Objective Recombinase-aided polymerase chain reaction(RAP)is a sensitive,single-tube,two-stage nucleic acid amplification method.This study aimed to develop an assay that can be used for the early diagnosis of three types of bacteremia caused by Staphylococcus aureus(SA),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA),and Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)in the bloodstream based on recombinant human mannanbinding lectin protein(M1 protein)-conjugated magnetic bead(M1 bead)enrichment of pathogens combined with RAP.Methods Recombinant plasmids were used to evaluate the assay sensitivity.Common blood influenza bacteria were used for the specific detection.Simulated and clinical plasma samples were enriched with M1 beads and then subjected to multiple recombinase-aided PCR(M-RAP)and quantitative PCR(qPCR)assays.Kappa analysis was used to evaluate the consistency between the two assays.Results The M-RAP method had sensitivity rates of 1,10,and 1 copies/μL for the detection of SA,PA,and AB plasmids,respectively,without cross-reaction to other bacterial species.The M-RAP assay obtained results for<10 CFU/mL pathogens in the blood within 4 h,with higher sensitivity than qPCR.M-RAP and qPCR for SA,PA,and AB yielded Kappa values of 0.839,0.815,and 0.856,respectively(P<0.05).Conclusion An M-RAP assay for SA,PA,and AB in blood samples utilizing M1 bead enrichment has been developed and can be potentially used for the early detection of bacteremia. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Direct infiltration of the pancreas by acute myeloid leukemia(AML)with acute pancreatitis(AP)as an initial symptom is extremely rare.Only once in the literature,the leukemia cells in AML have been implicated as the cause of AP.Pancreatitis caused by a rare predisposing factor is often misdiagnosed as idiopathic pancreatitis or pancreatitis of other common causes.Severe AP(SAP)progresses rapidly with a high fatality rate.Therefore,it is important to identify the predisposing factors in the early stage of SAP,evaluate the condition,determine prognosis,formulate treatment plans,and prevent a recurrence.Here,we describe a case of SAP due to AML.CASE SUMMARY A 61-year-old man presented to the hospital with fever and persistent abdominal pain.Blood analysis presented significantly elevated serum amylase and severe thrombocytopenia.Computed tomography examination of the abdomen revealed peripancreatic inflammatory effusion.The patient had no common etiologies and risk factors for AP,but the concurrent severe thrombocytopenia could not be explained by pancreatitis.Finally,the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy inspection revealed the underlying reason for pancreatitis,AML(M2 type based on the French-American-British classifications system).CONCLUSION Direct infiltration of the pancrease by acute leukemia,particularly AML cells,is an infrequent cause of AP.Therefore,although AP is a rare extramedullary infilt-ration characteristic for AML patients,it should be considered when determining the etiology of AP. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC)is a common type of tumor that can metastasize to any organs and sites.However,it is extremely rare for ccRCC to metastasize to the iris.Here,we describe a rare case of iris metastasis from ccRCC with a history of left nephrectomy in 2010.CASE SUMMARY A 62-year-old male was admitted to the hospital due to blurred vision and red eyes,and a mass was found on the iris in the right eye.B-scan ultrasonography revealed a well-bounded high-density lesion at the corner of the anterior chamber at the 3-4 o’clock position.Phacoemulsification with simultaneous intraocular lens implantation and iridocyclectomy was performed in the right eye.The lesion was confirmed to be metastatic ccRCC by histological and immunohistochemical analyses.The patient was still alive at 9 mo after surgical treatment.Ocular metastasis can be an initial sign with a poor prognosis.Timely detection and treatment may improve survival.Clinicians should pay attention to similar metastatic diseases to prevent misdiagnosis leading to missed treatment oppor-tunities.CONCLUSION This report of the characteristics and successful management of a rare case of iris metastasis from ccRCC highlights the importance of a comprehensive medical history,histopathology,immunohistochemistry,and clinical manifestation for successful disease diagnosis. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Peripheral arterial disease(PAD)has become one of the leading causes of disability and death in diabetic patients.Restoring blood supply to the hindlimbs,especially by promoting arteriogenesis,is currently the most effective strategy,in which endothelial cells play an important role.Tongxinluo(TXL)has been widely used for the treatment of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases and extended for diabetes-related vascular disease.AIM To investigate the effect of TXL on diabetic PAD and its underlying mechanisms.METHODS An animal model of diabetic PAD was established by ligating the femoral artery of db/db mice.Laser Doppler imaging and micro-computed tomography(micro-CT)were performed to assess the recovery of blood flow and arteriogenesis.Endothelial cell function related to arteriogenesis and cellular pyroptosis was assessed using histopathology,Western blot analysis,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real-time polymerase chain reaction assays.In vitro,human vascular endothelial cells(HUVECs)and human vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs)were pretreated with TXL for 4 h,followed by incubation in high glucose and hypoxia conditions to induce cell injury.Then,indicators of HUVEC pyroptosis and function,HUVECVSMC interactions and the migration of VSMCs were measured.RESULTS Laser Doppler imaging and micro-CT showed that TXL restored blood flow to the hindlimbs and enhanced arteriogenesis.TXL also inhibited endothelial cell pyroptosis via the reactive oxygen species/nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3/Caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway.In addition,TXL restored endothelial cell functions,including maintaining the balance of vasodilation,acting as a barrier to reduce inflammation,and enhancing endothelial-smooth muscle cell interactions through the Jagged-1/Notch-1/ephrin-B2 signaling pathway.Similar results were observed in vitro.CONCLUSION TXL has a pro-arteriogenic effect in the treatment of diabetic PAD,and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of endothelial cell pyroptosis,restoration of endothelial cell function and promotion of endothelial cell-smooth muscle cell interactions. 展开更多

