Drug Evaluation Research 2017;40(2):233-236
Objective To investigate the myocardial protective effects of rosuvastatin in patients with unstable angina pectoris undergoing coronary stent implantation.Methods Patients (90 cases) with unstable angina pectoris undergoing coronary stent implantation in No.215 Hospital of Shanxi Nuclear Industry from January 2014 to May 2016 were divided into observation group and control group,45 cases in each group.Patients in the observation group were treated with rosuvastatin,and patients in the control group were treated with atorvastatin.The levels of CK-MB,cTnⅠ,h-FABP,hs-CRP,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-6,IL-10,and IL-18 were compared between two groups.Adverse drug reaction and major adverse cardiac events of two groups were recorded.Results After 24 h operation,the levels of CK-MB,cTnⅠ,hs-CRP,TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-10,and IL-18 of two group were significantly higher than those before operation (P < 0.05),and those in observation group were significantly lower than control group (P < 0.05).There was no difference in h-FABP between two groups before and after operation (P < 0.05).The level of IL-6 in the observation group after operation was higher than that before operation,but the difference was not significant (P < 0.05);The level of IL-6 in the control group was significantly higher than that before operation and that of observation group (P <0.05);The rates of drug adverse reactions and major adverse cardiac events were similar in two groups.Conclusion Compared with same doseatorvastatin,the effects of rosuvastatin in muscle damage and inflammatory response are better,and do not increase adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the effect of pioglitazone (PIO) on the expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ (PPARγ),nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) c-Rel and anti-apoptosis factor Bcl-xL in cultured Wistar rat cortical neurons after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R).Methods The rat cerebral cortical neurons were primarily cultured in vitro and a model of OGD/R was induced.The rats were divided into 7 groups:normal,OGD 4 h/R 6 h,OGD 4 h/R 12 h,OGD 4 h/R 6 h + PIO,OGD 4 h/R 6 h + PPARγ inhibitor T0070907 (TIO),OGD 4 h/R 12 h + PIO,and OGD 4 h/R 12 h + TIO groups.Western blot was used to detect the expression of PPARγ and NF-κB c-Rel protein in neurons.Reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction assay was used to detect the expression of Bcl-xL mRNA in neurons.Results Western blot analysis showed that the expression levels of PPARγ and NF-κB c-Rel proteins after OGD/R were increased significantly compared to those of the normal group (P <0.01).After giving PIO,the expression levels of PPARγ and NF-κB c-Rel proteins were further increased,and they were significantly higher than those in the OGD 4 h/R 6 h and OGD 4 h/R 12 h groups (P <0.01),and after giving TIO,the expression levels of PPARγ and NF-κB c-Rel proteins were decreased,and they were significantly lower than those in the OGD/R group (P <0.05) and the corresponding PIO group (P <0.01).Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that the expression level of Bcl-xL mRNA in the OGD 4 h/R 6 h group was significantly higher than that in the normal group (P <0.01).The expression level of Bcl-xL mRNA in the PIO group was significantly higher than that in the OGD 4 h/R 6 h and OGD 4 h/R 12 h groups (P <0.01).After giving TIO,the expression of Bcl-xL mRNA was decreased.It was significantly lower than that in the OGD/R and corresponding PIO groups (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01).Conclusions PIO can upregulate the expression of PPARγ protein in cultured cortical neurons after OGD/R,and then increase the expression of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-xL mRNA of NF-κB c-Rel regulation.This may be the part mechanism of PPARγ neuroprotective effect.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of intra-arterial thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) for the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease caused by cerebral thrombosis. Methods A total of 245 patients accepted by our hospital during May 2013 and July 2015 were divided into the observation group (n=148) and the control group (n=97). All patients were given conventional process for controling blood pressure and blood lipids. Patients in observation group received intra-arterial thrombolysis with rt-PA, while patients in control group accepted conventional treatment. At the time of admission, the demographic characteristic, vascular influencing factors, baseline clinical findings, laboratory findings and neurological deficits were collected. The improvement of neurological function was evaluated by the modified Rankin scale 3 months after treatment. The levels of fibrinogen (FIB), D-Dimer, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (PT) were measured before and 24 h after the treatment. Results There were no significant differences in demographic characteristic and general clinical data between the two groups ( P>0.05). The proportion of patients with improved neurological function was significantly higher in observation group than that of the control group (83.11%vs. 53.61%, P<0.05). There were no significant difference in coagulation index and fibrinolysis index before treatment between the two groups (P>0.05). Twenty-four hours after the treatment, the levels of FIB, D-Dimer, APTT and PT were significantly improved in the observation group compared with those before treatment. The level of FIB was significantly decreased, D-Dimer was significantly increased, APTT and PT were significantly prolonged in observation group compared with those of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The rt-PA can effectively dissolve thrombosis and correct the coagulation system and fibrinolytic system.
