Objective To investigate the effect of atorvastatin on vascular endothelial cell function and vasoactive substances in essential hypertensive patients without hyperlipemia. Methods Sixty-five essential hypertensive(EH) patients without hyperlipemia were enrolled and randomly divided into atorvastatin group and conventional treatment group(oral taken atorvastatin or placebo once every night in addition of routine antihypertensive drugs).Twenty five healthy subjects were also recruited as control.All cases were followed up for eight weeks.Serum cholesterol,nitric oxide(NO),emdothelin-1(ET-1),vonWillebrand-factor(vWF) levels were determined in each case.Flow-medizted dilation(FMD) was determined by high-resolution ultrasonography before and after eight weeks atorvastatin medication.Results (1)Before treatment,the FMD and NO levels of EH group were significantly lower than those of control group(P＜0.01),while the ET-1 and vWF levels of EH group were significantly higher than those of control group(P＜0.01);(2)In EH patients,the FMD and NO levels significantly increased after treatment and increased even more dramatically in atorvastatin group,when compared to conventional treatment group(Ps＜0.01);(3)In EH patients,the ET-1 and vWF levels significantly decreased after treatment and decreased even more dramatically in atorvastatin group,when compared to conventional treatment group(Ps＜0.01).Conclusion In patients of EH without hyperlipemia,atorvastatin can decrease plasma levels of ET-1,vWF,while increase plasma NO concentration and improve vascular endothelial function.

Objective To study the in vitro antifungal activity of novel 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles. MethodsSixteen novel 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles compounds have been designed, synthesized and characterized by 1HNMR, LC-MS spectra. Their antifungal activities were evaluated with six tested pathogenic fungi in vitro. Results All the title compounds exhibited potent antifungal activities against Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans, Candida parapsilosis, Candida tropicalis, and Trichophyton rubrum, but not Aspergillus fumigatus. The activities of compound 14, 17 and 18 against Candida atbicans and Cryptococcus neoformans (with the MIC80 0.25 μg/ml) were similar to that of fluconazole. The activities of compound 14 and 17 against Trichophyton rubrum (with the MIC80 0.25 μg/ml) were 2 times as high as that of fluconazole and were similar to that of ketoconazole. Conclusion The 1,2,3-triazole can be efficiently introduced to 1,3,4-oxadiazoles compounds by intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. All the title compounds exhibit certain antifungal activities with broad spectrum. The substituent of the benzene plays an important role in improving the antifungal activity of the compound.

Objective To investigate the effects of ketamine on anoxia-reoxygenation(A/R)induced glutamate release from cerebral cortex neurons.Methods Primary cultured neurons obtained from cerebral cortex of fetal Wistar rats(16-18 d)were randomly divided into 3 groups:Ⅰcontrol group;ⅡA/R group andⅢketamine pretreatment+I/R group.The control group was not subjected to A/R while A/R group was exposed to anoxic air(95% N_2+5% CO_2)for 5 h followed by 24 h reoxygenation.In groupⅢdifferent doses of ketamine were added to the culture media before anoxia and the final ketamine concentrations were 1,20 and 100?mol?L~(-1) respectively.The extracellular glutamate concentration was detected at the end of 24 h reoxygenation.Results The extracellular glutamate concentration was significantly higher after 24 h reoxygenation in A/R group than in control group.Ketamine 20 and 100?mol?L~(-1) significantly inhibited glutamate release from the neurons induced by A/R in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion Ketamine can inhibit glutamate release from neurons induced by A/R in a dose-dependent manner.

Objective To investigate the dependability between ultrasonic appearances of different degree of acute testicular hemodynamic disorder and contralateral testicular damage.Methods Thirty two white rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups.Group A-C were subjected to testicular ischemia and color Doppler sonography were continuoully performed in each case.The testes were reperfused when the ultrasonic appearances were as follows:homogeneous appearance with reducing of blood perfusion(group A),increased echogenicity and heterogeneity with little blood perfusion(group B).inhomogeneous appearance with small pieces of low echogenic areas and no blood perfusion(group C).Group D was the control group.Histologic structure changes of contralateral testes were observed after reperfusion for a month.The contralateral testes in all the cases underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS)before reperfusion of unilateral testes.Results CEUS time-intensity curve of contralateral testes showed no statistical significance between the four groups(P＞0.05).Focal and mild pathological and ultrastructural changes were observed in contralateral testes in group A-C.But Johnsen score showed no statistical significance between the control group and group A-C(P＞0.05).The total number of appotosis cells per 100 seminiferous tubules in group B(38.75±8.88)were significantly more than the control group(18.63±3.81)as well as group A(20.50±6.12)and group C(18.00±4.47)(P＜0.001),but there were no statistical significances between group A,group C and the control group(P＞0.05).Conclusions Ultrasonic appearances of acute testicular hemodynamic disorder are help for the prediction of contralateral testicular damage.As blood flow in contralateral testes were unaffected after acute testicular hemodynamic disorder,it seems to have no role in contralateral testicular damage.

