AIM: To investigate the effects of Lipopolysaccharide(LPS) and interieukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL- 1ra) on mesangial cells proliferation and nitric oxide synthesis. METHODS: Glomerular mesangial cells from SD rats were cultured. The first and second passages of cultured cells were used for the experiment. LPS and LPS plus IL- 1ra were added in cell cultures, respectively. By using chemical method the nitrite in supernatants was measured ,3H- TaR incorporation was determined to evaluate the GMC proliferation. Northern and slot hybridizations were performed to detect the expression of iNOS mRNA. RESULTS: There were expression of iNOS mRNA, more production of nitrite(0.64 + 0.25 vs 0. 12 + 0.06 nmol/104 cell) in supernatants and GMC proliferation(3735 + 1177.9 vs 1785 + 280.6) in LPS group compared to the control. While compared with LPS group, in LPS + IL- 1ra GMC group, expression of iNOS mRNA decreased by 40%, nitrite increased(3.28 + 0.33 nmol/104 cell), proliferation of GMC decreased (818 + 77.27). CONCLUSION: LPS could activate the GMC to express iNOS mRNA and produce more nitrite. IL - 1ra could partially inhibit the effects of LPS on the expression of iNOS mRNA in GMC, but not nitrite. There is no synchronous correlation between NO production and GMC proliferation.

Objective To analyze type IV collagen a5 chain mRNA and to study the relationship between genotype and phenotype in X-linked Alport syndrome. Methods Total RNA was isolated from the cultured skin fibroblasts of 21 unrelated Chinese X-linked Alport syndrome patients (17 males and 4 females),then ?5 chain (Ⅳ) mRNA was analyzed by using reverse-transcription-polymerase reaction (RT-PCR) and direct sequencing. Meanwhile,by using PCR and direct sequencing,detection of COL4A5 gene mutations at genomic DNA level was carried out. Results Abnormal ?5 chain IV cDNA was detected in 21 X-linked Alport syndrome patients,and seventeen mutations detected in this study were novel mutations. In 15/21 of patients,identical COL4A5 mutations were detected both at mRNA level and genomic DNA level,and in 6/21 of patients with splicing-site mutations,changes in transcript structure differed from changes in genomic DNA level. 16/21 of patients belonged to X-linked juvenile kindreds,and 2/21 of patients to adult kindreds. Conclusion Different type of mutations in COL4A5 can lead to the severe form of X-linked Alport syndrome,and mRNA-based procedures can both directly detect mutations in the coding sequences,as well as changes in transcript level or structure,and can identify some abnormalities that would otherwise have been missed by DNA-based procedures.

Objective To evaluate the left ventricular function and the synchrony of myocardial ischemic segments in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) after PTCA and stent implantation by quantitative tissue velocity imaging (QTVI). Methods Thirty-six patients with isolated left anterior descending stenosis (≥75%) were examined by QTVI three days before, one week and one month after successful PTCA and stent implantation to measure the following items of 5 different left ventricular segments: peak systolic velocity( Vs), early diastolic velocity (Ve), late diastolic velocity (Va), time to peak systolic velocity(Ts). Then the coefficient of variation (SD/mean) of the 5 different Ts were calculated.Results The value of Vs,Ve and Va were decreased and the Ve/Va ratio was reverses three days before PTCA + stent. Compared with that before PTCA + stent,the value of Vs and Ve were increased significantly in one week ( P <0. 05) and one month( P <0.01 ) after PTCA + stent,respectively,the value of Va was not statistically significant. Ve/Va ratio was recovered in one week after PTCA treatment. Ts and Ts-SD were shorted dramatically in one week( P <0. 05) and one month( P <0.01 ) after PTCA + stent compared with that before PTCA + stent in which Ts were prolonged more than 33 ms. Conclusions QTVI can quantitatively assess the left ventricular function and the synchrony of myocardial ischemic segments, and can be used to real-time detect the changes of function and synchrony of left ventricle after PTCA and stent implantation.
