Effects of hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion on parathyroid hormone in elderly patients with renal bone disease / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To explore the effects of hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion on parathyroid hormone in elderly patients with renal bone disease.Methods:A total of 160 elderly patients with renal bone disease treated in our hospital between March 2020 and March 2021 were recruited as research subjects and divided into an observation group and a control group, with 80 people in each group.The control group was given routine hemodialysis treatment, 3 times a week.The observation group was treated with hemoperfusion, twice a month, in addition to treatment given to the control group.After continuous dialysis and hemoperfusion treatment for 6 months, the clinical efficacy, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, total parathyroid hormone, renal function indexes, bone metabolism indexes and the incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results:The overall rate of effectiveness in the observation group(92.5%, 74 cases)was higher than that in the control group(81.3%, 65 cases), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=6.699, P=0.035). After treatment, the level of serum calcium in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, while the levels of serum phosphorus and whole parathyroid hormone in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant( t=8.59, 8.96, 9.21, P=0.023, 0.001, 0.001); After treatment, the levels of β 2 microglobulin(β 2-MG)(BUN)in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant( t=5.29, P=0.036). As for values of bone metabolism indexes in the observation group after treatment, the levels of, N-MIDOs, β-Crossl and PINP were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant( t=7.26, 6.16, 8.23; P=0.007, 0.018, 0.003). During treatment, the incidences of adverse reactions in the observation group and the control group were 20.00%(16/80)and 18.75%(15/80), respectively, with no statistical significance( χ2=0.725, P=0.615). Conclusions:Hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion in the treatment of elderly patients with renal bone disease has a clear efficacy, can increase the level of serum calcium, reduce the levels of serum phosphorus and whole parathyroid hormone, and also can reduce the levels such as β 2-MG and bone metabolism indexes such as N-MIDOs, β-Crossl and PINP, indicating that this therapy can effectively improve calcium and phosphorus metabolism for elderly patients, delay the development of renal osteopathy, and should be recommended in clinical practice.

Influence of protein energy wasting on frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To explore the correlation between protein energy wasting(PEW)and frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)and influencing factors of frailty.Methods:Clinical data of patients over 60 who had received regular hemodialysis treatment at Beijing Huairou Hospital between September to December 2021 were collected.According to Fried's evaluation criteria, patients were divided into a frailty group and a non-frailty group, and differences between the two groups were compared.Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to assess the correlation between protein energy wasting and frailty.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of frailty in elderly patients on MHD.Results:A total of 81 MHD patients enrolled in this study, with 36 in the frailty group.The frailty group was older, had a higher proportion of patients with PEW, and underwent more months of dialysis, with a higher proportion of patients with diabetic nephropathy as the primary disease, having high levels of C-reactive protein(CRP), and having low KT/V, hemoglobin, albumin, body mass index(BMI), mid-arm circumference(MAC)and mid-arm muscle circumference(MAMC), and the differences with the control group were statistically significant(all P<0.05). The Fried frailty phenotype was positively correlated with age( r=0.021, P=0.047), but negatively associated with HGB( r=-0.329, P=0.003), albumin( r=0.021, P=0.047), BMI( r=0.021, P=0.047), TSF( r=-0.274, P=0.013), MAC( r=-0.554, P<0.001)and MAMC( r=-0.293, P=0.008). A Logistic regression equation was constructed using frailty as the dependent variable.The results showed that age, months of dialysis, KT/V, serum albumin and CRP were independent factors influencing the development of frailty in elderly patients with MHD. Conclusions:PEW and frailty coexist and interact with each other in elderly patients with MHD.Clinicians should place emphasis on the assessment of frailty and protein energy wasting in elderly dialysis patients and achieve early detection and intervention to avoid adverse clinical outcomes.

