eyes) was treated with LPl and group B of 48 patients (48 eyes) with trabeculectomy. After 3 - 8y of follow - up observation, comparison would be made from the perspectives of postoperative eyesight, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber angle, visual field and cup/disc ratio ( C/D) .
?RESULTS:ln group A, 24 eyes with eyesight declining, 22 eyes with theintraocular pressure>21mmHg (1mmHg=0. 133kPa), 21 eyes with chamber angle synechia >180o, 21 eyes with visual field narrowed, 21 eyes with C/D ratio enlarged. The results of group B for the same items were 10, 5, 4, 4, 4 eyes respectively. The comparative difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05).
?CONCLUSlON:Good effects will be achieved for early-stage chronic angle - closure glaucoma with surgical method. Trabeculectomy is obviously better than LPl for the long-term effects.

In this paper 3 different media (A,for yeast cultivation ; B, for laccase producing; D, for white rot fungi cultivation) were compared in enriching and screening decolorizing fungi culture using Reactive Black 5 (RB5) and Reactive Red (M-3BE) from the following three points: decolorization effects, abilities of producing enzymes and diversity of microbial community. 11 groups of fungi with obvious decolorization effects were obtained after enrichment for near one month. Among them, 6 groups came from medium D, the other two 3 groups from medium A and B, respectively. However, the 3 groups from medium A exhibited the highest microbial diversity and best decolorization results with 99.53% and 97.42% color removal rate of Reactive Red M-3BE and Acid Red. From them, 16 strains of fungi were isolated and primarily identified as Saprolegniaceae, Eurotiaceae (Monascus went), Erysiphaceae and Physodermataceae. Fungi groups from medium B and D exhibited a bit lower color removal rate of various dyes and only 3 and 2 isolates primarily classified as Saccharomycetaceae and Eurotiaceae (Penicillium) were obtained from them. Fungi cultures in medium A and B could produce lignin peroxidase, and those in medium D could be detected higher activity of laccase. All the fungal cultures exhibited very weak activity of manganese dependant peroxidase.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of nuclear factor-kappaB (NK-kappaB) on differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (MSC) into neurons induced by baicalin.
METHODSUsing baicalin as main inducer, differentiation of rats' MSC was induced into NC in serum-free medium, at the same time, untreated cells were cultured in serum-free medium as the control group. The expression of NC special marker protein and the presence of NK-kappaB subunits RelA (P65) translocated into nucleus were determined by immunofluorescent cytochemical stain, the change of expression of NK-kappaB inhibitory protein (IkappaBalpha) were determined by Western blot, and the apoptotic index was assessed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated d-UTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay.
RESULTSMSC displayed typical shape of NC and expressed several NC marker protein after induced by baicalin, while those changes were not revealed in the control group. but showed translocation of P65 from cytoplasm to nucleus, and the markedly reduction of IkappaBalpha expression, the apoptotic index being 28.2+/-6.1 %. After induced by baicalin, the P65 still revealed mainly in cytoplasm with the level of IkappaBalpha expression decreased lesser and the number of apoptosis cell (12.2+/-2.8%) lower than those in the control group, P <0.01.
CONCLUSIONBaicalin could inhibit NK-kappaB activation, and it has certain effect in inducing the differentiation of MSC into NC.
