Analysis of the expression of soluble receptor for advanced glycation end product and its influencing factors in patients with acute cerebral infarction / 中国脑血管病杂志

Objective Toinvestigatethecorrelationsofthelevelsofplasmasolublereceptorfor advanced glycation end product (sRAGE )with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS ), grade of white matter lesions,and risk factors for cerebral vascular disease in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods Atotalof120patientswithacutecerebralinfarctionwereenrolledretrospectively. They all underwent head MRI. The plasma sRAGE levels of the acute cerebral infarction group and 120 healthy subjects were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)and were compared. According to the interquartile range (P25 =540 ng/L,P50 =1030 ng/L,P75 =1400 ng/L ),the plasma sRAGE levels were divided into 4 quartiles (Q1 to Q4). Q1:sRAGE1400 ng/L (n =30 ). The plasma sRAGE levels in the acute cerebral infarction group and the healthy control group were compared using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the correlations of the sRAGE levels with NIHSS scores,grade of cerebral white matter lesions,and cerebrovascular risk factors. Results (1 )The median level of plasma sRAGE was 870 (540.0,1403. 8)ng/L in the acute cerebral infarction group,which was lower than 1032 (727. 5,1721. 5) ng/L in the healthy control group. There was significant difference (P<0. 05). (2)Single factor analysis showed that the smoking rate,NIHSS scores,the types of deep white matter hyperintensity (DWMH),and the estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)among Q1,Q2,Q3 and Q4 quartiles were significant different (all P<0.05). The smoking rate,ratio of patients with high NIHSS score,incidence of severe DWMH and percentage of the patients with normal eGFR in Q1 (n=29)were 62. 1%(n=18), 44. 8%(n=13),55.2%(n=16)and 51. 7%(n=15),respectively,and they had a higher trend than other quartiles. (3)Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the smoking,NIHSS score,eGFR,and severity of DWMH were the influence factors of the levels of plasma sRAGE in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Thereweresignificantdifferences(allP<0.05).Conclusion Theexpressionlevelsofthe plasma sRAGE in patients with acute cerebral infarction group is significantly lower than those in the healthy subjects,and smoking,neurological defect,eGFR,and severity of DWMH are associated the low level of sRAGE. sRAGE may be used as a reference index for predicting the conditions of acute cerebral infarction.

High-frequency stimulation of anterior nucleus thalamus improves impaired cognitive function induced by intra-hippocampal injection of Aβ1-40 in rats / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The advent of brain stimulation techniques to treat movement disorders and psychiatric diseases has shown potential to decode the neural mechanism that underlies the cognitive process by modulating the interrupted circuit. Here, the present investigation aimed at evaluating the influence of deep brain stimulation of the anterior nucleus thalamus (ANT-DBS) on memory.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-two rats were randomized into phosphate buffer saline (PBS) group (n = 8, rats received PBS injections without implantation of electrodes into the ANT), Alzheimer's dementia (AD) group (n = 8, rats received Aβ1-40 injections without implantation of electrodes into the ANT), ANT sham stimulation group (n = 8, rats received Aβ1-40 injections with implantation of electrodes into the ANT but without stimulation) and ANT stimulation group (n = 8, rats received Aβ1-40 injections with implantation of electrodes into the ANT and stimulation). A Morris maze test was used for determining the effect of electrical stimulation on cognitive function in rats. The data were assessed statistically with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey's tests for multiple post hoc comparisons.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The data showed that in the training test, PBS group and AD group managed to learn the hidden-platform faster and faster while AD group needed a significantly longer time to reach the platform than PBS group (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, ANT stimulation group demonstrated a significantly shorter time to reach the platform (P < 0.05) compared to the AD group, while there was no significant difference between the ANT sham stimulation group and the AD group (P > 0.05). On the probe test, the AD group spent less time ((10.15 ± 2.34) seconds) in the target quadrant than the PBS group ((28.20 ± 2.75) seconds) (P < 0.05). And the times of platform-traversing of the AD group (3.35 ± 1.12) significantly decreased compared with the PBS group (8.69 ± 2.87) (P < 0.05). However, the times of platform-traversing and the time spent in the target quadrant of the ANT stimulation group significantly increased compared to the AD group (P < 0.05), while times of platform-traversing or the time spent in the target quadrant was not significantly different between the ANT sham stimulation group and the AD group (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Bilateral high-frequency stimulation of the ANT may be useful as a potential therapeutic modality for cognitive dysfunction in AD.