Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHCD) pretreatment on expression of NF-κB and iNOS in rats with LPS-induced brain injury. Methods One hundred and five male SD rats weighing 200-220 g were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=21 each): group Ⅰ normal saline (NS);group Ⅱ LPS (L);group Ⅲ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ PHCD 0.05, 0.15, 0.45 mg/kg (D1,2,3). The animals were anesthetized with chloral hydrate 350 mg/kg. Brain injury was induced by intra-arterial LPS 150 μg administered via left internal carotid artery in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ. In group Ⅲ,Ⅳ, and Ⅴ PHCD 0.05, 0.15 and 0.45 mg/kg were given intraperitoneally (IP) at 10 min before intra-arterial LPS. The animals were decapitated at 4, 6 and 12 h after administration of PHCD (n=7 at each time point in each group). The brains were immediately removed for determination of water content, expression of NF-κB and iNOS protein and examination with light and electron microscope. Results Water content of the brain and expression of NF-κB and iNOS protein were significantly higher in group L, D1, D2 and D3 than in group NS and were significantly lower in group D2 and D3 than in group L. Intra-arterial LPS produced severe damage to the brain which was significantly attenuated by PHCD in group D2 and D3. Conclusion PHCD 0.15,0.45 mg/kg pretreatment can attenuate LPS-induced brain injury by inhibiting the up-regulation of expression of NF-κB and iNOS.

Objective To investigate the expression and prognostic role of ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) in human endometrial carcinoma.Methods 51 endometrial carcinoma tissues and matched tumor-adjacent tissues were collected from Jan.2010 to Dec.2011 in People's Hospital of Linzi District of Zibo City and Penglai People's Hospital.mRNA expression of ARF6 was detected by qRT-PCR,and the protein expression of ARF6 was detected by immunohistochemistry.The correlation between ARF6 and clinicopathological features was analyzed by chi-square test,and the Kaplan-Meier survival curves were drawn to describe the prognostic effects of ARF6 expression.Results Both mRNA and protein expression of ARF6 were down-regulated in endometrial carcinoma tissues than those in matched tumor-adjacent tissues (P＜0.05).Positive expression of ARF6 was associated with lynphatic metastasis (P＜0.05) and advanced TNM stage (Ⅲ+Ⅴ,P＜0.05).Both the 3-year overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate were lower in ARF6 positive expression group than in ARF6 negative expression group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Positive expression of ARF6 in human endometrial carcinoma is related to the malignant clinicopathological features and poor prognosis.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of single fiber electromyography (SFEMG) in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).Methods The values of jitter and fiber density (FD) in 36 patients with diabetes mellitus of 2 type were determined by Viking Ⅳ, while conventional nerve conduction studies (NCS) were performed,and the fasting blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin A 1C (HbA 1C ) were measured.Results The values of jitter were associated with FD, and both jitter and FD were positively related to HbA 1C .18 cases with abnormal NCS showed increased jitter(11 cases with block),and increased FD in 14 cases; the remaining 18 cases with normal NCS,7 cases with increased jitter(3 cases with block),the increased FD in 5 cases.Conclusion Denervation reinnervation reflected by jitter and FD was associated with the metabolic status. SFEMG could be served as sensitive means to early diagnosis of DPN, and might detect subclinical peripheral neuropathy of diabetes.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of F wave in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).Methods F and M wave parameters were measured in 106 patients with diabetes mellitus and 75 normal persons, including the minimum latency, duration, amplitude and area of F wave, and the amplitude and the area of M wave.Results (1) In the 30 patients with diabetes mellitus without peripheral neuropathy, there were 8 cases with prolonged the duration of F wave, 4 cases with prolonged the minimum latency of F wave, 2 cases with increased in the ratio of the area of F/M wave. (2) The minimum latency prolonged of F wave, the ratio of the amplitude of F/M wave and the ratio of the area of F/M wave significantly increased in the 76 patients with DPN, the duration of F wave prolonged in the mild DPN but no one revealed remarkable abnormal. (3) In the controls, the function of upper limit of the minimum latency of F wave (Y) and leg length (X) was Y=12.3+48.8X 2. Conclusion (1) F wave could be served as sensitive index to the early diagnosis of DPN, and might detect subclinical DPN. (2) The proximal nerve segment could be affected without the lesions of the distal nerve segment in patients with DPN, and it suggested that vascular factor plays an important role in the mechanism of DPN.

