Objective To examine the expression of angiopoietin-like protein(ANGPTL)3 in kidneys from children with primary nephrotic syndrome. Methods Immunohistochemistry for ANGPTL3 was performed in kidney biopsies from patients with nephrotic syndrome or hematuria, including MCD (n=31), MN(n=6), FSGS (n=6), TBMN (n=10), IgA nephropathy (IgAN) with mesangial proliferation (n=16). Normal renal tissue of 2 cases with nephrectomy for tumor were used as control. According to the episode, four groups were divided ("12 months"). The expression was quantitatively examined with IMS color image analysis system, using positive index (PI) as sediment degree of ANGPTL3 in glomeruli or tubules. Immunofluorescence for ANGPTL3 co-labeling with WT1 and perlecan was applied to show the distribution of ANGPTL3. Results (1) The PI levels of ANGPTL3 in glomeruli of MCD(7.49?1.96) and MN (6.27?0.98) were significantly higher than those of TBMN (0.02?0.001), FSGS (3.14?0.49) or normal control(0.02?0.001) respectively (all P

BACKGROUND: Preliminary study has shown that the composite materials composed of magnesium-based materials and mineralized collagen have a good supporting effect on repairing the critical defects, which can improve the mechanical strength of mineralized collagen and premature collapse during bone healing to some extent. However, magnesium-based metals degrade fast in chloride-containing solutions (including human body fluids or plasma), and the effects of releasing magnesium ions on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts are unknown. OBJECTIVVE: To investigate the effects of magnesium ion combined with mineralized collagen on osteogenic differentiation of mouse preosteoblasts in vitro. METHODS: Mineralized collagen extracts were prepared from complete medium with magnesium ion concentration of 0, 5, 10, and 20 mmol/L. Mouse preosteoblasts were cultured with four mineralized collagen extracts, respectively, which were divided into mineralized collagen group, and 5, 10 and 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen groups. The mouse preosteoblasts cultured in complete medium were used as control group. The cell morphology, proliferation, apoptosis, intracellular microfilament actin, and the activity of alkaline phosphatase and expression level of the osteogenic gene Runx2 after osteogenic differentiation were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) After 24 hours of culture, the cells in the mineralized collagen group, and 5 and 10 mmol/L Mg2++ mineralized collagen groups adhered well, which showed no significant difference from the blank control group, and the elongated spindle cells with many synapses linked to the adjacent cells were observed. The cells in the 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group showed obvious pyknosis. (2) After 1, 3 and 5 days of culture, the cell viability in the 10 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group was significantly higher than that in the other four groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference among mineralized collagen, 5 mmol/L Mg2++ mineralized collagen and blank control groups (P > 0.05). The cell viability in the 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group was significantly lower than that in the mineralized collagen group (P < 0.05). (3) After 3 days of culture, DAPI staining showed that 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group had obvious nuclear disintegration, the other four groups had no obvious nuclear disintegration. (4) After 24 hours of culture, phalloidin staining showed that except the blank control and 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen groups, the other three groups showed completely extended cell structure, and clear actin microfilaments, especially the 10 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group. (5) After 7 days of osteogenic differentiation, except for 20 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group, the activity of alkaline phosphatase and the expression level of Runx2 gene in the other three groups were significantly higher than those in the blank control group (P < 0.05), and those in the 10 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen group was significantly higher than those in the 5 mmol/L Mg2++mineralized collagen and mineralized collagen groups (P < 0.05). (6) These results suggest that the combination of magnesium ion with mineralized collagen should be applied with appropriate concentration range of magnesium ion (≤ 10 mmol/L).

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of the intervention by the family members on the rehabilitation of dysfunction of the patients with hemiplegia after acute cerebral infarction.MethodsSixty patients of hemiplegia caused by acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups, observing group and control group(30 patients for eaeh group).Patients in the observing group received family members' intervention in addition to the regular drug and rehabilitation treatment,which was used in control group only.The change of scores of Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA) and Modified Barthel Index(MBI) before and after treatment was evaluated respectively.ResultsThe scores of FMA and MBI in both groups rose very significantly eight weeks after treatment(P<0.001). But the scores of the obersevertion group were higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).ConclusionProper intervention by the family members plays an important role in enhancing the rehabilitation of acute cerebral infarction dysfunction and developing the patiennts' ability to take care of themselves in daily life.

