Guanylin family, described in recent 10 years, is a series of small peptides (including guanylin, uroguanylin and lymphoguanylin) with structural and functional similarities to heat-stable enterotoxins (STs) elaborated by various pathogenic bacteria. They are abundance of cysteines and are endogenous activators of guanylyl cyclase-C (GC-C) receptors. Immunoreactive guanylin family peptides are localized in many human organs and tissues, especially in gastrointestinal tract and kidney, and play an important role in regulation of water and salt homeostasis. Recent studies showed that the mRNA levels of guanylin family peptides were down-regulated in colorectal cancers; oral intake of uroguanylin might suppress polyp formation in Apc(Min/+) mouse, and ~(111)In-labeled-ST peptide analog might specifically target human colon cancers. These evidences highlight that guanylin family may have a potential application in diagnosis and therapy effects of colorectal cancers.

Objective To assess the sleep disturbance in patients with early-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease of different clinical subgroups. Methods Four hundred and eighty-six Chinese PD patients were selected as our subjects. Their clinical data including demographics,a broad spectrum of motor variables and non motor features,including tremor,rigidity,hypokinesia,PIGD,motor phenotypes,disease progression,fatigue, constipation,apathy,depression,global cognitive function and L-dopa complications were collected and analyzed by cluster analysis. The PD subtypes were classified by using k-means cluster analysis according to the clinical data. The cluster analysis indicated four main subtypes:subtype 1 was mildly affected in all domains;subtype 2 was severely affected on all motor and non motor symptoms;subtype 3 showed intermediate severity in most domains;subtype 4 characterized by short disease duration and rapid disease progression. Then compared the sleep disturbance among different subtypes with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index( PSQI). Results Two hundred and thirty-six cases(48. 6%)were identified as suffering from sleep disturbance. Of which,female PD with sleep disturbance rate was 55. 1%( 130/236 )and male was 44. 9%( 106/236 ). Female was prone to develop sleep disturbance at early stage than male. PSQI scores in subtype 1,2,3 and 4 were(6. 09 ± 3. 72),(9. 36 ± 4. 24), (7. 82 ±4. 35)and(9. 09 ± 4. 73)respectively and the difference was significant(F =14. 503,P =0. 000) . Conclusion Sleep disturbance occurs frequently in patients with early-stage Parkinson's disease and exist clinical heterogeneity.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of Parkinson's disease(PD)with mild cognitive impairment and mode of cerebral glucose metabolism. Methods One hundred and one non-dementia PD patients were assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)and divided into the PD with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI)group and the PD non-cognitive impairment(PD-NC)group. The demographic details, clinical features,Unified Pakinson's Disease Rating Scale(UPDRS), Hohen-Yahr rank and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)were compared between the two groups. Patients in Hohen-Yahr stage 1 underwent positron emission tomography(PET)with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose(18F-FDG)to show glucose metabolism. Results Seventy-seven(74. 3%)PD patients had mild cognitive impairment PD-MCI group had higher score in UPDRS 1st(mentation ,behavior and mood),2nd (activity of daily living)and 3rd(motor examination)subscale(2.48 ± 1.51,10. 71 ± 4. 88,22.31 ± 12.70)than PD-NC group(1.65 ± 1.29,8.15 ±2. 20,15.92 ±7.56,P <0.05)respectively. The FDG metabolism ratio of frontal cortex,parietal cortex and occipital cortex decreased more significantly in PD-MCI than in PD-NC(P < 0.05).Conclusions The risk factors of mild cognitive impairment in PD include moter dysfunction, clinical stage and depression. The metabolic dysfunction of cortex may be the mechanism of mild cognitive impairment in PD.
