ObjectiveTo explore the role and mechanism of NGAL in the process of hypoxia/ reoxygenation (H/R) injury in human renal tubular epithelial cell (HK-2).MethodsThe H/R model of HK-2 cells was established in vitro (oxygen concentration ＜ 0.1％ ).The expressions of NGAL in the cells of H/R group and control group were determined by WB and real-time RT-PCR.The cell models were treated with 50,100,200,400 and 1 000 ng/ml of recombinant NGAL respectively.Cell proliferation and apoptosis of the treated groups and control group were detected by the MTT assay and Annexin V-FITC/PI staining to determine the appropriate NGAL concentration.The cell cycle distributions in the H/R group,NGAL treated H/R group and control group were detected by flow cytometry,and the expressions of bax/bcl-2 and caspase-3 were measured by real-time RT-PCR.The experiments were triplicated to obtain the mean values.Results The protein expression of NGAL/actin in H/R group (5.875 ±0.081 ) was higher than that of the control group ( 1.513 ±0.032),the differences between the two groups had statistic significance (t =96.89,P ＜0.05). While the gene expressions of NGAL/actin in HL/R groups (12.32 ± 1.27 ) and control group ( 1.00 ±0.00) had statistical significance of difference ( t =15.40,P ＜ 0.05 ).In MTT assay,the absorption values of the H/R group and control group were 0.97 ± 0.03 and 0.56 ± 0.04,the differences had statistic significance( t =18.680,P ＜ 0.05 ).And the absorption value of cells treated with different concentrations of NGAL (50,100,200,400,1 000 ng/ml) were 0.56±0.04,0.53 ±0.03,0.56 ±0.04,0.53 ± 0.03,0.54 ± 0.02,respectively.There were no significant differences between the H/R group and NGAL treated groups ( F =0.978,P ＞ 0.05 ),but the differences of absorption values in the control group and other groups had statistical significance ( F =105.20,P ＜ 0.05 ).The ratios of early apoptotic cells ( Annexin V positive,PI negative) in the control group and the H/R group were ( 1.0 ±0.2) ％ and ( 27.6 ± 1.4 ) ％ respectively with a statistical significance of difference ( t =33.590,P ＜0.05 ).After the treatment of NGAL ( 50,100 ng/ml),the ratios were ( 27.8 ± 1.1 ) ％ and ( 26.4 ±1.3 ) ％ and there were no significant differences compared to the H/R group ( t =0.250,P ＞ 0.05 ).When the H/R model was treated with 200 ng/ml of NGAL,the ratio of early apoptotic cells dropped to ( 19.4 ± 0.6) ％,leading to a statistical significance of difference ( t =10.350,P ＜ 0.05 ).However,in the H/R model treated with high concentration of NGAL (400,1 000 ng/ml),the ratios were ( 19.3 ± 1.1 )％ and ( 18.9 ±0.5 ) ％,which had no significant differences compared to the cells treated with 200 ng/ml of NGAL (t =0.130,0.630; P ＞0.05).Thus the study chose 200 ng/ml as the appropriate treating concentration of NGAL.In the control group,H/R group and 200 ng/ml,NGAL treated HR group,PI values were (30.2 ±0.4)％,(22.1 ± 2.7 )％ and (23.2 ± 3.7 )％ respectively.There were no significant differences between the H/R group and NGAL treated group (t =0.510,P ＞0.05),but there was still statistical significance in difference among the control group and the treated groups ( F =8.28,P ＜ 0.05 ).The ratio of bax/bcl-2 and the expression of caspase-3 detected by real-time RT-PCR were 1.00 ± 0.00,1.00 ± 0.00 in the control group,5.83 ±0.33,8.13 ±0.20 in the H/R group and 2.52 ±0.07,1.89 ±0.02 in the NGAL treated H/R group.The bax/bcl-2 ( F =485.30,P ＜ 0.05 ) and caspase-3 ( F =3456.78,P ＜ 0.05 ) did have statistical significances of difference among the three groups.ConclusionsNGAL acts as a protective factor against hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by regulating pro-apoptotic genes.It provides a new idea and evidences for the treatment of AKI caused by ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To observe the effects of recombinant staphylokinase (r-SAK) on platelet activation parameters in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) by intravenous thrombolysis in order to investigate the clinical thrombolytic efficacy of r-SAK therapy in AMI comparing with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator(rt-PA) therapy.Methods Thirty-three patients with AMI within 12 h after the onset were selected and divided randomly into the r-SAK therapy group(n=17) and rt-PA therapy group(n=16).Coronary artery angiography(CAG) was performed 90 min after thrombolytic therapy in patients.Thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT) and alpha granule membrane protein(GMP-140) were measured by similar commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results In r-SAK group and rt-PA group,the plasma contents of GMP-140 2 h after thrombolytic therapy were significantly higher than before therapy(P0.05).In rt-PA group,the plasma content of TAT 2 h after thrombolytic therapy increased significantly(P0.05).) Conclusion r-SAK has similar effect with rt-PA and it will become available for highly fibrin-selective thrombolytic therapy of AMI.Thrombolytic treatment with r-SAK can improve the injury of myocardial microperfusion.

