Objective To evaluate the impact of low dietary glycemic index on the risk of coronaryheart disease (CHD).Methods We searched the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,JBI Database of Systematic Reviews,MEDLINE,EMbase,CBMdisk,and CNKI to collect cohort studies from 2000 to 2011.The quality of cohort studies was critically appraised and data were extracted by 4 reviewers independently.Meta-analysis were conducted for the eligible cohort studies using RevMan 5.0.Results Five cohort studies were included,and 128 911 samples were researched.The result of meta analysis indicated that low dietary glycemic index was a protective factor of CHD,RR value was 1.25,95％ CI was (1.13,2.15).Further more,the result was only effective to female,RR value was 1.35,95％ CI was (1.16,1.57),but not to male,RR value was 0.96,95％CI was (0.76,1.31).Conclusions Low dietary glycemic index can decrease the risk of CHD,but it is still to be proved whether it is suitable to male.

Objective To investigate changes in the expression of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE) and the oxidative DNA damage marker 8 OHdG in distant hippocampus regions of the rat brain after focal cerebral ischemia of the middle cerebral artery.Methods SD rats were divided into the sham surgery group and the pMCAO group (induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion).Pathological changes in brain tissues were examined at 2 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h.The expression of APE and 8-OHdG was measured by immunohistochemical staining methods.TUNEL staining was performed to detect apoptosis.Results Reduction of APE expression in the CA1 region of the hippocampus on the ischemia side appeared at 2 h in the pMCAO group and continued as ischemia persisted (F=11.91,P＜0.05).The expression of 8OHdG and TUNEL immunoreactivity in the CA1 region of the hippocampus on the ischemia side were first observed at 6h in the pMCAO group and intensified during the remainder of induced ischemia (F=9.23 and 10.46 respectively,P＜0.05 for both).Compared with the sham group,8-OHdG expression and TUNEL immunoreactivity in the pMCAO group were at nearly the same levels from 24 h to 72h.Conclusions Oxidative DNA damage occurs in hippocampus regions of the rat brain after experimentally induced focal cerebral ischemia of the middle cerebral artery.APE expression declines in regions distant from focal cerebral ischemia.Development and accumulation of oxidative DNA damage can induce apoptosis in certain brain regions.

Objective Pulmonary fibrosis ( PF) is a group of pulmonary interstitial pathological changes caused by various factors, and its pathogenesis is not yet fully elucidated .This article discussed the effect of lycium barbarum polysaccharide ( LBP) on ble-omycin-induced PF in mice and its action mechanisms . Methods The C57/BL6 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups:sham-opera-tion, PF model, dexamethasone ( DM), high-dose LBP, medium-dose LBP, and low-dose LBP.The mice in the sham-operation group were injected into the trachea with isotonic saline and those in the oth-er groups with 5 bleomycin at mg/kg for establishing the PF model . Two days after modeling , the mice in the DM and high-, medium-,and low-dose LBP groups were treated with DM at 5 mg/kg and LBP at 0.8, 0.4, and 0.2 g/kg, while those in the sham-operation and PF model groups with the same volume of isotonic saline , respectively , qd, for 4 consecutive weeks .Then, the pathological chan-ges of the lung tissue were observed and the hydroxyproline ( HYP) content in the lung tissue was detected for all the animals .RT-PCR was used to determine the relative expressions of the PF-related COL1A1 and α-SMA genes. Results Compared with the PF mod-els, the the high-, medium-, and low-dose LBP groups showed significant increased body weight after 4 weeks of medication ([14.29 ±0.38] vs [16.12 ±0.37], [15.58 ±0.25] and [15.07 ±0.21] g, P<0.01), the high-and medium-dose groups ex-hibited remarkably decreased lung indexes ([0.887 ±0.13] vs [0.847 ±0.22] and [0.859 ±0.18]%, P<0.05), and the high-dose group presented markedly reduced alveolitis score (3.40 ±0.23 vs 3.09 ±0.22, P<0.05), PF score (3.57 ±0.27 vs 3.07 ± 0.31, P<0.01) and HYP content ([0.831 ±0.05] vs [0.786 ±0.07] μg/mg wet weight, P<0.05).In comparison with the mod-el group, the DM, high-dose LBP and medium-dose LBP groups showed significantly decreased gene expressions of COL 1A1 (1.53 ± 0.13 vs 1.26 ±0.10 and 0.98 ±0.17, P<0.05) and α-SMA (5.67 ±0.47 vs 4.19 ±0.28 and 2.29 ±0.31, P<0.05). Conclusion LBP can suppress the progression of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis by inhibiting the gene expressions of COL 1A1 andα-SMA and decreasing the HYP content in the lung tissue .