Early initiation of antiviral therapy reduces the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in individuals with chronic hepatitis B virus infection / 临床肝胆病杂志

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major cause of viral hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). From chronic HBV infection to HCC, most patients go through the stages of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and HCC. During this long process, the ongoing integration of HBV DNA into host DNA increases the risk of HCC, and the death and compensatory proliferation of hepatocytes caused by persistent liver inflammation may promote the accumulation of oncogenic mutations and finally lead to the malignant transformation of hepatocytes. Currently, nucleos(t)ide analogues are widely used anti-HBV drugs, which controls infection by inhibiting HBV replication and can thus effectively slow down disease progression and end-stage liver disease; however, anti-HBV therapy often starts late and has a relatively low treatment rate, and there is still a tendency of increase in the incidence rate of HBV-related HCC. Therefore, how to improve current antiviral strategies to further reduce the risk of HBV-related end-stage liver disease including HCC has become a hotspot in clinical practice. This article summarizes the previous studies supporting the expansion of antiviral therapy and suggests that antiviral therapy should be initiated as early as possible to inhibit viral replication and the sequential events of HBV DNA integration and ultimately reduce the risk of HCC in patients with chronic HBV infection.

Formulation of expert consensus on clinical application of external ethnic medicine: taking Baimai Ointment as an example / 中国中药杂志

The concept of ethnic medicine is divided into a broad sense and a narrow sense. The broad concept refers to the traditional medicine of the Chinese nation, and the narrow concept refers to the traditional medicine of Chinese ethnic minorities. The external medicine is one of the main forms of ethnic medicine, and it is also the important content of ethnic medicine for external use, which is widely used in clinical practice. As the theory of ethnic medicine is unique, the application methods have certain characteristics, which are the key technical parts of clinical practice. However, the existing traditional Chinese medicine consensus formulation me-thods cannot meet the needs of the consensus formulation of the external ethnic medicine. Therefore, the methods suitable for expert consensus on external ethnic medicine are required. This article took Expert opinion on clinical application of Baimai Ointment as an exa-mple, and explorde a reasonable, effective, multi-dimensional, and multi-stage method to formulate expert consensus on the external ethnic medicine. In this research, three-dimensional sources of information, including ancient classics, clinical research evidence, and expert application experiences, were systematically and scientifically collected. After organization and analysis, the information was formed into comprehensive evidence. In a formal consensus meeting, part of the recommendations reached consensus. As to the issues that did not reach agreement, in-depth interviews were used to explore the reasons for the differences and resolve the disagreements. Finally, unanimous recommendations were reached. There are common problems during the formulation process of Expert opinion on clinical application of Baimai Ointment. This study is expected to provide references for the formulation of expert consensus on other external ethnic medicine.

Clinicopathological characteristics of idiopathic membranous nephropathy in elderly patients / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To compare the clinicopathological differences between elderly and non-elderly patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN).Methods:Patients diagnosed with IMN via renal biopsy at Beijing Huairou Hospital, Beijing Changping Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to August 2021 were retrospectively enrolled.They were classified into the elderly group(≥65 years)and the non-elderly group(<65 years), and the clinicopathological differences between the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 207 IMN patients were included in the study, with a male to female ratio of 1.7∶1.0.There were 56 patients in the elderly group, aged(68.2±3.1)years, and 151 patients in the non-elderly group, aged(48.2±6.2)years.Compared with the non-elderly group, the elderly group had a longer time from onset to renal biopsy and a higher proportion of patients with renal insufficiency and hypertension( P<0.05). The elderly group had a lower eGFR, lower serum albumin, higher serum cholesterol, and higher low-density lipoprotein than the non-elderly group( P<0.05). The proportions of patients with glomerulosclerosis, renal tubular atrophy, and interstitial fibrosis in the elderly group were higher than in the non-elderly group( P<0.05). The positive rates of glomerular PLA2R antigen staining in the two groups were 90.6%(29/32)and 91.0%(111/122), respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.IgG4 deposition represented the most common IgG subtype, with 93.8%(30/32)in the elderly group and 94.3%(115/122)in the non-elderly group.There was no statistical significance between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with non-elderly IMN patients, a higher proportion of elderly IMN patients has renal insufficiency, hypertension and chronic renal pathology.The glomerular deposition of pathogenic antigens in elderly IMN patients was similar to that in non-elderly IMN patients, suggesting no difference in pathogenesis between the two groups.The clinicopathological differences between the two groups may be related to age and complications.

