This study is to investigate the effect of curcumin on the induction of glutathione Stransferases (GST) and NADP(H):quinone oxidoreductase (NQO) and explore their possible molecular mechanism. The activity of GST, NQO and cellular reduced glutathione (GSH) content were measured by spectrophotometrical methods. Cellular changes in the distribution of NF-E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) were detected by Western blotting analysis. Nrf2-AREs (antioxidant-responsive elements) binding activity was examined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Treatment of HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells with curcumin dramatically induced the activity of GST and NQO at the range of 10-30 μmol·L-1. Curcumin exposure caused a significant increase in cellular GSH content rapidly as early as 3 h. Moreover, curcumin triggered the accumulation of Nrf2 in nucleus, and increased Nrf2 content in ARE complexes. These results demonstrated that induction of GST and NQO activity by curcumin may be mediated by translocation of transcription factor Nrf2 from cytoplasm to nuclear and increased binding activity of Nrf2-ARE complexes.

Magnesium alloys have been a hotspot in the field of implanted medical devices due to their biodegradable absorbability, excellent mechanical properties and good biocompatibility.The reduction in their rapid corrosion rates becomes the key to the application of implant medical device materials.In this paper, the latest research progress and the existing problems of magnesium alloys as the material for implantation of medical devices in the fracture internal fixation, bone tissue porous scaffold, and cardiovascular stent are reviewed.Improving corrosion resistant of magnesium alloys by means of alloying, improving purity, surface modification,rapid solidification, deformation processing, non crystallization and preparation of nano alloy technology in body fluid are expounded, and research direction and application prospect of magnesium alloys in the field of implanted medical devices are also expected.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of internal fixation using cannulated screw combined with fibular allograft and internal fixation using cannulated screw alone in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 75 young and middle-aged patients with femoral neck fracture admitted to the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2020 to December 2022, including 44 males and 31 females, aged 34-56 years [(46.1±12.7)years]. According to Garden classification, 26 patients were classified as type II, 35 type III and 14 type IV. According to the Pauwels classification, 9 patients were classified as type I, 31 type II and 35 type III. Forty-nine patients were treated with internal fixation using three cannulated screws alone (cannulated screw group) and 26 with internal fixation using three cannulated screws combined with double-barrel fibular allograft (cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, and quality of fracture reduction were compared between the two groups. At 4, 8 months after operation and at the last follow-up, grading of femoral neck shortening, number of patients walking with crutches, Barthel index, and Harris hip function score were evaluated. The incidence of complications was measured at the last follow-up.Results:All the patients were followed up for 16-37 months [(23.2±4.5)months]. The operation time of the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group was (86.3±16.1)minutes, longer than (76.9±20.8)minutes of the cannulated screw group ( P<0.05). The intraoperative blood loss was 100.0(50.0, 200.0)ml in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group, more than 50.0(50.0, 100.0)ml in the cannulated screw group ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the length of hospital stay or the quality of fracture reduction between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 4 months after operation, grading of the femoral neck shortening in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group [24 patients (92.3%) with grade 1, 2(7.7%) with grade 2, and 0(0.0%) with grade 3] was better than that in the cannulated screw group [18 patients (36.7%) with grade 1, 28(57.1%) with grade 2, and 3(6.2%) with grade 3] ( P<0.01). At 8 months after operation, grading of femoral neck shortening in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group [22 patients (84.6%) with grade 1, 3(11.5%) with grade 2, and 1(3.8%) with grade 3] was better than that in the cannulated screw group [13 patients (26.5%) with grade 1, 27(55.1%) with grade 2, and 9(18.4%) with grade 3] ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, grading of femoral neck shortening in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group [19 patients (73.0%) with grade 1, 5(19.2%) with grade 2, and 2(7.6%) with grade 3] was better than that in the cannulated screw group [8 patients (16.3%) with grade 1, 31(63.2%) with grade 2, and 10(20.4%) with grade 3] ( P<0.01). At 4, 8 months after operation and at the last follow-up, 12(46.2%), 8(30.8%) and 5(19.2%) patients in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group and 38(77.6%), 27(55.1%) and 20(40.8%) patients in the cannulated screw group had to walk with crutches, respectively, showing significant difference between the two groups at the other two time points ( P<0.05 or 0.01) except for at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). The Barthel index values were 85.3±3.2, 90.3±4.3, and 95.3±3.9 in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group at 4, 8 months after operation and at the last follow-up, significantly higher than 80.8±7.3, 85.4±7.4, and 90.9±7.8 in the cannulated screw group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The Harris hip scores were (87.0±2.9)points, (92.0±2.9)points and (91.3±2.4)points in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group at 4, 8 months after operation and at the last follow-up, significantly higher than (81.0±6.1)points, (85.7±5.8)points, and (89.6±2.0)points in the cannulated screw group ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, the complication rate was 3.8%(1/26) in the cannulated screw combined with bone grafting group, significantly lower than 22.4%(11/49) in the cannulated screw group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged patients, compared with internal fixation using cannulated screw alone, internal fixation using cannulated screw combined with fibular allograft has more advantages in correcting femoral neck shortening, restoring independent living activities and hip joint function, and reducing the incidence of complications despite its longer operation time and more intraoperative blood loss.
