Objective To compare the serum estradiol level of gouty patients with healthy controls and to investigate whether estradiol upregulatesthe expression of the uric acid transporter ATP-binding cassette superfamily member 2 (ABCG2) of human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2)..Methods Serum of 16 male gout patients and 16 male healthy controls and their estradiol level were assessed with ELISA.The HK-2 cells wer cultured with different concentrations of estradiol for 24 hours or 48 hours.mRNA expression of ABCG2 was assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).HK-2 cells were cultured with estradiol or estradiol and inhibitor of PI3K/Akt pathway LY294002.mRNA expression of ABCG2 was assessed by qPCR,while the Akt,p-Ser473-Akt,p-Thr308-Akt and ABCG2 expression were investigated by Western blot.Data was analyzed using either the one-way analysis of variance or the t test.Results The level of serum uric acid in gout patients was [(547±18) μmol/L],which was significantly higher than that of healthy controls [(344±12) μmol/L),t=-5.395,P＜0.01].The level of estradiol in gout patients was (45±6) μmol/L,which was significantly lower than that of healthy controls [(100±8) μmol/L,t=9.375,P＜0.01].The mRNA expression of ABCG2 of 10-4 mol/L estradiol group was elevated after 24 hours or 48 hours (t=3.168,t=3.990;P＜0.01).In the group of co-stimulation withestradiol and LY294002,the ABCG2,p-Ser473-Akt and p-Thr308-Akt expression were down regulated compared to the estradiol group.Conclusion There is a significant correlation between serum estradiol and uric acid.Estradiol inducesthe expression of ABCG2 of HK-2 cells by activating PI3K/Akt pathway.

[Objective]To study the dental status,the development of jaw and the size of sella turcica of children with ectoder-mal dysplasia(ED).[Methods]Panaramic radiography and lateral cephalograms of six ED individuals(age range of 6~7 years,five males and one female)were obtained. The dental status was record. 17 measurements about the jaws and the sella turcica were mea-sured and compare them to Chinese children without ED syndrome.[Results]The mean number of missing teeth was 22.3 in perma-nent dentition and 16.2 in primary dentition;The teeth that most likely to absent were permanent lateral incisor ,maxillary first premo-lar,maxillary primary lateral incisor and mandibular primary central incisor,and all remaining teeth are in conical shape. Lateral cephalometric measurements showed that all ED subjects had lower ANS-Ptm,which suggested a short maxilla. Low Co-Po,ANB, NA-PA,N-Me,N-ANS and ANS-Me values that were found in all subjects,as well as low SNA,Y-axis,MP-FH,S-Co,and high SNB,NP-FH,NP-FH that were noted in some subjects showed counterclockwise rotation and protrusion of mandible with short-er length in ED subjects. Some subjects had low ANS-Me/N-Me × 100%and high N-ANS/N-Me × 100%,representing a short facial height. Five cases represented lower length and diameter of sella turcica;two cases showed lower depth of sella turcica ,indicating the abnormal development of sella turcica.[Conclusion]The results of this study suggest that the dentition ,jaws and sella turcica in ED children differs when compared to individuals without this syndrome.

To study the transport mechanisms of drugs for transplacental treatment of fetal tachyarrhythmia, MDCKII-BCRP and MDCKII cell models was used. MDCKII-BCRP and MDCKII cell monolayer model was used to investigate the bi-direction transport of sotalol, propranolol, propafenone, procainamide and flecainide. Drug concentrations were measured by HPLC-UV or chemiluminescence. The apparent permeability coefficient (P(app)), efflux rate (R(E)) and net efflux rate (R(net)) were calculated. Drugs with R(net) greater than 1.5 were further investigated using cellular accumulation experiments with or without a BCRP inhibitor. The R(net) of sotalol, propranolol, propafenone and procainamide were less than 1.5, while R(net) of flecainide with concentrations of 20 and 5 μmol x L(-1) were 1.6 and 1.9, respectively. The results showed that the transport of flecainide on MDCKII-BCRP cell monolayer could be mediated by BCRP; and the affinity increased when the concentration of flecainide decreased. Cellular accumulation experiments further suggested that accumulation of flecainide in MDCKII-BCRP cells was significantly lower than that in MDCKII cells in a concentration-dependent manner. BCRP inhibitor quercetin (50 μmol x L(-1)) significantly increased the accumulation of flecainide in MDCKII-BCRP cells (P < 0.05). Our preliminary data showed that flecainide but not sotalol, propranolol, propafenone or procainamide can be a substrate of BCRP. Thus the effect of flecainide may be affected by the BCRP in the maternal placental trophoblast membrane layer when treating fetal tachyarrhythmia.

AIM: To investigate the effects of anisodamine on the sodium current (I_(Na)) in left ventricular myocytes of rabbit heart undergoing ischemia/reperfusion, so as to explore the cellular (ionic) basis of anisodamine treatment for antiarrhythmia. METHODS: Forty-five rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: ischemic/reperfusion group (I/R), anisodamine intervention group (Ani+I/R) and sham-operated control group (CON). Anesthetized rabbits were subjected to 30 min ischemia by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery and 60 min reperfusion. The animals in Ani group were injected with anisodamine at a dose of 5 mg/kg via femoral vein 1 min before operation. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmia was observed. Single ventricular myocytes were isolated enzymatically from the epicardial zone of the infracted region derived from the hearts in I/R, Ani+I/R group and the same anatomy region in CON. Whole cell patch clamp technique was used to record I_(Na). RESULTS: Anisodamine intervention decreased the incidence and duration of ventricular arrhythmia by reperfusion compared to I/R group, resulting in significant decrease in the scores of arrhythmia (2.6±0.7 vs 3.6±0.8, P<0.05). The peak I_(Na) current density (at-30 mV) was significantly decreased in I/R group (-22.46±5.32 pA/pF, n=12) compared to CON (-42.78±5.48 pA/pF, n=16, P<0.01), while it was significantly increased in Ani+I/R group (-38.89±5.24 pA/pF, n=13) compared to I/R group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Anisodamine has the ability to reduce the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmia. Ischemia-reperfusion induces significant down-regulation of I_(Na), while pretreatment with anisodamine attenuates this change, suggesting that anisodamine reverses this electrical remodeling, which may be partly responsible for its antiarrhythmia effects.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of digital subtraction bone removal CT angiography (DS-BR-CTA) and dual energy bone removal CTA (DE-CTA) compared with conventional and rotational DSA. Methods A total of 264 patients underwent 3D-DSA were enrolled, 190 of them underwent also DS-BR-CTA, while 74 underwent DE-CTA as well. Aneurysms detected with DS-BR-CTA and DE-CTA were analyzed compared with 3D-DSA on per-patient and per-aneurysm basis. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of two methods for diagnosis of aneurysm were calculated. Results Taking DSA as the standard, the sensitivity and specificity of DS-BR-CTA to detect intracranial aneurysms was 96.90％ and 98.36％ on per-patient basis, while 97.37％ and 99.97％ on per-aneurysm basis, and the sensitivity and specificity for the detection of aneurysm ≤3 mm was 88.89% and 98.36%. The sensitivity and specificity of DS-BR-CTA to detect intracranial aneurysms was 98.25% and 100% on per-patient basis, 95.52% and 100% on per-aneurysm basis, and the sensitivity and specificity for the detection of aneurysm ≤3 mm was 90.91% and 100%. Conclusion DE-CTA has a comparable diagnostic accuracy with DS-BR-CTA to diagnose intracranial aneurysms, and can be used in the routine workflow for detection of intracranial aneurysms.