Analysis of frailty and its related factors in elderly patients with stage 3-5 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of frailty in elderly patients with stage 3-5 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease(ND-CKD)and to analyze its related factors.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.Patients ≥65 years old with stage 3-5 CKD who had never undergone dialysis in the nephrology department and the internal medicine department of our hospital between October 2017 to September 2018 were enrolled.Patients were divided into the non-frail group and the frail group according to the Fried frailty phenotype.Clinical data and laboratory results were collected and comprehensive geriatric assessment was carried out to evaluate participants' medication, comorbidities, daily living ability, nutritional status, depression, cognitive and physical performance.The relevant factors for frailty were analyzed.Results:A total of 193 elderly patients with stage 3-5 ND-CKD were enrolled, 106 male and 87 female, including 68 outpatients and 125 inpatients, with a median age of 79.00(73.00, 85.00)years.There were 143 frailty patients(74.1%), including 41 outpatients and 102 inpatients, accounting for 60.3% and 81.6% of the eligible outpatients and inpatients respectively.Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that CKD stage( OR=9.74, 95% CI: 1.12-84.54)and polypharmacy( OR=3.69, 95% CI: 1.09-12.42)were associated with frailty in outpatients, and CKD stage( OR=11.75, 95% CI: 1.38-99.99)and malnourishment or risk of malnutrition( OR=4.22, 95% CI: 1.40-12.74)were correlated with frailty in inpatients. Conclusions:The prevalence of frailty is high in elderly patients with stage 3-5 ND-CKD.CKD stage, polypharmacy and malnourishment or the risk of malnutrition are closely correlated with frailty.

Systematic review of efficacy and safety of Ginkgo biloba extract 50 in treatment of ischemic stroke / 中国中药杂志

The present study aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ginkgo biloba extract 50(GBE50) in the treatment of ischemic stroke. The databases including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, EMbase, and Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trial(RCT) of GBE50 for the treatment of ischemic stroke reported between database inception and May 2020. The methodological quality of the included RCTs was evaluated via the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The RevMan 5.4 was used for Meta-analysis. Sixteen RCTs were included, involving 1 615 patients with acute ischemic stroke. Most of the included RCTs reported the methods of random sequence generation, but only two performed the concealment of random sequence. All RCTs failed in blinding. Two RCTs reported the information of cases lost to follow-up and drop-outs. Since the number was small, the baselines of groups remained balanced. All RCTs reported key outcomes of ischemic stroke, which made selective reporting bias in a low risk. Meta-analysis results revealed that GBE50 combined with routine therapies could effectively lower the score of the National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) and restore cognitive function and daily activity in ischemic stroke patients. Compared with routine therapies, the combination is advantageous in treating patients with ischemic stroke. However, high-quality multicenter RCTs with large sample sizes are still required for verification.

Research progress on cognitive frailty in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease / 中华老年医学杂志

With the population aging, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease(CKD)is increasing.Frailty is a complex syndrome in the elderly.Elderly CKD patients have higher risks of frailty and cognitive impairment than the general elderly population.In recent years, the relationship between frailty and cognition has gradually attracted the attention of researchers at home and abroad.Cognitive frailty is regarded as a subtype of frailty and has become one of the research hotspots in the field of gerontology.However, there are few studies on the relationship between CKD and cognitive frailty in the elderly.This article reviews research progress on the topic, including the epidemiology, evaluation methods and possible pathogenesis of cognitive frailty in elderly CKD patients.

