Objective　To observe the effect of high glucose on retinal capillary pericytes in vitro and research the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods　Retinas dissected from eyes of fresh killed cattle were separated and retinal capillary pericytes were cultured. The effect of high glucose on pericytes was evaluated by measurement of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),3H-thymidine incorporation and liquid scintillation techniques.Morphological changes were observed under microscope and electric microscope.Results　There was no significant difference in LDH activity in the supernatants between high glucose(10、20、40mmol*L-1) and normal glucose(5mmol*L-1)cultured for 48h or 96h. High glucose had an effective inhibition on pericytes' proliferation cultured for 48h,96h and 144h, and the inhibition rate increased when the glucose concentration rised and time passed by. The inhibition rate of pericytes was 78.09% after cultured in high glucose (40mmol*L-1) for 144h. Conclusion　High glucose has an effect inhibition on pericytes' proliferation, and the inhibition rate increase when the glucose concentration rises and time passes by.

Objective To explore the relationship between the interleukin-6 (IL-6) RS1800796 gene polymorphism and susceptibility of Enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection.Methods One hundred and twenty-three children with EV71 infection were selected as infection experimental group from March 2012 to December 2014 in the Central Hospital of Xiangtan,and they were divided into mild EV71 infection group (62 cases) and severe EV71 infection group (61 cases).And 52 age-and gender-matched healthy children were selected as the healthy control group.Two mL blood samples were collected from all subjects,and DNA was extracted by Beijing Optimal Boland Gene Technology LTD.The SNaPshot was used to determine the genotype for G/C polymorphism at RS1800796 position of IL-6 gene.Results The genotype frequency of IL-6 RS1800796 GG in the infection experimental group [73.2％ (90/123 cases)]was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group[48.1％ (25/52 cases)],and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =10o 215,P =0.002,OR =2.945,95 ％ CI:1.500-5.782).No significant difference was found in the distribution of genotype frequency of the IL-6 RS1800796 GG between the mild EV71 infection group and the severe EV71 infection group[71.0％ (44/62 cases)vs.75.4％ (46/61 cases),x2 =0.309,P =0.685].The G allele in IL-6 RS1800796 G/C was more frequent in the infection group (85.0％)than that in the control group (70.2％),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =10.183,P =0.002,OR =2.399,95％ CI:1.389-4.143).No significant difference was found in allele frequency of the IL-6 RS1800796 G between the mild EV71 infection group and the severe EV71 infection group (83.1％ vs.86.9％,x2 =0.703,P =0.477).Conclusion The G allele of IL-6 RS1800796 confers susceptibility to infection of EV71.But G allele carrier will not increase the risk of severity after infection.

Objective To explore characteristics of sleep structure and the correlation with cognitive function in cerebral infarction combined with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (CI-OSAHS).Methods The patients with CI-OSAHS and OSAHS in Department of Neurology and Breathing Sleep Monitoring Room of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from December 2009 till March 2011 were collected All the patients completed polysomography(PSG).Sixty patients were selected and divided into 3 groups based on PSG.These 3 groups were combined group 20 persons (CI-OSAHS),OSAHS group 20persons (OSAHS) and control group 20 persons (without cerebral infarction obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome).All the patients completed image examinations ( CT and MRI ) evaluation of the cognitive function by Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA).Results Sleep structure:the awake time,non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM) 1,NREM 2 and NREM periods in combined group and OSAHS group were significantly longer,the NREM3 + 4 and rapid eye movement(REM) periods were shorter than the control group.The NREM and NREM 1 periods in combined group were longer,the NREM 3 +4 and REM periods were shorter than the OSAHS group.The correlation analysis of cognitive function and breathing disorders and low oxygen related index:there was negative correlation between the total scores of cognitive function (MMSE and MoCA)and apnea hyponea index,oxygen desaturation index (ODI) ( MMSE r =-0.450,-0.671,MoCA r =-0.486,- 0.494,all P ＜0.05) while,was positive correlation between them and noctumal average hypoxemia and minimum hypoxemia ( MMSE r =0.477,0.485,MoCA r =0.507,0.482,all P ＜0.05) in the OSAHS group.There was negative correlation between ODI,arousal index and the total scores of MoCA in the combined group (MoCA r=-0.463,0.480,both P＜0.05),there was correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the other sleep parameters,but,there was no difference in statistics.The correlation analysis of cognitive function and sleep stages:There was positive correlation between the total scores of cognitive function ( MMSE and MoCA) and the NREM 3 + 4 periods ( r =0.521,0.474,both P ＜ 0.05 ) while,there was negative correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the N REM 1 + 2 periods (r =-0.458,P ＜ 0.05 )in the OSAHS group.There was positive correlation between the REM period and the total scores of MoCA (r =0.472,P ＜ 0.05 ).There was correlation between the total scores of MMSE and the sleep structure,but,there was no difference in statistics in combined group.Conclusions Patients with OSAHS have obvious sleep structure disorder.The awake time and light sleep periods are significantly longer than the control group,while,the deep sleep and REM periods are significantly shorter than the control group.The NREM 1 of the patients with CI-OSAHS is longer than the patients with OSAHS.The higher the AHI,the lower the night blood oxygen,the more obvious cognitive dysfunction The longer the awake time,the longer the light sleep,the shorter the deep sleep and REM periods,the more serious cognitive dysfunction.The correlation between the cognitive impairment and low oxygen is more apparent than sleep structure.There is apparent correlation among the total scores of MoCA,the degree of hypoxia and sleep structure in the patients with CI-OSAHS.The total scores of MoCA are more sensitivity than MMSE in mild vascular cognitive impairment.

