BACKGROUND: Hyperhomocysteinemia has been suggested to be a possible independent risk factor for stroke.OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between hyperhomocysteinemia and cerebral infarction and hemorrhage, and analyze the factors that affect plasma homocysteine level.DESIGN: Case-controlled clinical trial.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Second Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Zhejiang University.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 57 patients including 21 with cerebral hemorthage and 36 with brain infarction were treated in the Department of Neurology, Second Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Zhejiang University Between January and November 2003. Twenty-eight healthy volunteers were also recruited from the subjects coming for routine physical examination.METHODS: Two milliliters of fasting venous blood was collected from all subjects in the morning for detecting the contents of plasma homocysteine,vitamin B12, folic acid, creatinine and so on. All patients were scored for clinical neurological impairment, with the hematoma volume calculated in patients with brain hemorrhage determined on the basis of CT scanning.acid, vitamin B12, clinical neurological impairment score and hematoma volume.RESULTS: Valid results were obtained from all the 57 stroke patients and in male and female patients of both cerebral infarction group and cerebral hemorrhage group than that of the subjects of the same gender in the control group [(25.2±21.4), (18.3±10.9), (11.5±2.9) μmol/L for male subjects;(22.8±18.9), (14.7±7.4), (10.8±2.6) μmol/L for female subjects, P＜ 0.05-0.01].The level of homocysteine was similar between cerebral infarction group and cerebral hemorrhage group, homocysteic acid level showed obvious inverse correlation with folic acid level (r=-0.442, -0.531, P ＜ 0.05), but without relation to vitamin B12 level (r=-0.086, -0.111, P ＞ 0.05). Homocysteine level was not obviously correlated to the neurological impairment scores in cerebral infarction group (r=-0.139, P ＞ 0.05), nor was it related to the scores or hematoma volume in cerebral hemorrhage group (r=0.225,0.425, P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: Hyperhomocysteinemia is risk factor for cerebral infarction and hemorrhage. Plasma homocysteine level is inversely correlated with folic acid level, but not obviously related to vitamin B12, clinical neurologicla impairment score or hematoma volume.

Objective To investigate the effect of C reactive protein on receptor of advanced glycation end-products protein (RAGE) and mRNA expression in human endothelial cells. Methods Human saphenous vein endothelial cells (HSVECs) were incubated with CRP. RAGE protein levels were determined by flow cytometry, and RAGE mRNA levels were assessed by RT-PCR. Results (1)Compared with control group (100%), CRP caused a significant increase in RAGE protein expression at a dose as low as 5 ?g/mL (175.2%?8.1%, P0.05). Conclusion C-reactive protein upregulates RAGE protein and mRNA expression in human endothelial cells in a dose and time dependent manner.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of furanodiene(FDE),a diterpene derived from the medicinal plant Zedoary,on apoptosis of human gastric cancer MGC-803 cells induced in vitro. METHODS MGC-803 cells were treated with FDE 46.29~740.74μmol·L-1 for 24,48 and 72 h,and the cell viability was detected with MTT assay. Cell morphology was observed by light microscopy and Hoechst33342 staining. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptotic rate and cell cycle. Rh123 staining and fluorescence probe DCFH-DA were employed to detect the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reactive oxygen species(ROS). RESULTS MTT Results showed that FDE 46.29-740.74μmol · L-1 exhibited significantly higher cytotoxicity to gastric cancer MGC-803 cells. IC50 for MGC-803 of 24,48 and 72 h treatment was 347.91,257.41 and 101.01μmol·L-1,respectively. Treatment with FDE 92.58-370.32μmol·L-1 for 24 h also caused significant morphological changes in MGC-803 cells. AnnexinⅤ-FITC/PI double staining showed that the apoptotic rate increased after FDE 92.58-370.32μmol·L-1 treatment for 24 h(P<0.05). FDE enabled MGC-803 cell cycle arrest in S phase. DCFH-DA staining showed that FDE resulted in an increase in intracellular ROS levels(P<0.05) when PDE concentration was 370.37μmol·L-1(P<0.05). MMP decreased after FDE treatment when PDE concen?tration was 370.37μmol·L-1(P<0.05). CONCLUSION FDE Possesses potent tumor selected toxicity and can induce apoptosis of MGC-803 cells through cell cycle arresting,which is related to inhibition of DNA biosynthesis.

