Objective To investigate effects of complement C5a receptor and P38-MAPK on myocardial injury brought about by septic shock in rats. Method The early septic shock models were established by the method of cecal ligature and incision (CLI). A total of 30 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly( random number) divided into normal control group ( n = 6 ) and model group ( n = 24 ) and the model group was further 12 hours later divided into 12 h subgroup (n = 12) and 24 h subgroup (n = 12). The arterial blood samples were collected 12 hours later for detecting the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK), and then the rats were sacrificed and the myocardial tissues were taken to assay the expressions of C5a receptor and P38-MAPK by using immunohistochemistry after HE staining. And the above procedure as did in 12 h subgroup was done 24 hours later. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of LDH and CK in rats of Model group were significantly higher (P ＜ 0. 05). There were significant differences in LDH and CK between 24 h subgroup and 12 h subgroup [(2 568.9 ± 280) vs. (2 201.2 ± 149)] and [(5 029.7±458) vs. (2 629.4±140)] ,P＜0. 05, P＜0.05. The analysis of C5aR and P38-MAPK gray values showed that there were significant differences between the model group and normal control group [(702.77 ±122) vs. (388.36±113)], P＜0. 05 and [(646.40±181) vs. (307.32 ±61)] ,P＜0.05,and those differences also found between the 24 h subgroup and 12 h subgroup. There was a significant positive correlation between C5aR and P38-MAPK (P＜0.05 ), and also the P38-MAPK had significant positive relationships with LDH(P＜0.05) and CK (P＜0.05). Conclusions The C5aR strongly potentiates the P38-MAPK to induce myocardial injury by septic shock.

Objective To analyze the metabolic profile in serum between normal and orthotopic xenograft nude mice burdened with three human pancreatic cancer cell lines,which were differentiated differently.Methods Human pancreatic cancer lines SW1990,BxPC-3 and Panc-1 were subcutaneously injected into the nude mice,respectively.When the tumor volume reached 1.0 cm3,the nude mice were euthanized and the tumor tissues were removed and implanted to the pancreas to establish the orthotopic xenograft mice model.The serum from three orthotopic xenograft tumor nude mice and the normal controls were collected and then analyzed by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.Results The three orthotopic xenograft nude mice models were successfully established.In SW1990,BxPC-3 and Panc-1 group,the orthotopic xenograft tumor formation rate was 79％ (11/14),93％ (13/14) and 86％ (12/14),while the mortality was 7％ (1/14),0 and 7％ (1/14),respectively.Compared with control group,the content of metabolites in the serum of orthotopic xenograft tumor nude mice was increased including creatine,alanine,glutamine,1-methylhistidine,isoleucine,lactate,phenylalanine,tryptophan and valine,but the glycerolphosphocholine (GPC) and glucose levels were reduced.As the tumors progressed to be more malignant,the content of valine and isoleucine tended to increase.Conclusions The establishment of the orthotopic implantation tumor nude mice model was stable and reliable with high tumor formation rate.Obvious metabolic differences of glucose,lipid and amino acids were observed between normal and human pancreatic cancer tumor burdening nude mice models.The common metabolic features identified in all three nude mice models burdened with human pancreatic cancer could be used as the potential markers for diagnosing human pancreatic cancer.

Objective: To explore the impact of ticagrelor on myocardial microcirculation in patients of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 80 NSTEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2015-03 to 2015-12 were enrolled. All patients received coronary angiography (CAG) and PCI, they were randomly divided into 2 groups: ticagrelor (TA) group and clopidogrel (CA) group, n=40 in each group. The baseline condition, PCI related parameters, plasma levels of SOD, MDA at pre- and 24h, 72h post-PCI were compared, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days after PCI was also compared between 2 groups. Results: The baseline condition, proportion of infarction-related vessels, average length and diameter of implanted stents were similar between 2 groups, all P>0.05. Compared with CA group, TA group had the less post-operative CTFC in LAD and RCA, P<0.05; while CTFC in LCX was similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The ratios of acute pre-operative, post-operative TIMI grade 3 and slow flow incidence were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. The peak values of CK-MB and cTnI in TA group were lower than CA group, P<0.05. Compared with baseline condition, MDA levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were increased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the lower MDA level at 24h post-operation, P=0.023, MAD was further reduced at 72h post-operation in TA group, P=0.043. Compared with baseline condition, SOD levels at 24h and 72h post-operation were decreased in both groups, all P<0.001; compared with CA group, TA group had the higher SOD level at 24h post-operation, P=0.013, SOD was elevated at 72h post-operation in both groups, the elevation was more obvious in TA group, P=0.049. The incidence of MACE was similar between 2 groups within 30 days of PCI,. Conclusion: Ticagrelor could improve myocardial microcirculation in NSTEMI patients after PCI; it was safe and without obvious adverse effects.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Ala-Gln induced heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expression on myocardial ifbrosis and connexin43 (Cx43) remodeling in experimental rats’ model.
Methods: A total of 32 SPF male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:①Control group,②Model group, the rats received isoprenaline (ISO) 5m/(kg·d),③Intervention group, the rats received ISO+Ala-Gln 0.75mg/(kg·d),④Quercetin group, the rats received ISO+quercetin 100mg/(kg·d)+Ala-Gln+DMSO. n=8 in each group. All animals were treated for 7 days and killed in 4 weeks for relevant examinations. HE and Masson staining was conducted to observe myocardial ifbrosis, then calculate collagen volume fraction; immunohistochemistry was applied to measure myocardial HSP70 expression,
extracellular signal regulated kinase (p-ERK1/2) and Cx43 distribution, then conduct semi-quantitative analysis by speciifc soft ware.
Results: HE and Masson staining indicated that Control group had no obvious myocardial ifbrosis, Model group and Quercetin group had obvious ifbrosis, and Intervention group showed less ifbrosis than the other 2 groups, all P<0.01. The fibrosis level was similar between Intervention group and Control group, P>0.05. The myocardial HSP70 expression was similar among Control, Model and Quercetin groups, P>0.05, while HSP70 expression was signiifcantly higher in Intervention group than the other 3 groups, all P<0.01. The myocardial p-ERK1/2 level was lower in Intervention group than Model and Quercetin groups, all P<0.01. The myocardial Cx43 level was similar between Control group and Intervention group with linear distribution, while it was higher in Intervention group than Model and Quercetin groups with disordered distribution, all P<0.01.
Conclusion: Ala-Gln inducing the higher expression of HSP70, which may reduce myocardial ifbrosis in experimental rats, it could be because of HSP70 down regulating p-ERK1/2 expression and inhibiting ERK signaling pathway.
