Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of ischemic postconditioning (IPC) on myocardial perfusion levels of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients having underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and the safety of IPC. Methods One hundred and sixty patients with STEMI were enrolled, and they accepted the primary PCI therapy within the onset of 12 h. The patients were divided into 2 groups according the treatment method:control group (routine PCI group, 82 cases) and IPC group (78 cases). The ST-segment resolution, TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG), before and after PCI levels of nitrogen monoxidum (NO), endothelin (ET)-1, tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, rate of intraoperative complication were observed. The patients were followed up for 6 months, the rate of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) was recorded. Results The rates of ST-segment resolution and TMPG well in IPC group were significantly higher than those in control group:84.62%(66/78) vs. 67.07%(55/82) and 80.77%(63/78) vs. 64.63%(53/82), and the rate of ischemia-reperfusion injury in IPC group was significantly lower than that in control group: 7.69%(6/78) vs. 24.39%(20/82), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or<0.01). The endothelial function and fibrinolysis activity indexes (NO, ET-1, t-PA and PAI-1 levels ) 7 d after PCI in IPC group were significantly better than those in control group: (52.37 ± 3.84) μmol/L vs. (50.95 ±3.85) μmol/L, (75.47 ±3.47) ng/L vs. (76.61 ±3.72) ng/L, (12.96 ±1.25) μg/L vs. (12.52 ±1.23) μg/L, (21.78 ±4.01)μg/L vs. (24.95±7.56)μg/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or<0.01). There was no statistical difference in the rate of intraoperative complication between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The rate of MACE in IPC group was significantly lower than that in control group:3.85% (3/78) vs. 14.63% (12/82), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusions Applying IPC in patients with STEMI having underwent primary PCI is safe and can improve myocardial perfusion levels. The improvement of vessel endothelial function and fibrinolysis activity attained from IPC may be the major mechanism.

Objective To investigate the value and effects of lipoinjection into the subperiosteal and overlying multiple planes for correction of facial depression.Methods The lateral and posterolateral areas of the thigh and infragluteal areas were selected as donor sites of autologous fat.The fat was rinsed and purified after liposuction.The collected fat was injected into the subperiosteal and overlying multiple planes to correct facial depression.Results 96 patients received lipoinjection of volume between 0.5 to 22 ml for each unilateral depression each time.Secondary injection was performed after 4 to 8 months after operation if necessary.The depression was corrected,the skin texture was improved,the wrinkles were also improved after fat transplantation.The follow-up period was between 6 and 24 months.3 patients had sclerosis after lipoinjection.The sclerosis disappeared after 6 months through local massage,hot compress,and traditional medicine treatment in two of them.The sclerosis was resolved by excision in the rest one.There were no complications of hematoma,infection,liquefaction,and calcification.Conclusions Lipoinjection into the subperiosteal and overlying multiple planes can correct facial depression with fat.Fat survival rate is high.The method is suitable for correction of facial depression in aesthetic plastic surgery.

Purpose To discuss the clinicopathological features of primary thymic extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and lymphoepithelial sialadenitis (LESA)-like thymic hyperplasia,their relationship and differential diagnosis.Methods Three cases of thymic MALT lymphoma and one LESA-like thymic hyperplasia were evaluated by HE staining,immunohistochemistry and immunoglobulin (Ig) gene rearrangement technology.Results The symptoms of Sjsgren syndrome were found in the two patients with thymic MALT lymphoma.Microscopically,the normal architecture of thymus was effaced by dense lymphoid infiltration composed predominantly of centrocyte-like and monocytoid B cells with prominent lymphoepithelial lesions.Immunohistochemically,the tumor cells were positive CD20,PAX-5,and BCL-2.The plasma cells showed lambda light chain restriction in one case with prominent plasmacytoid differentiation.In LESA-like thymic hyperplasia,the normal lobular architecture of thymus was generally reserved and abundant lymphoid tissue containing lymphoid follicles was seen with prominent lymphoepithelial lesions in expanding islands of thymic epithelial cells and epithelium lining the cysts,but a monocytoid B-cell population was absent.Immunohistochemically,a mixed B-cell and T-cell population was identified.A monoclonal rearrangement of the Ig gene was detected in all three thymic MALT lymphomas but not in the case of LESA-like hyperplasia.Conclusion Primary thymic MALT lymphoma and LESA-like thymic hyperplasia are both rare lymphoid proliferative lesions and the two lesions have overlapping histological and immunohistochemical features.A combination of genetic rearrangement and analysis of the differential points is helpful to distinguish between them.

Objective:To generate sex hormone binding globulin(SHBG) conditional knockout mice model.In order to investigate the physiological function of SHBG in vivo and to provide experimental means for the study of the relationship between SHBG and gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods:The mouse genomic DNA sequence of SHBG was verified through bioinformatic analysis.According to the SHBG genomic DNA sequence,the gene targeting and knockout vector were constructed.Transfection of the vectors to ES cells by electroporation was performed according to common protocol.Positive ES cells were screened and identified by PCR.Therefore,the dual selected ES cells were microinjected into blastula,then blastula transplantations into the host mice.The chimeric mice were mated with C57BL/6J mice,and the Flox mice were obtained after screening.The Flox mice were hybridized with EIIA-Cre transgenic mice,and the progeny of the SHBG gene knockout (SHBG-/-) mice were obtained by autocopuation for several times.Results:Several Flox homozygous mice and SHBG gene knockout mice were successfully obtained.Compared with control mice,homozygous mice of SHBG gene knockout were well developed and had reproductive ability.The growth and development of SHBG knockout mice were not significantly different from that of wild type mice.Conclusion:Homozygous mice model of SHBG gene knockout was successfully established,which laid the foundation for further study of the role of SHBG in the gestational diabetes.The SHBG gene knockout mouse model was successfully established and the preliminary phenotypic analysis was performed,which laid the foundation for further study on the role of SHBG in gestational diabetes mellitus.SHBG gene knockout mice were normal in appearance.Due to the limited number of samples and many unknown biological characteristics of gene knockout mice,it needs further study.