Antiphospholipid syndrome(APS) is a autoimmune system disorder caused by thrombosis and is usually accompanied with persistent positive. Antiphospholipid antibodies profiles(aPLs) is the key to diagnosing APS. The most frequently detectable aPLs in current clinical applications are anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL), anti-β2 glycoprotein Ⅰantibodies (anti-β2 GPI), and lupus anticoagulant (LA).However, it is found that the current laboratory diagnostic standard for APS based on these three aPL have many defects. The standard can′t meet the clinical needs. In this article, the research and development of antiphospholipid antibody in recent years are summarized, and the clinical value of non-classified standard antibodies such as IgA antibody isotype and anti-domain 1 β2-glycoprotein I antibody are reviewed.

Objective:To study the expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway related proteins Wnt1 and β-catenin protein in gingival tissues of the patients with drug-induced gingival overgrowth(DGO) caused by nifedipine.Methods:Wnt1 and β-catenin expression were tested with Western Blot and RT-PCR in gingival tissues of 10 cases of DGO induced by nifedipine,10 cases of high blood pressure with gingival hyperplasia(without use of any medicine) and 10 cases of healthy control.Results:In the gingival tissues of DGO group the levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin protein and mRNA were significantly higher than those of the healthy control group(P ＜ 0.05) and the high blood pressure group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:The levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin are increased in nifedipine induced gingival hyperplasia.The gingival hyperplasia may be caused by the promotion of gingival fibroblast proliferation through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND: The application of adipose derived stromal cells to tissue engineering has been more and more popular around the world. Compatibility of scaffold material is the key point for its further research.OBJECTIVE: To determine the growth rules of rabbit adipose-derived stromal cells with polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA).DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An in vitro study was performed at the Institute of Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology Hospital,Fudan University and Shanghai Tissue Engineering Center from September 2007 to March 2009.MATERIALS: Six female New Zealand rabbits aged six months were used for extraction of adipose-derived stromal cells. PLGA was provided by Sigma, USA.METHODS: Adipose tissue was harvested from the nape fat pad of the rabbits following anesthesia. Primary cultured cells were established using type I collagenase and cell cultures were maintained with DMEM containing 10% volume fraction of fetal bovine serum. Cells were passaged when 80% was confluent. The fourth passages of cells were utilized for the study. PLGA consisted of polylactic acid and polyglycolic acid as the ratio of 7:3, and the relative molecular mass was 104900.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Initially, the adherent rate of cells to scaffold was detected. After one week co-culture, the scaffold bearing adipose-derived stromal cells labeled with Dio agent were investigated by fluorescence inverse microscope,scanning electron microscopy and laser scanning microscope.RESULTS: The best adherent rate of adipose-derived stromal cells with PLGA reached 99%. After one-week-incubation in vitro,cells of fiber-shaped or ovule-shaped proliferated well and exhibited stratified growth on the surface of PLGA scaffold. In addition,it also secreted visible extracellular matrices, which could be examined by scanning electron microscopic examination.Meanwhile, the adipose-derived stromal cells grew well and distributed equably inside the PLGA in terms of the investigation with laser scanning microscope.CONCLUSION: The compatibility of adipose-derived stromal cells to PLGA in vitro was well.

