Objective To observe the levels of matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) and tissue factor (TF) as well as blood lipid in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) ,and to study the effect of Fluvastatin on levels of serum MMP- 9 and plasma TF. Methods 40 patients with ACS were selected (including 20 patients with AMI and 20 patients with UAP) ,20 stable angina patients (SAP) and 13 patients without coronary heart dis-ease as control group. 40 patients with ACS were randomly assigned to the Fluvastatin group (n = 20) and the rou-tine group (n = 20) in this study. The MMP - 9 and TF were detected on admission and after 2 weeks treatment. Re-suits The levels of MMP-9 and TF were significantly higher in ACS group than that of SAP and control group (P < 0.001 ,P < 0.05) ,which were elevated in AMI group compared with that of UAP group (P < 0.05). The levels of cholesterol (TC) ,low density Lipoprotein (LDL - C) ,MMP- 9,TF decreased significantly at two weeks after treat-ment in fluvastatin group (P < 0.05), but no significant changes were observed in the routine group (P > 0.05). The change of MMP 9, TF and blood lipid was not related in fluvastatin group (P > 0.05). Conclusion Serum MMP-9 and plasma TF in ACS patients are significantly elevated and fluvastatin decreases the levels of MMP-9 and TF after two weeks treatment,so it may be benefit to atheroaclerotic plaque stabilization and prohihit thrombosis for-marion, and this is not related to regulation of blood lipid.

Mesoporous silica SBA-15 with a small organic molecular (1,8-Naphthalimide) was synthesized and used as matrix for MALDI-TOF-MS ( Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry) analysis. A modified SBA-15 matrix, SBA-15-NA (1,8-Naphthalimide) was synthesized by covalently attaching SBA-15 to an 1 , 8-naphthalimide formed by 1 , 8-naphthalic anhydride and 3-( trimethoxysilyl) propylamine. The mass spectra obtained with SBA-15-NA exhibited less background interference ions, higher desorption/ionization efficiency, and higher peak intensity. The matrix was initially prepared in methanol and mixed with analyte at a 1∶1 volume ratio in vial. The solution of mixture was at a 10∶1 concentration ratio of matrix/analyte on a stainless steel target and allowed to air dry. The method was used to analyze various types of low molecular weight ( less than 500 ) chemical compounds such as monosaccharides, amino acids, phytohormones, drugs. Under the optimal conditions, it gave low detection limit of 1×10-9 g/L (Leucine, S/N=5) and good reproducibility (≤30%). The modified mesoporous silica materials have been employed in the urinary study for direct detection of metabolites.

Purpose To investigate the distribution of polymorphisms of quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) C609T gene in breast cancer patients, and to analyze the relationship with breast cancer molecular subtype. Methods Genotyping of C609T rs1800566 lo-cus of NQO1 gene in peripheral blood of 248 cases of female breast cancer were detected using high-throughput TaqMan MGB real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR technology, while the detection of ER, PR, HER-2 and Ki-67 in cancerous tissues were used with immu-nohistochemical staining and FISH gene amplification. Results Among 248 cases of breast cancer patients, CC genotype accounted for 27. 42% (68/248), CT genotype accounted for 49. 60% (123/248), TT genotype accounted for 22. 98% (57/248), which con-sistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law genetic (P>0. 05). 5 cases of HER-2 (++) who did not undergo FISH testing were re-moved, all the rest were done with FISH detection. Luminal A type accounted for 15. 2% (37/243), Luminal B type accounted for 51. 4% (125/243), HER-2 overexpression type accounted for 19. 8% (48/243), basal cell type accounted for 13. 6% (33/243). Compared with patients carrying the CC genotype, ER and PR positive rates in breast cancer patients carrying CT and TT genotype was significantly higher (P<0. 05), while there was no statistically difference on the expression of HER-2 and Ki-67 proteins in two groups (P>0. 05). There was no statistically difference on distribution of C609T polymorphism of NQO1 gene among different molecular sub-types of breast cancer (P>0. 05). Conclusions Here is no relationship between C609T polymorphism of NQO1 gene and breast cancer molecular subtype, miss rate of NQO1 ( CT+TT) in basal cell carcinoma is lower, and its gene polymorphism may provide the reasonable explanation to the heterogeneity of breast cancer molecular subtype.