Exogenous neuropeptide Y has antiepileptic effects; however, the underlying mechanism and optimal administration method for neuropeptide Y are still unresolved. Previous studies have used intracerebroventricular injection of neuropeptide Y into animal models of epilepsy. In this study, a recombinant adeno-associated virus expression vector carrying the neuropeptide Y gene was injected into the lateral ventricle of rats, while the ipsilateral hippocampus was injected with kainic acid to establish the epileptic model. After transfection of neuropeptide Y gene, mossy fiber sprouting in the hippocampal CA3 region of epileptic rats was significantly suppressed, hippocampal synaptophysin (p38) mRNA and protein expression were inhibited, and epileptic seizures were reduced. These experimental findings indicate that a recombinant adeno-associated virus expression vector carrying the neuropeptide Y gene reduces mossy fiber sprouting and inhibits abnormal synaptophysin expression, thereby suppressing post-epileptic synaptic reconstruction. 展开更多

Neuropeptide Y has been shown to inhibit the immunological activity of reactive microglia in the rat cerebral cortex, to reduce N-methyl-D-aspartate current(INMDA) in cortical neurons, and protect neurons. In this study, after primary cultured microglia from the cerebral cortex of rats were treated with lipopolysaccharide, interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α levels in the cell culture medium increased, and mRNA expression of these cytokines also increased. After primary cultured cortical neurons were incubated with the lipopolysaccharide-treated microglial conditioned medium, peak INMDA in neurons increased. These effects of lipopolysaccharide were suppressed by neuropeptide Y. After addition of the neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor antagonist BIBP3226, the effects of neuropeptide Y completely disappeared. These results suggest that neuropeptide Y prevents excessive production of interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α by inhibiting microglial reactivity. This reduces INMDA in rat cortical neurons, preventing excitotoxicity, thereby protecting neurons. 展开更多

