OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of triptorelin acetate in the treatment of endometriosis after lap-aroscopy. METHODS:196 cases of endometriosis were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 98 cases in each group according to admission sequence. Both groups received laparoscopic surgery. After surgery,experimental group was given triptorelin acetate by intramuscular injection,3.75 mg/time,every 4 weeks;control group was given gestrinone orally,2.5 mg/time,twice a week,for 5 months. The ovulation,menstrual recovery and the occurrence of ADR were observed in 2 groups. The endometriosis relapse of 2 groups were followed up for 1 year and observed. RESULTS:After treatment,the ovulation recov-ery time and menstrual recovery time of experimental group were all shorter than those of control group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). The incidence of ADR in experimental group(17.34%)was significantly lower than in control group(35.71%), with statistical significance(P<0.05). During follow-up period,the relapse rate of experimental group(7.14%)was significantly lower than that of control group(18.37%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:After laparoscopic surgery, triptorelin acetate can significantly improve therapeutic efficacy of endometriosis,reduce the occurrence of ADR.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of different high concentrations glucose(Glu) on the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α(HIF-1α) in cultured neonatal rat eardiomyocytes under hypoxia and non-hypoxia conditions. Methods Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were cultured for 6 hours under different conditions and were divided into 6 groups:①Negative control group (5.5 mmol/L Glu) ; ②hypoxia mimicking cobalt chloride(Cocl_2) group(5.5 mmol/L Glu + 400 μmol/L cocl_2 ) ;③Different high concentrations Glu groups: (11.1 mmol/L, 22.2 mmol/L, 33.3 mmol/L Glu);④cocl_2 +different high concentrations Glu groups(11.1 mmol/L Glu +400 μmol/L cocl_2,22.2 mmol/L Glu +400 μmol/L cocl_2, 33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2);⑤High concentrations Glu + antioxidant α-tocopherol group(33.3 mmol/L Glu + 100 μmol/L α-tocopherol) ; ⑥ High concentrations Glu+antioxidant α-tocopherol+cocl_2 group(33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2+100 μmol/L α-tocopherol). The effect of high concentrations Glu, cocl_2 and high concentrations Glu plus cocl_2 on the expression of HIF- 1α mRNA and protein in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, as well as the effect of high concentrations Glu plus antioxidant α-tocopherol, high Glu concentrations plus cocl_2 and antioxidant α-tocopherol on the expression of HIF- 1α mRNA and protein were observed. Results 1. Compared with negative control group(5.5 mmol/L Glu), the 'expression of HIF- 1α was increased under cocl_2 mimicked hypoxia(5.5 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2, 11.1 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2 ,22.2 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2,33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2). 2. The expression of HIF- 1α was increased gradually after the increasing of Glu concentrations(5.5 mmol/L, 11.1 mmol/L, 22.2 mmol/L and 33.3 mmol/L Glu).3.The expression of HIF-1α was decreased gradually after the increasing of Glu concentrations under certain cocl_2 plus different high concentrations Glu (5.5 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2, 11.1 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2, 22.2 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2,33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2). 4. Under high concentration Glu plus antioxidant α-tocopherol (33.3 mmol/L Glu+100 μmol/L α-tocopherol) ,the expression of HIF- 1α was less increased than the same high Glu concentration(33.3 mmol/L Glu). 5. Under high Glu concentration plus cocl_2 (33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L cocl_2), the expression of HIF- 1α increased less than that of the same high Glu concentration plus antioxidant α-tocopherol and cocl_2 (33.3 mmol/L Glu+400 μmol/L Cocl_2+ 100 μmol/L α-tocopherol). Conclusions High glucose increases the expression of HIF-1α under non-hypoxia, but blunts the expression of HIF-1α under hypoxia in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Some mechanisms such as ROS (reactive oxygen species) signal transduction system and oxidative stress may be involved in it.

Penetration enhancers are substances to improve the rate or amount of transdermal permeation which is an important factor in transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS). Recent researches have found that some of the new penetration enhancers have a higher penetration-effect, little irritation, fewer adverse reactions, and stable properties. In this article, domestic and foreign research reports on penetration enhancers have been collected and summarized. The research progress of penetration enhancers were reviewed, with a purpose to provide a reference for reasonable selection of penetration enhancers.

Objective To investigate whether the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABAB) receptor genes,including gabbr1 gene and gabbr2 gene,are the susceptible genes for simple febrile seizures (sFS) by screening mutation of gabbr1 gene and gabbr2 gene and to study the possible association between sFS and the 2 genes.Methods All exons and flanking introns of gabbr1 gene and gabbr2 gene were amplified with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced to screen the possible mutation on 60 children with sFS in the northern China in Han nationality population.One hundred and one healthy children from the same area were selected as controls,and the genotypes of single nucleotiole polymorphisms (SNPS) (rs29220,rs29230,rs29267 on gabbr1 gene and rs1000440,rs3205936,rs2304391 on gabbr2 gene) were typed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism.EH1.20 software was used to estimate haplotype frequency to study the association with the haplotype as genetic marker between case group and control group.Results No mutation associated with sFS was found in the 60 sFS cases.In all sequenced regions,23 SNPs were identified in both genes:6 SNPs in gabbr1 gene and 17 SNPs in gabbr2 gene.The frequencies of the 6 SNPs were complied well with the Hardy-weinberg equilibrium in sFS group and normal group.Genotype proportions and allele frequencies of 6 SNPs were not significantly different between both groups.The haplotypes of 3 SNPs in gabbr1 gene and in gabbr2 gene distributions were not significantly different between 2 groups.Conclusions No mutations and associations were identified between sFS with both GABAB receptor genes(gabbr1 gene and gabbr2 gene).They may not be the susceptibility gene for simple febrile seizures in Han nationality population in northern China.

Cardiomyocytes hypoxia resulting from ischemia is a major pathological factor in ischemic heart disease(IHD), and diabetes is one of the most common complications in IHD. myocardial damages aggravate and prognosis is worse in patients with coronary heart disease and diabetes, which is probably concerned with the reduction of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) expression. But the mechanisms of HIF-1 signal transduction system in diabetes are not clear. In recent years, many studies have indicated that increasing expression and activity of HIF-1? in IHD can promote neovascularization and cardiomyocytes survival, decrease ischemical reperfusion injury and myocardial infarction (MI) size, and increase myocardial function. Therefore regulating expression and activity of HIF-1? becomes a new way to treat IHD. Myocardial infarction models were made in GK diabetes rats through the ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery (LADCA). By using immunohistochemistry staining and RT-PCR methods, results suggested that HIF-1? expression decreased and myocardial infarction size increased in GK diabetes rats combined with MI. When treated with cobalt chloride(CoCl2), blood glucose level decreased, HIF-1? expression increased and myocardial infarction size reduced in GK diabetes rats, which may provide a new insight on treatment of coronary heart disease combined with diabetes by regulating HIF-1 signal transduction system.
