BACKGROUND: Decreasing of absorption of zinc from small intestine can induce dermatitis, alopecia, growth and developmental disorder and so on. It is not very clear that how to keep homeostasis when there is low zinc concentration. The discoveries of zinc transporters and relative researches provide new study direction.OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of different zinc concentration on the expressions of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) and human zinc-regulated transporter (ZRT), iron-regulated transporter (IRT)-like protein (ZIP) 4mRNA, and analyze the potential pathway of absorption of zinc from small intestine in low zinc concentration.DESIGN: Blank-controlled experiment.SETTING: Department of Military Hygiene, Navy Faculty, Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was accomplished in Department of Military Hygiene, Navy Faculty of Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between October 2004 and May 2005. Materials were human colon adenocarcinoma cells Caco2 that were purchased from Shanghai Institute of Cell of Chinese Academy of Sciences.Time-dependent effect: The expression of DMT1 and ZIP4 mRNA was detected with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) at 0,dependent effect: The expression of DMT1 and ZIP4 mRNA were measured after the 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 μmol/L TPEN exposure, respectively, by RT-PCR.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Time-and dose-dependent effect of zinc on the expression of DMT1 and ZIP4 mRNA in Caco2 cells.RESULTS: ①Time-dependent effect: Compared with 0 hour, the expression of DMT1 mRNA obviously increased at 6, 8 and 10 hours (P ＜ 0.05 ), but there was no significant change at 2 and 4 hours. The expression of ZIP4 mRNA markedly increased in all timing, and ZIP4 mRNA level at the 6th hour reached the peak with the prolongation of low zinc duration,which was 2.1 times ofthat at 0 hour. ②Dose-dependent effect: The expression of DMT1 mRNA distinctly increased at the concentration of 7.5 and 10 μmol/L TPEN exposure as compared with that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05), but there was no significant change at 2.5 and 5 μmol/L. The ZIP4 mRNA expression increased with the increasing of the concentration of TPEN, the expression of ZIP4 mRNA was 2.7 times of that at 0 μmol/L. CONCLUSION: Zinc can regulate the expression of DMT1 and ZIP4 mRNA in Caco2 cells, and there is time-and dose-dependent effect. But the mRNA expression of ZIP4 is more sensitive and prompt than DMT1. Cells can upregulate the expression of DMT1 and ZIP4 mRNA to keep the homeostasis in low zinc condition.

Objective To analyse the effects of anastomat to the resection surgery in 1800 esophageal and gastric cardiac carcinoma patients. Methods The Esophagus-gaster and Esophagus-intestine were stapled by anastomat in the cervical region in 182 cases、 intrathoracically in 1296 cases and intraperitoneal in 322cases. The occurrence of complications caused by anastomat, including anastomotic fistula,anastomotic stricture,anastomotic bleeding and mechanical failure,were observed. Results Anastomotic fistula occurred in 15 cases ( 15/1800,0.83% ,ten cases took Shanghai-made GF-I anastomat ,five cases took YH-W single disposable single anastomat ), among which 6 cases had the cervical anastomosis; Anastomotic stricture occurred in 41 cases ( 41 /1800,3.11%, fifteen cases took Shanghai-made GF-I anastomat, twenty-six took YH-W single disposable single anastomat) ,but all of them recovered after dilatation; Anastomotic bleeding occurred in 21 cases (21/18001.16%, thirteen cases took Shanghai-made GF-I anastomat, eight took YH-W single disposable single anastomat) ;Anastomat mechanical failure in operation occurred in 14 cases( 14/1800,0. 78% ,ten cases took Shanghai-made GF-I anastomat, four took YH-W single disposable single anastomat). Conclusion Anastomat is an effective method in reducing the postoperational complications of esophageal and gastric cardiac carcinoma resection. Disposable single anastomat has higher clinical value.

Objective To provide reference for developing and perfecting the open resources of national-wide cancer genomics-related data by collecting, systematizing, organizing, sharing and applying the related data of the National Genome Atlas ( TCGA) Program. Methods The technical process, sharing and use of TCGA Program data were in-vestigated. Results TCGA established the whole linkage data management process by cooperating with multiple cen-ters, including tissue sample collection, processing, quality control, sequencing, characteristics analysis, data sharing and application of research achievements. The data were classified according to the related cancer, data types and their processing. The mutation, amplification and deficit of related cancer characteristic genes and the af-fected signaling pathways were studied according to the two sharing mechanisms underlying open access and con-trolled access to the collected data and individual data. Conclusion Studies on TCGA Program can provide experi-ences and reference in data management for the implementation of large scale TCGA Program.

Objective:To study the concentration response and time course of zinc transporter 1 (ZnT 1) and metallothionein (MT1/MT2) mRNA,as well as the cell viability to zinc exposure in primary cultured new born rats hippocampal neuron s. Methods: The cell viability were determined by trypan blue s taining at various concentrations of Zn 2+ (0, 50, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200 ?mol/L). The expression of ZnT 1, MT1 and MT2 mRNA to various concentrations of zinc exposure(0, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 ?mol/L) and to 100 ?mol/L zinc exposure for different times (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 h) were determined b y real time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Results: The viabilit y of the neurons decreased significantly after 48 h once the concentration of Zn 2+ exceeded 125 ?mol/L,and the expression of ZnT 1 mRNA was in proportion to the increment of zinc.The expression of MT1/MT2 mRNA reached a plateau when the zinc concentration exceeding 75 ?mol/L. The expression of ZnT 1 mRNA peaked on about 2 h.However, the expression of MT1/MT2 mRNA reached its maximal around 6 h at the concentration of 100 ?mol/L. Conclusion: These results imply that although both MTs and ZnT 1 can attenuate the zinc toxicity, they may play different roles at different phases. ZnT 1 enhance the efflux of zinc prior to the sequesteration by MTs. Th e action of ZnT 1 may be durable, but the role of MTs may be satiable.

