[Objective]To explore the relationship between peripheral arterial disease(PAD)and diabetic retinopathy(DR)in type 2 diabetes patients.[Methods]A total of 99 patients diagnosed with PAD were classified into grade 1-3 by their total scores of peripheral arterial stenosis assessed by color doppler ultrasound examinations,where the degree of stenosis 30% ~ 49% scored 0, 50%~99%scored 1,lumen occlusion(i.e. degree of stenosis 100%)scored 2,and therefore the total score 0-2 was categorized into Grade 1 ,3~4 into Grade 2 ,5~12 into Grade 3. The bilateral anterior tibial artery ,posterior tibial artery and dorsalis pedis artery of these patients were analyzed. The presence of diabetic retinopathy(DR)was graded from retinal photographs using a standard protocol.[Results]Among 99 cases of type 2 diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease ,58.6%of them were male with average age of 67.3 ± 7.9 years old. Patients of Grade 1,Grade2,Grade 3 lesion accounted for 45.4%,30.3%,24.2%,respectively. Age, gender,smoking history,SBP,DBP,BMI,FBG,TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,HbA1C among 3 groups were not statistically signifi-cant. The associations of DM duration and HbA1C value were significantly larger in DR than in PAD. The proportion of DR patients increased with the severity degree of PAD(p for trend=0.004). Degree of stenosis Grade 2 and Grade 3 could be predictive for DR.[Conclusions]DR is associated with the severity degree of PAD in type 2 diabetes patients as evaluated by duplex ultrasonography.Degree of stenosis Grade 2 and 3 could be used for screening or finding DR. Strategies for optimum treatment and early prevention are needed.

The aim of this study is to establish the method of loop-mediated indirect PCR assay for detection of Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV) infection and differentiation of highly pathogenic PRRSV (HP-PRRSV) and lowly pathogenic PRRSV (LP-PRRSV). Based on the alignments of ORF2 gene sequences and ORFla gene sequences of PRRSV Chinese isolates deposited in GenBank, two pairs of specific probes were designed and labeled to both ends of the soybean Lectin gene fragment by PCR, respectively. The probe-labeled soybean Lectin genes were used to be reporter genes for detection and differentiation of PRRSV. After one round strand displacement reaction, the reporter genes were amplified by reverse PCR. The specific PCR products were 193bp, 355bp for HP-PRRSV and 193bp, 442bp for LP-PRRSV, respectively. The method could detect 5. 6 TCID50/mL LP-PRRSV RNA and 18 TCIDs0/ mL HP-PRRSV RNA, and co-infection did not affect detection sensitivity. No amplification was observed with other porcine originated pathogens including CSFV, PPV, PRV, PCV2, ETEC and Haemophilus parasui. Twenty clinical samples were used for comparative testing with conventional PCR. Fourteen samples were found positive for PRRSV by the loop-mediated indirect PCR, of which 4 were LP-PRRSV, 9 HP-PRRSV and 1 LP/HP-PRRSV co-infection, consistent with the conventional PCR test results. In conclusion, the loop-mediated indirect PCR is a simple, rapid, sensitive and specific etiologic diagnosis tool, and suitable for the differential diagnosis of HP/LP-PRRSV, especially for identification of mixed infection of HP/LP-PRRSV.

OBJECTIVETo screen long non-coding RNA which influences radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma cell lines and investigate the mechanism.
METHODSUnder different doses of radiation, colony formation assay and single-hit multi-target model were conducted to draw dose-survival curve and SF2 value of colorectal carcinoma cell lines(RKO, Lovo) was calculated. High-throughput lncRNA/mRNA chips were used to screen lncRNA genes and protein coding genes with expression differences more than 2 folds between RKO, Lovo cell lines and RKO cell line receiving 2Gy radiation. The main action pathway was computed by Gene Ontology analysis combined with Pathway analysis in order to explore the mechanism which induces the effect of lncRNA on radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma cell lines. Further experiment on P53, P21, cyclin D1 expression contents of RKO cell line was confirmed by real-time RT-PCR.
RESULTSLovo(SF2=0.47) was more sensitivity to radiation than RKO(SF2=0.53) according to the outcome of colony formation assay. High-throughput lncRNA/mRNA chips identified a total of 268 lncRNA genes and 270 protein coding genes. Gene Ontology analysis showed that the expression of genes associated with cell cycle process were significantly different (38.6%). There was a significant relationship between expression of several lncRNAs and CCND1 gene. Real-time RT-PCR showed no significant differences of P53 and P21 expression in RKO and Lovo cell lines(P>0.05), while cyclin D1 expression of RKO cell line was higher than that of Lovo cell lines(P<0.05). After exposed to 2 Gy doses of radiation, there was an obvious decrease of cyclin D1 expression in RKO cell lines(P<0.05), while P53 and P21 expressions were not different(P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe possible mechanism is that lncRNAs compose transcription compound to combine with CCND1 gene and influence radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma cell lines by regulating expression of cyclin D1, which is independent of P53-P21-cyclin D1 pathway.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) expression on the radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma cell lines in vitro.
METHODSThe vector of shRNA for RNA interference was constructed and then transfected into HCT116 cell line to steadily down-regulate the expression of MRP4. HCT116 cells were divided into 3 groups including the CON group(non-transfected), NC group (negative control virus was added), and KD group (RNAi target was added for transfection). To test the effectiveness of RNA interference, real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to measure the expression pattern of MRP4 at both mRNA and protein levels, respectively. For the examination of the effect of RNA interference of MRP4 on the radiosensitivity, flow cytometry was used to calculate the rate of apoptotic cells 24 h after 4 Gy radiation. Proliferation of the cells was measured via MTT assay at different time points.
RESULTSShRNA plasmid was successfully constructed. Transfection of this constructed vector into HCT116 cell line caused steady silencing of MRP4 expression (HCT116-KD). MRP4 mRNA and protein expression were significantly down-regulated following RNA interference(P<0.05). Twenty-four hours after radiation, the apoptosis rate of KD cell line was (71.7±0.8)%, significantly higher than that in the CON group [(56.1±0.9)%] and NC group[(59.8±0.8)%](P<0.05). Fourty-eight hours and 72 hours after radiation, the proliferation was significantly inhibited in KD cells compared to the control groups(P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSExpression of MRP4 is closely related to radio-tolerance of colorectal carcinoma. Down-regulation of MRP4 expression by RNA interference enhances radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma cell lines in vitro. MRP4 may be an effective molecular marker for predicting the radiosensitivity of colorectal carcinoma.
