Bibenzyl is a type of active compounds abundant in Dendrobium. In the present study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of six bibenzyls isolated from Dendrobium species on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced tube formation in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). All those bibenzyls inhibited VEGF-induced tube formation at 10 micromol x L(-1) except tristin, and of which moscatilin was found to have the strongest activity at the same concentration. The lowest effective concentration of moscatilin was 1 micromol x L(-1). Further results showed that moscatilin inhibited VEGF-induced capillary-like tube formation on HUVECs in a concentration-dependent manner. Western blotting results showed that moscatilin also inhibited VEGF-induced phosphorylation of VEGFR2 (Flk-1/KDR) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2). Further results showed that moscatilin inhibited VEGF-induced activation of c-Raf and MEK1/2, which are both upstream signals of ERK1/2. Taken together, results presented here demonstrated that moscatilin inhibited angiogenesis via blocking the activation of VEGFR2 (Flk-1/KDR) and c-Raf-MEK1/2-ERK1/2 signals.

ObjectiveTo explore the change of spino-pelvic parameters following pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) for thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to ankylosing spondylitis(AS).MethodsTwenty-one AS patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis,who underwent PSO at L1 level from July 2006 to October 2010 in our hospital,were retrospectively reviewed.There were 18 males and 3 females with a mean age of 35.6 years (range,21-53 years).The pre- and post-operative thoracic kyphosis(TK),lumbar lordosis (LL),globe kyphosis (GK),angle of the fusion levels (AFL),sagittal imbalance (SVA),pelvic incidence (PI),sacral slope (SS) and pelvic tilting (PT) were measured.ResultsSignificant differences were observed in terms of the improvement of LL,PT,SS,SVA,GK and AFL (P＜ 0.01).The alteration of LL showed significant correlation with the change of PT (r=0.59,P=0.005),SS (r=0.64,P=0.002),SVA (r=0.49,P=0.025),and AFL (r=0.60,P=0.004).The change of PT exhibited cardinal correlation with the change of SS(r=0.94,P=0.000).The improvement of AFL significantly correlated with the improvement of SS(r=0.61,P=0.003),PT (r=0.59,P=0.005).ConclusionThe change of the sagittal spino-pelvic profile following PSO in AS-related thoracolumbar kyphosis is closely related with the improvement of LL.

Aim To explore the role of AMPK/ PGC-1α pathway in cardioprotection of hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S ) against ischemia/reperfusion ( I/R ) injury. Methods Langendorff perfusion apparatus was used to build an isolated rat myocardial I/R model. Seventy-two male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=12):control group (Control), ischemia/reperfu-sion group ( I/R ) , DMSO group ( DMSO ) , inhibitor Compound C group ( CC) , H2 S postconditioning group ( NP) , and H2 S with Compound C group ( N +C ) . The heart rate ( HR ) , the left ventricular developed pressure ( LVDP ) , the maximum rate of increase or decrease of left ventricular pressure ( ± dp/dtmax ) and the left ventricular diastolic pressure ( LVEDP ) were registered at 20 min of baseline and 60 min of reperfu-sion separately. Triphenyl tetrazolium chloride ( TTC) staining and HE staining were used to determine the myocardial infarct size and the myocardial tissue mor-phological change of each group was observed respec-tively. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of PGC-1α. The expressions of total AMPK ( tAMPKα ) , phosphorylated AMPK ( pAMPKα) and PGC-1α were detected with Western blot anaylsis. Results There were no differences in e-quilibrium hemodyamics observed between the experi-mental groups(P>0. 05). At the end of reperfusion, compared with I/R group, NP group had obviously a-meliorated functional recovery and significantly de-creased myocardial infarct size [ ( 23. 9 ± 3. 4 )% vs (60. 9 ± 3. 8 )%, ( P <0. 05 ) ] . HE staining showed that in NP group, the myocardial injury was reduced. Meanwhile, the expression of pAMPKα and PGC-1αincreased significantly. However, Compound C re-versed the cardioprotection effects provided by hydro-gen sulfide postconditioning and reduced the expression of pAMPKαand PGC-1α. Conclusion AMPK/ PGC-1α pathway is involved in the role of hydrogen sulfide against ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Objective To investigate the effect of apoptosis-related gene p53 on the apoptosis of retinal capillary cells in rats with spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) after ischemic reperfusion injury. Methods A total of 60 SHR rats were randomly divided into sham group (SHR-SH) and retinal ischemie reperfusion group (SHR-RIR), which were subdivided into 5 subgroups according to the time after RIR: 2, 6, 24, and 72 hours and 7 days, with 6 rats in each subgroup. Another 60 Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were divided into the same groups as the SHR rats as the control. The RIR model was set up. The apoptosis of retinal capillary cells was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) methods and the expression of p53 was determined by streptavidin-perosidase (SP) immunohistochemistry. Results The apoptosis rate of retinal capillary cells in the 5 SHR-RIR groups was (8.64±0.56)%, (14.92±0.99)%, (24.72±2.98)%, (16.53±1.80)%, and (7.12±1.10)%,respectively. The expression of p53 in SHR-RIR groups increased at the 2nd hour after RIR, reached the peak at the 24th hour, kept the high level at the 72nd hour, and remained a little at the 7th day, which was significantly different from which in the SHR-SH groups (P<0. 01). The expression of p53 were higher in SHR-IR groups than that in the WKY-RIR groups (P<0. 01). Conclusions p53 may play a part in RIR injury by inducing or promoting apoptosis. The apoptosis of retinal capillary cells after RIR is more severe under the hypertension, and reaches the peak at the 24 hour after RIR.
