To develop a method for the determination of residual solvents inα-ketophenylalanine calcium by capillary gas chromatography. Methods:The residual solvents were separated on a DB-624(30 m × 0. 32 mm, 0. 25 μm) capillary chromato-graphic column with temperature programming. The column temperature was maintained at 40℃ for 1 min,and then raised to 180℃at a rate of 10℃·min-1 and maintained for 2 min. N2 was used as the carrier gas, and FID was used as the detector with temperature of 250 ℃. The injector temperature was 200 ℃ and the split ratio was 10∶1, and direct injection was adopted. Methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran in α-ketoleucine calcium were detected using an external standard method. Results:The four solvents were separated completely. There was a good linear relationship between the peak area and the concentration of each solvent ( r=0. 997 2-0. 999 5). The average recovery of the four solvents was 95. 47%-100. 26%(RSD≤4. 7%, n=9). Conclusion:The method is rap-id, simple, accurate and sensitive, and can be used in the determination of residual solvents in α-ketophenylalanine calcium.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of telmisartan on the level of serum adiponectin and the expression of cardiac adiponectin (APN) receptor 1 in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) in order to explore the role of APN in ventricular remodeling caused by hypertension and the new possible mechanism that telmisartan protects the heart against ventricular remodeling.Methods The sixteen 12-week-old SHR were randomly divided into SHR control group (SHR group, n=8) and SHR+telmisartan group (TEL group, n=8), and eight age-matched male Wistar Kyoto rats were regarded as control group (WKY group). The TEL group was treated with telmisartan 5 mg-1 · kg-1 ·d-1 in a small amount of distilled water and the other two groups were given equal amount of distilled water by gavage.After 8 weeks, the left ventricular end diastolic diameters (LVEDD),thickness of interventricular septal thickness (IVST), left ventricular post wall thickness (LVPWT) and mitral valve blood flow spectrums were recorded by echoeardiograph.The E/A ratio was calculated by velocity of E peak divided by A peak. The left ventricular weight index (LVWI) was calculated. HE staining and Masson staining were used to detect the pathology changes of cardiac tissue and collagen volume fraction (CVF).Serum APN concentration of SHR was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The myocardial protein expression of AdipoR1 was detected by in munohistochemical staining.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reactions (RTPCR) method was used to detect the mRNA expression of AdipoRl in myocardium.ResultsThe values of IVST, LVPWT and LVWI were higher, LVEDD and E/A ratio were lower in SHR group than in WKY group.The disordered arrangement of myocardialcells,interstitialfibroblast hypertrophy and hyperplasia were observed in SHR group. The CVF increased in SHR group than in WKY group [(6.22±0.16)％ vs. (3. 18±0. 17)％, P＜0.05]. The concentration of serum APN was significantly lower in SHR group [( 10.96±2. 15)μg/ml vs. (24.32±2. 20)μg/ml, P＜0. 01].The expressions of myocardial AdipoR1 mRNA and protein were significantly lower in SHR group.The values of IVST, LVPWT and LVWI were lower, LVEDD and E/A ratio were higher in TEL group than in SHR group. The arrangement of myocardial cells were relatively ordered and interstitial fibroblasts hypertrophy and hyperplasia were not significant, CVF was decreased in TEL group versus SHR group. The concentration of serum APN was significantly higher in TEL group [(17.71 ± 5.82)μg/ml, P＜0. 01]. The expressions of myocardial AdipoR1 mRNA and protein were significantly higher in TEL group than in SHR group. Conclusions When SHR undergoes ventricular remodeling, the level of serum APN is lower, the mRNA and protein expressions of myocardial AdipoRl are significantly reduced. Telmisartan can reverse the ventricular remodeling and play the role in protecting heart in SHR, which may be due to the serum APN levels increasing, cardiac APN receptor 1 and its mRNA up-regulation.

