0.05).The positive expression rate of CXCR4 was 96% in cancer cells in regional metastasized lymph nodes.And its expression was lower than that in primary tumors(P

0.05);The levels of basal FINS showed a significant differences between group A and group B(P0.05).Conclusions Intensive insulin treatment to newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients can control blood glucose rapidly to a desired level,and can recover the function of B cell better than traditional oral hypoglycemic agents by dissolving the virulence of glucose rapidly.

Objective: To study the effect of Resen heche tablets (RSHC) on tonyfing and warming Shen Yang. Methods: The mice model of Shen Yang deficiency was established by injecting hydrocortisone. The body weight, autonomic activity and swimming time in ice water in model mice were observed. The level of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in red cell and lipid peroxide (LPO) in plasma of aged rats were analyzed. The effect on anti stress in mice was examined. Results: RSHC had the remarkable effect to improve body weight and autonomic activity and to prolong swimming time in ice water in model mice, and to increase SOD activity and reduce LPO in blood of aged rats, and to elevate the ability of anti fatigue and anoxic tolerance in mice. Conclusion: RSHC drug has the effect on tonifying and warming Shen Yang; can promote growth, enhance organism activity, elevate the adaptation to circumstances and protect injury from free radicals.

The pathological changes in myocardial cell of diabetic rats were consistent with diabetic cardiomyopathy. The levels of adiponectin and the expression of T-cadherin in diabetic group were increased gradually,and higher than in normal control group

Objective To investigate the expression of activator protein-1 (AP-1) in PBMCs from patients with dermatomyositis (DM) and glucocorticoid effect on the expression.Methods PBMCs were isolated from 15 normal human controls and 20 patients (including 12 patients with primary DM who had never received glucocorticoid treatment and 8 patients with recurrent DM who had stopped glucocorticoid treatment for more than 1 month),and classified into two parts:one was cultured in RPMI 1640 medium with dexamethasone of 80 μmol/L and 10％ calf serum for 48 hours,and the other was frozen at -80 ℃ and reserved.Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) was carried out to detect the activity of AP-1 in these cells.Results The expression (grayscale area) of AP-1 in the PBMCs from the normal controls was 4.93 ± 0.15 mm2.A significant decrease was induced by the treatment with dexamethasone in the expression (grayscale area) of AP-1 from PBMCs of patients with primary DM and those with recurrent DM (5.59 ± 0.39 vs.30.23 ± 0.49 mm2,5.69 ± 0.39 vs.34.79 ± 0.61 mm2,F =13812.64,P ＜ 0.01 ).The activity of AP-1 was statistically higher in the PBMCs from patients with recurrent DM than in those from patients with primary DM before the treatment with dexamethasone (P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions The enhanced activity of AP-1 may be an important factor inducing the inflammatory reaction in and recurrence of DM.Glucocorticoids may suppress the AP-1 activity to a certain degree.

Objective To examine the expression of protein kinase C (PKC), connexin43(Cx43) and non-phosphorylated Cx43 in ovarian cancer, and discuss the role of phosphorylated of Cx43 in chemoresistance in ovarian cancer. Methods We examined the expression of Cx43, non-phosphorylated Cx43 and PKC in ovarian cancer tissue by immunohistochemistry, and compared their expression in chemosensitivity group and ehemoresistance group. Cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3/DDP cells were treated by staurosporine (a kind of PKC inhibitors). Then expression of Cx43, non-phosphorylated Cx43 and PKC were tested. Meanwhile, we tested chemosensitivity of SKOV3/DDP cells by ATP bioluminescence tumor chemosensifivity assay (ATP-TCA). Results (1) Immunohistochemically,the rates of positive expression of Cx43 and non-phospharylated Cx43 were 54%, 14% respectively in the chemoresistance group, which were 83%, 59% in the chemosensitivity group respectively (P<0.05). The rate of positive expression of PKC in 28 chemoresistance ovarian cancer cases (64%) was higher than that in 29 chemosensitivity cases (31% ,P<0.05). Both of them were significantly lower in ehemoresistanee group than in chemosensitivity group (P<0.05). In addition, the expression of PKC was negatively correlated with the expression of Cx43 and non-phosphorylated Cx43. The correlation coefficients were -0. 626 and -0. 714, respectively (P<0.05). (2) Immunohistochemically, PKC was down regulated, and Cx43 and non-phosphorylated Cx43 were up regulated in SKOV3/DDP cells after staurosporine treatment. The longer the staurosporine worked, the more expression of Cx43 was. (3) By ATP-TCA, SKOV3/DDP cells were resistant to paclitaxel and cisplatin. The tumor growth inhibition was higher in the group of paclitaxel or cisplatin combined staurosporine than in the group of paclitaxel or cisplatin alone. The sensitivity was intermediate in the group combined with low concentration staurosporine (1×10-8 moL/L), and the sensitivity was high in the group combined with high concentration staurosporine (1×10-7 mol/L). Conclusions Phosphorylation of Cx43 caused by PKC leads to decrease in the expression of Cx43. This effect makes ovarian cancer cells less chemosensitive. Phosphorylation of Cx43 caused by PKC can be inhibited by staurosporine.

Human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV) is commonly transmitted through blood transfu-sion, sexual contact and mother-to-child transmission. The number of patients with HIV infection has kept growing in the last three decades. Although the wide application of antiretroviral therapy ( ART) has effec-tively suppressed the replication of HIV, the emergence of drug resistant mutants compromises the efficacy of ART. What is worse is that there has been transmission of drug resistance strains in ART-na?ve HIV-infected individuals. This review describes the distribution of transmitted drug resistance strains in different regions and high risk population as well as the factors associated with the transmission in recent years.

Objective To discuss the rule of distribution of TCM syndromes of Psoriasis (Ps).Methods The 205 Ps vulgaris outpatients were investigated and the case research forms were filled in.Based on the diagnosis standard of TCM syndromes,the patients were differentiated into different syndromes.The correlation between the syndromes and clinical materials were discussed.Results The main TCM syndromes of Ps were blood heat,blood stasis,blood dryness,blood heat-stasis,blood heat-dryness and blood stasis-dryness.The distribution of these six main syndromes in different ages,disease stages,and recurrent time in different groups was significantly different (P

Objective To investigate the effects of adiponectin on cell activity and expression of T-cadherin in human retinal pigment epithelial(hRPE) cells cultured with high glucose.Methods ①The hRPE cells were divided into three groups:normal glucose group(5.5mmol/L glucose),high glucose group (33mmol/L glucose),high glucose plus adiponectin group (33mmol/L glucose+2.5ug/ml adiponectin).48h later,the cell activity was observed by MTT assay.②After the above groups were cultured respectively for 24h,48h,72h again,the expression of T-cadherin mRNA was observed by RT-PCR. Results ①Cell activity in high glucose group significantly decreased. Cell activity adiponectin group was higher than that in the high glucose group.②With the extension of time ,the expression of T-cadherin decreased in high glucose group,but increased in adiponectin group. Conclusion Adiponectin may be protect the hRPE cells by T-cadherin.
