Objective To elucidate the mechanism of angiotensin (Ang) Ⅱ in regulation of renin synthesis and secretion in primary cultured juxtaglomerular granular cells (JGCs). Methods Mice JGCs were isolated and cultured as described before. Real-time PCR was used to demonstrate the expression of angiotensin converting enzyme (CE) and angiotencin receptor (AT1, AT2) in JGCs. Ang Ⅱ was co-cultured with JGCs stimulated by PGE2 and isoproternol or not. Renin activity in supernatant was detected by radioimmunoassay and renin mRNA expression was examined by real-time PCR. Different concentrations of Ang Ⅱ were co-cultured with JGCs with different time (1 h, 4 h and 24 h), cAMP in cell lysate and supernatant was measured by Cayman Cyclic AMP EIA Kit. The cytoplasmic calcium was decreased by BAPTA-AM, and increased by thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid, which could be used to observe the cAMP concentration affected by calcium. Adenylyl cyclase type 5, 6 (AC5, AC6) mRNA expression of JGCs co-cultured with Ang Ⅱ was measured by real-time PCR. Results Real-time PCR confirmed the expression of ACE and AT mRNA in JGCs of WT mice. Angiotensin Ⅱ reduced renin secretion in primary cultures of JGCs [(370.6±36.9) vs (299.6±25.7) ng AngI'ml~(-1)·h~(-1), P=0.014]. Angiotensin Ⅱ dose-dependently down-regulated forskolin-stimulated cAMP production in JGCs. Thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid decreased cAMP level. BAPTA-AM increased cAMP production obviously [(11.09±0.48) vs (3.55±0.47) nmol/L, P<0.01]. Ang Ⅱ inhibited AC5 mRNA expression by 42.12%, but did not inhibit AC6 mRNA expression. Conclusions Angiotensin Ⅱ can directly inhibit renin synthesis and secrestion maybe through reducing AC-stimulated cAMP levels. Crosstalk between calcium and cAMP system may exist in precise regulation of renin in JGCs.

Abstract: Objective To explore the effects of continuous light and benzene exposure on peripheral blood erythrocyte - Methods parameters and expression of miR 144/451 in the bone marrow of mice. This was a 2×2 factorial design. Photoperiod ， ， factor was set as normal and continuous light levels and mice were treated for 12 hours/12 hours light/dark or 24 hours light - respectively. The benzene exposure factor was set as non exposure and exposure levels. Mice were exposed to benzene by static 3 ， inhalation with a mass concentration of 0.0 and 32.5 mg/m for three hours per day five days per week for a total of four weeks. ， ， Specific pathogen free male C57BL/6 J mice were randomly divided into negative control group simple continuous light group - - ， ， simple benzene exposure group and combined exposure group with 12 mice per group. After benzene exposure peripheral ， blood was collected for the detection of erythrocyte parameters in four periods. After the mice were sacrificed the expression of - - - - miR 451a and miR 144 5p was detected by real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction in bone marrow Results （ ）， ， tissues.

Objective To explore the effects of coincident infection on treatment response and coronary artery lesion (CAL) outcome in children with Kawasaki disease(KD).Methods A retrospective study of 141 children diagnosed on KD between Jul.2005 and Dec.2006 were performed.Standardized clinical assessments,laboratory examinations microbiology test results plus treatment regimens were reviewed.CAL were visualized by using echocardiography.Infectious agents positive (INF+) and negative (INF-) groups were identified,and clinical assessments,laboratory and treatment data were analyzed.Results 1.Concurrent infections:41%(58/141) of children had one of above confirmed infection at KD diagnosis.2.Treatment response:the presence of infection did not alter the response to treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG),with resolution of fever within 72 h in 85% (120/141) children after 1 dose of IVIG (2 g/kg) together with aspirin administration regardless of present or absent infection.3.CAL outcome:in total,56.0% (79/141) of children developed CAL at the time of diagnosis,involving dilatation (91.1%,72/79 cases) and aneurysm (8.9%,7/79 cases),and no giant aneurysm was found.Most CAL were recovered within 1 year after treatment.Incidence of aneurysm in INF+ group was significantly higher than that in INF-group (P=0.019).Conclusions Coincident infection would not affect on the clinical assessment,laboratory test results and treatment response to IVIG in children with KD,but would result in higher risk of serious CAL.Therefore,children with infection at diagnosis on KD will not only accept active treatment in acute phase,but also insist on convalescent care and follow-up visit.

BACKGROUND:Experience of the surgeon has a direct effect on the operation time and the repair effect of percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty. Digital technology-assisted rehabilitation program opened up new ideas. OBJECTIVE:To compare the differences of operation time and repair effect between digital technology and percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty.
METHODS:A total of 64 patients treated with percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty in the Department of Orthopedics of the Second People’s Hospital of Huaian from January 1, 2013 to November 20, 2014 were enroled in this study. Using a randomized controled method, according to the order of admission, odd number received digital technology-assisted percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty (experimental group). Even number received percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty (control group). Onset age, preoperative visual analogue scale score, operation time, 3-day postoperative visual analogue scale score and the decreased value of visual analogue scale score were compared and analyzed between the two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Significant differences in operation time, 3-day postoperative visual analogue scale score and the decreased value of visual analogue scale score were detected between the two groups (P < 0.05), and above indexes were better in the experimental group than in the control group. These findings confirm that digital technology-assisted percutaneous baloon kyphoplasty could significantly shorten operation time, optimize repair program, obtain ideal repair effect and elevate patient satisfaction.

Objective To evaluate the cytogenetic, molecular responses and safety of generic imatinib in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) in 1-year at different stages. Methods From January 2014 to November 2014, 50 CML-CP patients received oral generic imatinib 400 mg/d. The cytogenetic examinations, bcr-abl transcript levels and safety were monitored after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months respectively. Results 46 of 50 patients insisted on oral generic imatinib and followed up 1 year. At 3-month, 52.0 % (26/50) patients reached the complete hematologic responses (CHR) rate, and patients at least achieved minor cytogenetic response (mCyR) and bcr-ablIS≤10 % were 84.0 % (42/50) and 42.0 % (21/50). At 6-month, patients at least achieved part cytogenetic response (PCyR) and bcr-ablIS≤10 %were 73.5 % (36/49) and 59.2 % (29/49). At 12-month, patients achieved complete cytogenetic response (CCyR), bcr-ablIS≤1 % and bcr-ablIS≤0.1 % were 60.9 % (28/46), 63.1 % (29/46) and 45.7 % (21/46). The grade 3 leukopenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia rates were 34 % (17/50), 40 % (20/50) and 30 % (15/50), respectively. No grade 4 hematologic toxicity occurred. The common non-hematologic toxicities included edema [84 % (42/50)], nausea [46 % (40/50)], muscle pain [20 % (10/50)], rash [16 % (8/50)], and impaired liver function [8 % (4/50)]. Conclusion Generic imatinib has a favorable effect in treatment of patients with CML-CP, and without serious adverse reactions.
