BACKGROUND:No uniform standard for constructing the animal model of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia injury results in the incomparability among research results and impedes the development of sport medicine especial y in the cardiovascular field;thereby, it is imperative to reach an agreement in constructing criteria.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the method of establishing the rat model of myocardial ischemia induced by running.
METHODS:Total y 96 female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into rest control group, isoprenaline group and 10 exercise groups (1-and 3-time moderate-intensity exercise groups, 1-, 2-and 3-week moderate-intensity exercise groups, 1-and 3-time high-intensity exercise groups, 1-, 2-and 3-week high-intensity exercise groups). After exhaustive exercise, myocardium was col ected for morphological observation by hematoxylin-eosin staining, serum levels of myocardial enzymes and cardiac troponin I were detected, and the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by real-time PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that the damage degree was more severe with the time of exercise, and the high-intensity exercise groups were more severe than those in the moderate-intensity exercise groups. (2) The activity of serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase was significantly increased after 1-week moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise (P<0.05 or P<0.01). From the beginning of the 3-time high-intensity exhaustive exercise, the activity of glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase was significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (3) Cardiac troponin I content change trend was basical y the same as glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase changes, but cardiac troponin I content in the moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise groups was significantly higher than that in the rest control group until 2 weeks. The Bcl-2/Bax ratios in al exercise groups were significantly lower than that in the rest control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01);those in the 1-and 3-time high-intensity exercise groups were significantly higher than in the isoprenaline group (P<0.05 or P<0.01);and those in moderate-intensity groups were higher than in the isoprenaline group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (4) In conclusion, 2-week high-intensity and 3-week moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise can induce myocardial ischemia injury, and pathological analysis, serum levels of myocardial enzymes and cardiac troponin I can be used as the evaluation indexes, while apoptosis regulation genes just as the reference index.

The error of Truebeam imaging system center and couch shift can be tested on a monthly base.

Oligosaccharides are one of the essential physiological constituents of glycoproteins and glycolipids on mammalian cell surfaces and microbial metabolites. They have considerable potential as therapeutics but are only now slowly assuming this important role. One of the reasons for their slow development has been the considerable difficulty in synthesizing oligosaccharides on the scale necessary for their clinical evaluation. Classical chemical and enzymatic methods both have limitations in synthesizing large-scale oligosaccharides. In recent years, the rapid progress on molecular biotechnology has promoted the development of retaining glycosidases in oligosaccharides synthesis, which led to the production of a novel class of enzymatic activities termed the glycosynthases. These new enzymes are retaining glycosidase mutants in which the catalytic nucleophile has been converted to a non-nucleophilic residue,synthesizing oligosaccharides in high yields ( the highest yields reach 99%) without any hydrolysis. Furthermore thioglycoligases and thioglycosynthases have been developed subsequently in the past three years. Glycosynthases can be screened in high-throughput assay by the two-plasmid system and the yeast three-hybid system respectively. Their activity can be significantly enhanced by substituting alternative residues for nucleophile, additional random mutations and optimizing reaction conditions. Their regioselectivity can be modified through changes in receptors.

Objective To observe the effect of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor gamma(PPAR-?)on phenotypic transforming of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC)in hypertension.Methods Spontaneous hypertension rats(SHR)and WKY rats both aged 4 months were included.SHR rats as well as WKY rats were divided to be fed with normal chow,and chow added with rosiglitazone(10 mg?kg-1?d-1)for 16 weeks.VSMC were isolated from SHR rats and WKY rats and cultured by patch-attaching method,then respectively divided into 3 groups after treated with genetic recombination technology:normal VSMC,PPAR? overexpressed VSMC and PPAR? silenced VSMC.Expressions of OPN and ?-SMA,which respectively represent the undifferentiated and differentiated VSMC,were detected by Western blotting.Cell proliferation was determined by detecting DNA synthesis and cell counting.The changes of arteries were evaluated pathologically.Results Rosiglitazone decreased blood pressure and ameliorated vascular remodeling of aorta in SHR rats.Aorta of SHR showed an upregulation of OPN and downregulation of ?-SMA,which could be inhibited by rosiglitazone.VSMC from SHR rats showed an upregulation of OPN and downregulation of ?-SMA,and increased cell proliferation.These changes were all inhibited by rosiglitazone.In the cells that overexpressed PPAR?,the cell proliferation rate was lower,and the expressions of OPN and ?-SMA were depressed,compared with the corresponding control cells.Conclusion PPAR-? could inhibit the phenotypic transforming of VSMC,and this might be responsible for the amelioration of vascular remodeling in hypertension.

