    Objective To determine the expression level of microRNA-25 in animal models of diabetic nephropathy and human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) cultured in different conditions, and to explore its regulating effect on the fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy. Methods The expression of microRNA-25 was detected by real-time PCR.The downstream target protein of microRNA-25 was verified by bioinformatic prediction, transient transfection of cells and Western blotting. Results MicroRNA-25 was down-regulated in animal models of diabetic nephropathy and HK-2 cells which were cultured in high-glucose medium (P<0.01).MAP2K4 might be the downstream target protein of microRNA-25.Overexpression of microRNA-25 reduced the protein expression of MAP2K4 and α-SMA (P<0.01). Conclusion MicroRNA-25 inhibits the fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy by regulating the expression of MAP2K4.

    Objective To investigate the effect of clotrimazole on apoptosis of hepatic cells after ischemia-reperfusion injury and its mechanism. Methods Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion rat model was established.Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into sham-operated group,model control group,low dose clotrimazole group and high dose clotrimazole group.Apoptosis in hepatic tissue was assessed by TUNEL method.Protein expression levels of CYP3A1,Bcl-2,Bax and PARP were measured by Western blotting. Results As compared with model control group,the apoptosis rate,tissue injury,activity of plasma enzymes and the Bax/Bcl-2 expression ratio were reduced in low and high dose clotrimazole groups.The apoptotic index in both clotrimazole-treated groups was lower than that of model control group with statistically significant difference.CYP3A1 expression was significantly induced by clotrimazole compared to the sham-operated group. Conclusion Clotrimazole may inhibit apoptosis of hepatic cells by up-regulating Bcl-2 and down-regulating Bax,thus produce a protective effect on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury and it is also related to the inhibition of PARP shear.

    Objective To study the effects of propofol exposure during pregnancy on space cognitive and exploration abilities and expression of phosphorylated tau protein (P-tau) and beta-amyloid protein[Aβ(1-42)] in hippocampus of the offspring. Methods Sprague-Dawley female (n=24) and male rats (n=8) of three months old were mated at the same cage at the ratio of 3:1.Pregnant rats were randomly divided into early group (group E), medium group (group M), late group (group L) and control group (group C), with 6 rats in each group.Groups E, M and L received propofol 80 mg·kg-1·d-1 for 7 consecutive days.Propofol was replaced with equal volume of physiological saline in group C.Learning and memory of the 30-day offspring rats were assessed by using Morris water maze test.Then offspring rats were sacrificed to determine the expression of P-tau and Aβ(1-42) in the hippocampus by ELISA and immunohistochemistry. Results The learning and memory abilities were declined significantly in group E (51.20±8.11) s, group M (36.00±6.44) s and group L (47.20±12.30) s, as compared with group C (65.60±7.23) s (all P<0.05).The result of immunohistochemistry and ELISA showed that expression of Aβ(1-42) and P-tau in hippocampus was significantly higher in group M than in groups E, L and C[(immunohistochemistry: Aβ(1-42), (27.38±5.90) vs.(12.65±2.08), (13.79±3.37), and (65.60±7.23); P-tau, (26.35±5.83) vs.(13.65±3.46), (14.56±3.82), and (8.49±1.20); ELISA: Aβ(1-42), (88.6±7.43) vs. (71.60±6.79), (13.79±3.37), and (65.80±6.28); P-tau, (230.13±8.22) vs.(210.42±2.20), (210.95±1.75), and (200.65±1.57)] (all P<0.05). Conclusion Multiple propofol injections may impair rat offspring’s space cognitive abilities and exploration abilities, and the impairment is especially obvious in second trimester of pregnancy, which may be associated with over-expression of P-tau and Aβ(1-42).

    Objective To investigate the effects of nuciferine on hyperlipidemia in mice and to clarify the molecular mechanism. Methods Mice were divided into three groups according to the diet: normal control group (n=10), model control group (n=10), and the intervention group (n=10).The normal control group was treated with common diet (ANI-76A feed: 12.4% fat, 68.8% carbohydrate, 18.8% protein).The model control group was induced with high fat diet (37.1% fat, 42.4% carbohydrate, 20.5% protein).The intervention group was supplemented with 0.5% nuciferine based on high fat diet.The mice were allowed free access to food and water for a total of 10 weeks.Several indices were analyzed in the 3 groups, including the body weight, serum lipid, lipid metabolism key enzyme, oxidative stress and metabolic pathway. Results Our results suggested that the high-fat diet-induced animal models developed obesity and dyslipidemia (P<0.05).The body weight[(33.97±3.46) g vs.(27.62±2.87) g] and the serum lipid[(2.73±0.26) g vs.(1.91±0.21) g] were significantly decreased in the intervention group compared to the model control group (P<0.05), except for the hypertriglyceridemia (P>0.05).The activity of hepatic lipid metabolism key enzymes[(4.15±1.26) U·mL-1 vs.(9.01±1.34) U·mL-1] and the activity of hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase[(8.12±3.07) U·mL-1 vs.(13.48±3.75) U·mL-1] were elevated.Oxidative stress was also affected by nuciferine (P<0.05).Mechanism study suggested that lipid synthesis genes (like SREBP-1c, FAS, SCD-1 and PPAR gamma mRNA) were up-regulated by high fat diet (P<0.05), and the lipid oxidation metabolism genes, PPARα and CPT-1a mRNA, were down-regulated (P<0.05), while the intervention group treatment reversed these changes (P<0.05). Conclusion Nuciferine can improve hyperlipidemia, which might be related to the regulation of enzyme activity, oxidative stress and the changes of lipid synthesis and oxidative metabolism.