Objective To investigate the distribution of water-borne fluoride and the current status of water defluoridation project by improving drinking water quality in endemic fluorosis areas in Shandong province,and to provide scientific basis for making strategies in prevention and control of the disease. Methods According to "the National Technical Scheme for Endemic Disease Control in 2004, 2005 and 2006", 113 endemic fluorosis diseased counties(cities, and districts) of the province's 17 cities were screened in order to investigate the fluoride level in drinking water in fluorosis villages, recheck the fluoride level after implementing the water defluoridation project, and investigate the current status of the water defluoridation project. The fluoride level in drinking water was determined by F-ion selective electrode. Results There were a total of 5816 water defluoridation projects in the province. Most of them were carried out by drilling a deep well to get under-ground water. The wells still in good condition were accounted for 72.80% (4234/5816). Intermittent operated wells were accounted for 3.11% (181/5816). Abandoned wells were accounted for 24.09%(1401/5816). Level of water fluoride was determined in 6940samples from fluorosis villages(villages that not carry out the water defluoridation project as well as villages carried out the water defluoridation project with abandoned wells were included) and the value that lower or equal to 1.00mg/L was determined in 2987 villages which accounted for 43.04% (2987/6940). Level of water fluoride that over 1.00 mg/L was found in 3953 villages which accounted for 56.96% (3593/6940), and the highest level of water fluoride was 11.33 mg/L. Level of water fluoride were determined in 4415 samples from water defluoridation project and the value lower or equal to 1.00 mg/L was in 2983 wells which accounted for 65.53%(2983/4415). The value over 1.00 mg/L was in 1522 wells which accounted for 34.47%(1522/4415), the highest value of water fluoride was 9.71 mg/L. Conclusions Level of water fluoride in up to 1/2 of the villages and 1/3 of the projects, is still higher than the standard in Shandong province. Nearly 1/4 of the project has been abandoned. The current situation for endemic fluorosis control is still not good in the province, countermeasures for endemic fluorosis must be carried out as soon as possible and surveillance of water defluoridation project must be strengthened.

BACKGROUND:Anticancer drug and organic metal complexes wil form a new structure or a change in ion concentration, thus changing both the activity and toxicity to produce a synergistic effect. OBJECTIVE:To synthesize new high-efficient and low-toxic metal-fluorouracil complexes as anticancer drugs. METHODS:Copper, zinc and iron salts and fluorouracil were used to synthesize four copper, zinc and iron-fluorouracil complexes that were [Cu(5-Fu)2Cl2], [Cu(5-Fu)2(NO3)2], [Fe(5-Fu)3]SO4 and [Zn(5-Fu)2Cl2]. Preliminary chemical structures of the four complexes were confirmed by elemental analysis and mass spectrometry. Their inhibitory activity on human cancer cells, human leukemia cellline K562 and human colon cancer cellline HCT-116, was measured by MTT colorimetric assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:[Cu(5-Fu)2Cl2], [Cu(5-Fu)2(NO3)2], [Zn(5-Fu)2Cl2] and [Fe(5-Fu)3SO4] were successful y synthesized. These four complexes at a mass concentration of 0.1-100 mg/L inhibited the proliferation of K562 and HCT-116 to different extents. The IC 50 values of these four complexes on K562 and HCT-116 cells were lower than those of fluorouracil, and their cytotoxicity was 1.5-7.8 times higher than that of fluorouracil. To conclude, copper/iron/zinc-fluorouracil complexes exhibit synergic inhibitory effects on cancer cellproliferation.

Objective To investigate the prevailing status of endemic fluorosis in the south area of Shandong province and to provide a scientific basis for formulating control measures against the disease.Methods According to the present distribution of fluorosis areas in the south area of Shandong province and the Shandong Province Technical Scheme for Endemic Disease Control,13 counties(districts) in the south area of Shandong province were selected as the survey counties in 2009.Based on the state of endemic fluorosis,the disease was classified into light,moderate and severe types in the 13 monitoring counties (districts),and one diseased village was selected from each type as the survey spots.The drinking water fluoride level,the prevalence of dental fluorosis of children aged 8-12,adult clinical skeletal fluorosis and urinary fluoride level of the children and adults were surveyed in the 39 villages selected.The content of fluoride in drinking water and urine was dctermined by F-ion selective electrode while dental fluorosis of the children aged 8-12 was diagnosed by Dean method and adults skeletal fluorosis by the national standard for Diagnosis of Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis (WS 192-2008).Results A total of 172 water samples were tested in the 39 villages(26 villages with improved water and 13 villages with unimproved water) of the 13 counties(districts),the fluoride content of the 74 water samples(51 from 13 villages with unimproved water and 23 from 6 villages with improved water) exceeded the national standard(＞ 1.0 mg/L),and the rate of exceeded the standard was 43.02％(74/172) with 24 of ＞ 2.0-4.0 mg/L and 3 of ＞ 4.0 mg/L,and the maximum value of the water fluoride was 7.76 mg/L.A total of 1118 copies of children urine samples were tested,geometric mean of urinary fluoride was 1.82 mg/L; 764 copies of adults' urine samples were tested,geometric mean of urinary fluoride was 1.98 mg/L.A total of 1908 children aged 8-12 were examined of dental fluorosis,the detection rate was 45.18％ (862/1908),tooth defection rate was 9.12％ (174/1908),and dental fluorosis index was 1.07.A total of 25 295 adults were checked of clinical skeletal fluorosis,the detection rate was 5.96％(1509/25 296) with 670 moderate or scrious cases.Conclusions In the south area of Shandong province,excessive water fluoride is still serious,mainly in the diseased villages with unimproved water(including water improvement villages discarded water improvement thereafter).Urine fluoride remains at a relatively high level,and the dental and skeletal fluorosis are still comparatively serious.High tluoride hazard still exists to a certain degree.Therefore,the scientific control measures need to be strengthened to control the prevalent of endemic fluorosis.
