Purpose Chronic nephropathy model was established with New Zealand rabbit, and the development of chronic nephropathy was monitored using virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ) technique, to provide the experimental basis for chronic renal fibrosis assessment using VTQ technique. Materials and Methods Thirty-eight healthy New Zealand white rabbits were selected, of which 32 were induced into chronic nephropathy model with daily intravenous ear vein injection of cationic bovine serum albumin (C-BSA), with the other 6 rabbits without C-BSA injection as control group. At the end of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks, VTQ was used to measure the hardness of renal cortex in rabbits, then the rabbits were slaughtered to assess the pathological changes in kidney, correlation analysis between the VTQ parameters and the pathological parameters was performed. Results VTQ value of rabbit kidney cortex at 0 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks was (1.68±0.25) m/s, (1.70±0.31) m/s, (1.87±0.35) m/s, (2.19±0.31) m/s and (2.46±0.46) m/s respectively, difference of VTQ values between 6 weeks and 4 weeks was statistically signiifcant (P<0.05), and also signiifcant when compared 8 weeks with 4 weeks and 6 weeks (P<0.05). Glomerulosclerosis index of 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks were 0.81±0.40, 1.43±0.46 and 2.15±0.46 respectively, and tubular interstitial collagen deposition score were (14.29±4.62)%, (26.28±11.06)%, (42.37±10.09)%, which were all significantly higher than that in 0 week and 2 weeks, fibrosis increased gradually with the course, the difference was statistically signiifcant (P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the VTQ value of renal cortex was positively correlated with glomerulosclerosis index (r=0.663, P<0.05) and tubular interstitial collagen deposition score (r=0.652, P<0.05). Conclusion VTQ technique is able to detect the VTQ change of renal cortex as the disease progressed in rabbits with chronic renal nephropathy, which was in a positive association with fibrosis index, suggesting that virtual touch tissues quantitative technology can be an important method to evaluate renal ifbrosis in chronic renal nephropathy.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) parameters and the pathologic parameter of renal fibrosis.MethodsThirty-eight healthy New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into the blank control group and the experimental group. The rabbits model was built by intravenous injection of C-bovine serum albumin (C-BSA) to rabbits of the experimental group. According to the different time points (2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks) after the injection of C-BSA, the rabbits in experimental group were randomly divided into 4 sub groups, 8 in each group. We collected the data of the CEUS parameters in the control group and the experimental group. Moreover, the renal tissues of the rabbits underwent pathologic examinations. Then, correlation analysis of CEUS parameters with parameters of renal fibrosis was performed.ResultsDynamic changes of CEUS parameters: Renal cortical perfusion reduced from 6 weeks after the injection, manifested as the time to peak (TTP) and mean transit time (MTT) of the experimental group were longer than those of control group and the derived peak intensity (DPI) of the experimental group was lower than that of control group (P<0.05 respectively). The DPI and TTP at 8 weeks after the injection of the experimental group was significantly lower than those of the control group [(26.96±2.34) dbvs (35.04±1.62) db,P<0.05; (24.31±1.82) svs (18.64±1.15) s,P<0.01]. Changes of each renal fibrosis parameter: we found that the results of the glomerulosclerosis indexes of the experimental group (4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks after the injection) were significantly higher than those of the control group (0.81±0.36, 1.43±0.25 and 2.15±0.30vs 0.13±0.07, allP<0.01). The tubular interstitial collagen deposition scores of the experimental group (4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks after the injection) were significantly higher than those of the control group (14.29%±4.62%, 26.28%±10.09% and 42.37%±10.41%vs 1.21%±0.15%, allP<0.01). As the disease progressed, the results of each parameter increased. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the TTP of renal cortex was positively correlated with the glomerulosclerosis index and tubular interstitial collagen deposition score (r=0.866 and 0.785, bothP<0.01). The DPI of renal cortex was negatively correlated with the glomerulosclerosis index and tubular interstitial collagen deposition score (r=-0.724 and -0.739, bothP<0.01).ConclusionsThe results showed that CEUS could evaluate microcirculation perfusion of renal cortex. There is a positive association between TTP and fibrosis index. There is a negative association between DPI and fibrosis index. Thus, CEUS is an important method to evaluate the renal fibrosis in chronic renal nephropathy.