They were clinically stable and had the criteria for weaning from the ventilator. Before Spontaneous Breathing Test (SBT) and 30 min or 120 min after SBT, the width of IVC and the number of B-lines in patients were monitored via bedside ultrasound. There were 87 cases of successful weaning as a control group and 19 cases of ventilator failure weaning as a study group. Changes of the width of IVC and the number of B-lines were compared in the different stages of SBT. <strong>Results:</strong> A total of 106 patients were included in this study. There were 87 cases of ventilator successful weaning and 19 cases failure weaning. The weaning success rate was 82.08%. The width of IVC and the number of B-lines in the study group were higher than those in the control group in same stage of SBT, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), and which increased significantly with time. There was no significant difference in the width of IVC and the number of B-lines on the different stage of SBT in the control group (P > 0.05), and significant difference in the study group. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The width of IVC and the number of B-lines monitored by bedside ultrasound can assess the risk of ventilator weaning, it may be caused by cardiopulmonary interaction. 展开更多

Objective To determine the possible protective effects of Jinghuosu,a dietary supplement(DS),on tripterygium glycosides(TG)-induced reproductive system injury in rats and its underlying mechanisms.Methods A reproductive damage model was established in rats by feeding of TGs.Twenty-eight male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table(n=7 in each):control(C)group,model(M)group,DS group and L-carnitine(LC)group.Rats in M,DS and LC groups received 40 mg/kg TGs orally.Starting from the 5th week,after administration of TGs for 4 h every day,rats in DS and LC groups were administered with 2.7 g/kg DS and 0.21 g/kg LC,respectively,for protective treatment over the next 4 weeks.Rats in Group C continued to receive the control treatment.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used for histopathological analysis of rat testicular tissues.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to measure alkaline phosphatase(ALP),lactate dehydrogenase,alcohol dehydrogenase,total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC),superoxide dismutase,glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),and malondialdehyde(MDA)concentrations.Chemiluminescence assay was used to determine the serum testosterone content.Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting were conducted to analyze the expression of genes and proteins related to the testosterone synthesis pathway and the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase 1 antioxidant pathway.Results Oral administration of TGs induced significant increases in the testicular levels of zinc transporter 1 and MDA(P<0.05).On the other hand,sperm concentration,sperm motility,and serum testosterone,serum zinc,testicular zinc,Zrt-,Irt-like protein 1,ALP,luteinizing hormone(LH)receptor,steroidogenic acute regulatory protein,Cytochrome P450 family 11 subfamily A member 1,3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 T-AOC,GSH-Px,nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2,heme oxygenase-1 and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 levels decreased following TGs exposure(P<0.05).All of these phenotypes were evidently reversed by DS(P<0.05).Conclusion DS Jinghuosu protects against TG-induced reproductive system injury in rats,probably by improving zinc homeostasis,enhancing the testosterone synthesis and attenuating oxidative stress. 展开更多

Objective To investigate the potential role of Tongxinluo(TXL)in attenuating myocardial fibrosis after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury(MIRI)in mice.Methods A MIRI mouse model was established by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation for 45 min.According to a random number table,66 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups(n=11 per group):the sham group,the model group,the LY-294002 group,the TXL group,the TXL+LY-294002 group and the benazepril(BNPL)group.The day after modeling,TXL and BNPL were administered by gavage.Intraperitoneal injection of LY-294002 was performed twice a week for 4 consecutive weeks.Echocardiography was used to measure cardiac function in mice.Masson staining was used to evaluate the degree of myocardial fibrosis in mice.Qualitative and quantitative analysis of endothelial mesenchymal transition(EndMT)after MIRI was performed by immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry,respectively.The protein expressions of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1(CD31),α-smoth muscle actin(α-SMA),phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase(PI3K)and phospho protein kinase B(p-AKT)were assessed using Western blot.Results TXL improved cardiac function in MIRI mice,reduced the degree of myocardial fibrosis,increased the expression of CD31 and inhibited the expression ofα-SMA,thus inhibited the occurrence of EndMT(P<0.05 or P<0.01).TXL significantly increased the protein expressions of PI3K and p-AKT(P<0.05 or P<0.01).There was no significant difference between TXL and BNPL group(P>0.05).In addition,the use of the PI3K/AKT pathway-specific inhibitor LY-294002 to block this pathway and combination with TXL intervention,eliminated the protective effect of TXL,further supporting the protective effect of TXL.Conclusion TXL activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to inhibit EndMT and attenuated myocardial fibrosis after MIRI in mice. 展开更多

