RESUMO
Objective:To improve clinicians' understanding of congenital nephrogenital diabetes insipidus (CNDI) and to reduce missed and misdiagnosis. Methords Based on the literature, the clinical data and gene mutation of 2 patients with CNDI who were admitted to the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism of the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology on July 30, 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Results:(1) The presentee, 4 years old, had irritable thirst, polydipsia and polyuria for more than 3 years. The sister, 2.5 years old, had irritable thirst, polydipsia and polyuria for more than 2 years. The clinical diagnosis was “CNDI”, and the symptoms improved after treatment with hydrochlorothiazide. (2) The genetic test revealed that the congenital nephrogenic uremia and her sister had a heterozygous mutation of c.170A>C (p.Q57P) and c.211G>A (p.Vl71M) in the aquaporin-2 gene, and the mother carried the AQP2 gene. c.170A>C(p.Q57P) mutation.Conclusion:CNDI is a rare disease. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the prognosis of patients to the greatest extent, and prenatal diagnosis can guide eugenics.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effects oftelmisartan (TEL) on learning and memory functions of animal models of Alzheimer's disease combined with hypertension.Methods Seventy male spontaneously hypertensive rats were randomly assigned into 7 groups:control group,sham-operated group,model group,low TEL group (1 mg/[kg· d]),high TEL group (10 mg/[kg· d]),low TEL+GW9662 group (Tel 1 mg/[kg·d]+GW 1 mg/[kg·d]),and high TEL+GW9662 group (Tel 10 mg/[kg·d],GW 10 mg/[kg·d],n=10);the lateral cerebral ventricle of rats in the later 5 groups were injected with beta-amyloid peptide 1-42 (Aβ1-42);rats in the sham-operated group were given the same volume of normal saline,and those in the control group did not give any treatment.The learning and memory abilities of these rats were detected by Morris Maze test;microglia level and casepase-3 expression were assessed by immunohistochemical stainning.Results Constant-bearing navigation indicated that as compared with the model group,the high TEL+GW9662 group,control group and sham-operated group had significantly shorten escape latency on the 3rd d of experiment (P＜0.05),and as compared with the model group,the low TEL group,high TEL group and high TEL+GW9662 group had significantly shorten latency (P＜0.05).Spatial probe test showed that the times of crossing the platform,target quadrant residence time in the low TEL group,high TEL group and high TEL+GW9662 group were significantly larger/longer than those in the model group (P＜0.05).The casepase-3 expression and microglia level in the CA1 area of model group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.05);The Ibal and caspase-3 expressions in the low TEL group,high TEL group and high TEL+GW9662 group were significantly weaker than those in the model group (P＜0.05).Conclusion TEL has preventive effect on cognitive decline in rat models of Alzheimer's disease complicated with hypertension,and can be restrained by GW9662,which suggests that these benefits might be partly resulted from PPAR-γ activation and intracranial infection inhibitation.
