ObjectiveTo evaluate the accuracy of measurement of left ventricular(LV) volume and function in coronary heart disease(CHD) by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI).Methods LV end diastolic volume(EDV),LV end systolic volume(ESV) and LV ejection fraction(EF) were measured with RT-3DE in patients with CHD ( n =37) and in the control ( n =30).The results measured by RT 3DE were compared with those of CMRI.The diagnostic value of RT-3DE was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve.Results Compared with that measured by CMRI,EDV,ESV and EF by RT 3DE( P ＞0.05) were almost similar as that in the control.Area under ROC curve of in EDV and ESV were 0.912 and 0.944 in the control.However,EDV determined by RT-3DE was smaller than that by CMRI( P ＜0.05) in CHD group.A difference (10.95 ± 31.26 ml) was existed in EDV between the two methods.ESV measured by RT-3DE was smaller than that calculated by CMRI( P ＞0.05) with a mean differance of (3.17 ± 16.42)ml in CHD group.EF by RT-3DE( P ＞0.05)was almost as same as that by CMRI in CHD group,with a mean difference of (1.54 ± 11.85)％.The area under ROC curve of EDV and ESV were 0.834 and 0.873 in CHD group and their diagnostic performance was moderate.ConclusionsMeasurment of LV volume and function by RT 3DE in control was more acurrate than that in CHD.In the cases of LV remodeling in patients with CHD,RT-3DE would underestimate the LV volume.

Objective To investigate the effect of protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) on lipid metabolism in the PP5 knockout (KO) mice.Methods Male PP5 KO and wild type (WT) mice at the age of 6 weeks were used in this study. In order to study the effect of high fat diet ( HFD) feeding, the body weight was measured.The liver histology was examined by HE and oil red O staining.To further verify PP5 functions in the adipogenesis, in vitro experiment was carried out using mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF).Western blotting and real-time PCR were performed to quantified the expression of lipid metabolism-related genes in the liver tissues.Results Compared with the WT mice, the body weight gain was slower in the KO mice.The size of the lipid droplets was smaller and the quantity was less in the KO mouse liver tissue.In vitro study revealed that the KO mouse MEF cells showed less differentiated adipocytes with smaller lipid droplets than the WT MEF cells.This observation was further confirmed by detecting the expression of adipogenesis-related genes in the HFD liver.The markers of adipocyte differentiation, such as CD36, AP2, PPARγ2, and Glut4, were significantly decreased, while energy expenditure-related markers, such as phosphorylation of GR and expression of UCP1, were significantly increased.Conclusions Protein phosphatase 5 may play a regulatory role in the mouse lipid metabolism through regulating the de-phosphorylation of p-GR and enhancing the expression of UCP1.

PurposeTo explore the left ventricle flow propagation process in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) using velocity flow mapping. Materials and Methods Patients with CHF (n=25) were selected as CHF group. Healthy subjects (n=28) were chosen as the control group. Flow reversal interval (FRI), flow reversal rate (FRR), corrected flow reversal rate (CFRI) and flow rate in peak ejection (FRPE) were measured. Parameters related to the vortex in CHF group were compared with that in the control group. Results Compared with the control group, FRI was longer [(71±13) msvs. (113±30) ms, P<0.05], FRR and FRPE were lower [(46.85±21.35) cm2/svs. (27.90±16.77) cm2/s;(74.54±9.10) cm2/svs. (41.12±17.25) cm2/s,P<0.05] in CHF group. FRI and CFRI were positively correlated with the Tei index (r=0.812 and 0.849,P<0.01). FRI was negatively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO, CI (r=-0.646--0.515,P<0.05 orP<0.01). CFRI was negatively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=-0.685--0.456,P<0.05 orP<0.01); FRR was negatively correlated with Tei index (r=-0.604,P<0.05), and was positively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=0.503-0.812,P<0.05 orP<0.01);FRPE was negatively correlated with Tei index (r=-0.734,P<0.01), and were positively correlated with LVEF, FS, SV, CO and CI (r=0.557-0.776,P<0.05 orP<0.01).Conclusion Velocity flow mapping can demonstratecardiac hydromechanics in patients with chronic heart failure. The heart blood flow direction reversal efficiency may be a new method for diagnosis and treatment evaluation.

Objective:To inspect the relationship between the therapeutic effect of DHA on lupus nephritis and the negative immune regulation of TLR4/NF-κB signal pathway which was induced by SIGIRR;in vitro,to observe the effect of DHA on damaged HK-2 cell.Methods: In vivo,MRL/lpr mice were divided in model group,DHA groups(25,50,100 mg/kg),positive group (prednisone,5 mg/kg),and C57BL/6 mice were taken as control group.Administrate drugs daily for 12 weeks.Examine the changes in renal pathology;the expression of SIGIRR,IRAK1,TRAF6 in kidneys were determined by Western blot.In vitro,treat human renal tubular epithelial cell HK-2 cells with LPS ,and co-culture cells with DHA at the concentration of 0.67 μg/ml to 6.00 μg/ml for 6 h, 12 h and 24 h.Detect SIGIRR expression by Western blot and the level of IL-6 and CCL2 of HK-2 cells by ELISA.Results:In vivo, renal pathology revealed that kidneys of model group were damaged , while treatment with 100 mg/kg DHA alleviated renal injury.Compared to model group ,SIGIRR expression of DHA 100 mg/kg group increased a little ,and the expression of this protein had a tendency to increase with the augment of DHA dose .In vitro,DHA treatment reduced secretion of CCL 2 in HK-2 cells,and treatment of 0.67 μg/ml DHA for 24 h increased SIGIRR expression significantly , which also showed a growing expression with time.Conclusion:DHA could inhibit development of mouse lupus nephritis through increasing SIGIRR expression which inhibited TLR4/NF-κB signal pathway;DHA inhibited CCL2 secretion of HK-2 cells which were irritated by LPS ,and it may be associated with increased expression of SIGIRR .