Activation of the NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome signaling pathway is an important mechanism underlying myocardial pyroptosis and plays an important role in inflammatory damage to myocardial tissue in patients with cardiovascular diseases(CVDs),such as diabetic cardiomyopathy,ischemia/reperfusion injury,myocardial infarction,heart failure and hypertension.Noncoding RNAs(nc RNAs)are important regulatory factors.Many Chinese medicine(CM)compounds,including their effective components,can regulate pyroptosis and exert myocardium-protecting effects.The mechanisms underlying this protection include inhibition of inflammasome protein expression,Toll-like receptor 4–NF-κB signal pathway activation,oxidative stress,endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS),and mixed lineage kinase 3 expression and the regulation of silent information regulator 1.The NLRP3 protein is an important regulatory target for CVD prevention and treatment with CM.Exploring the effects of the interventions mediated by CM and the related mechanisms provides new ideas and perspectives for CVD prevention and treatment. 展开更多

These two conditions share common risk factors including hypertension. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is strongly associated with both hypertension and cognitive impairment. In this review, we identify the pathophysiological changes in CSVD that are caused by hypertension and further explore the relationship between CSVD and cognitive impairment. Data Sources: We searched and scanned the PubMed database for recently published literatures up to December 2017. We used the keywords of"hypertension", "cerebral small vessel disease", "'white matter lesions", "enlarged perivascular spaces", "lacunar infarcts", "cerebral microbleeds", and "cognitive impairment" in the database of PubMed. Study Selection: Articles were obtained and reviewed to analyze the hypertension-induced pathophysiological changes that occur in CSVD and the correlation between CSVD and cognitive impairment. Results: In recent years, studies have demonstrated that hypertension-related changes (e.g., small vascular lesions, inflarnmator3, reactions, hypoperfusion, oxidative stress, damage to autoregulatory processes and the blood-brain barrier, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy) can occur over time in cerebral small vessels, potentially leading to lower cognitive function when blood pressure (BP) control is poor or lacking. Both isolated and co-occurrent CSVD can lead to cognitive deterioration, and this effect may be attributable to a dysfunction in either the cholinergic system or the functionality of cortical and subcortical tracts. Conclusions: We explore the currently available evidence about the hypertensive vasculopathy and inflammatory changes that occur in CSVD. Both are vital prognostic indicators of the development of cognitive impairment. Future studies should be performed to validate the relationship between BP levels and CSVD progression and between the nunabers, volumes, and anatomical locations of CSVD and cognitive impairment. 展开更多

Objective: As a vascular risk factor, carotid atherosclerosis is crucial to cognitive impairment. While carotid intima-media thickness, carotid artery plaque, and carotid stenosis can reflect carotid atherosclerosis in different stages, this review aimed to explore researches on the role of carotid intima-media thickness, carotid artery plaque, and carotid stenosis in the progress of cognitive impairment in nonstroke patients and tried to illustrate the possible mechanisms. Data Sources: We searched the PubMed database for recently published research articles up to July 2017, with the key words of "carotid atherosclerosis," "carotid intima-media thickness," "carotid plaque," "carotid stenosis," "nonstroke," and "cognitive impairment."Study Selection: Articles were obtained and reviewed to analyze the role of carotid atherosclerosis such as carotid intima-thickness, carotid plaque, and carotid stenosis in the progress of cognitive impairment in nonstroke patients and the possible mechanisms. Results: In recent years, most studies proved that by evaluating carotid atherosclerosis with ultrasonography, carotid atherosclerosis accounts for the development of cognitive decline in nonstroke patients. Carotid atherosclerosis not only impairs the subtle general cognitive function but also decreases the specific domains of cognitive function, such as memory, motor function, visual perception, attention, and executive function. But, it is still controversial. The possible mechanisms of cognitive impairment in nonstroke patients with carotid atherosclerosis can be classified as systemic global cerebrovascular function, small-vessel diseases, and the mixed lesions. Conclusions: Carotid atherosclerosis can be used to predict the risk of cognitive impairment. Furthermore, diagnosing and treating carotid atherosclerosis at early stage might help clinicians prevent and treat vascular cognitive impairment in nonstroke patients. 展开更多

