Aim To establish hyperlipidemic model and study the molecular mechanism of triglyceride (TG)disorder in hamsters.Methods The male ham-sters were randomly divided to control group fed with standard diet and model group fed with high-fat diet, both of the groups had been fed with diet for 4 weeks. The levels of serum TG,TC,LDL-C,FFA were detec-ted at the end of 2nd and 4th week.The hepatic TG, TC,LPL activity were detected by enzymatic method at the end of 4th week.The molecular mechanism was tested by real-time PCR.Meanwhile the effect of posi-tive drug fenofibrate on the model of hyperlipidemia in hamsters was investigated.Results Compared with the control,the serum levels of TG,TC,LDL-C,FFA in the model group increased 2.57,1.93,2.49,1.25 times at the end of2nd week,and 3.93,1.90,2.27, 2.29 times at the end of 4th week,respectively.The positive drug significantly decreased the concentrations of serum TG and FFA. The mechanism research showed that the hepatic AMPK,PPARα,CPT-1 mRNA decreased in hamsters fed with high-fat diet,and the SREBP-1 c,ACC,SCD-1 ,AGPAT2,DGAT2 mRNA ex-pressions increased.The hepatic ApoB mRNA expres-sion was up-regulated while the MTTP and LPL mRNA expressions were down-regulated slightly.LPL activity significantly decreased in model hamsters compared with the control.The alternations of these enzymes and receptors were the critical factors for TG disorder. Conclusion The hamsters fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks can form a good hyperlipemic model with HTG feature.AMPK,SREBP-1 c,ACC,SCD-1 ,DGAT2,AG-PAT2,PPARα,CPT-1 and LPL are not only the main mechanisms of TG disorder,but also the biomarkers of hypotriglyceridemic drugs.

Aim To establish the hyperlipidemic model and ex-plore the mechanism of hypercholesterolemia in hamster. Meth-ods Hamsters were randomly divided into the control and model groups. The hamsters in the control group were fed with the standard chow and the model group were fed with the high fat di-et. Serum lipids and CYP7A1 activity were detected by enzymat-ic method. The molecular mechanism of cholesterol metabolism was investigated by real-time PCR. Results In comparison with the control group, the concentrations of serum TC, LDL-C, TG and hepatic TC, TG were significantly increased in the model
group. The mechanism research showed that in hamsters fed with the high fat diet, the CYP7A1 activity and the mRNA expres-sions of hepatic LDL-R, SREBP-2, CYP7A1, LXRαwere down-regulated, the expression of hepatic FXR was up-regulated. Conclusion The hyperlipidemic model could be developed in hamsters fed with the high fat diet for 4 weeks. LDL-R, SREBP-2, CYP7A1, FXR and LXRαare the biomarkers of hypercholes-terolemia, and also the targets of hypolipidemic drugs.

As a standard framework of disability definition and measurement, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is widely used in disability statistics. This paper reviewed the progress of international disability statistics based on ICF in the fields of disability measurement tools and disability surveys. There were many disability measurement tools have been developed and applied. These promote international disability statistics and disability statistics system. The disability statistics in China was analyzed and three recommendations were put forward.
