Objective To investigate the possible role of protein kinase(PK) activity in the induction of AP-1 by ox-LDL in mesangial cells and to elucidate the upstream signal pathways involved in the ox-LDL-induced AP-1 binding. Methods Rat mesangial cells were randomly divided into the normal cells, ox-LDL-treated cells and PK inhibitor + ox-LDL-treated cells. Treatments with the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I, the PKA inhibitor H89, the PTK inhibitor genistein (GEN), the MEKi inhibitor PD98059, or the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 were applied prior to a 24-hour incubation of ox-LDL in mesangial cells. The phosphorylation of MAPK families was detected by Weatern blot analysis. AP-1 binding was determined by gel shift assay. Results Ox-LDL stimulated the phosphorylation of JNKi/SAPK and p38 MAPK( P 0. 05) . Bisindolylmaleimide I at 50, 100, 200 nmol/L appreciably reduced the ox-LDL-induced AP-1 binding. H89 at 0. 5, 5 umol/L significantly inhibited AP-1 binding by ox-LDL. GEN at 25, 50 umol/L did not reduce the AP-1 binding by ox-LDL, but when GEN rose up to 100 umol/L, the ox-LDL-induced AP-1 binding significantly decreased in mesangial cells. However, SB203580 and PD98059 did not reduce the ox-LDL-induced AP-1 binding in the present study. Conclusion Multiple protein kinases may involve in the stimulation of AP-1 by ox-LDL in mesangial cells.

Purpose　To study the effects of α-tocopherol on activator protein-1(AP-1)binding and TGF-β1 expression induced by high glucose in rat mesangial cells and further to clarify the molecular mechanism of antioxidant in treating diabetic nephropathy.　Methods　AP-1 binding of the rat mesangial cells exposed to high glucose was detected by gel shift assay.The Jun,Fos compositions of AP-1 dimer were determined by supershift assay.Protein expression of TGF-β1 was detected by Western blot.Additionally,the effects of α-tocopherol on AP-1 binding and TGF-β1 expression induced by glucose in rat mesangial cells were also studied.　Results　High glucose stimulated AP-1 binding of mesangial cells in time-and-dose-dependent manners .This AP-1 binding increase involved JunD and Fos as shown by gel supershift.Glucose also increased protein expression of TGF-β1 at same time.The increased AP-1 binding and TGF-β1 were inhibited with pretreatment with α-tocopherol in glucose-treated mesangial cells.　Conclusions　This study suggests that α-tocopherol can significantly inhibit AP-1 activity and TGF-β1 expression by glucose in rat mesangial cells,which may be one of its antioxidation mechanisms to retard diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To determine the in vitro antibacterial activity of levornidazole against 375 anaerobic isolates.Methods Agar dilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs)of levornidazole,3 comparators (metronidazole,ornidazole and dextrornidazole)against 375 anaerobic isolates.Results For anaerobic gram-negative and gram-positive bacilli,and anaerobic gram-positive cocci,levornidazole displayed activity similar to or slightly higher than that of met-ronidazole,ornidazole and dextrornidazole.Levornidazole showed good activity against B.fragilis,Bacteroides thetaiotaomi-cron ,Clostridium difficile ,Clostridium perfringens ,and Peptostreptococcus magnus .The MIC90 value of levornidazole a-gainst the above-mentioned anaerobes was 0.5,1,0.25,2 and 1 mg/L,respectively.However,levornidazole and the compa-rators had poor antibacterial activity against Veillonella spp.among anaerobic gram-negative cocci.Conclusions The in vitro anti-anaerobic activity of levornidazole is similar to or slightly higher than that of metronidazole, ornidazole and dex-trornidazole.Levornidazole has good activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive anaerobic bacilli,and gram-positive anaerobic cocci,suggesting its promising clinical use.

