Methods: In 18 healthy men, the seminal sperm motility and HSP90 levels were studied before and after cryopreservation using SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and computerized image analysis. Results: The sperm motility declined significantly after cryopreservation (P<0.01). The average grey level and the integrated grey level of sperm HSP90 before cooling were 34.1±3.2 and 243.0±21.6, respectively, while those after thawing were 23.2±2.5 and 105.7±28.5, respectively. Both parameters were decreased significantly (P<0.01). No HSP90 was found in the seminal plasma before and after cryopreservation. Conclusion: HSP90 in human spermatozoa was decreased substantially after cryopreservation. This may result from protein degradation, rather than leakage into the seminal plasma.展开更多

However antihypertensive treatments are not always useful to regress or prevent LVH. Thoroughly understanding the mechanisms will help to find new therapeutic targets that prevent or reverse left ventricular hypertrophy. A number of regulators and molecular signaling pathways have been shown to be involved in the hypertrophic process, such as angiotensin II, heat shock proteins 90, microRNAs, TRPC, mTOR, HDAC and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. Therefore, other treatments, such as G1 cyclin antagonists, HSP90 inhibitor, Rho-kinase inhibitor, calcineurin blockers, CS866, statins, scutellarin, and aldosterone antagonist could prevent left ventricular hypertrophy.展开更多