Fixation with Femoral Neck System for femoral neck fractures: short-term therapeutic outcomes / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Objective:To explore the short-term therapeutic outcomes of femoral neck fractures fixated by Femoral Neck System (FNS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 16 patients with femoral neck fracture who had been admitted to the Department of Traumatology & Orthopedics, The Second Affiliated Hospital to Anhui Medical University from January to December 2019. They were 6 males and 10 females, aged from 24 to 69 years (average, 47.5 years). According to the Garden Classification, there were 3 cases of type Ⅱ, 7 cases of type Ⅲ, and 6 cases of type Ⅳ. All the 16 patients were fixated with FNS. Recorded were operation time, frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, intraoperative blood loss, quality of postoperative fracture reduction, hospital stay, fracture healing time, and efficacy and complications at the last follow-up.Results:The 16 patients were followed up for 5 to 16 months after operation (average, 9.3 months). According to the Garden indexes, fracture reduction was evaluated as satisfactory in all the 16 patients. The operation time in this group ranged from 25 to 115 min with an average of 41.5 min, the frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy from 14 to 47 times with an average of 26 times, the intraoperative blood loss from 35 to 210 mL with an average of 76 mL, the hospital stay from 3 to 9 days with an average of 4.6 days, and the fracture healing time from 3 to 6 months with an average of 4.5 months. By the Harris hip scores at the last follow-up, the function of the affected hip was rated as excellent in 10 cases, good in 5 and fair in one. Follow-ups revealed no complications like infection or implant loosening.Conclusions:The FNS is a new type of simple, reliable, safe and minimally invasive internal fixation for the treatment of femoral neck fractures. The plate, bolt, anti-rotation screws and locking screws in FNS can be inserted through a single minimally invasive incision, leading to reliable fixation, limited irritation to the lateral muscular soft tissues, and fine short-term outcomes.

Variant analysis on steroid 5-reductase type 2 deficiency caused by a novel SRD5A2 mutation / 中国当代儿科杂志

This article reported the clinical characteristics and SRD5A2 gene mutation pattern of a child with steroid 5-α reductase type 2 deficiency. The 2-month-old boy showed hypospadias and short penis shortly after birth. DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the child and his parents. The endocrine disease-related genes were captured and sequenced by high-throughput sequencing technology, and the family DNA samples were verified by Sanger sequencing. The results showed that c.680G>A(p.R227Q) and c.608G>A(p.G203D) compound heterozygous mutations existed in the SRD5A2 gene of the child. The c.680G>A mutation inherited from his father, which was a known pathogenic mutation. The c.608G>A mutation originated from his mother, which was a novel mutation discovered in this study. These results provide molecular evidence for the etiological diagnosis of the child and genetic counseling for the family, as well as extend the mutation spectrum of SRD5A2 gene.

The incidence and related factors of coronary events among 40-49 years old patients undergoing cardiac thoracotomy without preoperative CAG / 中华心血管病杂志

Objective: To investigate the long-term incidence of coronary events and related factors in patients undergoing cardiac thoracotomy without preoperative coronary angiography (CAG). Methods: This was a retrospective study. The clinical data of patients, aged between 40 and 49 years old, who underwent cardiothoracic surgery, including heart valve surgery, congenital heart disease surgery, cardio great vessels surgery and other non-coronary artery disease (CAD) surgery, in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from December 2009 to May 2017, were enrolled. Patients with suspected CAD, or patients with coronary CTA defined calcified coronary arteries received CAG examination prior operation, and the rest patients did not receive routine CAG examinations. The patients who did not receive routine CAG examinations were followed up by telephone. The primary endpoints include death related to coronary arteries, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The secondary endpoints include the new onset angina, clinically diagnosed CAD or receiving the first and second prevention for CAD. The other outcome events included cardiac death and all-cause mortality. The primary and secondary endpoints were all regarded as coronary events. The patients without preoperative CAG were divided into two groups: the positive group and the negative group, according to the incidence of coronary events during follow-up. Clinical data were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 952 patients were included. The age was (45.2±2.7) years old, 406(42.65%) patients were male. Preoperative CAG was performed in 73 patients, among whom 9 (12.32%) patients underwent simultaneous CABG. Among the 879 cases who did not undergo coronary angiography before the operation, 18(2.05%) died during perioperative period (hospitalization and within 30 days after discharge). The patients were followed up for (61.6±25.8) months, and 28(3.25%) patients were lost to follow up. During long-term follow up, there were no fatal cases due to severe coronary events and no cases of CABG or PCI. Only 4.41% (38/861) patients had the secondary endpoints, namely the occasional onset of atypical angina. The incidence rate of the long-term coronary events, all-cause mortality and cardiac death were 4.41% (38/861), 1.16% (10/861), 0.46% (4/861) during long-term follow-up. The prevalence of hypertension was significantly higher in positive group than negative group (34.21% (13/38) vs. 20.89% (164/785), P=0.045). Conclusions: It is feasible not to perform preoperative CAG examination for non-CAD patients aged 40-49 years who will undergo cardiac thoracotomy. However, we need to be aware the risk of coronary events in the patients complicating with risk factors of CAD, such as hypertension.