The relationship between plasma lipids and cognitive function is complex and controversial. Due to the increasing life expectancy of the population, there is an urgent need to control vascular risk factors and to identify therapies to prevent and treat both cognitive impairment and dementia. Here, we reviewed the eff'ects of plasma lipids and statins on cognitive function. Data Sources: We searched the PubMed database for research articles published through November 2017 with key words including "plasma lipids," "hyperlipidemia," "hypercholesterolemia," "statins," and "cognition function." Study Selection: Articles were retrieved and reviewed to analyze the effects of plasma lipids and statins on cognitive function and the mechanisms underlying these effects. Results: Many studies have examined the relationship between plasma lipids and cognitive function, but no definitive conclusions can be drawn. The mechanisms involved may include blood-brain barrier injury, the influence on small blood vessels in the brain, the influence on amyloid deposition, and a neuroprotective effect. To date, most studies of statins and cognition have been observational, with few randomized controlled trials. Therefore, finn conclusions regarding whether mid- or long-term statin use affects cognition function and dementia remain elusive. However, increasing concern exists that statins may be a causative factor for cognitive problems. These adverse eff'ects appear to be rare and likely represent a yet-to-be-defined vulnerability in susceptible individuals. Conclusions: The association between plasma lipids and cognition, the mechanism of the influence of plasma lipids on cognitive function, and the association between statins and cognitive function are complex issues and currently not fully understood. Future research aimed at identifying the mechanisms that underlie the effects of plasma lipids and statins on cognition will not only provide important insight into the causes and interdependencies of cognitive impairment and dementia, but also inspire novel strategies for treating and preventing these cognitive disorders. 展开更多

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of Governor Vessel-regulating and brain-unblocking acupuncture on post-stroke depression. Methods: A total of 70 eligible cases were randomly allocated into an observation group and a control group according to the random number table. Patients in the observation group were treated with Governor Vessel-regulating and brain-unblocking acupuncture, whereas patients in the control group were treated with oral Escitalopram Oxalate tablet. The treatment lasted for 8 weeks. The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), Montgomery Asberg depression rating scale (MADRS), and Barthel index (BI) were used to evaluate the patients' condition before, 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment respectively. In addition, adverse reactions were also recorded. Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, the HAMD and MADRS scores were significantly decreased in both groups (P〈0.05); and the BI scores were significantly increased in both groups (P〈0.05). There was no between-group statistical difference in HAMD score (P〉0.05); the MADRS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P〈0.05) and the BI score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P〈0.05). After 8 weeks of treatment, there were no between-group statistical differences in all aspects (P〉0.05); however, the adverse reactions in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group. Conclusion: The Governor Vessel-regulating and brain-unblocking acupuncture is safe and effective for post-stroke depression and can obtain similar efficacy as Escitalopram Oxalate tablet. In addition, it can fast alleviate core symptoms of depression and improve the activities of daily living (ADL) and has fewer adverse reactions. 展开更多

