ABSTRACT
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common type of childhood myocardial disease in the clinic.It is mainly characterized by left ventricular or biventricular enlargement and myocardial contractile dysfunction,often accompanied by various arrhythmias.DCM is insidious and has a high rate of sudden death.At present,there is no alternative option to heart transplantation,thus DCM seriously threatens the life and health of children.With the rapid development of bioinformatics,second-generation sequencing and data mining are widely used in DCM diagnosis and treatment.Many sarcomere gene mutations such as MYH7,TNNT2,TTN,have attracted wide attention during the development of DCM.In this paper,the research results of sarcomere gene mutation and DCM in recent years are summarized,and the function of the corresponding gene and its effect on the heart are discussed.This review describes the specific mechanism of DCM gene mutation leading to DCM,which provides a reference for future DCM precision medicine.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical effect of the Bushen-Qiangjin capsule and calcium D in the treatment of aromatase inhibitors-associated bone loss (AIBL) in breast cancer patients. Methods A total of 65 patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 32 in the control group taking calcium D, and 33 in the treatment group taking calcium D and Bushen-Qiangjin capsule. After a 3-month treatment, the bone mineral density T (BMD), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), bone gla protein (BGP) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TrACP) of two groups were evaluated. Results The BMD increased significantly after treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and the therapeutic efficacy of the treatment group was better than of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the level of BALP (308.76 ± 10.99 U/L vs. 280.00 ± 7.44 U/L, t=8.170) and the BGP (42.21 ± 3.04 ng/ml vs. 34.38 ± 2.06 ng/ml, t=6.818) of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.01). The level of TrACP decreased significantly after treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and the TrACP (60.12 ± 4.58 U/L vs. 67.25±4.06 U/L, t=1.653) of treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The Bushen-Qiangjin capsule can produce a content efficacy in treating AIBL in breast cancer patients, improving the BMD and bone metabolism.
ABSTRACT
Background and purpose:Chemotherapy is an alternative treatment option, which could still get a therapeutic effect, when the EGFR-TKI treatment of non-small cell lung cancer failed. Studies have shown that RR, TYMS, ERCC1 and TUBB3 have respectively relationship with chemosensitivity of gemcitabine, pemetrexed, platinum-based drugs and microtubule-based chemotherapy drugs.The expression levels of these molecular markers can predict the sensitivity of these chemotherapy drugs. The patients with RRMI, TS, ERCC1 and TUBB3 higher expression have reduced chemosensitivity, and lower expression have increased sensitivity. The purpose of this study was to explore the sensitivity of tumor cell lines with acquired resistance to geiftinib caused byEGFR-T790M mutation to cisplatin, gemcitabine, pemetrexed, vinorelbine, paclitaxel and docetaxel.Methods:MTT assay was used to detect the IC50 values of cisplatin, gemcitabine, vinorelbine, paclitaxel and docetaxel, pemetrexed to PC9 and PC9/GR cells, and to explore the chemosensitivity of lung adenocarcinoma cells to these chemotherapy drugs; Luminex method was used respectively to detect the expression levels of ERCC1 mRNA, TUBB3 mRNA, TS mRNA, and RRM1 mRNA in PC9 and PC9/GR cells. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of ERCC1, TUBB3, TS and RRM1 in PC9 and PC9/GR cells.Results: The IC50 values of cisplatin, gemcitabine and pemetrexed to PC9/GR cells were signiifcantly higher than those to PC9 cells (P<0.05), while the IC50 values of vinorelbine, paclitaxe and docetaxel to PC9/GR cells were signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Luminex method showed the expressions of ERCC1 mRNA, TS mRNA and RRM1 mRNA in PC9/GR cells were signiifcantly increased than those in PC9 cells (P<0.05), while the expression of TUBB3 mRNA was signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Western blot method showed the expressions of TUBB3, TS and RRM1 protein in PC9/GR cells were signiifcantly increased than those in PC9 cells (P<0.05), while TUBB3 protein expression in PC9/GR cells was signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Western blot method analysis result showed that the expressions of TUBB3, TS and RRM1 protein in PC9/GR cells were significantly increased than those in PC9 cells (P<0.05), while TUBB3 protein expression in PC9/GR cells was signiifcantly decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion:The chemosensitivity of lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR-T790M mutation is changed. It has decreased sensitivity to cisplatin, gemcitabine, pemetrexed and increased sensitivity to vinorelbine, paclitaxel and docetaxel. The reason of the change of chemosensitivity of geiftinib-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cell maybe related to the changes of ERCC1 mRNA, RRM1 mRNA and TS mRNA and their protein expressions.
ABSTRACT
[Objective] To observe the sera immunoglobulin E(IgE) and Complement C3(C3)level changes in patients with chronic urticaria.[Methods] To detect sera IgE and Complement C3 content of 60 cases of chronic urticaria patients and 60 cases of healthy persons by chemiluminescence and Immunity Transmission Turbidity.At the same time,we tested sera IgE and Complement C3 content of both penetration needling and drug groups before and after treatment of 60 cases,and anaylysed the correlation of IgE and Complement C3.[Results]Higher level of sera IgE was detected in patients with chronic urticaria(P 0.05);the correlation of IgE and Complement C3 was negative in both groups.[Conclusions]Detecting Sera IgE and Complement C3 level have reference value in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic urticaria.
