Objective To explore the value of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) in the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Sixty confirmed AMI patients were observed, the data of H-FABP, cardiac troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) were detected in < 6 h and 6-12 h after the symptoms appeared, and the sensitivity of the three markers was calculated. The specificity was compared with 15 uncertain AMI patients and 45 healthy subjects. Results The early diagnosis sensitivity of H-FABP in < 6 h was 94% in AMI, which was higher than that of cTnT (50%) and CK-MB (56%) (P < 0.05 ). The diagnosis sensitivity of H-FABP, CTnT, CK-MB in 6-12 h was 100%, 92%, 92% respectively (P> 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in the specificity among the three markers (P > 0.05). Conclusions H-FABP has more sensitivity and specificity in the early diagnosis of AMI. It is applicable in the screening of patients who suffered chest pain and the diagnosis of early AMI.

Objective To examine clinical significance and relativity of heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with chronic heart failure. Methods Ser-um concentrations of H-FABP and hs-CRP were measured in 60 patients with chronic heart failure and 30 control subjects. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was examined by Doppler echocardio graphic in all subjects. Re-sults Serum concentrations of H-FABP and hs-CRP were higher in patients with chronic heart failure than in con-trol subjects[(6.11±1.49)μg/L vs (4.24±1.40)μg/L,and (12.77±3.65)mg/L vs(4.85±1.35) mg/L,t=5.746 and 7.543,P<0.01] but LVEF was lower in patients with chronic heart failure than in control subjects [(42.13±6.55) % vs (61.50±3.89) %,t=-14.902,P<0.01]. In CHF subgroups,H-FABP and hs-CRP lev-el increased with advancing NYHA class (F=26.288 and 351.784,P<0.01) but LVEF decreased (F=252.834,P<0.01). The serum H-FABP concentrations had a positive correlation with serum hs-CRP concentrations (r=0.801,P<0.01),and a negative correlation with LVEF (r=-0.718,P<0.01) ;serum hs-CRP concentrations had a negative correlation with LVEF(r=-0.881,P<0.01). Conclusion Serum H-FABP and hs-CRP levels are in-creased with the worsening of CHF. H-FABP and hs-CRP level are pnsitiviely related. The quantitative determination of serum concentrations of H-FABP and hs-CRP is valuable for risk stratification in patients with chronic heart fail-ure.

Melanin is a kind of biopolymer, composed of a complex quinine/indole-quinone derived mixture which is produced in melanocytes from tyrosine. More than 100 genes related to melanin deposition have been found in mouse. Slc24a5 (solute carrier family 24, member 5) is a novel gene first cloned in zebrafish. And it has been confirmed that the Slc24a5 is involved in controlling the melanin deposition in zebrafish. Here the full length of the chicken slc24a5 mRNA sequence, its expression profile and a discussion of its relationship to melanin deposition in chicken were reported. Chicken Slc254a5 has a CDS of 1 269bp, predicting a protein of 423 amino acids which is about 80 amino acids shorter than in human and mouse. It has 9 exons and 8 introns and spans more than 1lkb of genome sequence. The quantitative real-time PCR confirmed that the chicken Slc24a5 was highly expressed in the eye of White Leghorn and Beijing Fatty Chickens, and in the eye, skin and muscle of Silky. The relative expression in Silky eye is more than two times that of White Leghorn. The relative expression in Silky skin is about 70 times that of White Leghorn and about 15 times that of Beijing Fatty Chickens. The relative expression in Silky muscle is about 15 times that of White Leghorn and about 3 times that of Beijing Fatty Chickens. And the expression result is in accordance with the melanocyte and melanin deposition in these tissues.

Objective To assess the modulation of baroreflex activity by exogenous and endogenous nitric oxide (NO) in SD rats. Method The normal baroreflex sensitivity of SD rat was evaluated by intravenous (I.v.) administration of Phenylephrine (PE, 30 μg·kg-1) to elevate blood pressure. Exogenous and endogenous nitric oxide (NO) were respectively produced by I.v. Infusion of sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 10.2 μg·kg-1) and L-arginine (L-Arg, 25 mg·kg-1). And NG-nitro-L-arginine methylester (L-NAME, 10 mg·kg-1) was infused to inhibit the generation of NO. Meanwhile, baroreflex sensitivity fluctuations caused by PE were estimated. Result Compared with the normal state, L-Arg significantly reduced the baroreflex sensitivity (Gmax) and the slope coefficient τ of the blood pressure-heart rate curve [Gmax=-1.469±0.120 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -0.664±0.080 beats/(min·mmHg), P<0.01; τ=0.0860.005 vs. 0.0490.007, P<0.05]. SNP also led to attenuation of Gmax and τ [Gmax=-1.277±0.392 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -0.943±0.297 beats/(min·mmHg); τ=0.074豹0.027 vs. 0.071±0.023] but the changes were not significant. In contrast to L-Arg and SNP, L-NAME induced raise of Gmax and τ [Gmax=-0.705±0.231 beats/(min·mmHg) vs. -1.065±0.200 beats/(min·mmHg); τ=0.0450.011 vs. 0.0590.026], however, they were statistically insignificant. Conclusion The results demonstrated that NO imposes effect on baroreflex activity, and the behaviors of exogenous and endogenous NO are different. Endogenous NO may be involved in the regulation of autonomic nervous system via central nervous system or carotid sinus, and inhibits the baroreflex sensitivity.
