The cardiovascular disease, accompanied by psychological disorder frequently, often re-quiresphysical and mental (double heart) treatment. The clinical teaching of cardiovascular graduate stu-dents is very important for cultivating qualified cardiovascular doctors. According to present situation, we improved the diagnosis rate and the doctor-patient communication skills by the strengthening of learning thedouble heart theory, the analysis ofdouble heart typical cases, and the clinical practice of double heart medical model. Accordingly, we enhanced the consciousness of double heart, which is helpful to reducing the conflicts between doctors and patients, promoted the rational use of medical resources, and fi-nally promoted the application ofdouble heartmedical model in clinical practice.

Objective To observe the application effect of Yunnan baiyao powder and alcohol with VitB12 on exosmosis of vincristin. Methods The 40 patients with exosmosis of vincristin were randomly divided into the treatment group(22 cases)and the control group( 18 cases).The treatment group was given the Yunnan baiyao powder and alcohol with VitB12,the control group was given magnesium sulfate for hydropathic compress.The effective rate and red swelling and ulcer of the skin in the two groups were evaluated. Results The effective rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group,red swelling and the diameter of the ulcer of the skin on the fifth and seventh day were shorter than the control group. Conclusions The Yunnan baiyao powder and alcohol with VitB12 are effective in treatment of the exosmosis induced by vincristin.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in cancer metastasis,and is relevant to the inflammatory microenvironment.Lipopolysaccharide (LPS),a cell wall constituent of gram-negative bacteria,has been reported to induce EMT of cancer cells through TLR4 signal.We previously reported that LPS promoted metastasis of mesenchymallike breast cancer cells with high expression of cyclin D 1 b.However,the role of cyclin D1b in LPS-induced EMT has not been fully elucidated.In the present study,we described that cyclin D1b augmented EMT induced by LPS in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.Cyclin D1b markedly amplified integrin αvβ3 expression,which was further up-regulated under LPS stimulation.Our results showed ectopic expression of cyclin D1b promoted invasiveness of epithelial-like MCF-7 cells under LPS stimulation.Additionally,LPS-induced metastasis and EMT in MCF-7-D1b cells might depend on αvβ3 expression.Further exploration indicated that cyclin D1b cooperated with HoxD3,a transcription factor promoting αvβ3 expression,to promote LPS-induced EMT.Knockout of HoxD3 repressed LPS-induced EMT and αvβ3 over-expression in MCF-7 cells with high expression of cyclin D1b.Specifically,all these effects were in a cyclin D1a independent manner.Taken all together,LPS up-regulated integrin αvβ3 expression in MCF-7 cells with high expression of cyclin D 1b and induced EMT in breast cancer cells,which highlights that cyclin D1b may act as an endogenous pathway participating in exogenous signal inducing EMT in breast cancer cells.

Objective To identify novel proteins of human adipocytes by proteomic study,and analyze their strueture and function.Methods The expressed proteins of human adipocytes were identified by 2-D electrophoresis and mass spectrometry,and the structure and function of the novel proteins were predicated via bioinforrnatics.Results My027 is a novel protein of human adipocytes identified by 2-D electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.This protein was confirmed by RT-PCR,sequencing,and prokaryotic expression.My027 protein is located in the cytoplasm and has highly conserved structure,indicating that it is an important functional protein. This protein is highly homologous to glyoxalase superfamily with a whole domain of glyoxalase.It shares 96.7% homologous to glycoxalase between 141-253 amino acids and 95.7% homologous to glycoxalaseⅠbetween 144-244 amino acids.Conclusion The results show that protein My027 appears to have the same function as glyoxalaseⅠ.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). Methods Clinical data was analyzed in 9 children who had been diagnosed as MAS in our hospital from Jan, 2003 to Aug, 2006. Results Seven children were boys, 2 children were girls, aged 5 months to 12 years. Clinical manifestations included long-term fever, hemophagocytic cell in bone marrow, anemia, arthritis, enlargement of lymph nodes, enlargement of liver and spleen, liver dysfunction, abnormal fat metabolism. Two cases had acute respiratory, distress syndrome(ARDS), 2 cases were complicated with multi- pie organ failure(MOF), two patients died. Glucocorticoid combined with immunosuppressive therapy were effective, HP(Plasma Exchange)was applied in one severe case and was shown to he effective. Conclusion MAS is a serious complication of JIA, especially in systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis. It is very im- portant to recognize and treat MAS earlier.

To investigate the effect of Ca(2+)-sensing receptor (CaR) on Spermine-induced extracellular Ca(2+) influx and NO generation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), the small interference RNA (siRNA) specifically targeting CaR gene was designed, synthesized and transfected into HUVEC according to the cDNA sequence of human CaR gene in GenBank. The transfection efficiency and the interference efficiency of CaR protein were determined by laser scanning confocal microscopy and Western blot, respectively. Intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) was measured by Fura-2/AM loading. The production of NO and the activity of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were determined by the DAF-FM diacetate (DAF-FM DA). Western blot results demonstrated that siRNA targeting the CaR specifically decreased the expression of CaR protein in CaR siRNA group 48 h after transfection (P < 0.05). At the same time, the Spermine-induced [Ca(2+)](i), eNOS activity and NO generation were also significantly reduced (P < 0.05) in CaR siRNA group compared with those in the untransfected or negative siRNA transfected group. In conclusion, the present study suggests that the CaR plays an important role in the Spermine-evoked process of extracellular Ca(2+) influx and NO generation in HUVEC.

In China, many surveys have shown that most people do not have a correct understanding about cold and administration of anti-cold Chinese patent medicine preparations. The author conducted a systematic summary and analysis on the actual application of anti-cold Chinese patent medicine preparations as well as the warning on safe application of anti-cold Chinese patent medicine preparations in Clinical Medication Information of China Pharmacopoeia, in the expectation of reducing the blind application of anti-cold Chinese patent medicine preparations and providing traditional Chinese medicine pharmacists new ideas in monitoring the safe application of exterior syndrome-relieving Chinese patent medicine preparations.
