Chinese Circulation Journal 2017;32(2):141-144
Objective: To investigate the impact of clopidogrel or aspirin resistance on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to explore the application value of thromboelastogram (TEG) in antiplatelet therapy. Methods: A total of 177 ACS patients admitted in our hospital from 2012-09 to 2014-12 were enrolled. The patients were at the mean age of (70.4±10.7) years, all of them received TEG and coagulation function test. Based on the reaction of antiplatelet therapy, they were divided into 2 groups: Non-resistance group,n=98 and Resistance group,n=70, which was further divided into 2 subgroups as Maintenance dose subgroup,n=39 and Increased dose subgroup,n=40. The patients were followed-up for 3 months to observe MACE occurrence including cardiovascular death, angina recurrence, ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, acute thrombosis and hemorrhage. Results: In Resistance group, there were 50/79 (63.3%) patients with aspirin resistance and 29 (36.7%) with clopidogrel resistance. Compared with Non-resistance group, Resistance group showed decreased coagulation time, clot formation time, TEG reducing rate after 30 minutes maximum amplitude (LY30), activated partial thrombin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT) and international normalized ratio (INR), allP<0.05; while increased levels angle, maximum amplitude of TEG, coagulationindex, ifbrinogen and D-dimer, allP<0.05. Compared with Non-resistance group, Resistance group had the higher MACE rate 21.5% vs 7.1%,P<0.05; in addition, Increased dose subgroup had the lower MACE rate than Maintenance dose subgroup 17.5 vs 25.6%,P<0.05. Conclusion: Clopidogrel or aspirin resistance had the higher incidence of MACE in elder ACS patients; TEG was helpful for guiding antiplatelet therapy and reducing MACE incidence.

Objective To examine the role of SPHK-1/S1P and NFκB p65 signal pathway in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)drug-resistant cells.Methods The drug-resistant cell line of lung cancer H460/DDP was constructed and its biological characteristics were identified successfully.The expression of SPHK-l was tested by RT-PCR and Western blot methods.S1 P and some proteins related to NFκB pathway were studied by Western blot. Results The drug-resistant lung cancer cell line H460/DDP was constructed and its drug-resistant ability was evaluated (IC50H460/DDP = 50.62μg/mL, RIH460/DDP = 2.95 ). Cisplatin at a concentration of 10 - 80 μg/mL significantly decreased cell death of drug-resistant cell line (P<0 .01 ).Western blot assay analysis showed that overexpressions of SPHK-l,S1 P and NFκB p65 were significantly higher in drug-resistant cell line than in their parent cell line H460 (P=0.0415,P=0.0465,P=0.0218).RT-PCR method revealed that SPHK-1 mRNA was overexpressed in drug-resistant cell line compared with that in their parent cell line H460 (P<0.05).More NFκB p65 protein in cell nucleus was expressed in drug-resistant cells than in parent cells.Conclusion SPHK-1/S1P and NFκB p65 signal pathway may play an improtant role in the drug-resistant H460 cell line in non-small cell lung cancer.
