Aim To observe changes of gene expression profile in rat heart , liver and brain treated with iptakalim using cDNA microarray and analyze its molecule mechanism about pharmacology and treatment. Methods ①Rats were treated with iptakalim for 14 days at a dose of 3 mg?kg-1 by gavage. Total RNA was extracted from heart, liver and brain tissues and reversely transcribed to cDNA, which were labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 fluorescent as probes and hybridized to Gene Chip (BiostarR-40s). Scan array 3 000 was used for scanning the hybridizing signals and ImageGENE 3.0 for data analysis. Data were confirmed using RT-PCR. ②Rats were randomly divided into normal control group and 4 iptakalim groups. Iptakalim was administered orally at doses of 1, 3, 9 mg?kg-1 body weight per day for 2 weeks. The last group was orally administered at a dose of 9 mg?kg-1 body weight per day for 2 weeks, and iptakalim was withdrawn for 10 days. We observe effects of iptakalim on hemodynamics parameters in anesthetized rats and changes of myocardial structure, myofilament ultra-structure after 24h at the end of the last administration. Results ① The new chemical entity iptakalim had selectivity on changes of gene expression in rat heart, liver and brain. Compared with control group, 236 genes are changed (100 increased and 136 decreased) in rat hearts and 6 transcripts (6 increased) in rat livers, there are no changes on gene expression in rat brains. ② In anesthetized rats, iptakalim at doses of 1, 3, 9 mg?kg-1 neither affected pharmacological effects on cardiovascular hemodynamics parameters nor had pathological changes on myocardial morphological and ultrastructure. Conclusion Under the same experimental conditions, the new chemical entity iptakalim has selectivity on changes of gene expression in vital organs. Iptakalim shows no side-effects on cardiac function and tissue structure.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features,the diagnosis and therapy of primary pulmonary perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa). Methods One case of primary pulmonary perivascular epithelioid cell tumor diagnosed and treated in April 2010 was presented. The clinical symptoms,imaging, pathology features, treatment and follow-up record of the patient were analyzed retrospectively,and relevant literatures were reviewed. Results The patient had not special clinical symptoms and was found through the medical checkup. The imaging methods could easily find the tumor but hard to diagnose it. The final diagnosis depended on the pathologic features and immunohistochemistry techniques. Among present literatures, scarce cases of pulmonary malignant PEComa were reported. Conclusion Primary pulmonary PEComa is a very rare tumor that arises from mesenchymal tissues, especially the malignant cases. The diagnosis of PEComa mainly depends on the pathological features. Because of the uncertain biologic behavior pulmonary PEComa should be followed up closely for a long term.

BACKGROUND: Experimental and clinical experiences show that the surface roughness of dental restoration materials directly affects bacterial adhesion; in addition, the material composition and physicochemical properties are also important influencing factors. OBJECTIVE: To compare the bacterial adhesion of zirconia ceramics and nickel chromium al oy as oral materials. METHODS: Zirconia ceramics and nickel chromium al oy were respectively cut into 10 pieces of 3. 0 cm ×3.0 cm×0. 2 cm plate specimens. For each material, five pieces were subjected to surface polishing treatment, and the other five pieces were glazed. Surface roughness value of specimens was detected. Experimental strains of Streptococcus mutans was cultured on the specimen surface at 37 ℃ for 48 hours, and the amount of bacteria adhering to the specimen surface was detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Surface roughness of four groups of specimens showed no difference. The amount of bacteria that adhered to the polishing specimens of zirconia ceramics was significantly lower than that of nickel chromium al oy (P < 0.05), but no difference was found in the amount of bacteria adhering to the glazing specimens of nickel-chromium al oy and zirconia ceramics. These findings indicate that zirconia ceramics has better ability to inhibit bacterial adhesion than nickel-chromium al oy, especial y after glazing.
