PurposeTo observe the effects of blocking the renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system at different sites in experimental congestive heart failure (CHF)rats. Methods Six weeks after coronary ligation, rats( n = 66)were randomized to benalapril, losartan, spironolactone, placebo, and treated for 6 weeks. Sham-operated rats( n = 18) served as controls. Six weeks later left ventricular hemodynamics were measured. Results In the hemodynamic variables, HR was not significantly different between groups. Compared four treatment groups with sham-operated group, LVEDP increased, LVPSP and ± dp/dtmax decreased (P<0.05). Compared with placebo group,all data in spironolactone group were not significantly different, LVEDP, mortality in benalapril group and in losartan group decreased, LVPSP and ± dp/dtmax in benalapril group and in losartan group increased(P < 0.05). ConclusionsAdministration of ACEI and Ag Ⅱ-AT1 antagonist are effective in preventing from cardiac function deterioration, while spironolactone treatments are not. Spironolactone has tendency in decreasing LVEDP.

Objective To explore the clinical feature and gene mutation in steroid 5α-reductase 2 deficiency (SRD5A2). Method The clinical data of SRD5A2 in a child with vulva abnormality as the first manifestation was retrospectively analyzed. Results This was a 29-month-old child, whose social gender was female. The level of her basic luteinizing hormone (LH) was 0.07 mIU/mL, and follicle-stimulating hormone was (FSH) 0.39 mIU/mL. The baseline levels of testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and androstendione (A2) were 0.06 ng/mL, 19.67 pg/mL, 1.20 ng/mL, and 0.07 ng/mL respectively. Those levels were 3.65 ng/mL, 68.25 pg/mL, 51.72 ng/mL, and 14.70 ng/mL respectively after Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) stimulation. The levels of her anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) was 22.97 ng/mL, and inhibin B (INH-B) was 274.4 pg/mL. The uterus and ovaries were not detected by Pelvic ultrasound and MRI. The chromosome showed 46, XY. Sex determination (SRY) gene detection showed normal. Androgen receptor (AR) gene detection showed negative. There was pathogenic mutation of 5α-reductase 2 (SRD5A2) gene in peripheral blood of the child and her parents. The penis grows 2 cm after 4 months of treatment with 2.5% DHT gel. Conclusion SRD5A2 is diagnosed mainly based on the increase of T/DHT after HCG stimulation experiment and it can be confirmed by detection of pathogenic SRD5A2 mutation.
