Objective To observe the effects of gossypol on expressions of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), fibronectin (FN) and 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β-HSD) in nephridial tissue in rats with diabetes mellitus. Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control, type 2 diabetes and gossypol treatment group . After high-fat feeding for 4 weeks, the later two groups were injected with low dosage strepozotocin (30 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rat model. The rats in gossypol treated group were given gossypol at the dosage of 15 mg/kg once per day for 4 weeks by gavage. And since the 5th week, the times of gavages had been changed into once per week at the same dosage and lasted to the 12th week . The levels of blood glucose, total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-c) were measured. Additionally, the morphological changes of the kidney were studied by light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy respectively. The mRNA expressions of TGF-β1, FN, 11β-HSD and 11β-HSD2 in nephridial tissue were assayed by semi-quantity RT-PCR. The protein expressions of TGF-β1 and FN in nephridial tissue were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results The blood levels of glucose, TC and LDL- c were increased significantly in type 2 diabetic group compared with normal control group(P<0. 01). The volume of glomerulus and the deposition of PAS positive substance in the glomerular interstitium were increased under light microscopy, and the glomerular basal membrane was thicker in type 2 diabetic group than those in normal control group under transmission electron microscopy. The mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 and FN were increased(P<0. 01), and the mRNA expression of 11β-HSD2 was decreased(P<0. 05), while the mRNA expression of 11β-HSD1 was unchanged in type 2 diabetic group compared with normal control group. After the treatment of gossypol, the level of the blood glucose was significantly decreased(P< 0. 01), and the levels of TC, LDL-c showed a trend of decrease but had no statistical differences compared with type 2 diabetic group. The morphology of nephridial tissue was ameliorated in gossypol treatment group. The mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 and FN were decreased(0. 16± 0. 02,0. 22±0. 05 ; 0. 24±0. 06,0. 33±0. 07, P< 0. 05), while the mRNA expressions of 11β-HSD1 and 11β-HSD2 were unchanged compared with type 2 diabetic group. Conclusions Gossypol can relieve the pathologic changes of nephridial tissue, inhibit the expressions of TGF-β1 and FN through decreasing blood glucose of rats with diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the effects and anti-atherosclerotic mechanism of rosiglitazone on the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in atherosclerotic rabbits. Methods Twelve rabbits were randomly divided into two groups (6 each): control group (only high cholesterol diet for 6 weeks), rosiglitazone group [high cholesterol diet plus rosiglitazone 0.5mg/(kg?d) for 6 weeks]. ABCA1 expression and [3H] cholesterol efflux rates were evaluated by flow cytometry and liquid scintillation spectrometry, respectively. Enzymatic methods were used to assay serum lipids levels and cholesterol contents in tissues, and the atherosclerotic area of aorta was calculated by professional image analysis software. Results For the rabbits of both control and rosiglitazone group, the serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (NHDL-C) and apolipoprotein A1 (apoA1) significantly went up when they took their cholesterol rich diet for 6 weeks (P0.05). Compared with control group, the ABCA1 expressions in monocytes, peritoneal macrophages, adipocytes and hepatocytes, as well as the cholesterol efflux rates in peritoneal macrophages, adipocytes and hepatocytes increased significantly (P

Objective To observe the onset of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) senescence induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP) and the intervention effect of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Methods The VSMCs were divided into four groups: blank control group, t-BHP group (incubated with 80 μmol/L t-BHP for 72 h), 10 nmol/L DHEA intervention group (pretreated with 10 nmol/L DHEA 30 min before t-BHP) and 100 nmol/L DHEA intervention group (pretreated with 100nmol/L DHEA 30 min before t-BHP). Two ageing markers of ageing associated β-galactosidase activity and cell proliferation activity were adopted as main indexes. β-galactosidase activity was measured with immunocytochemical method and cell proliferation activity was measured with flowcytometry. Results After continuous treatment with 80 mmol/L t-BHP for 72 h, the ratios of G0/G1 phase cells and SA-β-galactosidase staining positive cells increased as compared with blank controlgroup [(89.4±3.4)% vs. (49.5±5.5)%, (3.5±1.2)% vs. (75.3±4.3)%], which indicated that VSMCs senescence were successfully induced by t-BHP. While the above changes were smaller in 100 nmol/L DHEA intervention group than in t-BHP group. Conclusions With ageing,accumulation of damage produced by reactive oxygen species may be an important mechanism causing the onset of VSMCs senescence. DHEA may be able to retard the progression of VSMCs senescence through antioxidant effect.

Objective To learn the change of causes sequences, the pattern and dynamic trend of causes of death for the inhabitants in Jiaxing from 2009 to 2014, and to provide a major reference for health decisions and disease control and prevention. Method This study was based on chronic disease surveillance information management data in Zhejiang province from 2009 to 2014. ICD-10 criteria and method was used to classify the causes of death. To evaluate health status of those residents, the relative health indicators such as mortality rate, constituent ratio, PYLL, AYLL, PYLL‰were used. Results The average mortality rate of residents was 691.92/100 000 of Jiaxing from 2009 to 2014, with male 760.73/100 000 and female 624.64/100 000 (the average mortality rate of male was significantly higher than that of female, χ2=455.52, P<0.01). The top five causes of death of local residents were malignant neoplasm, respiratory system diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, injury and poisoning, heart diseases, which accounted for 87.95%of all deaths. The mortality caused by malignant neoplasm was 189.53/100 000, which accounted for 31.90% of five main death causes (the rate of male was significantly higher than that of female, χ2=3767.70, P<0.01). The PYLL of malignant neoplasm were 38 368 years, which was the main reason. The AYLL of injury and poisoning were 9.58 years. Conclusion The average mortality rate of residents has been declining across the Jiaxing, but the mortality rate of malignant neoplasm is increasing year by year. The data suggested that malignant neoplasm, cardiovascular disease, unintentional falls, motor vehicle traffic accidents and pneumonia are major factors affecting the health of the population.
