Objective: To study the effect of zinc deficiency(ZD)on the gene expression of vitamin D receptor(VDR)and CaBP in duodenal mucosa of rats. Methods: Thirty weaning male rats were randomly divided into three groups:ZD,paired-fed(PF),zinc adaquate(ZA). After 15 d feeding, took the duodenal mucosa to extract RNA,and measured the levels of VDR mRNA and CaBP mRNA in duodenal mucosa by real time fluorescent quantity PCR. Results: The VDR gene expression of ZD group was downregulated 88.89% as that of PF group,and 50.00% as that of ZA group. CaBP gene expression of ZD group was downregulated 80.16% as that of the PF group,and 88.50% as that of ZA group. Conclusion: Zinc deficiency, by changing the activity of VDR and the mRNA expression of VDR,affects the transcription of the target gene CaBP,and then the absorption of calcium that causes allo-osteogenesis.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of infliximab and traditional disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods Sixty patients with definite AS were treated with infliximab 5 mg/kg infusion at 0, 2, 6, 12 weeks and were followed up for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was proportion of ASAS 20 responders at week 12. The secondary endpoints were the proportion of ASAS 50, the change from baseline in Bath AS functional index (BASFI).The improvement of signs and symptoms of AS and physical function were evaluated. The statistical treatments were used t-test andA2 test. Results The proportion of ASAS 20 responders at 2, 6, 12 week was 70%, 83% and 93% respectively. The proportion of ASAS50 responders at patients at 2, 6, 12 week was 13%, 37% and 57% respectively. Results for other secondary efficacy endpoints showed that infliximab could provide substantial benefits to patients with AS by reducing clinical signs and symptoms and improving range of motion, physical function and quality of life. Ten percent of the subjects reported treatment- related adverse events. The most frequently occurred were upper respiratory tract infection, followed by gastrointestinal adverse events and infusion reaction. Most treatment-related adverse events were mild to moderate in severity and disappeared after drug withdrawal. Conclusion Infliximab has been demonstrated to be effective and is well tolerated in the treatment of AS.

Objective To explore the association between urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and neonatal asphyxia,and to clarify the application value of urinary lactate/creatinine ratio in forecasting the hypoxie-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)in neonates.Methods Using case-control study design method,40 cases of neonatal asphyxia infants were selected as asphyctic group and 40 healthy infants were used as control group.The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio in the first day after birth, urinary N-Acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG)/creatinine and the score of Apgar of 80 infants were detected.The relationship between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio,urinary NAG/creatinine ratio, as well as the score of Apgar and HIE were analyzed and compared in asphyctic group and control group.Results The Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min in asphyctic group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.01). The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and urinary NAG/creatinine ratio in asphyctic group 1 d after birth were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.01).There was significantly negative correlation between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and the 1-min and 5-min Apgar scores(r=-0.636,P<0.001;r=-0.883,P<0.01),but there was a significantly positive correlation between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and urinary NAG/creatinine ratio(r=0.433,P<0.01).Conclusion The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio may have decisive roles in prognosis evaluation of neonatal asphyxia,and so as the important foundation for the prediction of HIE.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary (COPD) has significant extra pulmonary effects, which could induce atrophy of peripheral skeletal muscle and respiratory muscles, and significantly influence the respiratory function and quality of life. Muscle nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation plays a key role in the skeletal muscle atrophy. This article discussed the potential mechanisms on how NF-κB signaling pathway increasing protein breakdown and reducing muscle regeneration. On this basis, we explored the role of NF-κB in skeletal muscle at-rophy in patients with COPD during exercise.

Objective To observe the influence of acupuncture treatment on parturition process.Methods 545 pregnant women delivered in our hospital were selected,excluding those with cesarean section indication.On voluntary principle and randomized principle,primipara aged from 22 to 30 who agreed with natural labor were divided into two groups:observation group and control group.Pregnant women in observation group were received acupuncture treatment during latent phase.The following indexes of the two groups were recorded and compared:labor time of the first stage and the second stage,the case for inertia of uterus,cesarean sections,postpartum hemorrhage amount and Apgar score of new-born.Results The labor time of the first stage and the second stage of the control group were (178.55 ± 56.87) min and (130.70 ± 77.22) min,and which of the observation group were (53.87 ±22.33) min and (33.25 ± 15.55) min,there was significant differenec between the two groups(t =3.97,4.11,all P ＜0.05).The differences in the pilot failed to cesarean section rate(14.2％ and 13.6％),postpartum hemorrhage and the perinatal outcome were not significant between the two groups.Conclusion Acupuncture and moxibustion can accelerate labor.

Objective To determine the Golgi dispersal in radiation damaged cells and the protective effect of vanillin derivatives.Methods Immunofluorescence, cell cycle analysis of flow-cytometry,Western blot,and clone formation were used.Results Immunofluorescence observation showed that the Golgi dispersal caused by 2 Gy 60 Coγ-ray was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner in the range of 4-10 Gy as was demonstrated by the fact that the Golgi area was significantly increased. When the irradiated cells were treated with the radioprotective agent VND3207, a vanillin derivative,the Golgi dispersal induced by radiation was significantly reduced.The radiation-induced Golgi dispersal was also displayed in a pattern of time-course after irradiation in the HeLa cells, and persisted at least to 36 h post-irradiation. Cell cycle test results indicated that the Golgi dispersal was not associated with the G2/M arrest triggered by radiation-induced DNA damage response.VND3207 could promote cell survival by plate colony formation assay.Conclusion The Golgi dispersal can be caused byγ-ray irradiation in a dose-and time-dependent manner, and VND3207 can provide a good protection against radiation injury associated with inhibited Golgi dispersal.