Objective To investigate the effects of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG)gene in the apoptosis of human trophoblastic cells.Methods The siRNA specific-targeting SHBG gene was transfected into human trophoblastic cells and they were divided into six groups:trophoblasts without transfection in normal control groups(group Ⅰ);transfect liposome in blank control groups(group Ⅱ);transfect nonspecific siRNA in negative control groups(group Ⅲ);transfect SHBG siRNA-Ⅰ,SHBG siRNA-Ⅱ,SHBG siRNA-Ⅲ respectively in trans-fection group(group Ⅳ,Ⅴ,Ⅵ).Hoechst 33258 dying method was used to detect cell apoptosis.SHBG and Caspase-3 mRNA profiling and the level of SHBG and caspase-3 protein were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot.Results There was no statistical significant difference in the gene expression and protein level of SHBG and caspase-3 in group Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P >0.05).In Ⅳ,Ⅴ and Ⅵ group,there was no statistical significant difference in the expression level of SHBG and caspase 3 (P >0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ,the a-mount of SHBG gene expression decreased obviously,the caspase-3 mRNA and protein level increased obviously and the trophoblast cell ap-optosis increased markedly (P <0.05).Conclusion Through siRNA interference technology can reduce SHBG gene expression in human trophoblastic cells,and it can lead to excessive apoptosis of human trophoblasts cells.

Objective To investigate the effects and the mechanism of tirofiban administration in myocardial ischemical reperfusion injury(MIRI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Method The study included 158 STEMI Patients who accepted primary PCI therapy and were randomly (random number) divided into two groups: tirofiban administration group and control group. Incidence of MIRI during PCI, Correct TIMI frame count(CTFC), ST segment resolution(STR), peak value and peak time of MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase( CK-MB), and incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during 30 days postoperation in both groups were measured. Results Tirofiban administration group was superior to control group in terms of incidence of MIRI, CTFC, STR, peak value and peak time of CK-MB, and incidence of MACE during 30 days postoperation (P < 0.05). Multiple factor logistic regression analysis indicated that intravenous tirofiban administration before primary PCI was the independently protective factor for MIRI. Conclusions Intravenous tirofiban administration in patients with STEMI before primary PCI can significantly decrease the incidence of MIRI,reduce myocardial damage and improve the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between circulating microRNA-21 (miR-21 ) and unstable plague in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods A total of 100 consecutive patients with CAD admitted in the department of cardiology in Guangzhou first people’s hospital from January 2012 to December 2014 were enrolled.All patients were checked with coronary angiograph and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)and were divided into two groups according to the presence of unstable plague detected by IVUS:stable plague group (n =45)and unstable plague group (n =55).Another 50 healthy people asking for routine physical examination during the same periods were enrolled as control group.Plasma miRNA-21 of patients were measured by the methods of quantitative realtime fluorescent Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR).Results The levels of plasma miRNA-21 in patients of unstable plague group were significant higher than that in patients of stable plague group and control group (0.87 ±0.10)vs.(0.78 ±0.11)vs.(0.67 ±0.08),P <0.05.The receiver operation curve (ROC)showed that plasma miRNA-21 had great significance in assessing the CAD patients with unstable plague evidenced by the areas under the ROC curve to be 0.869 (95%CI:0.797 -0.940,P <0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that plasma miRNA-21 was one strong independent predicative factor for unstable plague in patients with CAD (P <0.05 ).Conclusions The increasing levels of plasma miRNA-21 had the capabilitiy to predicate the unstable coronary plague in CAD patients.That miRNA-21 may be one valuable biomarker for predicating unstable plague in patients with CAD.

Objective A prospective randomized controlled trial was carried out to explore the best time of In-domethacin suppositories administration for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis in high-risk groups. Methods 81 patients were enrolled in the study finally. Patients were randomized into group A (100 mg rectal Indomethacin suppositories was administrated immediately after ERCP), group B (100 mg rectal Indomethacin suppositories was administrated half an hour after ERCP) and group C (ERCP alone group, which did not give Indomethacin supposito-ries). The level of serum amylase, urine amylase, serum CRP, serum IL-6, serum TNF-α were measured before, 3 h, 24 h and 48 h after ERCP, and the incidence of PEP and hyperamylasemia were analyzed. Results There was 1 case (4.00%) of PEP in group A, 2 cases (5.41%) of PEP in group B and 5 cases (26.31%) of PEP in group C;the incidences of PEP of group A and group B were significant lower than that in group C (P < 0.05). There was 1 case (4.00%) of hyperamylasemia in group A, 5 cases (13.51 %) of hyperamylasemia in group B and 6 cases (31.6 %) of hyperamylasemia in group C, and the incidences of hyperamylasemia of group A and group B were significant lower than that in group C ( P< 0.05). Conclusion Administration of 100 mg Indomethacin suppositories immediately or half an hour after ERCP can effectively reduce the incidence of PEP and hyperamylasemia.

The yeast Sacchromyces cerevisiae is most widely used for producing bioethanol in alcoholic industry due to its higher ethanol yield and fermentation rate. However, the toxic effect of accumulated ethanol is one of the main factors, which limit high ethanol production. Thus, investigating the mechanisms of yeast ethanol tolerance will provide the basis for solving the industrial problem. This article reviewed the mechanisms of Sacchromyces cerevisiae ethanol tolerance focusing on its cell physiological behaviors, structure and biochemical composition, as well as its genetic basis.