Objective: To observe the differences in analgesic effect of moxibustion at different intervention times on dysmenorrhea rats and explore its effect mechanism.Methods: Forty-five female Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank control group(group A), model group(group B), pre-moxibustion group(group C), instant moxibustion group(group D) and pre-instant moxibustion group(group E),with 9 rats in each group. Cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea models were established. In group C,mild moxibustion on "Shenque(神阙 CV 8) " and"Guanyuan(关元 CV 4)" was carried out from the time after modeling on the 8 th day for 3 consecutive days. In group D, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods with group C after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day. In group E, mild moxibustion was given as the same methods from the time after modeling on the 8 th day to that after injection with oxytocin on the 11 th day for 4 consecutive days. The writhing behavior and the changes in levels of ET-1 and NO in uterine tissues of rats with dysmenorrhea in each group were observed.Results: Comparison of the latent period: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) min in group B,the latent period of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32) min,group D(11.78 ± 1.30) min and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) min obviously prolonged(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01). Compared with group D, the latent period of group E obviously prolonged(p 0.01).Comparison of the writhing times: compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the writhing times of rats in group C(9.67 ± 1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) reduced(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the writhing times of rats in group D and group E reduced(both p 0.01). Compared with group D, the writhing times in group E reduced(p 0.05). Comparison of the total writhing score:compared with(4.38 ± 1.06) in group B,the total writhing score of rats in group C(9.67±1.32),group D(11.78 ± 1.30) and group E(15.00 ± 1.22) decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the total writhing score of rats in group D and group E decreased(both p 0.01). Compared with group D,the total writhing score of rats in group E decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of ET-1 level: compared with(4.80 ± 0.47) in group A,the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(7.57±0.69) significantly increased(P 0.01). Compared with group B, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(6.20 ±0.50),group D(5.67 ±0.29) and group E(5.16±0.33) obviously decreased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group D and group E obviously decreased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group Eobviously decreased(p 0.05). Comparison of NO level: compared with(6.63±1.83) in group A, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group B(1.62 ±0.58) significantly decreased(p 0.01). Compared with group B, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group C(3.60±0.59),group D(4.77 ±0.67) and group E(5.99±0.63) obviously increased(all p 0.01). Compared with group C,the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group Dand group E obviously increased(p 0.05, p 0.01). Compared with group D, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group E obviously increased(p 0.01).Conclusion: The analgesic effect of mild moxibustion at different intervention times on cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea rats was different, which was the most significant in pre-instant moxibustion group. One of the mechanisms of action may be related with the adjustment of abnormal levels of ET-1 and NO. 展开更多

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlativity between the changes of blood measures related to blood stasis blocking collaterals and gene expression levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme(ACE)and ACE2 ofrenal cortex in diabetic rats with stasis blocking collaterals syndrome, as well as the effectof stasis removing and collaterals dredging.METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into normal control group(C group),high-carbohydrate-fat control group(H group) and streptozotocin(STZ)-injecting group. The diabeticrats were induced from rats in the STZ-injecting groupby high-carbohydrate-fat diet combined with STZ intraperitoneal injection, with sustained high-carbohydrate-fat diet fed afterwards, and were further divided into model group(M group)and Chinese medicine of stasis removing and collaterals dredging group(Z group). Rats in the Z group were fed with stasis-removing-and-collaterals-dredging herbal granule suspension intragastrically daily for 16 weeks, while drinking water of corresponding volume was administrated to the rats in other groups. At the end of the 16 th week after successful establishment of models, the ultrastructures of glomeruli in different groups were detected by a transmission electron microscopy; and blood measures related to blood stasis blocking collaterals, including lipid profile and blood viscosity measures, were tested, as well as the relative gene expressions of ACE and ACE2.RESULTS: Changes in ultrastructures of glomeruli in the M group were characterized by lack of clarity in structure and occasional thickening of glomerular basement membrane and extensive fusion in foot processes. The correlation analysis showed that there were positive correlations between lipid profile, blood viscosity, and the ACE mRNA expression levels in the M group(P<0.05), except for cholesterol. And except for triglyceride, the blood measures were in negative correlation with the ACE2 mRNA expression levels in the M group(P<0.05).Compared with the C and H groups, the lipid profile, plasma viscosity and blood viscosity were significantly higher(P<0.01). All the above-mentioned measures were significantly improved in the Z group rats(P<0.05). ACE mRNA expression was significantly higher in the M group thanin the C group(P<0.05). ACE2 mRNA level was significantly lower in the M group than in the C and H groups(P<0.01)and its levelin the Z group was higher than that in the M group(P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Blood measuresrelated to blood stasis blocking collaterals had positive linear correlations with ACE mRNAexpression and negative linear correlations with ACE2 mRNA expression in the M group. Chinese recipe of stasis removing and collaterals dredging could play a renal protecting role for diabetic rats by reducing lipid profile and blood viscosity, down-regulating ACE mRNA expression and up-regulating ACE2 mRNA expression. 展开更多