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the expression level of folate receptor α (FR-α) in glioma tissue and its clinical significance.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Forty-eight human glioma specimens were collected from patients who underwent surgery from March 2012 to March 2013. These specimens were as follows:12 cases of glioblastoma (WHO IV), 6 cases of astrocytoma of each malignancy grade(WHO II, III), 6 cases of oligodendroastrocytoma of each malignancy grade (WHO II, III), 6 cases of oligodendroglioma of each malignancy grade (WHO II, III ). In addition, 6 cases of normal brain tissue resected from brain traumatic patients were taken as negative control, and one case of placental tissue (had got the consent of the parents and their families) was taken as positive control. The expression level of FR-α in tumor tissues was evaluated by Western blot analysis. The results of Western blot analysis were analyzed by t-test. The expression level of FR-α and Ki-67 in tumor tissues was evaluated immunohistochemistry, the results were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Nemenyi test. The correlation between the expression level of FR-α and cell proliferation index Ki-67 was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Western blot analysis showed that the FR-α was not expressed in normal brain tissue and oligodendroglioma tissue, but highly expressed in astrocytoma, oligodendroastrocytoma and gliomablastoma. The expression level in WHO III astrocytoma was significantly higher than in WHO II (t = 4.497, P < 0.05). FR-α was also highly expressed in oligodendroastrocytoma and its expression level in WHO III was also significantly higher than in the WHO II (t = 2.876, P < 0.05). Foremore, immunohistochemistry analysis also showed that FR-α was not expressed in oligodendroglioma, but expressed in astrocytoma, oligodendroastrocytoma and gliomablastoma. The positive rate of FR-α of WHO III was significantly higher than the WHO II astrocytoma(57.8% ± 2.2% vs. 45.7% ± 2.3%,χ(2) = 3.871, P = 0.034). In oligodendroastrocytoma, the positive rate of FR-α of WHO III was significantly higher than the WHO II(56.5% ± 5.4% vs. 37.1% ± 5.2%,χ(2) = 4.454, P = 0.021). Moreover, the expression level of FR-α in gliomablastoma was highest in all histological types of gliomas, the positive rate of FR-α was up to 65.0% ± 4.5%. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the positive rate of FR-α was positively correlated with Ki-67 index (r = 0.903, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>FR-α is expressed in astrocytoma, oligodendroastrocytoma and glioblastoma, and the expression level of FR-α is positively correlated with malignancy grade and Ki-67 index.

Objective To observe the effect of stageⅢdiabetic nephropathy(DN)treated by Qizhi Jiangtang capsule and explore its potential mechanism. Methods According to digital table method,the patients who conformed to the diagnostic criteria of stageⅢDN were randomly divided into two groups:an experiment group and a control group. All the patients in the two groups took elution treatment for 2 weeks,and then were treated with western basic therapy. The patients in the experiment group were administered orally with Qizhi Jiangtang capsule(2.5 g once, 3 times a day),while those in the control group treated with valsartan 80 mg,once a day. Urine microalbumin(mALB), mALB/urine creatinine(UCr),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),α1-microglobulin(α1-MG)were observed in the two groups,endothelin-1(ET-1),nitric oxide(NO),thromboxane B2(TXB2),6-keto prostaglandin F1α(6-keto-PGF1α) were also determined. Serum creatinine(SCr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum cystatin-C(Cys-C),retinol-binding protein(RBP),β2-MG were detected in the blood biochemistry automatic analyzer. These laboratory markers were inspected before treatment and at the 4th,8th and 12th week after treatment. Results Ninety-six patients in the experiment group and 95 patients in the control group were effectively included in the end. Before treatment,there were no statistic significant differences in urine mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and blood ET-1,NO,TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α between two groups(all P>0.05). Along with the prolongation of treatment,urine mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and ET-1,TXB2 were significantly reduced,while NO,6-keto-PGF1α