Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2005;0(07):-
Objective To study the effect of insulin resistance on the development of coronary artery disease ( CAD). Methods In total, 204 nondiabetic inpatients diagnosed by elective coronary angiography were selected in the study and divided into CAD and control groups. Relationship between insulin resistance assessed by homeostasis model ( HOMA-IR) and fasting serum level of insulin and occurrence of CAD and the extent of stenosis of coronary arteries was analyzed. Results IR and serum level of insulin were significantly higher in CAD group than those in control group ( P

Objective:To display human CD137 extra-cellular domain on phage using phage display technique and detect its antigenicity and bioactivity.Methods:CD137 extra-cellular gene was amplified from CIS plasmid using PCR and then clone it into pComb3HSS.The recombinant pComb3H-CD137 was transfected into competent bacteria XL1-Blue, then the transfected bacteria was co-infected with help phage VCSM13 and CD137 extra-cellular domain was displayed on the phage surface. The antigenicity and bioactivity of CD137 displayed on phage was detected by ELISA and inhibition assay of lymphocyte proliferation(MTT).Results:CD137 PCR products was 525 bp, the recombined plasmid was named pComb3H-CD137, CD137 was displayed on phage. ELISA detection showed that phage displayed CD137 possesses antigenicity of human CD137. MTT inhibition assay showed that lymphocytes proliferation stimulated by PHA and CD137 could be inhibited by phage displayed CD137, indicating that it has bioactivity of nature CD137.Conclusion:The studies demonstrate that phage display system can display human CD137 extra-cellular domain homodimer with antigenicity and bioactivity.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical characteristics and the relationship between rational therapy and prognosis in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).MethodsClinical data of 23 patients pathologically confirmed as PCNSL and treated in our hospital from January 2005 to December 2007 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.SPSS 13.0 statistical analysis software was used to analyze the correlation between therapy,clinical characteristics and prognosis.Among the 23 patient,10 were male and 13 were female,with a median age of 50 (2-75) years old.Eighteen patients were undertaken lumbar puncture,and tumor cells in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) was found in 4 patients.Tumorectomy was performed in 8 patient,while 15 patients biopsy.Among them,4 accepted whole brain irradiation,6 accepted associated chemotherapy based on a high-dose of methotrexate (MTX)and 13 accepted radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy.Results Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that in this serial patients,the median survival time was 45.0 months and the 3-year survival rate was 56.5%.Log-Rank test revealed that the whole survival time and the non-progression survival time of radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy (43.8 and 30.0 months,respectively) and high-dose MTX chemotherapy ( 39.7 and 29.7 months,respectively )were much longer than those of radiotherapy alone (25.7 and 19.8 months,respectively,all P < 0.05 ).Log-Rank test showed no significant difference between high-dose MTX chemotherapy alone and radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy (P >0.05 ),but the whole survival time was much shorter in high-dose MTX chemotherapy ( P < 0.05 ).ConclusionsThe detection of tumor cells in CSF can confirm the diagnosis,but pathological biopsy is the gold standard.The efficacy of associated chemotherapy based on a high-dose of MTX combined with radiotherapy is much better than radiotherapy or chemotherapy alone.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a kind of chronic, progressive, multiple, invasive autoimmune disease with two chief cclinical manifestations arthrosynovitis and ex-arthrosis, easy to occur in middle-aged women, also occur in children and the elderly, is characterized by progressive and break out repeatedly. RA pathogenesis is complex, there is no special treatment, used in treatment of R drug varied, new drugs and new therapies also emerge in endlessly, main including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), slow action anti-rheumatism medicine (SAARDs), glucocorticoids (GCs), biological agent, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine preparations, domestic market for rheumatoid main drug treatment are NSAIDs, SAARDs, GCs, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medi- cine preparations for the treatment of RA have its unique advantages, show the characteristics of overall adjustment, multi-level and multiple targets, and also can alleviate and against side effects of western medicine. In recent years, more and more get people's atten- tion. This paper reviewed the research progress and treatment features of commonly used therapeutic agents for the treatment of RA in recent years, which provides reference and basis for future medicine anti-RA.

Objective To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) gene-rs1007888 and the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods A total of 120 GDM pregnant women (GDM group) and 165 healthy pregnant women (control group) from Affiliated Hospital of Medical College,Qingdao University were recruited from June 2011 to July 2012.Their age,gestational week,height and weight were recorded.The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG) and fasting insulin (FIN) were determined.Body mass index (BMI),the hemeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and hemeostasis model assessment-β cell function (HOMA-β) were calculated.DNA was extracted from fasting blood samples.SNP of MIFrs1007888G/A was determined by DNA sequencing.The FBG,FIN,HOMA-IR and HOMA-β were compared between GDM group and the control group.They were also compared among pregnancies withdifferent genotypes.Results (1) GDM group had higher FBG,FIN and HOMA-IR levels,but lower HOMA-β than the control group (all P < 0.05).(2) MIF-rs1007888 SNP genotype frequencies of GG,GA and AA were 37.5%,45.8% and 16.7%,and the allelic frequencies of G and A were 60.4%,39.6% in GDM group; However,in the control group,the frequencies of GG,GA and AA were 26.1%,54.5% and 19.4%,and the allelic frequencies of G and A were 53.3%,46.7%,respectively.The distributions of MIF genotypes in GDM patients were significantly different from the healthy subjects (P < 0.05).No significant difference of MIF-rs1007888 allele distributions was observed between GDM group and the control group (P >0.05).(3) The FBG,FIN and HOMA-IR in pregnant women with GG genotype were statistically higher than those with GA or AA genotypes,while HOMA-β was lower in women with GG genotype (all P <0.05).Conclusions The SNP of MIF rs-1007888 was related to the insulin resistance and pancreatic β cell function of pregnant women.GG genotype of MIF-rsl007888 might be a genetic susceptible factor in the pathogenesis of GDM.