BACKGROUND:There are many methods in the clinic to treat pelvic fractures, mainly conservative treatment, internal fixation and external fixation. Conservative treatment often causes complications due to poor reduction after fractures. Fixation has good effects on repair of unstable fractures, but fixation is seldom used for pelvic fractures.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of internal fixation on unstable pelvic fractures, and compare with conservative treatment and external fixation.
METHODS:126 cases of unstable pelvic fractures from Longhua District People’s Hospital of Shenzhen City from January 2008 to June 2014 were divided into three groups:conservative treatment group, external fixation group and internal fixation group (n=42). After treatment, patients received X-ray examination. Lindahl imaging criteria were used as evidence. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated. Patients were regularly fol owed up after treatment. The recovery of limb function was evaluated according to Majeed standard. Repair effects, the excel ent and good rates of fracture healing and cal us growth were evaluated in the last fol ow-up.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:During the last fol ow-up, the total efficiency was 81%in the internal fixation group, 69%in the conservative treatment group, and 71%in the external fixation group, and results were significantly better in the internal fixation group than in the other two groups (P<0.05). The Lindahl and Majeed scores were significantly higher in the internal fixation group than in the other two groups (P<0.05). These results suggest that internal fixation for unstable pelvic fracture obtained better recovery effects and efficiency than conservative treatment and external fixation. Thus, the internal fixation is more suitable for patients with unstable pelvic fractures.

Objective: To understand the characteristics of KAP (knowledge, attitude and practice) related to the prevention of AIDS among young male MSM (man sex with man) in China, and to evaluate the comprehensive ability of AIDS prevention and associated factors to provide a scientific basis for the development of MSM AIDS prevention and control. Methods: From November to December 2019, sampling was recruited by using snowball sampling methods centered on Beijing and Tianjin. A cross-sectional survey of 222 young students MSM was conducted through an online questionnaire with information of general demographic characteristics, sexual behavior and HIV testing, psychological status and comprehensive ability to prevent AIDS. Results: Average score on comprehensive AIDS prevention knowledge was (87.64±6.41),with knowledge,attitude,and behavior score of (11.32±1.67)(54.87±3.36) and (52.18±4.30) respectively.The pass rate of knowledge, attitude, practice related to AIDS prevention were respectively 95.5%, 56.3%, and 27.0%. The separation rate of knowledge from belief was 42.8%, the separation rate of knowledge from behavior was 71.2%, and the separation rate of faith from information was 48.2%. Whether have received AIDS prevention education was related to knowledge qualification rate (P<0.01). Conclusion Current AIDS education is associated with the knowledge level of AIDS prevention among young MSM groups, but it is not enough to improve their attitudes and behaviors. The comprehensive ability of MSM in preventing AIDS among young students is still not optimistic. Intervention measures need to be further strengthened to improve the comprehensive ability of young students MSM group to prevent AIDS.

Objective: To identify the characteristics of social network and the association between ego-centric network and HIV status among young MSM Chinese students. Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted in Chongqing, Tianjin, Harbin and Xi an city from April to December 2017 and from March to May 2018. A mixed recruitment method of snowball sampling and RDS approach was used to recruit participants who reported information on social network and received HIV test. The Multiple Regression Analysis method was used to for the analysis of association between ego-centric social network and HIV status of men who have sex with men (MSM) among young students. Results: The sample included 547 participants who nominated 1 088 social partners in total with average age of 13 to 60 years old. The MSM with different sexual orientation from their social members (aOR=0.38), embedded in a large network (aOR=0.63), with a high individual betweenness centrality (aOR=0.27) were at lower risk of HIV-positive status; while MSM who differed greatly in education level with their social members(aOR=1.60), existed in sexual networks(aOR=1.41), existed in the “risky networks” (aOR=1.88) , with high network density (aOR=1.91) and a high individual degree (aOR=4.10) had higher risk of HIV-positive status(P<0.05). Conclusion MSM with great difference in education level from social members, existed in sexual networks, with a large network density and a high degree were exposed to higher risk of HIV-positive status.
