Objective To describe the current status of adult overweight and obesity in urban and suburb areas of Tianjin.Methods 2 283 adult people including 1 131 from urban and 1 152 from suburb were selected by multi-stage cluster random sampling.The waist circumference,weight and height of the subjects were measured.Then the BMI was calculated.Results The mean BMI of adult people in Tianjin was 25.05?5.02 kg/m2,the overweight rate was 36.9%,the obesity rate was 20.0% and the abdominal obesity rate was 63.9%.The prevalent rates of overweight,obesity and abdominal obesity in different age groups showed significant differences.The rates of overweight,obesity and abdominal obesity increased with ages in urban area.The overweight rate in 40～49 yrs and the obesity rate in 50～59 yrs reached their peak values in suburb.Besides the overweight rate in urban was significantly higher,the obesity rate and abdominal obesity rate were no significant differences between urban and suburb.The prevalent rates of overweight,obesity and abdominal obesity showed no significant differences between the adult male and female in Tianjin,but the prevalent rates of obesity and abdominal obesity in female were significantly higher than those in male in the suburb.The prevalence of obesity in the middle-ages showed significant differences between different occupational population,the retired taking the highest while the workers taking the lowest value.The prevalence of obesity showed no significant differences between population with different education background and different income situation.Conclusion The rates of adult overweight and obesity in Tianjin were higher than those of all over the country in 2002,and the abdomen obesity reached to 63.9%.Intervention should be taken to change this situation as soon as possible.

Objective To investigate the role of NF-κB in apoptosis of immortalized neural progenitor cells (INPCs) . Methods INPCs were cultured in 6-well plates and were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 6 each) : group I was not transfected with any plasmid (group INPC); group Ⅱ was transfected with control plasmid (group INPC/CMV); group Ⅲ was transfected with plasmid RcCMV-p50 (group INPC/p50); group Ⅳ was transfected with plasmid RcCMV-p65 (group INPC/p65) and group V was transfected with plasmid RcCMV-p50 and RcCMV-p65 (group INPC/p50p65). Group INPC/CMV ( H ), INPC/p50 (Ⅲ) and INPC/p65 (Ⅳ) were screened by G418, and the positive clones were then cultured for 3-4 weeks. The transcription of p50 mRNA or p6S mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. The NF-κB activity was measured by luciferase reporter gene assay. The cell apoptosis was measured by annexin V/PI staining. In group INPC/p50p65 and group INPC/p65, the cultured positive clone was transiently transfected with plasmid RcCMV-p50. Two days after transfection, the same measurement was performed in group INPC/pS0p65 and the other groups. Results The expression of p50 mRNA was significantly increased in group INPC/p50 and INPC/p50p65 as compared with the other groups ( P < 0.05) . The expression of p65 mRNA, the NF-κB activity and the apoptotic rate were significantly increased in group INPC/p65 and INPC/p50p65 as compared with the other groups ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Enhanced NF-κB activity can increase immortalized neural progenitor cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate application of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) on evaluating motor dysfunction degree of patients with cerebral infarction and explore the relationship between infracted focus and cortical spinal tract(CST).Methods Forty patients with cerebral infarctions in the different periods and 30 healthy volunteers were enrolled our study.They all underwent DTT check and then established CST.Meantime,all the patients were measured ADL score according to activities of daily living (ADL) on admission and two months after the onset.Results DTT image was made for both in patients and health control people.The CST was built in people in control group and its shape was like the adults'.Its shape was from the precentral gyrus down to internal capsule and continued to pontine and medulla oblongata.Each successive was form good consistency.The DTT image of patients' health side was like normal and injury corticospinal tract was affected by influence of infarction area at different level,manifested as loss of discontinuity and anatomical configuration consistency.Based on the degree of CST,there were 9 cases in grade Ⅰ,20 cases in grade Ⅱ and 11 cases at grade Ⅲ.DTT image showed that the damage level of CST had an negative relation with ADL score at 2 month after therapy (r =-0.914,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion DTT can show the spatial positions of infarctions and CST at non-invasive lesion and analyze the influence of infarctions and corticospinal tract.Therefore,it can serve as the objective proof for judging the injury of the motor function and evaluating prognosis.