Objective To evaluate the safety, feasibility and other potential advantages of laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) compared to conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) for tubal pregnancy. Methods We manually searched Pubmed, the Cochrane Library, web of science, CNKI and China Biology Medicine for the relevant references about comparison of single-port laparoscopic salpingectomy with multi-port laparoscopic salpingectomy in the treatment of tubal pregnancy. The quality of the studies was evaluated, then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. Result Eventually, 2 RCTS and 14 retrospective studies including a total of 1541 cases were identi昀ed. The results of the meta-analysis for LESS versus CLS were as follows: a longer operative time [WMD=8.54, 95%CI (2.43, 14.64), P = 0.006], no significant differences in terms of total complications [OR= 0.68, 95%CI (0.27,1.71), P = 0.410]/operative blood loss [WMD = -0.01, 95%CI (-2.51,2.48), P = 0.990]/gastrointestinal function recovery time [WMD = -0.45, 95%CI (-1.72,0.82), P = 0.490], but shorter hospital stay [WMD=-0.40, 95% (-0.75, -0.06), P = 0.020], less postoperative analgesic treatment [OR= 0.38, 95%CI (0.22,0.67), P = 0.000]. Conclusions LESS for surgical treatment of tubal pregnancy is safe and feasible with shorter hospitalstay, less postoperative pain. LESS may therefore be a feasible alternative of CLS in the surgical approach of tubal pregnancy.

Inclusion method should be saturated water solution method, and the inclusion process of volatile oil as feed and beta-cyclodextrin inclusion ratio was 1:12; the temperature was 40 ℃; inclusion time was 3.5 h. By means of TLC, UV and IR spectra, the formation of the inclusion compound of volatile oil in clear solution particles was preliminarily proved. Conclusion The optimum extraction and inclusion process of volatile oil from Qingjie Granules are stable and feasible, which can be used in industrial production.

Objective To analyze the epidemiologic data of patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning, and to improve the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of food borne botulism.Methods A retrospective study was conducted. Fifty-three patients withClostridium botulinum food poisoning admitted to Chinese PLA Center of Poisoning and Treatment from January 2009 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into mild, moderate, and severe groups according to the severity of disease. The clinical data including medical history, epidemiology data, routine blood test and blood biochemistry at hospital admission, the vital signs and arterial blood gas analysis before and after treatment, as well as the occurrence frequency of symptom and sign on set were collected.Results Fifty-three patients with food borne botulism were enrolled, with 33 patients in mild group, 13 in moderate group, and 7 in severe group. Most of the patients were female, the age distribution was in large span, the outbreak of disease was in groups mainly with the family, and patients were mainly located in Hebei Province, Beijing and Henan Province. The outbreaks were mainly happened in Spring and Summer, and homemade fermentation products were still the first cause of poisoning with the average latent period of (51.01±4.78) hours. The majority of patients with botulism were in mild resulted from the type A toxin. With the aggravation of disease, hospitalization time was gradually increased, white blood cell (WBC) and neutrophils (NEUT) at hospitalization admission, and respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) before the treatment were shown in obviously rising trend, albumin (ALB) at hospitalization admission and pH, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) before treatment were in decline. The parameters in severe group were most severe, and had significant differences as compared with those of mild group [hospitalization time (days): 72.57±39.52 vs. 6.61±3.72, WBC (×109/L): 13.01±6.44 vs. 6.85±2.07, NEUT: 0.85±0.07 vs.0.63±0.14, RR (bpm): 32.14±4.33 vs. 15.18±1.70, HR (bpm): 132.29±5.19 vs. 75.54±8.24, FiO2: 0.32±0.05 vs. 0.21±0.00, ALB (g/L): 38.57±4.65 vs. 42.09±4.57, pH: 7.08±0.10 vs. 7.38±0.07, PaO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 75.16±5.24 vs. 98.39±1.50, SaO2: 0.78±0.06 vs. 0.97±0.02, allP < 0.05]. The symptom and sign on set of 53 patients with food borne botulism was dizziness, followed by fatigue, blurred vision, nausea, and other symptoms and signs were lower than 50%, and the occurrence of dizziness with rank one happen rate was significantly higher than blurred vision and nausea (χ2 values were 7.209 and 10.502 respectively, andP values were 0.007 and 0.004 respectively). After the on time prescription of botulinum antitoxins treatment, the clinical symptoms of patients could be relived quickly. All the patients were discharged without deaths.Conclusion In order to improve the recovery of the food borne botulism poisoning patients, adequate antitoxin and the related organ supports should be prescribed on time.

