Aim To investigate the effect of terpinen-4-ol (T40) on inflammatory injury of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by high glucose based on the improvement of autophagic flow disorder and involved molecular signals. Methods The scratch test was used to analyze the migration ability of VSMCs, the levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in cell culture supernatant were measured by ELISA, the expression levels of inflammation-related proteins NF-κb p65, p-NF-κb p65, IL-1β, IL-18 and autophagy-related proteins p62, LC3-HYLC3-I, Beclinl, p-Beclinl were de-tected by Western blot. Results T40 inhibited migration of VSMCs induced by high glucose, reduced the secretion and release of pro-inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-6, inhibited the expression of p-NF-κb p65/ NF-κb p65, IL-1β, IL-18, downregulated the expression of p62, LC3-TJ/LC3- I and p-Beclinl at same time. After interfering the autophagic flux of VSMCs with autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) , T40 pre-treatment significantly inhibited the protein expression levels of the above inflammatory factors and autophagy-related signals which mediated by CQ. Conclusion T40 inhibits the inflammatory injury of VSMCs induced by high glucose through improving the autophagic flow disorder.

The aim of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of terpinen-4-ol (T4O) on high glucose (HG) -induced calcification in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC). To investigate the role of T4O on HG-induced calcium deposition, osteogenic phenotypic transformation and mitochondrial dynamics in VSMC, Mdivi-1, a mitochondrial dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp-1) inhibitor, was used to analyze the correlation between mitochondrial dynamics and VSMC calcification and the role of T4O. Alizarin red S staining was used to observe calcium salt deposition and flow cytometry to detect intracellular Ca2+ content; Western blot and immunofluorescence were used to detect the expression of phenotypic switching-related markers α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) and Runt related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and mitochondrial dynamics-related markers mitofusin 1 (MFN1), mitofusin 2 (MFN2) and Drp-1. The results showed that low and high doses of T4O could inhibit HG-induced down-regulation of α-SMA, MFN1 and MFN2 expression levels, and up-regulation of BMP2, Runx2 and Drp-1 expression levels, reduce intracellular Ca2+ content and calcium salt deposition, and effectively inhibit HG-induced VSMC calcification and mitochondrial dynamics disorders. The T4O group, Mdivi-1 group and T4O+Mdivi-1 group were able to up-regulate the expression levels of HG-induced α-SMA, MFN1 and MFN2, down-regulate the protein expression levels of BMP2, Runx2 and Drp-1, and inhibit calcium salt deposition, and there was no significant difference between the above indexes in the T4O and T4O+Mdivi-1 groups. The above findings suggest that T4O can inhibit the expression level of Drp-1, regulate the disturbance of mitochondrial dynamics, and suppress HG-induced VSMC calcification.

Aim To investigate the effect and mechanism of salidroside (SAL) on homocysteine (Hcy)-induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) based on the KLF4/eNOS signaling pathway. Methods (1) Salidroside inhibited Hcy-induced EndMT. HUVECs were pretreated with different concentrations of SAL for 2 h, then followed by Hcy (1 mmol · L-l) co-incubation for 48 hours to induce EndMT. The expression levels of VE-cadherin, α-SMA, KLF4 and eNOS were detected by Western blot, scratch repair experiment was used to determin cell migration ability, the level of NO in cells was determined by nitrate reductase method, and the expression and location of KLF4 were observed by immunofluorescence technology. (2) The signal mechanism of SAL inhibiting End-MT through KLF4/eNOS signal was studied. siRNA mediated knockdown of KLF4 in HUVECs, and the protein expression levels of VE-cadherin, α-SMA, KLF4 and eNOS in each group were determined by Western blot. Results Western blotting demonstrated that SAL significantly reversed the Hcy-induced increase in α-SMA and KLF4 expression and decrease in VE-cadherin and eNOS expression. The immunofluorescence analysis suggested that SAL inhibited the translocation of KLF4 from cytoplasm to nucleus. (2) Silencing KLF4 down-regulated the expression of α-SMA and KLF4, and up-regulated the expression of VE-cadherin and eNOS. Compared with the group of SAL + siKLF4, there was no significant difference in the effect of SAL group and siKLF4 group on phenotypic markers. Conclusions Salidroside inhibits EndMT induced by Hcy, which may be related to the regulation of KLF4/eNOS signaling pathway.

