Objective Toinvestigate iodine nutrition,thyroid volume and function of children and women in high water iodine areas,and to discuss the cut-off point of water iodine level where should be defined as iodine excessive areas.Methods In iodine excessive townships in Xiaodian and Qingxu Counties of Taiyuan City,all villages were divided to 4 groups according to the concentration of iodine in drinking water:50 ～ ＜ 100 μg/L (Group A),100 ～ ＜ 150 μg/L(Group B),150 ～ ＜ 300 μg/L(Group C) and ≥300 μg/L(Group D),and 2-3 villages were randomly selected from each group as investigation sites.Two hundred children aged 8-10 and 60 women (20 pregnant women,20 breasffeeding women and 20 women of childbearing age,respectively) were sampled.Drinking water,edible salt and once random urine samples for each studying object were collected,and the iodine content was measured.The goiter volume of children aged 8-10 and triiodothyronine (FT3),free thyroxine (FT4),thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) of women were determined.Results Totally 708 children and 236 women were selected as respondents who ate non-iodized salt.Iodine content in drinking water of children in groups A,B,C and D was 73.8,144.7,258.5 and 501.0 μg/L,respectively,and that of women was 73.8,144.7,242.7 and 485.9 μg/L,respectively.Median urinary iodine of children in groups A,B,C and D was 274.3,312.8,455.6 and 793.5 μg/L,respectively,and that of women was 238.3,235.2,371.6 and 641.6 μg/L,respectively.The median urinary iodine of children and women increased with increasing water content of iodine.The goiter rate of children was 5.6％ (11/196),13.2％ (25/189),12.6％ (20/158) and 10.9％ (18/165) for each group,respectively,which also increased with increasing water content of iodine.In groups A,C and D,the FT3 and FT4 levels[pmol/L:(3.70 ± 0.59),(14.01 ± 2.44); (3.43 ± 0.57),(12.87 ± 2.12); (3.42 ± 0.47),(12.66 ±1.78)] in pregnant woman were lower than those in breasffeeding women[pmol/L:(4.26 ± ±0.57),(14.73 ± 2.36;(4.28 ± 0.40),(14.77 ± 1.19); (4.36 ± 0.65),(15.66 ± 2.84)] and women of childbearing age[pmol/L:(4.80 ±0.50),(17.47 ± 2.11); (4.21 ± 0.48),(15.83 ± 1.64); (4.26 ± 0.52),(15.53 ± 1.81)].With increasing water content of iodine,FT4 level was decreasing and TSH level was increasing gradually in women.Conclusions When water iodine exceeds 100 μg/L,goiter rate of children has increased significantly.Iodine excessive women and children have appeared one after another with increasing water content of iodine.Women incidence of subclinical hypothyroidism risk has increased with increasing water content of iodine,and the detection rate of subclinical hypothyroidism is significantly higher when water iodine is higher than 300 μg/L.The cut-off point of iodine excessive areas should be descend from 150 μg/L to 100 μg/L.

Objective To investigate the relationships of nuclear factor кB (NF-кB) activation with protein kinase B (Akt) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) during amyloid-β (Aβ) (25-35) -induced apoptosis in pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells) of rats. Methods Apoptosis in PC12 cells was induced by A(25-35). The activities of Akt, GSK-3β and NF-кB were analyzed in this process. The Akt and GSK-3β pathways were blocked by their specific inhibitors, respectively, and the relationships of Akt and, GSK-3β with NF-кB during Aβ(25-35)-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells were determined. Results Aβ(25-35) induced apoptosis was in a dose-dependent manner. With 0, 5, 10, 20 μmol/L and 40 μmol/L Aβ(25-35) treaing for 48 h, the apoptosis rates of PC12 cells were (3. 01 ± 0.03)%, (3.08 ±0.03)%, (25.32 ± 0.76)%, ( 42.88 ± 0.60 )% and ( 60.85 ± 2.39 )% , respectively. Compared to control, both Akt and GSK-3β were suppressed during apoptosis, at meantime NF-кB was activated. The inhibited Akt activity by wortmannin leaded to decreased NF-кB activatity and increased GSK-3β activatity. Suppression of GSK-3β with its specific inhibitor LiCl caused the decreased activation of NF-кB too, but it had no significant influence on Akt activity. Conclusions These results suggest that both Akt and GSK-3β are upstream regulators of NF-кB. They co-regulate the activation of NF-кB during Aβ(25-35)-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells. This study contributes to the theoretical base for the pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD) , and provides a new idea to AD prevention and therapy.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector for mouse microRNA miR-21 and identification its expression activ-ity in 293 cells. Methods The genomic sequence containing pre-miR-21 was amplified from mouse genomic DNA by PCR and cloned into the pRC/CMV plasmid. The constructed recombinant plasmid pRC/CMV-mmu-miR-21 was transfected to 293 cells by lipofectamine 2000, and the stably transfected cells were screened with G418,from which total RNA was extracted for detecting the expression of mature miR-21 by northern blot. In the meantime,a luciferase report plasmid examing the activity of miR-21 named pmiR-21-Luc reporter was also construc-ted,and luciferase activity analysis indicated the product of pRC/CMV-mmu-miR-21 indeed had biological activity. Results Both restriction enzyme digestion analysis and sequencing proved the recombinant plasmids were constructed correctly. The miR-21 was highly expressed in the screened clones of 293 cells and it had good biological activity. Conclusion The eukaryotic expression plasmid of mouse miR-21 was successfully constructed,which laid the foundation of further investigation of the role of miR-21 during skin wound healing.
