BACKGROUND:Systemic lupus erythematosus is a kind of heterogeneous disease, and the difference of clinical features may also be the risk factors of osteonecrosis besides of treatment with glucocorticoids according to the literature. However, it remains controversial on the risk factors of osteonecrosis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
OBJECTIVE:To systematical y review the major risk factors of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
METHODS:The CNKI database, CBMdisc database and Wanfang database were retrieved for the published case-control study literatures on the risk factors of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. The literatures met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included, and a Meta-analysis was conducted by RevMan 5.0 and Stata software. Then, the pooled odd ratio and 95%confidence interval of each risk factor were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ten case-control study literatures were included involving 332 cases in the case group and 986 cases in the control group. The pooled odd ratio and 95%confidence interval of each risk factor of osteonecrosis in the Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus were as fol ows:Raynaud’s
phenomenon 3.28(1.69-6.38), dental ulcer 2.95(2.13-4.09), renal involvement 1.21(0.83-1.74), vasculitis 5.64(2.84-11.21), hyperlipidemia 5.11(3.10-8.42), anti-phospholipid antibody 2.32(1.49-3.61) and joints involvement
2.02(1.33-3.07). It has been clear that the glucocorticoids is an independent risk factor of osteonecrosis in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. However, it is not the one and only risk factor. The fol owing risk factors of
vasculitis, hyperlipidemia, Raynaud’s phenomenon, dental ulcer, positive anti-phospholipid antibody and joints involvement are the risk factors of osteonecrosis in the patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Objective To evaluate the effect of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase inhibitor LY294002 combined with dichloroacetate on apoptosis in human pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and AKT/GSK-3β/HK-2 signaling pathway.Methods Human pulmonary arterial SMCs were seeded into culture plates at a density of 2 x 104 cells/ml after 3-5 passages.After being incubated for 72 h,the SMCs were cultured in the medium supplemented with 0.2％ fetal bovine serum for 24 h to induce starvation prior to experiments.The cells were then randomly divided into 6 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),positive control group (group F),LY294002 group (group L),different concentrations of dichloroacetate groups (D1 and D2 groups),and LY294002 combined with dichloroacetate group (group LD1).In group C,the cells were cultured in the medium supplemented with 0.2％ fetal bovine serum.In F,L,D1,D2 and LD1 groups,the cells were cultured in the medium supplemented with 10％ fetal bovine serum.LY294002 2 μmol/L was added to the medium in group L.Dichloroacetate l0 and 20 mmol/L were added to the medium in D1 and D2 groups,respectively.In group LD1,LY294002 (2 μmol/L) was added,and 30 min later dichloroacetate 10 mmol/L was added to the medium in LD1 group.The cells were incubated for 48 h.Flow cytometry was used to measure the cell apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential.The expression of phosphorylated AKT (p-Akt),phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3β (p-GSK-3β),and hexokinase-2 (HK-2) was detected using Western blot.Apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with group C,apoptosis rate was significantly increased,and mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased in D2 and LD1 groups,the expression of p-Akt,p-GSK-3β and HK-2 was up-regulated in group F,and no significant changes were found in apoptosis rate and mitochondrial membrane potential in F,L and D1 groups.Compared with group D2,apoptosis rate was significantly increased,mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased,and the expression of p-Akt,p-GSK-3β and HK-2 was down-regulated in LD1 group.The expression of p-Akt,p-GSK-3β and HK-2 was significantly lower in D2 and LD1 groups than in group F.Conclusion LY294002 combined with dichloroacetate can promote apoptosis in human pulmonary arterial SMCs possibly through blocking AKT/GSK-3β/HK-2 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the content variation rule and influencing factors of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(5-HMF)in the extraction process of the herbs Schisandra chinensis and improve the quality of monitoring the extract of Schisandra chinensis. METHODS:High performance liquid chromatography was adopted to determine the contents of 5-HMF in the extracts during the extraction process (decoction,vacuum concentration,alcohol precipitation,vacuum drying,alkali adjustment),and the content variation rule was found out. For vacuum drying during which the content of 5-HMF reduced obviously,the effects of the tempera-ture and time of drying on the content of 5-HMF were studied,and the effects of vacuum drying and freeze drying on the 5-HMF contents were compared. RESULTS:The content variation trend in the extraction process of Schisandra chinensis was as follows as a large amount of 5-HMF was produced in the herbs decoction process;the content of 5-HMF increased during concentration,re-duced during the alcohol precipitation and the vacuum drying of the extracts by three times concentrate,and maintained substantial-ly unchanged during alkali adjustment. In the process of vacuum drying,the content of 5-HMF decreased with temperature rise and time extension. Freeze drying had no effect as good as that of vacuum drying in the reduction in the content of 5-HMF. CON-CLUSIONS:It is suggested that the vacuum drying of the extracts by three times concentrate at higher temperature,which may pro-duce the extract of Schisandra chinensis with lower content of 5-HMF and thus improve the quality of Schisandra chinensis extract.

Objective To detect the methylation status of p16 gene promoter in CD4~+ T cells of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SEE),and its significance in the pathogenesis of SLE.Methods The pl 6 gene promoter methylation in peripheral CD4~+ T cells was detected with the Taqman probe-based realtime PCR(Methylight)technology in 28 patients with SLE and 20 healthy human controls.Results The methylation rate of p16 gene promoter in peripheral CD4~+ T cells was higher in patients with SLE than that in the controls(35.7%VS 10%,x~2=4.11,P<0.05).There was no correlation between SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI)and the normalized index of methylation(NIM)of p16 gene promoter(r_s=-0.29,P>0.05).Conclusion The methylation status of p16 gene promoter is aberrant in CD4~+ T,:ells of SLE patients,suggesting that the hypermethylation of p16 gene plays a certain role in the pathogenesis of SLE.
