Objective To investigate the incidence and clinical characteristics and look for assay or examination indexes or indicators with higher sensitivity and specificity of heart damage induced by exhaustive exercise in order to establish its preliminary clinical classification and diagnostic criteria. Methods In a military region for training staff,the clinical data of 88 soldiers who were admitted to the departments of cardiology in 6 general or central hospitals because of exhaustive exercise from January 2000 to December 2010 were analyzed. The myocardial enzyme, electrocardiogram(ECG),echocardiography and other related examination indexes or indicators were observed,and the changes of symptoms,signs and other relevant assay and examination indexes before and after treatment were recorded. Results Exhaustive exercise could cause the symptoms such as chest tightness,palpitations,chest pain, dizziness,shortness of breath,fatigue,syncope and other symptoms,as well as cardiac auscultation abnormalities. After treatment, aspartate aminotransferase〔AST(U/L):20.34±6.33 vs. 35.43±25.25〕,α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase〔α-HBDH(U/L):130.47±9.04 vs. 168.93±62.69〕,lactate dehydrogenase〔LDH(μmol?s-1?L-1):2.48±0.62 vs. 3.58±1.34〕,creatine kinase〔CK(U/L):125.58±67.56 vs. 556.42±381.89〕,creatine kinase isoenzyme〔CK-MB(U/L):11.20±4.08 vs. 23.09±15.61〕were significantly lower than those before treatment(P<0.05 or P<0.01);cardiac troponin T(cTnT)was detected in 5 patients,its level after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment(μg/L:0.07±0.05 vs. 1.26±0.78,P<0.05). The ECG abnormalities included primarily sinus bradycardia (16 cases),sinus arrhythmia (13 cases) and premature ventricular contractions (11 cases). Echocardiographic abnormalities appeared in 18 cases,they were chiefly as follows:valvular regurgitation, cardiac dysfunction,cardiac enlargement,etc,among which the most common one was valvular regurgitation(all the refluxes were of small amount). Based on the above clinical manifestations and examination results,the exhaustive cardiac injuries were preliminarily divided into common type(20 cases),arrhythmia type(56 cases),heart failure type(2 cases)and sudden death(10 cases). Conclusions The clinical manifestations of exhaustive heart damage may appear in different types. Abnormal changes of myocardial enzymes,ECG and echocardiography are the strong evidences for the damage. Clinicians should pay attention to its prevention and treatment.

Objective To study the effect of mechanical tension on collagen arrangement and illustrate the relationship between tissue architecture and tension properties. Methods Cell morphologies, orientation and collagen arrangement of fibroblasts cultured in three different types of collagen gels with variation of mechanical tension were observed by phase contrast photomicrographs, light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Expression and distribution of a-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were investigated by immunohistochemistry. Results Phase contrast photomicrographs, light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed high level of tension distributed anisotropically in the monolayer gels and the anchored collagen gels, with bipolar shape of the fibroblasts, obvious polarity, arrangement of exogenous collagen fibres parallel to the long axis of the fibroblasts, especially prominent in monolayer gels. Low level of tension distributed isotropically was observed in floating collagen gels, with stellate morphology and arrangement of exogenous collagen fibres in a reticular array. Immunofluorescence showed that fibroblasts expressed high level of α-SMA protein distributed along the long axis of fibroblasts in the monolayer gels and the anchored collagen gels, especially in former ones. In contrast, few expression of α-SMA protein was found in floating collagen gels. Cell morphologies and orientation, expression and distribution of α-SMA as well as collagen arrangement of fibroblasts in the monolayer gels and the anchored collagen gels were similar to those in granulation tissue, whereas floating collagen gels resembled normal dermis or remodelled tissues. Conclusions Tissue architecture or morphology of the dermis are corresponding to tension proporties. Different tissue architectures are closely correlated with particular tension proporties.

