Clinical Medicine of China 2011;27(3):245-248
Objective To evaluate the influence of tirofiban on myocardial perfusion through percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and platelet activation in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Eighty patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent emergency PCI within 12 hours were randomly divided into 2 groups due to the random number table method: tirofiban group (40 patients) and control group (40 patients). The control group received conventional anticoagulant therapy (aspirin + low molecular weight heparin + clopidogrel). The tirofiban group additionally received intracoronary tirofiban hydrochloride injection of 10 μg/kg PCI during PCI, intravenous maintenance dose of 0. 15 after PCI 15 mins, the changes of platelet activation before and after treatment 7 days,the bleeding complications and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days after PCI. Results The TMPG 3 perfusion percentage of tirofiban group (97.5% ,39/40) after PCI 15 minutes was significantly higher than that (80. 0%,32/40) of the control group( x2 = 4. 507,P < 0. 05 ) ;The expression positive rate of platelet activation CD62P,CD63, MPA of the tirofiban group after treatment of 7 days were ( 1.7 ± 0. 7 ) %, ( 1.5 ± 0. 7 ) % and ( 11.7 ±3.8)% ,respectively,which were significantly lower than those of before treatment ([7.2 ± 2. 5]%, [6. 9 ±1.8]% and [22. 0 ± 7. 8] %, respectivley) and those of the control group after treatment of 7 days ( [2. 9 ±1.2]% ,[3.9 ±0.6]% and [16.2 ±4.2]% ,respectivley)(t =5.463,16. 468 and 5.025, Ps <0.01 );The incidence of cardiovascular events of the tirofiban group (0) was significantly lower than that of the control group ( 15.0%, 12/40 ) after treatment of 30 days ( x2 = 4. 504, P < 0. 05 ); The incidence of bleeding complications was not significant between the 2 groups ( x2 = 0. 180, P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion The application of tirofiban hydrochloride in intervention in acute myocardial infarction can improve myocardial perfusion, and further inhibiting platelet activation and reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiac events after PCI while does not increase the incidence of severe bleeding.

Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2024;37(9):1075-1079
Objective To investigate the induction of L-forms of Yersinia pestis by enrofloxacin,in order to know more about the formation conditions and biological characteristics of L-form Yersinia pestis.Methods Yersinia pestisEV were cultured in Hiss agar media containing 0,0. 5,5,10,50,100,500 and 1 000 ng/mL enrofloxacin respectively. The cultures containing 50 ng/mL enrofloxacin was subcultured in Hiss agar media without enrofloxacin for reversion. The colonial morphology of each sample was observed. The bacterial morphology was observed by Gram staining and cell wall staining,while the cell wall integrity by transmission electron microscope. Yersinia pestis EV and L-form Yersinia pestis were identified by 16S rDNA,analyzed for the homology and the phylogenetic tree were constructed.Results Enrofloxacin 0. 5 ng/mL contained in Hiss agar media caused morphological changes of Yersinia pestis,from typical short-rod to long-rod shape. When the concentration of enrofloxacin was 50 ng/mL,the cell wall of Yersinia pestis was deficient,and the bacteria could not divide and proliferate normally,but showed long-rod shape and coiled into a mass,with the colonial morphology like fried eggs. Enrofloxacin-induced L-form Yersinia pestis reversed in normal Hiss agar media,and displayed a typical Yersinia pestis short-rod shape. 16S rDNA identification showed that the homology between the induced strain and the parent EV strain before induction was 100%.Conclusion Enrofloxacin can induce the L-forms of Yersinia pestis.

OBJECTIVE:To explore differentiation of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells into neural stem cells induced by the recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor and recombinant human epidermal growth factor.
METHODS:The human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells were induced by basic fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor in vitro. The cellmorphology was observed by invert microscope. The differentiation status was detected by immunofluorescence. The Nestin expression in mRNA level before and after induction was detected by real-time PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The neural stem cellbal s were observed after induction. And the Nestin was detected by immunofluorescence and real-time PCR. Nestin could further differentiate to the neuronal markproteins neuron-specific enolase, microtubule-associated protein 2 protein and glial fibril ary acidic protein. Results from this study show that basic fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor can induce human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate to neural stem cells, neurons and glial cells.

