AIM: To explore protective and therapeutic effects of the shenfu injection (SF) against renal ischemia reperfusionand and its possible mechanisms by studying the impact of SF on P38 mitogen activated protein kinase (P38MAPK), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) and intercellular adhensive molecule-1 (ICAM-1). METHODS: 36 male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, ischemia reperfusion (IR) group and SF group. Rats were subjected to left renal pedicle occlusion followed by reperfusion with contralateral nephrectomy. The expression of P38MAPK and ICAM-1 were evaluated by Imunohistochemistry. The expression of TNF-? in the kidney tissue and plasma were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: The expression of P38MAPK and ICAM-1, concentration of TNF-? in IR group were higher than that in the control group (P

Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2006;0(03):-
Mammalian gonadotropin-releasing hormone(termed GnRHⅠ) is a decapeptide that plays key role in the process of reproduction.In addition to its well-known endocrine function, it has become evident that GnRHⅠ and the second GnRH subtype(termed GnRHⅡ) are potentially important autocrine and/or paracrine regulators in placental trophoblast cells.The effects of GnRHⅠ and GnRHⅡ on trophoblastic cell invasion were investigated in human choriocarcinoma cell line(JEG-3) by the methods of invasion assay, RNA interference, Western blot and Real-time PCR.The data revealed that exogenous native peptide of these two forms of GnRH significantly induced the expression of typeⅠ GnRH receptor(GnRHRⅠ) in JEG-3 cells.The specific siRNA for GnRHR Ⅰ was capable of blocking the invasion-promoting effect of GnRHⅠ, but did not influence the effect of GnRHⅡ.The data suggested that the two hormones may be elicited by distinct receptors.Interference of the activities of ERK and JNK was capable of attenuating GnRH Ⅰ and Ⅱ-induced MMP-2 expression and trophoblast invasion, indicating that activation of ERK and JNK are required in both GnRH Ⅰ and GnRH Ⅱ-mediated MMP-2 production and invasion-promoting effect in human trophoblastic cells.

Objectives To investigate the changes and signiifcance of serum tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and anti-ds-DNA antibody in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis (LN) in children. Methods Sixty-seven children with SLE among whom 52 children had LN were selected and 30 healthy children were selected as normal controls. The level of serum TNF-αwas measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the anti-ds-DNA antibody level was measured by radioimmunoassay. Results The serum levels of TNF-αand anti-ds-DNA antibody were signiifcantly higher in children with SLE or LN than those in healthy controls (P all<0.01). Furthermore, the serum levels of TNF-αand anti-ds-DNA antibody were signiifcantly higher in active phase than in stationary phase of SLE and LN (P all<0.01). The serum TNF-αlevel was positively correlated with SLE disease activity index score and serum anti-ds-DNA level in 67 SLE patients (P<0.05). Conclu-sions The serum levels of TNF-αand anti-ds-DNA antibody were increased in children with SLE and LN and were positively correlated with disease activity.

Objectives To evaluate the reliability and validity of SF-36 in old people in community. Methods 378 old people in community were investigated by SF-36 by face-to-face interview, and the score of items was analyzed.Reliability and validity of SF-36 were evaluated by item-internal consistency,item discriminant vadility,Cronbach's alpha coefficient, et al. Results The clustering and ordering of the item means of SF-36 were the same as that hypothesized, except for items PF2,PF10,RP3,GH4. The correlation between an item and its hypothesized scale was 0.4 or above for all items. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient were above the standard of 0.7 for all except SF scale. Conclusions SF-36 Health Survey Questionnaire is available for the elderly people. The present evaluation proposes some minor word and item changes which is more suitable for old people.