The synchronized HeLa cells were used to study the effect of protein kinase A(PKA) inhibitor on the progression of S phase. Synchronized cell s in S phase were obtained by the method of TdR double block through 3H-T dR incorporation assay. The PKA inhibitor typeⅢ obviously increased the level of 3H-TdR incorporation of S phase in HeLa cells. In contrast with contro l, the activity of thymidine kinase (TK) in S phase increased, too. It indicated that PKA played an inhibitory role in S phase progression of HeLa cells. With t he method of Western blotting, the PKA inhibitor typeⅢ enhanced the level of C yclinA and PCNA, inhibited the expression of p21, which is a negative regulator of cell cycle, but had no effect on the expression of CDK2. The results showed t hat PKA could negatively regulate the S phase progression by affecting the level of CyclinA, PCNA and influencing the expression of p21 protein. This may be one of the molecular mechanisms which is involved in the negative regulation of S p hase progression by PKA in HeLa cells.

Objective To study the effect of morin on LPS induced acute lung injury mouse model and its mechanism .Meth‐ods Thirty male C57B/L mice were randomly divided into control group ,LPS group and LPS+ morin group ,with 10 in each group .5 mg/kg LPS was instilled into the lung from an trachea intubation in LPS group and LPS+morin group .Then the mice in LPS+morin group received an intraperitoneal injection of morin (40 mg/kg) every day for the next 3 d .Others received an equal a‐mount of saline .After 72 h ,the mice were sacrificed .The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected and centrifuged;the sediments were stained with Wright‐Giemsa for total cell and neutrophil count and the supernates were prepared for ELISA .The wet and dry weight of lung was weighed to calculate the wet/dry weight ratio .HE staining was performed to examine the pathologi‐cal change of lung .Western blot was used to determined the expression of TLR4 ,IKK and NF‐κB .Results Intratracheal instillation of LPS successfully established ALI model in mouse .LPS caused significant pathological changes including inflammatory cells infil‐tration ,alveolar septa thickness ,hemorrhage and edema .The wet/dry weight ratio ,the total cell count ,neutrophil count ,TNF and IL‐1βlevel in BALF ,and the expression of TLR4 ,NF‐κB ,and IKK were all increased significantly (P<0 .05) ,which were allevia‐ted by intraperitoneal injection of morin .Conclusion Morin can dampen the inflammatory response during LPS induced ALI in mouse ,which is potentially attributed to its inhibitory effect on the activation of NF‐κB .

Objective To detect the histological characteristics of collagen nodules from hypertrophic scars (HS) and investigate the origin of collagen nodules.Methods The scar tissues were collected from patients with plastic operation.Morphological characteristics of collagen nodules were observed by light microscopy of HE-stained sections; expressions of type Ⅰ /Ⅲ collagens were observed by polarized light microscopy of sirius red-stained sections; expression and distribution of myofibroblasts (MFb)-specific protein (α-smooth muscle actin,α-SMA) were observed by immunostaining in order to observe level of local tissue tension.Results Collagen nodules varied in shape,not only sphereshaped,and in size.Moreover,abundant fibroblasts (Fb) with large and light-stained nuclei were seen in the nodules compared to non-nodule area,indicating that the cells located in the modules were active.Some collagen nodules were composed largely of collagen type Ⅲ (green),but some mainly contained collagen type Ⅰ (red or yellow),indicating the difference in the time of nodule formation.α-SMA was expressed mainly in the deep dermis equivalent to the level of reticular layer of the new scar tissues (2 months after injury) ; α-SMA was expressed mainly in the nodules of the old scar tissues (2-10 years after injury),but almost not in non-nodule areas except for a strongly positive staining in the vessels.Moreover,α-SMA presented a heterogeneous distribution in the collagen nodules,with stronger expression in the epidermal end than in the subcutaneous tissue end and stronger expression in the superficial dermis than that in the deeper part.It was suggested that there existed massive amount of MFb and high tension in the nodules arid that the tension distribution was not uniform in or between the nodules.Conclusions Collagen nodules are of varying shape and size and collagen types are associated with the time of nodule formation.Moreover,Formation of the collagen nodules may be closely related to the distribution and evolution of the local tissue tension.
