ObjectiveTo investigate the intervention of level of atorvastatin calcium tablets (lipitor) on soluble CD40 (CD40L) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with angina.Methods 65 patients with coronary heart disease were divided into stable angina (SA group,n= 30) and unstable angina (UA group,n= 35).The vein blood was collected in the hospitalized morning,2,4,6 weeks after treatment and serum levels of hs-CRP and CD40L were measured and compared between the two groups.ResultsThe levels of soluable CD40L [(20.52± 2.91)μg/L] and CRP [(7.96±1.69) mg/L] in UA group were higher than SA group [(7.96±-1.35) tg/L and ( 1.58 ± 0.91 ) mg/L] (t = 21.705、18.493,both P＜ 0.05) before treatment,and after treatment,their levels in the two groups were significantly lower than pre-treatment (P＜0.01).ConclusionsCD40L and hs-CRP may involved in the pathophysiology of unstable angina process and can be used as an indicator reflecting vulnerable plaque.Lipitor might enhance stability of atherosclerotic plaque and prevent acute coronary events by reducing levels of CD40L and hs-CRP.

Since the early symptoms are very hidden,most of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC)have occurred metastasis when diagnosed.Recently,chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy is the major therapeutic strategy for metastatic CRC and the high frequency activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway has been validated sharing a close relationship with the development of CRC,contributing important values for the diagnosis and therapy of CRC.

Purpose To construct a lentiviral ventor-mediated RNA interference of human midkine ( MK) gene and to provide the ba-sis for further experiment in vivo and in vitro. Methods Four RNAi sequences targeting human MK gene were designed, and cloned into the lentiviral vector to construct lentiviral vectors:GV115-MK-1, GV115-MK-2, GV115-MK-3 and GV115-MK-4. After transfec-tion into competent E. Coli bacteria, the candidate clones were identified by PCR and DNA sequencing. The titer of lentiviruses was determined after 293 T cells were co-transfected with GV115-MK, pHelper 1. 0 and pHelper 2. 0. The four kinds of recombinant lenti-viruses were used to infect human breast cancer cell MDA-MB-231, and the expression levels of MK mRNA were detected by real-time PCR. Results PCR analysis and DNA sequencing confirmed that the four inserted MK RNAi sequences were corrected. Strong green fluorescence was observed in the 293 T cells under the fluorescent microscope after co-transfection. The titer of the concentrated virus was 6 × 108 , 5 × 108 , 5 × 108 and 6 × 108 TU/ml, respectively. The MK expression in MDA-MB-231 cells infected with lentiviral vec-tors GV115-MK-1 was decreased by 87. 2% (P<0. 05). Conclusion Lentiviral RNAi vector for MK gene is successfully construc-ted, and it could effectively inhibit the expression of MK gene in MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro.

Purpose To observe the effect of MK on proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial HU-VECs cells and to explore the role of MK in tumor angiogenesis. Methods siRNA targeting MK was used to downregulate MK expres-sion in human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. Then, the experiment was divided into three groups: the untreated group, the empty vector transfection group and MK gene interference group. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the endothelial cells proliferation, tr-answell method was for detection of endothelial cell migration numbers, and matrigel in vitro small tube formation assay was used to sur-vey the state of tube formation. Expression of MK in siRNA transfection was identified by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results The MK gene interference group showed lower cell proliferation activity, less number of migration of cells and tube formation than the other two groups (P<0. 05). Conclusion Low-expressed MK in human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 can inhibit proliferation, mi-gration and angiogenesis of endothelial cells, which shows that MK may play an important role in tumor angiogenesis.

Objective To investigate the adjustment and value of lymphocyte G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2) protein levels in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Methods Forty-two patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP), 44 patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP), 43 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and 46 patients with normal coronary angiography (NCA) in hospital were enrolled in this study. Lymphocyte GRK2 protein levels were analyzed by Western blot in 24 h after admitted to hospital. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis was performed based on 24 h Holter electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring. Cardiac functions were measured using ultrasonic cardiogram. The results were compared and the relationship between GRK2 protein levels and HRV, cardiac functions index was analyzed. Results The level of lymphocyte GRK2 in AMI group, UAP group, SAP group and NCA group was (209.8 ± 63.9)%, (165.6 ± 60.2)%, (131.7 ± 51.8)% and (125.3 ± 50.6)%. The levels of lymphocyte GRK2 in AMI group and UAP group was significantly higher than that in SAP group and NCA group .Moreover, the level of GRK2 was the highest in AMI group, and there were significant differences (P<0.01). The level of lymphocyte GRK2 had negative correlation with high frequency(HF), low frequency(LF), LF/HF, standard deviation NN interval (SDNN), standard deviation of the average normal RR interval for 5-minute segments (SDNNI) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (r =-0.52,-0.47,-0.53,-0.56,-0.49,-0.51, P < 0.01). Conclusions The rise of lymphocyte GRK2 protein levels is significantly associated with increased sympathetic nerve excitability and deterioration of cardiac function.
