Objective To investigate the possible mechanisms of ox-LDL on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) with and without exogenous zinc finger protein A20 gene. Methods VSMC were trans-fected with plamid containing A20 gene and incubated with ox-LDL. TLR4 and LOX-1 mRNA expression were measured by RT-PCR. Results After VSMC incubated with ox-LDL, the expression of LOX-1 and TLR-4 mRNA reached a higher level. However, when VSMC were transfected with plasmid containing A20 gene, the NF-kB nuclear translocation and the ability of migration reduced to normal level. Conclusions ox-LDL can significantly activate NF-kB signaling system and enhance migration in VSMC. The activation may induce the inflammatory response in arterial wall, the migration of VSMC to the intima, and triggering the process of atherosclerosis. Transfecting plasmid containing A20 gene significantly inhibited the activation of NF-kB and the ability of migration of VSMC. A20 effects might be through inhibiting NF-kB signaling. Meanwhile, A20 blocked the development of atherosclerosis.

Objective To know the distribution of arsenic and trace elements in drinking water in the endemic arsenism areas in Shanyin County, Shanxi Province. Methods Drinking water samples were collected from the chronic endemic arsenic poisoning areas of Silizhuang and Shanghexi, Shanyin County, Shanxi Province and HPLC-HG-AFS system was used to analyze the arsenic contents, valence and speciation. The trace elements were determined by ICP-MS. The data were analyzed by SPSS13.0 for windows. Results A total of 63 drinking water samples were determined, 39.68% of them exceeded the standard limit of arsenic level, inorganic arsenic was the main arsenical in drinking water, iAs3+/(iAs3++iAs5+) ratio was 56.17% in the water sample (arsenic was higher than 50 ?g/L) . The contents of Fe, Mn, Hg, Se and Pb in part of drinking water samples exceed the standard limits. No significant difference was seen between the arsenic results determined by HPLC-HG-AFS and ICP-MS. Conclusion Arsenic contamination of drinking water in Shanyin County, Shanxi Province is severe. The most frequently seen arsenic valence state in drinking water is iAs3+. Some trace elements in part of drinking water samples exceed the standard limits, this may aggravate arsenic poisoning.

Objective To evaluate the factors influencing prognosis and to explore the pathological mechanism in which herpes simplex virus encephalitis(HSE) was one of the severe types of acute viral encephalitis in children and had poor prognosis.Methods Twenty-one children with HSE were diagnosed by the clinical syndrome of focal encephalitis and HSV DNA-PCR positive in cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) from Jan.2012 to Oct.2013,among whom,19 patients were treated with intravenous Acyclovir,30 mg/(kg · d) 48 hours after onset and were followed up for 6 to 24 months.Clinical data were collected including Glasgow Coma Score,the brain magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and electroencephalography(EEG).All MRI examinations including plain scan and contrast enhancement were carried out at the beginning of admission and 1 month after the onset of symptoms.The clinical outcomes were divided into two levels accoming to the severity of the neurological deficit,then the data were analyzed by using Logistic regression and Fisher's exact probability method.The OR value was calculated.Results Eighteen children survived,of whom 5 cases had no neurological deficit(27.8％),3 cases were left with mild impairment(16.7％),and the above 8 cases were thought to have better outcome.Six cases had moderate impairment (33.3％) and 4 cases had severe impairment(22.2％) and 1 child died,and these 11 cases were thought to have worse outcome.Patients aged between 1 month and 10 years,average (2.03 ± 2.23) years old.The mean GCS score was (9.68 ± 2.65) scores,the GCS of the patients were more than 7except for one death child with 3 scores.The multiple factor analysis showed that EEG,age,GCS and the range and character in MRI were significantly correlative to the prognosis(P ＜ 0.05).The single factor analysis illustrated that age 1-4 years old(OR =30,95％ CI 2.066-366.510,P =0.002),GCS ≤ 10 scores(OR =27.518,95％ C1 2.066-366.510,P =0.004)and the wide necrosis existence involving diffuse white matter or deep nuclei of MRI findings (OR =12,95 ％ CI 1.294-111.323,P =0.017) indicated the worse outcome.Conclusions Age,GCS score,nature and damage degree of MRI lesions are the main important factors affecting the prognosis of children's HSE.HSE in children is apt to involve the cortex such as frontal lobe,parietal lobe even diffuse white matter or deep nuclei,which indicates the poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of oxycodone hydrochloride controlled-release tablets combined with gabapentin in the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy.Methods Eighty patients with painful diabetic neuropathy were divided into group A and group B with 40 cases each by random digits table.Patients of group A received simple oxycodone hydrochloride controlled-release tablets,while patients of group B received oxycodone combined with gabapentin.The intensity of pain, oxycodone dosage, quality of life and adverse effect in two groups was observed and compared.Results The pain was obviously relieved in two groups, and the effective analgesic rate at 21-28 d after treatment in group B was superior to group A[95.0% (38/40) vs.62.5% (25/40)], there was significant difference between two groups (P＜0.05).Numerical rating scale NRS score at 28 d after treatment in group B and group A was 1.2 ± 0.3 and 2.8 ± 0.5 respectively,and there was significant difference between two groups (P＜ 0.01 );the oxycodone dosage at 28 d after treatment in group B was lower than that in group A[(32.2 ± 4.3 )mg vs.(40.3±5.5 ) mg], and there was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ); the quality of life in group B was superior to group A, and there was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01 );the incidence of dizzy at 7, 14 d after treatment in group B was higher than that in group A[35.0% (14/40) vs.15.0% (6/40) and 30.0% (12/40) vs.10.0% (4/40)],and there was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Oxycodon hydrochloride controlled-release tablets combined with gabapentin is effective and safe for the management of painful diabetic neuropathy.