Objective To investigate the temporal expression patterns of the related transcription factors and target genes in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy,and provide valuable clues for further researches on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.Methods Isoproterenol (ISO) was used to induce ventricular myocytes hypertrophy in neonatal mice.The survival rate of cardiomyocyte was detected by CCK-8,and the average diameters and surface areas of cells were measured by computer photograph analysis system.The mRNA and protein expression levels of related genes were respectively measured by RT-PCR and Western blotting.Results The model of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy stimulated by ISO was constructed successfully.The expression levels of GATA4,MEF2C,GATA5,BNP and ANP increased 24 hours after ISO treatment,the expression levels of P300,α-MHC and TBX5 increased 12 hours after ISO treatment,and of SRF and β-MHC mRNA increased 6 hours after ISO treatment (P＜0.05).The expression levels of GATA4,α-MHC,β-MHC,SRF and P300 mRNA increased firstly,and then decreased in cardiomyocytes induced by ISO.The expression levels of GATA4,SRF,α-MHC,β-MHC and P300 mRNA were still higher than normal (P＜0.05),but of MEF2C decreased to normal (P＞0.0S) 72 hours after ISO treatment.The expression levels continuously elevated of GATA5,TBX5,ANP and BNP mRNA than that of controls (P＜0.05),while no fluctuation was found in NKX2.5 mRNA expression (P＞0.05).The expression of GATA4 protein increased,while of HEY2 protein decreased 48 hours after ISO treatment (P＜0.05).Conclusions In hypertrophic cardiomyocytes,the expression pattern of MEF2C is similar to,but the patterns of GATA5,GATA4,TBX5 and SRF are different with that in the development of heart,implying these genes are important during the process from compensatory stage to decompensation stage.The expression patterns of GATA4,MEF2C and SRF are similar to that of acetylase P300,implying the temporal expressions could be regulated by P300 in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Objective To investigate that ox-LDL inhibits endothelial differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in rats and its underlying mechanism .Methods Cultured MSCs were divided into four groups:blank groups , ox-LDL groups ( 5 μg/mL ox-LDL ) , ox-LDL +NAC groups ( 5 μg/mL ox-LDL and pre-treated NAC), and negative LDL groups (5 μg/mL nLDL).Cell morphology, endothelial marker and differentiation effi-ciency as well as signal of oxidative and pathway protein were detected after induction by Western blot , real-time PCR.Results MSCs can differentiate into endothelial cells with the expression of endothelial marker vWF , Flk-1 and CD31 at the mRNA and protein level , vascular morphology , ox-LDL obvious inhibited endothelial differentia-tion of MSCs ( P<0.05 ) , but NAC can reverse the inhibition , the amount of ROS in ox-LDL groups was higher than that in ox-LDL+NAC groups ( P <0.05 ) , The expression of phosphorylated Akt decreased distinctly after treatment with ox-LDL( P<0.05 ) , NAC can stimulated its expression close to normal .Conclusions ox-LDL can inhibit endothelial differentiation of MSCs via ROS , NAC in this procese shows inhibition to effect of ox-LDL and Akt signaling also played a critical role .

