Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the changes of electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac markers for myocardial damage after on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Method Monitoring 25 patients of OPCABG (OPCABG group) and 25 patients of CABG (CABG group) R wave amplitude of V4 and V5 on antorior electrocardiographic lead and simultaneously determining cardiac markers for myocardial damage creatine phosphokinase isoenzyme MB (CPK-MB), tropenin I (cTnI) and heat-shock protein 70 (HSPT0) on different lime. Results R wave amplitude of V4 and V5 on anterior electrocardiographic lead had no significant changes on 0, 6, 18 and 24 hours after OPCABG. On the contrary, R wave amplitude of V4 and V5 on anterior electrocardiographic lead decreased significantly on 0, 6 and 18 hours after CABG (P<0.01), and came back to preoperative values 24 hours after operation. The levels of CPK-MB and cTnI reached its peak and higher significantly for CABG than those for OPCABG on 24 hours after operation, 29.29 μg/L vs 5.98 μg/L and 6.74 μg/L vs 1.91 μg/L respectively. HSP70 increased significantly on 6 hours after operation in two groups, but median of HSP70 was higher significantly in CABG group (11044.5 pmol/L vs1702.0 pmol/L). In the first day after operation the HSP70 peak was correlated significantly with the level of CPK-MB(r=0.370, P<0.01) and cTnI (r=0.458,P<0.01). Conclusions Myocardial damage is significantly alleviated for patients of OPCABG comparing with those of CABG. The HSF70 in circulation may indicate the degree of myocardial damage.

Objective To explore the activity of Elemene for glioma cell from the cellular and molecular level. Methods The human glioma cell U251 was cultured. The effect of Elemene for human glioma cell proliferation was studied by MTT assay. Cell cycle, Fas, PCNA, bcl-2, intracellular Ca~(2+) and apoptosis were evaluated by flow cytometry analysis. Results Elemene exhibited antiproliferative effect on human glioma cell U251 markedly. The fifty percent inhibition on concentration (IC_(50)) of Elemene against glioma cells at different time points. 24 h was 40.60 μg/ml, the 48 h 38.14 μg/ml and the 72 h 34.35 μg/ml.Cell cycle was blocked in the S and G_2/M phases. The apoptosis ratio was increased by Annexin V staining markedly. Elemene decreased the gene expressions of PCNA and Fas, increased the intracellular Ca~(2+). There was no significant effect on the bcl -2 gene expression. Conclusion Elemene exhibits a marked antiproliferative effect on glioma cells and induces apoptosis by decreasing the expression of PCNA and increasing intracellular Ca~(2+). It also influences the expression of Fas. It might have no relationship with bcl-2 gene expression.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the phenotypes and proline-rich transmenbrane protein 2 (PRRT2) gene mutations in patients of infantile convulsions with paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA).
METHODSClinical data were collected from ICCA patients and their family members. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples with standard protocol. Mutations of PRRT2 were screened using PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing.
RESULTSEleven families and one sporadic case with ICCA were recruited in this study. In 11 ICCA families, 49 family members were affected, of which 15 individuals had benign infantile convulsions (BIC) alone, 18 individuals had only paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia(PKD), and 16 individuals had BIC followed by PKD. The seizure onset age of infantile convulsions was between 3 and 12 months. The onset age of PKD was ranging from 5 to 17 years old. Four affected members in two ICCA families had PKD or ICCA co-existing with migraine. The one sporadic ICCA case had afebrile seizures between 3.5 and 4 months, and developed paroxysmal twists of limbs after 3 years and 9 months of age. He had good response to treatment with oxcarbazepine at the age of 4 years and 10 months. PRRT2 mutations were identified in all 11 ICCA families. The most common mutation, c.649_650insC (p.R217PfsX8), was detected in 6 of the 11 families (54.5%). PRRT2 mutation (c.649_650insC) was also found in the sporadic ICCA case, and was identified as de novo mutation.
CONCLUSIONThe phenotype of PKD in ICCA families occurred in childhood or adolescence. Few affected members in some ICCA families may have migraine. PRRT2 is the causative gene of ICCA and the mutation c.649_650insC was the hotspot of PRRT2 mutations. PRRT2 mutation was also found in sporadic case with ICCA.