Objective To investigate the effect of CHRNA1 genetic polymorphism on neuromuscular blockade induced with rocuronium. Methods Ninety-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes (age 18-64 yr,BMI 18-25 kg/m2 ) undergoing elective intra-abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were divided into 3 groups according to their genotypes: group Ⅰ AA ( n = 71 ); group Ⅱ AG ( n = 19) and group Ⅲ GG ( n = 5). ECG,BP, HR and SpO2 were continuously monitored during anesthesia. Neuromuscular function was assessed by response of adductor pollicis muscle to stimulation of the ulnar nerve using TOF-Watch SX monitor. Genomic DNA was extracted by using proteinase K digestion followed by a salting out prosedure. rs16862847 polymorphisms were analyzed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and direct sequence analysis. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 4 μg/kg and propofol 2 mg/kg. Rocuronium 0.2 mg/kg was injected iv as soon as the patients lost consciousness. Results The twitch height of adductor pollicis muscle was significantly decreased in group AG and GG as compared with group AA ( P ＜ 0.05). There was no significant difference between group AG and GG.Conclusion CHRNA1 genetic polymorphism can influence the neuromuscular blockade induced with rocuronium,indicating that the genetic factor is one of the reasons contributing to the individual variation in neuromuscular blockade induced with muscle relaxants in patients.

It is a brief review of our research on the role of metallothioneins (MTs) in the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (Hcc) in more than a decade,and the mechanism of prevention and treatment for Hcc in the field of TCM.It was found that MTs were required for the malignant proliferation of Hcc cells and their expressions significantly increased under different levels of stress.MTs may exert their effects on promoting proliferation via increasing ribosomal protein gene or other gene expressions.The over-expressions of MTs directly altered the balance of ions in the cell nucleus,and interacted on the genes promoting malignant proliferation.Hepatotoxicity and hepatic damage caused by DEN were reduced and relieved to different extents by the representative formula or constitute,which under the common therapeutic principle,by which MTs expressions were down-regulated as well.In conclusion,both effects above are important in the liver protection,inhibition of hyperplasia and carcinogenesis.

Objective To study the expressions of metadherin (MTDH) and cyclinD1 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and their clinical significances. Methods The protein expressions of MTDH and cyclinD1 were detected by immunohistochemistry in 78 cases of ESCC. Results The positive expression rate of MTDH in ESCC was 71.79%(56/78) and the positive expression rate of cyclinD1 in ESCC was 74.36%(58/78). The expressions of MTDH and cyclinD1 were significantly correlated with the degree of differentiation and lymph node metastasis (both P< 0.05), but not with the age, gender of patients and depth of tumor invasion (all P> 0.05). Conclusion The over expressions of MTDH and cyclinD1 protein may involve in the occurrence and development of esophageal carcinoma, which play important roles in the invasion and metastasis of esophageal cancer.