Objective To determine the effect of primary realignment of posterior urethral injury associated with pelvic fracture on length and delayed operative treatment of ensuing urethral stricture.Methods A retrospective review was made on the clinical data of 64 patients with posterior urethral injury after pelvic fracture treated from January 2008 to January 2012.Of those patients,43 underwent primary endoscopic realignment (early realignment group) and 30 received primary suprapubic cystostomy (cystostomy group).All were evaluated postoperatively for the late stricture rate,stricture length,types of delayed repair,and operation frequency.Results Rate of stricture was 53％ (18/34) in early realignment group and 100％ (30/30) in cystostomy group,but all were corrected by delayed urethroplasty.Mean length of the stricture was (1.8±0.6) cm in early realignment group and (2.9±0.7)cm in cystostomy group(t=6.7,P＜0.05).Of the urethrostenosis patients in early realignment group,83％ (15/18) were successfully corrected with a simple endoscopic cold incision and 17％ (3/18) with open surgery.In contrast,only 60％ (18/30) in cystostomy group were successfully corrected by endoscopic cold incision.Patients in cystostomy group underwent (2.8 ± 0.5) procedures for cure compared with (1.6 ± 0.6) procedures in early realignment group (t =9.2,P＜0.05).Conclusion Primary endoscopic realignment for posterior urethral injury pelvic fracture offers the decrease in stricture incidence,stricture length,operation difficulty and operation frequency.

Objective To observe the effects of modifiedDanshen Decoction on spermidine/spermine acetyltransferase (SSAT) /polyamine pathways of SD rats with IRI; To investigate its protective mechanism. Methods The model of IRI was established by ligating left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 90 min. The SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, sham-operation group, model group and modifiedDanshen Decoction group, with 10 rats in each group. The myocardial infarction size was measured by using TTC staining. The contents of SSAT were measured by ELISA. The SSAT mRNA and SSAT protein expression level were detected with real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR method and Western blot, respectively. The contents of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, spermine) in cardiac tissue were detected by HPLC. Results Compared with sham-operation group, the myocardial infarction size, the SSAT content, the SSAT mRNA and SSAT protein expression levels of model group increased significantly, the contents of polyamines decreased significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.01); Compared with model group, the myocardial infarction size of modifiedDanshen Decoction group was significantly reduced, while the SSAT content and SSAT mRNA and protein expression level decreased significantly, the contents of polyamines increased, with statistical significance (P<0.05, P<0.01).ConclusionModifiedDanshen Decoction can adjust the SSAT polyamine pathways and increase polyamine content in cardiomyocytes, and thus play a role of protection of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

AIM: To establish an LC-MS/MS method for determination of evodiamine concentration in rat plasma and to study its pharmacokinetic profile in rats. METHODS: Six rats were administrated (i.g.) evodiamine at the dose of 100 mg/kg. Blood samples were collected from eye socket. Evodiamine concentration in rat plasma was determined by LC-MS/MS method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS program. RESULTS: A good linear relationship was obtained in the concentration range (0.2-50.0 ng/mL) studied (r2=0.9997). Average recoveries ranged from 96.12% to 99.46%. Intra-and inter-day relative standard deviations were 4.61%-13.51% and 5.65%-11.49%, respectively. The main pharmacokinetic parameters of evodiamine were as follows: Cmax (5.3±1.5) ng/mL; tmax (22±8) min; t1/2 (451±176) min. CONCLUSION: A selective and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantification of evodiamine in rat plasma is developed and validated. This method is successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic studies of evodiamine in rats.

AIM: To determine the concentration of escitalopram in human plasma by HPLC-MS/MS and investigate the pharmacokinetics of escitalopram. METH-ODS: The method involved protein precipitation with methanol. The chromatographic separation was achieved within 6.0 min by using methanol-water with 15 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate-formic acid (72:28:O.1, v/v/v) as mobile phase and a Lichrospher CN 150 mm×4.6 mm analytical column. The analytes were detected using an electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in SRM mode. Detection of the ions was performed by monitoring the transitions of m/z 325.0 to 234.0 for escitalopram and m/z 409.1 to 238.1 for amlodipine (intemal standard), respectively. RESULTS:The standard curve was linear ( r = 0. 999) over the concentration range of 0.20 - 50.00 ng· ml- 1. Accuracy and precision were below the acceptance limits of 15%. The recoveries of escitalopram ranged from 96.0% to 103.6%. The lower limit of quantification for escitalopram was 0.20 ng· ml-1 using 200 μl plasma sample.The pharmacokinetic parameters of escitalopram after a single oral dosing of escitalopram oxalate tablet (10 rog)to ten healthy male volunteers were achieved. The Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, t1/2 and Ke of escitalopram were 9.21±2.10 ng·ml-1 , 3.75±1.04 h, 514.6±152.3 ng·h·ml-1 ,540.5±162.3 ng·h·ml-1 , 34.06±7.71 h and 0.021±0.004 h-1,respectively.
