Objective To study the effect of blood glucose level and duration of type 2 diabetes mellitus on carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and quantitative carotid stiffness (QCS) in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Two hundred and seventy-four type 2 diabetic patients (diagnosed according to the World Health Organization criteria) were involved in this study. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the HbAlclevels and duration of diabetes mellitus: 60 with duration ≤2 years (as newly diagnosed) , 96 with duration≥5 years and HbAlc <6.5%, and 118 with duration≥5 years and HbAlc≥6.5%. CIMT and QCS of the common carotid artery were assessed by the high-resolution B-mode ultrasound unit and an echo-tracking system integrated in an uhrasound unit respectively. Results (1) In categorical analyses, the mean level of CIMT was increased from 720 μm in subjects with a duration of diabetes mellitus ≤2 years to 770 μm in subjects with a duration of diabetes mellitus > 2 years and plasma HbAlc< 6.5% (P < 0.05), and to 800 μm in subjects with a duration of diabetes mellitus > 5 years and plasma HbAlc≥ 6.5 % (P < 0.01). The corresponding values for Q CS values were 4.5, 4.5 and 5.1 (P <0.05), respectively. (2) In multiple stepwise regression analyses, CIMT wassignificantly associated with the duration of diabetes mellitus, systolic blood pressure and serum concentration of total cholesterol, whereas QCS was significantly associated with age, duration of diabetes mellitus, smoking, HbAlc, systolic blood pressure (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusion QCS is suitable in evaluating the impact of blood glucose on carotid artery, while CIMT is an appropriate tool for long-term follow-up of diabetic patients.

Aim To compare the interactions of baicalein and baicalin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and their mechanism. Methods The binding reactions of baicalein and baicalin with BSA and the effects of glucose on them were studied by spectroscopy to compare the binding constants and binding distances of baicalein-BSA and baicalin-BSA,which were calculated according to Lineweaver-Burk equation and F?ster' energy transfer theory. Thermodynamic parameters were used to calculate the types of interaction force between BSA with baicalein or baicalin and the technique of synchronous fluorescence spectra was used to observe the effects of baicalein or baicalin on the conformation of BSA. Results Both the binding constants and binding distances of baicalein-BSA and baicalin-BSA decreased with temperature increasing and were increased by glucose. Relative to baicalein,the binding affinity of baicalin to BSA decreased obviously with an increase in binding distance. Both baicalein and baicalin could form non-covalent compounds with BSA mainly to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA through a static quenching procedure. Baicalein could interact with BSA through hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals force,and baicalin did it mainly through electrostatic force. Though baicalein or baicalin could induce the conformational changes of BSA by binding reaction,only the former reduced the hydrophobicity in microenvironment around the tryptophan moieties of BSA. Conclusions The glycosylation substitution of baicalein molecule can decrease the binding to BSA (baicalin-BSA) and change the types of interaction force. The physiological concentration of glucose increases the binding constants and the number of binding sites of baicalein and baicalin with BSA.

Lesch-Nyhan syndrome(LNS) is a congenital X-linked recessive inherited disorder caused by mutations in the hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) gene.A deficiency of the HPRT enzyme is responsible for the disease.The main clinical manifestation includes hyperuricemia, juvenile-onset gouty arthritis and neurological developmental disorders.Studies have reported there are more than 400 HPRT gene mutation sites, but the incidence of LNS in the Chinese population is extremely low.Here we report a 16-year-old male patient who suffered neurological dysfunction at an early age and gouty arthritis in his youth.DNA of patient and his family members were extracted from peripheral blood lymphocytes.The coding region and the intron-exon boundaries of HPRT gene were sequenced by standard methods.We found a mutation in exon 3 of the HPRT gene of the patient and his mother (Exon3:c.143G>A), which resulted in an arginine to histidine (p.R48H) substitution in the encoded protein.No activity of the enzyme HPRT was detected in the erythrocytes.The same mutation was reported in several European families, but was found in Chinese family for the first time.Clinicians in China have poor experience in diagnosing LNS case, due to the low incidence in China.Therefore LNS screening for infants or adolescents with hyperuricemia, gouty arthritis and neurological dysfunction should be performed.
