Objective To investigate the mechanism by which Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NADH)regu-lates anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury and apoptosis in mice through SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway.Methods Twenty-four six-week-old SPF male mice were randomly divided into four groups according to body weight,ADLI group[90 mg/(kg·d)Isoniazid,135 mg/(kg·d)Rifampicin,315 mg/(kg·d)Pyrazinamide were given by gavage],control group[thesame volume of saline was given by gavage as antituberculosis drug-induced liver injury(ADLI)group],NADH group(30 mg/kg NADH wasgiven by gavage on the basis of control group)and NADH intervention group(30 mg/kg NADH wasgiven by gavage on the basis of ADLI group),with sixmice in each group.They were gavaged continuously for seven days,and their seruand liver tissues were collected.The mRNA and protein expression of silence information regulator 1(SIRT1),nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)in SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway,apoptosis indicators B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax)and caspase-3 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.HE staining was performed to observe the morphology of liver tissue.The liver was weighedandthe liver index was obtained by dividingweight by body weight.The levels of glutamate aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),which are indicators of liver injury,were detected by microplate method.Results Compared with control group,the protein and mRNA expression of SIRT1,Nrf2decreased significantly in ADLI group.Liver tissue struc-ture wasdisturbed,hepatocytes were obviously swollen,and their boundary was unclear.The weight of mice de-creased,but liver index increased.The mRNA and protein expression level of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2 decreased,while that of Bax and caspase-3 was raised.The level of ALT,AST and LDH were also elevated.The differences a-bove were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with ADLI group,the protein and mRNA expression of SIRT1,Nrf2 were higher after NADH intervention.Liver tissue structure became clear,and hepatocytes were po-lygonal.The protein and mRNA expression of anti-apoptosis factor Bcl-2 was elevated and while that of Bax and caspase-3 was lower.The weight of mice increased and liver index decreased.The expression of ALT,AST and LDH decreased.The differences above were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion NADH may allevi-ate anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury and apoptosis in mice by regulating SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway.

Objective:To summarize the genetic etiology, clinical characteristics and outcomes of neonatal hypotonia in the early stage of NICU, to provide basis for clinicians to early identify diseases and choose reasonable treatments.Methods:The clinical data of neonates with hypotonia admitted to the Department of Neonatology of Children′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from July 2017 to July 2020 were analyzed.Results:A total of 49 children were enrolled in the study, all clinically manifested as unexplained hypotonia, accompanied by special appearance 29 cases(59.18%), metabolic abnormality 18 cases(36.73%), and cranial imagin abnormality 23 cases(46.93%). After gene sequencing a, total of 22(44.89%)patients were confirmed.Thirteen (26.53%) of them were copy number variation, and gene mutation in nine cases(18.36%). The oldest age of these patients was 3 years and 2 months now, while the youngest was 4 months.A total of 16 patients were dead(32.65%). Four (8.16%) patients were lost to follow-up.At present, eighteen (62.07%) patients had mental retardation, and eleven (37.93%) of whom still existed severe physical retardation.Conclusion:We could conduct genetic testing in NICU to improve the diagnosis rate of neonates with unexplained hypotonia, which have high rate of adverse events.Neonates with a clear diagnosis should be treated promptly and give the genetic counseling to reduce the risk for the next children.

