Objective To investigate the impact of hypoxia on the expression of early growth response-1 (Egr-1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in mouse aorta,and to probe the underlying mechanism involving receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE).Methods 3-month-old C57BL/6 mice were subjected to hypoxia [(6.0±0.5) % oxygen] to establish the global hypoxia model(n=6 rats for each).Aortas were dissected,Egr-1 mRNA and MCP-1 mRNA were detected by real time RT-PCR,Egr-1 and RAGE proteins were tested by Western blot,and Egr-1 DNA binding activity was assayed by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA).For blockade of RAGE,mice were pretreated with soluble RAGE (sRAGE) for 1 h by intra-peritoneal injection before they were exposed to hypoxia.Mice with normoxia were used as controls.Results After 30 minutes of hypoxic exposure,Egr-1 mRNA in aorta was increased to (28.3±0.9)folds compared with normoxic controls (F=617.17,P<0.01),and the induction persisted for at least 3 hours.After 45 minutes of hypoxic exposure,Egr-1 proteins in aorta was increased to (5.7 ± 0.3) folds compared with normoxic controls (F =57.18,P< 0.01); the enhanced DNA binding activity of Egr-1 by hypoxia was attenuated by pretreatment with anti-Egr-1 lgG.After 4 hours of hypoxic exposure,MCP-1 mRNA expression in aorta was increased to(4.0±0.3)folds compared with normoxic controls (F=30.68,P<0.01).RAGE antigen was increased significantly within 30 minutes of hypoxic exposure,with the peak at 15 minutes; hypoxia-induced Egr-1 mRNA expression was significantly attenuated by pretreatment with sRAGE (3.3 ± 0.2) folds compared with normoxic controls (F =30.20,P<0.01).Conclusions Hypoxia significantly induces Egr-1 and MCP-1 upregulation expressions in mouse aorta,and blockade of RAGE significantly attenuates hypoxia-induced Egr-1 expression.Thcsc findings suggest RAGE signaling is involved in hypoxia-induced vascular inflammatory stress,and highlight this receptor as a potential therapeutic target to protect tissues injured by hypoxia.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of prostatil combined with diosmin on the elderly patients with chronic prostatitis (CP) and the macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) and macrophage inflammatory protein-lα (MIP-lα) in prostate fluid and serum.Methods:126 cases of elderly patients with CP in our hospital fiom January 2015 to September 2016 were selected and randomly divided into two groups.Prostatil combined with diosmin were provided to the patients in observation groups (63 cases) while the control group (63 cases) was treated by prostatil alone.The clinical effect,MIP-2,MIP-1α levels in the prostate fluid and serum before and after therapy as well as the incidence of adverse reactions were observed and compared between two groups.Results:At 12 weeks after treatment,the total effective rate of observation group was 93.7%,which was obviously higher than that of the control group (81.0%,P<0.05).The MIP-2 and MIP-1α levels in prostate fluid and serum of both groups at 12 weeks after therapy were significantly lower than those before therapy (P<0.01),which were significantly lower in the observation group than those of the control group at the same time (P<0.01).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion:Prostatil combined with diosmin could more safely and effectively improve the clinical efficacy in the treatment of elderly patients with CP/CPPS,which might be related to reduce the levels ofMIP-2,MIP-lα in serum and prostatic fluid.

Objective: To evaluate the role of the MAPK subtypes (p38MAPK, ERK and JNK) in ANG Ⅱ induced apoptosis of cultured human podocytes. Methods: The cultured podocytes were incubated in media containing either vehicle, SB202190(5 ?mol/L, an inhibitor of p38MAPK), PD98059 (1 ?mol/L, an inhibitor of ERK), SP600125 (5 ?mol/L, an inhibitor of JNK), ANG Ⅱ (10 -8 mol/L) with or without SB202190、PD98059 and SP600125 for 18 hours; the cells were assayed for apoptosis by morphologic staining with H 33342 and propidium iodide and DNA fragmentation assays; the cell proteins were probed for phosphorylated MAPKs to determine the activation of specific MAPK subtypes. Results: ANG Ⅱ promoted podocyte apoptosis in a time and dose dependent manner; ANG Ⅱ stimulated p38MAPK, but inhibited JNK; SB202190 inhibited both ANG Ⅱ induced podocyte apoptosis and p38MAPK phosphorylation; Inhibition of ERK by PD98059 had no effect on ANG Ⅱ induced cell apoptosis. Conclusion: ANG Ⅱ induced apoptosis through stimulation of p38MAPK and inhibition of JNK in human podocytes.

Objective To investigate the radiobiological effects of radiation with different dose rates on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE-2 treated with or without a poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor,olaparib.Methods The concentration of olaparib used to treat cells equaled to the inhibition concentration IC10 of olaparib to CNE-2 cells.The CNE-2 cells were divided into acute radiotherapy (RT) group,fractionated radiotherapy (FRT) group,olaparib + RT group,and olaparib + FRT group.All groups were exposed to radiation of 0,1,2,3,5,7,and 10 Gy at a dose rate of 3 Gy/min.The delivery time for each dose point was 4 min in RT and 30 min in FRT.The colony forming assay was used to evaluate the survival of CNE-2 cells at each dose point.The multi-target,single-hit model was used to fit the cell survival curves and the parameters,D0,Dq,and SF2,were calculated.At dose points of 0.1,and 2 Gy,western blot was used to determine the expression of PARP-1 in the RT group and the FRT group and γH2AX in each group.Immunofluorescence was used to evaluate the γH2AX focus formation.A single factor analysis of variance was used to compare the 4 groups,and two two compared with SNK-q test.Results The IC10 value of olaparib to CNE-2 cells was 4.0 μmoL/L.At dose points of 1 and 2 Gy,the PARP-1 expression was significantly higher in the FRT group than in the RT group (P=0.029,0.022),while the γH2AX focus number was significantly smaller in the FRT group than in the other three groups (all P<0.05);compared with the RT group,the D0,Dq,and SF2 values in the FRT group were increased by 11.67%,15.78%,and 23.61%,respectively;compared with the FRT group,the D0,Dq,and SF2 values in the Olaparib+ FRT group decreased by 11.19%,6.44%,and 13.26%,respectively;there were no significant differences in above indices between the RT group,the Olaparib+RT group,and the Olaparib+FRT group.Conclusions For the same radiation dose,fractionation reduces the relative dose rate and weakens the radiobiological effects.lowdose olaparib can compromise the single strand break repair induced by the decline of the relative dose rate in a fractionated irradiation mode,which promotes the formation of double-strand break and improves the radiobiological effects.
