Journal of Modern Laboratory Medicine 2016;(1):68-70
Influenza viruses are global epidemic and diversely difficult to distinguish,which threaten human’s survival and development very much.In recentyears,the frequent outbreaks of influenza prompt the rapid development of Influenza virus detection.Compare with the traditional isolated culture and immunological detection,molecular diagnostic technology is of high detection speed,high sensitivity and specificity,that gradually play an important role in the current Influenza virus de-tection.In order to provide a theoretical basis for the rapid diagnosis of Influenza virus in the clinic,the article summarize the update progress of molecular biology and diagnostic techniques of Influenza viruses.
2.Integrin-linked kinase and diabetic nephropathy
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2004;0(01):-
Cellular functions like proliferation,differentiation,migration,morphogenesis and apoptosis are modulated by the extracellular matrix.Integrins are the prototypic heterodimeric transmembrane matrix receptors with competing affinities for individual extracellular matrix ligands.The intracellular integrin domain clusters cytoplasmic proteins into focal adhesion plaques for bidirectional(outside-in and inside-out) signaling.Integrin-linked kinase(ILK) is an intracellular serine/threonine protein kinase that interacts with the cytoplasmic domains of ?-integrins.ILK organizes the connections of the extracellular matrix via integrins to the cytoskeleton and is involved in adhesion plaque signaling,and it plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of chronic renal fibrosis.High glucose induces the upregulation of the synthesis and activity of ILK in cultivated mouse podocytes and mesangial cells.The ILK protein level is significantly increased in diabetic glomeruli.ILK activity is likely to provide the basis for an effective therapeutic method for diabetic nephropathy.This review gives an introduction of ILK structure and function,followed by a summary of our current understanding of ILK in diabetic nephropathy with a special focus on glomerular cell-matrix interaction.

Objective To explore the effects of insulin pump on pancreatic ?-cells in type 2 diabetes mellitus accompanied with hyperglycaemia.Methods We treated 46 cases of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus with fasting blood glucose≥10.0 mmol/L by insulin pump for 2 weeks.Their blood sugar and insulin were determined before and after treatment by oral glucose tolerance test and insulin releasing test.We then calculated the function index,morning secretion of pancreatic ?-cells and insulin resistance index.The patients were followed up for 6 months and the blood glucose was monitored.Results After treatment,insulin,function index and the morning secretion were increased significantly,while the blood sugar and resistance index were decreased.In all the patients,16 could maintain ideal blood glucose only by alimentary control and exercise.Conclusion With the insulin pump in a short term,patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can rapidly control blood glucose,obviously improve pancreatic ?-cells,and reduce insulin resistance.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of self-management anticoagulation treatment for low pulmonary embolism severity index (PESI) outpatient with acute pulmonary embolism (APE).Methods Sixty-eight patients with APE of PESI grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ were divide into inpatient group and outpatient group with 34 cases each by random digits table.All the patients were treated with low molecular heparin followed by oral anticoagulation,and self-management was used in outpatient group.The efficacy was observed within 14 days and 3 months.The efficacy outcome included recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE),standardization time of international normalized ratio (INR),VTE-related emergency department visit times,bleeding events and total mortality.Results There were 2 cases(5.9%,2/34) in inpatient group and 1 case (2.9%,1/34) in outpatient group with recurrent VTE,and there was no statistical significance between two groups (P > 0.05).Standardization time of INR in inpatient group [(8.5 ± 2.9) d] was shorter than that in outpatient group [(16.1 ± 4.4) d],and there was significant difference (P< 0.01).There was no significant difference in the VTE-related emergency department visit times between two groups (P > 0.05).There was 1 case with major bleeding and 1 death respectively in outpatient group.Conclusion It is effective and safe to give early self-management anticoagulation treatment to APE patients with PESI grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ,which could shorten time spending in hospital and release burden both physically and mentally.
6.Changes of uncoupling proteins activity and the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation in hypoxic exposed rat brain mitochondria in vitro
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2000;0(11):-
AIM:To observe the effect of GDP on uncoupling proteins(UCPs) activity and the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation in hypoxic exposed rat brain mitochondria.METHODS: Adult SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (control, acute hypoxia and chronic hypoxia groups). The animals were placed into a hypobaric chamber simulated 5 000 m high altitude for 0, 3 and 30 d, respectively. The mitochondria from rat brain were isolated by centrifugation. The activity of UCPs was detected by the method of [H3]-GTP binding with UCPs specifically. The maximal binding content (Bmax) and the dissociation constant (Kd) were determined by Scatchard plot. The mitochondrial potential was measured by rhodamine 123 method. Oxidative respiratory consumption was measured by Clark electrode. The experiments were conducted under the conditions with or without GDP (1 mmol/L), respectively. RESULTS: For exposed to hypoxia, Bmax and the oxidative consumption of uncoupling respiration were increased. Kd, MMP and RCR were decreased. UCPs activity was inhibited by GDP in three groups. Kd was increased 61.01%, 83.13% and 71.52% and Bmax was decreased 23.18%, 35.20% and 33.38%, respectively. The values in the acute hypoxic group were changed markedly. The sensitivity of UCPs to GDP was elevated significantly by hypoxia. With the reducing of UCPs activity, oxidative consumption of uncoupling respiration was decreased whereas RCR and MMP were increased. The results elucidated increase in the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation.CONCLUSION: GDP increases the mitochondrial membrane potential and decreases the oxygen consumption of uncoupling respiration in hypoxic exposed rat brain mitochondria by inhibiting UCPs activity. The results suggest that the change in UCPs activity is one of the factors of mitochondrial dysfunction in oxidative phosphorylation induced by hypoxia.

Objective To study the effect of continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) on the clearances of various solutes in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS)dogs.Methods Dogs were subjected to hemorrhagic shock plus resuscitation and endotoxemia to set up MODS model,then they were randomly divided into 2 groups: MODS group (M group)and MODS+CVVHDF group (M+C group).A PRISMA pre-dilution system with AN-69 filter was applied.Solute clearance of nitric oxide(NO),urea nitrogen(UN),creatinine (Cr),interleukin-6 (IL-6),interleukin-10 (IL-10),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and endotoxin (LP) was determined with same dialysate and ultrafiltrate volume during CVVHDF.The clearance of various solutes (Kd) was calculated by the concentration of the cleared solutes in effluents (E) based on the formula Kd=(ExQE)/P.Results Clearances of NO,UN,Cr were greater than those of IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α,LP during the treatment of CVVHDF.Conclusion CVVHDF could effectively reduce the levels of various solutes in the development of MODS by convection and absorption.
