[Objective] This study was to investigate the effect of TMP on function of EPCs in normal or hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)inducing injury model cell culture,and to approach a therapy to coronary heart disease(CHD).[Method] Total mononuclear cells were isolated from the cord blood by ficoll density gradient centrifugation,cultured in vitro.After the cells cultured for 7 days,identified them by cellmarkers and the ability of intaking the ac-LDL,and made sure they were EPCs.To divide the cells into three groups,TMP(5,25,100,200mg),H2O2(500??)model and TMP together with H2O2,cultured for 24h and then detected the function and apoptosis of EPCs.[Result] Versus to control group,the TMP(5,25,100mg)groups had no important effect on the proliferation and adhesion of EPCs,but TMP(200mg)group had negative effect on EPCs.Versus to H2O2 model group,TMP(5,25,100mg)preincubated groups had important protective effect on EPCs in proliferation,adhesion and apoptosis.[Conclusion] TMP could protect EPCs from oxidative stress injury,but had little benefit to EPCs in normal incubation.

Objective To explore the influence of different hemodialysis ways on cognitive function in the patients with end-stage renal failure(ESRF) in maintenance dialysis.Methods Choosing 68 ESRF patients who needed maintenance dialysis were divided into high flux dialysis group and normal flux dialysis group,34 cases in each group.The P300 lantency period(LP) and amplitude(Amp),mini-mental status examination(MMSE) scale were applied to examine the patients in the two groups before treatment,1 month and 6 months after treatment,respectively.Results The P300 LP and Amp in high flux dialysis group and low flux dialysis group were(398.6?38.5)ms,(7.3?1.21)?V vs(410.3?49.7)ms,(6.9?1.03)?V before the treatment;and(336.8?32.1)ms,(8.2?1.15)?V vs(342.6?35.8)ms,(7.9?1.01) ?V 1 month after treatment.There were no significantly differences between the two groups.6 months after treatment,the P300 LP and Amp of high flux dialysis group and low flux dialysis group were(320.6?31.9)ms,(8.5?1.02) ?V vs(390.6?42.8)ms,(6.5?1.12)?V.There were significantly differences between the two groups(all P

Bis-(3′,5′) cyclic di-guanylate (c-di-GMP) is an almost ubiquitous intracellular second messenger in bacteria.Now it is known to regulate complex physiological processes, including mobility, adhesion, virulence and biofilm formation.The level of c-di-GMP is regulated by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) containing GGDEF domains and phosphodiesterases (PDEs) containing EAL or HD-GYP domains.Recent studies have demonstrated that HD-GYP domain protein is a novel phosphodiesterase, which is also involved in the regulation of c-di-GMP degradation.This review highlights recent advances in the structure and biochemical functions of HD-GYP domain proteins, which might help to further clarify the mechanism of c-di-GMP signal system.

To evaluate the efficacy of different courses of Narrowband Ultraviolet B phototherapy ( NB-UVB) in the treatment of vitiligo .50 vitiligo patients who had finished 3 courses of phototherapy and met the inclusion criteria were included in our study .Each course contained at least 30 times of phototherapy , and between two courses , there was a rest of 3~6 months .The repigmentation of each vitiligo lesion after every course of phototherapy was recorded .To the same lesion , the efficacy difference between the first course and the second course was not statisti -cally significant.But the efficacy of the first course was better than the third course (P<0.05),while the efficacy of the second course was also better than the third course ( P<0.05 ) .There was no significant difference among the three courses concerning the average single irradiation dose .In conclusion , when using NB-UVB in treating vitili-go, the efficacy of first course was equivalent to the second course , but it reduced in the third course .Whenever a plateform stage occurs , a rest of more than 3 months is long enough for the vitiligo lesion to recover initial light sen-sitivity.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of morphine by supersound atomizer for the management of postoperative pain in gynecology and obstetrics patients.Methods Eighty ASA class III patients scheduled for elective mixed gynecology and obstetrics surgeries were randomly and single-blindly located into 4 groups.Patients in each group received different analgesia therapy 30 rain before the end of the surgeries,as inhaling morphine 15 nag in group MI,inhaling morphine 20 nag in group M2,inhaling normal saline 10 ml in group N and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) in group PCA.Open-label rescue analgesia of intramuscular injection pethidine 50 mg or intravenous PCA was also available as needed.Pain scores were measured at baseline,15 min,30 min,1 h,2 h,3 h,4 h,6 h,8 h and 24 h after the extubation using visual analng score ( VAS ),vital signs,adverse events,and the uses of rescue analgesia were also recorded.Results The VAS of group M2 were significantly lower than that of group N and group M1.The VAS at 15 min,1 h,6 h,8 h,24 h of group M2 were significantly lower than that of group PCA(P ＜ 0.05 or ＜0.01 ).The VAS at 15 min,30 min,1 h,2 h,4 h,6 h of group M1 were significantly lower than that of group N (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01 ) postoperatively,which were significantly higher than that of group PCA except for 30 min.The morbidity of postoperative,nausea and vomiting in group M1 and group M2 were significantly higher than those in group N and group PCA.The rescue analgesia was more performed in group M 1 and group N than that in group M2 and group PCA.Conelusions Inhalation of morphine by supersound atomizer via intratracheal tube may produce safe and satisfying analgesic effect in postoperative pain model of gynecology and obstetrics patients.More studies are needed to determine what,if any,the optimum dose of morphine is for postoperative pain relieving and the possible mechanism.

