Objective To investigate the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α/ hexokinase Ⅱ (HIF-1α/HKⅡ) signaling pathway in the inhibition of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced apoptosis in the rat cardiomyocytes by hypoxic preconditioning (HPC).Methods Primarily cultured cardiomyocytes obtained from the neonatal rats were seeded in culture dishes at the density of 5× 105cells/ml.The cardiomyocytes were attached to the wall for 72 h and then randomly divided into 6 groups (n=15 each) using a random number table:control group (group C);group H/R;group HPC;HIF-1o inhibitor YC-1 group (group YC-1);group HPC + YC-1;dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group.The ceils were exposed to D-Hank solution saturated with 95％ N2 and 5％ CO2 for 4 h,and then cultured in the normal culture atmosphere for 2 h.The cells in YC-1 and DMSO groups were incubated in the culture medium containing 10 μmol/l YC-1 and 0.1％ DMSO (100 μl) for 24 b,respectively.HPC was induced by 3 cycles of 10 min hypoxia followed by 30 min reoxygenation,and H/R injury model was then established in group HPC.In group HPC+YC-1,the cells were incubated for 5 min in the M199 culture medium supplemented with 10 μmol/L YC-1 and 10％ fetal bovine serum,and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group HPC.After the end of treatments,the apoptosis in cardiomyocytes was detected by TUNEL,the expression of HIF-1α,HKⅡ and cytochrome c was detected by Western blot,and the mitochondrial membrane potential was quantitatively measured using fluorescence.Apoptotic rate was calculated.Results Compared with group C,the apoptotic rate was significantly increased,the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased,and the expression of HIF-1α,HKⅡ and cytochrome c was significantly up-regulated in group H/R (P＜0.05).Compared with group H/R,the apoptotic rate was significantly decreased,and the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly increased,and the expression of HIF-1αt and HKⅡ was significantly up-regulated,and the expression of cytochrome c was significantly down-regulated in group HPC (P＜0.05).Compared with group HPC,the apoptotic rate was significantly increased,the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased,the expression of HIF-1α and HKⅡ was significantly down-regulated,and the expression of cytochrome c was significantly up-regulated in group HPC+YC-1 (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which HPC inhibits H/R-induced apoptosis in rat cardiomyocytes is associated with activation of HIF-1α/HKⅡ signaling pathway.

Objective To study curative efficacy of granisetron in treatment of postoperative severe vomiting after posterior scleral reinforcement . Methods 84 patients of posterior scleral reinforcement who received therapy from January 2012 to December 2014 in our hospital were selected as research objects.According to random number table,those patients were divided into the control group (n=100) and the observation group (n=100), the control group were treated with ondansetron hydrochloride at the end of surgery, while the observation group were treated with granisetron at the end of surgery.Then postoperative sedation, analgesia, nausea, vomiting and so on.were compared.Results There were no significant differences in anesthesia time, operation time and remifentanil dosage between the two groups.The Ramsay scores of the observation group were (2.49 ±0.31), (2.23 ±0.34) and (2.10 ±0.28) points at 30 min, 1h and 2h after operation, respectively.In the control group, Ramsay scores were (3.02 ±0.42), (2.84 ±0.37), (2.45 ±0.34) at 30 min, 1h and 2h after operation, lower than the control group.The incidence of nausea and vomiting in the observation group were 9.52% ( 4/32 ) , 11.90% ( 5/42 ) respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups in the postoperative analgesia The total incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was 30.95% (13/42) and 30.95% (13/42) respectively, which were lower than the control group (P <0.05).Conclusion Granisetron is well for postoperative posterior scleral reinforcement, which can reduce the incidence of postoperative severe vomiting, it’s worthy of application and promotion.

