Physical activity is limited in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and higher level of physical activity may result in less risk of death, milder depression or ahypnosis, less fatigue and better quality of life. Physical activity may relate with many factors. MHD patients may be benefited from exercise to improve the physical activity, mainly with aerobic exercise and resistance training during hemodialysis. Nurses can do more in health education and direction of exercise for MHD patients.

Users' cognition and information retrieval are faced with great challenges in ubiquitous knowledge environ-ment. The influence of cognitive factors such as personality traits, cognitive style and ability, knowledge structure and ascribed methods on users' information retrieval behaviors was thus analyzed. It was pointed out that different cognitive factors could influence the retrieval, judgment and absorption of its results,users' satisfaction and continuous use in ubiquitous knowledge environment,with suggestions put forward from the aspects of information retrieval education, information service and information users for improving the users ' knowledge system in knowledge assimilating process by working out effective retrieval strategies using the advantages of cognition.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common gastrointestinal disease and its incidence is increased in recent years in China.As the main treatment of GERD, proton pump inhibitors (PPI) has stable effects and high safety in long-term application.However, around 30% GERD patients had poor symptom control under standard PPI treatment, even developed into refractory GERD, seriously affecting the quality of life.Therefore, the treatment of GERD is a difficult clinical problem and multiple therapeutic modalities have emerged, including drug therapy, endoscopic treatment and surgery.In this paper, we reviewed the advances in study on treatment of refractory GERD.

To study the expression of herpes simplex virus type 2 latency-associated transcript (LAT) open reading frame 1 (ORF1) and its anti-apoptosis function induced by actinomycin D in Vero cells. The recombinant plasmid pEGFP-ORF1 was constructed and transfected into Vero cells, and the expression of ORF1 was identified by RT-PCR. The changes of Vero cells morphology induced by actinomycin D were observed by fluorescence microscopy, Hochest33258 fluorescence staining. Cells viability was evaluated by MTT assay and cells apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. Double digestion and sequencing confirmed the pEGFP-ORF1 was constructed successfully, RT-PCR showed that the target gene was highly expressed in Vero cells. Hochest33258 staining reaveals that Vero cells transfected with pEGFP-ORF1 and induced apoptosis by actinomycin D had no changes in morphology. MTT assay showed that the viabilities of Vero cells transfected with recombinant plasmid pEGFP-ORF1 and induced apoptosis by actinomycin D has no statistically significant difference compared with the untreated normal control group (P > 0.05), but remarkable higher than Vero cells transfected with empty plasmid pEGFP-C2 and induced apoptosis by actinomycin D, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Flow cytometry assay shows that the cells apoptosis rate had no significant difference between pEGFP-ORF1 group and the normal group, but the cells apoptosis rate ofpEGFP-ORF1 was lower than the pEGFP-C2 group. HSV-2 LAT ORF1 gene can be expressed in Vero cells and can protect Vero cells from apoptosis induced by actinomycin D.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the anti-tumor activities of WX-127-07,a new microtubule-tar-geting agent invitroand probe its molecular mechanism. METHODS The well-known microtubule-targe-ting anti-tumor drugs taxol,vincristine and anti-gout drug colchicine were used as positive controls. The anti-proliferation activity was examined in five different cell lines after treatment with WX-127-07(0.3 -300 nmol·L-1 )for 72 h by SRB assay. The cell cycle arrest profile was assayed by flow cytometry. The multiparameters of cytotoxicity,cell morphology,apoptosis and different signaling pathways related to tumorigenesis and inflammation were analyzed using the high content analysis platform. Tubulin tryptic digestion and competition inhibition assay for colchicine or vinblastine site were used to confirm the bind-ing site in microtubules at a molecular level. RESULTS All the tested compounds obviously inhibited the growth of A549,HepG2,HeLa,HLF and HUVEC cells. The lC50 values of WX-127-07 were 4.47±0.05, 5.18±0.08,4.90±0.19,4.10±0.16 and(5.04±0.08)nmol·L-1 respectively,lower than those of colchicine〔the lC50 values were 21. 17 ± 1. 22,14. 19 ± 0. 53,43. 80 ± 1. 64,145. 89 ± 10. 97 and( 27. 67 ± 1.79)nmol·L-1 ,respectively〕and those of vincristine〔the lC50 values were 16.51±0.36,16.76±0.33, 27.80±2.75,43.80±1.48 and(9.15±0.78)nmol·L-1 ,respectively〕,but were similar to or lower than those of taxol〔the lC50 values were 10. 68 ± 0. 61,12. 86 ± 0. 25,4. 81 ± 0. 61,102. 07 ± 15. 17 and( 3. 04 ± 0.12)nmol·L-1 ,respectively〕. High content multi-parameter analysis revealed that WX-127-07 induced a concentration-dependent microtubular depolymerization(P=0.0075)with the same pattern as colchicine and vincristine,but at a lower concentration. Both WX-127-07 and positive drugs could induce cell cycle arrest in A549 cells,increase nuclear membrane permeability and early signs of apoptosis in HepG2 cells,but neither cancer related pathways nor inflammation related pathways were affected. Microtubular competition inhibition assay showed that WX-127-07 inhibited the binding of colchicine with tubulin(P =0.0259). Tryptic digestion of tubulin-WX-127-07 premixture showed a similar electrophoretic band to that of tubulin-colchicine premixture. CONCLUSION WX-127-07 is a novel microtubule-depolymerizing agent with anti-proliferation activity and acting on the colchicine binding site.

Aim To investigate the role of autophagy and its mechanism in Raji cell death induced by arse-nic trioxide. Methods Transmission electron micros-copy ( SEM) and MDC fluorescence staining were used to observe autophagy. MTT colorimetry was employed to assay the cellular proliferating activity. Cell apopto-sis and cell cycle analysis were performed using FITC-Annexin-V/PI double staining and flow cytometry ( FCM) . The expressions of LC3 and the conversion of LC3-I to LC3-II were measured by western bloting. The expression of bcl-2 mRNA and p53 mRNA were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain re-action ( RT-PCR ) . Results Arsenic trioxide could obviously inhibit the proliferation of Raji cells, arrest the cells at G2/M phase and induce apoptosis. Mean-while, arsenic trioxide markedly inhibited the expres-sion of bcl-2 mRNA and enhanced the expression of p53 mRNA in Raji cells. Arsenic trioxide also induced autophagy synchronously which paralleled with the in-duction of apoptosis in Raji cells, and 3-MA, an auto-phagy inhibitor, was able to reverse the arsenic triox-ide-activated autophagic activity, up-regulate bcl-2, down-regulated p53 expression and suppress the lethal effect of arsenic trioxide on Raji cells to reduce their sensitivity to arsenic trioxide. In contrast, the Rapamy-cin, an autophagy inducer, possessed the completely opposite effects on Raji cells compared with 3-MA. Conclusions The apoptosis and autophagic cell death are coexistent in arsenic trioxide-triggered death of Raji lymphoma cells, and Bcl-2 and p53 may play a key regulating role in this process.
