Objective To investigate ACEI ( benazepril ) and tranilast exert renoprotective properties in diabetic nephropathy( DN) through the inhibition of thioredoxin( Trx) . Methods Forty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group,tranilast group and benazepril group (n=10 each).Normal control group was fed with normal diet. Other groups were fed with high-glucose high-fat diet to make DN models. Rats in model control, tranilast, and benazepril groups were fed with normal diet,400 mg??kg-1??d-1 tranilast plus normal diet,and 10 mg??kg-1??d-1 benazepril plus normal diet,respectively,via oral gavage for 12 weeks.The 24-hour proteinuria,blood glucose(BG),blood urea nitrogen (BUN),serum creatinine ( Scr) and renal pathology changes were detected. Expression of Trx was measured by Western-blot. Results The 24 h urine protein, BG, BUN, Scr, kidney/body weight, and glomerular sclerosis index were significantly decreased in tranilast group and benazepril group,as compaired with model control group ( P<0.05) ,but there was no statistical difference between the two drug groups (P>0.05).Both tranilast and benazepril can reduce renal pathological changes,and can increase the expression of Trx of DN rats, but benazepril had a more significant effect on increasing Trx expression. Conclusion Both tranilast and benazepril have renoprotective function in DN, and benazepril is more effective than tranilast in delaying the progression of diabetic nephropathy by increasing Trx expression and decreasomg oxidative stress.

Objective To analyze the molecular characteristics and genetic origin of a novel avian influenza A H7N4 virus casuing a case of human infection in China. Methods Specimens were collected from the patient and chickens and ducks kept by the patient and neighbours and then detected by real-time quantitative PCR. The original specimens and virus isolates were analyzed by next-generation sequencing technology to obtain viral whole-genome sequences. Pairwise sequence alignments and phylogenetic analysis were performed by BLASTs,ClustalX and MEGA 6. 1 softwares. Results In January 2018, a human case infected with avian influenza A H7N4 virus was confirmed. Seven H7N4 viruses were isolated from speci-mens collected from chicken and ducks kept in the patient`s backyard. H7N4 virus was a novel reassortant vi-rus with all eight gene fragments derived from wild waterfowl in Eurasia. HA protein contained a single basic amino acid residue R in cleavage site, suggesting that H7N4 virus was low pathogenic. The receptor-binding sites of HA had QSG at 226-228 residues, which indicated that the virus retained avian-type receptor speci-ficity (SAα2-3Gal). Different from H7N4 viruses in avian, the virus isolated from the patient had substitu-tion at position 627 ( E→K) in PB2 protein, which might increase its adaptation in human host. Conclusion This study reported a case of human infection with a novel reassortant avian influenza A H7N4 virus, which revealed that the traditional backyard breeding models might facilitate cross-species transmission of avian in-fluenza viruses in southern China.