Usefulness of large-section cytokeratin 20 in the detection of intestinal wall infiltration and mesangial metastasis in patients with middle and lower rectal cancer

Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of large-section cytokeratin 20 (CK20) staining technique in the detection of infiltration on the distal wall and mesangial metastasis in patients with middle and lower rectal cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 62 patients with rectal cancer in the middle and lower segment were studied on large slices stained with CK20. Logistic regression was used to analyze the clinicopathologic factors related to distal low and middle rectal cancer metastasis to the mesorectum and rectal wall. Results: Two types of distal metastasis of the tumor were observed in the rectal wall in 18% (11/62) of the patients: submucosal invasion and muscularis propria invasion. The extent of distal metastasis to the rectal wall was around 0.5–1.0 cm. Four types of distal metastasis occurred in the mesorectum: lymph node invasion, blood and lymphatic vessel invasion, perineural invasion, and isolated neoplastic microfoci. Distal metastasis to the mesorectum was observed in 24% (15/62) of the patients. The extent of metastasis to the mesorectum was around 0.5–4.0 cm. Another three patients with microcapillary invasion in the distal mesorectum were observed by immunohistochemistry, as it was difficult to determine the spread by conventional hematoxylin and eosin staining. Conclusion: The large-section CK20 staining technique is useful for the detection of infiltration on the distal wall and mesangial metastasis in patients with middle and lower rectal cancer

Advances in proteomics in elderly patients with frailty / 中华老年医学杂志

With population aging,the number of elderly subjects with frailty is increasing,and frailty can lead to adverse clinical outcomes.Early screening,early diagnosis and early prevention and treatment of frailty have important clinical significance.Due to increasing demand for early screening,early diagnosis and prognosis assessment,preliminary screening for frailty based on characteristic changes in specific proteomics may be a promising diagnostic strategy.At present,most research mainly focuses on skeletal muscle proteomics,inflammatory proteomics and vascular system proteomics.This review will summarize and analyze recent proteomic studies on protein profiles of frailty and non-frailty subjects.

Detection and Analysis of 12 Suspected Amelogenin Allelic Loss Cases / 法医学杂志

OBJECTIVES@#To observe and analyse the Amelogenin allelic loss in parent-child identification cases, and to explore the type and mechanism of Amelogenin allelic loss as well as its influence on gender identification and solutions.@*METHODS@#After the detection by SiFaSTR™ 23plex DNA identification system, samples had the characteristics of the peak area of Amelogenin X was the same as the one of adjacent heterozygote or lower than one half of adjacent homozygote in females while Amelogenin X loss was observed in males were selected. X chromosome STR （X-STR） typing and Amelogenin X sequencing were performed. The samples with Amelogenin Y loss in males were confirmed by the detection of Y chromosome STR typing and sex-determining region of Y （SRY）. The type and rate of Amelogenin allelic loss were confirmed and calculated, and the mechanism and influence of this variation were also analysed.@*RESULTS@#Amelogenin X allelic loss was observed in one male sample, the mutation in primer-binding region was confirmed by sequencing. The suspected Amelogenin X allelic loss was observed in four female samples, but the mutation in primer-binding region was confirmed by sequencing in only one sample. Amelogenin Y allelic loss was observed in seven male samples, SRY positive cases was detected in five of them, and two were SRY negative. Y-STR type was detected in four cases of the five SRY positive cases, which was not detected in the two SRY negative cases. The rate of Amelogenin allelic loss was about 0.029%.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Amelogenin X allelic loss does not affect the gender identification, but Amelogenin Y allelic loss may cause wrong gender identification. Thus, Y-STR or SRY should be detected for gender confirmation. When Y-STR genotypes are not detected in a "male" whose SRY detection is also negative, then the chromosome karyotype analysis and sex differentiation related genes test should be taken to further confirm the gender.