Objective To investigate the clinical and immunological features,therapeutic response as well as prognosis of adult onset Still's disease (AOSD).Methods AOSD was diagnosed in 137 patients referred to our department.Clinical and immunological data were retrospectively analyzed.Therapeutic response and prognosis were systemically reviewed during the follow-up period.Intergroup incidence divergence was analyzed by chi-square test.Cox regression analysis was adopted to determine factors related with relapse.Results Fever,rash and arthritis were the cardinal clinical features of AOSD patients.Elevated inflammatory indices including ferritin (128 suhjects,97.1％ ) along with neutrophilia and liver dysfunction were the main laboratory findings.Ninety-eight patients were followed up and 75％ (73 subjects) had achieved complete remission after 4 weeks treatment.Forty-one patients (42％) who had achieved remission relapsed during follow-up period.Combination of glucocorticoid steroid and disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) were more effective than glucocorticoid steroid only in inducing remission and preventing relapse.More patients received glucocorticoid combined with methotrcxate and hydroxychloroquine achieved remission (8 of 8 patients) than patients who were treated with glucocorticoid and methotrexate (25 of 28 patients,89％ ) and those treated with glucocorticoid and hydroxychloroquine (14 of 16 patients,88％ ).Patients with glucocorticoid were more likely to suffer disease recurrence than those who took glucocorticoid combined with DMARDs (61％ vs 29％,P=0.004).Cox regression analysis suggested that methotrexate had protec-tive effect against recurrence [RR=0.418,95％CI (0.192-0.909),P=0.028].5％ of patients were diagnosed to other diseases during the follow up period.Conclusion Initial treatment with combined glucocorticoid and DMARDs is beneficial to induce remission and prevent reoccurrence.Methotrcxate has a protective effect against recurrence.

This paper proposed a rehabilitation training system with electromyography (sEMG) feedback for stroke patients based on ARM embedded system and LabVIEW. The system can achieve real-time acquisition, processing and dualview of multi-channel sEMGs and compute related sEMG parameters including iEMG, RMS, MPF and co-contraction ratio.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the homocysteine,sperm DNA fragmentation index and sperm counts of male with severe impaired spermatoqenesis.Methods From December 2015 to February 2017,56 male patients with severe impaired spermatoqenesis were enrolled in the study.The patients were divided into two groups according to the WHO criteria:severe oligozoospermia and azoospermia group (n =25) and oligoasthenoteratozoospermia group (n =31),and the control group was a male with no reproductive impairment (n=27).The sperm parameters were analyzed by using the computer automatic semen analyzer,sperm DNA fragmentation index and serum Hcy level were detected by sperm chromatin diffusion method and enzyme colorimetric method.Results The median of Sperm DNA fragmentation index and homocysteine level in control groups were 33％ [95％CI(29.0％ ～34.4％)] and 13.2 μmol/L [95％CI(12.4 μmol/L～14.2 μmol/L)],and in severe spermatogenesis groups in these two indicators were 21％ [95％CI(19.0％ ～24.0％)] and 8.9 mol/L [95％CI(8.4 μmol/L～ 9.4 μmol/L)],respectively.The results of these two items were higher than the control group,the difference was statistically significant (t=6.793～7.543,P=0.000).Sperm survival rate in normal control group and severe spermatogenesis group was 71％ [95％ CI(67.8％ ～75.1％)] and 57％[95％CI(52.3％ ～58.0％)],respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (t=-8.475,P=0.000).Sperm DNA fragmentation index was positively correlated with serum Hcy level and sperm concentration,Passing-Bablok regression analysis was:Y=10.705 +0.053X,Y=21.071+0.286X,and Hcy level was negatively correlated with sperm concentration.Conclusion The increase of Hcy level and sperm DNA fragmentation index may be an importantcause of male with severe impaired spermatoqenesis,but the specific mechanism remains to be further studied.

Objective To investigate the effect of ski gene in migration process of astrocytes in rats. Methods Astrocytes were obtained from rats' cerebral cortex and cultured in vitro. siRNA targeting ski gene and negative control sequences were prepared. The ski-siRNA group, siRNA negative control group and untreated group were set in this experiment. The specific siRNA targeting ski gene was transfected into astrocytes with Lipofectamine?RNAiMAX Reagent. Then the ski protein levels were determined with Western blotting. After transfec-tion, the changes in migration of astrocytes were measured with wound scratch assay and Transwell migration assay. Results Western blot-ting showed that the expression of ski protein was significantly lower in the ski-siRNA group than in the siRNA negative control group and untreated group (F=132.957, P<0.001). Transwell migration assay showed that the number of astrocytes crossing through chambers was less in the ski-siRNA group than in the siRNA negative control group and untreated group (F>47.197, P<0.05). Wound scratch assay showed that the wound healing rate was lower in the ski-siRNA group than in the control group one, two, three, four and five days after transfection (F>69.187, P<0.001). Conclusion Ski knocked down by siRNA could inhibit the migration ability of astrocytes. It is a reminding that ski may take part in the migration process of astrocytes, and moreover, ski may play an important role in the formation of glial scar.
