Objective To explore the clinical significance of hydrogen sulfide(H2S)and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)on pulmonary hypertension(PH),by detecting their levels of patients with congenital heart disease(CHD).Methods Forty-eight patients with CHD who had left-to-right shunt were selected randomly from cardiac surgery in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University.Forty-eight patients were performed successfully on radical operation under complex intravenous anesthesia,and they were divided 3 groups according to pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP)detected by doppler echocardiography before operation:no PH group(PASP0.05).Conclusions H2S plays an important role in the formation of PH and restructure.There is no correlation between PASP and HO-1 activities in serum,but HO-1 may be play an indirect action in the formation of PH and restructure.Measuring the levels of H2S may be a reliable method to follow the change of pulmonary pressure and worsening of PH.

Objective: To research the usability of the purpose-in-life test (PIL) for Chinese university students and evaluate the test’s reliability and validity. Methods: 1171 University students were measured by PIL, SCL-90 and Index of Well-being, and 140 University students were retested by PIL. Results: PIL had four factors (life feeling, life goal, life attitude and self-control) which were extracted by factor analysis. The split half reliability was 0.786, the Cronbach ?-co-efficient of PIL and the four factors were 0.878, 0.860, 0.809, 0.270, 0.406 respectively. The test-retest reliability were 0.837,0.849,0.630,0.314,0.728. The scores of Index of Well-being, the total scores of SCL-90 and the factor of depression were used as external criterion;the criterion correlation coefficient were 0.769,-0.504,-0.560 respectively. The correlations between the criterion and the four factors were significant (r=-0.240～0.787, P

Objective To observe the expression and role of HSP70 in human epidermis and cutaneous neoplasms.Methods 56 cases of epidermis tumors,including 29 biopsy samples from basal cell carcinoma, 27 from squamous cell carcinoma,and 30 from normal human skin were investigated. HSP70 expression was examined by immunohistochemical SABC staining with specific monoclonal antibodies.Results The expression of HSP70 was detectable in the cytoplasm throughout the epidermal cell layers in normal human epidermis,HSP70 expression in the tumor cells in basal and squamous cell carcinomas was reduced (P

Objective To analyze the differences of video laryngoscope, direct laryngoscopy and fibreoptic bron﹣choscope nasal intubation on hemodynamics, inflammatory and stress response. Methods 117 patients underwent surgery from November 2013 to March 2015 were chose as research subjects and randomly divided into video laryn﹣goscope group, direct laryngoscopy group, fiberoptic bronchoscope group based on different cannula enrolled way. Then compared the hemodynamics, inflammation, stress level after intubation among the three groups. Results Com﹣pared with the T0, the three groups patients' systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin -6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), norepinephrine (NE), plasma cortisol (Cor), angiotensinⅡ(ATⅡ) differences had no significant difference (P>0.05);compared with direct laryn﹣goscopy group, video laryngoscope group, fiberoptic bronchoscope group patients' T1, T2, T3 SBP, DBP, HR, CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, NE, Cor, ATⅡ levels were lower; compared with the video laryngoscope group, optical fiber bron﹣choscopy group patients SBP, DBP, HR, CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, NE, Cor, ATⅡ low levels at T1, T2, T3 were lower (P<0.05). Conclusions Fibreoptic bronchoscope nasal intubation has less influence on patients, will not cause severe stress and inflammatory response, it is one of the ideal instrument anesthesia induction intubation.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α)-targeting small interfering RNA(siRNA) on the expression of HIF-1α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in HaCaT ceils under hypoxic conditions. MethodsHaCaT cells were cultured and divided into four groups, normal control group (without any treatment), hypoxia group (cultured under hypoxic conditions for 24 hours),liposome control group (transfected with liposome followed by hypoxic culture for 24 hours), RNA interference group (transfected with HIF-1α-targeting siRNA/liposome complexes followed by hypoxic culture for 24 hours). Fluorescence real-time quantitative PCR was utilized to determine HIF-1oα and VEGF mRNA expression in HaCaT cells, and Western blot to detect HIF-1α and VEGF protein expression. ResultsNo significant difference was observed in the mRNA expression of HIF-1α between the hypoxia group and normal control group(0.907 ± 0.032 vs. 0.878 ± 0.034, F =1.108, P ＞ 0.05), while the expression levels of VEGF mRNA,HIF-1α and VEGF proteins were significantly higher in the hypoxia group than in the normal control group (0.935 ± 0.032 vs. 0.652 ± 0.053, 0.813 ± 0.047 vs. 0.236 ± 0.014, 0.791 ± 0.030 vs. 0.316 ± 0.013, all P ＜0.05). A significant decline was noted in the mRNA and protein expression levels of VEGF (0.230 ± 0.044 vs.0.978 ± 0.030, 0.213 ± 0.026 vs. 0.817 ± 0.049, both P ＜ 0.05) and HIF-1α(0.497 ± 0.033 vs. 0.806 ±0.040, 0.249 ± 0.028 vs. 0.833 ± 0.052, both P ＜ 0.05) in the RNA interference group than in the liposome control group. ConclusionsHypoxia may enhance the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in HaCaT cells, and to inhibit the HIF-1α expression may suppress the expression of VEGF in HaCaT cells under hypoxia.

Objective To investigate the effect of costimulatory molecules 4-1BB/4-1BBL on T cell activation with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)patients.Methods The expression of NF-kB mRNA and p38 MAPK mRNA of T cells with 20 SLE patients and 20 normal controls before activation,after activation and blocked bv 4-1BB/4-1BBL were detected bv RT-PCR.The protein levels of p-p38 MAPK and NF-kB were detected by Western blot.Results The expression of NF-kB mRNA and p38 MAPK mRNA and the protein expression of NF-kB and p-p38 MAPK of T cell with SLE patients were higher than that of normal controls(P＜0.01).There were more expression of NF-kB mRNA,p38 MAPK mRNA,NF-kB protein and p-p38 MAPK protein of T cell with SLE patients stimulated by anti-CD3 monoantibody(P＜0.01).In anti-4-1BB monoantibody blockage group,there were decreased expression of p38 MAPK mRNA and p-p38 MAPK protein(P＜0.01).but not the decreased NF-kB mRNA and protein expression.Conclusion Costimulatory molecule 4-1BB plays a critical role in T cell activation of SLE by p38 MAPK signal pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of T lymphocyte proliferation,Th1 and Th2 cytokines on T cells from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)patients by blocking 4-1BB/4-1BBL.Methods The proliferation of T cells from 30 SLE patients and 20 normal controls was detected by MTT and the levels of patients stimulated with anti-CD3 McAb were significantly higher than those of T cells without stimulation(P＜IFN-γand IL-4 in SLE were significantly higher than those of normal controls(P＜0.01).There were more ex-pression of IFN-γ and IL-4 in supernatant of T cells from SLE after stimulated with anti-CD3 McAb(P＜0.01).However,the production of IFN-γ and IL-4 was inhibited by anti-4-1BB McAb(P＜O.05),and especially the level of IL-4 was markedly decreased.Conclusion Blocking 4-1BB/4-IBBL can significantlv inhibit the abnormal activation of T cells and the secretion of Thl and Th2 cytokines of SLE.
