Objective To study the probability of evaluating myocardial tissue perfusion by corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) after successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Sixty-three patients with their first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who accepted primary coronary intervention were recruited. All these patients got TIMI 3 grade flow. CTFC was measured after successful PCI in these patients. Wall Motion Score Index (WMSI) assessed by two-dimensional echocardiography before and one month after PCI and the correlation studied between CTFC and WMSI. Results According to CTFC the patients were divided into two groups. Improvement of WMSI in the TIMI 3 fast group was significantly greater than that of the TIMI 3 slow group. CTFC had a significant correlation with the change in WMSI. Elapsed time from the onset of symptoms to reperfusion in the TIMI slow group was significantly longer than that of the TIMI fast group. Conclusion CTFC is a quantitative, and reproducible index of coronary blood flow. Lower CTFC is associated with greater functional recovery and could supply evidence for additional adjunctive treatment.

Objective: To ascertain the factors and levels in the orthogonal design by drawing the extraction amount time curve of total alkaloid of Rhizoma Coptidis in different solvents. Methods:The extraction amount time curve of total alkaloid was plotted with the extraction amount of total alkaloid as a marker. The orthogonal design was used to select the optimum extraction process according to the contents of total alkaloid and berberine, and extract yield. Results:The extraction amound of total alkaloid related to volume and kinds of solvent and extraction time. The optimum exttraction process was as follows: adding 50% alcohol into meterials and refluxing and extracting for 3 times, 120 min every time. Conclusion:The investigation on the relation between total alkaloid extraction amount and time is of an instructive significance in orthogonal design. The optimum extraction process of Rhizoma Coptidis will provide an experimental basis for industrial production.

Objective To investigate the effect of on serum and urine MCP -1 secretion in patients with Stage IV Type 2 diabetic nephropathy treated by lipoic acid .Methods We enrolled 76 diabetic nephropathy patients ,who were randomly divided into two groups . Patients in group T (24 males and 14 females) were treated by lipoic acid 0.6 gram per day.Those in group C (22 males and 16 fe-males) were treated by routine drugs.The serum creatinine (Scr), urea nitrogen (BUN), fasting blood sugar(FBS) and 24h urinary pro-tein,serum and urine MCP -1 secretion were measured at the experiment onset and 3 weeks later.Results There was no significant difference in the serum creatinine , urea nitrogen, fasting blood sugar, HbA1c between the two groups neither at the experiment onset nor after 3 weeks.Compared to experiment onset , 24h urine protein (Tp/24h), serum and urine MCP-1 secretion were all significantly de-creased (P<0.05) in group T after 3 weeks.Compared to group C (2.41 ±0.91g/24h, 91.45 ±33.41pg/ml, 114.78 ±36.35pg/ml), all the levers in group T (1.89 ±0.72g/24h, 39.50 ±13.68pg/ml, 63.41 ±19.57pg/ml) was significantly decreased (P<0.05) after 3 weeks.There was a positive correlation between the serum , urine MCP-1 levels and Tp/24h (r=0.572, P<0.05;r=0.697,P<0.05).Conclusion Lipoic acid can reduce urine protein excretion in diabetic nephropathy patients , maybe by decreasing serum and u-rine MCP-1 secretion .

Objective To systematically evaluate the risk of BRCA1 mutation in patients with triplenegative breast cancer (TNBC).Methods Articles about the association between the TNBC and BRCA1 mutation were retrieved from database,such as PubMed,CNKI,Wanfang,VIP and CBM databases.The odds ratio (OR) was used to evaluate the risk of BRCA1 mutation in TNBC compared with non-TNBC.Rev Man 5.2 software was applied to perform the Meta-analysis.Results A total of 23 articles were eligible for the Meta-analysis,including 1 104 patients with TNBC and 4 245 patients with non-TNBC.The pooled OR was 7.67 and 95％ CI(6.24,9.42),and the difference was statistically significant (Z =19.38,P ＜ 0.000 01).In the subgroup analysis about the race,the pooled OR for Asian was 6.67 and 95％ CI (4.98,8.95).The pooled OR for Caucasian was 8.83 and 95％ CI (6.61,11.80).There was statistically significant difference in the pooled OR between the Asian and the Caucasian (Z =14.74,P ＜ 0.000 01).Conclusion The patients with TNBC are 7.67 times more likely to have BRCA1 mutation compared with non-TNBC phenotype.Largesample randomized controlled trials are warranted to demonstrate the detection of BRCA1 mutation can be a conven-tional application in clinical for the patients with TNBC.

