Objective To study the anti-fatigue effects of enzymatic hydrolyzed protein from Pinctada martensii.Methods Swimming time,contents of liver glycogen and serum urea nitrogen after swimming were determined.Results Three dosages of EPA were all able to prolong swimming time and decrease liver glycogen consumption and serum urea nitrogen content after exhausted swimming in various degree.Conclusion The EAP has evident anti-fatigue effects.

Purpose To investigate the expression of cell cycle related protein including Cyclin D1,CDK4,p16 and IgH/CCND1 fusion gene in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and their relationship with each other.Methods The expression of cell cycle related protein including Cyclin D1,CDK4,p16 and IgH/CCND1 fusion gene were detected on the 40 cases of MCL (expreimental group) and 20 cases of reactive hyperplasia (control group) by using the combined detection of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry of EnVision two methods.40 cases of MCL were confirmend by using gene rearrangement technique and immunohistochemistry.The threshold of IgH/CCND1 fusion gene of MCL was established in the control group.Results In the experimental group,Cyclin D1 protein positive expression rate was 100%,the positive expression of CDK4 protein rate was 87.50%,p16 protein positive expression rate was 17.50%.Positive rate of IgH/CCND1 fusion gene of 100%.These cell cycle related protein and IgH/CCND1 fusion gene were negative in the control group.Conclusion In MCL,Cyclin D1-CDK4-p16 pathway is consistent with the principle of tumor cell cycle regulation.The establishment of threshold value of IgH/CCND1 fusion gene by FISH technique may provide the basis for the judgement of FISH of the IgH/CCND1 in China.

Purpose To produce enzymatic hydolysates with angiotensin Ⅰ-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity and antihypertensive activity from Acetes chinensis. Methods ACE inhibitory activity of the hydrolysates of Acetes chinensis by five commercial proteases were determined in vitro to select a protease as the enzyme used in the preparation of enzymatic hydrolysate of Acetes chinensis, and orthogonal trials were employed to optimize its hydrolysis parameters, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were used to assess in vivo the hypotensive effects of hydrolysate under optimized condition. Results The hydrolysate with IC50 being0.65 mg/ml was obtained under the optimized condition of pH 2.4, 41℃, 3 h hydrolysis time, 3% enzyme/substrate ratio (E/S) and 8 % substrate concentration, and a recorded SBP reduction of 3 886.3 Pa (29mmHg) at 4 h after administration (1.0 g/kg BW) was observed. Conclusion Peptic hydrolysate of Acetes chinensis shows significant ACE inhibitory activity and antihypertensive activity.

Objectives:
To establish a geographic information application system for analyzing the spatial and temporal distribution of major infectious diseases in various regions of the world and to assess the risk of importation of those diseases, to China.
Methods:
We collected and integrated the following information on: 1) outbreaks and areas of epidemics of major infectious diseases in the world from 2000 to 2017, 2) cases of infectious diseases in arriving travelers through active surveillance at international entry-exit ports in mainland China from 2014 to 2016, 3) numbers of annual global international flights and travelers in the country. With the above information, a global space-time distribution database on major infectious diseases was then established, using the technology related to the system. Models regarding technologies on time-space analysis, probabilistic risk assessment and geographic information visualization, were applied to establish a geographic information system on risk assessment of infectious diseases that imported to China.
Results:
Through integration of information on outbreaks and epidemic areas of 60 major infectious diseases in 220 countries and regions around the world, as well as 42 kinds of infectious diseases identified among the international arrivals in mainland China, a system was then developed. Information on the distribution of major infectious diseases and their potential risks in the worldwide various regions, characteristics of spectrum and disease burden of infectious diseases imported to each province of mainland China were displayed. Thus, risks on importing infectious diseases in each province via air way were able to be evaluated and simulated by the probabilistic risk assessment model, under the information on specific kind of infectious disease, outside China.
Conclusion
Geographic Information System on Risk Assessment Regarding Infectious Diseases Imported to China provides basic data for epidemiological reconnaissance and assessment on risks of importing infectious diseases outside China, thus would be helpful for the improvement of strategies on surveillance, prevention and control regarding the importing infectious diseases, in China.