ObjectiveTo assess the protective effect of ischemic postconditioning in different ways after rabbit's testis completely torsion and detorsion and to assess the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS) in it.MethodsForty male white rabbits were divided into 5 groups randomly:a control group,directly perfusion group (R),ischemic postconditioning groups (IP1,IP2 and IP3),with 8 in each.The acute testicular hemodynamic disorder models were established in R,IP1,IP2,IP3 groups by completely blocking the left testicular blood flow for 4 hours,then group R was directly subjected to perfusion,group IP1 was subjected to 15 s release and 15 s occlusion (15 s/15 s),IP2 was subjected to 30 s/ 30 s,IP3 was subjected to 45 s/45 s,each group was taken 3 cycles.All the groups underwent CEUS before operation and after 3 days,examined for the contents of malonaldehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD) and histology,and observed for the pathobgieal changes of the testicular tissue.ResultsThe CEUS parameters of bilateral testes showed no significantly difference in all group before operation( P ＞0.05),3 days after reperfusion.The half of declining time of intensity was extended significantly in all operation groups comparing with control group (P ＜ 0.05),but the difference of peak and base intensity were increased in group IP1 and IP2,comparing with control group( P ＜0.05).The contents of MDA and SOD were remarkable differences in group IP1,IP2 comparing with group R and IP3 ( P ＜ 0.05).Johnsen' s score,apoptosis index showed significantly differences in group IP1,IP2 comparing with group R and IP3 (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsMicrocirculation of the complete torsion testicular was significantly improved by ischemic postconditioning after reperfusion,and the effects of ischemic postconditioning could be evaluated by CEUS.

Objective To investigate the value of predicting testicular viability following unilateral testicular torsion by color-Doppler ultrasound (CDU). Methods The clinical manifestations, intraoperative findings and scrotol CDU appearances before and after operation of 42 cases with testicular torsion were compared. According to a bleeding test intraoperatively, testicular viability was divided into A-D level. Testis of level A-C would be saved .while the level D removed. Testicular viability assessed by follow-up CDU was then classed into Ⅰ-Ⅲ level. In Ⅰ-Ⅱ level, the salvaged testis were recovery ultimatelybut atrophy in level Ⅲ. Results Seventeen cases of the 42 underwent orchidopexy and the remaining 25 cases underwent orchidectomy. As followed up, however, testis in only 7 cases were recovered, including 2 cases in level A,3 cases in level B and 2 cases in level C. respectively. The preoperative scrotal CDU appearances of the recovered testis were mainly as follows: ① Homogeneous parenchyma with decreased or disappeared blood perfusion. ②Sheet or radial hypoechoic in the local testis but with preserved blood perfusion in most area else. Testis in the remaining 10 patients, including 8 cases in level C and 2 cases in level D, respectively, were atrophy finally. And large radial hypoechoic or diffuse inhomogeneous echo with none or a small amount of blood supply on the edge parenchyma were found during their preoperative CDU (similar CDU performance was present in the orchidectomy group. The CDU appearances of contralateral testes both in orchidopexy and orchidectomy group were not obviously abnormal during follow-up. Conclusions The scrotal CDU examination is competent to predict testicular viability after detorsion. In addition, timely operation would be a key to CDU evaluation.

Objective To explore the changes of Sema3A and it′s receptor Npl in temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE)rat brain and the roles in epileptogenesis mechanism.Methods TLE model was established with male healthy SD rats,in which mossy fiber sprouting(MFS)was verified using Neo-Timm staining method.Sema3A mRNA,Npl mRNA and protein was respectively analyzed by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization in the entorhinal cortex(EC)or dentate gyrus(DG)at different time after LiCL-PILO induced TLE.Results There were Mossy fiber sprouting(7d:0.70?0.42,15d:1.50?0.52,30 d:2.20 ?0.41,60 d:2.50?0.51)in DG inner molecular layer(IML)of TLE rat compared with those of controls (P

