Objective To investigate the effects of SWH solution on hepatic energy metabolism in SD rats compared with UW solution. Methods Levels of ATP, ADP, and AMP in hepatic tissues were examined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) while ALT, AST, and LDH were examined and the 7-day survival rate of animals was observed with orthotopic liver transplantation model in rats. Results Levels of ATP, TAN, and EC in 18-h group were significant lower than those in 8-h group. No significant difference was found between 12-h group and 8-h group. AST, ALT, and LDH were significantly increased after preservation for 18-h than preservation for 8-h. No significant difference was found between 12-h group and 8-h group. The 7-d survival rate of animals in SWH group was higher than that in UW group. The change tendency of ATP, TAN, and EC was the same as the tendency of 7-d survival rate of animals. Conclusion These results suggest that levels of ATP, ADP, and AMP in hepatic tissues are closely associated with the survival rate, and SWH solution is effective in protecting hepatic energy metabolism.

To study the coumarins of Anemone raddeana Regel, the compounds were separated by silica gel column chromatography and HPLC. Their structures were identified by their physicochemical property and spectral analysis. Two new compounds were isolated and identified as 4, 7-dimethoxyl-5-methyl-6-hydroxy coumarin (1) and 4, 7-dimethoxyl-5-formyl-6-hydroxycoumarin (2). The bioassays indicated that compounds 1 and 2 could significantly inhibit the proliferation of cancer cell, and showed the agonist effect on the transactivity of retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARalpha). In addition, the two compounds had inhibitory effect against human leukocyte elastase (HLE).

Objective: To investigate the status and identify the influencing factors of smoking behaviors among residents in Nanshan District, Shenzhen City, so as to provide insights into tobacco control. Methods: Permanent residents at ages of more than 18 years were recruited from 17 communities in Nanshan District, Shenzhen City using the stratified multistage random sampling method from July to November, 2018. Participants' demographic features, smoking, smoking cessation and exposure to secondhand smoke were collected using the Individual Questionnaire for 2018 Chinese Adult Chronic Disease and Nutrition Surveillance. The factors affecting current smoking were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 1 700 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 625 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.59%. The respondents included 714 men and 911 women, with a male to female ratio of 1∶1.27, and had a mean age of ( 45.13±13.59 ) years. The prevalence of current smoking was 15.51%, with 28.15% prevalence in men and 5.60% in women. The mean age of starting daily smoke was ( 21.00±5.52 ) years, and the mean daily smoking frequency was (13.53±9.15) cigarettes/d. The prevalence of smoking cessation was 6.58%, with 10.64% in men and 3.40% in women, and the prevalence of exposure to secondhand smoke was 41.42%, including 46.63% in men and 37.32% in women. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that an educational level of junior high school ( OR=1.683, 95%CI: 1.088-2.602 ), an educational level of high school/technical secondary school/vocational school (OR=1.687, 95%CI: 1.185-2.402), an occupation of farmers ( OR=2.514, 95%CI: 1.404-4.500 ), and an occupation of commercial and service personnel ( OR=1.939, 95%CI: 1.093-3.439 ) were associated with current smoking. Conclusion The prevalence of current smoking is low among residents in Nanshan District, but the prevalence of current smoking in women is higher than the national level. Educational level and occupation are main factors affecting current smoking.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of treating somatoform pain disorder(SPD)with electroacupuncture(EA)at the Governor and Conception Vessel points plus duloxetine.Methods:Eighty-two SPD patients were randomly allocated to an observation group and a control group,with 41 cases in each group.The control group was intervened by oral administration of duloxetine hydrochloride enteric capsules at a dose of 60 mg per time once a day;based on the medication,the observation group received additional EA treatment by selecting points from the Governor and Conception Vessels.Clinical efficacy was evaluated after 8 weeks of treatments;changes in the scores of the short-form McGill pain questionnaire(SF-MPQ),self-report symptom inventory,symptom check list-90(SCL-90),Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),and generic quality of life inventory-74(GQOLI-74)were also compared.Results:After the intervention,the observation group surpassed the control group in comparing the total effective rate(P＜0.05).The SF-MPQ score,SCL-90 somatization score,and PSQI score dropped notably in both groups after treatment,and the intra-group differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05);the three scores were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group(P＜0.05).The GQOLI-74 score got an increase in each dimension in both groups after treatment,and the intra-group differences were also statistically significant(P＜0.05);the GQOLI-74 dimension scores were all significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:For patients with SPD,combining EA at the Governor and Conception Vessel points and duloxetine hydrochloride enteric capsules can markedly improve their clinical symptoms and quality of life.

Objective To investigate the expression of miRNA associated with hepatic fibrosis induced by Schistosoma ja-ponicum soluble egg antigen stimulation in mouse hepatocytes(AML12),so as to lay the foundation for clarifying the mecha-nism of schistosome infection leading to hepatic fibrosis. Methods The expressions of miR-122,miR-182,miR-23b,miR-27b and KSRP in AML12 cells treated with SEA were measured by q-PCR. KSRP protein in cell lyses was measured by Western blotting. AML12 cells were transfected with miR-27b precursor or anti-miR-27b for 24 h,then q-PCR was adopted to determine KSRP mRNA,and KSRP protein was detected by Western blotting. Results The expressions of miR-182,miR-23b and miR-27b were decreased and miR-122 was increased in AML12 cells following SEA treatment(all P<0.05). An increase of mRNA and protein of KSRP expression was also observed in AML12 cells after SEA stimulation(both P<0.05). In addition,KSRP mRNA expression was not changed significantly in AML12 cells transfected with anti-miR-27b or miR-27b precursor,and miR-27b precursor reduced KSRP protein expression as compared with the control. In contrast,the expression of KSRP protein was increased in the anti-miR-27b group and decreased in the miR-27b precursor group. Conclusions After the stimulation of SEA,the expressions of a variety of liver fibrosis-related miRNAs and KSRP change in murine hepatocytes,including miR-27b. And miR-27b can regulate the expression of KSRP. These findings might lay a foundation for further study on the molecular mechanism of fibrosis induced by schistosome infection.
