Objective:To detect the change of composition of immune cells in the spleen of miR-126 knockdown(miR-126KD) mice and preliminarily explore its significance .Methods: The expression level of miR-126 in spleens of miR-126KD mice was deter-mined by Realtime PCR.And the total number of splenocytes was calculated.The pathologic morphology change of the spleen was observed by HE staining.And the changes on proportion of DCs ,macrophages cells ,γδ T cells and NK T cells,CD3+T cells and its subgroup ,as well as CD19+B cells in spleens of miR-126KD mice were analyzed by Flow cytometry and calculated respectively.The level of phosphorylated AKt and NF-κB was analyzed by Western blot assay.Results:Compared with those of WT mice ,the expression level of miR-126 decreased obviously ( P<0.05 ) and the total number of cells increased obviously in spleen of miR-126 KD mice ( P<0.05).Moreover,the pathologic morphology of miR-126KD mice was significantly changed.The proportion and number of NK T cells in the inherent cells were significantly increased ( P<0.05 ) , but the proportion of Mφcells were significantly decreased ( P<0.05 ) . Meanwhile,the proportion and number of CD3+T cells and CD4+T cells in the adaptive immune cells were significantly increased (P<0.05),while the total number of CD19+B cells were significantly decreased (P<0.05).Last,the level of phosphorylation Akt and NF-κB increased obviously in spleen of miRNA-126 knockdown mice.Conclusion: Change obviously on the composition of immune cells subsets in the spleen of miRNA-126 knockdown mice ,which it may be related to the altered level of phosphorylated AKt and NF-κB and provides a preliminary experimental basis for the further exploring the roles of miR -126 in immune response.

Objective To compare the mid-term results of video-assisted pulmonary veins isolation and box-lesion for lone atrial fibrillation.Methods Between June 2010 to November 2012,80 lone atrial fibrillation(LAF) patients underwent minimally invasive surgical ablation in Beijing Anzhen Hospital,and all of them received left atrial appendage excision and Marshall ligament break in the surgery.Among them,37 cases were performed two epicardial ablation lines in order to created box-lesion based on PVI(14 paroxysmal AF and 23 persistent AF).Follow-up was finished after discharge.Results Mean follow-up was(18.8 ± 7.4) months,and 2 patients were died with non-cardiac disease.The success rate is 78.8％ (Paroxysmal AF 87.9％;Persistent AF 72.3％).In the paroxysmal AF patients,the success rate for PVI and Box lesion treatment was 84.6％ (11/13) and 92.9％ (13/14),P =0.45;in the persistent AF patients,the success rate for PVI and Box-lesion was 58.3％ (14/24) and 87.5％ (14/16),P =0.04.Conclusion Addition of epicedial ablation lines might increase the cure rate for lone AF therapy,especially for persistent AF.

Objective To conclude the preliminary results of aortic valve repair with autopericardium.Methods After routine median sternotomy the pericardium was isolated and immersed into the 0.6% glutaraldehyde immersion for 10 minutes, then rinsed off before use.Conventional extracorporeal circulation was established and diseased aortic valves were removed.The curves lengths between three commissures measured with the specific sizers.The corresponding size of the pericardial patchs was used to cut the new aortic leaflets.The continuous Johnson Prolene 4-0 sutures were used to fixed the new aortic valve leaflets to the anulus.Another new 4-0 prolene suture were used to fix the new three commissures outside the aortic wall with mat.The new mat stripes were used to fix the sinus in condition with the aortic sinus dilation or bileaflets malformation.Results Since 2015 October total 27 patients received aortic valve repair with autologous pericardium.The age was in the range of 27 to 60 years old including 18 female and 9 male.There were 7 cases diagnosed as aortic valve stenosis and 20 cases aortic insufficiency.And there were 3 cases bileaflets aortic valve deformity.The mean bypass time is(104±25)mins.Postoperative esophageal ultrasound showed good coaptation of the aortic valve without significant regurgitation.The mean transvalve gradient was(8.5±3.2)mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa).In the early stage one case diagnosed with aortic valve stenosis and regurgitation received monocusp repaired with autologous pericardial leave.But there was still moderate aortic regurgitation and had to receive the aortic valve replacement.All patients recovered well and were treated with Aspirin for 6 months.The followed up lasted for 3 to 13 months.Mean aortic occlusion time was(104±25) minutes.The patients were followed up for 3-13 months, the cardiac function and aortic valve function were stable, and no gradient increased.Conclusion It is relatively simple to perform the aortic valve repair with individual autologous pericardial sizer technique and the primary clinic results are satisfactory.It is worthy of further study and long-term follow-up.

Objective To investigate the clinical results of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technique during the peri-operative heart transplantation. Methods The clinical data of heart transplantations supported by the ECMO were retrospectively analyzed, including during the bridge to transplant, working as routine bypass in the operation room, and supporting the heart failure after surgery. Results Three 3 cases were supported with ECMO to extend the waiting time: 2cases died of multi organ failure during the waiting, and the third one received the heart transplant and the ECMO was successfully removed. Totally 12 cases of heart transplantation received the modified open style ECMO techniques replacing the routine bypass. The ECMO was removed after assistance for (38 ± 14) h. All the recipients except one death recovered well without right ventricular failure or obvious tricuspid regurgitation which was common after heart transplantation. Ten cases received ECMO support for the heart failure after the transplant. The initial application time ranged from 2 h to 2 days and lasted 43～176 h. One died of infection and two died of multi organ failure nothing to do with ECMO application and other 7 discharged with NYHA Ⅰ/Ⅱ cardiac function. Conclusion Early use of ECMO could safely bridge the heart failure patients to the transplant. Replacing the routine with ECMO techniques in the heart transplantation could get good myocardial protection results even with long cold ischemic time and improve the cardiac function recovery. For the heart failure patients after the surgery the ECMO could afford good support effect.

Objective To study the expression of phosphorylated myosin light chain kinase(P-MLCK) in human pulmonary arterial endothelial cell(HPAEC) induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS). Methods HPAECs were cultured in vitro and treated with LPS(2 ?g/mL) and normal saline for 1 h,respectively.Immunofluorescence method and western blotting were used to detect P-MLCK. Results Compared with normal saline group,the number of HPAECs decreased,but the morphology of cells did not change.After treatment of LPS for 30 and 60 min,the expression of P-MLCK in HPAEC increased from 0.41?0.05 to 0.82?0.43 and 1.56?0.07,respectively(P