Objective To investigate the optimal condition for culturing human umbilical cord blood-derived stromal cells(hUCBDSCs),and to observe their biological behaviors.Methods The umbilical cord blood was obtained from the Department of Obstetrics of the authors' hospital.The influence on the growth of hUCBDSCs was determined by the isolation method,the medium and the time of renewal of first medium were analyzed.The status of cell growth was observed under inverted microscope and the morphological characters were studied with the cells stained by Wright's staining.The hUCBDSCs were identified by cytochemistry and immunocytochemistry methods.Results The gelatin precipitation was better than other techniques for isolation.The optimal time for first medium renewal was the fourth day of culturing,and the improved Dexter-type cultural system was better than the classical Dexter-type cultural system in primary culture.The colonies of adherent cells began to form in 9-14 days(with a median of 12.1 days),and the number of colonies reached it maximum in 15-21 days(mean 19.4 days).On day 28,adherent cells spread all over the bottom of dish.On day 28 of culturing,these cells were found under light microscopy to have differentiated into three kinds of cells: fibroblast-like cells,macrophage-like cells and small-round cells.Cytochemistry assay revealed that the positive rate reached 100% with non-specific esterase(NSE) and saccharogen(PAS) staining.26% of the hUCBDSCs were positive with alkaline phosphatase(ALP) staining,but negative with peroxydase(POX) staining.Immunocytochemistry staining revealed that the positive rates of hUCBDSCs for CD31,CD68 and Fn were 96% and 95%,and 94% respectively,and for CD45 was 0%.Conclusion The hUCBDSCs could be successfully cultured in vitro,and it sets a foundation for further study on the clinical application of hUCBDSCs.

Objective To investigate the effects of thrombopoietin (TPO) on the proliferation of megakaryocytic line-HEL cells co-cultured with human umbilical cord blood-derived stromal cells (hUCBDSCs), which is supposed to further elucidate the mechanism of TPO-mediated functions. Methods HEL cells were co-cultured with hUCBDSCs, and with human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs), and suspended HEL was used as control. HEL The concentration of TPO in supernatant of hUCBDSCs and hBMSCs was detected by ELISA assay. The expression of c-Mpl membrane-bound protein of HEL cells was detected by laser scanning confocal microscopy and flow cytometry, and the expression of c-Mpl mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Results It was revealed by ELISA assay that the concentration of TPO secreted by hUCBDSCs was higher than that by hBMSCs, even though the passage was done. The secretion peak in hUCBDSCs group appeared at the 8th day of culturing, somewhat delayed to that in hBMSCs group which the peak appeared at the 6th day. The expression of C-mpl protein displayed uniform green fluorescence on the surface of HEL cell line as determined by laser confocal microscopy, and mean fluorescence intensity detected by flow cytometry was 22.19?2.15, 29.65?0.82 and 37.43?1.69 in HEL suspended culture group, HEL/hBMSCs co-culture group and HEL/ hUCBDSCs co-culture group, respectively. The expression of C-mpl protein in HEL/ hUCBDSCs co-culture group was higher than that in the two other groups (P0.05). Conclusion TPO-pathway might be the important intermediate process for hUCBDSCs to promote megakaryocyte proliferation. The promotion as such may be realized by up-regulating the c-Mpl expression in translation or post-translational modification phase.
