Objective To observe the efficacy of ealcitonin and bisphosphonates on renal osteopathy of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD)patients. Methods Forty-three MHD patients were raindomly divided into two groups: A group and B group. All the patients were routinely received oral calcium carbonate 1.0 g tid and calcitriol 0.25 μg qd. Calcitonin (20U) hypodermic injection was given three times a week additionally during hemodialysis in A group. Patients in B group received bisphosphonates 70 mg once a week based on the therapy of A group. Serum levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (AKP), bone mass density (BMD) of lumbar spine and femoral neck, and the degree of bone ache (visual analogue scale, VAS) were assessed before the therapy and 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. The adverse reactions were recorded during treatment. Results The levels of AKP and iPTH in both two groups decreased significantly after treatment. The above values of pre-treatment and 12 months after treatment were as follows: AKP(U/L)of A group 244.05±41.99 and 148.35±27.71,of B group 245.60±40.86 and 143.40±28.03;PTH(ng/L) of A group 697.5±119.7 and 267.4±45.9,of B group 708.2±120.3 and 277.6±41.9 (all P<0.05). While the levels of calcium and phosphorus did not change obviously during treatment (P>0.05). BMD was not improved at 3, 6 mouths and became better at 12 mouths after treatment. As compared to pre-treatment, BMD of lumbar spine(g/cm2) in A group was 1.062±0.223 vs 1.202±0.251 ,in B group 1.033±0.152 vs 1.189±0.225; BMD of femoral neck (g/cm2)in A group was 0.993±0.108 vs 1.067±0.095,in B group 0.947±0.083 vs 1.018 ±0.217 (all P<0.05). The scores of VAS also decreased significantly at 3, 6, 12 months after treatment(P<0.05). No severe adverse reaction was found during the treatment. Conclusions Utilization of calcitonin and combination with bisphosphonates during bemodialysis can effectively preserve the BMD and prevent bone loss in MHD patients and is well tolerated. No significant difference of therapeutic effect is observed between using ealcitonin or combination with bisphosphonates.

Objective To investigate the effects and the mechanism of tirofiban administration in myocardial ischemical reperfusion injury(MIRI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Method The study included 158 STEMI Patients who accepted primary PCI therapy and were randomly (random number) divided into two groups: tirofiban administration group and control group. Incidence of MIRI during PCI, Correct TIMI frame count(CTFC), ST segment resolution(STR), peak value and peak time of MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase( CK-MB), and incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during 30 days postoperation in both groups were measured. Results Tirofiban administration group was superior to control group in terms of incidence of MIRI, CTFC, STR, peak value and peak time of CK-MB, and incidence of MACE during 30 days postoperation (P < 0.05). Multiple factor logistic regression analysis indicated that intravenous tirofiban administration before primary PCI was the independently protective factor for MIRI. Conclusions Intravenous tirofiban administration in patients with STEMI before primary PCI can significantly decrease the incidence of MIRI,reduce myocardial damage and improve the prognosis.

Objective To construct a fusion protein to transfect some cell lines that were difficult to be transfected such as neoplastic cells, nerve cells, stem cells. Methods PCR was performed to amplified protein transductions domain(PTD),G4S and streptavidin (Strep).Enzymatic digestion and ligation were used to construct pAYZ-PTD-Strep plasmid. Fusion protein was induced to express by AP5 medium and was isolated by E-tag affinity chromatography. Fusion protein was identified by Western blot. eGFP was trasfected into U937 cells by pAYZ-PTD-Strep. FACS was performed to detect transfection percentage. Results Fusion protein PTD-G4S-Strep was expressed as soluble protein.The concentration of fusion protein was about 0.7 mg/L,and purity was over 90 %. The protein could carry plasmid into a suspended cell line, U937 cells. The transfection-efficiency of protein was higher than monometer PTD.Conclusion The protein PAYZ-PTD-Strep could carry macromolecules into blood tumor cells,and its biological activity may be expected to develop into a highly efficient and reliable transfection method.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of the soluble A? oligomers-induced alteration of synaptic proteins. Methods This study applied immunocytochemistry technique to investigate the changes of the expression of postsynaptic density-95(PSD-95) in primary hippocampal neurons, which was exposed to A?_ 25-35 after NMDAR antagonist or agonist treatment. Results The results showed that A?_ 25-35 downregulated PSD-95 protein in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Treatment of cells with MK801 (a general NMDA receptor antagonist) prevented A?-induced PSD-95 degradation. Moreover, when extrasynaptic NMDA receptors were blocked by ifenprodil (a NR2B subunit specific antagonist), the A?-induced downregulation of PSD-95 was significantly attenuated. Whereas, when synaptic NMDA receptors were blocked by bicuculline (a GABA receptor antagonist) in combination with MK801, the PSD-95 degradation did not change significantly.Conclusion The results suggest that A?-induced downregulation of PSD-95 depends on NMDAR activity, and extrasynaptic NMDA receptors may be involved in A?-induced synaptic protein degradation.
