1.Pathogenesis and clinical features of cerebral small vessel disease
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2011;19(8):620-624
Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is an important subtype of cerebrovascular disease. It is also one of the major reasons for resulting in vascular cognitive impairment or dementia in the elderly. SVD is a small arteriovenous lesion in subcortex caused by a variety of causes, mainly causing subcortical lacunar infarction, white matter damage, microblecds and other pathological changes. There is evidence that vascular endothelial function and blood-brain barrier damage may result in small vessel structures and perivascular changes, which may be the initial factors.of causing SVD. Genetic susceptibility is also one of the risk factors that can not be ignored.

To explore the protective effect of adenovirus mediated IGF-Ⅰgene(Ad-IGF-Ⅰ)transfer on non-obese diabetic(NOD)mice. The results showed that the incidence of diabetes and degree of insulitis were significantly reduced in mice receiving Ad-IGF- Ⅰ . Treatment with Ad-IGF- Ⅰ significantly decreased apoptosis rate,expression of Fas and caspase-3, and increased expression of Bcl-xl. This study indicates the potential of IGF- Ⅰ gene therapy in protecting NOD mice from insulitis and apoptosis.

BACKGROUND: Few reports concern the effects of dendritic cells-a kind of antigen presenting cells, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) on airway hyperreactivity or inflammation. OBJECTIVE: To construct mice IL-10 recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-mIL-10 to acquire the dendritic cells modified by mIL-10, which can provide a foundation for the further study. METHODS: Mouse IL-10 (mIL-10) gene comprise of enzyme cutting spot was synthesized according to the mIL-10 gene sequence and multiclone spot of adenovirus vector, connected to pMD18-T vector and sequenced. MIL-10 was subcloned to BD Adeno-X~(TM) vector, packed and augmented in HEK 293 cells, following determine the protein expression, and the vector was transfected to mice bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-mIL-10 was successfully synthesized, packed and augmented, which could highly express protein IL-10. Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells were successfully cultured and transduced in vitro. It suggested that it is feasible to transfect mice dendritic cells by Ad-mIL-10 adenovirus vector. The study can provide more sufficient theoretic evidence for the possibility of correlative gene therapy.

Objective To discuss the features of nosocomial infection in patients with multiple trauma in intensive care unit and the preventive measures. Method The nosocomial infections occurred in 137 patients with multiple trauma were analyzed including site of infection, pathogenic organisms and bacterial strains. Results The rate of nosocomial infection was 62.8%, mainly the lower respiratory tract infection and wound infection, the G-negative bacteria infection accounted for 67.8%, mostly Escherichia Coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and A cinctobacter baumanni I. The G-positive bacteria infection accounted for 32.2%, mainly Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase negative staphylococcus. The positive detection rates of Klebsiella and pseudomonas aeruginosa were increasing year afer year. Conclusions The incidence of nosocomial infection in patients with multiple trauma is high, suggesting some appropriate preventive measures should be taken to reduce the rate of infection.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of prostaglandin E2 receptor subtype 3 (EP3) on transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)-induced mouse mesangial cells damage. Methods Primary mouse mesangial cells were separated and cultured. Three siRNAs were synthesized and transfected into mesangial cells for silencing EP3 by LipofectamineTM 2000 and the best one was chosen. MCs were grouped into: (1)control group; (2)TGF-β1 (10 μg/L) group; (3)NC-siRNA plus TGF-β1 (10 μg/L) group; (4) EP3-siRNA group; (5)EP3-siRNA plus TGF-β1 (10 μg/L). Then the proliferation of MCs was evaluated by CCK-8 assay. The expression of PGE2 and cAMP in cell supernatant were detected by ELISA. The mRNA and protein expression of fibronectin (FN), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), membrane-bound prostaglandin E2 synthase 1 (mPGES1) were detected by real - time quantitative PCR and Western blotting. The phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and ERK1/2 was decected by Western blotting. Results Compared with control group, the cell proliferation induced by TGF-β1 was increased (P<0.05), the expression of PGE2 and cAMP were improved, mRNA and protein expression of FN, CTGF, COX2 and mPGES1 were up-regulated (all P<0.05). Compared with TGF-β1 group, the cell proliferation in EP3-siRNA plus TGF-β1 group was reduced, the expression of FN, CTGF, COX2 and mPGES1 mRNA and protein were downregulated (all P<0.05), the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 MAPK were also declined (P<0.05). Conclusion EP3-siRNA may reduce TGF-β1-induced cell damage through upregulating the expression of cAMP, repressing the activity of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK, inhibiting the expression of COX2 mPGES1 and PGE2 by feedback, then decreased the expression of FN and CTGF.
