Abstract: Objective By analyzing the frequency distribution of antihypertensive drug-related genotypes in hypertensionpatients treated in our hospital, so as to provide a clinical basis for individualized treatment of hypertension patients. Methods A total of 72 hypertensive patients treated in Hainan Hospital of PLA General Hospital from June 2021 to April 2022 were collected. PCR-melting curve method was used to detect CYP2D6*10 (c.100 C>T), CYP2C9*3 (c.1075 A>C), ADRB1 (c.1165 G>C), AGTR1 (c.1166 A>C), ACE (I/D), NPPA (T2238C) and CYP3A5*3 (A6986G), and the relationship between different genotypes and biochemical indexes was analyzed. Results According to the statistics of the gene and genotype frequency of each point in 72 patients, the gene frequencies of 7 sites all conformed to Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. There were gender differences in ADRB1 genotypes (χ2 = 5.878, P<0.05). There were statistical differences in triglycerides [AA: 1.4 (1.0, 2.0)mmol/L; AC: 2.2 (1.5, 2.5)mmol/L; P=0.038], total cholesterol [AA: 4.0 (3.1, 4.9) mmol/L; AC: 4.8 (4.0, 5.3) mmol/L; P=0.040] and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [(AA: 2.4 (1.8, 3.3) mmol/L; AC: 3.2 (2.5, 3.5) mmol/L; P=0.035] among patients with different genotypes of AGTR1 locus. The patients with different genotypes of CYP2C9 locus had significant differences in their alanine transferase (ALT) [AA:16.9 (11.4,30.2) mmol/L; AC:10.4 (9.4, 18.2) mmol/L; P=0.040]. Aftergene-directed individualized therapy, different genotypes of CYP3A5 andAGTR1 affected the heart rate [CYP3A5: AA: (79.3±7.0) beats/min; AG: (69.8±6.8) beats/min; GG: (68.8±7.3) beats/min; P=0.010], systolic blood pressure [AGTR1: AA: (131.3±16.7) mmHg; AC: (140.6±11.8) mmHg; P=0.014] and diastolic blood pressure [CYP3A5: AA: (90.0±8.3) mmHg; AG: (78.7±10.8) mmHg; GG: (74.9±10.7) mmHg; P=0.025; AGTR1: AA: (75.3±10.2) mmHg; AC: (86.3±10.6) mmHg; P=0.001] of patients. Conclusions The related gene loci of antihypertensive drugs are an important basis for guiding the diversification and individualization of clinical medication. Clinicians need to consider the impact of related genes on drug efficacy and adverse reactions when prescribing.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of saikosaponin-d (SSd) on glomerular mesangial cells (MCs) proliferation and hyperplastic extracellular matrix (ECM) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to provide experimental proof for its use in prevention and treatment of glomerulosclerosis.
METHODSRat's MCs were cultivated and identified. The cultured MCs were stimulated by LPS and incubated with different concentrations of SSd. Cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay, LDH assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Type IV collagen (Col IV), fibronectin (FN) and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) in the conditioned medium were measured by ELISA. The expressions of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), c-Jun and c-Fos were detected by immunohistochemistry.
RESULTSAfter treated by SSd, MC proliferation was inhibited, cells in G0/G1 phase increased, and apoptosis induced. Moreover, secretion of Col IV, FN and TGF-beta1 and the expressions of CDK4, c-Jun and c-Fos in MC were inhibited.
CONCLUSIONThe inhibitory action of SSd on glomerulosclerosis was realized through inhibiting the expressions of CDK4, c-J un and c-Fos.

Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology 2002;18(1):71-74
AIMTo evaluate the effects of atria-His bundle sequential pacing on cardiac electrophysiology and heamodynamics in dogs.
METHODSIn 20 opening chest anesthetized dogs, platinum electrodes were fixed at the epicardium of right atria (RA) and the right ventricular apex (RVA) respectively, pacing right atria and the right ventricle. A special lead was located at His bundle (based on a optical "H" wave and narrow duration of the QRS complexes recorded in ECG), pacing His bundle. Cardiac electrophysiology and hemodynamics parameters were compared in the different pacing models RA(AAI, RVA-(VVI), HisB-(VVI) single chamber pacing and RA-RVA(DDI), RA-HisB(DDI) dual chamber pacing.
RESULTSThe threshold of His B pacing is similar to that of RVA pacing. Cardiac output (CO) is increased in pacing of RA(AAI), His B-(VVI) and RA-His B(DDI). It is increased by 29.64% in pacing of RA-His B(DDI) (P < 0.01) and by 0.25% (P > 0.05) in pacing of RA-RVA(DD1) While CO is decreased by 5.41% in RVA-VVI) pacing (P > 0.05). SV, LVSW and RVSW of RA-HisB(DDI) pacing are superior to those in RVA-VVI) and RA-RVA(DDI) pacing.
CONCLUSIONRight atria-His bundle sequence pacing significantly improves cardiac function compared with the other model pacing because it maintains normal physiological electronic activity sequence and systolic synchrony. It will be adapted to clinical application.

The expression of cDNA encoding Tachyleus auti-lipoposaccharide (LPS) factor, which is of interest for use as a potential inhibitor of the common core subunit of Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin. First, the TALF gene was inserted into expression vectors pGEX-4T-2, pET22b and pET28a to construct recombinant expression plasmids. The recombinant plasmids were transformed to E. coli BL21 (DE3) and the expression of TALF was examined. Results show that TALF in pET22b and pET28a vectors can't be expressed. Only the fusion protein GST-TALF was expressed in E. coli BL21 existing as inclusion bodies. From 1 liter of culture, about 4mg of fusion protein GST-TALF with 91% purity was finally obtained. No apparent bactericidal activity and LPS neutralizing activity of the fusion protein GST-TALF were found. After digested with thrombin, the fusion protein GST-TALF exhibited strong bactericidal activity and LPS neutralizing activity.

OBJECTIVETo explore the association between genetic polymorphism of serum amyloid protein A1 (SAA1) with carotid intima media thickness in a healthy Han Chinese population of Xinjiang.
METHODSA total of 449 healthy Han Chinese participating the cardiovascular risk survey between June 2007 and September 2009 were included, the genotypes of the SAA1 were detected by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The mean IMT of the right and left common carotid arteries were measured by B-mode ultrasonography.
RESULTS(1) There was strong linkage disequilibrium between rs12218 and rs2229338 (D' = 0.89). (2) The carotid common IMT (CC-IMT) and the carotid bulb IMT (CB-IMT) were similar between the AA genotype (wild genotype) and the GGFAG genotype (mutational genotype) in rs2229338 of SAA1 gene. (3) CC-IMT [(0.081 ± 0.071) cm vs (0.068 ± 0.019) cm, P = 0.01] was significantly thicker in CC + CT genotype (mutational genotype) group than in TT genotype (wild genotype) of rs12218 group and the difference remains significant after adjustment for age, gender, blood pressure, waist circumference, creatinine and high density lipoprotein cholesterol. CB-IMT [(0.085 ± 0.038) cm vs. (0.081 ± 0.052) cm, P = 0.36] was similar between CC + CT genotype and TT genotype of rs12218 groups.
CONCLUSIONOur results suggested that the genetic polymorphism of SAA1 might be linked with IMT and rs12218 mutation could serve as a promoting factor for IMT in Han Chinese people.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of manganese poisoning on the proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in mice's hippocampus.
METHODSThe mice (weight 8 approximately 10 g) were divided into control group(CG) low-dose group(LDG) middle-dose group(MDG) and high-dose group(HDG)by intraperitoneal injection of 0, 5, 20, 50 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1) of manganese chloride dissolved in physiological saline. The ability of learning and memory was detected by Morris Water Maze, and the proliferation of NSCs in subgranular zone (SGZ) in these mice's hippocampus was also detected by immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS1) Compared with the CG, the ability of learning and memory in all manganism group decreased significantly (P < 0.01) and this phenomenon in HDG was most notable (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, the ability of memory was negatively correlated with the dose of manganese chloride (r(s) = -0.598, P < 0.01), but the difference of swimming speed in every group was of no statistic significance. (2) The numbers of NSCs in proliferation period in SGZ of all manganism groups was much lower than that of CG (P < 0.01) negatively correlated with the dose of manganese chloride (r(s) = -0.666, P < 0.01). (3) The reduction of NSCs had a positive correlation to the depression of learning and memory (r(s) = 0.734, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSManganismus can affect the ability of learning and memory, which is probably caused by the inhalation of manganese on NSCs in hippocampus.

