Objective To observe the effects of intensive-swimming training at different intensities on the neurological function and the expressions of protein kinase A after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats,and to explore the possible neuroprotection mechanism of intensive-swimming training after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods The animal model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion was established in rats by using the intraluminal thread method to cause left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 h and then reperfusion.A total of 120 male model Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into training group 1 (swimming for 5 min once a day),training group 2 (swimming for 10 min once a day),training group 3 (swimming for 20 min once a day) and control group (no training),with 30 rats in each group.Another 30 rats who were assigned to the sham-operation group were subject to no MCAO and no training.At the 3rd,7th and 14th day post operation,10 rats randomly selected from each group were examined for their neurological function by Menzies neurobehavioral test and forelimb placing test.Expressions of protein kinase A were detected by immunohistochemistry method.Expressions of PKA-mRNA were detected by using RT-PCR.Results The neurological function in sham-operation group was normal.The differences between sham-operation group and control group with regard to Menzies test and forelimb placing test scores were statistically significant at all the time points (P ＜ 0.05).The improvement of neurological function in all training groups,were significantly better than those in controls at the 3rd,7th and 14th d after swimming training,especially in training group 3 on the 14th day post-operation (P ＜0.05).At3rd,7th,and 14th days post-operation,the Menziesscores were(1.40±0.55),(1.00 ±0.71)and (0.80 ±0.45),respectively,and the forelimb placing scores were(5.20 ± 0.84),(3.80 ± 1.30) and (2.40 ± 1.14),respectively,in the training group 3.The number of positive cells and the expressions of protein kinase A mRNA were significantly higher in all training groups than those in the controls at the 3rd,7th and 14th days after swimming training,and the increase of positive cells and mRNA of PKA in the training group 3 was significantly more obvious at 14th day compared with other training groups(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Exercise training can increase the expression of positive cells and mRNA of PKA in rats after cerebral ischemiareperfusion,hence,it improved the injured neurological function and promote the recover of sensory and motor function,and the more intensive the training,the better the effects.

Objective To quantitatively investigate the expression levels of the cytosine deaminases,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G in peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)infected patients and to analyze the correlation between cytosine deaminases expression and CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts. Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from 21 HIV-infected subjects who didn't take antiretroviral therapy(ART-),21 HIV-infected subjects receiving ART(ART+),and 10 HIV-uninfected subjects. PBMC were isolated by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, followed by RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis.hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels were determined by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR).CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts were determined using flow cytometry. Data were analyzed by t test, t' test or Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results In HIV-infected subjects without or with ART,HIV-uninfected subjects, the levels of hA3B mRNA were 208.4,365.2 and 563.6,hA3F mRNA were 245.5,316.6 and 442.9,hA3G mRNA were 404.6,360.8 and 638.6,respectively.hA3G mRNA level in HIV-infected subjects was lower than that in HIV-uninfected controls(P=0.0131),but there was no statistical difference between ART+ and ART-groups(P=0.7342).There were no correlations between hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels and CD4+ T lymphocyte counts in either ART-or ART+HIV-infected subjects(ART-:r=-0.0104,r=-0.0545,r=0.1623,all P＞0.05;ART+:r=0.3220,r=0.2193,r=0.1455,all P＞0.05).In addition,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels were positively correlated with one another in ART-HIV-infected subjects and HIV-uninfected controls(P＜0.05),but not in ART-HIV-infected subjects(P＞0.05).Conclusions hA3B,hA3F and hA3G expression levels do not directly correlate with CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts in HIV-1-infected patients,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G expression levels in PBMCs tend to he decreased after HIV-1 infection, and ART may increase hA3B and hA3F mRNA expression.

Objective To study mRNA expression of neuroglobin (NGB) in thalamus of DAI rats and explore the relation between NGB and heed injury. Method 46 male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups. The DAI model was established according to modi-fied Mamamu method. The mRNA expression of NGB in thalamus at different time point after injury was detected by RT-PCR method. All data were analyzed with statistical software. Result The mRNA expression of NGB in thalamus increased obviously from 30 minutes after in-jury while decreased at the 24th hour after injury. But the expression increased again and reached peak at the 48th hour after injury. Conclu-sion The mRNA expression of NGB in thalamus increased after DM. Those changes suggested NGB might participate in the response mech-anism of stress, secondary ischemia and hypoxic brain injury after neuron injury.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of catheter ablation (CA) by endpoint of left atrium (AF)- pulmonary vein (PV) with bi-directional electrical isolation in treating the patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) with remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring.
Methods: A total of 82 AF patients received radio frequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in our hospital and 76 PAF patients were observed. Based on circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) judgment, the PAF patients were divided into 2 groups: Bi-directional block (BDB) group,n=20 and Entrance block (EB) group,n=56. The post-operative rhythm was followed-up by remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring and the clinical efifcacy of CA was prospectively observed.
Results:①All 76 patients finished CA, 1 patient died in EB group at 4 days after operation for pulmonary embolism, the rest 75 patients were followed-up for (31±19) months. The overall success rates of single ablation procedure at 3 months and 6 months after operation were 85.33% and 77.33%; in BDB group were 95.00% and 85.00%, in EB group were 81.82% and 74.55% respectively, the result was similar between 2 groups,P>0.05.②The overall occurrence rates of arrhythmia at 1 week and 3 months after operation were 35.53% and 17.33%; in BDB group were 15.00% and 5.00%, in EB group were 42.86% and 21.82% respectively, the differences between 2 groups were at P=0.049 andP>0.05.③Remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring recorded the patients with asymptomatic atrial arrhythmia at 1 week and 3 months after operation were at 22.22% and 23.08% respectively.
Conclusion:①Compared with EB group, BDB group had obviously lower occurrence rate of arrhythmia at short term after CA.②The overall success rate of single ablation procedure was similar between 2 groups which might be because less patients were studied.③Remote electro-cardio graphic monitoring has certain advantage for evaluating the occurrence of atrial arrhythmia after operation.

