Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2017;25(6):527-531
Objective To investigate the prevalence of depression in children with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and analysis its risk factors. Methods A total of 225 children with T1DM were divided into 2 groups according to BDI score:T1DM+depression group (n=123,BDI>10) and T1DM group (n=102,BDI≤10).Then,the subjects in T1DM+depression group were divided into mild depression subgroup (n=42,102 times/d were higher in T1DM+depression group than in T1DM group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(2) Age,BMI,FPG,HbA1c,insulin doses and ratio of insulin injection>2 times/d were higher in severe depression subgroup than in mild subgroup and medium subgroup,DM course and ratio of insulin injection≤2 times/d were lower in severe depression subgroup than in mild subgroup (P<0.05 or P<0.01).(3) Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that age,DM course,FPG,HbA1c,incidence of DKA and hypoglycemia,insulin doses and insulin injection>2 times/d were the influencing factors for BDI levels.Logistic regression analysis showed that girl,long DM course,insulin injection>2 times/d,high HbA1c,high incidence of DKA and hypoglycemia were risk factors for depression in T1DM children (P<0.05). Conclusion The higher occurrence of depression in T1DM children indicates that early screening and intervention is necessary.Children with risk factors should be given more psychological care to prevent the occurrence of depression.

Objective:To study the regulatory effects and mechanisms of deleted in lymphocytic leukemia 1 (DLEU1), microRNA-513a-5p (miR-513a-5p), and RAN binding protein 2 (RANBP2) in nephroblastoma.Methods:The GHINK-1 cells were transfected with pcDNA (pcDNA group), pcDNA-DLEU1 (pcDNA-DLEU1 group), miR-NC (miR-NC group), miR-513a-5p mimics (miR-513a-5p group), pcDNA-RANBP2 (pcDNA-RANBP2 group), pcDNA-DLEU1 and miR-NC (pcDNA-DLEU1+ miR-NC group), pcDNA-DLEU1 and miR-513a-5p mimics (pcDNA-DLEU1+ miR-513a-5p group), miR-513a-5p mimics and pcDNA (miR-513a-5p+ pcDNA group), miR-513a-5p mimics and pcDNA-RANBP2 (miR-513a-5p + pcDNA-RANBP2 group). Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expressions of DLEU1, miR-513a-5p, RANBP2 in nephroblastoma tissues, normal adjacent tissues, normal kidney cell HK2, and hemangioblastoma cell GHINK-1. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 related X (Bax). Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) was used to detect the cell survival rate. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate. Dual luciferase report test was used to detect the luciferase activity of cells.Results:The expression levels of DLEU1, miR-513a-5p and RANBP2 in adjacent tissues were 1.02±0.08, 1.01±0.06, 1.00±0.05, respectively, significantly lower than 5.16±0.24, 0.23±0.02, 1.67±0.09 in nephroblasts tumor tissues ( P<0.05). Their expression levels in HK2 cells were 1.00±0.06, 1.00±0.08, 1.02±0.09, respectively, significantly lower than 3.15±0.21, 0.18±0.01, 1.54±0.10 in GHINK-1 cells ( P<0.05). Overexpression of DLEU1 significantly reduced the apoptosis rate (7.35±0.41 vs 12.35±1.12, P<0.05). Overexpression of RANBP2 significantly reduced the apoptosis rate (8.89±0.48 vs 12.64±1.12, P<0.05). Compared with the miR-NC group (1.01±0.06, 0.99±0.06), the luciferase activity of DLEU1-WT (0.43±0.04) and RANBP2-WT (0.61±0.07) in miR-513a-5p group were significantly reduced ( P<0.05). Compared with anti-miR-NC group (0.99±0.07, 0.98±0.05), the luciferase activity of DLEU1-WT (1.34±0.11) and RANBP2-WT (1.39 ±0.13) in anti-miR-513a-5p group was significantly increased ( P<0.05). Simultaneous overexpression of pcDNA-DLEU1 and miR-513a-5p in GHINK-1 cells significantly reduced the apoptosis rate (11.34±1.03 vs 8.51±0.69, P<0.05). Simultaneous overexpression of miR-513a-5p and RANBP2 in GHINK-1 cells significantly reduced the apoptosis rate (9.96±0.72 vs 15.94±1.00, P<0.05). Conclusions:The long-chain non-coding RNA (lncRNA) DLEU1 can promote the proliferation and inhibit the apoptosis of nephroblastoma cells. The mechanism is related to the targeted regulation of miR-513a-5p and RANBP2 function, which will provide theoretical support for the nephroblastoma treatment.

Lycophytes and seed plants constitute the typical vascular plants. Lycophytes have been thought to have no paleo-polyploidization although the event is known to be critical for the fast expansion of seed plants. Here, genomic analyses including the homologous gene dot plot analysis detected multiple paleo-polyploidization events, with one occurring approximately 13-15 million years ago (MYA) and another about 125-142 MYA, during the evolution of the genome of Selaginella moellendorffii, a model lycophyte. In addition, comparative analysis of reconstructed ancestral genomes of lycophytes and angiosperms suggested that lycophytes were affected by more paleo-polyploidization events than seed plants. Results from the present genomic analyses indicate that paleo-polyploidization has contributed to the successful establishment of both lineages-lycophytes and seed plants-of vascular plants.