Objective To investigate the loss of heterozygosity at 17 microsatellites of 10 chromosome arms in 68 resected specimens of esophageal cancer, and the relationship to the clinicopathological phenotypes of patients. Methods 68 tumor specimens (20 well-differentiated squamous carcinomas, 30 moderately differentiated carcinomas and 18 poorly differentiated carcinomas) and their matched blood samples were analyzed for LOH at 17 microsatellites by using PCR and fluorescence-based DNA sequencing technology, and the association of LOH with the clinicopathological phenotypes of patients was compared statistically. Results The lowest detection frequency of LOH in our subjects was observed at D8S261 with 33. 3%, and the highest frequency was at D9S125 with 85. 2%. There were 12 markers with the frequency of LOH higher than 50.0%, and 3 markers (D3S1597, D3S1285 and D9S125) with the frequency higher than 75. 0%. There was a significant difference in the frequency of LOH at D9S111 and D13S153 between tumors with different histological grades. LOH at D9S111 was observed in 2 of 12 tumors with well differentiation in 14 of 20 tumors with moderate differentiation, and in 14 of 16 tumors with poor differentiation. LOH at DI3S153 was observed in 2 of 8 tumors with well differentiation, in 12 of 28 tumors with moderate differentiation, and in 11 of 12 tumors with poor differentiation. There was a significant difference in the frequency of LOH at D8S261 between tumors with lymph node metastasis and without lymph node metastasis. LOH at D8S261 was found in 1 of 14 tumors with lymph node metastasis, and in 12 of 22 tumors without lymph node metastasis. Conclusions The widespread and frequent loss of heterozygosity may exist in esophageal cancer, and the candidate genes located in the site of frequent LOH may be involved in the development of this cancer; LOH at D9S11 and D13S153 are more commonly observed in the patients with higher histological grades, the tumors with LOH at D8S261 may have a low tendency to lymph node involvement.

Objective:To evaluate the cerebral blood flow circulation time (CCT) by contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and to explore the change rule of CCT in different degree of intracranial pressure, so as to provide a new method for non-invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure.Methods:Ten patients with hemorrhagic stroke or acute craniocerebral trauma with increased intracranial pressure were selected from Tangdu Hospital, the Air Force Military Medical University from January to December 2019. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound was performed when the invasive intracranial pressure (iICP) increased (>20 mmHg, iICP increased group) and decreased to normal (≤20 mmHg, iICP normal group), CCT was measured and analyzed. The differences of CCTs between different iICP groups were compared and the relationship between CCT and iICP was analyzed.Results:①The CCT on the lesion sides of the same patients in the iICP increased group was significantly longer than in the iICP normal group[(9.34±2.58)s vs (6.48±1.91)s, P=0.002]. ②When iICP was increased in patients with hemorrhagic stroke or acute craniocerebral trauma, the CCTs of the diseased side and the non-pathological side were not statistically significant [(9.34±2.58)s vs (9.01±3.22)s, P=0.809]. ③Pearson correlation analysis and Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that there were no correlations between patient′s breathing, heart rate, carbon dioxide partial pressure, body temperature, GCS score and CCT (all P>0.05). Age, mean arterial pressure and CCT were moderately correlated ( r=0.518, 0.463 and P=0.023, 0.046, respectively). ④Logistic regression analysis showed that CCT was an independent risk factor related to intracranial hypertension( OR=0.7, 95% CI=0.47-0.95, P=0.036). The area under ROC curve (AUC) predicted by logistic regression was 0.750(0.588~0.912). Conclusions:Contrast-enhanced ultrasound noninvasive assessment of CCT can reflect the intracranial pressure in patients with hemorrhagic stroke or acute traumatic brain injury, and CCT has a predictive value for intracranial hypertension. When the patient has limited conditions for invasive intracranial pressure monitoring, or when the invasive monitoring probe is pulled out but still needs to evaluate intracranial pressure, the change of CCT can provide an effective reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To detect the effect of ox‐LDL on self‐renewal and Oct‐4 express of MSCs in vitro .Methods MSCs cul‐tured in vitro were divided into 4 groups :blank control(no reagents in culture system ) ,ox‐LDL (1 ,5 ,10 ,20 μg/mL ox‐LDL were added into culture system) ,ox‐LDL+NAC(corresponding ox‐LDL were added into culture system after NAC treatment ) ,negative control(corresponding nLDL were added into culture system ) .Growth curve were drawn at different time ,Oct‐4 ,a stem cell special marker ,were detected by real‐time PCR ,the production of ROS (reactive oxygen species ,ROS) in culture system were measured with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy .Results proliferation of MSCs was inhibited by ox‐LDL ,when concentration of ox‐LDL was more than 5μg/mL ;apoptosis of MSCs appeared as well as attenuated expression of Bcl‐2 ,ox‐LDL generated a signifi‐cant amount of ROS in the culture system ,which was completely prevented by NAC .Conclusion The proliferation and Oct‐4 ex‐pression of MSCs were inhibited by ox‐LDL ,which may be related to increase of ROS in culture system .
