Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mass and impaired micro-architectural structure, leading to an increased susceptibility to fractures. It is a complex, multifactorial disorder resulting from genetic factors, environmental factors and gene-environment interactions. Currently there are three opinions on the main pathogenesis of primary osteoporosis in traditional Chinese medicine: kidney deficiency, spleen deficiency, and spleen-kidney deficiency, in which disagreement remains. In this paper, the authors combine the modern etiology of osteoporosis to explain scientific connotation of the three opinions, aiming to comprehend the pathogenesis of primary osteoporosis and strengthen the communication between traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and trying to evaluate the clinical curative effect on osteoporosis.

Objective To study the impact of QseBC on the motility of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi ( S.Typhi ) . Methods The motility of wild-type ( WT) and null mutants (ΔqseB and ΔqseC) at mid-log phase was investigated by swimming assay.Quantitative RT-PCR was carried out to calculate the transcriptional variation of flhD and qseB among WT,ΔqseB andΔqseC.QseB overexpressing strain was constructed to compare its motility and flhD expression with the wild-type control.Results The result of motility assay showed that the motility of ΔqseB was similar to that of the WT strain , while the motility of ΔqseC was much lower than that of WT .qRT-PCR revealed that compared with WT , the expression of flhD was significantly decreased in ΔqseC while the expression of qseB was increased considerably .The motility of QseB overex-pressing strain was lower .Conclusion The expression of flhD may be regulated by QseBC which has an effect on the motil-ity of S.typhi, and the overexpression of QseB may inhibit the motility .

Objective To explore the effect of S100 calcium ion binding protein A6 (S100A6) on proliferation and migration of esophageal adenocarcinoma SK-GT-4 cells. Methods Lenti viruses were used to construct stable transfected cell lines (shNC and shS100A6). Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of S100A6. The inverted microscope and MTT were used to detect cell proliferation. The Transwell assay was used to detect cell migration. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of S100A6, p-ERK, p-Akt and its downstream molecular involved in proliferation and migration. Using U0126 ( inhibitor of MER1/2) and LY294002 ( inhibitor of PI3K) to detect the effect of these two inhibitors on cell proliferation and migration and the expression of p-ERK, p-Akt and its downstream molecular involved in proliferation and migration in shS100A6 cells. Results Stable cell lines of knockdown S100A6 were constructed. Knockdown S100A6 promoted cell proliferation and migration. Western blotting result displayed that in shS100A6 cells, the levels of p-Akt and p-ERK increased, p21 decreased, cyclinDl increased, and the expression of β-catenin and vimentin, increased. U0126 and LY294002 inhibited the migration of shS100A6 cells. U0126 had no effect on the proliferation of shS100A6 cells, however LY294002 could inhibit the proliferation of shS100A6 cells. U0126 treatment on shS100A6 cells could decrease p-ERK and β-catenin expression. After shS100A6 cells treated with LY294002, p-Akt and β-catenin expression decreased, p21 expression increased and the expression of cyclinDl decreased. Conclusion Low expression of S100A6 promotes cell proliferation and migration, which may be mediated by activation of p-Akt regulating cell cycle progression to promote cell proliferation and by activation of p-Akt/p-ERK to regulate β-catenin to promote cell migration.

OBJECTIVETo identify potential mutation of COL1A1 gene in an ethnic Han Chinese family from Henan affected with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI).

METHODSPeripheral blood samples were collected from all 11 members of the family and 50 healthy adults for the extraction of genomic DNA. All exons and introns of the COL1A1 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and subjected to direct sequencing. Mutations found in the proband were analyzed through comparison with other members of the family, 50 healthy individuals and sequence from the GenBank.

RESULTSFifteen sequence variants were discovered, which included 1 missense mutation, 1 synonymous mutation and 13 intronic mutations. All of the 4 patients from the family were detected as having carried a novel heterozygous missense mutation (c.4193T>G, p.I1398S) in exon 50 of the COL1A1 gene. The father of the proband has carried the same mutation but had a normal phenotype. The same mutation was not found in other healthy members of the family.

CONCLUSIONThe OI type of this family may have been autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance or autosomal recessive associated with COL1A1 gene mutations.

The study was performed to examine the enterovirus 71(EV71) VP1 genetic feature and the epidemiology of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) in Xinxiang in 2011. Real-time RT-PCR was used for the detection of Pan-enterovirus, Coxsackievirus A 16(CA16) and EV71 from stool specimens of HFMD. The VP1 region was amplified from 10 EV71 positive samples and the products were sequenced. EV71 genotypes were characterized by homology and phylogenetic tree analyses. Additionally, epidemic data of Xinxiang HFMD in 2011 was analyzed. The results revealed that 73% of the specimens from severe cases were determined as EV71 positive, which was significantly higher than CA16-positive ones (19%) (P < 0.01). Ten EV71 strains isolated in Xinxiang belonged to C4a cluster of sub-genotype C4, with 2.8% nucleotide and 0.9% amino acid sequences divergence among them. At position 170 in VP1 gene, an alanine(A) was predominant in 9 isolates, while a valine(V) residue was observed in one isolate. Compared to the representative C4a strains which were closely related to Xinxiang isolates, the amino acid variations of the pre-dominant Xinxiang strains generally occurred at position 292, threonine --> alanine (T --> A). A total of 1118 HFMD cases were reported in Xinxiang in 2011, and 92% of them were younger than 3 years old; the incidence rate peaked in April and December, suggesting that it is very necessary to strengthen HFMD prevention and control even in cold weather.

Objective: To explore latent classes of college students aggressive behavior and its correlations with family care and the meaning of life among college students. Methods: A cross sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 5 094 students from three universities in Xinxiang City in December 2021, using Aggression Questionnaire (AQ), Family APGAR Index (APGAR), and the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ). Results: Aggressive behavior of college students was classifed into three potential categories:low aggressive behavior group (26.4%), moderate aggressive behavior group (48.5%), and high aggressive behavior group(25.1%). There were significant differences in latent classes of aggressive behavior among college students by gender, physical flexibility, exercise frequency, and sleep status ( χ 2=63.95, 169.86, 125.76, 325.24, P <0.01). There were significant differences in the sense of life meaning and the degree of family care among the 3 potential categories of aggressive behavior ( F=113.47, 231.82, P <0.01). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the sense of meaning of life ( OR =0.96, 95% CI =0.96-0.97) and family care ( OR =0.83, 95% CI =0.81-0.84) were significantly associated with three classes of aggressive behavior ( P <0.01). Conclusion Aggressive behavior among college students is associated with gender, exercise frequency, sleep status, meaning of life, family care, and physical flexibility. School, family and society should actively pay attention to students psychological characteristics and to provide corresponding support for aggressive behavior prevention and intervention.