As a novel branch of combinational chemistry, dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) can be viewed as a technique which combines library synthesis and screening in one pot. By addition of molecular target, ligangds, which show binding affinity or strong interaction with the molecular target, can be amplified an young but rapidly growing branch of combinatorial chemistry, has been widely used in organic chemistry, biochemistry, material fields. Ligands in the library can be amplified, since synthesis of the library is screened by a molecular target. Therefore, these structures could be identified easily. Consequently DCC has been widely used in the lead discovery, material chemistry and other fields. On the basis of the principle and method of DCC, this review emphasizes the three factors of DCC, including molecular targets (bio-enzyme, lectin, nucleic acid, organic molecule, inorganic molecule); reaction (disulphide chemistry, ammoniation reduction reaction, hydrazone chemistry, etc.) and analytical method. Meanwhile, limitation, current situation and future development of DCC were also discussed in this paper.

Objective To assess the predictive value of neutrophil gelatinase associated protein lipocalin (uNGAL) in urine for detection of acute kidney injury(AKI) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods Patients with severe traumatic brain injury from the ICU were collected from Jan. 2011 to May. 2013 in our hospital. 43 cases that met the RIFLE criteria for diagnosis of AKI in the ICU within 7 days were selected as AKI group. Another 43 cases that were matched for age ,gender ,illness severity , surgery method with AKI cases ,selected as non‐AKI group. The levels of uNGAL and Scr were measured when the patients admit‐ted in the ICU with 15 min ,at 24 h ,48 h ,72 h. the sensitivity and specificity of uNGAL and Scr for diagnosis for AKI were evalua‐ted by ROC curve. Results The incidence of severe traumatic brain injury AKI was 42. 16% (43/102). The uNGAL levels in the AKI group were higher when the patient stayed in the ICU longer and no obvious in the non AKI group. When admitted to the ICU 24 h ,the level of uNGAL(720. 32 ± 684. 25)ng/mL in AKI group was significantly higher than that (421. 92 ± 351. 20)ng/mL in non AKI group. The difference was statistically significant (P< 0. 05). The levels of Scr between two groups were not statistically significant. The area under ROC curve of uNGAL and Scr were 0. 879 (95% CI :0. 807 - 0. 949) and 0. 612 (95% CI :0. 493 -0. 731). When the cutoff value of uNGAL was 180 ng/mL ,the sensitivity and specificity were 0. 890 and 0. 823 respectively. The sensitivity was superior to Scr. Conclusion uNGALis superior to Scr for early diagnosis of AKI in patients with severe traumatic brain injury and it could be used as a biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of different doses of Xiao Chai Hu Tang on C6 glioma cells cultured in vitro. Methods:C6 glioma cells were inoculated in 96 holes,24 holes and 6 holes,each culture plate was divided into 4 groups:control group, low dose group, middle dose group and high dose group, when the cells covered the bottom of culture plate 80%-90%,began adding,cultured for 24 hours after the ter mination of training. Cell proliferation activity,cell viability,protein content and protein positive expression intensity of VEGF and ESM-1,cell apoptosis in early and late stage were detected by CCK-8,in vivo staining,ELISA, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry. Results: CCK-8 assay showed that the growth of C6 glioma cells was inhibited by low,medium and high dose group;ELISA and immunocytochemistry showed that the expression of VEGF and ESM-1 was lower in the lower, middle and high dose groups, and the levels of protein expression and protein levels were decreased. The flow cytometry showed that the low dose of small radix,middle and high dose group could promote the cell apoptosis. Inverted microscope ob-servation showed that with the increase of dose,the number of cells increased gradually,and the number of dead cells increased,and all kinds of detection methods showed that the inhibition effect increased with dose and dose dependence. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0. 01). Conclusion:The growth of C6 glioma cells was significantly inhibited by Xiao Chai Hu Tang. It may play a role in inhibiting tumor growth by down regulating ESM-1 and VEGF protein level and promoting cell apoptosis.
