Objective To explore the impact of recombinant human hepatocyte growth factor (rhHGF) in Celsior (CS) solution on the expression of INF-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 in a rat liver transplan-tation model. Methods After flushed with CS solution with addition of rhHGF (experimental group) or saline (control group), NHBD livers were stored at 4℃; for 16 h.then they were transplanted using the two-cuff technique with arterial reconstruction. The serum levels of INF-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 at lh after reperfusion were detected using ELISA. The INF-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA in the corresponding liver tissue were determined by RT-PCR. The 7-day survival rate was calculated and the histopatho-logical examination results were analyzed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Results Compared with the control group, the experimental group showed lower INF-γ level and higher IL-4 and IL-10 levels in serum at 1 h after reperfusion (P<0. 05). The level of INF-γ mRNA in liver tissue was significant decreased at 1 h after reperfusion (P<0. 05) , and the level of IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA was significantly increased in the experimental group (P<0. 05). In experimental group, recipients got a better survival rate and histopathological examination showed a well-preserved hepatic architecture without hepatocyte necrosis, milder sinusoidal and portal congestion. Conclusion Adding exogenous rhHGF in CS solu-tion can protect NHBD livers from ischemia-reperfusion injury and prolong the survival in rats, which might be due to down-regulation of TNF-γ and up-regulation of IL-4 and IL-10.
4. Preparation and characterization of terminal modified hyaluronic acid copolymer micelles
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2015;50(22):1973-1978
OBJECTIVE: To synthesize hyaluronic acid-octadecene (HOY) copolymers by terminal thiolation modification of hyaluronic acid (HA), prepare doxorubicin-loaded micelles and investigate its pharmaceutical characteristics. METHODS: HOY copolymers were synthesized through Michael addition reaction. The doxorubicin-loaded copolymer micelles were prepared with ultrasonic method, then the particle size, Zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, drug loading efficiency and in vitro release behavior were studied. RESULTS: HOY copolymers were synthesized successfully. The particle size and Zeta potential of the drug-loaded micelles were (237.2±2.7) nm and (-22.37±0.38) mV, and the encapsulation efficiency and drug loading rate were (89.8±0.011)% and (5.4±0.007)%, respectively. Moreover, the accumulative release of doxorubicin in vitro was about 70% in 48 h, indicating that the drug was released slowly from the micelles. CONCLUSION: This study develops a new micellar system based on terminal modified HA, and provides a reference for the study of HA nanocarrier.

The present study aimed to investigate the impact of hypothyroidism on left ventricular systolic function using real-time three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (RT3D-STI). Thirty hypothyroidism patients and forty healthy volunteers were recruited and received RT3DSTI measurement of global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), global radial strain (GRS), and global area strain (GAS). A comparison of differences between the hypothyroidism patients and those in the healthy group was carried out and we obtained the results as followings. The values of GLS were (-18.93 +/- 3.89) vs. (-21.44 +/- 1.99), with P < 0.01, GRS were (51.13 +/- 11.95) vs. (56.10 +/- 5.76), with P < 0.0; and GAS were (-31.63 +/- 5.38) vs. (-34.40 +/- 2.32), with P < 0.01, i.e. they were lower in hypothyroidism group than those in the health group. While GCS were (-17.75 +/- 1.92) vs. 17.03 +/- 3.45), with P > 0.05, which were not significantly different between the two groups. In linear regres sion, GLS showed significant correlation with both TSH (b = -0.69, P < 0.01) and FT3 (b = 0.71, P < 0.01). Meanwhile, the GRS (b = 2.98, P < 0.05) and GAS (b = 3.11, P < 0.05) linearly correlated with FT3 level. In conclusion, the present study shows that the global longitudinal and radial moves of left ventricular are weaker in patients with hypothyroidism than healthy controls. And the impairment of left ventricular function would aggravate as FSH rises or FT3 declines.

