[Q]: Context: We quantitatively evaluated the collagen-to-smooth muscle tissue matrix ratio in ureteropelvic junction obstruction, and compared the ratio with the degree of obstruction, patient age and postoperative renal recovery.', "We analyzed histological sections from 65 patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction and 6 normal controls. Morphological and functional grading systems were adapted to determine the degree of renal obstruction. To examine smooth muscle and collagen tissue, sections were stained using Masson's trichrome. Two distinct populations of collagen versus smooth muscle were identified and the tissue matrix ratio was calculated by color image analysis.", 'The mean tissue matrix ratio plus or minus standard deviation was 1.32+/-0.79 in all patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction but only 0.30+/-0.10 in normal controls (p <0.0001). It appeared that the lower the tissue matrix ratio, the better the improvement in postoperative hydronephrosis (r = -0.50, p = 0.0001). Better recovery of renal function after pyeloplasty was observed with a decrease in the tissue matrix ratio (r = -0.43, p = 0.0004). We divided patients according to the tissue matrix ratio into groups 1--ratio 1 or less, 2--greater than 1 to 1.5 and 3--greater than 1.5 to determine a more detailed and clinically applicable correlation of tissue matrix ratio with postoperative renal functional changes. Better improvement in postoperative renal function was observed in group 1 than in group 3 (p = 0.002). Also, the tissue matrix ratio increased with patient age (r = 0.33, p = 0.007).
Answer: Since our data represent an objective and quantitative parameter associated with ureteropelvic junction obstruction, we believe that our findings may help to predict the prognosis after pyeloplasty.

[Q]: Context: We analyzed the involvement of thromboxane (TX) A2/prostaglandin (PG) H2 (TP) receptor in ischemia-induced neovascularization in mice.', 'Unilateral hindlimb ischemia was induced by right femoral artery ligature in male C57BL/6J mice (n=7 per group). Animals were then treated with or without TP receptor antagonist (S18886, 5 or 10 mg/kg per day; ramatroban, 10 mg/kg per day) or aspirin (30 mg/kg per day) in drinking water for 21 days. Hindlimb ischemia raised plasma level of TXB2, the stable metabolite of TXA2, by 4.7-fold. This increase was blocked by aspirin treatment whereas S18886 (5 or 10 mg/kg per day) had no effect. However, neither S 18886 nor aspirin affected postischemic neovascularization. We next assessed the putative involvement of TXA2 signaling in angiotensin II (Ang II) proangiogenic pathway. Ang II (0.3 mg/kg per day) enhanced TXB2 plasma levels by 2.6-fold over that of control (P<0.01). Ang II-induced TXB2 upregulation was reduced by cotreatment with Ang II type I receptor antagonist (candesartan, 20 mg/kg per day). Angiographic score, capillary number, and foot perfusion were improved by 1.7-, 1.7-, and 1.4-fold, respectively, in Ang II-treated mice compared with controls (P<0.05). Ang II proangiogenic effect was associated with a 1.6-fold increase in VEGF-A protein content (P<0.05) and a 1.4-fold increase in the number of Mac-3-positive cells (ie, macrophages) in ischemic areas (P<0.05). Interestingly, treatments with TP receptor antagonists or aspirin hampered the proangiogenic effects of Ang II.
Answer: Endogenous activation of TXA2 receptor by eicosanoids did not modulate spontaneous neovascularization in the setting of ischemia. Conversely, TXA2 signaling is involved in Ang II-induced AT1-dependent vessel growth.

[Q]: Context: To investigate how affects electrical-conduction function following myocardial infarction (MI) in rats.', 'Thirty SD rats of either sex (220-250 g) were anesthetized using chlorine hydrate and were randomly divided into three groups: control group, MI group and transplantation group. The field potential (FP) morphology and activation-conduction duration were recorded with microeletrode array techniques.', 'The MEA recorded clear FP morphology. Activation-conduction duration was (6.5 ± 2.12) ms in the control group, (17.5 ± 3.54) ms in the MI group, and (9.13 ± 1.31) ms in the transplantation group.
Answer: EHT transplantation can improve electrical-conduction and function of MI rats.
