RESUMEN
Objective To explore the mechanism of miR-421 affecting the occurrence and development of depression.Methods A depressive rat model was established by single intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide(LPS),and depressive behavior was detected by glucose preference test and open-field test.miRNA microarray chips and RT-PCR were used to analyze the expression level of miR-421 in hippocampus of the depressed rats.TargetScan database and mi RDB database were used to predict the target genes of miR-421.Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to observe the binding of miR-421 to the target genes.The impact of over-expression and inhibition of miR-421 on target genes was observed,then the influence of over-expression and inhibition of target genes on downstream factors was observed,and the related mechanism of miR-421 on depression was explored.Results miRNA microarray chips and RT-PCR assay showed that miR-421 was highly expressed in the hippocampus of the depressed rats(P<0.001),Inhibition of miR-421 expression could significantly restore the body weight and exercise ability of the depressed rats(P<0.001).Binding targets of Menin and miR-421 were predicted by TargetScan database,and interaction between Menin and miR-421 was demonstrated by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay.Menin expression was down-regulated while miR-421 was overexpressed(P<0.001),whereas it was up-regulated as miR-421 was inhibited(P<0.001).qPCR indicated that expressions of Caspase-3 and NF-κB in the hippocampus of the depressed rats was significantly increased(P<0.001),and IL-1β expression in the hippo-campus was significantly increased(P<0.01).When the expression of Menin was inhibited,the expressions of Caspase-3,NF-κB and IL-1β were increased(P<0.001),while the expressions of Caspase-3,NF-κB and IL-1β were decreased when Menin was overexpressed(P<0.001).Conclusions Inhibition of miR-421 expression can increase Menin expression,decrease Caspase-3 content,and reduce neuroinflammatory response,thereby improving depressive symptoms.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and related complications of modified suture method in treating perimembranous ventricular septal defect(VSD). Methods The clinical data of 110 children with perimembranous VSD were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 51 cases were treated with conventional suture method (conventional suture group), and 59 cases were treated with modified suture method(modified suture group).The extracorporeal circulation time,intraoperative blood transfusion volume, postoperative drainage volume, total hospital stay and related complications were recorded. The transthoracic echocardiography was performed 1, 6 and 12 months after operation. Results The children successfully completed the operation,and no intraoperative death occurred.The extracorporeal circulation time, intraoperative blood transfusion volume, postoperative drainage volume, total hospital stay and rate of related complications in modified suture group were significantly lower than those in conventional suture group: (41.2 ± 9.6) min vs. (52.1 ± 10.6) min, (182.2 ± 42.9) ml vs. (255.3 ± 56.7) ml, (73.2 ± 18.7) ml vs. (102.3 ± 23.5) ml, (12.8 ± 2.5) d vs. (16.1 ± 3.6) d and 13.6% (8/59) vs. 29.4% (15/51), and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or <0.05). The blood flow velocity of pulmonary valve and blood flow velocity of aortic valve 1,6 and 12 months after operation in modified suture group were significantly better than those in conventional suture group, blood flow velocity of pulmonary valve: (113.8 ± 21.4) cm/s vs. (126.5 ± 22.6) cm/s, (104.6 ± 18.2) cm/s vs. (112.3 ± 18.5) cm/s, (102.3 ± 15.8) cm/s vs. (113.8 ± 16.5) cm/s; blood flow velocity of aortic valve:(141.9 ± 24.6)cm/s vs.(136.0 ± 25.7)cm/s,(148.3 ± 18.7)cm/s vs.(142.3 ± 20.3)cm/s,(148.8 ± 18.1) cm/s vs. (141.6 ± 18.1) cm/s, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions The modified suture method has the characteristic of short operating time, less blood transfusion and postoperative drainage,and swift recovery.It also can reduce postoperative arrhythmia and residual reflux.

RESUMEN
Objective To explore the neuroprotection of Shuxuetongmai capsule pretreatment, and the effect on the expression of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) in rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion. Methods Ninety-six male SD rats were divided randomly into sham-operated group,ischemia/reperfusion group (I/R),ischemia preconditioning group (IP),and Shuxuetongmai group(n=24). Each group was further randomly divided into 4 subgroups by 3 h, 6 h, 24 h and 72 h after reperfusion, 6 rats in each subgroup. Sham-operated group was only performed artery separation . The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was set up in I/R rats by Longa method. The IP rats were performed for three minutes on the bilateral carotid artery ligation, and formed MCAO model 24 hours later. The rats in the Shuxuetongmai group were pretreated with Shuxuetongmai capsules for 14 days on gavage before the establishment of MCAO model. The neurological deficits were graded in rats by Zea Longa method. Western Blot was used to determine the protein expression of p38MAPK and P-p38MAPK. Tunel method was applied to detect the apoptosis of neurons and the relationship between expression of p38MAPK, P-p38MAPK and apoptosis of neuron. Results No neurological dysfunction appeared in the sham-operated group at each time points, but not for the other groups, which reached the peak at 24 h. Compared with the I/R group, IP group and Shuxuetongmai group presented the mild neurologic function deficiency at different time points in rats (P0.05). The obvious variation of the value of P-p38MAPK/p38MAPK wasn't detected in sham-operated group at different time points, while obviously presented in I/R group, and the ratios of P-p38MAPK/p38MAPK were increased gradually followed with reperfusion, approaching to the highest level at 24 h. Compared with the I/R group, the P-p38MAPK/p38MAPK declined from 3 h and to the lowest level at 24 h of reperfusion, in both IP and Shuxuetongmai groups(P0. 05). Conclusion Shuxuetongmai capsule pretreatment can induce brain ischemic tolerance, attenuate the apoptosis of neurons in cerebral ischemia reperfusion, and improve neurologic function. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of p38MAPK phosphorylation.