OBJECTIVETo study the protective effect of rosmarinic acid (Ros A) on the primary cardiomyocyte hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury.
METHODPrimary cardiomyocytes of rats were cultured in vitro to establish the H/R injury of cardiomyocytes and observe the changes in the cell viability and LDH leakage. The changes in ATP content and ROS in cardiomyocytes were measured by using chemiluminescence and fluorescent probe technique. The effects of rosmarinic acid on the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, cleaved-caspase 3, Akt and p-Akt protein expression were further detected by flow cytometry and western blot analysis.
RESULTAccording to the experimental results, Ros A at doses of 25, 50, 100 mg x L(-1) could inhibit the decrease in H/R-induced cell viability, LDH leakage and excessive ROS generation, and maintain the ATP level in cells. Ros A at doses of 50, 100 mg x L(-1) could remarkably inhibit the H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and down-regulate the expression of cleaved caspase-3. Moreover, Ros A at doses of 100 mg x L(-1) could significantly up-regulate the expression of p-Akt.
CONCLUSIONRos A has the significant effect in resisting the cardiomyocyte H/R injury, improve cardiomyocyte energy metabolism and reduce cell apoptosis, which is related to the activation of Akt pathway.

To investigate the effect of Carbomer eye gel and recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) on dry eye after cataract surgery in diabetics.
●METHODS: A total of 160 patients ( 160 eyes ) with diabetes undergone phacoemulsification with a diagnosis of dry eyes were randomized divided into two groups, treatment group (80 cases, 80 eyes) and control group (80 cases, 80 eyes). ln treatment group, the patients were treated by Carbomer eye gel and rhEGF. ln control group, the patients were treated by Carbomer eye gel. The subjective dry eye symptoms, tear break - up time (BUT), Schirmer l test ( S Ⅰ t) and cornea fluorescein staining ( FL) were observed before treatment, 1, 4wk after treatment.
●RESULTS: There was no significant difference between groups before treatment (P> 0. 05). After treatment at 1, 4wk, the subjective dry eye symptoms and the results of three examination ( BUT, S Ⅰ t and FL) in two groups better than those before treatment ( P< 0. 01). And there was significant difference between experimental group and control group (P<0. 05; P<0. 01), the results of BUT, Slt and FL were improved in treatment group better than that in control group (P<0. 01). All patients showed good tolerance to Carbomer eye gel and recombinant human epidermal growth factor.
●CONCLUSlON: Carbomer eye gel can relieve the dry eye symptoms of diabetes after phacoemulsification effectively, and it can be more effective to combine Carbomer eye gel with rhEGF at early stage after phacoemulsification.

Objective To study the relationships among resilience, self-awareness, personality, stress level and mental health in the warship soldiers. Methods Resilience Scale for Adults ( RSA), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire ( EPQ), Self Acceptance Questionnaire( SAQ), General Self-Efficacy Scale( GSES), Wallance Self Concept Scale (WSCS), Psychological Stress Self-evaluation Test (PSET) and Symptom Checklist (SCL-90)were used to survey 1451 warship soldiers. Results ① 2.5% of the warship soldiers reported obvious psychological stress. Mental health of warship soldiers was worse than the norm of China population, except for obsessivecompulsive and interpersonal sensitivity factor. While the scores of other factors were significantly higher than the norm of Chinese soldiers(P<0.01). ②The total scores of SCL-90, psychological stress and resilience, internal/external had negative correlation with self-awareness, and positive correlation with neuroticism. Compared to the SCL-90-negative group,SCL-90-positive soldiers (SCL-90 total score > 160) had higher scores of nervousness and PSET and lower scores of RSA, internal/external and self-awareness (P < 0.01 ). ③Regression analysis showed that stress levels, emotional stability,self-awareness and resilience were able to predict 35.1% of mental health in warship soldiers. Mental health, emotional stability, internal/external and resilience were able to predict 33.2%of individual's stress level. Conclusion To some extent, warship soldiers have psychological stress and mental health problems. Resilience, personality, self-awareness are important factors affecting psychological stress and mental health.
