Objective To investigate the effect of β1-Adrenoceptor autoantibody on liver function.Methods The biologically active of β1-AA was prepared and passive immunization model was established with β1-AA.The bio-chemical parameters of the liver were measured by the automatic serum biochemical analyzer.The liver size, hepatic vein,portal vein velocity were detected by liver ultrasound;hepatocytes apoptosis were tested by tunel stai-ning,annexin V/PI staining and caspase 3 activity detection.Results The biologically active of β1-AA and passive immunization model were established successfully.The ALT and AST of the liver significantly increased and the ALB decreased in the passive immunization process.The apoptosis of the hepatocytes increased,and meto-prolol partially reversed this effect.Conclusions β1-AA may induce hepatocytes apoptosis by β1-adrenergic receptor and participate in the development of liver injury.

The complement C1q/TNF related protein (CTRP) family is rapidly growing and currently comprises 15 members. Although CTRP proteins share a common structure composed of four distinct domains: a signal peptide at the N terminus, a short variable region, a collagenous domain, and a C-terminal globular domain, which is homologous to adiponectin, each CTRP has a unique tissue expression profile and varied function. In this review we focus on the biochemistry and pleiotropic functions of CTRPs as new molecular mediators regulating cardiovascular metabolic disorders and its related risk factors diseases.

Scrubbing of NO(x) from the gas phase with Fe(II)EDTA has been shown to be highly effective. A new biological method can be used to convert NO to N(2) and regenerate the chelating agent Fe(II)EDTA for continuous NO absorption. The core of this biological regeneration is how to effectively simultaneous reduce Fe(III)EDTA and Fe(II)EDTA-NO, two mainly products in the ferrous chelate absorption solution. The biological reduction rate of Fe(III)EDTA plays a main role for the NO(x) removal efficiency. In this paper, a bacterial strain identified as Klebsiella Trevisan sp. was used to demonstrate an inhibition of Fe(III)EDTA reduction in the presence of Fe(II)EDTA-NO. The competitive inhibition experiments indicted that Fe(II)EDTA-NO inhibited not only the growth rate of the iron-reduction bacterial strain but also the Fe(III)EDTA reduction rate. Cell growth rate and Fe(III)EDTA reduction rate decreased with increasing Fe(II)EDTA-NO concentration in the solution.