Practice and reflection on the "organ-system-based" curriculum reform / 中华医学教育探索杂志

The organ-system-based curriculum (OSBC) medical teaching model with the organ system as the main line closely links the basic medical curriculum with the clinical practice,and breaks the boundaries between different subjects.As this novel teaching model is still in the early stage in China,Chongqing Medical University pioneered to reconstruct the teaching system for OSBC teaching reform,including the great efforts to integrate e the traditional 24 courses into 12,and to allocate talents from various basic and clinical teaching departments to form a new integrated teaching team.In 2011,this new mode was implemented in a pilot class of students.The results showed the 2011 five-year pilot class showed more satisfaction than did the traditional teaching class [(92.5 ± 4.6)％ vs.(72.5 ± 4.9)％,P＜0.05].Besides,the test scores of the pilot class and the traditional class were (80.0 ± 3.6) and (71.0 ± 5.9) respectively(P＜0.05),and the failing rate was (3.7％ in pilot class and 9.3％ in traditional class(P＜0.05).Since the pilot class perform better than the traditional one,the reform of OSBC was implemented for all five-year clinical medicine program in Chongqing Medical University in 2018.

Kaposi varicelliform eruption with severe complications:a case report / 临床儿科杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of Kaposi varicelliform eruption with severe complications. Methods The clinical data of one child with Kaposi varicelliform eruption with severe complications was retrospectively analyzed. The related literatures were reviewed. Results A 5-month-old boy presented with recurrent rash on the head and face for 3 months and aggravated for 3 days. The skin lesions showed a characteristic of typical dome-shaped blisters with hemorrhagic crusting. At admission, the boy suffered with severe hypoproteinemia, hypocalcemia, and electrolyte disorder. The hypocalcemia was aggravated gradually. On the fifth day of admission, the boy had fever, convulsions, and tachycardia. Blood culture showed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MASA) infection. The diagnosis of sepsis was confirmed. At that very day, the boy started to have coagulopathy, so Fusidic and Vancomycin for anti-infection, Acyclovir for antivirus, intravenous infusion immunoglobulin, albumin, cryoprecipitate, plasma and calcium gluconate were administered, supplied with albumin and blood coagulation factor. The boy's condition gradually became stable and discharged on the 19th day after admission. Conclusions When Kaposi varicelliform eruption is complicated with hypoproteinemia and hypocalcemia, the critical illness is indicated. Clinicians should be alerted to the existence of sepsis, coagulation disorders, even septic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Role and mechanism of Angiotensin Ⅱ-induced ChemR23 in podocyte injury / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective To observe the expression of ChemR23 induced by Angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ) in podocyte and its role in renal injury.Methods Conditionally immortalized mice podocytes were cultured in vitro.Immunofluorescence was used to observe the sub-cellular location of ChemR23.The expressions of ChemR23,Nephrin and Podocin stimulated by different concentrations of Ang Ⅱ were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blotting.Lentivirus targeting ChemR23 was used.The expressions of Nephrin and Podocin and the phosphorylation state of NF-κB P65 were detected by Western Blot.The inhibitor of NF-κB P65 was added to the cultural medium for 2 h before Ang Ⅱ stimulation.The effect of NF-κB P65 inhibitor on Ang Ⅱ-induced expression of Nephrin and Podocin was detected by Western Blot.Results It is showed that ChemR23 was located in cytosol and membrane.Compared with the normal control,the expression of ChemR23 was significantly increased by Ang Ⅱ in mRNA and protein level,while the expressions of Nephrin and Podocin were decreased (P ＜ 0.05).When using Lentivirus vector to interfere the expression of ChemR23,Ang Ⅱ-repressed expressions of Nephrin and Podocin were restored (P ＜ 0.05).Western Blot showed the level of phosphorylated NF-κB P65 was significantly increased by Ang Ⅱ stimulation (P ＜ 0.05),which could be inhibited by interfering the expression of ChemR23.When adding the NF-κB P65 inhibitor,the low expression of Nephrin and Podocin induced by Ang Ⅱ stimulation was restored (P＜0.05).Conclusions Ang Ⅱ can induce ChemR23 expression,which activates NF-κB P65 signaling pathway,and then inhibits the expressions of Nephrin and Podocin.Targeting ChemR23 is a potential way to alleviate podocyte injury caused by Ang Ⅱ.