OBJECTIVETo study blood Leptin level of 154 (78 male, 76 female) Chinese obese/non-obese children aged 0 - 14 years during 1999 - 2001.
METHODSThe gender- and age-specific distribution pattern of Leptin and its relationship with anthropometric parameters (waist circumference, waist/hip ratio, lean body mass, fat mass, body fat percentage, BMI/Kaup index etc.) and blood insulin level were recorded.
RESULTS(1) The blood Leptin level in healthy non-obese kids ranged from 1.01 - 29.92 (ng/ml), the mean values and SD were 2.99 +/- 2.13 (ng/ml) [90% confidence interval was 1.36 - 14.21 (ng/ml) in boys and 1.74 - 21.17 (ng/ml) in girls]. There was no significant difference in the blood Leptin level between serum and plasma. (2) The blood Leptin level was higher in overweight/obese kids than that in non-obese kids (P < 0.001). (3) There was significant difference in the blood Leptin levels between boys and girls groups (P = 0.023), especially in non-obese group (P = 0.004). The multiple regression analysis showed that there was no correlation between gender and blood Leptin level when body fat factor was added (P = 0.138, 0.241, 0.990), but there was still a strong correlation between blood leptin level and BMI, FM and BF% (P < 0.001). (4) There was a correlation between blood Leptin level and age (P = 0.005), especially in overweight/obese group and in girls (P = 0.001). The blood Leptin level rose from early puberty, especially in girl group (P = 0.045). There was significant difference in blood Leptin level in different age groups (P < 0.001) (5) There were strong positive correlation between blood Leptin level and BMI, BM and FM%, a weak correlation with LBM, and no correlation with W/H ratio in boys and a positive relationship in girls. The Quatatic equation was better than the linear equation in description of the correlation mentioned above. (6) There was a correlation between blood Leptin from 0 to 7 yr and birth weight (P = 0.001), after 7 yr of age this correlation disappeared (P = 0.456). (7) A positive correlation was seen between blood Leptin level and blood insulin level (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONThe blood Leptin level of 0 - 14 years old children is consistent with the level of growth of adiposity tissue and the degree of adiposity rebound.

Objective To investigate the effects of S-allylcysteine ( SAC ) , on nitric oxide ( NO ) production and antioxidant enzyme activities in hyperlipidemic rats. Methods Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into seven groups. Five groups including normal control group ( normal diet) , model control group ( high-fat diet, HFD) and SAC low,medium,high treated group (high-fat diet +25,50,100 mg·kg-1 SAC) were sacrificed after 4 weeks dosing,while the other two groups including L-arginine group (normal diet+ 20 mg·kg-1 L-arginine) and SAC+L-arginine group (50 mg·kg-1 SAC+20 mg·kg-1 L-arginine) were sacrificed at 4 h after dosing. The serum, livers and kidneys were collected. The levels of NO, the activities of nitric oxide synthase ( NOS ) , antioxidant enzymes in vivo and L-arginine contents in serum were determined. Results Comparing with model control group, the activities of total NOS in serum and liver were significantly reduced in SAC-treated groups (P<0. 05). The level of L-arginine in SAC-treated groups was (8. 25 ± 1. 15), (7. 76 ± 1. 24) and (7. 22 ± 1. 64)μg·mL-1 , respectively. Compared with model control group, the level of L-arginine were significantly reduced in SAC-treated groups (P<0. 05). Comparing with L-arginine group, the activities of total NOS (T-NOS) and iNOS were reduced in SAC+L-arginine group. SAC treatment (100 mg·kg-1) significantly increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) (P<0. 01) and the level of glutathione (GSH) (P<0.01), and decreased the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum and liver of hyperlipidemic rats. Conclusion These data suggest that SAC inhibits the NO production by reducing iNOS activity, arginine concentration and exhibited antioxidant activity, which may play a pharmacologically important role in protection from oxidative injury and pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.

Objective To investigate the correlation of endothelial function variation with pulse pressure index in Uygur acute coronary syndrome patients in Xinjiang. Methods Uygur patients were divided into acute coronary syndrome group (n=208) and control group (n=157) according to their Coronary angiography results. Height, weight and blood pressure were measured on admission and basic medical history were recorded. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), three acyl glycerin (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were ex-amined using fasting venous blood;Plasma Coagulation FactorⅧ(CFⅧ) and von Willebrand factor(vWF)were examined using ELISA. Results There are no statistical difference in age, gender, history of hypertension, diabetes history, history of smoking, drinking, body mass index, PPI, HDL-C and FBG between two groups. The systolic pressure, diastolic blood pres-sure, pulse pressure, TG, TC, LDL-C and vWF, CFⅧlevels in acute coronary syndrome group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The levels of plasma vWF and CFⅧwere positively correlated with pulse pressure and PPI, it also was positively correlated between the levels of plasma vWF and CFⅧ(P<0.01). Conclusion The endothelial func-tion was significantly impaired in Xinjiang Uygur patients with acute coronary syndromes, and vascular endothelial damage was positively correlated with pulse pressure and PPI. The pulse pressure and PPI can be used to evaluate the vascular endo-thelial function indirectly.