Objective To study the expression of sex hormone-binding globulin(SHBG),insulin signaling pathway and glucose transporter in placenta of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM),and to explore its role in the pathogenesis of GDM. Methods A total of 10 full-term and non-obese(BMI<25 kg/m2)pregnancy women diagnosed with GDM and 10 normal pregnant cases were recruited for the study. Placental tissues were collected respectively. The expression of protein and mRNA of SHBG and insulin signal transduction(IRS-1,ISR-2,PI3K p85α)and glucose transporter proteins(GLUT-1,GLUT-3,GLUT-4)in placental tissue were detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting. Pearson and linear regression analysis were used to evaluate the correlation among the related indicators. Results In the placental tissue of non-obese women,there existed a decrease(P<0.05)in the expression of protein and mRNA of SHBG with a concurrent a decrease(P<0.05)in the expression of protein and mRNA of GLUT-4 in GDM women compared with normal controls. Furthermore ,a decrease(P<0.05)of GLUT-3 and IRS-1 protein expression with lower(P<0.05)IRS-2 mRNA expression was also observed in placental tissue from GDM patients. No changes were found in PI3K p85α and GLUT-1 at both protein and mRNA levels(P>0.05). Results of linear correlation analysis showed that there were positive correlations between SHBG mRNA and IRS-2 mRNA(P<0.05),SHBG mRNA and PI3K p85α mRNA(P<0.05),and SHBG mRNA and GLUT-4 mRNA(P<0.05). There was also a remarkable positive correlation between IRS-2 mRNA and GLUT-4 mRNA(P<0.01). There existed negative correlations between IRS-1 mRNA and PI3K p85α mRNA(P<0.05),and IRS-1 mRNA and GLUT-3 mRNA(P<0.05). There existed a remarkable positive correlation between IRS-2 mRNA and GLUT-1 mRNA(P<0.01). Conclusion The defective receptors of insulin signaling pathway are present in GDM placental tissue. Decreased expression of SHBG may be involved in the regulation insulin signaling ,leading to a concomitant decrease expression of relevant insulin signaling components in placental tissue ,implying insulin resistance and developing GDM finally.

Thanks to its high resolution, high automation and flexible integration, online two-dimensional liquid chromatography has great potential for screening active ingredients from complex matrices by integrating a highly specific bio-recognition process into a two-dimensional liquid chromatography system before, on or after the column separation. This review comprehensively summarized recent developments, applications and shortcomings of online two-dimensional liquid chromatography for natural product screening from different integration modes, including pre-column, on-column and post-column screening methods.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Chinese medicine and pharmacy (CMP) on the mortality of senile HIV/AIDS patients as adjunctive therapy.

METHODSHIV/AIDS patients of a certain rural area of Hanna Province, who were recruited in national CMP HIV treatment trial program (NTCMTP) in 2004, were enrolled as the CMP treatment group. HIV/AIDS patients in the same village without recruiting in NTCMTP were enrolled as the non-CMP treatment group. Data related to subjects were collected from the database of NTCMTP and National HAART Reporting System. Multiple regression analysis under Cox proportional hazard model was applied to examine the risk factors for death of senile HIV/AIDS patients.

RESULTSA total of 436 HIV/AIDS were enrolled in this study, 204 in the CMP treatment group and 232 in the non-CMP treatment group. There were 70 AIDS-relative deaths in the CMP treatment group, with 8-year mortality rate of 37.74%. There were 111 AIDS-relative deaths in the non-CMP treatment group, with 8-year mortality rate of 48.34%. The 8-year mortality rate was higher in the non-CMP treatment group than in the CMP treatment group (chi2 = 5.136, P < 0.05). Results of univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed the hazard ratio in the non-CMP treatment group was 1.41 times that of the CMP treatment group (P < 0.05). Result of multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed the hazard ratio in the non-CMP treatment group was 1.44 times that of the CMP treatment group (P < 0.05). Besides, gender and marital conditions were significantly associated with death of HIV/AIDS patients.

CONCLUSIONCMP treatment was favorable to lower the mortality rate of senile HIV/AIDS patients, and its objective evaluation awaits for further prospective study.
