RESUMEN

Objective:To investigate the association of metabolic syndrome(MS) with cardiovascular disease(CVD) mortality and all-cause mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent peritoneal dialysis from January 1, 2013 to July 31, 2021 in the Shaoxing People′s Hospital. Patients were divided into MS group and non-MS group. The differences in baseline biochemical variables, comorbidities, and clinical outcomes between the two groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier method was used to obtain survival curves, the Cox regression model was used to evaluate the influence of MS for survival rates, and the inverse probability of treatment weighting(IPTW) was used to eliminate influence of the confounders in the groups.Results:A total of 494 peritoneal dialysis patients were enrolled in this study, which were divided into MS group( n=266) and non-MS group( n=228). The total median follow-up time was(31±22) months. At baseline, the standard mean difference( SMD) in smoking history, drinking history, CVD history, prevalence of chronic glomerulonephritis, left ventricular ejection fraction, B-type natriuretic peptides, hemoglobin, blood calcium, hypersensitive C-reactive-protein, intact parathyroid hormone, ultrafiltration and 4 h dialysate/plasma creatinine in the two groups were greater than 0.1. Their SMD decreased to under 0.1 after IPTW, showing a good balance between the two groups. The analysis of the survival curve of Kaplan Meier showed that the cumulative survival rate and cumulative CVD survival rate in MS group were significantly lower than those in non-MS group before and after IPTW( P<0.05). After IPTW was used to eliminate the effect of confounders, multivariate Cox regression analysis still displayed that MS was an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality( HR=1.824, 95% CI 1.121-2.968, P=0.015) and CVD mortality( HR=2.470, 95% CI 1.324-4.609, P=0.004)in peritoneal dialysis patients. Conclusion:The prevalence of metabolic syndrome is high in peritoneal dialysis patients. MS is an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality and CVD mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients.

RESUMEN

Fibronectin-binding protein (FnBPA) is a protein that expresses on cell surface of Staphylococcus aureus during early stage of infection. FnBPA was capable of promoting Staphylococcus aureus to invade cells and was viewed as a potential immune target. Based on the FnBPA-A gene two recombinant expression vectors with or without Kozak sequence were constructed. After identified and confirmed by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing they were used to immunize C57BL/6 mice. Then induced antibody titer, T lymphocyte proliferative response and experiment mice challenge test were measured. Our result indicates that humoral immune responses and challenge experiment induced by recombinant DNA with Kozak sequence were better than those without Kozak sequence (P < 0.05). For T lymphocyte proliferative response the induced effect of recombinant DNA with Kozak sequence was higher than that without Kozak sequence, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). We conclude that Kozak sequence could play an important role in immune response induced by FnBPA-A recombinant DNA.

RESUMEN

Objective To study the effects of the antiarrhythmic drugs of propafenone, amiodarone and dilthiazem on c-type Kv1. 4 channels in Xenopus laevis oocytes with two-electrode voltage-clamp technique. Methods Defolliculated oocytes ( stage Ⅴ - Ⅵ) had transcribed cRNAs of ferret Kv1. 4△N channels injected. The oocytes were continuously perfused with control solution or propafenone, amiodarone and dilthiazem under monitoring of software of Clampfit v 9. 0. Results All of the three drugs blocked ferret Kv1. 4△N channel in voltage-, frequency- and concentration-dependent manners. The values of IC50 (50%inhibiting concentration ) of propafenone, amiodarone and dilthiazem were ( 103.4± 2. 2 ) μ mol/L,(501.22 +5.9) μmol/L and (353.62 +9.9) μmol/L, respectively. The currents under the actions of propafenone , amiodarone and dilthiazem were decreased to 41%, 32% and 21% of control group, respectively. Propafenone (100μ mol/L), Amiodarone (500μmol/L), dilthiazem (350μmol/L) inhibited currents to (54. 6 + 1.9 ) %, ( 46. 3 + 3.5 ) %, ( 52. 8 ± 2. 8 ) % of control group in voltage-dependent blockage. Conclusions The results suggested that all the three drugs blocked the kv1. 4△N channel in the open state. The three drugs block the kv1. 4△N channel maybe had the similiar effects in some respects, but each had its unique characteristics.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND:The key of stem cells for treating nervous tissue injury is the transplantation of stem coils that have regeneration capacity.The structure and function of central nervous system were re-established by multiple action mechanisms.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)locally transplanted into rats with spinal cord injury on neurological recovery.METHODS:BMSCs were separated with density gradient centrifugation and cell attachment.10 mg/L BrdU was used for labeling before cell transplantation.Adult female Wistar rats were used to establish spinal cord injury models using an aneurysm clip,and they were then randomly divided into control group,saline group and transplantation group.In the transplantation group,BMSCs were transplanted into the damaged spinal cord by stereotaxis at day 7 following damage.In the saline group,an equal volume of saline was utilized.In the control group,the rats were left intact.Basso,Beattie and Bresnahan(BBB)locomotor rating scale was used before and at 7,14,30,60 and 90 days following damage.Rats were sacrificed at day 90.BrdU-positive cells,Brdu+neuron specific enolase,Brdu+glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),Brdu+basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF),and Brdu+brain-derived nerve growth factor(BDNF)immunohistochemistry double-staining cells and simple staining positive calls were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The recovery of BBB function score was better in the transplantation group than in the control group(P<0.05).The recovery speed of BBB function score was slower in the saline group than in the control group at 30 days following damage(P<0.05).No significant difference was determined at day 90 compared with the control group(P>0.05).BrdU-positive cells and double-staining cells of immunohistochemistry could be found at the center of damage site and 1 cm from caudal end to damaged site in rats of the transplantation group.The number of NSE,GFAP,bFGF and BDNF simple staining cells was significantly greater in the transplantation group than in the control and saline groups(P<0.05).Results indicated that BMSC transplantation can improve the recovery of nervous function of rats with spinal cord injury.Its mechanism may be correlated with the differentiation of transplanted cells into neuron-like and glial cell-like cells,secretion or promoting secretion of neurotrophic factors in host.

