冠心病伴肾动脉狭窄的患病率及相关因素研究

目的探讨冠心病患者中肾动脉狭窄(ARAS)的患病率及其相关因素。方法228例冠脉造影患者同时行选择性双肾动脉造影检查,对临床资料和ARAS之间的关系进行单因素和多因素Logistic回归分析。结果228例患者中,ARAS患病率为19.7%;经冠脉造影证实的152例冠心病患者中,ARAS患病率为27.6%;51例冠心病合并颈动脉粥样斑块的患者中,ARAS患病率为49.0%。45例ARAS患者中,左肾动脉狭窄的患病率显著高于右肾动脉(P<0.05)。单因素分析表明,年龄、糖尿病、肾功能不全、颈动脉粥样斑块、冠心病是ARAS的预测因素。多元Logistic回归分析表明,仅年龄、颈动脉粥样斑块、冠脉三支病变是ARAS的独立预测因素。结论对于冠心病患者,尤其是年龄≥60岁及合并颈动脉粥样斑块的患者,冠脉造影后应常规行肾动脉造影,以便早期发现ARAS。

目的 探讨替比夫定抗病毒治疗过程中慢性乙型肝炎(CHB)患者外周血CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞(Tregs)比例的变化及其临床意义.方法 选取给予替比夫定抗病毒治疗的CHB患者36例,在治疗前及治疗后3、6、9个月时,分别以流式细胞仪检测外周血Tregs比例(以CD4+CD25<'high>T细胞作为Tregs),荧光定量PCR检测血清HBV DNA水平,酶联免疫吸附法检测HBV标志物,全自动生化分析仪检测ALT水平.结果 CHB患者外周血Tregs比例明显高于对照组(P<0.01).替比夫定抗病毒治疗过程中,CHB患者外周血Tregs比例逐步下降,治疗6、9个月时基本恢复正常水平;HBV DNA水平降至检测水平以下的CHB患者(30例)在Tregs比例明显下降的CHB患者中所占比例(7/7,100.0%)高于Tregs比例无明显下降的CHB患者(23/29,79.3%),但两者差异无统计学意义(P>0.05).治疗3、6、9个月时,HBeAg阴转率分别为11.1%、19.4%、25.0%,其中7例(19.4%)发生HBeAg血清学转换者在治疗3、6个月时Tregs比例均已降至正常人水平.结论 替比夫定抗病毒治疗过程中,能降低CHB患者外周血Tregs比例,治疗早期Tregs比例下降的患者HBeAg血清学转换率更高.     

Li-cadherin is Inversely Correlated with Galectin-3 Expression in Gastric Cancer

The aims of this study were to examine the expressions of Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 in gastric cancer, and the correlation between Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 in gastric cancer was also analyzed. The present study investigated the expression level of Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 by immunohistochemistry and semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and correlated this with clinicopathologic parameters in 91 cases of gastric cancer. The correlation between expression levels of Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. The expression level of Li-cadherin mRNA was correlated to differentiation and lymph node metastasis, and the expression level of Galectin-3 was related to TNM staging, differentiation and lymph node metastasis. On Spearman correlation analysis, a definitive negative correlation was found between the expression levels of Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 in gastric cancerous tissues. We postulate that interaction between Li-cadherin and Galectin-3 may play an important role in the development of gastric cancer.

Direct transformation of rodent fibroblasts by jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus DNA

Jaagsiekte sheep retrovirus (JSRV) is the causative agent of ovine pulmonary carcinoma, a unique animal model for human bronchioalveolar carcinoma. We previously isolated a JSRV proviral clone and showed that it was both infectious and oncogenic. Thus JSRV is necessary and sufficient for the development of ovine pulmonary carcinoma, but no data are available on the mechanisms of transformation. Inspection of the JSRV genome reveals standard retroviral genes, but no evidence for a viral oncogene. However, an alternate ORF in pol (orf-x) might be a candidate for a transforming gene. We tested whether the JSRV genome might encode a transforming gene by transfecting an expression plasmid for JSRV [pCMVJS21, driven by the cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early promoter] into mouse NIH 3T3 cells. Foci of transformed cells appeared in the transfected cultures 2-3 weeks posttransfection; cloned transformants showed anchorage independence for growth, and they expressed JSRV RNA. These results indicate that the JRSV genome contains information with direct transforming potential for NIH 3T3 cells. Transfection of a mutated version of pCMVJS21 in which the orf-x protein was terminated by two stop codons also gave transformed foci. Thus, orf-x was eliminated as the candidate transforming gene. In addition, another derivative of pCMVJS21 (pCMVJS21DeltaGP) in which the gag, pol (and orf-x) coding sequences were deleted also gave transformed foci. These results indicate that the envelope gene carries the transforming potential. This is an unusual example of a native retroviral structural protein with transformation potential.

Polyamines mediate androgenic stimulation of calcium fluxes and membrane transport in rat heart myocytes

The androgenic steroid hormone testosterone induced an early (less than 30-60 seconds) stimulation of endocytosis, hexose transport, and amino acid transport, monitored by the temperature-sensitive uptake of horseradish peroxidase, 2-deoxyglucose, and alpha-aminoisobutyrate, respectively, in rat ventricle cubes and acutely isolated ventricular myocytes. This stimulation was time- and concentration-dependent and was maximal at 10(-9) to 10(-8) M testosterone, consistent with androgen-receptor mediation. EGTA (2.5 mM), La3+ (1 mM), and verapamil (100 microM) ablated the hormonal response. The calcium ionophore A23187 (10 microM) induced an acute stimulation of endocytosis, amino acid transport, and hexose transport which was not further increased by testosterone (10(-8) M), suggesting a common effector pathway. Testosterone (10(-8) M) also evoked a rapid (less than 30 seconds) stimulation of 45Ca influx and efflux. Testosterone (10(-8) M) induced a rapid (less than 5 seconds) transient increase in ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity peaking (twofold to threefold) at 60 seconds, and an early (15 seconds) transient accumulation of polyamines peaking at 60 seconds in isolated myocytes. The specific, irreversible ODC inhibitor alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO, 5-10 mM) blocked the testosterone-evoked increase in ODC activity and polyamine levels and the stimulation of Ca2+ fluxes, endocytosis, hexose transport, and amino acid transport. Putrescine (0.5-1 mM), the ODC product, reversed DFMO inhibition and restored the increase in polyamines, 45Ca fluxes, and Ca2+-dependent membrane transport processes. These results demonstrate that rapid, transient ODC-regulated polyamine synthesis is essential for androgenic stimulation of Ca2+ fluxes and membrane transport processes in ventricular myocytes. These findings support a model for signal transduction in which newly synthesized polyamines serve as intracellular messengers to regulate transmembrane Ca2+ movements, Ca2+-dependent membrane transport functions, and other Ca2+- and polyamine-sensitive processes in cardiac myocytes.
