Objective To observe the selective regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) on fatty acid binding protein-4 (FABP4) in human syncytiotrophoblasts.Methods Cultivate normal human syncytiotrophoblast cells,and put in the specific antagonists and agonists of PPAR each subtypes receptors,then observe the different expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein.Results Pretreated the human syncytiotrophoblast cells with the agonists (GW7647,GW0742) and antagonists (GW6471,GSK0660) of PPARα and PPARβ receptors,the expression of the FABP4 was not significantly change (P＞0.05).However pretreated with PPARγ agonists (rosiglitazone,1 × 10-9,1 × 10-8,1 × 10-7 and 1 × 10-6 mol/L),the expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein could be dose dependent-promoted significantly (mRNA:1.27 ±0.12,1.45 ±0.14,1.57±0.14,1.72 ±0.12,protein:1.10 ±0.08,1.37 ±0.09,1.60 ±0.13,1.79 ± 0.14 ; P ＜ 0.05),furthermore,the promotion can be dose dependent-reversed by specific antagonists GW9662 (mRNA:0.92 ± 0.06,0.77 ± 0.06,0.64 ± 0.05,0.55 ± 0.05,protein:0.91 ±0.03,0.78 ±0.06,0.70±0.07,0.55 ±0.06; P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions In normal human syncytiotrophoblast cells,FABP4 is a target factor of PPARγ.PPARγ regulated the expression of FABP4 mRNA and protein selectively.And the regulation will not be influenced by the other two PPAR subtypes.

ObjectiveTo explore adrenal insufficiency in the preterm infants who had critical lung diseases and the relationship between adrenal insufifciency and long-term or short-term prognosis.Methods The basal cortisol and ACTH of iffty preterm infants enrolled were tested. The peak cortisol at 30 minutes after low dose ACTH stimulation was tested. The adrenal insufifciency was deifned as the concentration of the basal cortisol less than 15 μg/dl or the increment of cortisol concentration after low dose ACTH stimulation less than 9 μg/dl. The pretern infants with adrenal insufifciency were the AI group and others were the adrenal normality, AN group.Results Thirty-one cases were adrenal insufifciency in 50 preterm infants with critical lung disease. The incidence was 62%. The concentrations of the basal and peak cortisol in AI group were lower than those in AN group (P<0.01). The increment of cortisol concentration after low dose ACTH stimulation had not signiifcant difference between two groups. The concentration of ACTH in AI group was lower than that in AN group (P<0.01). The mean arterial blood pressure in AI group was lower than that in AN group (P<0.01). The blood sugar, potassium and sodium had no signiifcant difference between two groups (P>0.05). There was no signiifcant difference in the mortality and the incidence of BPD between two groups (P>0.05).Conclusions The incidence of adrenal insufifciency was high in the preterm infants with critical lung diseases, which may be due to insufifcient production of endogenous ACTH. When the adrenal insufifciency was happened, the blood pressure is relatively low in preterm infants with critical lung diseases, but it was not related to the mortality and the incidence of BPD.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of utilizing pedicled sternocleidomastoid clavicular periosteocutaneous flap to reconstruct the laryngotracheal defect after tumor resection. METHOD: To review 6 cases of laryngotracheal defect resulting from resction of thyroid papillary carcinoma(4/6) or subglottic laryngeal carcinoma (2/6) (T1~2N1~2M0 , UICC,2002), laryngotracheal stenting was also employed in all cases. Half a year after surgery, the stoma was sutured if no local recurrence took place and safety was proved after tracheal tube had been obstructed for days. The follow-up time lasted from half a year to 3 years. RESULT: Four cases (4/6) were extubated successfully without event, one case could intermittently plug the tracheal tube. One patient couldn't breath with tracheal tube plugging. CONCLUSION To reconstruct the laryngotracheal defect with pedicled sternocleidomastoid clavicular.periosteocutaneous flap after tumor resection is feasible in selected cases and could get satisfactory clinical results either in respiration or phonation.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of resin infiltration in the treatment of post-orthodontic white spot lesions (WSLs)and compare it with microabrasion.Methods:1 0 subjects with 66 teeth with noncavitated and unrestored WSLs after multibracket treatment were recruited.A simple randomized,split-mouth and controlled design was used to allocate WSLs to the resin infiltration and micro-abrasion groups(n =33).The area of the WSLs were measured photographically by using image analysis software before treatment (T0),1 week(T2)and 3 months(T3)after treatment.Data were analyzed with multifactorial analysis of the variances with repeated measures at an a level of 5% and a power of 80%.Results:The area of the white spot lesions(R)decreased significantly in both groups(P <0.05).At T3 the success rate of resin infiltration group(88.68%)was significantly higher than that of microabrasion group (64.67%)(P <0.05).Conclusion:Resin infiltration is more effective than microabrasion in the treatment of post-orthodontic WSLs.

