Objective To explore the regulatory effects of thioredoxin on chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells. Methods RT-PCR was employed to clone the full-length cDNA of thioredoxin (Trx) from human drug-resistant gastric cancer cell line SGC7901/VCR. The sense and antisense eukaryotic expression vectors corresponding Trx were constructed and transduced into gastric cancer cells SGC7901 and SGC7901/VCR by lipofectamine, respectively. MTT assay was used to evaluate the sensitivity of gene-transfected gastric cancer cells and control cells to anti-cancer drugs in vitro. Results The results indicated that SGC7901 cells transfected with Trx sense vector showed significantly decreased sensitivity to vincristine, cisplatin and adriamycin, while SGC7901/VCR transfected with Trx antisense vector showed significantly increased sensitivity to these drugs. Conclusion All these data suggested that Trx might participate in the formation of multidrug resistance of gastric cancer cells and alteration of Trx could regulate chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells.

This study is to investigate the protective effect of rosiglitazone (RSG) against learning and memory impairment of APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. AD mice model was replicated by using 6-month APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. The learning and memory ability of mice was evaluated by Morris water maze and Western blotting assays was applied to measure the phosphorylation and O-glycosylation of Tau and neurofilaments (NFs) protein. The results demonstrated that RSG could reverse the learning and memory deficits of 3 x Tg mice significantly. It was also found that RSG could suppress the hyperphosphorylation of Tau and NFs protein levels and increase the glycosylation expression of Tau and NFs proteins in 3 x Tg mice brain. Together, RSG ameliorates cognitive impairments of 3 x Tg mice via the alleviation of the hyperphosphorylated Tau and NFs proteins burden in the brain.

Objective To explore the differences between patients withchronic mountain sickness (CMS) and healthy people in the microstructure of brain gray and white matter by using diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI). Methods 21 CMS patients were recruited to a study group and 20 healthy volunteers were assigned to a control group. Both groups received conventional MRI and DKI sequence scans. The mean kurtosis (MK) values ,radial kurtosis (RK) values and kurtosis anisotropy (KA) values in each region of interest (ROI) in the cerebral gray and white matter were measured and the same part of the left and right side ROI parameters was counted. The data satisfied the normal distribution and the paired samples t?test was used;the ROI parameters between the two groups in the same parts of the same side followed the normal distribution and the two independent samples t?test was used. Results The KA values in both sides of the anterior limb of internal capsule ,the MK values and RK values in bilateral caudate nucleus head and thalamus had side difference in CMS group. In both sides of the anterior limb of the internal capsule′s MK values,KA values and thalamus′s MK values,RK values existed side difference in the control group. The KA values of the right anterior limb in internal capsule were lower than those in the left in both groups;the right thalamus′s MK values and RK values were higher than the other side. The RK value in genu of corpus callosum differed significantly ,and it was lower the CMS group than in the control group. The difference of the KA values in corpus callosum ,the MK value in the left anterior limb of internal capsule ,the RK values in the left posterior limb of internal capsule ,the MK values in the right caudate nucleus head ,the MK values in bilateral lenticular nucleus and the MK values and KA values in the right thalamus were significant ,and they were higher inthe CMS group than in the control group. Conclusions The left and right cerebral hemispheric micro?structure is not exactly symmetrical between patients with CMS and healthy people living in high altitude areas , there are differences in some brain areas. The sensitivity and reactivity of brain tissue to high altitude hypoxia are different in patients with CMS ,there are various degrees of difference between the CMS and the normal in the corpus callosum,basal ganglia region and thalamus.

Objectlve To study the properties of goat tooth enamel electron spin resonance (ESR)dosimetry.Methods Tootll enamel samples of goats were achieved by combined mechanical and chemical treatment at the ages of l,2,3,5,and 6 years.respectively and 9 enamel samples of adult molar were obtained.These enamel samples were exposed to 137Cs γ-rays at the cumulative doses of 0,0.5,1.0,2.0,and 5.0 Gy,respectively.ESR spectra Was measured before and after exposure.Results The background signal of goat tooth samples W88 21.5,significantly lower than that of the adult molar samples(39.5).The dusimetric signal intensity of the goat enamel increased with the radiation dose in a linear manner just as that of the human molars.The average radiation sensitivity of the goat tooth samples was(34.3±1.9)/Gy,close to that of the human tooth samples.Conclusions Goat teeth can be used for retrospective radiation dose reconstruction when human teeth are unavailable,in order to previde scientific data for dose reconstruction accurately.

Objective: To measure the glycemic index of foods contained low carbohydratesand discuss the relationship between glycemic index and the amount of fat, carbohydrate, protein and diet fiber from these foods. Methods: According to the method of Wolver,the GIs of these kinds of foods had been determined and caculated by using 25 gram carbohydrates as control because of the low percent(10%)of carbohydrates in foods. Results: The results of GI in 13 kinds of the foods were worked out and there was negative correlation between diet fiber and GI. Conclusions: The inference factors of GI are not the kinds of carbohydrate but the amount of diet fiber in these foods.

Objective To develop a lower limbs rehabilitative apparatus and explore its effects. Methods From January to September, 2016, 28 children with spastic cerebral palsy were divided into control group (n=14) and observation group (n=14) randomly. The control group received routine rehabilitation, while the observation group received self-made lower limbs rehabilitative apparatus training addition-ally. They were assessed with Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM)-88 and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) before and three months after treatment. Results There was no significant difference in the scores of GMFM-88 and BBS between two groups before treatment (P>0.05), while they increased after treatment (t>6.124, P<0.001), and were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t>2.329, P<0.05). Conclusion Self-made lower limbs rehabilitative apparatus could help to improve the gross motor function and balance function in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
