Objective To explore the effect of the simvastatin administration on the expression of connective tissue growth factor （CTGF） in fihrotic lungs of rats. Methods The cats were treated with single intratracheal instillation of bleomycin （BLM） or instillation of the same volume of normal saline （NS） as a control. The administration of simvastatin（20 mg/kg）began once a day immediately or 7 days later after intratracheal BLM instillation respectively with the same volume of NS was given as a vehicle control. The rats were killed on day 7,14 and 28 respectively. Pathological alteration of lung tissue was observed hy HE staining and Masson staining. Hydroxyproline（HYP）content in lung tissue was used to determine the severity of pulmonary fibrosis. The expression of CTGF in lung tissue was exanfined by immunohistochem- istry staining and photodeusitometry. Results Histopathological changes of pulmonary fibrosis emerged gradually after the instillation of BLM. The expression level of CTGF was increased in lungs of rats after intratracheal instillation of BLM, compared with the control. The administration of simvastatin immediately or 7 days after intratracheal instillation of BLM, attenuated the histopathological changes of bleomycin- induced puhnonary fibrosis and prevented the increased expression of CTGF in lung tissue on day 28. Conclusion The adntinistration of simvastatin, immediately or 7 days after intratracheal BLM instillation, prevented the up-regulation of CTGF in fibrotic lungs of rats, which ntight be one of the mechanisms of the anti-fihrosis of simvastatin in lungs.

[Summary] This paper was to investigate whether serum angiopoietin-like protein 2 (Angptl 2) is associated with macrovascular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus.The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum Angptl 2 levels among control group and groups of type 2 diabetic patients with or without carotid atherosclerosis [0.98 (0.82-1.22),3.70 (2.69-4.85),1.17 (0.76-2.47) ng/ml].Logistic regression showed that Angptl 2 was an independent risk factor of macrovascular complications in the patients with type 2 diabetes.

AIM:To investigate the effects of 1.8mm coaxial micro incision phacoemulsification on corneal endothelial injury and postoperative visual acuity.METHODS: Totally 145 eyes in 120 patients underwent phacoemulsification from July 2013 to July 2015 were randomly divided into observation group 60 cases (73 eyes) and control group 60 cases (72 eyes).The observation group 60 cases were given 1.8mm coaxial micro incision cataract phacoemulsification operation,while the control group were given traditional 3.2mm coaxial micro incision cataract surgery.The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),corneal thickness of incision area,incision width,incision length,macular retinal thickness,surgically induced astigmatism,corneal endothelial cell counts and complications of the two groups were compared.RESULTS: The UCVA and BCVA on 1wk after surgery of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (t=3.604,7.109;P<0.05);the width of incision on 1wk and 1mo after surgery of the observation group were significantly less than the control group (t=205.3,225.2;P<0.05).The length of incision in observation group was significantly greater than the control group (t=3.926,5.009;P<0.05).Macular retinal thickness 1wk after surgery of the observation group was significantly less than the control group (t=2.817,P<0.05).The surgically induced astigmatism was significantly less than the control group (t=19.43,22.16;P<0.01);the difference of corneal edema between the two groups was not significant (8.22% vs 11.11%) (x2=0.348,P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The 1.8mm micro incision phacoemulsification is helpful to improve the visual acuity of patients with cataract phacoemulsification,which may be related to the reduction of corneal cell injury,enhancement of corneal closure and decrease post-operation corneal original astigmatism.

Objective:To evaluate the immunogenicity of recombinant factor H binding protein(fHBP) by detecting serum antibody titer and serum bactericidal antibody test (SBA).Methods:fHBP sequence was selected and synthesized, connected to plasmid pET43.1a, transformed to Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), and expressed two recombinant fHBP proteins, included two subfamilies, fHBPA and fHBPB. After purification, the recombinant fHBP proteins were immunized to rabbits and mice. The immune antiserum titer and the bactericidal titer to epidemic strains of meningococcal bacteria group B were measured by ELISA and SBA respectively. Results:The antiserum titer of fHBP immunized rabbits was greater than 2.0×10 6, and that of immunized mice was not less than 1.0×10 6. fHBP immunized rabbit serum had bactericidal titer more than 1∶128 to 41 strains A subfamily and 20 strains B subfamily in the SBA against 69 endemic strains, and there was no cross-protection between the subfamily bacteria. The bactericidal titers of mouse serum immunized fHBPA to strains A subfamily such as Nm210902 Nm211009、Nm450522 were 1∶1 024, 1∶608、1∶861, to Nm510703、Nm311304、Nm431002 were 1∶234、1∶861、1∶430 respectively, and mouse serum immunized fHBP B to strains B subfamily Nm311302、Nm311304、Nm431002 were 1∶876、1∶274、1∶1858, all of three strains were positive in bactericidal titers. Conclusions:the titer of fHBP antiserum was higher than 1.0×10 6, the bactericidal titer was no less than 1∶128 to 61 epidemic strains, and it has a 94.2% protective effect on 69 meningococcal epidemic strains group B.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and toxicity of gefitinib combined with Zhenqi Fuzheng capsule in treatment of senile non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at the middle and late stages. Methods88 patients with NSCLC at Ⅲ b-Ⅳ were randomly divided into combined drugs group ( gefitinib combined Zhenqi Fuzheng capsule,n =46 cases) and single drug group (gefitinib,n=42 cases).After treatment for 60 d,the short-term efficacy,side effects and quality of life were observed and evaluated. The objective response and survival rate were assessed after following up for 2 years. Results The short-term efficacy rate in the combined drugs group (19.6 ％ ) was higher than single drug group (11.9 ％ ),but there was no significant difference between the two groups (x2=0.096,P＞0.05).The rate of Karnofsky score in improvement and stableness was 71.7％ in combined drugs group and 50.0％ in single drug group,and quality of life improved after combined drugs compared with single drug treatment (x2 =4.376,P＜0.05).The adverse effects in combined drugs group was some lower than in single drug group with no statistical significance.There was no differences in the survival rates of 2 years between the two groups(x2 =0.556,P＞0.05). ConclusionsThe gefitinib combined Zhenqi Fuzheng capsule in treatment of middle-and late-stage NSCLC is worthy to be popularized due to positive efficacy,less side effects and higher quality of life.

Objective To investigate the biological effects of 12C heavy ions with different LETs,and to construct the dose-effect curves of chromosomal aberrations and micronucleus.Methods Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were irradiated with 0.5 - 5.0 Gy of 60Co γ-rays,29 and 148 keV/μm 12C with a dose rate of 0.5 Gy/min,respectively.The colchicine method and cytokinesis-blocking method were applied to measure chromosome aberrations and micronuclei formation,respectively. Results The chromosomal aberrations induced by 29 and 148 keV/μm of 12C ion had a linear dose response,while the dose-response of micronucleus induction followed to a linear-quadratic model.Chromosome aberration and micronucleus frequency increased with the LET of 12C ions. However, the micronucleus frequency increased slowly when the radiation doses exceeded 3.0 Gy..Chromosomal aberrations induced by 148 keV/μm 12C ions increased significantly when the time of colchicine treatment was prolonged.Conclusions Chromosome aberration and micronucleus induced by 12C ions increased with the LET,and the micronucleus frequency increased with dose less than 3 Gy.The biological effects of 12C ions were stronger than those of low LET irradiation of γ-rays.