Objective To examine the mRNA and protein expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) and fatty acid binding protein-4 (FABP-4) in placenta, and to investigate their correlation with the prognosis of pre- eclampsia. Methods The data of 177 women who delivered from January 2013 to December 2015 in Chinese People′ s Liberation Army No.94 Hospital were collected. Among them, 60 cases were term pregnancy and not in labor (TN); 46 cases were term pregnancy with preeclampsia and not in labor (TPE); 42 cases were preterm pregnancy and not in labor (PN); 29 cases were preterm pregnancy with pre-eclampsia and not in labor (PPE). Real-time PCR and western blot were used to examine the PPAR and FABP-4 mRNA expression and protein expression in placentas. And linear correlation was used to analyze the relationship between PPAR and FABP-4 protein expression and the prognosis of pre-eclampsia. Results (1)Real-time PCR showed that:① PPAR-α, PPAR-β mRNA expression were not statistically different between placentas from TN and TPE (P>0.05), but PPAR-γ mRNA level in TPE (0.59±0.17) was significantly lower than that in TN (0.81±0.19, P<0.01). However, FABP-4 mRNA level in TPE (0.70±0.23) was significantly higher than that in TN (0.43±0.18, P<0.01). ②There were no statistical differences in PPAR-α, PPAR-β mRNA expression level between PN and PPE (P>0.05). However,PPAR-γ mRNA in the PPE group (0.33±0.14) was significantly lower than that in PN (0.52±0.16, P<0.01), and FABP-4 mRNA level in the PPE group (0.80±0.29) was significantly higher than in the PN group (0.63±0.22, P<0.01).(2)Western-blot showed the same tendency as the mRNA results. ①There were no statistical differences in the protein expression of PPAR-α, PPAR-β, not in term groups(TN and TPE), nor in premature groups (PN and PPE). PPAR-γ protein level in the TPE group (0.46 ± 0.17) was significantly lower than that in TN (0.65±0.20, P<0.01) and FABP-4 protein level in the TPE group (0.60± 0.19) was significantly higher than that in the TN group (0.50±0.21, P<0.05). ②The PPAR-γ protein level in the PPE group (0.30±0.16) was significantly lower than that in the PN group (0.61±0.16, P<0.05), while the FABP-4 protein expression in the PPE group (0.58±0.19) was significantly higher than that in the PN group (0.40±0.19, P<0.05).(3)Linear correlation showed that:①PPAR-γ protein expression correlated negatively with FABP-4 protein expresssion [P<0.01, R2=0.12 in the term groups(TN+TPE), R2=0.15 in the premature groups(PN+PPE)]. ②PPAR-γ protein expression correlated negatively with blood pressure recovery time, 24-hour urinary protein quantification and blood lipid recovery time (P<0.01, R2=0.37,0.35,0.18). FABP-4 protein expression correlated positively with lipid recovery time and blood cholesterol concentrations (P<0.01, R2=0.13,0.25). Conclusions The expression of PPAR-γ decreases in placentas from patients with pre-eclampsia, while the expression of FABP-4 increases. The expression of FABP-4 correlates negatively with the expression of PPAR-γ, and both are associated with the prognosis of pre-eclampsia.
