Objective To explore the correlation of urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio,UACR) and blood pressure in young people.Methods Totally 200 cases of hypertensive patients (aged 18 ～50 years old) from January 2012 to March 2014 and 200 healthy volunteers who had medical examination in our hospital were selected with a random sampling method for staff questionnaires,biochemical tests,and physical examinations.Biochemical tests included kidney function,blood glucose,blood lipids,blood uric acid,and UACR.First,400 cases were divided into four groups (1,2,3,and 4 groups) according to UACR quartiles from low to high.Second,400 cases were divided into three groups according to their blood pressure:normal blood pressure,prehypertension,and hypertension.The correlation of UACR and different groups of blood pressure was analyzed.Results For norm blood pressure group,prehypertension,hypertension,the corresponding UACR level (median:25％ ～ 75％ quartile) was 0.8 (0.6 ～ 1.2) mg/mmol,0.9 (0.7 ～ 1.4) mg/mmol,1.0 (0.8 ～ 1.7) mg/mmol;positive UACR rate was 0,2.6％,and 34.7％,three groups UACR levels and positive UACR rate index differences were statistically significant (P ＜0.05).After age factor was adjusted for 400 cases,both systolic and diastolic blood pressures were positively correlated with UACR levels.After body mass index,age,total cholesterol,and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were adjusted for 400 cases,compared to group 1,the ratio of prehypertension to hypertension (95％ confidence intervals) in groups 2,3,and 4 was 0.98 (0.80 ～ 1.20),1.29 (1.05 ～ 1.58),and 1.86 1.52 ～2.28).Conclusions Urinary albumin/creatinine ratio was positively correlated with prehypertension and hypertension in young people.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with the characteristics of holistic view and treatment based on syndrome differentiation, has rich clinical experience thousands of years and demonstrates promising effects to cure complex disease. However, due to the features of multi-component, multi-target and synergistic effect existed in TCM, the effective substances and mechanisms of action are not clear, the qualities of TCM are out of control, and scientific and correct assess system is waiting to be established. The network pharmacology is a novel subject based on the construction of multi-layer networks of disease-phenotype-gene-drug to predict the drug targets in a holistic view, and promote efficiency of drug discovery. Methodologically, network pharmacology integrated the notions of comprehensive research and systematic assessment which agree with the characteristics of holistic view and treatment based on syndrome differentiation in Chinese medicine. Our paper reviewed the challenge and chance within the modernization of TCM, the concept and technology of network pharmacology, and its preliminary application in investigation of TCM. The theoretical system of network pharmacology is emphasized, and the potential prospect of its application in modernization in TCM is focused.

Objective To investigate metabolic characteristics and insulin resistance in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes pa-tients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease .Methods Two hundred patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus including 140 with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) (NAFLD group) and 60 without NAFLD (non-NAFLD group) were recruited. Metabolic characteristic were measured and recorded .homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance ( HOMA-IR) index and HOMA-C were used to assess insulin resistance .Results were compared between two groups .Results Compared with non-NAFLD group, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose (FBG),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), uric acid ( UA) , triglyceride ( TG) , low density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) ,fasting insulin ( FINS) , fasting C peptide ( FCP) , gly-cated hemoglobin a1c (HbA1c), HOMA-IR, and HOMA-C were significantly higher in the NAFLD group ( P <0.05).Logistics re-gression analysis showed that BMI , TG, GGT, and UA were risk factots for NAFLD ( P <0.05, OR =1.82, 1.53, 1.37, and 1.09 ) .Conclusions Compared patients without NAFLD , newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients with NAFLD present more meta-bolic disturbance, and severely insulin resistance.Obesity and the increased level of postprandial UA , triglyceridemia, and GGT might increase the risk of NAFLD in the patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus .

Object Effects of Bacillus licheniformis (Weigmann) Chester C2-13 on antioxidative activities of dried flower of Carthamus tinctorius L. (DFCT) were studied. Methods Clearance of hydroxyl radical was determined by 1, 10-phenanthroline-Fe~(2+) oxidative assay. The hemolysis of red blood cells, MDA production in hematocytolysis liver homogenate were measured by colorimetric assay. Products of fermentation were analyzed by HPLC. Results C2-13 can increase greatly antioxidative activities of DFCT. Using HPLC assay, it is observed that the fermentation and processing by the strain can improve the effective components of DFCT. Conclusion Some effective components of DFCT may be biotransformed by C2-13, so that the antioxidative activities are promoted.

In this experiment, we introduced human interleukin-2(lL-2)gene and Neomycin resistance (Neo~R) gene into a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line GLC, using a retroviral vector PLXSN. The positive cells obtained by selecting in G418 were compared with the wild-type cells. We observed their growth characteristics in vitro and the quantity of IL-2 in the culture supernatants. PCR result demonstrated the integration of foreign genes into tumor genome DNA after transfection and permanent existence. Under electron microscope, what can be seen was the surface villi of trans-duced-cells are less and shorter. It deserves further investigation to determine whether the change of cell surface influence metastatic ability of cells.
