Objective To explore the effect of the liver acquired expression of apolipoprotein B editing catalytic polypeptide-1 (Apobec-1) on hyperlipidemia of renal disease. Methods Thirty healthy ordinary level male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group, nephropathy group, and Apobec-1 treatment group (Each group has 10 rabbits). Adapt feeding for one week, nephropathy group and Apobec-1 treat-ment group underwent left nephrectomy, and one week later, adriamycin (4 mg / kg) was used to construct the ne-phropathy model by ear vein injection. The eleventh week after operation, apobec-1 recombinant adenovirus (1 × 1013 Virus/ kg) was injected by ear vein in apobec-1 treatment group. The twelfth week after operation, all rabbits were sacrificed. Right kidney, liver, blood and 24h urine were left. In three groups, 24 hour urinary protein (24UPr), albumin (Alb), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), blood lipid were detected. Renal pa-thology was observed by HE staining. Expressions of liver apobec-1, apolipoprotein B48(ApoB48)were observed by Western blot. Results ① Compared with the sham operation group, nephropathy group showed that 24UPr, BUN, Cr, total cholesterol (TC), total triglyceride (TG), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) were increased(P < 0. 05), but Alb was decreased(P <0. 05). ② Compared with the nephropathy group, Apobec-1 treatment group showed that TC, TG, VLDL-C, LDL-C, ApoB100, ApoB48 were decreased(P < 0. 05). ③ Compared with the sham operation group, Apobec-1 treat-ment group showed that 24UPr, BUN, Cr were increased( P < 0. 05), but Alb, ApoB48 were decreased( P <0. 05). ④ Compared with the sham operation group and nephropathy group, Apobec-1 treatment group showed that the expression of Apobec-1 and ApoB48 were up-regulated (P < 0. 01). Conclusion When liver aquires expres-sion of Apobec-1 in hyperlipidemia of renal disease, it can reconstruct ApoB mRNA, increase the synthesis of ApoB48-lipoprotein, and play a certain lipid-lowering effect.

Objective To observe the effect of liver acquired expression of apobec-1 on blood lipid metabolism, hepatic low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), and hepatic low density lipoprotein receptor related protein (LRP) in nephrotic syndrome(NS) rabbits and to explore the lipid-lowering effect and possible mechanism.Methods Thirty healthy ordinary level male new Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation group (n =10), N S group (n =10), and apobec-1 treatment group (n =10).Adaptive feeding was given for 1 week, then NS group and apobec-1 treatment group underwent left nephrectomy,and 1 week later,adriamycin (4 mg/kg) was used to construct the NS model by way of ear vein injection.In the 11th week after operation, apobec-1 recombinant adenovirus (1 × 1013 virus/kg) was injected through ear vein in apobec-1 treatment group.The 12th week after operation, all rabbits were sacrificed.Right kidney, liver, blood and 24 hour urine were collected.In 3 groups, 24 hour urinary protein (24UPr), albumin (Alb), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), blood lipid were detected.Renal pathology was observed by means of HE staining.Expressions of liver LDLR, LRP were observed by using Western blot.Results (1) There were significant differences among the 3 groups in 24UPr (F =42.778, P =0.000), Alb (F =3.819, P =0.034), BUN (F =6.562, P =0.005), Cr (F =16.076, P =0.000), total cholesterol (TC) (F =17.531, P =0.000), total triglyceride (TG) (F =6.192, P =0.006), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL-C) (F =6.192, P =0.006), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (F =34.924, P =0.000) and apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) (F =5.180, P =0.012) and apolipoprotein B48 (ApoB48) (F =6.161, P =0.006).(2) Compared with the sham operation group, NS group showed that 24UPr, BUN, Cr, TC, TG, VLDL-C, LDL-C, ApoB100 increased, but Alb decreased, and there was statistical significance (all P ＜ 0.05).(3) Compared with NS group, apobec-1 treatment group showed that TC, TG, VLDL-C, LDL-C, ApoB 100, ApoB48 decreased, and there were statistical significances (all P ＜ 0.05).(4) Compared with the sham operation group, apobec-1 treatment group showed that 24UPr, BUN, Cr increased, but Alb, apolipoprotein B48 (ApoB48) decreased, there were statistical significances (all P ＜ 0.05).(5) There were significant differences of hepatic protein expression among the 3 groups in LRP (F =44.180, P =0.000), LDLR (F =63.141 ,P =0.000).Compared with the sham operation group and NS group, apobec-1 treatment group showed that the expression of LRP was up-regulated (P ＜ 0.01,0.05), while the expression of LDLR was down-regulated (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions When liver acquired expression of apobec-1 in NS, it could up-regulate LRP,accelerate the elimination of ApoB48-lipoproteins, and produce a certain lipid-lowering effect.

C-type natriuretic peptide(CNP),mainly expressed in central nervous system and vascular endothelial cells maintains renal homeostasis by autocrine or paracrine pathway,which regulates water-electrolyte metabolism,vascular resistance,glomerular permeability,and cell proliferation.Thus,clarifying the characteristics of CNP metabolism in kidney would appear promising to develop some new prospects for the evaluation of kidney injury and the targeted therapy.

