Objective To investigate insulin resistance in type 1 diabetes(T1DM)with euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp.Methods Eight cases of newly diagnosed T1DM and 8 cases of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes(T2DM)were selected.Their insulin sensitivity index(ISI)was evaluated with euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp after 2 week insulin intensive treatment and compared with that of 10 heMthy volunteers(normal control group,NC group).Results Age,BMI,fasting insulin(Fins),fasting C-peptide in the TI DM group were significantly lower than those in the NC group.while waist-to-hip ratio (WHR),systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C were not significantly different between the T1DM and NC groups.Age,BMI,WHR,Fins,fasting C-peptide,SBP,TC,TG in the T1DM group were significantly lower than those in the T2DM group.The ISI of the NC,TlDM and T2DM groups were 12.83±1.09,9.95±0.50,3.80±0.20,respectively.There was significant difference among the three groups(P<0.05).Conclusion The ISI in T1DM Was significantly lower than that in NC group,but higher than that in T2DM.

The American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) updated and published the Practice Guidance for the Diagnosis and Management of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in July 2017, which provides recommendations for the accurate diagnosis, treatment, and effective prevention of NAFLD. Related metabolic diseases should be considered during the initial evaluation of patients suspected of NAFLD. Noninvasive diagnostic techniques including transient elastography, magnetic resonance elastography, and serum biochemical models should be used to evaluate the development and progression of liver fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. Clinical liver pathology report should clearly differentiate between nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), NAFL with inflammation, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and identify the presence or absence of liver fibrosis and its degree. Early medication for NAFLD can only be used in patients with pathologically confirmed NASH and liver fibrosis, and it is not recommended to use pioglitazone and vitamin E as the first-line drugs for patients with NASH which has not been proven by biopsy or non-diabetic NASH patients. Foregut bariatric surgery can be considered for obese patients with NAFLD/NASH who meet related indications. It is emphasized that the risk factors for cardiovascular disease should be eliminated for NAFLD patients. Statins can be used for the treatment of dyslipidemia in patients with NAFLD/NASH, but they cannot be used in patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis. Routine screening or hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance is not recommended for NASH patients without liver cirrhosis. Cardiovascular disease should be taken seriously during liver transplantation evaluation. There is still no adequate clinical evidence for the treatment of NAFLD in children and adolescents, and intensive lifestyle intervention is recommended as the first-line therapy for such patients.

[摘 要] 目的:探讨lncRNA FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织和细胞中的表达及其对PC-3细胞增殖与迁移能力的影响及其分子机制。方法:选用2017年3月至2019年5月在洛阳中心医院手术切除的52例前列腺癌及相应的癌旁组织标本,以及前列腺细胞系LNCaP、C4-2B、PC-3、DU-145和正常前列腺上皮细胞RWPE-1,用qPCR法检测前列腺癌组织和细胞中FLJ26245的表达水平。分别将FLJ26245 mimic和阴性对照质粒(lncR-NC)转染到PC-3细胞中,用MTT法、细胞划痕愈合实验分别检测细胞的增殖和迁移能力。生物信息学技术预测和双荧光素酶基因报告实验验证FLJ26245与miR-200a-3p、酪氨酸磷酸酶受体G(PTPRG)三者之间的靶向关系。用qPCR和WB法分别检测FLJ26245下游基因及增殖与迁移相关蛋白的表达。结果:FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织和细胞中的表达水平分别显著低于癌旁组织(P<0.01)和RWPE-1细胞(P<0.01或P<0.05),以PC-3细胞中的表达水平为最低(P<0.01)。FLJ26245过表达可明显抑制PC-3细胞的增殖和迁移能力(P<0.05或P<0.01)。FLJ26245可与miR-200a-3p靶向结合,miR-200a-3p可与PTPRG靶向结合(均P<0.01)。FLJ26245过表达的PC-3细胞中miR-200a-3p表达水平显著降低(P<0.01)、PTPRG mRNA和蛋白表达水平均明显升高(均P<0.01),细胞中增殖和迁移相关蛋白cyclin A、CDK2和Twist、N-cadherin均显著降低(均P<0.01)。结论:FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织及细胞中均低表达,其可能通过miR-200a-3p/PTPRG轴调控前列腺癌PC-3细胞的增殖与迁移能力。