AIM: To study the time-dependent effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the development of cardiac remodeling in untreated streptozotocin (STZ)-induced rats with acute myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS: The left anterior descending coronary arteries were ligated 10 weeks after DM induction without any therapy. Transmission electron microscopy, echocardiography, heart weight to tibial length ratios, histological examination, microarray analysis, and real time-PCR were utilized to monitor the changes up to 56 d. RESULTS: After MI, the diabetic rats experienced lower survival rate compared to non-diabetic animals. The pathophysiologic changes indicated that DM accelerated the cardiac remodeling post-infarction. In primary examination, 164 genes related to cardiac remodeling were found to be candidates for hierarchical analysis, such as leucine-rich PPR-motif containing (interleukin-6 signaling pathway), procollagen type I and III, fibronectin-1, RT1, and TIMP-1, etc. The gene expression profile at 14 d in diabetic rats were comparably similar to both 14 d and 28 d in non-diabetic rats, while such changes at 28 d and 56 d in diabetic rats was also similar to the ones at 56 d in non-diabetic rats. CONCLUSION: The accelerated cardiac remodeling of post-infarction in STZ-induced untreated diabetic rats seems be associated with the different profile of gene expressions.

Objective To investigate the association between matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) gene polymorphism (-1562C ＞ T/R279Q) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in Uygur nationality of Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China. Methods A total of 352 patients with ACS including 213 patients with unstable angina pectoris and 139 patients with acute myocardial infarction evidenced by using coronary arteriography and 421 control subjects were recruited in this study. The MMP-9-1562C ＞ T and R279Q genotypes were detemined by using PCR-RFLP method. The relationship between the polymorphism in the MMP-9 gene and the severity of coronary arterial stenosis was analyzed. All polymorphisms were determined for confimation with Hardy-Weinberg expectations in both groups separately. Differences in distributions of genotypes and alleles between two groups were analyzed with x2 test. The association between the MMP-9 polymorphisms and the risk of ACS was estimated by odds ratio(Ors) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and the comprehensive evaluation of the factors associated with ACS was determined by using multifactor logistic regression. P ＜ 0. 05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results The genotype frequencies for CT + TT genotypes and T allele were 25.9 and14.5 percent in ACS subjects and 15.7 and 8.4 percent in control subjects, respectively. The genotype frequencies were different significantly between the two groups (x2 = 12.26,P ＜ 0.01;x2 = 14.15,P ＜ 0.01, respectively). No relationship between R279Q polymorphism and ACS was found in this study ( P ＞ 0.05). The multifactor logistic regression analysis showed that the T allele carrier (CT + TT) significantly increased the risk of ACS compared with the CC genotype ( OR = 1.791,95 % CI: 1. 088 - 2.951, P = 0.022) after adjustment for tradition risk factors. The frequencies for CT + TT and CC genotypes of the -1562C ＞ T polymorphism were not statistically different among ACS patients with one, two and three or more significantly diseased vessels ( x2 = 1.15, P = 0.56). Conclusions The findings suggest that the polymorphism in MMP-9 gene promoter (-1562C ＞ T) is associated with the susceptibility to the ACS. The T allele might be an independent risk factor for the ACS. But the -1562C ＞ T polymorphism may not be useful as a predictor of the severity of coronary arterial stenosis. The R279Q polymorphism of MMP-9 gene was not significantly associated with ACS in this studied population.

Objective To investigate the association between acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the (GT)n repeat sequence polymorphism in promoter region of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) , and to study the influence of serum bilirubin on AMI as well for HO-1 as a rate-limiting enzyme of bilirubin production in patients from Uighur national minority. Method Totally 287 patients with AMI evidenced by coronary arteriography admitted from January 2006 to June 2008 were eligible for being studied, and another 190 healthy subjects without anomaly in coronary arteriography, and with normal findings in physical examination and in variety of biochemical assays were enrolled as controls. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), serum bilirubin were detected. Polymerase chain reaction-nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to detect HO-1 promoter (GT)n repeat polymorphism, and at the same time the serum bilirubin was determined. The group representation of samples was tested with HardyWeinberg balance test. Differences in distributions of genotypes and alleles between AMI patients and control subjects were analyzed using Chi-square test. Comprehensive evaluation of the factors associated with myocardial infarction using multi-factor Logistic regression analysis. P < 0.05 was considered as significantly different. Results Body mass index, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and the proportion with hypertension in myocardial infarction group was significantly higher than those in control group ( P < 0.01) . The X~2 values of HO-1genotype distribution in the myocardial infarction group and the control group were 2.09 and 0.05, respectively (P > 0.05), consist with the results of Hardy-Weinberg balance test. The HO-1 genotype was classified into three groups, L/L, L/S and S/S. The L/L genotype frequency (35.5%) and L-allele frequency (57.8%) in AMI group and in control group showed statistically significant differences, respectively (X~2 = 11.65, P = 0.001; X~2= 11.32, P = 0.003). The bilirubin level of L/L genotype significantly decreased compared with that of S/S, L/S genotype ( P all < 0. 001) . Logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index, high blood pressure,triglycerides, blood bilirubin and HO-1 gene polymorphism are risk factors of myocardial infarction. Conclusions To the Xinjiang Uighur ethics, HO-1 promoter ( GT) n repeat polymorphism and the occurrence of myocardial infarction are relevant. People with L allele genotype have lower serum bilirubin and higher risk of myocardial infarction.
