Objective To reconstitute a transactivation system in yeast (yeast model) for screening the pesticides acting on ecdysone metabolism route and eventually influencing the process of ecdysis. Methods The fragment of 5 times repeated EcRE from Drosophila melanogaster was synthesized and the HSP27 promoter from D. melanogaster genome was amplified with PCR. The two sequences were connected and followed by a reporting gene——green fluorescence protein(GFP) gene. The EcRE-HSP27 promoter-GFP fragment was inserted into the expression plasmid pPIC3.5 and integrated into the yeast chromosome to construct yeast A. EcR and USP coding sequences of Aedes albopictus were synthesized, and these two fragments were inserted into Pichia pastoris expression plasmid pGAPZ as two respective reading frames. The two reading frames were integrated into Pichia pastoris chromosome in another recombinant site(pGAPZ and pPIC3.5k share different recombinant sites while being integrated into Pichia pastoris yeast chromosome). EcR and USP were constituted and expressed in the yeast. This recombinant yeast was called yeast B. The model yeast was thus constructed. A known ecdysone agonist-tebufenozide was used to test the yeast model. The effect of tebufenozide on the model yeast was observed under fluorescent microscope. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was used to test the transcrip-tion level of GFP in the tebufenozide affected yeast and the control. Results In the model yeast, the intracellular expressed EcR and USP constituted EcR/USP heterodimer interacting with EcRE, the expression of GFP was activated, and green fluorescence was observed in model yeast under fluorescent microscope. Tebufenozide affected model yeast showed less fluorescence in comparison to the control model yeast, indicating that the transcription of GFP was suppressed by tubufenozide. Yeast housekeeping gene Actin-1 was used as inner control, semi-quantitative RT-PCR was operated and the result was scanned. The ratio of the brightness of GFP to Actin-1 was calculated automatically, and that of tubufenozide added yeast and the control yeast was 0.614 and 1.134 respectively. This result showed a low transcription level of GFP in tebufenozide affected model yeast, comparing to that of the control. Conclusion The ecdysone-related transacting system in yeast has been constructed, and the model yeast can be used to screen the ecdysone agonists which can act on the ecdysone metabolic route.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of dyslipidemia among adult professional athletes in Guangdong Province, so as to provide insights into dyslipidemia screening and health management among professional athletes. Methods: In 2019, active athletes at ages of 18 to 30 years were recruited from 12 provincial sports teams in Guangdong Province using a cluster sampling method. A self-designed questionnaire survey was conducted to collect gender, age and sport items, and the levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were detected. The non-HDL-C level was calculated, and the gender- and sport item-specific prevalence of dyslipidemia was estimated. Results: Totally 460 athletes were investigated, including 245 males (53.26%) and 215 females (46.74%), with a mean age of (21.91±2.77) years. The overall detection of dyslipidemia was 25.87%, and the detection rates of high TG, high TC, high LDL-C, low-HDL-C and high non-HDL-C were 20.22%, 5.87%, 13.04%, 3.26% and 9.57%, respectively. The detection rates of high TG (9.39% vs. 1.86%; χ2=11.743, P<0.05), low HDL-C (5.31% vs. 0.93%; χ2=6.951, P<0.05) and high non-HDL-C (12.24% vs. 6.51%; χ2=4.351, P<0.05) were significantly greater in men than in women, and the detection of high TC was lower in men than in women (17.96% vs. 22.79%; χ2=8.627, P<0.05). There was a significant difference in the detection of dyslipidemia among athletes engaging in different sport items (χ2=47.552, P<0.05), and a high detection rate of dyslipidemia was seen in baseball athletes (34.29%), softball athletes (37.04%), shooting/archery athletes (52.73%). Conclusion The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 25.87% among adult professional athletes in Guangdong Province, and high TC in combination with high LDL-C were the predominant type of dyslipidemia. The management of blood lipids should be given a high priority to male athletes and baseball, softball and shooting/archery athletes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Qilinxintongshu pill for treatment of critical patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) accompanied by upper alimentary tract damage.Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 60 critical outpatients or inpatients with confirmed diagnosis of UAP accompanied by upper alimentary tract damage in Cardiology Department of Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Qionghai City from November 2011 to January 2015 were enrolled in the study, and they were assigned to a therapy group (30 cases) and a control group (30 cases) by table of random number. The conventional medical basic therapy was given to both groups, in addition, the patients in therapy group took Qilinxintongshu pill (made of notoginseng, dragon's blood, fruit of immature citron, etc.) 5 g once, three times a day, and the patients in control group orally administered clopidogrel 75 mg once a day, the therapeutic course being consecutive 30 days. After treatment, the rates of main cardiovascular events [including death, a newly-happened myocardial infarction (MI), and obstinate ischemia] and events of alimentary damage were compared between the two groups, and adverse effects were observed.Results There was no statistically significant difference in incidence of cardiovascular events between the therapy group and control group [6.7% (2/30) vs. 16.7% (5/30),P > 0.05]. The incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract was significantly lower in therapy group than that in control group [10.0% (3/30) vs. 36.7% (11/30),P < 0.05]. In the treatment process, there was no significant untoward side effect, and no abnormalities in routine blood and urine tests, liver and renal functions were found.Conclusion Qilinxintongshu pill for treatment of critical patients with UAP accompanied by upper alimentary damage is safe and effective, and does not enhance the incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract.

Objective To explore the value of endothelial dysfunction assessment in predicating major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.Methods A prospective cohort study included 136 end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients from Jan 1,2009 to Dec 31,2011 was conducted.Endothelial function was assessed by flowmediated dilation (FMD) of brachial artery.Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival rate.The survival difference between the two groups was compared by the log-rank test.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression was used to determine the independent risk factors of MACCE.Results In the follow-up period,18 patients in low FMD (FMD≤2.7％) group occurred MACCE,and 13 patients in high FMD (FMD ＞ 2.7％) group occurred MACCE.Compared with high FMD group,MACCE-free survival rate in the low FMD group had a significantly decreased (x2=4.190,P=0.041).Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that higher level of total cholesterol,lower FMD,longer PD time and higher levels of hs-CRP were all independent predictors of MACCE.Conclusion Reduced brachial artery FMD is an independent risk factor of MACCE,and the application of FMD contributes to the risk stratification of cardiac and cerebrovascular disease in PD patients.