Objective To observe the expression of HER-2 and TOPO-Ⅱα in ovarian epithelial cancer,analyze the correlation between their expression and provide theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis,prognosis and treatment. Methods Expression levels of HER-2 and TOPO- Ⅱα in 10 normal ovarian tissues,20 benign tumors and 58 cases of ovarian epithelial cancers were detected by immunohistochemical method, and their correlations with pathological features were analyzed. Results The positive expression rate of HER-2 in normal ovarian and benign tumor tissues were significantly lower than ovarian epithelial cancers respectively ( 10. 0% , 15.0% VS 46. 6% ;P ＜ 0. 05 ). The positive expression rate of TOPO- Ⅱα in ovarian epithelial cancers was significantly higher than normal and benign epithelial ovarian tumor tissue (53.4% vs 10. 0%, and 15.0%,Ps ＜ 0. 05 ), but we did not find significant difference in the comparison between normal and benign epithelial ovarian tumor tissue ( Ps ＞ 0. 05 ). The expression of HER-2 and TOPO- Ⅱα were significantly correlated with clinical stages, histological differentiation of tumor cells (Ps ＜ 0. 05 ) ,but there were no correlations between the age or histological type. In ovarian cancer tissues, a positive correlation between the expression of HER-2 and TOPO- Ⅱα was observed ( r = 0. 324, P ＜ 0. 05 ) . Conclusion The overexpression of HER-2 and TOPO- Ⅱαplay an important role in ovarian carcinogenesis and development. The expression of HER-2 is positively correlated with TOPO- Ⅱα in ovarian epithelial cancers. Coexpression of the two moleculars may be involved in the development and progression of ovarian epithelial cancer, which should be further studied.

Objective To explore the risk factors for lung cancer-related cerebral infarction . Methods The hospitalized active lung cancer patients on anti-cancer therapy with no traditional stroke risk factors, who experienced an acute cerebral infarct in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2005 to December 2015, were consecutively collected as the LCRS ( lung cancer-related stroke) group.The active lung cancer patients without cerebral infarction hospitalized at the same peroid matched with the LCRS group for age and gender were collected as the LC ( lung cancer ) group. Clinical data from the two groups were analyzed .Results A total of 139 LCRS patients and 139 LC patients were enrolled in the study , with 110 male and 29 female in each group , and there were no significant difference for the mean age between the LCRS group (52.1 ±10.4 years old ) and the LC group (52.1 ± 10.1 years old).Two or more acute ischemic lesions of the brain were showed by MRI in most patients in the LCRS group (117 cases, 84.2%).Compared with the LC group, more patients in the LCRS group were found with adenocarcinoma , metastasis, elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels [ 88 cases (63.3%) vs 47 cases (33.8%);98 cases (70.5%) vs 56 cases (40.3%);(468.38 ±291.37) μg/L vs (277.59 ±191.22) μg/L;(221.42 ±146.34) U/ml vs (106.84 ±69.97) U/ml;(254.68 ±185.84) U/ml vs (97.15 ±63.64) U/ml;with all P<0.001].By logistic regression analysis of multiple factors , the elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels were showed to be independent risk factors for the cerebral infarction (OR=1.003, 95%CI 1.001 -1.004; OR=1.006, 95%CI 1.003 -1.010; OR=1.011, 95%CI 1.007-1.015).Conclusions The elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels are the risk factors for the lung cancer related cerebral infarction , which may lead to hypercoagulation and induce cerebral infarction eventually .

Objective To explore the mechanism of Tangshenkang in the prevention and treatment of diabetic nephropathy. Methods HK-2 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into control group, high glucose group (30 mmol/L D-glucose), control group (30 mmol/L D-glucose+10% animal serum), and Tangshenkang drug-containing serum therapy groups (30 mmol/L D-glucose+5%low concentration Tangshenkang, 30 mmol/L D-glucose+10%middle concentration Tangshenkang, 30 mmol/L D-glucose+20% high concentration Tangshenkang). After 24 h and 48 h treatment, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in cell cultural supernatant were observed by ELISA. Results MMP-9 of HK-2 cultured with high glucose was much decreased and TIMP-1 increased significantly than the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). TIMP-1 significantly decreased and MMP-9 increased in HK-2 cultured with high glucose plus Tangshenkang compared with those only induced by high glucose, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Tangshenkang could regulate the secretion of fibrosis cell factor of HK-2 cell induced by high glucose, which may be one of the mechanisms in its treatment of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To observe he effects of new Tangshenkang on α-SMA and E-cadherin of human renal tubular epithelial cell HK-2 in high concentrations of glucose; To explore the mechanism of new Tangshenkang on the prevention and treatment of diabetic renal fibrosis. Methods The HK-2 cells were cultured and divided into control group, high glucose group, animal serum control group, new Tangshenkang low-, medium-, and high-dosage group.
