Objective The aim of the study is to approach the clinical significance of the change of ST segments after di- rect percutaneous transcoronary angioplasty(PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI).Methods The change of the ST segments on EKG of 76 patients with AMI are observed in 30 minutes after un- derwent direct PICA combined with Lipo-PGE_1,and the relations are analyzed that are prospectively to their therapy effect,the degree of injured cardiac muscle,the cardial functions,and the prognosis.Results The patients who treated with the PCTA combined with Lipo-PGE_1 ST segments on EKG 30 minutes after operations reduced significantly,cardiac muscle is injured lowly,their cardial functions are better.Conclusion The change of ST segments after direct percutane- ous transcoronary angioplasty (PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating acute myocardial infarction is one of the guide line to estimate the perfnsion of cardiac muscle,and to estimate prognosis farther.

We aimed to study the effect of allitridum (All) on the transient outward potassium current (Ito) of ventricular myocytes of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Totally 30 male SHRs were randomly divided into three groups: low-dose All group (7.5 mg·kg(-1)), high-dose All group (15.0 mg·kg(-1)) and normal saline group. The other 10 sex and age matched Wistar-kyoto rats (WKY) were also taken as control group (WKY group). All animals received i.p. administration for 8 weeks. The dual enzymatic method was used to separate single ventricular myocyte from animals. Patch-clamp technique was used to record Ito and analyze the effect of All on the current. It was shown that the left ventricular hypertrophy of SHR was reversed significantly by All. Furthermore, the density of Ito was recovered in both high and low dose All groups. The peak current densities of Ito were enhanced from 18.23±3.64 to 25.17±2.86 pA/pF (P<0.01) and 36.47±5.42 pA/pF (P<0.01) at +50 mV by All 7.5 mg·kg(-1) and 15.0 mg·kg(-1), respectively, which was not significantly different with WKY group. The effect was associated with positive shift of the steady-state, close-state inactivation, and shortened recovery from inactivation of Ito. It is concluded that All decreases the remodeling of Ito of ventricular hypertrophic myocytes of SHR.

Objective To observe the protective effect of hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA) on anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) injury of neonatal primary cardiomyocytes, and its relationship with phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein ki-nase B/glycogen synthase kinase 3β(PI3K/Akt/GSK3β) signaling pathway. Methods Primary cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats were isolated from the rats and incubated for 48 hours. The cells were adhered to each other and then divided into five groups:control group (Con group), anoxia/reoxygenation group (A/R group),HSYA treatment group(A/R+H group),PI3K inhibitor (LY294002)treatment group(A/R+L group)and HSYA+LY294002 treat-ment group (A/R+H+L group),then to collect the supernatant fluid of each group to measure LDH.The flow cy-tometry was used to measure the apoptotic cells. The protein levels of Bcl-2,Bax,Akt,p-Akt (Ser473),GSK3β, p-GSK3β (Ser9) were evalated by Western blot. Results A/R increased LDH release,the apoptosis rate (P<0.001),and the expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax (P <0.001) with the decrease of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2,p-Akt(Ser473), p-GSK3β(Ser9)(P<0.001) as compared with the control group. HSYA treatment de-creased LDH release,the apoptosis rate (P<0.001),and the expression of Bax (P<0.001) and increase the ex-pression of Bcl-2,p-Akt(Ser473),p-GSK3β(Ser9)(P<0.001). Compared with the A/R+H group,the expres-sion of Bax was increased (P<0.001),while the expression of Bcl-2, p-Akt(Ser473), p-GSK3β(Ser9)was de-creased (P<0.001) in the A/R+H+L group. Conclusions HSYA protects rats'cardiomyocytes from anoxia/reoxy-genation injury by regulating PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluated the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor -C(VEGF-C) in children with neurob-lastomaor willms' tumors. Methods The specimens from 33 cases with neuroblastoma and 30 cases with willms' tumors were detected by immunohistochemical staining method. Results In thirty - three cases of neuroblastoma, stage III VEGF - C positive rate were 37.5% (3/8),stage IV were 32% (8/25);favourable histological(FH) were 45%(9/20),unfavourable favourable histological(UFH) were 30.8%(4/13).Cases with distant meta stasis were 32% (8/25),and cases with lymph node involvement were 66.7%(4/6). In 30 cases with willms' tumors,stage I + II were 26.7% (4/15),while stage III + IV were 40% (6/15), FH were 27.3% (6/22), while UFH were 25% (2/8). Cases with distant metastasis were 33.3% (4/12),and cases with lymph node involvement were 60% (3/5). VEGF-C positive expression rate was significantly higher in tumors from children with lymph node metastasis than those without. Conclusion The study shows that expression of VEGF -C is related to lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of prenatal MRI in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of congenital bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS). Methods From January 2009 to December 2014, 16 fetuses with BPS were diagnosed by fetal MRI in Huzhou Maternity and Child Care Hospital and Shanghai Children′s Medical Center Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. The clinical data of these cases were analyzed retrospectively. All were singleton pregnancy, and MRI was carried out within 24-48 hours after routine prenatal ultrasound. All the neonates underwent postnatal enhanced CT scan or surgical biopsy after birth, and the results were compared to prenatal MRI diagnosis. Results (1)With prenatal MRI, 16 cases were diagnosed BPS. The lesions located in left lung in 10 cases, and right lung in 6 cases. As the scope of the lesion, 3 cases located in the whole left lung, 6 cases limited to the left lower lobe, and 1 case was subdiaphragmatic on the left side. 2 cases located in the whole right lung and 4 cases limited to the right lower lobe. One case complicated oligoamnios, and one had pleural effusion. Supplying vessels could be found in 14 cases.(2)When the postnatal results were compared with prenatal MRI, 15 cases were comfirmed as BPS (15/16), including 10 intralobar cases 5 extralobar cases. One that was diagnosed as BPS by prenatal MRI was confirmed to be congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) by pathology. The accuracy of prenatal MRI diagnosis of BPS was 15/16. Prenatal ultrasound missed one case and misdiagnosed two cases, as one was mistakened as CCAM and the other as cystic teratoma. Conclusion Prenatal MRI has good clinical value in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of fetal BPS.

