Objective To investigate the influence of retinoic acid receptor (RAR-α,RAR-β and RAR-γ)-mediated all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) on renal tissue cell proliferation and apoptosis in rats with diabetic nephropathy,and to analysze the possible mechanism. Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (group N,n=10) and diabetic model group (n=20).Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin(STZ) injection.After successful modeling,the model rats were randomly divided into diabetes group (group D,n=10) and ATRA treatment group (group T,n=10).Rats in group T received ATRA 10 mg·kg-1·d-1 by gavage from the 2nd day of successful modeling for 8 or 12 weeks,meanwhile group N and group D received same volume distilled water.In each group,5 rats were sacrificed respectively at the 8th week or the 12th week,then biochemical markers were measured and kidney pathology was examined.Apoptosis index(AI)of renal tissue cells of each group was tested by TUNEL.The expressions of RAR-α,RAR-β and RAR-γ in renal tissues were tested using indirect immunofluorescence.The expressions of type Ⅰ collagen and laminin as proliferation indicators,along with Smac and caspase-3 as the correlated factors of apoptosis in renal tissue of each group were tested by immunohistochemistry staining.The mRNA expressions of Smac and caspase-3 were tested using real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results Compared with group N,24 h urine protein,serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,ratio of kidney weight/body weight increased significantly (P<0.05,respectively) in group D,and further increased with observation time.Compared with the group D,24 h urine protein and ratio of kidney weight/body weight decreased in group T (P<0.05,respectively).Compared with group D,the group T presented minor pathological changes.TUNEL assay indicated that compared with group N,the group D showed an obvious increase in renal cell apoptosis in time-dependent manner,and the group T showed a decrease compared with the group D (P<0.01,respectively).Compared with group N,the expression of RAR-α and RAR-β positive cells number in group D were decreased (P<0.01,respectively).Compared with group D,the expression of RAR-α and BAR-β positive cells number in group T increased (P<0.01,respectively).Renal tissues of each group did not show expressions of RAR-γ.After 12 weeks,compared with group N,expressions of type-Ⅰ collagen,laminin,Smac and caspase-3 protein in the glomerular mesangial area and basement membrane of renal tissues in group D increased significantly (P<0.01,respectively),and enhanced with time.Compared with the group D,expressions of type Ⅰ collagen,laminin,Smac and caspase-3 protein in group T decreased (P<0.01,respectively).Compared with the group N,group D had an obvious increase in the mRNA expressions of Smac and caspase-3,and a significantly decrease in group T (P<0.01,respectively). Conclusions ATRA may prevent the cell proliferation and apoptosis in diabetic renal tissue through its receptor-mediated pathway,and may protect rats against diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of radiosynovectomy with 32P colloid in haemophilic synovitis of adolescents. MethodsRadiosynovectomy with 32P colloid was primary performed on 26 male haemophilic patients(26 joints),whose average age was 16 years(11 to 21 years).The average dose of 32P colloid was 2.1 mCi(1.0 to 3.0 mCi). Results After 6-month interval,haemarthrosis was reduced by no less than 30% in 23 patients,with a total efficacy of 88.5%.The mean frequency of haemarthrosis was reduced from 1.9 per month of presynovectomy to 0.3 per month of postsynovectomy(P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the incidence and pathogens of infection in 1659 consecutive cases in single center hematological unit.METHODS The incidence,pathogen,and outcome of infection in 1659 hospitalized patients with hematological disorders from 1999 to 2006 were retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS The overall incidence of infection was 24.4% according to the person-times of hospitalization,which included 22.1% of nosocomial infection and 2.3% of community acquired infection.Most of the pathogenic bacteria of the nosocomial infection were Gram-negative.The most common bacteria in the sputum samples included Enterobacter cloacae(19.3%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(14.8%).The most common bacteria in the blood samples were coagulase negative Staphylococcus(CNS,39.3%),the next was Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli.There were 4.21% bacteria resistant to most of antibiotics in nosocomial infection.There were 114 fungi isolated.Candida albicans was accounted for 35.1%.The mortality due to nosocomial infection was 7.4%.CONCLUSIONS The patients in hematology ward are susceptible to infection.The pathogens of nosocomial infection are most likely G-bacteria.Some bacteria are resistant to almost all antibiotics.The incidence of fungal infection is increasing in the near 8 years.

AIM:To study testicular pathological change and its pathogenesis. METHODS:Testicular structure of alloxan induced diabetic rats was observed under light microscopy (LM)and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX),nitric oxide synthase(NOS)and content of malondialdehyde (MDA),nitric oxide(NO) were detected biochemically in testicular homogenate. RESULTS:It is manifestated as atrophy of seminiferous tubule and germinal arrest under LM and expansion of mitochondria and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasmic inclusion of sertoli cell under TEM.Activity of SOD, GSH-PX decreased while activity of NOS, content of MDA, NO increased in diabetic rats compared with control one. CONCLUSION:Disturbance of spermatogenesis and damage of sertoli cell are the main morphological change of diabetic testis, lipid peroxidation and NO may be involved in it.

Objective Neuroinflammation following traumatic brain injury (TBI) may give rise to neurodisorder.This study aimed to investigate the effect of intranasal delivery of nerve growth factor ( NGF) on neuroinflammation following TBI and its action mechanism in rats. Methods Thirty-six male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into a sham , a TBI, and a TBI+NGF group.The rats in the TBI +NGF group were treated with NGF intranasally at 12 and 24 hours after TBI.The levels of IL-1βand TNF-αin the injured cerebral cortex were detected by ELISA , the DNA-binding activity of NF-κB evaluated by EMSA , and the expres-sion of amyloid-β( Aβ42 ) determined by Western blot . Results NGF attenuated the inflammation following TBI .Compared with the TBI group, the level of IL-1βwas obviously decreased in the TBI +NGF group at 12 hours (70.65 ±3.10 vs 37.51 ±1.92) and 24 hours (68.85 ±8.10 vs 36.23 ±2.99, P<0.05), and so was that of TNF-α(47.12 ±7.38 vs 27.63 ±5.77 and 56.15 ±11.20 vs 29.94 ±8.62, P<0.05).The DNA-binding activity of NF-κB was reduced to 111.62 ±0.49 and 131.52 ±0.88, and the expression of Aβ42 to 0.23 ±0.008 and 0.52 ±0.004 at 12 and 24 hours respectively after treatment with NGF , both with statistically significant differences from the TBI group (P<0.05). Conclusion Intranasal administration of NGF attenuates TBI-induced neuroinflamma-tion in rats, which may be associated with its regulatory effect on the Aβ42/NF-κB signaling pathway .
