Objective To study the therapeutic effect of diltiazem and felodipine in treatment of hypertension after renal transplantation.Methods Sixty patients with hypertension after renal transplantation who were treated with tacrolimus as basic immunosuppressive therapy were divided into two groups by random digits table method with 30 cases each.The diltiazem group took diltiazem 90 mg orally once a day.The felodipine group received felodipine 2.5 mg orally twice a day.The drug dosages were adjusted according to the level of blood pressure.The patients were followed up for 1 year.The artery pressure,concentration-to-dose ratio of tacrolimus and renal function was detected and compared.Results Blood pressure was significantly decreased in both groups after 1 year treatment.Blood pressure was found to be significantly lowered from (153.6± 7.5)/ (97.7 ±6.7) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) to (119.1 ± 26.4)/ (72.6± 19.3) mm Hgin felodipine group; and from (152.0 ± 7.6)/(95.4 ± 6.9) mm Hg to (120.3 ± 25.5)/(73.2 ± 22.5) mm Hg in diltiazem group.There was no significant difference in blood pressure before and after treatment between two groups (P > 0.05).The concentration-to-dose ratio of tacrolimus was increased after treatment in diltiazem group[(173.2 ± 59.3) g/L vs.(119.3 ± 78.3) g/L] (P < 0.05),but there was no significant difference before and after treatment in felodipine group (P > 0.05).The serum creatinine had no significant difference in two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Diltiazem and felodipine can be used safely and effectively in the treatment of hypertension after renal transplantation,and diltiazem can lower the dose of tacrolimus.

Object To investigate the effects of Congsheng Capsule (CSC) on free radical change after cerebral ischemia reperfusion, and analyze the mechanisms of CSC anti cerebral ischemia action. Methods Bilateral carotid artery occlusion and reperfusion combined with tail bleeding hypotension were employed in this study. Changes in free radicals were observed by means of spectro photometry. Results CSC 1, 3, 9 g/kg could enhance SOD activity, reduce the MDA content, and decrease NOS activity and NO content. Conclusion The protective effects of CSC on cerebral ischemia may be mediated by its anti free radical and NO damage.

Object To investigate the profective effects of Congsheng Capsule (CSC) on cultured cerebral cortical neurons after cerebral ischemia reperfusion in order to study the anticerebral ischemia effect of CSC. Methods Drug containing serum was used to study the protective effect of CSC on neurons damaged during hypo glucos and hypoxia (3 h)/reoxygenation (0, 3, 6, 18 h), the demage to neurons was reflected by the increase in activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) released from cells into culture medium and the changes of apoptosic cells which were studied by flow cytometry. Results The serum preparation of CSC (2, 4, 8 g/kg) attenuated neuronal damage during hypo glucos and hypoxia (3 h)/reoxygenation (0, 3, 6, 18 h) by decreased LDH and changes in apoptosic cell numbers. Conclusion CSC has protective effects on cerebral ischemic damage.

BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus can give rise to bone metabolic disorders that may involve long-term hyperglycemia, hypoglycemic agents, diet control, estrogen, insulin-like growth factor, leptin, body mass, sex and age.
OBJECTIVE:To establish type 2 diabetic rat models, and to explore the influence of type 2 diabetes on bone metabolism.
METHODS:High-fat and high-glucose diets combining with 35 mg/kg streptozotocin were used to induce type 2 diabetic model in seven male Sprague-Dawley rats (diabetic group). Thirteen rats in control group were given intraperitoneal injection of the same amount of citric acid and sodium citrate buffer. At 4 weeks after modeling, the bone density of rats was serum detected by dual-energy X-ray, levels of fasting blood-glucose, cholesterol, triacylglycerol, serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, fasting insulin, osteocalcin and C-terminal telopeptide-I were measured, and morphology of bone was observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with control group, (1) the rat body mass and fasting blood-glucose kept on an overt rise in the diabetic group (P<0.05);(2) levels of cholesterol, triacylglycerol, fasting insulin and alkaline phosphatase, as wel as insulin resistance index were significantly increased, but insulin sensitivity index was significantly decreased in the diabetic group (P<0.05). (3) There were no significant differences in the levels of serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin and C-terminal telopeptide-I between two groups (P>0.05). (4) In the diabetic group, thinner and sparse bone trabeculae were split presenting more free broken ends;(5) the bone density in lumbar spine, double femoral, pelvic and thoracolumbar spine were al significantly decreased (P<0.05). (6) In conclusion, the type 2 diabetic rat model can be successful y induced by 5-week feeding high-fat and high-glucose diets combining with intraperitoneal injection of 35 mg/kg streptozotocin;these mode rats hold some characters, such as hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, diminished bone density, and accelerated bone resorption.

BACKGROUND:Kalikrein 1 is an important component of the kalikrein-kinin system. Studies have shown that kalikrein can protect the cardiovascular system by promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting myocardial inflammation, but there is no report on its effect on inducing differentiation of stem cels. OBJECTIVE: To determine the transfection efficiency of kalikrein 1 adenoviral vector in rat bone mesenchymal stem cels. METHODS:Using adenovirus as a vector, the target gene kalikrein 1 was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Fluorescence microscopy, MTT method and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect of transfection and determine the optimal multiplicity of infection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adenovirus carrying kalikrein 1 was successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Results from flow cytometry showed that the transfection efficiency was associated with the multiplicity of infection. When the multiplicity of infection was 150, the transfection efficiency was 80.8%. MTT results showed that when the multiplicity of infection was 200, the cel growth was inhibited remarkably. These findings indicate that adenovirus-mediated kalikrein 1 can be successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels with the optimal multiplicity of infection=150.
