Objecfive To investigate the change of V-ATPase B subunits on epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)in rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK52E) stimulated by transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1). Methods NRK52E cells were stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for O h(control),12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h after sefrum-free culture for 24 h.The mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin,α-SMA,B2 and B1 subunits of V-ATPase were detected by real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results After stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for 48 h,the expression of α-SMA was markedly increased(P<0.05),but the expression of E-cadherin was dramatically decreased(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the expressions of V-ATPase subunit B2 was significantly increased (P<0.05).However,the B1 subunit distributed rarely in NRK 52E cells,and did not increase after TGF-β1 stimulation.Double-label immunofluoerscence staining also showed that the V-ATPase B2 subunit was increased in the cytosol.tending to accumulate to the cell membrane after TGF-β1 stimulation. Conclusions The main isoform of V-ATPase distributed in NRK52E cells is B2 subunit.B2 subunit is increased alone with TGF-β1-induced EMT.It may suggest that V-ATPase B2 subunit may play a potential role in TGF-β1-induced tubular EMT and renal fibrosis.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of adult offspring rats'anxiety-like behavior induced by parents experienced morphine addiction and withdrawal.MethodsEstablishing the model of Sprague-Dawley rats morphine addiction,Male and female rats were mated after morphine withdrawal 21 days.Meaning-while,saline control group was established in the same method.5 female and 5 male offspring's brains were obtained to observe the neuronal morphology of hippocampal CA1 through Golgi staining when they were 8 weeks old,the same number of female and male's hippocampus were derived after deeply anesthetized to perform the whole genome expression profiles analysis.ResultsThe total length and the number of basal dendrites branches on hippocampal CA1 neurons in offspring of morphine groups were significantly decreased compared to the offspring of saline group.Comparison with the offspring of saline group,663 up-regulated genes (ratios ≥2.0) and 499 down-regulated genes ( ratios ≤0.5 ) were detected in the male offspring of morphine groups,and 350 up-regulated genes (ratios ≥2.0) and 188 down-regulated genes (ratios ≤0.5) were done in the female.Furthermore,they included many genes associated with regulation of emotional behavior,such as 5-HT2c receptor up-regulation 7-fold,Igf-2 up-regulation 7.1-fold and reelin down-regulation 3.3-fold were observed.ConclusionExperienced morphine addiction and withdrawal in parents prior to mating leads to dysplasia of dendritic morphology in hippocampal CA1 neurons of adult offspring rats,and 5-HT2c,Igf-2,reelin expressing abnormally,which may be the possible mechanism of anxiety-like behavior in adult offspring rats.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of the heparin-binding protein (HBP),procalcitonin (PCT),C-reactive protein (CRP),white blood cell (WBC) in respiratory tract bacterial infection.Methods 66 respiratory tract bacterial infection patients,37 respiratory tract non-bacterial infection patients and 39 control group in the Third Xiangya Hospital from October 2015 to March 2017 was selected as objects in this prospective study.The levels of HBP,PCT and CRP in blood of the objects were tested with ELESA,immunofluorescence assay,immunoturbidimetry respectively;WBC counts were taken by Sysmex XE-5000 blood analyzer.The difference among the three groups was analyzed by Student's t test,one-way ANOVA or Wilcoxon test.Receiver operating characteristic curve was utilized to analyze the diagnostic value of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC in respiratory tract bacterial infection.Results The plasma level of HBP were 36.30 (7.78-89.36) ng/ml,5.57 (4.37-8.23) ng/ml,2.84 (1.53-6.51) ng/ml in respiratory tract bacterial infection group,respiratory tract non-bacterial infection group and control group respectively.The socre of PCT were 0.08 (0.04-0.83) ng/ml,0.09 (0.04-0.30) ng/ml,0.04 (0.03-0.08) ng/ml.The socre of CRP were 56.20 (19.33-76.23) mg/L,34.40 (2.15-83.95) mg/L,(2.20 ± 0.99) mg/L.The socre of WBC count were (10.59 ±4.58) × 109/L,8.40 (5.80-11.88) × 109/L,(6.14± 1.31) × 109/L.There were statistically significant differences in HBP scores between respiratory tract bacterial infection group and respiratory tract non-bacterial infection group or control group (Z =-4.828,P ＜0.001;Z =-5.685,P ＜ 0.001).There were no statistically significant differences in PCT,CRP and WBC scores between respiratory tract bacterial infection group and non-bacterial infection group (F =0.045,P ＞ 0.05;F =0.100,P ＞ 0.05;F =2.417,P ＞ 0.05),but significant differences between respiratory tract bacterial infection group and control group (Z =-2.881,P ＜ 0.05;Z =-6.595,P ＜ 0.001;t =6.499,P ＜ 0.001).The area under curve (AUC) of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC diagnosing respiratory tract bacterial infection was 0.89,0.69,0.95 and 0.85 respectively.The AUC of HBP differential diagnosising was 0.80.Conclusion HBP can be used as an efficient supplementary indicator for respiratory tract bacterial infection,the differential diagnostic value is superior to PCT,CRP and WBC.

Objective: To observe the influences of different follow-up methods on rehabilitation and compliance of patients with severe scar after burns. Methods: From January 2012 to May 2016, medical records of 116 patients with severe scar after burns who were admitted to our unit, discharged after wound healing and conforming to the criteria, were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into face-to-face follow-up group [n=59, 45 males and 14 females, aged (36±9) years] and routine follow-up group [n=57, 44 males and 13 females, aged (35±9) years] based on different follow-up methods they received. On the day of discharge and in post discharge month (PDM) 1, 3, and 6, the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) was used to evaluate the hypertrophic scar in joints, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale was used to evaluate the disability of patients in the 2 groups. In PDM 1, 3, and 6, Medical Compliance Behavior Questionnaire was used to investigate the medical compliance behaviors of patients in the 2 groups. Data were processed with chi-square test, t test with Bonferroni correction, and analysis of variance for repeated measurement. Results: (1) The VSS score of patients in face-to-face follow-up group on the day of discharge was (11.1±0.7) points, which was close to (11.7±0.7) points of routine follow-up group (t=2.021, P>0.05). The VSS scores of patients in face-to-face follow-up group in PDM 1, 3, and 6 were (10.5±0.6), (8.6±0.7), and (4.7±0.5) points, which were significantly lower than (11.4±0.7), (10.9±1.0), and (9.4±0.8) points of routine follow-up group respectively (t=2.034, 2.033, 2.042, P<0.05 or P<0.01). (2) The ADL score of patients in face-to-face follow-up group on the day of discharge was close to that of routine follow-up group (t=1.781, P>0.05). The ADL scores of patients in face-to-face follow-up group in PDM 1, 3, and 6 were higher than those of routine follow-up group respectively (t=9.683, 8.584, 9.772, P<0.01). (3) The compliance rates of consisted rehabilitation, reasonable diet, and timing consultation of patients in face-to-face follow-up group were better than those of routine follow-up group respectively (χ²=19.015, 13.251, 8.652, P<0.01). Conclusions Compared with routine follow-up by phone, face-to-face follow-up can do better in evaluating the scar condition and ADL of patients with severe scar after burns, and improve the medical compliance rates of patients, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
