Objective To investigate the effects of the combination of tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (TwHF) and irbesartan on urinary podocyte in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) patients,and to discuss the mechanism of protective effect of TwHF on DKD.Methods A total of 45 type 2 diabetic kidney disease patients were enrolled into this prospective study,and were randomly divided into 3 groups:TwHF treatment group (DT,n =15),irbesartan treatment group (DI,n =15),and TwHF combined with irbesartan treatment group (DTI,n =15).After 6 weeks washout,the 3 groups were given TwHF (1-2 mg · kg-1 ·d-1),irbesartan (150-300 mg/d),and TwHF (1-2 mg · kg-1 · d-1) combined with irbesartan (150-300 mg/d) for 12 weeks respectively.Fifteen healthy volunteers served as controls.Urinary podocytes were identified and quantitated by immunofluorescence staining of urinary sediments labeled by monoclonal antibody podocalyxin.In addition,we studied urinary connective tissue growth factor (CTGF),osteopontin (OPN) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) concentrations in DKD patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results Urinary detached podocytes were obviously higher in the urine of DKD patients than in healthy controls (P <0.01).Podocyte detection rate was 86.6% in the urine of DKD patients.The protein expressions of CTGF,OPN and TGFβ1 in patients with urinary podocyte were significantly increased than those without urinary podocyte (P < 0.05 or 0.01).Correlation analysis showed that there was positive correlation between urinary protein excretion and urinary podocytes (r =0.79,P < 0.01) and there were positive correlations between the number of urinary podocytes and urinary protein expressions of CTGF,OPN and TGFβ1 (r =0.56,0.41,0.44,respectively,all P values < 0.01).Urinary albumin excretion and urinary podocytes were significantly decreased in all treatment groups (P < 0.01),simultaneously,urinary concentrations of CTGF,OPN and TGFβ1 were reduced in all groups at week 12 after intervention of TwHF,irbesartan and TwHF combined with irbesartan (P < 0.01),and these changes were more distinguished in combined treatment group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Urinary podocyte in the urine may be suggested to be an early effective marker of disease activity in DKD.TwHF may be effective to prevent podocyte injury in DKD,which may be mediated,at least partly,by down-regulating the expression of CTGF,OPN and TGFβ1.There is a synergistic protective effect of TwHF combined with irbesartan on podocyte injury in DKD patients.

To evaluate the value of Doppler tissue imaging(DTI) to assess left ventricular systolic and diastolic function by determining motion frequency of the mitral annulus in acute myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction. The left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD) was ligated in 10 pigs and systolic motion velocity(Sa), early diastolic velocity(Ea), late diastolic velocity(Aa) and Ea/Aa of lateral mitral annulus in apical 4 chamber view using DTI velocity model before and after ligation of LAD were determined.The results were compared with routine Doppler. In basal state, Ea/Aa was positively correlated with VE/VA (the ratio of early and late diastolic velocity of mitral flow) with Doppler imaging (?=0.82). After the ligation of LAD, Sa, Ea and Ea/Aa significantly decreased, while there was no difference in Aa. DTI is simple and easy for determining mitral annulus motion. It is a new quantitative and non invasive method to evaluate left ventricular function. [HS(2*2/3]

Objective To analyse the mitral annular abnormal motion in patients with myocardial infarction by using M-mode and freguency spectrum Doppler tissue imaging (DTI-M), and study its clinical value in assessing the LV function. Methods The total systolic annular displacement (MD), early diastolic displacement (MDe), late diastolic displacement (MDa) of posterier valve of mitral annular, systolic and diastolic motion velocilies (V S,V E,V A), time velocity integrals (TV IS,TV IE,TV IA) of the lateral wall of the mitral annulus were determined with DTI-M mode and freguency spectrum from apical four-chamber view in 28 cases of patients with myocardial infarction. Results The MD, MDe, MDe/MDa in patients with myocardial infarction were found to be decreased significantly (P

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the expressions CyclinD1 and nm23H1 and the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in cervical carcinoma. Methods 100 patients with cervical cancer were enrolled in this study. These patient were randomly divided into two groups. The observed group were treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical hyterectomy and lymphonectomy. The other 50 cases were treated by operation as control group. The expression of CyclinD1 and nm23H1 were examined by immunohistochemistry using post-operation specimens. Results The total response rate of neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 75 %( CR+PR). The expression rate of CyclinD1 was 76 % in experimental group, and 54 % in control group(P 0.05). Conclusion The neoadjuvant chemotherapy was helpful for the patients with local advanced stage of cervical carcinoma. CyclinD1 may be one of the path of NACT, but nm23H1 may not related to NACT.

Objective To study the mechanism of anti-aging effect of dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) and compound amino acid (AA) injection by mesotheray in D-galactose-induced skin aging rat.Methods Eighty rats were randomly divided into aging treatment group (60 cases),aging control group (10 cases) and normal control group (10 cases).The skin aging models were established by subcutaneous infectim of D-galactose.From the 18th day,the aging treatment group were injected intradermally in the rats' both sides hip skin with 0.2% DMAE+ AA,0.1% DMAE+AA,0.2%DMAE,0.1% DMAE,AA,and saline,once a week.After four weeks,HE,water content,superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity,hydroxyproline (HYP) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were measured.Results Compared with the aging control group,the epidermal and the dermal thickness and the collagen area of rats skin' increased significantly in 0.2 % DMAE+ AA and 0.1% DMAE+ AA treatment groups (P<0.05).0.2% DMAE+AA and 0.1 % DMAE+AA treatment groups also had higher SOD activity,HYP content and lower MDA content than other groups (P<0.05),but no difference was noted among normal control group,0.2% DMAE+AA and 0.1% DMAE+AA group (P>0.05).There were no differences in water content among groups (P>0.05).Conclusions Intradermal injection with 0.1% DMAE+ AA and 0.2 % DMAE+AA in aging rats may increase the epidermal and the dermal thickness and the collagen of rats skin' improve SOD activity,HYP content and decreased MDA content,indicating that it has ability to clear skin free radicals,enhance antioxidant capacity and skin collagen metabolism,and thus prevent skin aging.