Objective To explore the application value of plastic biliary stent and fully covered self-expandable metallic stent (FCSEMS) in endoscopic retrograde cholangio pancreatography (ERCP) for treatment of benign biliary stricture after liver transplantation.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinical data of 54 patients with benign biliary stricture after liver transplantation undergoing ERCP treatment who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between January 2010 and August 2016 were collected.Among 54 patients,44 had simple anastomotic stricture and 10 had non-anastomotic stricture.All the patients underwent stent implantation by ERCP.Patients with stricture within 1 month postoperatively initially selected single plastic stent or endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD),and then changed into multiple plastic stents at the second stent replacement.Patients with stricture after 1 month postoperatively selected multiple plastic stents,multiple plastic stents after balloon dilation or FCSEMS.Observation indicators:ERCP situations,stent implantation,time of stent indwelling,postoperative complications,stent dislocation,treatment outcome and follow-up situations.Patients were followed up by outpatient examination and telephone interview up to November 2016.Clinical symptoms of patients were observed within 1 month postoperatively and liver function and abdominal ultrasound were retested.Liver function and remission degree of biliary stricture were monitored regularly once every 3 months.Measurement data were described as average (range).Results All the patients underwent successful ERCP,of which 53 completed the process of ERCP and 1 rejected treatment due to economic problems.All the 54 patients received 140 times ERCPs with an average of 2.59 times per person,21 times ENBDs,11 times FCSEMSs and 108 times plastic stent implantations (including 35 times single stent implantations,46 times double stents implantations,23 times 3-stents implantations and 4 times 4-stents implantations).All the 54 patients were followed up for 3-143 months,with an average time of 73 months.Of 44 with anastomotic stricture,34 received plastic stent implantation and 98 times ERCPs,with an average number of stent implantation of 2 (range,1-4) and an average time of stent indwelling of 10.7 months (range,9.0-13.0months);the postoperative acute pancreatitis,biliary infection,hyperamylasemia and adverse stent implantation or dislocation were detected in 4 persons every time,7 persons every time,10 persons every time and 3 persons every time,respectively;26 patients were cured and 5 were improved,with an effective rate of 91.2％ (31/34);3 patients with noneffective treatment continued to undergo ERCP and 3 patients had recurrence of anastomotic stricture.Among 10 patients with initial FCSEMS implantation,12 times ERCPs were performed,with an average time of stent indwelling of 7.6 months (range,6.0-12.0 months);postoperative biliary infection,hyperamylasemia and stent dislocation were detected in 1 person every time,1 person every time and 1 person every time,respectively;8 patients were cured,with an effective rate of 8/10;of 2 patients with persistent stricture,1 patient received contrast examination after stent removal,showing a comparative stricture in level 1 branch of intrahepatic duct and considering combined ischaemia,and then underwent the second implantation using multiple plastic stents;the other patient had elevated level of jaundice at 3 months after stents removal and received ERCP,showing anastomotic inflammatory polyp,and then underwent FCSEMS implantation again.Ten patients with non-anastomotic stricture received plastic stent implantation and 30 times ERCPs,with an average number of stent implantation of 3 (range,2-4) and an average time of stent indwelling of 11.3 months (range,10.0-14.0 months);the postoperative acute pancreatitis,biliary infection,hyperamylasemia and adverse stent implantation or dislocation were detected in 2 persons every time,5 persons every time,2 persons every time and 1 person every time,respectively;3 patients were cured and 3 were improved,with an effective rate of 6/10;of 4 patients with noneffective treatment,2 died of gradually deteriorating liver function and 2 underwent the second liver transplantation.Conclusions Stent implantation in ERCP is safe and effective for treatment of benign biliary stricture after liver transplantation,single plastic stent should be used in the early period (within 1 month) and multiple plastic stents should be used in the later period.Although FCSEMS has a higher displacement rate,it should be recommended due to a better clinical effect,lower incidence of complications and simple operation.For patients with non-anastomotic stricture,plastic stent should be used for extrahepatic biliary stricture,with a good clinical effect,and there is worse effect in stent implantation through ERCP for multiple intrahepatic biliary strictures.

Objective To analyze the differential proteomics of ASMC stimulated by wild IL-13 and mutant IL-13 and to investigate the relations of protein profiles of ASMC to asthma and possible targets for the treatment of bronchial asthma.Methods The total proteins of ASMC stimulated by wild IL-13 and mutant IL-13 were separated by immobilized pH gradient(IPG)-based 2-DE and the differentially expressed protein spots were identified by matrix assisted laser desorption-time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS). Results The 2-DE detected approximately(840?21)spots on wild IL-13 samples and(892?17)spots on mutant IL-13 samples(n=3)and(685?19)spots matched.Six significantly differential proteins were subjected to MALDI-TOF-MS analysis and three of them were identified as stathmin 1,Ribosomal protein p~0 and NADH dehydrogenase.Conclusions ASMCs stimulated by wild IL-13 and mutant IL-13 present different proteomic profiles that may shed some light on the mechanism for the asthma causing effect of wild IL-13 and mutant IL-13.