Objective To observe the effect and safety of low dose milrinone used in patients suffering from refractory heart failure and renal dysfunction. Methods Forty-two patients with refractory heart failure and renal dysfunction were divided into treatment group(21 cases ) and control group(21 cases )by random digits table. All the patients accepted a therapy of cardiac booster, diuretics and vasodilators, and treatment group also accepted the therapy of milrinone [0.375 μ g/( kg· min), 10 mg/d, for 7 days]. And then the symptom, signs, blood pressure, heart rate, heart function and renal function before and after the treatment were observed. Results The total effective rate in treatment group was 85.7%( 18/21 ) ,significantly higher than that in control group [57.1% (12/21)] (P ＜0.05＝. After treatment,the heart rate,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,stroke volume,cardiac output and left ventricular ejection fraction in treatment group and control group improved significantly than those before treatment, and these index improved better in treatment group [(79.3 ± 12.4) beats/min vs. (85.4 ± 10.2) beats/min, ( 107.6 ± 15.4)mm Hg ( 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) vs.( 119.1 ± 13.5 ) mm Hg, (60.8 ± 9.4) mm Hg vs. (65.8 ± 8.5 ) mm Hg,(66.3 ± 10.2 ) ml vs. (61.2 ± 9.3 ) ml, (5.3 ± 0.6 ) L/min vs. (4.8 ± 0.9) L/min, (56.6 ± 8.4 )% vs. (48.9 ±7.3)% ,P ＜ 0.05＝. In two groups,there were no statistical difference in renal function. Conclusions Low dose of milrinone can improve the heart function of the patients with refractory heart failure and renal dysfunction and has good renal safety.

This paper is to investigate the effect of ischemic preconditioning on cardiac function in the hyperlipidemic rats.The alterations of LVSP,(d p /d t ) max , GSH Px, SOD and MDA were measured in ischemia/reperfusion group, ischemic preconditoning group and control group with in vitro myocardial ischemic precondioning model. The level of LVSP, (d p /d t ) max , GSH Px and SOD was significantly higher in the preconditoning group than that in the ischemia/reperfusion group, and these values were close to those in the control group. The area of contraction component in P cycle was higher and the amount of MDA was lower, whereas the level of LVSP, (d p /d t ) max declined significantly in ischemia/reperfusion group.It is suggested that ischemic preconditoning in hyperlipidemic rats can reduce cardiac functional impairment due to ischemia/reperfusion injury, and may have myocardial protective effects.

Sarcomas collectively represent over 100 different subtypes of bone and soft tissue tumors.They are not sensitive to chemotherapy,which requires the development of tissue-specific or pathway-specific therapies.As our understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving sarcomas is rapidly advancing,the number of targeted therapies is also increasing.Recently identified novel druggable targets including the MDM2 amplifications in welldifferentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcomas,the fusion NAB2:STAT6 of solitary fibrous tumor,the SDH mutations in gastrointestinal stro mal tumors,the suppression of Mcl1 in synovial sarcomas,CDK4 in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.They will play an important role in the treatment of sarcoma.Here,the author do an overview of these factors.

Objective:To explore the relationship among professional psychological help-seeking intention,mental symptoms,and self-efficacy in adults.Methods:Totally 618 adult samples[286 males and 332 females,304 early adulthood (18-35 years) and 314 middle adulthood (36-60 years)] were selected on the internet.They were assessed with the Intention of Seeking Counseling Inventory (ISCI),Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) and General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) to evaluate professional psychological help-seeking intention,mental symptom and self-efficacy respectively.Results:Females and middle adulthood subjects got higher ISCI scores than males and early adulthood subjects [(82.7 ± 6.7) vs.(77.8 ± 7.8),(83.9 ± 6.2) vs.(76.8 ± 7.3);Ps ＜ 0.001].Step linear regression analysis showed that age,scores of self-efficiency,horror and obsessive-compulsive symptoms had positive prediction effect on help-seeking intention (3 =0.34,0.29,0.10,0.11).Mental symptoms,hostility and paranoia had negative prediction effect on help-seeking intention (β =-0.17,-0.15,-0.11),and the 7 variables could explain 45.6％ of the variation.Conclusion:It suggests that the adults' professional psychological help-seeking intention may be related to subject age,mental symptom and self-efficiency.