Objectives To study the expression features of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)/natriuretic peptide receptor-B (NPR-B) axis and two parallel elimination pathways, natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C) and neutral endopeptidase (NEP) in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) rats. Methods CNP, NPR-B, NPR-C, NEP, Col-IV and type IV collagen (Col-IV) mRNA and proteins were determined by in situ hybridization, real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and western blot in UUO rats at 24h, 72h, 1w, 2w, 3w, 1m, 2m and 3m. Results CNP expression tended to be higher immediately after ligation and de-clined along with the progression of disease, occurring predominantly in tubular epithelial cells. A high-level CNP may attribute to the elevated expression of NPR-B in the early phase of UUO. Conclusions NEP and NPR participate in the regulation of CNP expression in tubulointerstitial fibrosis. The gradual increased expression of NPR-C and NEP may cause the subsequent de-cline of CNP.

Objective To study the inhibiting effect of genistein and cisplatin on tumor recurrence and metastasis after hepatectomy in mice. Methods A posthepatectomy high-metastatic-and-recurrent athymic mouse model simulating human HCC was established.Genistein,cisplatin,and combination genistein and cisplafin respectively were given intraperitoneally.Mice were sacrificed after 4 weeks,the volume and pulmonary metastasis of the recurrent tumor was observed.Caculate q value using Jin Zhengjun formula was used to evaluate the synergistic effect of combination genistein and cisplatin.Immunohistochemistry and real time fluorescent quantitation PCR were used to detect the expression of MMP2 and MMP-2 mRNA in liver recurrent tumor. Results Compared with single drug group,mice in genistein combined with cisplatin group had smaller liver recurrent focus volume,less pulmonary metastasis.Genistein and cisplatin displayed additional inhibiting effect on tumor recurrence and metastasis after hepatectomy in vivo,and displayed synergistic inhibiting effect on pulmonary metastasis.The MMP-2 expression of the recurrent tumor in single cisplatin group increased compared with control group(t=26.17、P＜0.05),while in single genistein group and genistein and cisplatin combined group it decreased(t=5.58,13.90,P＜0.05).The expression of MMP-2 mRNA in genistein group was 90%the level of the control group,in cisplatin group it was 2.06 times that of the control group,in combination genistein and cisplatin group it was 44%the level of the control group. Conclusions In vivo,genistein reinforces the effect of cisplatin in inhibiting tumor recurrence and metastasis after hepatectomy,possibly by a mechanism in which genistein inhibits the up-regulation of MMP-2 induced by cisplatin.

ObjectiveTo construct a mouse model for studying pathophysiology and mechanism of human Chlamydia trachomatis genital infection.MethodsInnate immunity-deficient C3H/HeJ female mice were infected intravaginally with human C.trachomatis serovar D urogenital isolates for screening the highest violent clinical strain.The clinical strain UT0603 as well as standard strain D/UW-3/CX were then used to reinfect na(i)ve mice,the lower genital tract shedding were monitored by swabbing every 3-7 day over the entire infection period by culture.Some mice were sacrificed at early infection stage to detection of in site Chlamydia growth by immunofluorescence assay,then all the mice were sacrificed at later infection stage to evaluate upper genital tract gross pathology and histopathological characterization.ResuIts In the lower genital tract,Chlamydia shedding time course were significantly prolonged in clinical strain infected mice.Chlamydia not only growth in the lower genital tract,the live organism also ascending and growth in the upper genital tissue.The gross appearance under naked eyes and dilation and inflammation scores under microscope all showed that the genital tract pathology from the clinical strain infected mice were much more severe than standard strain infected control mice.Conclusion Together,all these results demonstrated that a mouse model for Chlamydia genital infection was constructed.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Flu/CTX conditioning regimen for the treatment of severe aplastic anemia in pa- tients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods Nine patients with severe aplastic anemia received HLA identi- cal peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) using Flu/CTX conditioning regimen, which consisted of fludarbine [30 mg/(m2 d) for5 days (-7 to -3) ], CTX [50mg/(kg d) for4 days(-5 to-2)]. All patients received cyclosporin A (CsA) and mycophenolet mofetil (MMF) for prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease(GVHD). Results The Fiu/CTX regimen was very well toler- ated, with no severe regimen related toxicity. In all patients, the median days of neutrephil exceeding 0. 5×109/L and platelet exceeding 20 ×109/L were 12 days (range 10-16 days) and 16 days (range 14-19 days), respectively. Complete chimerism was achieved in all pa- tients at one month after PBSCT. Two patients had acute GVHD and one had chronic GVHD. In the 39-month median follow-up duration, all patients were alive in disease-free situation. Conclusion The Flu/CTX conditioning regimen may reduce transplantation-related toxicities and can achieve full chimerism and high long-term disease-free survival. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using intravenous Fiu/CTX conditioning regimen is a safe and effective treatment method for the patients with severe aplastic anemia.