AIMTo approach the effects of multi-site synchronous ventricular pacing on myocardial mechanics and cardiac work.
METHODSFive modes of multi-site synchronous ventricular pacing were randomly performed in 12 dogs with anesthetized, opened chest and artificial-ventilation. Some parameters were measured simultaneously including: the peak of left ventricular pressure rise and fall (+/- dp/ dt(max)), the time constant of left ventricular relaxation(tau), the muscle tensile force in left/right ventricular wall (V-tensile force, V-TF), SV, LVSW and RVSW.
RESULTSThe myocardial systolic mechanical parameters: +dp/dt(max) and LV-TF of cHisB-LVPL and RVA-LVPL pacing by biventricular pacing modes were increased than that of cHisB-RVA pacing in right ventricular bifocal pacing mode. +dp/dt(max) in above two groups of biventricular pacing was increased than that in cHisB-RVA pacing. Tau value of cHisB-LVPL and RVA-LVPL pacing modes were shorted than that of cHisB-RVA pacing. The above parameters of cHisB-RVA-LVPL and cHisB-RVA-LVA biventricular trifocal pacing were superior to that of cHisB-LVPL and RVA-LVPL biventricular pacing. The +dp/dt(max), LV-TF and RV-TF of cHisB-RVA-LVPL pacing were increased as compared with that of cHisB-RVA-LVA pacing (P > 0.05). The -dp/dt(max) in cHisB-RVA-LVPL pacing were increased by 6.0% and tau value was shorted by 3.7% compared with those in cHisB-RVA-LVA pacing (P > 0.05). SV, LVSW and RVSW of cHisB-LVPL and RVA-LVPL biventricular pacing were increased than those of cHisB-RVA bifocal pacing. The above parameters of cHisB-RVA-LVPL pacing were increased than that of cHisB-RVA-LVA and cHisB-LVPL pacing.
CONCLUSIONIt was explained that the cHisB-RVA-LVPL biventricular trifocal sites synchronous pacing mode would increase the velocity of ejection and filling during myocardial contraction and relaxation and enhance cardiac work by maintaining normal VSS.

From January 2013 to January 2015, 19 patients of traumatic hemothorax with hemorrhagic shock were treated in our department by thoracoscopic surgery combined with autologous blood transfusion. This study retrospectively analyzed the therapeutic effect and shared our experience. The average amount of blood transfused back was 662.41 ml ± 269.15 ml. None of the patients developed transfusion reaction and were all discharged uneventfully. Thoracoscopic surgery combined with autologous blood trans- fusion is effective in the rescue of patients with progressive hemothorax and hemorrhagic shock. When corresponding indications are well managed, treatment for these patients is quicker, safer, and more effective.

Objective The aim of this study was to assess the association between human CYP4F2 gene and myocardial infarction (MI),using a haplotype-based case-control study. A separate analysis on gender was also carried out. Methods There were 250 MI patients and 250 control subjects genotyped for 5 SNPs of the human CYP4F2 gene (rs3093105, rs3093135, rs1558139, rs2108622, rs3093200). Data were assessed on 3 separate groups: the total subjects, men and women. Results For men, G allele was significantly higher in the MI patients than in the control subjects and the overall distribution of the haplotypes was significantly different between the MI patients and the control subjects (P=0.002). Also in men, the frequency of T-C-G haplotype was significantly higher for MI patients than for control subjects (P=0.002), and the frequency of T-C-A haplotype was significantly lower for M1 patients than for control subjects (P=0.003). Conclusion Data from the present results indicated that MI was associated with G allele of rs2108622 in men, suggesting that T-C-G haplotype might serve as genetic marker for MI in men.