Objective To evaluate the value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in the diagnosis of Crohn's Disease (CD).Methods A total of 436 patients with endoscopically suspected CD underwent EUS and the clinical data of these patients were analyzed retrospectively.Changes of gastrointestinal wall stratification and perienteric complications detected by EUS were documented systematically.The consistency between the diagnosis of EUS and the results of pathology were recorded.Results A total of 297 cases of CD and 139 cases of non-CD were clinically diagnosed,while 277 CDs (including 17 non-CDs clinically diagnosed) and 159 non-CDs (including 37 CDs clinically diagnosed) were diagnosed by EUS.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy rate of EUS in diagnosing CD were 87.5％ (260/297),87.8％ (122/139) and 87.6％ (382/436),respectively.Dilated vessels in submucosa were detected in 40 patients,fistulae in 13,abscesses in 5 and enlarged lymph nodes in 75.Conclusion EUS can show gastrointestinal wall stratification of CD clearly with high diagnostic accuracy.Meanwhile,EUS can detect extraluminal complications well to help in providing useful information for surgery.

A fusion protein of glucagons-like peptide-1 and human serum albumin (GLP-1/HSA) was expressed and secreted into the fermentation broth with recombinant Pichia pastoris. The productivity of expressed GLP-1/HSA could reach 63.6mg/L in 10L fermentor. After concentrated with hollow-fiber ultrafiltration membrane, GLP-1/HSA was purified from fermentation broth by hydrophobic chromatography, negative ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography in turn. The HPLC analysis showed that the purified GLP-1/HSA had an overall purity of 95.8%. Furthermore, the analysis of in vivo activity indicated that GLP-1/HSA had the bioactivity of native GLP-1, and could significantly reduce blood glucose level 4h after intraperitoneal administration. It was concluded that a great deal of GLP-1/HSA with higher purity could be harvested by Pichia pastoris expression system and the established purification methods. Preliminary studies show a new potential for developing the long-acting GLP-1 analogs for clinical applications.

Objective Severe preeclampsia, and hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet syndrome (HELLP) are serious complications of pregnancy, and evidence suggests a genetic basis for these conditions. A G1528C mutation in the alpha-subunit of the mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) gene has been identified in association with these conditions. The aim of this study is to explore the carrier rate of the G1528C mutation in the MTP gene in pregnant women with severe preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome and in their newborns, as well as in a normal pregnant population, so as to determine its association with maternal liver disease among women in Beijing. Methods A multicenter, prospective, case control study was carried out. Polymerase chain reaction - restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to screen the G1528C mutations in the MTP gene. One hundred and forty cord blood samples from cases with severe preeclampsia (n=130) and HELLP syndrome (n=10) were collected. Ninety maternal peripheral blood samples among them (84 from severe preeclampsia and 6 from HELLP syndrome) were also collected for screening the common disease-causing mutation in Caucasians. Five hundred and sixty cord blood samples and 90 maternal peripheral blood samples obtained from normal pregnant women served as controls. Results The G1528C mutations in the MTP gene were not found in samples from women with severe preeclampsia and their newborns, from women with HELLP syndrome and their new borns, as well as in samples from the normal pregnant women and their new borns. Conclusions The common disease-causing mutation of G1528C in MTP gene in Caucasians is probably not a common mutation in Chinese Han people in Beijing. Further study is needed to expand the sample size among HELLP syndrome and maternal liver diseases in Chinese population.
