    2012, 40 (1):  0-20 . 
    Abstract ( 1249 )   PDF (1780KB) ( 1894 )  
    Abstract Objective: To study the different expression and clinical significance of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) in the prostate carcinoma. Methods: SABC immunohistochemical analysis was used to determine the expression levels of HIF-1α and VEGF-C in 59 cases of prostate carcinoma (PC) and 13 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The expression and relationship of HIF-1α and VEGF-C with clinic-pathological features were analyzed. Results: The expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF-C were significantly higher in PC (66.1%, 76.3% respectively) compared with BPH (7.7%, 0 respectively). The expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF-C in neoplastic tissue of patients were closely correlated with the tumor differentiation, clinical stages and the lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Their expressions, however, did not show any correlations to the patient’s age and PSA level (P>0.05). There was a positive correlation between the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF-C in prostatic carcinoma(r=0.261, P<0.05). Conclusion:The synergy of HIF-1α and VEGF-C may play a great role in the genesis and development of prostate tumor. Maybe the over-expression of HIF-1αinduces tumor invasion by activating the transcription of VEGF-C.

    2012, 40 (1):  0-20 . 
    Abstract ( 1035 )   PDF (416KB) ( 1902 )  
    Background: Heme oxygenase-1 is a kind of antioxidative enzyme. A dinucleotide GT repeat in promoter region of Human HO-1 gene shows a length polymorphism that may modulates the level of gene transcription. Therefore this polymorphism phenomenon may associate with the development of essential hypertension. Objective: (1) To investigate the relationship between the length polymorphism of GT repeat in HO-1 promoter area and essential hypertension.(2) To observe if this polymorphism will affect the levels of bilirubin, TNF-? and IL-10 in plasma. (3) To evaluate the effect of the genotypes in the plasma levels of bilirubin, TNF-? and IL-10. Methods: The HO-1 gene GT dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in promoter area was evaluated in 102 EH patients and 134 healthy controls. The genotypes were analyzed by PCR and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Plasma levels of TNF-? and IL-10 were obtained by ELISA methods. Bilirubin levels were measured by automatic chemistry analyzer. Results: (1) The plasma levels of bilirubin, TNF-? and IL-10 in EH group were higher than in control group. (the levels of bilirubin, TNF-? and IL-10 in EH group were 12.53?4.41umol/L; 2.22?0.57ng/ml; 40.87?5.53pg/ml respectively VS control group: 11.46?5.53umol/L; 1.97?0.47ng/ml; 38.17?4.46pg/ml p?0.05 ) (2) The long allele with ≥32 (GT)n repeats (L allele) was found more frequently in hypertension group(26.5% vs 14.6% X2 =10.42, p?0.05). (3) There was no significant difference to be found between the genotypes and the plasma levels of TNF-? and IL-10.The plasma bilirubin levels in the cases carrying with long allele were higher than the cases carrying with short allele. Conclusions: The long allele of HO-1 genotype may be associated with the development of essential hypertension. The levels of bilirubin, TNF-? and IL-10 in plasma may affect the development of EH .

    2012, 40 (1):  0-20 . 
    Abstract ( 1206 )   PDF (306KB) ( 1939 )  
    【Abstract】Objective To investigate the effect of rosiglitazone on the level of serum visfatin and ghrelin in type 2 diabetes patients.Methods 72 patients with type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into control group and rosiglitazone treated group (36 patients in each group). And patients in rosiglitazone treated group were treated with rosiglitazone (4 mg/d) for 16 weeks. Results After treatment for 16 weeks, the levels of blood pressure, blood glucose, triglyceride (TG) and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were significantly reduced in these two groups. And those in rosiglitazone treated group reduced much more compared with the control group. Increased level of HDL-c and serum ghrelin, and reduced level of serum visfatin were observed in rosiglitazone treated group compared with those before treatment. However, there were no significant differences in the level of those characteristics between before and after treatment in the control group. Pearson analysis shows that the level of serum visfatin was positively associated with body mass index (BMI), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and HOMA-IR. And the level of serum ghrelin was negatively associated with BMI, FPG, TG and HOMA-IR. Conclusions Rosiglitazone can result in elevated level of serum ghrelin and reduced level of serum visfatin in patients with type 2 diabetes.And this may be associated with the mechanism of improving insulin resistance.

    2012, 40 (1):  0-20 . 
    Abstract ( 1107 )   PDF (381KB) ( 1867 )  
    Objective To study changes of antibrain-antibody (ABAb)and interleukin-1β in rabbits with traumatic brain injury with drainage of cerebrospinal fluid therapy and to explore the protective effect of this therapy in rabbit—TBI—models established by lateral fluid percussion machine. Methods 32 rabbits were divided into four groups randomly (16 in control group, 16 in CSF drained group). Rabbits in control group were drained CSF and injected into cistern; rabbits in CSF drained group were drained CSF only. 2 groups rabbits were drained CSF 1ml everyday until a week and phlebotomized and tested with ELISA to observe the changes of IL-1βand ABAb at the time points 1 d, 3 d, 7d, 14d, 21d. Results Levels of IL-1βand ABAb in CSF drained group were lower than that in control group(P<0.05). The mortality rate and disability rate of CSF drained group were lower than those of control group, while the cure rate was the higher than that of control group. Conclusion Drainage of cerebrospinal fluid can help to decrease levels of antibrain-antibody and interleukin-1β. Drainage of cerebrospinal fluid therapy has protective effect on immunologic injury after traumatic brain injury.

    Abstract ( 819 )   PDF (331KB) ( 1955 )  
    Abstract :Objective  To investigate the effects of oral spironolactone on expression of TNF-αin the myocardiac tissue of spontaneous hypertension rats during t he progressing stage of hytertension. Methods  Twenty eight 2-weeks- old male spontaneous hypertension rats (SHR) were divided randomly into spironolactone group (SHR-SPIRO , n = 10),and control group (SHR-CON , n = 10) ,sex - age matched Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY group , n = 7) which having normal hypertension were also used as the third group . The spironolactone was solved with distilled water and the animals were weighed once weekly to adjust for drug dosage(20mg/kg.d).Evaluation were performed after 16 weeks of treatment.The rats were anesthetized at 24-week-old with 1g/kg urethane intraperitoneal. The systolic pressure,diastolic pressure, mean arterial blood pressure were deteced by a tube that was pierced into the carotid artery that was connected with physiological function experimental system. The hearts were rapidly isolated and were cut into two parts. The one was fixed in 10% buffered for immunohistochemistry;The other one was throwed quickly into liquid nitrogen . The TNF-αlevels of left ventricular homogenate were deteced by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Results The systelic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure had no differences in the rats between SHR-SPIRO group and SHR-CON group. (SHR-SPIRO: 174.64±19.6;121.65±19.45;148.4±18. 5 vs SHR-CON: 184.19±8.55;136.76±22.06;150.5±24.5 p>0.05).but the artery blood pressure of the two groups are higher than the WKY group. The concentration of TNF-α is higer in myocardiac tissue in the SHR-CON group than WKY group(24.52±3.36 vs 1.53±0.21 p<0.05 ); TNF-α expression decrease significently in SHR-SPIRO group than SHR-CON group(5.9±0.96vs 24.52±3.36 p<0.05 ).Conclusion 1. The levels of myocardial tissue of SHR is higer than the normal hypertension WKY rats;2.Oral spironolactone can decrease concentration of TNF-α of myocardial tissue in hypertension rats.
