Pulmonary hypertension has now become a common diseases threaten to human health .There are many factors that can cause pulmonary hypertension , such as heredity, immune injury, inflammation and endothelial function damage , etc.In recent years, studies have found that patients with pulmonary hypertension commonly have the phenomenon of iron deficiency , and intravenous iron agent can improve that , but the specific mechanism is unclear .Iron in the human body mainly is controlled by a protein called hepcidin, it inhibits iron flow from the gastrointestinal to the blood .Thus, intravenous iron administration can provide new options for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension .This paper reviews the progress of the iron deficiency and pulmonary hypertension .

Objective To investigate the proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction effect of thalidomide(Thal) and its joint effect with 5-Fu on MGC-803 cell line. Methods The morphological changes of MGC-803 cells with AO/EB stain were observed under fluorescence microscope. The proliferation inhibition effeet was evaluated with MTT. The apoptosis induction effect was determined by FAM. Results The results of MTr array were as below: the difference was significant between Thai groups of 25 mg/L or above concentration and the control group (P＜0.05), 5-Fu of all testing concentrations showed significant difference compared with the control gToup(P＜0.01). For combined groups with the same concentration of 25 mg/L 5-Fu,combined groups showed distinct difference from the corresponding 5-Fu group (P＜0.01), but two combined groups showed no distinct difference with each other (P＞0.05). For combined groups with the same concentration of 5-Fu 12.5 mg/L, 5-Fu plus 50 mg/L or 100 mg/L Thai showed no distinct difference from 5-Fu group of 25 mg/L(P＞0.05). With FAM study, all test groups showed significant difference compared with the control group (P＜0.01). There was also significant difference between two test groups arbitrarily (P＜0.01).Conclusion Both Thai and 5-Fu could inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of MGC-803 cells.The effect is reinforced with the combination significantly. Combination with Thai could decrease the concentration of 5-Fu but have the similar effect.

Objective To study the expression of BMI-l gene in children with acute leukemia and its clinical significance.Methods The clinical specimens of 46 children with acute leukemia who were diagnosed lately in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and other hospitals in Zhengzhou from Jul.1,2008 to Apr.30,2009 were collected,while peripheral blood specimens of 30 healthy children were collected as control group.With the guardians′ informed consent,the experiment was approved through the hospital ethics committee.The level of BMI-1 mRNA′s expression was tested using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),while data were analyzed through the application of SPSS 12.0 statistical software.Results 1.The level of BMI-l gene′s expression in children with acute leukemia was significantly higher than that in control group(P0.05),after complete remission,BMI-1 mRNA was not detected in the 2 groups;4.Compared with the complete remission group,expression of BMI-1 mRNA in the untreated group and the recurrence group was significantly higher(P0.05).Conclusions BMI-1 gene was highly expressed in children with acute leukemia,and the level of the gene expression in patients of complete remission normalized,which suggests that the gene may be involved in the occurrence and the development process of leukemia;therefore,it is possible to regard the gene as a molecular marker to evaluate the development,relapse and prognosis of the patients with acute leukemia.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the contents determination of cholic acid,hyodeoxycholic acid and deoxy-cholate acid in Naoxueshuan tablet.

CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple and accurate,and suitable for the contents determination of cholic acid,hyode-oxycholic acid and deoxycholate acid in Naoxueshuan tablet.

BACKGROUND:Proto-oncogene c-Src plays an important role in regulating cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. At present, there were no studies concerning exercise intervention effects on c-Src expression in aortic endothelial cels so as to regulate hypertension. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of aerobic exercise on c-Src mRNA expression and c-Src activity in the aorta blood vessel endothelial cels of spontaneous hypertensive rats. METHODS: A total of 8 male Wistar rats were considered as normal control group. Sixteen spontaneous hypertensive rats were randomly assigned to 8 rats as spontaneous hypertension group and 8 rats as spontaneous hypertension exercise group. Rats in the spontaneous hypertension exercise group carried on 90 minutes unloaded aerobic swimming every day, 6 days a week, for 8 weeks. The rats in the normal control group and spontaneous hypertension group did not swim. Blood pressure of rats was measured once a week. 8 weeks later, the c-Src mRNA expression and c-Src activity were determined in aortic vascular endothelial cels of rats in each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with spontaneous hypertension group, blood pressure was lower, but c-Src mRNA expression and c-Src activity were significantly higher in the spontaneous hypertension exercise group. The c-Src activity and c-Src mRNA expression were higher in the spontaneous hypertension exercise group than normal control group and spontaneous hypertension group (P < 0.01). Results indicated that aerobic exercise can promote the increase in c-Src activity and c-Src mRNA expression in aortic endothelial cels of spontaneous hypertensive rats.

Objective To understand whether Imarcaptoacetate dioctyltin(IMA) is a environmental endocrine disruptor or not. Methods The new born Wistar rats were randomly divided into six groups including positive control group, negative control group and four experimental groups. The rats in the experimental groups were given IMA at different concentrations (0.100 0, 0.010 0, 0.001 0, 0.000 1 ?g/10 g) 1/1 000 000 by hypodermic injection, the rats in the negative control group were treated with corn oil and those in the positive control group were treated with dibutyltin dilaurate(DBTD) at concentration of 0.001 ?g/10 g bw. The rats were injected one time each day for five consecutive days. After one and half months, the levels of T, LH and FSH in the blood, the weight of the testicles, ovaries and the sexual organ exponent were determined. The pathological examination on some samples was conducted. Results In both of female and male, the levels of T in IMA treated rats were significantly increased and showed an doge-effect relationship (P0.05). The exponents of the testicles were different among groups (P