Objective To explore the difference involved in the activation of inflammation pathway and the plasma level of inflammatory factors in the subjects with different sorts of insulin sensitivity. Methods The study was carried out in 38 women, consisting of obesity (n = 22 ) and control (n = 16 ) groups according to body mass index. The insulin sensitivity was assessed by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMAIR). Plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (II-6) and IL-1β were determined by enzyme immunoassay. Western blot analysis was used to examine total protein expression and phosphorylation levels of IκB kinase (IKK) ,inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB ( IκB ) in peripheral blood leukcocytes. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA)was used to detect the binding activity of NFκB. Results The levels of fasting plasma insulin[62.2 ( 20.0-127. 0) pmol/L vs 19. 15 ( 14. 2-47. 8 ) pmol/L, P<0. 01], HOMA-IR[2. 32 ( 0. 76-5.49 ) vs 0.70(0.53-1.7),P<0.0l], HbA1 C[(5.42±0. 45 ) % vs ( 5.08 ±0. 38) %, P<0. 05], triglyceride[( 1.75 ±0. 68 vs 1.22 ±0. 58 )mmol/L, P<0. 05], plasma IL-6[3. 15 (0. 03-22. 2) pg/ml vs 1.26 (0. 74-6.06 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01], and IL-1 β[6. 53 ( 0. 84-36 ) pg/ml vs 3. 16( 1.48-8. 86 ) pg/ml, P<0. 01]in obesity group were significantly higher than those in control group. Compared with control group, the levels of IKKo, IKKβ expression and IκBα serine phosphorylation in obesity group were markedly increased, while the expression of IκBα was significantly reduced. Accompanied with the degradation of IκBα protein, the binding activity of NFκB in obesity group was significantly increased. Conclusions The plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-1β were significantly raised in obesity group. The activation of IKK-IκB-NFκB pathway is closely associated with the genesis and development of insulin resistance in obese subjects.

Objective To evaluate the association between isotretinoin pharmacokinetic parameters and CYP2B6 (cytochrome p-450) gene polymorphisms. Methods Blood samples were collected at different time points from 21 healthy male volunteers who received a single 40-rng oral dose of isotretinoin. High performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used for the quantification of isotretinoin in plasma samples which were standardized by dosage and body weight. PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis were performed to detect the G516T mutation in exon 4 as well as A785G mutation in exon 5 of CYP2B6 gene in these subjects. Results There was an obvious genetic linkage imbalance in exon 4 and 5 of CYP2B6 gene among these volunteers. In the case of CYP2B6*4 allele,3 (14.29%) people were CYP2B6*4/*4 homozygotes, 6 (28.57%) CYP2B6*1/*4 heterozygotes, and 12 (57.14%) CYP2B6*1/*1 wild-type homogygotes, while as far as CYP2B6*6 allele was concerned, 3 (14.29%)people were CYP2B6*6/*6 homozygotes, 5 (23.81%) CYP2B6*1/*6 heterozygotes, and 13 (61.90%)CYP2B6*1/*1 wild-type homozygotes. The reaction half-time (t1/2) and mean residence time (MRT) of isotretinoin were longer in volunteers carrying wild-type CYP2B6*4 allele than those of CYP2B6*4/*4 homozygotes (both P ＜ 0.05 ), while no significant difference was observed in maximum concentration (Cmax), peak time (Tmax) or area under the plasma concentration time (AUC) between the two groups of volunteers. There was no statistical difference in any of the above parameters between subjects carrying wild type CYP2B6*6 allele and those of CYP2B6 *6/*6 homozygotes (all P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusions The mutation of CYP2B6*4 allele ia relevant to the metabolism of isotretinoin, which seems to be more rapid in CYP2B6*4/*4 homozygotes.