In the process of positron emission tomography (PET) data acquiring, respiratory motion reduces the quality of PET imaging. In this paper, we present a correction method using three level grids B-spline elastic method to correct denoised and reorganized sinograms for respiratory motion correction. Using GATE simulates NCAT respiratory motion model to generate raw data which are used in experiment, the experiment results showed a significantly improved respiratory image with higher quality of PET, and the motion blur and structural information were fixed. The results proved the method of this paper would be effective for the elastic registration.

Objective To study the clinical significance of a novel marker of platelet clumps count provided by hematology analyzer in differentiating true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia (EDTA-PTCP). Methods Samples from 65 cases of thrombocytopenia (including 15 EDTA-PCTP samples and 50 random samples of true thrombocytopenia) and 50 healthy controls were analyzed using hematology analyzers, and samples with low platelet counts were checked by replacing citric acid and using manual microscope observation to identify true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-PTCP. A novel marker of platelet clumps count was used to differentiate the two diseases for samples anficoagulated with EDTA or citric acid. Results In 65 patients with thrombocytopenia, platelet counts were (48±11)×109/L detected by automatic hematology analyzers. Fifty of 65 cases were true thrombocytopenia which showed low platelet counts [(48±10)×109/L by automated analyzer and (46±11)×109/L by manual assay]. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.26, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts were 86±15. No platelet clamps were detected under microscope. The other 15 cases were EDTA-PTCP [platelet counts were (48±12)×109/L and platelet clumps counts (840±184) were increased significantly by automated analyzer and using EDTA anticoagulant] which showed obviously platelet clumps and no less platelet counts under microscope. After replacing citric acid, platelet counts [(141±13)×109/L by automated analyzer and (134±17)×109/L by manual microscope assay] were increased significantly. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.29, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts (75±12) were decreased obviously compared with EDTA anticoagulant method (t=-6.82, P<0.001). No platelet clumps were detected under microscope. Conclusion Platelet clumps counts may be a useful clinical indicator for monitoring of platelet aggregates, especially for EDTA-PTCP caused by platelet clumping.

Objective To investigate the biocompatibility and biodegradability of mini-implants of PLA-based composites in experimental animals by histomorphometry, and to study its clinical application in orthodontic treatment. Methods Six adult male Beagle dogs were randomly divided into 3 groups, a total of 72 mini-implants were implanted to the mandibular. Two Beagle dogs were sacrificed at 2 months、4 months and 6 months after surgery. Animals were intramuscularly injected with tetracycline on 14 and 4 days before sacrifice. Mandibular specimens and the surfaces of mini-implants were examined with Cone beam CT, CBCT and Scanning Electronic Microscopy and SEM respectively. Histopathologocal changes were observed with toluidine blue staining and HE staining. Results The results of CBCT assay showed that the mini-implants were gradually radiopacity with the extension of time. SEM assay showed that the morphology of mini-implants surface was significantly changed;micro-implants degradation occured gradually.New bone formation was observed around the micro-implants within 10 days.Toluidine blue staining showed the formation of new bone around the mini-implants. However, the inflamma-tion around the implants was not observed. Conclusion The biocompatibility of biodegradable mini-implant is good. This mini-implant is biodegradable in vivo and can promote the formation of the surrounding bone tissue.
