To discuss the etiology, pathogenesis, therapies and prescriptions of psycho-cardiological abnormality of patients with coronary heart disease. According to the advance in modern diagnosis and treatment, the authors believed that psycho-cardiological abnormality of patients with coronary heart disease is closely related with mental stresses, like anxiety, depression and insomnia. It is mostly caused by emotional injury and expressed in heart, liver, spleen and kidney. The pathogenesis is heart-liver hyperactivity, yin deficiency in heart and kidney, and insufficiency in heart and spleen. The full recognition of etiology and pathogenesis of psycho-cardiological abnormality of patients with coronary heart disease and the combined treatment of disease and syndromes are of great significance to reduce mental stress and other risk factors, prevent and treat coronary heart disease and improve prognosis.

Sleep deprivation (SD) has been taken as an independent predictor for cardiovascular risks, which was closely related to the increased morbidity and mortality in coronary heart disease (CHD). In this article, after reviewing the impact of modern medical method sleep deprivation on CHD and studies on principle method recipe medicines for preventing and treating CHD, the authors observed the autonomic nerve dysfunction, hormonal metabolism dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction and inflammatory responses after sleep deprivation, which can cause or aggravate CHD. On the basis of the traditional Chinese medicine theories of "heart dominating the blood and vessels and the mind", the authors considered that traditional Chinese medicines can tonify heart and soothe the nerves, reducing all of the risk factors through multi-target and multi-pathway, and improve sleep and decrease the risk factors caused by sleep deprivation, which provides a new idea for the prevention and treatment of CHD.

To construct recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and Alpha1-TFEB fusion gene and to evaluate the promoter activity of the Alpha gene. Methods:Promoter regions of the Alpha gene were predicted using a software Primer 0.5. Five Alpha gene segments with different lengths and a normal TFEB gene promoter (pTFEB) were amplified via polymerase chain reaction, and recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and a normal TFEB gene pro-moter were constructed. Liposome transfection was used to transfect these vectors into the human embryo kidney 293T cells. The pro-moter activity of the Alpha gene was evaluated via luciferase assay. Meanwhile, the recombinant Alpha1-TFEB plasmid was construct-ed and transfected into the 293T cells. The TFEB expression of the recombinant Alpha1-TFEB plasmid was then detected via Western blot. Results: Recombinant reporter plasmids containing different Alpha gene segments and pTFEB were constructed successfully. Compared with the luciferase activity of pGL3-Basic, that of the groups with Alpha1, Alpha2, Alpha3, Alpha4 and Alpha5 significantly increased (P<0.01). The luciferase activity also increased significantly in the groups with Alpha1, Alpha2 and Alpha5 compared with that of the pTFEB group (P<0.01). The TFEB expression of the pGL3-Enhancer-Alpha1-TFEB was significantly higher compared with that of the pGL3-Enhancer group. Conclusion:In t(6;11) translocation RCC, the Alpha gene has a strong promoter activity and it en-hances TFEB expression. The strongest promoter activity region is in Alpha5 with a sequence from 643 bp to 693 bp.
