ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the protein expression changes of retina in diabetic mice using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) approach and to study proteins of apoptosis.Methods 8 diabetic mice were chosen as the diabetic model group (DM group),8diabetic mice as the normal control group.The animals were housed in wire-bottomed cages and received normal pellet chow and tap water in a constant environment.After 10 weeks,all mice were killed,and their retina were dissected.After hematoxylin and eosin(H&E) staining,the sections of retina were examined using light microscopy.The changes of protein expression in retina were studied using iTRAQ approach.Expression of apoptosis associated proteins was analyzed using ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA).Results Compared with control group,mice retina in DM group developed looser structures,tissue edema and obvious telangiectasia under light microscopy.Using iTRAQ approach,a total of 348 differential proteins were identified.Among those proteins,16 proteins were related with apoptosis,including Ataxin-10,Protein NDRG1,mucin-4,Aquaporin-1 and annexin A4,etc.There were 8 apoptosis-related proteins in retina with up-regulation,and the other 8 proteins with down-regulation in the DM group.The relationship between these proteins were analyzed and charted by IPA.Conclusions Apoptosis may be involved in the development of diabetic retinopathy.The identification of the apoptosis-related proteins will be helpful for the further study.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of phlorizin on aorta of diabetes db/db mice and to explore its mechanism.Methods Sixteen diabetes db/db mice were randomized into two groups:untreated diabetic group (DM group) and diabetic group treated by phlorizin(DMT group) with eight db/m mice as normal control group(CC group).Phlorizin (20 mg/kg) was given in normal saline solution intragastrically to the mice of the DMT group for 10 weeks.Mice of the other two groups were given the same amount of saline solution intragastrically for 10 weeks.Animals were weighed weekly.At 10th weekend,all mice were fasted overnight and then sacrificed.Fasting blood was collected,and aortas were dissected.The blood samples were analyzed for fasting blood glucose (FBG),triglycerides (TG),total cholesterol (TC),Serum advanced glycation end products(AGEs)and malondialdehyde (MDA).Aortic tissue were examined microscopically.Results At 10th weekend,the weight (57.53±3.40)g and serum concentration of FBG(31.21±2.16) mmol/L,TG (0.39±0.12) mmol/L,TC(3.15±0.30)mmol/L,AGEs (0.28±0.04) AU/mg and MDA (15.18± 1.60)mol/L in DM group were increased than those in CC group (P<0.01),and the weight(54.24± 1.28)g,FBG(29.17±1.41) mmol/L,TG(0.26±0.06) mmol/L,TC(2.71±0.26) mmol/L,AGEs (0.24±0.03) AU/mg and MDA(13.46±1.28)mol/L were lowered significantly in DMT group than those in DM group (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The severity of aorta damage in DMT group was less than that in DM group.Conclusions Phlorizin can protect the db/db mice from diabetic macrovascular complications,which may be attributed to its decreasing of blood glucose,TG,TC,and AGEs levels,and its antioxidant potential.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of grape seed proanthocyanidin extracts (GSPE) on advanced glycation end product receptor (RAGE),NF-Κb and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in the myoeardium of diabetic rats.MethodsTotal 30 streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:diabetic group (DM1,n-15) and GSPE (250 mg/ kg,i.g) treated diabetic group (DM2,n= 15).Another two control groups:normal rats(C1,n= 10)and normal rats treated with GSPE (250 mg/kg,i.g) (C2 group,n= 10) were also observed.After 24 weeks,blood was collected to measure fasting plasma glucose (FBG) and RAGE.The protein expression of NF-Κb was determined in myocardial tissue by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.The protein expressions of RAGE and CTGF were measured by Western blot.Results The levels of FBG and RAGE were significantly higher in diabetic rats than in control rats (P<0.05).After GSPE treatment,RAGE level significantly reduced (P<0.05),but FBG had no change in diabetic rats.The protein expressions of RAGE,NF-Κb and CTGF in the myocardial tissue of diabetic rats had marked increase compared with control rats (P< 0.05),however,their levels significantly reduced after GSPE treatment (P<0.05).ConclusionsGSPE may protect diabetic rats against cardiomyopathy,possibly by decreasing the protein expressions of RAGE,NF-Κb and CTGF.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe therapeutic effects of acupoint catgut embedding therapy on ulcerative colitis.Methods 55 cases of ulcerative colitis were randomly recruited into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was treated with catgut embedding, and the control group was treated with oral administration of salicylazosul fapyridine. Results The therapeutic effect of the treatment group was better than those of the control group (P=0.002<0.05). Conclusion Acupoint catgut embedding therapy has a better therapeutic effect on ulcerative colitis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of microminiature water halloon combined with misoprostol per rectum for delivery of full-term pregnancy. Methods 305 full-term pregnant women with planned delivery were divided into three groups at random.The observation group (n=99) was given microminiature water balloon combined with misoprostol per rectum.The first control group (n=96) was only given misoprostol per rectum. The second control group (n=110) was given 0.5% oxytocin in a continuous infusion.Their results were taken a com-parative study,including the cervical ripening,dilivery process,delivery ways and the condition of the newbom. Results The observation group was better than other groups for cervical ripening(P<0.00).Tune from induction to the onset of regular contraction activity of the uterus in the observation group was significantly shorter than other groups (P<0.00).The rates of cesarean section and the total stage of lahor between the observation and the first control group were not statistically significant(P>0.05),but they were significantly different from the second con-trol group.There were no significant differences among the groups in neonatal asphyxia and amount of postpartum blood loss. Conclusions The efficiency of microminiature water balloon combined with misoprostol per rectum for delivery of full-tarm pregnancy was better than other groups.It has a short delivery process and shows no side effects on both mother and fetus,which is worthy of popularizing in obstetrics.

ABSTRACT

Aim To study the protective effects of sodium magnesium fructose diphosphate (FDPM) on the kidney in hemorrhagic shock rats. Methods The study utilized Wiggers hemorrhagic shock model. Sixty Wistar rats were divided into six groups randomly: normal saline control group,three doses of FDPM group (90.0,45.0,22.5 mg?kg -1 ),1,6-fructose diphosphate group(37.5 mg?kg -1 ) and magnesium sulfate group (3.4 mg?kg -1 ). Mean arterial pressure was monitored before shock, 10, 30 and 60 minuts after drug administration and 0, 30 and 60 minuts after shed blood reinfusion Blood urea nitrogen and creatinine, the content of malondiadehyde, and the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase, Ca 2+ -ATPase, Mg 2+ -ATPase, and superoxide dismutase in kidney were also measured. Results FDPM significantly improved mean arterial blood pressure of hemorrhagic shock rats, reduced blood urea nitrogen and creatinine, decreased the content of malondiadehyde and increased the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase,Ca 2+ -ATPase,Mg 2+ -ATPase and superoxide dismutase in kidney. Conclusion FDPM had protective effects on the ischemia-hypoxia injury of kidney by improving energy metabolism and attenuating tissue injury caused by free radicals in hemorrhagic shock.