Objective To explore the interaction between polymorphisms of rs17222919 which located in the 5-1ipoxygenase-activating protein(ALOX5AP) gene promoter and environmental risk factors in ischemic stroke(IS).Methods We conducted a case-control study involving a total of 622 cases and 631 unrelated healthy controls which were selected from Henan Han populations,and the environment risk factors were recorded.Genotyping aimed at detecting both genetic and environmental factors in relation to IS was performed by TaqMan-polymerase chain reaction technology while interaction indexes (Υ) were calculated to determine interactions and their role models.Results The rs17222919 TG (189/622,30.4％),GG (18/622,2.9％)genotype frequencies and G (225/1244,18.1％)allele frequencies in IS subjects were significantly lower than those in controls (221/631,35.0％ ; 31/631,4.9％ ; 283/1262,22.4％ ; x2 =4.117,P =0.042 ; x2 =4.457,P =0.035 ; x2 =7.294,P =0.007).Negative interactions between TG + GG genotype and hypertension,diabetes or cigarette smoking in the occurrence of IS (Υ =0.943,0.922,0.830) were observed,whose role models were all super-multiplicative models.Conclusions According to our study,ischemic stroke is the result of the interaction of genetic and environmental factors and G allele of rs17222919 may have weakened the role of environmental factors for hypertension,diabetes and cigarette smoking in IS incidence.

Objective To detect anti-clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM)-140 antibody in patients with dermatomyositis (DM) or CADM,and to estimate its clinical correlation.Methods Serum samples were collected from 22 patients with DM,16 patients with CADM,46 patients with other connective tissue diseases complicated by interstitial lung disease(including 8 cases of polymyositis,15 cases of systemic lupus erythematosus,5 cases of systemic sclerosis,6 cases of Sj(o)gren syndrome,6 cases of mixed connective tissue disease,6 cases of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis),and 5 normal human controls.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed with the recombinant melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5(rMDA)as a substrate to measure the anti-CADM-140 antibody in these serum samples.Clinical manifestations were compared between patients with anti-CADM-140 antibody and those without.Results The anti-CADM-140antibody was found in 43.8% (7/16) of patients with CADM and 9.1%(2/22) of patients with DM(P<0.05),but absent in the patients with other connective tissue diseases and in the normal human controls.A significant incroase was observed in anti-CADM-140 antibody-positive patients with DM/CADM in the incidence of cutaneous ulceration and necrosis,interstitial lung disease and rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (8/9 vs.6.9%,P<0.01;9/9 vs.48.3%,P<0.01;5/9 vs.0,P<0.05),serum lactate dehydrogenase level(328.3±104.2 vs 241.1±100.3 IU/L P<0.05),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(40.8±23.1 vs.22.5±16.8 mm/1 h,P<0.05),high resolution computed tomography score(122.9±54.8 vs.70.0±59.8,P<0.05)compared with anti-CADM-140 antibody-negative patients with DM/CADM.The ereatine kinase level was significantly lower(156.3±260.8 vs.1806.2±3737.1 IU/L P<0.05)in anti-CADM-140 antibody-positive patients with DM/CADM than in anti-CADM-140 antibody-negative patients with DM/CADM,while no significant difference was noted in the positivity rate of antinuclear antibodies or incidence of malignancies between the antibody-positive and-negative patients with DM/CADM.Conclusions Anti-CADM.140 antibody not only is useful for the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease in patients with DM/CADM,but also may serve as a serum marker for rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease.Monitoring of serum anti-CADM-140 antibody might help to predict the progression of interstitial lung disease in patients with DM/CADM.

ObjectiveTo detect the expressions of Nuclear factor-erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (NRF2) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2), and investigate their significance in primary gallbladder carcinoma. MethodsImmunohistochemistry SP assay and image analysis were used to detect the expressions of NRF2 and MRP2 protein in 59 patients with primary gallbladder carcinoma. ResultsA highly positive expression rates of NRF2 and MRP2 were found (76.3% and 74. 6%, respectively) in primary gallbladder carcinoma. The expressions of NRF2 and MRP2 had a significantly correlation with metastases, Nevin staging, and differentiation (P＜0.05), but there was no statistical association with sex and age. The expression of NRF2 had a positive correlation with MRP2 (r=0. 589,P＜0.05). Conclusion Both NRF2 and MRP2 were overexpressed in primary gallbladder carcinoma and they may play a role in the development of primary gallbladder carcinoma.
