Nerve growth factor (NGF) has been the focus in area of angiogenesis.In differential,survival,development of nerves,NGF plays a crucial role.In addition,NGF activates migration,differential of endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells,and stimulate the activation of the endothelial progenitor cells in angiogenesis.Crosstalk between vascular endothelial growth factor and NGF is also critical in the development of vessels.The function of NGF in angiogenesis blazes a trail in therapy of ischemia diseases.

Objective To explore the relationship between TCF7L2 genetic polymorphisms with intimal -medial thickness (IMT),carotid arterial stiffness in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)with hypertension. Methods 872 patients of hypertension and T2DM were enrolled into this study,and they were divided into two groups according to IMT,carotid arterial stiffness and cPWV:the observation group(n =432,IMT >1.0mm,cPWV >12m/s),the control group(n =440,IMT≤1.0mm,cPWV≤12m/s).Meanwhile,400 healthy subjects(normal fasting gluose,blood pressure,without diabetes and hypertension family history)were selected as the healthy group.Typed gene polymorphisms of TCF7L2 by RT -PCR,the body mass index(BMI),waist -hip ratio,systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure,total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL -Ch), low -density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL -Ch),insulin sensitivity index(ISI),glycated hemoglobin A1C(HbA1c) between groups were compared.Calculated each allele and genotype frequencies and implemented Hardy -Weinberg equivalent test.The distributional differences of alleles frequencies between groups were analyzed by χ2 test and geno-type frequencies through dominant model.Results Distributional differences of rs290487 genotype frequencies had statistically significant differences in the observation group vs the control group(χ2 =33.296,P <0.05 )and the T2DMgroup vs the normal group(χ2 =100.801,P <0.05).Statistically significant differences existed in C and T alleles frequencies as well:the observation group vs the control group(χ2 =16.280,P <0.05),the T2DM group vs normal group(χ2 =27.190,P <0.05).However,the gene polymorphisms of rs11196205 and rs11196218 showed no statistically significant difference (P >0.05 ).Conclusion rs290487 involved in the development of T2DM with hypertension,C and T alleles might be the risk factors of increasing the IMT and carotid arterial stiffness levels in patients of T2DMwith hypertension.Logistic regression analysis revealed that the increase of SBP,DBP,TC,TG,LDL-Ch and decrease of HDL -Ch may be the risk factors of hypertension and diabetic patients.Meanwhile,it dedicated that the increase of those biochemical indexes might be the important elements which would lead to the gene variations of C and T alleles.

Objective To evaluate the effect of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) on myocardial perfusion in coronary heart.Methods Fourty-two patients with coronary heart disease who were confirmed to have coronary artery steonsis by the coronary angiography were selected.They were checked by myocardial contrast echocardiography of intravenous before and after treatment by PCI.Then we determined quantitatively the perfusion of coronary microcirculation based on the extent of myocardial imaging and recorded it images.The myocardial contrast echocardiography result was compared before and after treatment by PCI for evaluating the situation of myocardial perfusion and effect of PCL So we can estimte the patients' prognosis.Results There were 39 eases of 42 patients with PCI that their lesion vascular were all opening and unblocked.Repeated radiography showed that their TIMI blood flow was the third level.The partial cross sectional area of all the capillaries [A =15.46 ± 3.27) min] blood flow velocity [β =(0.75 ±0.16)min/s],and myocardial blood flow volume[A - β =(12.00 ±4.51 ) min2/s] dependent on myocardial segments all increased more significantly than those before the PCI[A =(6.68 ± 1.76) min,β =(0.40 ± 0.12) min/s、A · β =(2.82 ± 1.38 ) min2/s] (t =37.2527.58、30.65,P ＜ 0.05 ).After PCI three months the EF value of follow-up patients was increased mote than that of before PCI (t =13.77,P ＜ 0.01 )but the scoring index of ventricular wall motion was decreased more than that of before PCI ( t =8.75,P ＜ 0.01 ).Correlation analysis showed that after PCI A,β,A · β all had a strong correlation ( every P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion PCI could effectively improve the situation of myocardial perfusion in myocardial infarction patients.It could save ischemia myocardial in infarction field and also improve the function of left ventricular if patients implemented PCI operation as soon as possible.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of adiponectin on angiotesin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ)-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis,and explore the related mechanism. Methods Cardiomyocytes isolated from neonatal rats were cultured in vitro. The identity of cardiomyocytes was confirmed by morphological examination and staining with anti-sarcomeric ?-actin antibody,and most (more than 95%) of the cells were identified as neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. After being placed in a serum-free medium for 24 hours,the ventricular myocytes were randomly grouped and received the following treatments respectively:placebo,or Ang Ⅱ (1?mol/L),or Ang Ⅱ (1?mmol/L) plus adiponectin (30mg/L). The protein levels of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by Western blotting. The apoptotic rate and the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ventricular myocytes were determined by flow cytometry. The survival rate of ventricular myocytes was evaluated by trypan blue staining. Results As compared with placebo group,the apoptosis of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was significantly promoted in 1?mol/L angiotesin Ⅱ group,the survival rate of cardiomyocytes was significantly reduced,with the protein expression of Bax and the ROS level increased,and the protein expression of Bcl-2 decreased (P

