Objective To study the therapeutic effects of combined use of laparoscopic cholecystetomy and endoscopic sphincterotomy for cholecystolithiasis with secondary choledocholithiasis.Methods Thirty-five patients were diagnosed as cholecystolithiasis with secondary choledocholithiasis by B-ultrasonography and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography.Of them,in 28 cases,laparoscopic cholecystetomy was performed first,and ERCP and endoscopic sphincterotomy were done one week later;in 7 cases,endoscopic sphincterotomy were performed before laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Results The outcome of all the thirty-five cases was satisfactory without severe complications or conversion into open procedure.Conclusions The method of combined laparoscopic cholecystomy and endoscopic sphincterotomy,for cholecystolithiasis with secondy choledocholithiasis,especially for cases in whom the diameter of the common bile duct stone is ≤1cm,can give good therapeutic results and has advantages of minimal invasiveness,few complications and quick recovery.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the hippocampal neuron-protective mechanism of hydrogen in a rat model of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration(OGD/R)and mito-chondrial autophagy.Methods Hippocampal neurons isolated from healthy Sprague-Dawley rats(24 h af-ter birth)were cultured in vitro,seeded in polylysine-coated 6-well plates at a density of 7×105 cells/well and then divided into 5 groups(n＝30 each)using a random number table method: control group(C group),OGD/R group,OGD/R+H2 group,OGD/R plus 3-methyladenine(3-MA)group(OGD/R+3-MA group),and OGD/R plus H2 plus 3-MA group(OGD/R+H2+3-MA group).The cells were cultured for 24 h in normal culture atmosphere(75％N2-20％O2-5％CO2)in group C,and cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation for 2 h followed by O2-glucose supply for 24 h to establish the model of OGD/R injury in OGD/R,OGD/R+H2,OGD/R+3-MA and OGD/R+H2+3-MA groups.The cells were cultured for 24 h in a hydrogen-rich incubator(60％H2-10％O2-5％CO2-25％N2)after establishing the model in group OGD/R+H2.Autophagy inhibitor 3-MA 10 mmol/L was added,and then cultured for 24 h in normal culture atmosphere after establishing the model in group OGD/R+3-MA.Autophagy inhibitor 3-MA 10 mmol/L was added,and then cultured for 24 h in hydrogen-rich incubator after establishing the model in group OGD/R+H2+3-MA.The cell survival rate was measured using MTT assay.DCFH-DA fluorescent probe was applied for determination of reactive oxygen species(ROS)activity.The mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using a JC-10 assay kit.The neuronal apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,and apoptosis rate was calculated.The expression of mitophagy-related protein microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3),PINK1 and Parkin was determined by Western blot,and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio was calculated.Results Compared with group C,the cell survival rate and MMP were significantly decreased,the apop-tosis rate and ROS activity were increased,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰrati-o were increased in OGD/R and OGD/R+H2 groups(P＜0.05).Compared with group OGD/R,the cell survival rate and MMP were significantly increased,the apoptosis rate and ROS activity were decreased,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were increased in group OGD/R+H2(P＜0.05),and the cell survival rate and MMP were significantly decreased,the apoptosis rate and ROS activ-ity were increased,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were decreased in group OGD/R+3-MA(P＜0.05).Compared with group OGD/R+H2,the cell survival rate and MMP were significantly decreased,the apoptosis rate and ROS activity were increased,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were decreased in OGD/R+3-MA and OGD/R+H2+3-MA groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Hippocampal neuron-protective mechanism of hydrogen against OGDR injury is relat-ed to promoting mitochondrial autophagy in rats.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the hippocampal neuron-protective mechanism of hydrogen in a rat model of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) and mitochondrial autophagy. Methods: Hippocampal neurons isolated from healthy Sprague-Dawley rats (24 h after birth) were cultured in vitro, seeded in polylysine-coated 6-well plates at a density of 7×10⁵ cells/well and then divided into 5 groups (n=30 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), OGD/R group, OGD/R+ H₂ group, OGD/R plus 3-methyladenine (3-MA) group (OGD/R+ 3-MA group), and OGD/R plus H₂ plus 3-MA group (OGD/R+ H₂+ 3-MA group). The cells were cultured for 24 h in normal culture atmosphere (75%N₂-20%O₂-5%CO₂) in group C, and cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation for 2 h followed by O₂-glucose supply for 24 h to establish the model of OGD/R injury in OGD/R, OGD/R+ H₂, OGD/R+ 3-MA and OGD/R+ H₂+ 3-MA groups.The cells were cultured for 24 h in a hydrogen-rich incubator (60% H₂-10% O₂-5% CO₂-25% N₂) after establishing the model in group OGD/R+ H₂.Autophagy inhibitor 3-MA 10 mmol/L was added, and then cultured for 24 h in normal culture atmosphere after establishing the model in group OGD/R+ 3-MA.Autophagy inhibitor 3-MA 10 mmol/L was added, and then cultured for 24 h in hydrogen-rich incubator after establishing the model in group OGD/R+ H₂+ 3-MA.The cell survival rate was measured using MTT assay.DCFH-DA fluorescent probe was applied for determination of reactive oxygen species (ROS) activity.The mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using a JC-10 assay kit.The neuronal apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and apoptosis rate was calculated.The expression of mitophagy-related protein microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), PINK1 and Parkin was determined by Western blot, and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio was calculated. Results: Compared with group C, the cell survival rate and MMP were significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate and ROS activity were increased, and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio were increased in OGD/R and OGD/R+ H₂ groups (P<0.05).

The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a destructive pest native to America and has recently become an invasive insect pest in China. Because of its rapid spread and great risks in China, understanding of FAW genetic background and pesticide resistance is urgent and essential to develop effective management strategies. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of a male FAW (SFynMstLFR) and compared re-sequencing results of the populations from America, Africa, and China. Strain identification of 163 individuals collected from America, Africa and China showed that both C and R strains were found in the American populations, while only C strain was found in the Chinese and African populations. Moreover, population genomics analysis showed that populations from Africa and China have close relationship with significantly genetic differentiation from American populations. Taken together, FAWs invaded into China were most likely originated from Africa. Comparative genomics analysis displayed that the cytochrome p450 gene family is extremely expanded to 425 members in FAW, of which 283 genes are specific to FAW. Treatments of Chinese populations with twenty-three pesticides showed the variant patterns of transcriptome profiles, and several detoxification genes such as AOX, UGT and GST specially responded to the pesticides. These findings will be useful in developing effective strategies for management of FAW in China and other invaded areas.
