267 newly-diagnosed patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into normoalbuminuria group [group N-UAlb, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR)<30 mg/g, n=103], microalbuminuria group(group M-UAlb, UACR 30~300 mg/g, n=88 ) , and macroalbuminuria group ( group L-UAlb, UACR>300 mg/g, n=76). The control group(group NC) consisted of 114 healthy individuals. Serum betatrophin, adiponectin(APN), and interleukin-1β( IL-1β) levels were determined with ELISA methods and the parameters of body mass index (BMI), estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR), HbA1C, fasting plasma glucose(FPG), OGTT 2h plasma glucose(2hPG), fasting insulin(FINS), OGTT 2h postprandial insulin(2hPINS), fasting C-peptide(FCP), homeostasis model assessment insulin resistant index(HOMA-IR), and blood lipid were collected. Compared with group NC, the serum betatrophin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes were obviously increased. In patients with type 2 diabetes, betatrophin levels increased along with the increase of UACR and there were significant differences in betatrophin among the three groups(P<0. 01). Betatrophin positively correlated with UACR, HbA1C, FPG, 2hPG, FINS, 2hPINS, HOMA-IR, TC, LDL-C, and TG( r were 0. 785, 0. 225, 0. 136, 0. 241, 0. 386, 0. 223, 0. 411, 0.216,0.193,and0.298,allP<0.05),and betatrophin were also positively correlated with APN and IL-1β(rwere 0. 643 and 0. 710, both P<0. 01). Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that UACR, HbA1C, FINS, and TG were independent relevant factors affecting betatrophin levels.

Objective To observe the effects of Jianpi Yangxue Qufeng Formula (JPYXQF) on the AQP3 in mice with chronic eczema, and explore mechanism of action. Methods Fifty healthy male mice were randomly divided into 5 groups, namely normal group, model group, positive medicine group and JPYXQF high and low dose groups. Low-dose DNCB and Sennae Fominm were used to establish mice models of chronic eczema with spleen deficiency. JPYXQF groups were treated by JPYXQF for gavage, while the positive medicine group was treated by levocetirizine hydrochloride for gavage. The expression of AQP3 in mice skin tissue was detected by immunohistochemical method. At the same time, the pathological changes of skin were observed. Results The pathology of mice skin lesion showed that JPYXQF has certain recovery effects on the inflammation injury of skin lesion. Compared with the normal group, expression of AQP3 over expressed in model group. Compared with the model group, the expression of AQP3 in all treatment groups significantly decreased, and the staining intensity decreased. In the model group, the average optical density of AQP3 was significantly higher than that in the normal group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the treatment groups can reduce the expression of AQP3 in mice skin tissues (P<0.05). Conclusion JPYXQF can reduce the over expression of AQP3 in skin lesion, which is probably its mechanism for the treatment of chronic eczema.

Objective To explore the associations of serum Mir-217 with silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1)and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)in type 2 diabetic patients with different urinary albumin excretion rates. Methods A total of 479 patients with type 2 diabetes were divided into normoalbuminuric(D1, n=181), microalbuminuric(D2, n=165), and macroalbuminuric(D3, n=133)subgroups. 192 normal subjects served as control group. Serum level of Mir-217 was detected by realtime PCR. Serum Sirt1, HIF-1α, and vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Compared with control subjects, serum Mir-217 level was significantly increased in type 2 diabetic patients and gradually increased in D1, D2, and D3 groups(P<0. 01). The parameters of age, diabetes duration, body mass index, fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistant index(HOMA-IR), HbA1C, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol( LDL-C) , total cholesterol ( TC ) , triglyceride ( TG ) , serum uric acid ( SUA ) , blood urea nitrogen(BUN), HIF-1α, VEGF, and Mir-217 all were positively correlated with ACR(all P<0. 05). High density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)and Sirt1 were negatively correlated with ACR(both P<0. 05). VEGF, HIF-1α, Mir-217, BUN, diabetes duration, LDL-C, Sirt1, and SUA were independent factors that influenced ACR(all P<0. 01). Additionally, diabetes duration, HOMA-IR, HbA1C, ACR, LDL-C, TC, TG, SUA, BUN, HIF-1α, and VEGF were positively correlated with Mir-217(all P<0. 05), while Sirt1 was negatively correlated with Mir-217(P<0. 01). Conclusion Serum Mir-217, as a possible biomarker for early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy, may be involved in the development of diabetic nephropathy by promoting chronic inflammatory reaction, renal fibrosis, and angiogenesis.