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of PD-L1 in colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods:A total of 210 CRC patients who accepted radical surgery in our hospital from January 2015 to January 2016 were divided into three groups, namely, high-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H), low-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-L), and microsatellite stable (MSS). The expression of PD-L1 was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the expression characteristics of PD-L1 in different types of CRC were analyzed. Results:CRC cases with low differentiation had a higher expression of PD-L1 than CRC patients with high differ-entiation (P<0.05). PD-L1 had a positive rate of 75.8%in the MSI-H group and a rate of 9.3%in the MSI-L and MSS groups, wherein the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion:PD-L1 was positively expressed in some CRC tu-mor tissues, and its positive rate was significantly higher in MSI-H than in MSI-L and MSS. The therapeutic effect of a PD-L1 blocker for patients with MSI-H CRC might be preferable.

ObjectiveTo establish the reference intervals of serum triiodothyronine (TT3),the thyroxine ( TT4 ),free triiodothyronine ( FT3 ),free thyroxine ( FT4 ) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)in the apparently healthy individuals of Beijing and Shanghai.Methods According to the requirement for laboratory support for the diagnosis and monitoring of thyroid diseases in the National Academy ofClinicalBiochemistry(NACB)laboratorymedicinepracticeguidelines, therewere 390 apparently healthy individuals tested (221 male,169 female,18 -65 years old) from Beijing and Shanghai for serum TT3,TT4,FT3,FT4 and TSH on American Beckman UniCel DXI 800 Automatic Chemiluminescent Analyzer.All markers were analyzed between gender,region,age group using t test and ANOVA.The reference intervals of all markers were determined by P2.5 - P97.5.ResultsTT3,TT4,FT3,FT4,TSH levels in the male group were ( 1.90 ± 0.32) nmol/L,( 116.77 ± 18.02) nmol/L,( 5.28 ±0.67) pmol/L,( 11.54 ± 1.97) pmol/L,( 1.92 ± 1.12 ) mIU/L,respectively,while the above indicators in the female group were ( 1.82 ± 0.32) nmol/L,( 115.73 ± 14.39 ) nmol/L,(5.04 ± 0.59 ) pmol/L,( 10.94 ± 1.45) pmol/L,( 2.37 ± 1.86 ) mIU/L,respectively.When comparing the results in genders,statistical significance was shown in TF3,FT3,FT4 and TSH of two gender groups( t =2.377,3.642,3.471,2.520,all P ＜ 0.05 ).When comparing different regions,statistical significance was only shown in FT3 ( t =6.410,P ＜ 0.05 ),in which Beijing group was (5.01 ± 0.63) pmol/L,and Shanghai group was (5.41 ±0.61 ) pmol/L,and no significant difference were shown in other four markers.Correlation analysis showed that TT4 was positively correlated with age (r =0.22,P ＜ 0.001 ) while TSH was negatively correlated with age ( r =- 0.12,P ＜ 0.05 ).TT3,TT4,FT3,FT4,TSH reference intervals were ( 1.22 - 2.50 ) nmol/L,(83.37 - 149.37 ) nmol/L,( 3.88 - 6.48 ) pmol/L,( 7.70 - 14.86) pmol/L,( 0.38 - 5.58 ) mIU/L,respectively.ConclusionDifferences of serum thyroid hormones were observed in different areas of China,It is important to establish reference intervals of the serum thyroid hormones in Chinese population.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the suitability of Nordtest guideline in estimating measurement uncertainty of routine tests in clinical laboratory.MethodsData of clinical laboratory of Beijing Tongren Hospital were collected,which came from 176 days of Internal Quality Control ( IQC ) from July 2010 to December 2010 and 6 times of External Quality Assesment ( EQA ) of NCCL from 2009 to 2010.The combined and expanded uncertainties of 21meaurements (sodium, potassium, chlorine,calcium,phosphrous,glucose,urea nitrogen,creatinine,uric acid,total protein,albumin,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin, alanineaminotransferase, aspartateaminotransferase, alkalinephosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase,glutamyl transpeptidase,creatine kinase,triglyceride and total cholesterol) were evaluated according to Nordtest guideline.ResultsOf all the measurements,expanded uncertainty of direct bilirubin ( 17.69％ ) was the highest.For some enzymes such as ALT,AST,ALP and LDH,expanded uncertainties were all over 10％ markedly influenced by the calibrator uncertainty.Expanded uncertainty of triglyceride was 12.7％,also largely influenced by calibrator uncertainty,while that of total cholesterol was 6.96％.ConclusionsNordtest guideline is suitable to evaluate the measurement uncertainty of routine assays in clinical laboratory.However,calibrator uncertainty should be taken into account in the process of evaluation.
