DNA甲基化作为表观遗传调控机制,是疾病潜在的诊断标志物及治疗靶点,其可通过参与平滑肌细胞增殖、参与脂质形成、调控炎症反应及参与AS危险因素的形成等作用,影响动脉粥样硬化的进程.DNA甲基化的微观表象可以揭示"天人相应""阴阳自和"等中医经典理论,而中药复方及单体通过调控DNA甲基化可调节特定基因的表达,在稳定动脉斑块、增强抗凝疗效、保护血管内皮细胞等方面发挥作用,延缓及改善动脉粥样硬化的发展.
扩张型心肌病(DCM)是以左室、右室或双心腔扩大和舒缩功能障碍为主要特征的复合型心肌病,具有高发病率、高死亡率、逐渐年轻化等特点.DCM可引起心律失常、严重心力衰竭,甚至猝死,但目前尚缺乏有效的治疗方案,PCM病死率居高不下,是心血管系统疾病一大治疗难题.长链非编码RNA(lncRNAs)不参与或很少参与蛋白质编码,研究发现,lncRNAs在DCM发生发展过程中扮演着重要角色.为寻求更好的治疗方案,目前DCM研究热点转向基因分子水平,探索相关临床诊断标志物和治疗靶点.本文就lncRNAs参与调控DCM作用机制及研究进展进行综述,旨在为DCM的预防和治疗提供新的方向.
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a type of composite cardiomyopathy characterized by left ventricular, right ventricular or double ventricular enlargement and diastolic dysfunction caused by genetic and non-genetic causes, with a high incidence, High mortality, gradual rejuvenation, etc., are common types of cardiomyopathy. With the progressive development of the disease, it can cause arrhythmia, severe heart failure, thromboembolism, and even sudden death. Currently, there is no effective treatment plan, and the high mortality rate is a major problem in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Long-chain non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNAs with a molecular mass of more than 200 bt and which are not involved or rarely involved in protein coding. Studies have shown that lncRNAs play an important role in the occurrence and development of DCM. Finding relevant clinical diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets is the current research focus in the field of DCM. This article reviews the mechanism and research progress of lncRNAs in the occurrence and development of DCM, and aims to provide a new direction for the prevention and treatment of DCM.

Objective:To compare the differences and advantages of CT angiography (CTA) and color Doppler ultrasound in the imaging evaluation of renal artery of cynomolgus monkey. Methods:Collected nine of the cynomolgus monkey which were accorded with the inclusive criteria,respectively,testing with CTA and color Doppler ultrasound. Two groups of images were an-alyzed and compared,and the diameter of the renal artery was measured. Results:CTA and color Doppler ultrasound images could clearly show the renal artery and its main artery branches. Measurement of left renal artery diameter (CTA:2.83 ±0.49 mm;color Doppler Ultrasound:2.35±0.40 mm),P>0.05 (P=0.053),the difference was not statistically significant. The right renal artery diameter (CTA:2.85±0.56 mm;color Doppler ultrasound:2.37±0.29 mm),P>0.05(P=0.052),the difference was not statisti-cally significant. Conclusion:CTA and color Doppler ultrasound can be used to measure the diameter of the renal artery of the cynomolgus monkey,the difference is not statistically significant. Those two imaging methods are comparable,but each has its advantages and disadvantages.

This paper was aimed to study the effectiveness and safety of TanshinoneⅡA Sulfonate Sodium Injection in the treatment of unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Keywords such as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, coronary heart disease, unstable angina, chest impediment, cardialgia, TanshinoneⅡA Sulfonate Sodium Injection, tanshinone injection, tanshinoneⅡA sulfonate, unstable, angina, randomized controlled trial (RCT), and clinical trials were searched in CNKI, VIP, Wanfang and Pubmed from the construction of database until October 31st, 2014. The inclusion criteria were RCT with clinical data integrity, similar literature research methods, and good balance between groups. The Jadad score method was used to carry out quality assessment. Meta-analysis was conducted by RevMan5.2 software. Count data was processed by odds ratio (OR). Measurement data was processed with the weighted mean differences (WMD). The 95% confidence interval (CI) was also calculated. The heterogeneity test result of included literatures was P > 0.05. The fixed effects model was used in the meta-analysis. On the other hand, random effect model was used. For the analysis results of more than 10 papers, the funnel plot was used in the analysis of publication bias. The results showed that a total of 34 studies were included. The results of meta-analysis suggested that the total efficiency of conventional treatment plus TanshinoneⅡA Sulfonate Sodium Injection for UAP was [OR = 3.83, 95%CI (3.11, 4.71),P < 0.000 01]. The electrocardiogram improvement rate was [OR = 3.34, 95%CI (2.61,4.28),P < 0.000 01]; plasma viscosity improvement was [WMD = -0.20, 95%CI (-0.38, -0.03),P = 0.03]; high shear viscosity of whole blood improvement was [WMD = -0.67, 95%CI (-0.85, -0.50),P < 0.000 01]; C-reactive protein improvement was [WMD = -2.66, 95%CI (-3.31, -2.00),P < 0.000 01]. It was concluded that the conventional treatment plus TanshinoneⅡA Sulfonate Sodium Injection for UAP had certain clinical effect with no obvious adverse reaction. However, due to the poor quality of the existing research literatures, the results should be further verified by large amount of high quality RCTs.
原发性高血压是诱发中风、心肌梗死、充血性心力衰竭和动脉瘤破裂的危险因素,也是严重危害健康的心血管疾病之一.2013年世界健康日把高血压作为全球关注的重大公共卫生问题.高血压在全球范围内呈不断增长的趋势,在全球每年940万的死亡人数中,由高血压引起的占13%,同时高血压的致残率为7%[1].而高血压与内皮功能障碍关系密切,内皮损伤与恢复关系对心血管事件的发病起到重要作用[2].高血压导致内皮损伤,引起内皮功能障碍、血管壁重塑,这种血管重塑过程使外周阻力升高,对血管内皮的损伤进一步加重,构成恶性循环.内皮祖细胞是一种多能于细胞,是内皮细胞的前体,内皮祖细胞数量的下降及其功能(主要是参与出生后缺血组织的血管发生和血管损伤后的修复)受损是高血压发病的一个重要因素,这一因素已被相关研究证实[3].因此,本文对近年来内皮祖细胞与高血压关系的研究进展作一综述.