Objective:To explore diagnostic effects of 24h dynamic electrocardiogram (DCG) on pacemaker-induced rapid arrhythmias of different locations.Methods: Clinical data of 86 patients, who received pacemaker implantation in our hospital from Feb 2013 to Jan 2016, were retrospectively analyzed.According to ventricular electrode placement location, patients were divided into right ventricular septum (RVS) pacing group (RVS group, n=43) and right ventricular apex (RVA) pacing group (RVA group, n=43).The Tp-Te interval and occurrence of arrhythmias detected by 24h DCG were recorded and compared between two groups.Results: All patients received pacemaker implantation successfully, and pacemaker was fixed on RVS or RVA.There were no significant difference in pacing threshold, impedance and R wave amplitude between two groups, P>0.05 all.Compared with RVA group, there were significant reductions in Tp-Te intervals of V3 lead [(102.78±19.24)ms vs.(94.39±18.56)ms] and V4 lead [(96.39±13.11)ms vs.(85.87±14.59)ms] in RVS group (P=0.001 both).There were no significant difference in incidence rates of sinus arrest, II° sinoatrial block, atrioventricular block, atrial premature beats, transient paroxysmal atrial tachycardia and ventricular premature beats between two groups (P>0.05 all).Conclusion: The 24h DCG indicates that compared with RVA pacing, the Tp-Te interval of RVS pacing group significantly shorten, it may can better protect cardiac function.

Objective To study the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of bortezomib in primary acute leukemia cells from elderly patients.Methods Primary acute leukemia cells were treated with bortezomib 50-5000 nmol/L for 24-48 h,cell proliferation was analysed by MTT assay; apoptosis of primary acute leukemia cells was observed by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry; protein expression of bcl-2 and Bax was detected by Western blot.Results The cell viability was 90 ％ and 70 ％ when leukemia cells were treated with 50 and 5000 nmol/L bortezomib for 24 h,respectively.Meanwhile,cells showed (10.2±2.3) ％ and (13.3±3.3) ％ apoptosis.With prolonged treatment for 48 h,cell viability decreased to 86 ％ and 60 ％,respectively,while the apoptosis rates were increased to(18.4±3.9) ％ and(20.7±3.7) ％.Compared to the control group 0 nmol/L bortezomib,the differences were statistically significant (F =53.76,F =7.74,F =54.49,F =16.94,all P values ＜ 0.05).With the increase of bortezomib concentration,the bcl-2 protein expression was decreased,while Bax was up-regulated.Conclusion Bortezomib can inhibit primary leukemia cells from elderly patients proliferation and induce apoptosis.The mechanism may be associated with the changes in bcl-2 family protein expression.

Objective To explore influence of thoracic duct ligation on lipid metabolism after esophagectomy. Methods Seventy-four patients with esophageal cancer received esophagectomy were divided into two groups by their thoracic duct ligation, 39 in ligation group and 35 in non-ligation group. All the patients were fed with nutrients through nasal-duodenal tube placed during operation from the 1 st day to the 8th day after surgery, and started taking liquid diet on the 6th day. Blood specimens were collected from the patients on the 1st day after admission, the 9th day, one month and three months after surgery,respectively for biochemical analysis,including determinations of total cholesterol(TC),triglyeeride(TG),high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( LDL-C) . Databetween the two groups were compared with statistical analysis. Results No significant difference in plasma levels of TC, TG and HDI.-C was found between the two groups at varied time points. Plasma level of LDL-C in the ligation group significantly decreased on the 9th day after surgery, as compared with that in the nonligation group ( P ＜ 0. 05), and went down to the lowest level one month after surgery. Conclusions Chylomicron was blocked to enter blood stream and production of LDL-C decreased by thoracic duct ligation,which affect lipid absorption and metabolism leading to poor early nutrition in patients with esophagealsurgery due to slower establishment of collateral circulation.