RESUMEN

Objective To study the reliability and validity of the clinical neurologic deficit scale in evaluating stroke patients. Methods A total of 222 inpatients with acute stroke onset were included in the study. They were assessed when admitted, at the 14th and 90th day of hospitalization by different physicians using the clinical neurologic deficit scale. Intrarater and interrater reliability were determined using Kappa correlation. The split-half rehability and internal consistency were evaluated using Cranbach's a coefficient. Concurrent validity and the predictive validity were determined by spearman rank correlation coefficients. Construct validity was assessed by the factor analysis and the construct validity of the scale was measured according to the classifications of the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project ischemic stroke subtypes in the patients with cerebral infarction. Results The scores of intrarater reliability in all items were higher than 0.6, the score of interrater reliability in the item "walking" was 0.542, the split-half reliability and the internal consistency were good as demonstrated by the score of 0.911 and 0.886 respectively, and assessment of reliability of different methods showed that "strength in upper limb" and "strength in hand", were poor as shown by the score of 0.393 and 0.386 respectively. The scale is highly correlated with the NIHSS ( both P=0.000) in both total and subtypes of stroke patients according to the classifications of the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project by concurrent validity analysis. There was a high correlation between the scores of the scale and Barthel Index and the modified Rankin scales at the 90th day of hospitalization (both P=0.000). Conclusions The clinical neurologic deficit scale has a good internal consistency. There is concurrent validity between the scale and the NIHSS and could predict stroke outcome. Factor analysis of the scale displays the best construct validity in the patients with partial anterior circulation infarction, and could be used to evaluate the focus of vertebrobasilar artery despite its insensitivity.

RESUMEN

The effects of the antiarrhythmic drug propafenone at c-type kv1.4 channels in Xenopus laevis oocytes were studied with the two-electrode voltage-clamp techinique. Defolliculated oocytes (stage V-VI) were injected with transcribed cRNAs of ferret Kv1.4 delta N channels. During recording, oocytes were continuously perfused with control solution or propafenone. Propafenone decreased the currents during voltage steps. The block was voltage-, use-, and concentration- dependent manners. The block was increased with positive going potentials. The voltage dependence of block could be fitted with the sum of monoexponential and a linear function. Propafenone accelerated the inactivate of current during the voltage step. The concentration of half-maximal block (IC(50)) was 121 micrometer/L. With high, normal, and low extracellular potassium concentrations, the changes of IC(50) value had no significant statistical differences. The block of propafenone was PH- dependent in high-, normal- and low- extracellular potassium concentrations. Acidification of the extracellular solution to PH 6.0 increased the IC50 values to 463 micrometer/L, alkalization to PH 8.0 reduced it to 58 micrometer/L. The results suggest that propafenone blocks the kv1.4 delta N channel in the open state and give some hints for an intracellular site of action.

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of BmkTXK(beta), a newly purified 'long chain' peptide inhibitor of K(+) channels from the Chinese scorpion Buthus martensi Karsch (BmK), on the electrophysiological properties of isolated rabbit atrial myocytes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The standard whole-cell patch-clamp technique was used to study the effects of multiple concentrations of BmkTXK(beta) on potassium currents and action potentials.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>BmkTXK(beta) produced concentration-dependent prolongation of action potential duration at 20%, 50%, and 90% repolarization (APD(20,50,90)) without any use-dependence. Meanwhile, it had no significant effect on RMP, APA, or V(max) (n = 9). At a dose of 1 micro mol/L, BmkTXK(beta) decreased I(to) by 41.4% (n = 10, P < 0.01) at a membrane potential of +50 mV [from (13.63 +/- 0.87) pA/pF to (7.98 +/- 0.78) pA/pF]. I(to) was reduced significantly with an IC(50) value of 1.82 micromol/L (95% confidence interval: 1.47 - 2.17 micro mol/L), in a clear concentration-dependent manner. BmkTXK(beta) blocked I(Ks) and I(Ks),tail with an IC(50) of 20.15 micromol/L and a 95% confidence interval of 16.93 - 23.37 micromol/L. At a concentration of 10 micromol/L, BmkTXK(beta) blocked both I(Ks) (mean reduction 37.3% +/- 4.2%, P < 0.01, n = 7) and I(Ks), tail (mean reduction 35.8% +/- 4.1%, P < 0.01, n = 7). At 0 mV, 10 micromol/L BmkTXK(beta) inhibited both I(Kr) (mean reduction 40.5% +/- 2.6%, P < 0.01, n = 6) and I(Kr), tail (mean reduction 42.3% +/- 2.9%, P < 0.01, n = 6). Blocking of I(Kr) by BmkTXK(beta) occurred in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC(50) of 17.21 micromol/L (95% confidence interval: 14.76-19.66 micromol/L). An absence of effects on I(K1) was observed for BmkTXK(beta), with no change in reversal-potential (n = 6, P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>BmkTXK(beta) exerts direct blocking effects on several potassium channels involved in cardiac repolarization, and has a strong effect on prolonging the repolarization of rabbit cardiomyocytes without reverse frequency dependence. This finding suggests that BmkTXK(beta) could be a promising class III drug for anti-arrhythmic therapy without the risk of proarrhythmia.</p>