were significantly raised in the two groups after treatment,and the above changes in the experimental group were more obvious. There were statistic significant differences of mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and TXB2,6-keto-PGF1αbetween two groups at the 12th week after treatment〔mALB(mg/L):36.6±9.2 vs. 78.6±16.5,mALB/UCr(mg/mmol):3.90±1.97 vs. 9.70±2.90,β2-MG(mg/L):0.25±0.10 vs. 0.40±0.12,α1-MG(mg/L):8.40±2.26 vs. 12.50±3.21,TXB2 (ng/L):75.8±18.7 vs. 94.7±21.7,6-keto-PGF1α(ng/L):73.4±15.2 vs. 65.2±11.5,P0.05〕. In each of the two groups,the comparisons of the levels of SCr,BUN before and after treatment,there was no statistical significant difference at any time point;the same comparisons between the two groups,there was also no statistic significant difference before treatment and at each of the same time-point after treatment(all P>0.05). The levels of Cys-C,RBP andβ2-MG of the control group after treatment had the tendency of decreasing,but no statistic significant differences were found(all P>0.05). The levels of Cys-C,RBP,β2-MG of the experimental group at the 12th week after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment〔Cys-C(mg/L):0.72±0.07 vs. 0.89±0.12,RBP (mg/L):53.0±14.2 vs. 66.1±16.5,β2-MG(mg/L):1.86±0.71 vs. 2.79±0.82,all P<0.05〕. Conclusions Qizhi Jiangtang capsule can significantly reduce the levels of urine mALB and mALB/UCr of patients with stageⅢDN and stabilize their renal functions;its therapeutic effect is better then that of valsartan. Its mechanisms are related to the reduction of ET-1,elevation of NO,maintenance of dynamic equilibrium of thromboxane A2/prostacycline(TXA2/PGI2) and protection of vascular endothelial cells.

BACKGROUND: Both animal experiments and clinical practice have confirmed that mild or moderate hypothermia is effective in reducing secondary brain injury, but its effect on homeostasis is not very clear.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of a combined therapy of mild hypothermia and hibernation on the homeostasis of patients with severe brain injury.DESIGN: A randomized controlled study.SETTING: Neurosurgical Institute of Beijing; Neurosurgical Department of the First Clinical Medical College Affiliated to Harbin Medical University;and Neurological Department of the Second Clinical Medical College Affiliated to Harbin Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: The study was conducted at the Department of Neurosurgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, from June to December 2002. Totally 24 patients (aged 35-60 years) with severe cerebral hemorrhage or brain injury were randomly divided into combined therapy group and normothermia group. Their Glasgow Coma Scale scores ranged from 3 to 8. The subjects signed the informed consent.METHODS: Within 10 hours of their injury, patients in hypothermia and hibernation combination group were given half dosage of No. 1 hibernation cocktail (chlorpromazine 25 mg, pethidine hydrochloride 50 mg, and promethazine 25 mg), and were cooled by cooling blankets to make their body temperature dropped to 32-34 ℃ (rectal temperature). Their temperature was kept within this range for 5 days, at 35 ℃ for 24 hours, and then was slowly increased to their normal level. The body temperature of patients in normothermia group was maintained at 37-38 ℃. The mean arterial pressure and heart rate of all patients were measured continuously by HP monitor. On the 3"d and 7th days of hospitalization, intracranial pressure and creatine phosphate kinase were measured via lumbar puncture.Femoral artery puncture was performed to check the partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2. Platelets count and blood electrolytes K+ and Na+ concentration of each patient were measured, too. On the 7th day Glasgow Outcome Scale scores of each patient and mortality of each group were recorded.activity of creatine phosphokinase, platelets count, blood K+ and Na+ conand CO2 of patients in combined therapy group on the 3rd and 7th days of hospitalization.intracranial pressure, creatine phosphokinase and platelets count: The decreased values of intracranial pressure, creatine phosphokinase and platelet number in combined therapy group were all significantly higher than those in normothermia group [(104.09±54.90), (58.75±25.33) mm H2O; (26.95±19.22), (10.17±7.18) μkat/L; (89.82±46.36)×109/L, (48.83±44.59)×109/L,the mean arterial pressure, blood electrolytes, and partial pressure of artewas significantly lower than that of normothermia group (25.0%, 66.6%,P ＜0.05).CONCLUSION: This combined therapy of hypothermia and hibernation can effectively decrease intracranial pressure and creatine phosphokinase,but has no significant effects on the mean arterial pressure, blood electrolytes concentration, and partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2. It has the risk of disturbing the patients' hematopoiesis.