Objective To study the aging-related lifestyle and behaviors associated with the middle-aged and elderly so as to propose anti-aging strategies. Methods The aging degree of the elderly was measured by PPSHAS scale, which was certified by the national society. At the same time, the anti-aging factors were studied by questionnaire and logistic model. Results There were 836 effective PPSHAS scales and anti-aging questionnaires, 471 of which were significantly younger or older. Mann-Whitney U test showed that there was no significant difference in satiety and smoking between the two groups (Psatiety=0.295, Psmoking=0.294). By incorporating meaningful factors into logistic model, seven related anti-aging factors, such as dressing, drinking frequency and tea drinking habits, were obtained. Conclusions Aging can be delayed by paying attention to dressing, limiting alcohol, getting enough sleep, strengthening exercise, maintaining a harmonious family atmosphere, and drinking tea regularly.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the protective effect of Huaxia shallot preparation on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) injury induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) in vitro. METHODS: Ox-LDL was prepared and identified, and HUVECs were cultured. After 2-hour intervention of different drugs and 24-hour following intervention of Ox-LDL, the number of HUVECs was observed by phase contrast optical microscope and the activity of the HUVECs was observed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) technique. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and nitric oxide (NO) content were assayed by respective kit. The protein expressions and mRNA levels of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor gamma(PPAR-gamma) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were measured by western blot technique and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: Ox-LDL could increase the apoptosis rate of the HUVECs and decrease the NO release as compared with the blank control group (P<0.05). These effects induced by Ox-LDL were all significantly inhibited by Huaxia shallot preparation. It could up-regulate the protein expressions and mRNA levels of PPAR-gamma and eNOS significantly (P<0.05). Huaxia shallot preparation could decrease the apoptosis rate of the HUVECs. CONCLUSION: Ox-LDL may be involved in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis by injuring the endothelial cells directly and may cause the endothelial dysfunction. Huaxia shallot preparation can protect against Ox-LDL induced endothelial cell injury by up-regulating the protein expressions and mRNA levels of PPAR-gamma and eNOS. It suggests that Huaxia shallot preparation may play a role in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effects of Xinlikang (XLK) on angiotensin II (Ang II) induced hypertrophic cultured neonatal rat's cardiomyocyte (CMC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Primary cultured neonatal rat's CMCs with the purity certified by immunohistochemical technique, were divided into three groups. Rats in the normal control group were untreated; those in the model group were established into hypertrophic models but underwent no treatment; and those in the XLK group were established to hypertrophic models and treated with XLK containing serum obtained from rats with aorta coarctation after 8 days of feeding with XLK. MTT and phase-contrast microscope were used to evaluate the effect of XLK on cell activity, pulsating rhythm and surface area; Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) expression was determined by radioimmunoassay; Protein content was determined by Bradford method; and DNA synthesis was detected by flow cytometric assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Immunohistochemistry results showed that more than 90% of the cells were alpha-sarcometin actin stained positive cells. No significant effect of XLK on normal CMC was found. Ang II could significantly induce hypertrophy in CMCs, and XLK could significantly decrease the increased surface area and the accelerated pulsating rate in them. ANP expression was 780 +/- 38 microg/L in the model group, and 430 +/- 23 microg/L in the control group, and the elevated expression of ANP in model rats was significantly decreased in the XLK group; The DNA content in the G0/G1 and G2/M phases was significantly enhanced and at the same time it was accompanied with increase of total protein content in the model rats after being stimulated by Ang II for 24 h, showing that serum-containing XLK could also significantly suppress total protein synthesis (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>XLK could improve Ang II mediated pathological growth of CMCs without influencing the growth of normal CMCs, suggesting that XLK is probably an effective drug for treatment of myocardial hypertrophy and heart failure.</p>

BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferation-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) is the member of nuclear receptor superfamily, and closely related with the formation of atherosclerosis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between PPARγ C161→T gene polymorphism and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAHD).DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Tonai Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology; Department of Cardiology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University; Center for Human Genome Research,Huazhong University of Science and Technology; Department of Internal Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Hubei University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; Institute of Geriatrics, Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine PARTICIPANTS: Totally 203 CAHD patients aged (65±11) years, including 129 males and 74 females, were the inpatients and outpatients of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University and Tonai Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from June 2002 to December 2005.And 156 cases of them were diagnosed by coronary arteriongraphy, among which 43 patients without coronary artery affection or with coronary stricture < 50%, and 113 patients with coronary stricture > 50 %. While 89 healthy physical examinees of Han race and mean (59±9) years old were enrolled as control group, including 56 males and 33 females. There was no blood relationship between controls and patients.METHODS: The experiment was conducted at Tongji Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from June 2002 to December 2005. PPARγ C161→T gene polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction endonuclease fragment length polymorphisms. The radio-immunity technique, coronary angiography and clinical routine biochemical index were applied to analyze the genotypic frequency and allele frequency distributions as well as the relation between clinical data, biochemical index and different genotypes. The risk factors of CAHD were estimated in the patients of different genotypes.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The genotypic frequency and allele frequency distributions, the relation between clinical data, biochemical index and different genotypes, along with the blood lipid, blood glucose, fasting insulin and body mass index (BMI).RESULTS: Totally 103 CAHD patients and 89 controls were involved in the result analysis of gene polymorphism and yielded different gene distribution frequencies.① In control group, "T" allele frequency was 0.213 and "C" allele frequency was 0.787, and in CAHD group, "T" allele frequency was 0.192 and "C" allele frequency was 0.808. There was no significant difference in the genotypic frequency and C, T allele frequencies between two groups (P > 0.05).② The CC genotype was dominant in CAHD patients with coronary artery lesions, and showed significant differences from "T"allele carriers (CT+TT) (P < 0.05). The CAHD risk in the "T" allele carries (OR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.24-0.63) was much lower than that in the CC homozygote (OR: 1.92, 95% CI: 1.09-2.54).③ Apolipoprotein B in patients with CC genotype was obviously higher than that in patients with "T" allele (CT+TT) (P < 0.05), and there was insignificant difference in the insulin resistance index (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: There is an important correlation between the substitution of PPARγ C161→T and CAHD, and "T" allele carriers demonstrate a lower risk of CAHD.