    Objective To evaluate the antitumor effects of chenodeoxycholic acid-verticinone ester (CDCA-Ver) on tumor growth and immune system of H22-bearing mice. Methods Antitumor activity against a solid tumor mass was evaluated in Kunming mice.H22 cells were transferred into the abdomen cavity of Kunming mice.H22 cells were inoculated through subcutaneous injection at the right armpit of the mouse to establish a solid tumor model.At 24 h after H22 tumor cells inoculation, 40 tumor-bearing Kunming mice were randomly divided into 4 groups according to random number table (n=10 each group): model control group, cyclophosphamide (CTX) group, intraperitoneal CDCA-Ver injection group and intravenous CDCA-Ver injection group. In model control group, sterile 0.9% sodium chloride solution (10 mL·kg-1) was intraperitoneally injected once daily. In CTX group and intraperitoneal CDCA-Ver injection group, CTX (20 mg·kg-1) and CDCA-Ver (20 mg·kg-1) was intraperitoneally injected once daily, respectively. In intravenous CDCA-Ver injection group, CDCA-Ver (20 mg·kg-1) was injected through tail vein once daily. CDCA-Ver, CTX and NS were injected into the mice of the experimental groups once daily for 10 days, respectively. The dose volume was 0.1 mL·(10 g)-1 body weight.The positive control drug was cyclophosphamide. Ten mice were treated with 20 mg·kg-1 CDCA-Ver through intravenous injection (i.v.).Ten mice were treated with 20 mg·kg-1 CDCA-Ver through intraperitoneal injection.The thymus and spleen indices and the tumor inhibition rate were assessed, and histopathological examination with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was carried out to evaluate the antitumor effects of CDCA-Ver. Results CDCA-Ver (ivor ip) suppressed the growth of solid tumor in H22-bearing mice.The inhibition rate was 48.3% at the dose of 20 mg·kg-1 CDCA-Ver (ip).There was no significant difference between CDCA-Ver (ip) and CTX treated group (P<0.05).Compared with the control, the weight of thymus and spleen of CDCA-Ver (ip) treated group was not obviously changed.But a significant weight loss of thymus and spleen in CTX group was observed, which was attributed to the immune suppression from CTX.The thymus and spleen indices in the CTX-treated mice were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.01).We further conducted histopathological examination to confirm the results.The immune system was not suppressed by CDCA-Ver (ip) in tumor-bearing animals.The low toxicity of CDCA-Ver was an outstanding advantage for the development of newly anticancer drug. Conclusion CDCA-Ver treatment can significantly inhibit tumor growth in mice.

    Objective To investigate the anti-tumor effects of hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) with different lactone ratios on the mice models of H22 hepatoma. Methods Mice models of H22 hepatoma were established.Tumor inhibiting rates of HCPT with different lactone ratios (0%,25%,50%,75%,100%) and the growth status of model mice before and after chemotherapy were observed.Serum biochemical indices were determined to investigate the effects of HCPT with different lactone ratios on hepatic and renal function of the mice. Results Positive control drug and HCPT with different lactone ratios all inhibited the tumor in mice with H22 hepatoma, the inhibition rate was 65.30%, 12.57%, 49.23%, 75.47%, 90.06% and 93.22%, respectively.Compared with the model control group, the living conditions of the mice in HCPT groups were improved.With increasing of lactone ratios, the hepatic injury was alleviated markedly, but the renal injury was aggravated. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between lactone ratios and its anti-tumor effect, and HCPT with 75% lactone can achieve preferable anti-tumor effect with less toxicity as compared with that with 100% lactone ratio.

    Objective To investigate how total parenteral nutrition(TPN) is applied in the neonatal units of the first affiliated hospital of Jinan university, provide reference for the standardized use of TPN, formulate appropriate guidelines, and ensure that clinical nutrition is properly and safely used in prenatal patients. Methods Preterm infants with gestational age<37 weeks and birth weights <2 500 g who used TPN in the neonatal units from January 2012 to June 2013 were assigned into two groups, Patients in Group 1 (n=27) began TPN within 3 d after birth, and patients in Group 2 (n=28) began TPN 3 d after birth.Body weight and the time to regain birth weight were obtained at discharge,, and biochemical indexes before and after TPN were also evaluated. Results Compared with late TPN, early TPN significantly reduce the time to regain birth weight[(12.5±7.2) d vs (8.9±5.5) d, P<0.05], and maintained normal blood glucose level (P<0.05). There were no differences with regards to length of hospitalization, duration of TPN use, growth rate, blood glucose, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, BUN, serum creatinine, BUN and serum bilirubin (all P>0.05).Both groups can effectively prevent and correct hypoglycemia and hypocalcemia. Conclusion Early TPN can promote growth of preterm infant.The use of TPN can improve hypoglycemia and hypocalcemia without effect on liver and kidney function.Neither group achieved ideal nutritional support outcome and therefore requires further improvement.