Objective To assess the predictive value of neutrophil gelatinase associated protein lipocalin (uNGAL) in urine for detection of acute kidney injury(AKI) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods Patients with severe traumatic brain injury from the ICU were collected from Jan. 2011 to May. 2013 in our hospital. 43 cases that met the RIFLE criteria for diagnosis of AKI in the ICU within 7 days were selected as AKI group. Another 43 cases that were matched for age ,gender ,illness severity , surgery method with AKI cases ,selected as non‐AKI group. The levels of uNGAL and Scr were measured when the patients admit‐ted in the ICU with 15 min ,at 24 h ,48 h ,72 h. the sensitivity and specificity of uNGAL and Scr for diagnosis for AKI were evalua‐ted by ROC curve. Results The incidence of severe traumatic brain injury AKI was 42. 16% (43/102). The uNGAL levels in the AKI group were higher when the patient stayed in the ICU longer and no obvious in the non AKI group. When admitted to the ICU 24 h ,the level of uNGAL(720. 32 ± 684. 25)ng/mL in AKI group was significantly higher than that (421. 92 ± 351. 20)ng/mL in non AKI group. The difference was statistically significant (P< 0. 05). The levels of Scr between two groups were not statistically significant. The area under ROC curve of uNGAL and Scr were 0. 879 (95% CI :0. 807 - 0. 949) and 0. 612 (95% CI :0. 493 -0. 731). When the cutoff value of uNGAL was 180 ng/mL ,the sensitivity and specificity were 0. 890 and 0. 823 respectively. The sensitivity was superior to Scr. Conclusion uNGALis superior to Scr for early diagnosis of AKI in patients with severe traumatic brain injury and it could be used as a biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI.

Aim To establish a hepatic carcinoma cell line with stable voltage-gated chloride channel 3 ( ClC-3 ) gene silencing through the lentivirus-mediated short-hairpin RNA ( shRNA ) method and investigate the effects of gene silencing on invasion and migration. Methods Three lentiviral vectors coding shRNA tar-geting ClC-3 gene were constructed, the recombinant plasmids were packaged into mature lentivirus by 293FT cells, and then the lentiviruses were harvested, concentrated and titrated. MHCC97H cells were infec-ted with the recombinant lentiviruses and then were se-lected to obtain cell lines stably expressing ClC-3 shR-NA. The efficiency of ClC-3 mRNA and protein ex-pression interference were determined by real-time flu-orescence quantitative PCR and Western blot, respec-tively. The effects of ClC-3 gene interference on inva-sion and migration of MHCC97 H cells were performed by Transwell chamber assays with or without Matrigel and cell scratch assay. Results The recombinant lentiviral vectors were successfully constructed and four lentiviruses were acquired after packaged by 293 FT cells. One negative control cell line and three cell lines with ClC-3 gene interference ( MHCC97 H/shClC-3-1 , shClC-3-2 and shClC-3-3 ) were successfully construc-ted after MHCC97 H cells were infected with lentivirus-es. The expression level of ClC-3 mRNA and protein in three ClC-3-silenced cells were obviously lower than the negative control cells ( P <0. 01 ) , MHCC97 H/shClC-3-2 cells showed the greatest inhibition of ClC-3 mRNA and protein expressions. As compared with the negative control cells, the ClC-3 gene interference sig-nificantly decreased invasion and migration of MH-CC97 H cells in vitro ( P <0. 01 ) . Conclusion The hepatic carcinoma cell lines with stable ClC-3 gene si-lencing were successfully established and the ClC-3 gene interference could significantly inhibit invasion and migration of MHCC97H cells.

Objective To investigate the renal function of the patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and its effect on patients' outcome.Methods The renal function of 680 patients with AMI,received the conventional therapies, such as thrmbolysis, antiplatelet and antianginal therapies were investigated. According to it, 228 patients with renal dysfunction[GFR ＜90ml · min-1 · ( 1.73m2 ) -1]were divided into observation group,while the others[GFR≥90ml · min-1 · (1.73m2) -1]were divided into control group. To analyse their clinical characteristics、the inhospital mortality、one year mortality and the heart ocurrence rate in one year. Results Compared with the patients in the control group,the patients in the observation group were older、more likely to be women、and more likely to have hypertension、diabetes mellitus、coronary heart disease. The inhospital and one year mortality were higher ( 17. 8％ vs 9.74％ ,P ＜0. 01 ;25.00％ vs 14. 44％ ,P ＜0. 01 ) and the heart ocurrence rate was higher(57. 14％ vs38. 96％ ,P ＜ 0. 01 ) in one year in the observation group than that in the control group. ConclosionThe AMI patients with renal dysfunction were more likely to have concomitant diseases, worse ill condition and outcome. Renal dysfunction was an independent risk factor for the outcome in the patients with AMI.

Objective To construct a recombinant plasmid DNA containing herpes simplex virus type 1(HSV-1) glycoprotein D (gD) gene.Methods The HSV-1 gD gene was obtained by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and inserted into TA cloning vector pGEM-T, then cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1 to generate pLy-D. The recombinant plasmid pLy-D, which was confirmed by partial sequencing and restriction endonuclease analysis, was transfected into Cos-7 cells and used to inoculate ICR mice via muscular injection. Immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) were employed to test the gD expression in transfected cells and the specific anti-HSV-1 antibody in the serum of immunized mice, respectively.Results The gD eukaryotic expression plasmid pLy-D was constructed. Using the immunohistochemistry technique, the gD expression in pLy-D-transfected cells was detected. The ELISA demonstrated that specific anti-HSV-1 antibody could be induced in immunized mice after three times injection.Conclusions We constructed HSV-1 gD eukaryotic expression plasmid pLy-D which could express gD protein in transfected cells and could induce humoral immune response in mice. This observation will be helpful in designing HSV prophylactic vaccine.
