China Journal of Endoscopy 2016;22(12):49-54
Objective To evaluate the mucosal microvascular morphological changes in superficial nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its clinical value under narrow band imaging (NBI).Methods From 2015.01 to 2016.01, 182 patients at high risk for NPC received biopsy of superficial nasopharyngeal lesions due to the existence of irregular vessel under NBI while they were examined with electronic nasopharyngolaryngoscope quipped with white light mode and NBI mode. Compared the mucosal microvascular morphological characteristics of different diseases based on pathological result and evaluated the diagnostic efifcacy of NBI.Result Under NBI, the mucosal microvascular morphological characteristics of nasopharyngeal carcinoma under NBI mode were of that concentrated brown spots (CBS, 38.24 %) and irregularly dilated branching vessels (IDBV, 41.18 %) with demarcation line (DL, 52.94 %). In addition, IDBV were the main microvascular pattern in fresh NPC cases (57.89 %,P = 0.000), while CBS were the main microvascular pattern in post-radiation local recurrent NPC cases (60.00 %,P = 0.000). The sensitivity, speciifcity, positive predictive value, negative predictive values and diagnostic coincidence rate of NBI in NPC screening were 79.41 %, 95.95 %, 81.82 %, 95.30 % and 92.86 %, respectively.Conclusion NBI endoscopy is a promising tool for improving the early diagnosis of NPC by detecting mucosal microvascular morphological changes in superifcial NPC.

Objective To determine the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) in aldosterone-induced rat mesangial cells (RMCs) proliferation. Methods RMCs were obtained from intact glomeruli of 4- to 6-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats and characterized according to published methods. RMCs between passages 5 and passages 10 were used. Protein levels of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in RMCs were analyzed by Western blotting. The cells were divided into the following groups: control group, PD98059 (10 (μmol/L) group, eplerenone (1 μmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L) +PD98059 (10 μmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L)+eplerenone (1 μmol/L) group. ERK1/2 activity was measured by Western blotting. Cell proliferation of RMCs was evaluated by [3H]-thymidine uptake measurements.Results MR protein expression in RMCs was confirmed by Western blotting. Aldosterone activated ERK1/2, and the maximal ERK1/2 activation induced by aldosterone was at a concentration of 100 nmol/L. Aldosterone (100 nmol/L)-induced activation of ERK1/2 peaked at 10 minutes (P<0.05).Pretreatment with a selective MR antagonist eplerenone (1 μmol/L) significantly attenuated aldosterone-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Aldosterone (100 nmol/L) treatment for 30 hours increased [3H]-thymidine incorporation of RMCs (135% ±8% of controls, P <0.05). Cellular proliferation induced by aldosterone could be prevented by pretreatment with eplerenone or an ERK (MEK) inhibitor PD988059. Conclusion Aldosterone induces RMCs proliferation through MR and ERK1/2 activation, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of glomerular mesangial injury.

The results of RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry showed that the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor ( flk-1 ) in the renal cortex of insulin-resistant rats during the phase of normal blood glucose were significantly increased, which were decreased by telmisartan. The result suggests that telmisartan may ease kidney damage via decreasing VEGF and flk-1 expressions.