Objective To investigate the metabolite features of chronic pancreatitis in rats in vitro by high resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Methods A total of 30 Spraque-Dawley rats were randomized into experimental group (n =20) and control group (n = 10). All the animals in experimental group were intravenously injected with 8 mg/kg body weight DBTC, and the animals in the control group received same amount of solvent. Pancreatic tissues were examined by histology and Van Gieson staining. Metabolic changes of chronic pancreatitis in vitro in rats were studied by high resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Results 60 days after DBTC application, the pancreatic tissue was characterized by an extended interstitial fibrosis with infiltrating mononuclear cells. Compared with the control group, the signal intensities of phosphocholine (Pc) and glycerophosphocholine (Gpc), taurine (Tau), lactate (Lac) of chronic pancreatitis group increased. Oppositely, the signal intensities of betine (Bet), glutamic acid ( Glu ), alanine (Ala), ileucine (He), leucine ( Leu ) and valine (Val) decreased. The signal intensities of acetic acid (Ace) and choline (Cho) were not changed. Conclusions There were obvious metabolic features of chronic pancreatitis in rats, and it is helpful for the application of magnetic resonance spectroscopy in chronic pancreatitis in human studies.

Objective To evaluate the consistence in the detection of antibodies against HIV-1 between a new rapid test using oral mucosal transudate (OMT) samples and ELISA using serum samples. Methods Two-hundred patients who were positive for anti-HIV-1 antibodies by serum ELISA and confirmed by Western blot to be infected with HIV, and 600 healthy human controls negative for anti-HIV-1 antibodies by serum ELISA, were eligible for this study. OMT samples were collected from these subjects and subjected to a rapid test for anti-HIV-1 antibodies. The factors influencing the performance of the rapid test were analyzed. Results Of the 200 OMT specimens from HIV-infected patients, 198 showed positive reaction, 2 showed negative reaction. Among the 198 positive reactions, 192 (96%) were "clear" and easy to make decisions, 4 (2%) were "faint", 2(1%) were "very faint" and required professionals to make decisions. The rapid test was negative in all the 600 OMT specimens from the control group. Conclusions The consistence in the detection of anti-HIV-1 antibodies between the OMT rapid test and serum ELISA was 99% in HIV-positive specimens, 100% in HIV-negative specimens, and 99.75% in all the specimens.

Objective To determine whether regulatory T cells(Tr)are increased in patients with tuberculosis and whether they are associated with its immunopathology.Meantime,to investigate the possibility of tuberculosis(TB)as a model for studying Tr functions.Methods The lymphocyte subsets were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells by sorting with flow cytometry.Total cellular RNA was extracted and RT-PCR was performed to detect the Foxp3 mRNA in purified CD3+CIM+T cells,CD3+CD8+T cells and non-CD3+CD4+CD8+T cells.Using FACS analysis.we further investigated the distribution of Foxp3+ population in CD4+ CD25+T cells.Finally,we compared the percentage of CD4+CD25highFoxp3+T cells present in 51 active patients with tuberculosis and 40 uninfected healthy control subjects by FACS.The detection of Tr infiltration of Foxp3+ cells were performed with immunohistochemistry(IHC)method on tuberculosis pathological sections.Results Foxp3 was specific expressed in CD3+CD4+T cells,either in tuberculosis patients or healthy control subjects.Foxp3+ T cells took about 85%fraction of CD4+ CD25highpopulation.We used CD4+CD25high Foxp3+as a detective markers for Tr in the FACS analysis.The results showed that patients with active TB had a 4.4 fold higher percentage within the CD4+T cells in peripheral blood compared to healthy control group(modian,1.01%vs 0.23%,P<0.01).Much higher frequency of Tr were found along with T cells infiltration at the tuberculosis pathological tissues.A few individuals that we can followed indicated the expanded Tr was declined after curative treatment with operation.Conclusion Tr cells are increased in tuberculosis patients and closely correlate with its immunopathology.Tuberculosis should be a valuable model for Tr functional study.
