RESUMEN
Objective To induce adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) differentiation into cardiomyocytes, so as to provide stem cells for myocardial regeneration.Method ADMSCs were isolated and cultured from adult adipose tissue in vitro.They were induced with 10μmol/L 5-azacytidine (5Aza) for 24h.At the 7th, 14th, 21st days after induction, the expression of α-sarcomeric actin, and myosin heavy chain were repeatedly detected by immunocytochemistry.The expression of ANP was detected by RT-PCR.Results At the 7th day after induction, there was no expression of α-sarcomeric actin and MHC.At the 14th day, there was a little expression of α-sarcomeric actin and MHC that could be seen in cells.At the 21st day, there was increased expression of α-sarcomeric and MHC, and the expression of ANP was positive results detected by RT-PCR.Conclusions 5-Aza can induced ADMSCs to differentiate into cardiomyocytes.ADMSCs might be a potential source of cell transplantation for myocardial.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of Ang-(1-7) on the apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) induced by Ang Ⅱ.Methods HUVECs were isolated and cultured.Cultured HUVECs were incubated for 24 h with Ang-(1-7), Ang Ⅱ, Ang-(1-7) A-779, Ang-(1-7) + Ang Ⅱ, A-779 + Ang Ⅱ + Ang-( 1-7), respectively.Cultured HUVECs without incubating stimulator were chosen as controls.The apoptosis of endothelial cells were detected by flow cytometry.Results The apoptosis of endothelial cells in HUVECs were upregulated by AngⅡ ( 10-6 mol/L) (25.60% ±3.17% vs 2.32% ±0.24%, P ＜0.005).Compared with the AngⅡ group, Ang-(1-7) dose-dependently inhibited the apoptosis of endothelial cells in HUVECs ( (20.04% ± 2.21% ,16.04% ± 1.32 %, 10.04% ±2.05,7.79% ±1.50% vs AngⅡ group 25.60% ±3.17%, P ＜0.05 , P ＜0.05).The effects of Ang-(1-7) could be blocked by A-779 (23.37% ±0.75% vs 20.04% ± 2.21%, 16.04% ± 1.32,10.04% ± 2.05% ,7.79%± 1.50%, P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Ang-(1-7) can attenuate the apoptosis of endothelial cells induced by Ang Ⅱ in HUVECs in a dose-dependent manner.The effects of Ang-(1-7) could be blocked by A-779( P＜0.05).
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effects of the short-term intervention lifestyle intervention on metabolic measurements of community patients with impaired glucose regulation (IGR). Methods A total of 90 IGR participants were randomly assigned to the control group (n=45) or the intervention group (n= 45). The subjects in the control group received routine diet and physical exercise advice once a month. The subjects in the intervention group received additional individualized diet counseling and circuit-type resistance training. Metabolic parameters were compared before or after the intervention between the two groups. Results In oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT),2-h plasma glucose (PG) and homeostasis model of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) were significantly decreased in the intervention group at 3 months(F= 13.47 or 82.25 ,both P < 0.05). Body mass index (t=-2.44, P<0.05), systolic blood pressure (t= -3.39, P<0.05), diastolic blood pressure (t=-3.97, P<0.05), fasting plasma glucose (t=-3.89, P<0.05),2-h PG (t=-7.22,P <0.05) ,total cholesterol (t=-2.72,P<0.05),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (t=-2.74, P<0.05), and glycosylated hemoglobin A1 C (t=-3.73, P<0.05) were significantly declined in the intervention group compared to the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusions Intensive lifestyle intervention can significantly improve the metabolic markers of IGR subjects and should be used to prevent type 2 diabetes.

@# ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of endoscopy in the diagnosis of biliary tract roundworm disease.Methods32 cases of biliary tract roundworm diseases were diagnosed and treated with fibre (electron) stomach duodenum endoscopy and fibre biliary tract endoscopy under the direct-view.Results32 cases were all clearly diagnosed and the worms were taken out with direct-view endoscopy or direct cholangiography with no complications.ConclusionEndoscopy is effective and accurate for the biliary tract roundworm disease and has the advantage of rapidly dispelling the sufferings of the patients.
RESUMEN
Objective The effect of acidity and severity of gastric atrophy on Helicobactor pylori (H.pylori) colonization was studied. Methods 95 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) and positive H.pylori test were categorized into groups.Group 1,48 cases having moderate atrophic antritis with various degrees of fundic atrophy.Group 2,47 cases having mild fundic atrophy with various degrees of antritis. Assessment was made of basic and maximum acid output (BAO, MAO ) as well as of gastrin. H.pylori was tested with Warthin-Starry staining. Results In group 1, H.pylori colonization reduced significantly (P0.05) was found between patients with severe and moderate atrophy in fundus, while H.pylori colonization declined more markedly (P0.05) between cases with moderate and severe antritis,whereas H.pylori colonization reduced more significantly in the latter than the former (P