Objective Toinvestigatetheexpressionof SIRT1anditsassociationwith clinicopathologic features in breast carcinoma with type 2 diabetes mellitus.MethodsThe expression of SIRT1 in 30 breast cancer with type 2 diabetes mellitus,65 samples of breast cancer without diabetes mellitus and 18 samples of corresponding normal breast tissues was investigated using immunohistochemistry.ResultsThe positive rate of SIRT1 in breast cancer tissues was significantly higher than that breast cancer with type 2 diabetes mellitus and normal breast tissue (P ＜0.05). In breast cancer with type 2 diabetes mellitus group.The positive rate of SIRT1 was significantly higher than that normal breast tissue(P ＜0.05).The expression of SIRT1 was positively correlated with the number of lymph node(P =0.011),pTNM tumor stage (P =0.028), p53 (P =0.003) and Her-2 (P =0.031) in breast cancer with type 2 diabetes mellitus group. The expression level of SIRT1 in lymph node-positive group was higher than that in lymph node-negative group (P ＜0.05).The expression level of SIRT1 was in lymph node-positive group was higher than that in lymph node-negative group(P ＜0.05).ConclusionSIRTI was up-regulated in breast cancer with type 2 diabetes mellitus,but its expression was lower than that breast cancer without diabetes mellitus,and was associated with the progression of diabetes mellitus. SIRT1 was positively correlated with lymph node, pTNM tumor stage,p53 and Her-2, SIRT1 may be a novel biological parameter to evaluate the malignant degree of breast carcinoma and to predict prognosis of breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of disodium cantharidinateon in vitro lymphocyte immune response in lung cancer patients.Methods Twenty non-small cell lung cancer patients diagnosed by pathological diagnosis were selected.The effects of different concentrations of disodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 on lymphocyte proliferation and CD4 + CD25 + T cells,CD25 + FOXP3 + T cells,CD4 + and CD8 + T cells were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay and flow cytometry.Results When the concentrations of disodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 was less than 10 μg/ml,with the growth of concentration,it stimulated the proliferation of peripheral blood lymphocytes.When the concentration was more than 10 μg/ml,with the growth of concentration,the absorbance value decreased,and the stimulating effect weakened.When the concentration of disodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection was less than 10 μg/ml,with the growth of concentration,CD4 +/CD8 + ratio increased significantly,and CD4 + CD25 +/CD4 + and CD25 + FOXP3 + T cells were significantly lower,which showed statistically significant differences (t =2.171,P =0.032 ; t =2.103,P =0.041 ; t =3.662,P =0.002 ; t =3.201,P =0.003 ; t =3.233,P =0.003).But when the concentration was more than 10 μg/ml,The differences of CD4 +/CD8 + ratio,CD4 + CD25 +/CD4 + and CD25 + FOXP3 + T cells in 10,15,20 μg/ml groups were not statistically significant,which showed that disodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection had a positive effect on enhancing the immune function of lymphocytes in lung cancer in a concentration dependent manner,but high concentration was unhelpful.Conclusion Disodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection can promote lung cancer in vitro lymphocyte proliferation as well as increase its immunity in a certain range.

With human placed in the whole nature, by following the biologic evolution path, the property of channel structure for "imprinting template" in meridian andwas explored with supramolecular chemistry. In the history of biologic evolution, each molecule in "molecule society" gradually developed into various highly-ordered supramolecular bodies based on self-identification, self-assembly, self-organization, self-replicating of"imprinting template", and thereby the original biochemical system was established, and finally evolved into human. In the forming process of supramolecular bodies, the channel structure of"imprinting template" in guest supramolecular bodies would be kept by host supramolecular bodies, and communicate with the outside to exchange materials, energy, information, otherwise life phenomenon could not continue, for which it was the chemical nature of biolo-gical supramolecular bodies for body to develop meridian. Therefore, the human was a gigantic and complicated supramolecules body in biological nature, and possessed the supramolecules "imprinting template" at each stage of evolution, for which the meridians were formed. When meridians converged, acupoints appeared; when acupointsconverged,appeared. With the promotion of the blood from heart, according to"imprinting template", the guest supramolecular bodies and host meridian produced-analysis, which was the-phenomenon of guest in meridian. It presented asimage of physiology and pathology as well as action regularities of medication and acupuncture tolerance, by which current various meridian viewpoints could be explained and propose the hypothesis of meridian supramolecular bodies. The meridian and its phenomenon was decide by its "imprinting template" of supramolecular bodies and self-reaction regularities, which abided through the living nature. This was the substance for meridian biology.
