Objective Metabolites produced by metabolic imbalance such as free fatty acids and lipopolysaccharides can result in a state of chronic low-grade inflammation, or metabolic inflammation, which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and obesity. The above metabolic disorders are closely related with the metabolic inflammation, which always coexist. Therefore, we proposed the concept ofmetabolic inflammatory syndrome ( MIS). According to our study, patients with two or more metabolic disorders above could be diagnosed as MIS. The current research is aimed to investigate the prevalence of MIS and its components, and to compare the clinical values of MIS and metabolic syndrome ( MS) . Methods 2 001 in patients with type 2 diabetes from 6 hospitals in Shanghai were recruited in the current multi-center cross-sectional study. The diagnostic rates of MIS and MS and their components of both syndromes were compared. Results In the patients with type 2 diabetes, the detective rate of MIS was 96. 2%, which was higher than that of MS (71. 3%). Among 4 components of MIS, atherosclerosis showed the highest detective rate (75.6%). MIS[OR=2.252(95%CI1.026-4.942),P=0.043],atherosclerosis[OR=2.726(95% CI1.953-3. 804),P<0. 001], and MS[OR=1. 915 (95%CI 1. 444-2. 540),P<0. 01] were the risk factors of coronary heart disease. Conclusion With atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and obesity as its 4 components, MIS has a high detective rate in patients with metabolic disorders, and seems to be more sensitive than MS to distinguish inflammation-related metabolic diseases. The concept of MIS will promote the screening and prevention of atherosclerosis in its early stage.

Background and purpose:In in vivo and vitro studies, Rhodiola shows anti-cancer effect, but there were few reports about the effects of Rhodiola on growth of breast cancer and its possible mechanism. Methods:Xenograft of Human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-435 in female BALB/c nude mice were treated with and without Rhodiola extracts. The tumor volume and proliferation index (PCNA and Ki67) of the xenograft were studied.Results:After Rhodiola was given to nude mice for 4 weeks, the mean tumor volume was smaller (99.95mm 3 vs. 174.60mm 3 ) compared to untreated group,but there was no statistical significance(P=0.535). The proportion and intensity of cellular Ki-67 staining in Xenografts were decreased as compared to the untreated group, (average H-score 152.8 vs. 86, P=0.014), the same trend could be found for cellular PCNA staining, but there was no statistical significance(242 vs.210,P=0.221).Conclusions:The mechanism of anti-cancer effect of Rhodiola may be partly through inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells in vivo.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of Zhenju Jiangya Tablet (ZJ) on the injured endothelial cells and endothelium-dependent relaxation function of hyperlipidemia rabbits. METHODS: Male New Zealand rabbits were randomized into four groups: control group, hyperlipidemia group, ZJ group and sivastatin group. The endothelium-dependent relaxation function was evaluated by APV using intravascular Doppler, and the morphology of endothelial cells was detected by light microscopy and electron microscopy, and nitric oxide synthase was evaluated. RESULTS: ZJ reduced the lesions of hyperlipidemia vessels, and the APV after Ach injection of each group was (1.14+/-0.26), (1.74+/-0.59), (1.22+/-0.37) and (1.17+/-0.41) respectively. The eNOS of each group was (4.21+/-0.37), (1.43+/-0.88), (3.95+/-0.67) and (4.08+/-0.46) nmol x min(-1) x g(-1) respectively. CONCLUSION: ZJ can improve the abnormality of endothelial cells and endothelium-dependent relaxation function of hyperlipidemia.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of salvianolate on the migration of endothelial cells induced by monocytes. METHODS: Transwell-boydom system was used to test the migration of endothelial cells induced by monocytes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and RT-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method were used to determine the effect of salvianolate on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and their mRNA of monocytes. RESULTS: The migration of endothelial cells induced by monocytes was facilitated by salvianolate, compared with the control. After the monocytes were treated by salvianolate for 24 hours, the expression of mRNA of VEGF and bFGF was significantly up-regulated, and the expression of VEGF and bFGF was increased. CONCLUSION: The facilitation of salvianolate on the migration of endothelial cells induced by monocytes was observed. Salvianolate stimulates the expression of VEGF and bFGF and their mRNA of monocytes, and salvianolate may have the role of inducing migration of endothelial cells by working on these two factors.

AIM: We observed the expression of KDR/Flk1 in post-myocardiac ischemia(MI) SD rats in order to explain the effect of captopril and its relationship with myocardium angiogenesis after long-term administration.METHODS: The MI model was made by LAD ligation.Captopril was administered for 6 weeks.Immuohistological method and FQ-PCR were used to test the myocardium KDR/Flk-1 expression.RESULTS: In captopril group,no inhibitory effect was observed in myocardium factor VIII expression,but KDR/Flk-1 decreased.The copies of KDR/Flk-1 mRNA reduced dramatically when compared to control group,false-operation and normal group(P0.05).CONCLUSION: ACEI down-regulates KDR/Flk-1 and its mRNA expression in ischemic rat myocardium after long-term administration of captopril,but does not inhibit angiogenesis.So we suspect that some other pathways exist,which can not affect by ACEI,or that ACEI just reduces abnormal angiogenesis.
