High performance liquid chromatography-time-off-flight mass spectrometer (HPLC-TOFMS) technology coupled with partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) processed by SIMCA-P software was applied to investigate serum endogenous metabolites alternations of valsartan in spontaneous hypertension rats (SHR). And MetPA platform was used to connect identified potential biomarkers in corresponding metabolic pathways to find possible therapeutic mechanism of valsartan. Valsartan significantly declined the blood pressure of SHRs (P < 0.05) at fourth week. The metabolic profiling significantly changed and four metabolites involved in G protein-coupled pathway were identified. Metabolomics is able to detect holistic and microcosmic alternations in organism, so as to elucidate therapeutic mechanism of drugs.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of endotoxin pretreatment on hippocampal neurons in rat forebrain following ischemia reperfusion and its possible mechanism. Methods Rat forebrain ischemia reperfusion model was used. The effects of endotoxin pretreatment on the changes of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH PX) and malondialdehyde (MDA) activities and the neuron count in CA1 region were observed. Results Pretreament with endotoxin before cerebral ischemia enhanced the activities of SOD and GSH PX but decreased MDA level and the number of ischemic neurons in CA1 region. Conclusion Endotoxin pretreatment can protect the neurons in rat forebrain against ischemia reperfusion injury. The mechanism may be associated with the enhancement of endogenous antioxidant activity in central nervous system.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis in patients with hepatocarcinoma by examining the expression of α-fetoprotein (AFP) and des γ prothrombin (DCP).Methods Retrospectively analyzed the expression of AFP and DCP in 105 patients received curative hepatectomy.Divided the patients into three groups as follow:the tumor markers were both negative pre-and post-operation (Group N) ; the tumor markers decreased to normal after operation (Group D) ; the tumor markers kept positive or decreased but still higher positive after operation (Group P).Then combined the two markers and divided the patients into 4 groups:two markers both negative(AFP + DCP +)(Group A) ; AFP + DCP-(Group B) ; AFP-DCP + (Group C) ; AFP-DCP-(Group D).Results High AFP and DCP levels were significantly associated with poor tumor-free and overall survival.The presence of large size and advanced stage were significantly associated with Group P.Overall survival in the AFP-N group was significantly better than that of other groups and overall survival in DCP-N group were significantly better than that of the P group.After the combination,Group A had the best overall and tumor free survival rate while the D group had the worst.The differences between B and C group were not significant.Conclusions AFP and DCP can be both used solely as tumor markers and the expressions of them are associated with the prognosis.The combination of two markers can be used for better prediction of hepatocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the effects of large dose of atorvastatin on the expression of Sprouty-1 in CD4 + T lymphocytes from unstable angina patients during perioperative period of PCI.Methods A total of 52 unstable angina patients enrolled were divided randomly (random number) into large-dose atorvastatin (80 mg/d,n =26) pretreated group and moderate-dose atorvastatin (20 mg/d,n =26) pretreated group.Circulating CD4 + T cells were obtained by magnetic cell sorting system (MACS) before PCI and 18-24h after PCI.For detecting the gene expression,the reverse transcription fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to measure the expression of Sprouty-1 mRNA in CD4 + T lymphocyte.The level of Sprouty-1 protein was detected with Western blot analysis and IL-2 was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results ①Compared with large-dose group before PCI,the expression of Sprouty-1 mRNA and Sprouty-1 protein levels were dramatically increased in large-dose group after PCI (P < 0.05).②Compared with moderate-dose group before PCI,the expression of Sprouty-1 mRNA and protein levels were slightly increased in moderate-dose group after PCI,but there was no statistical significance (P > 0.05).③Compared with large-dose group before PCI,the serum level of IL-2 was decreased in large-dose group after PCI (P < 0.05).Whereas the serum level of IL-2 was slightly increased in moderate-dose group after PCI compared to moderate-dose group before PCI,there was still no statistical significance (P > 0.05).Conclusions Large-dose atorvastatin pretreatment reduced post-PCI myocardial inflammation through up-regulating the expression of Sprouty-1 mRNA and level of Sprouty-1 protein in CD4 + T lymphocytes.

The aimed of this study was to prepare stabilized thiomers to overcome the poor stability character of traditional thiomers. Poly(acrylic acid)-cysteine (PAA-Cys) was synthesized by conjugating cysteine with poly(acrylic acid) and poly(acrylic acid)-cysteine-6-mercaptonicotinic acid (PAA-Cys-6MNA, stabilized thiomers) was synthesized by grafting a protecting group 6-mercaptonicotinic acid (6MNA) with PAA-Cys. The free thiol of PAA-Cys was determined by Ellmann's reagent method and the ratio of 6MNA coupled was determined by glutathione reduction method. The study of permeation enhancement and stabilized function was conducted by using Franz diffusion cell method, with fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran (FD4) used as model drug. The influence of polymers on tight junctions of Caco-2 cell monolayer was detected with laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscope. The results indicated that both PAA-Cys and PAA-Cys-6MNA could promote the permeation of FD4 across excised rat intestine, and the permeation function of PAA-Cys-6MNA was not influence by the pH of the storage environment and the oxidation of air after the protecting group 6MNA was grafted. The distribution of tight junction protein of Caco-2 cell monolayer F-actin was influenced after incubation with PAA-Cys and PAA-Cys-6MNA. In conclusion, stabilized thiomers (PAA-Cys-6MNA) maintained the permeation function compared with the traditional thiomers (PAA-Cys) and its stability was improved. The mechanism of the permeation enhancement function of the polymers might be related to their influence on tight junction relating proteins of cells.