Objective To observe the effects of different energy of extracorporeal shock waves (ECSWs) on diabetic neuralgia in rats.Methods Fifty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes,aged 8 weeks,weighing 180-200 g,were divided into 5 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C),diabetic neuralgia group (group DN),low-energy ECSW group (group L + DN),medium-energy ECSW group (group M + DN),and high-energy ECSW group (group H+DN).Diabetic neuralgia models were established by intraperitoneally injecting streptozotocin (60 mg/kg) in DN,L+DN,M+DN and H+DN groups.ECSWs at 1,2 and 3 bar were applied during 4 consecutive weeks after successful establishment of the model once a week (T1-T4) in L+DN,M+DN and H+ DN groups,respectively.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT),thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) and motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) were measured at T1-T4.Animals were sacrificed after the last measurement,and the sciatic nerve samples were obtained for determination of the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interluekin-6 (IL-6) (by Western blot) and expression of TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA (by real-time polymerase chain reaction).Results Compared with group C,MWT,TWL and MNCV were significantly decreased at T1-T4,and the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in the other groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group DN,MWT at T2-4 and TWL and MNCV at T3,4 were significantly increased,and the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in L+DN,M+DN and H+DN groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group H+ DN,MWT at T2-4 and TWL and MNCV at T3,4 were significantly increased,and the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in L+DN and M+DN groups,and the expression of IL-6 mRNA was significantly down-regulated in group L+DN (P＜0.05).Conclusion ECSWs can mitigate diabetic neuralgia in rats,and the low-and medium-energy ECSWs produce better efficacy,and the mechanism is related to inhibiting inflammatory responses.

Objective To detect the reactive samples of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA1) by chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay (CMIA),and to analyze the application value of CMIA in HCV infection validation of blood donors.Methods Nucleic acid 3-item combined testing (NAT),another ELISA2,HCV antibody supplementary test(Western Blot test,WB) and CMIA test supplemented in blood samples of 102 ELISA1 anti-HCV reactive blood donors were retrospectively analysed.Results Among 102 blood donors of anti-HCV positive,32 cases (31.37%,32/102) were HCV RNA reactive samples,50 cases (49.02%,50/102) were ELISA2/WB reactive simultaneously.With CMIA NAT results as the reference standard,CMIA was poorly correlated with HCV RNA (Spearman correlation coefficient rs=0.395,P<0.01),and the consistency between them was weak by Kappa test (Kappa=0.270,P<0.01).With ELISA2/WB detection results as the reference standard,CMIA was highly correlated with the results(Spearman correlation coefficient rs=0.713,P<0.01),and which showed high consistency by Kappa test (Kappa=0.674,P<0.01).Conclusion CMIA as a detection method of protein label after HCV infection has great value in the HCV infection confirmation in low-risk population.

[Summary] The aim of this study was to examine the association between obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS ) and microalbuminuria in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. We found that severe OSAHS significantly increases the risk of early renal damage in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with HbA1C<7% ( lowest oxygen saturation:OR=2. 41, 95% CI 1. 19-8. 08; apnea hyponea index: OR=2. 91, 95% CI 1. 50-9. 11), suggesting that OSAHS may increase the risk for early renal damage in type 2 diabetes mellitus, especially in those with successful control of glucose.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of periostin overexpression on migration and invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma ( NPC) cell line.Methods The recombinant plasmids [ pCMV-neo ( +)-periostin ] and control plasmids [pCMV-neo (+)] were transfected into 6-10B cells using lipofectamine 2000TM reagent.The expression of periostin was detected with PCR and Western blotting .Transwell chamber invasion assay was employed to assay the migration and invasion of 6-10B cells before and after transfection .A gelatin zymogram was used to detect the activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in cultivated supernatant of 6-10B cells before and after transfection .The expression of integrin-αvβ5 was detected by immunohistochemistry ( IHC) in 6-10Bperiostin cells, 6-10Bvector cells and 6-10B cells as well as normal nasopharyngeal mucosa ( NNM) and NPC and at the same time periostin also was detected by immumohistochemistry in NNM and NPC, and densitometry analysis using image-pro plus 6.0 software, and the correlation between periostin and integrin-αvβ5 on NPC was assayed with statistics .Results Over expression of periostin promoted cell migration and invasion.The expression levels of integrin-αvβ5 in primary NPC and 6-10Bperiostin cells were significantly higher than those in NNM and 6-10Bvector, 6-10B cells.The expression in NPC of integrin-αvβ5 showed positively correlated with the expression of periostin (r=0.682, P<0.01).Conclusion Periostin plays an important role in regulation of cell migration and invasion probably by combining with integrin-αvβ5 to improve the activities of MMPs .
