Objective To Analysis the physical fitness participation of 1243 community residents and to provide the scientific basis for developing intervention strategies. Methods The study was based on data of Physical Activity Questionnaire collected in Nutrition and Health Survey 2006 in Putuo, Shanghai. 1 243 subjects aged 6 years and above were involved. Results 43.8% of community residents had participated in physical exercise. Participation ratio was 41.4% in male, lower than that in female (45.8%). Participation ratios among aged 6yr～, 18yr～, 45yr～, 60yr～ were 48.1%, 25.2%, 22.0%, 64.9% in male and 40.8%, 22.5%, 40.1%, 67.1% in female. Participation ratios among age groups were significantly different (P=0.000). Proportion for frequent exercise of all age groups were 25.0%, 11.9%, 19.7%, 64.9% for male and 21.1%, 15.0%, 37.4%, 66.3% for female. There were difference among age groups (P= 0.000). Conclusion Specific intervention measures should be developed for different kind of people.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of three neurological assessments in experimental autoim?mune encephalomyelitis. Methods Thirty-two female C57BL/6 mice (18-20g) were randomly divided into normal group (n=15) and immune group (n=17). Immune group were induced subcutaneously in the flank by emulsion consisted of MOG33-35 and complete Freund’s adjuvant. Mice were assessed by two investigators for 35 days after immunization in a blinded manner using Kono’s 5-point criterion, Weaver’s 15-point criterion and improved 15-point criterion. Based on H&E staining, we analyzed the accuracy, sensibility and dependency of three assessments. Results 35-day clini?cal-score plots revealed that the fluctuation of symptoms was more obvious in improved 15-point criterion compared with the other two criteria. 15-point criterion and improved 15-point criterion are more accurate than 5-point criterion in atypical-onset EAE. 15-point criterion and improved 15-point criterion could detect the neurological deficits much earli?er than 5-point criterion (P<0.001). Neurological scores assessed by improved 15-point were well correlated with the pathological findings during the peak and remission stage. Conclusion Improved 15-point criterion is better neurological score system than Kono’s 5-point criterion and Weaver’s 15-point criterion because of its accurate assessment of the neurological deficits in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Objective Benzoquinone ansamycin antibiotic, geldanamycin (GA), is a new anticancer agent that could inhibit Hsp90 by occupying its NH2-terminal ATP-binding site. This study was to investigate the antitumor efficacy of GA on Her2/neu tyrosine kinase overexpressing human breast cancer cell line SKBr3. Methods The degradation of Her2/neu tyrosine kinase was analyzed by Western blotting, the proliferation index was determined by MTT assay,cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry, Cyclin D1 mRNA transcription was measured by RT-PCR and real-time PCR, and cell motility was evaluated by the cell culture insert model. Results GA induced a dose- and a time-dependent degradation of the Her2/neu tyrosine kinase protein and concurrently, the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation. The antitumor effects mediated by GA included: GA treatment decreased the survival rates of cancer cells,and led to a dase-dependent G1 arrest. Furthermore, this antitumor effect was proved to be related to declined transcription of Cyclin D1. Concurrently, the motility of cancer cells was reduced by GA. Conclusion GA treatment could induce the degradation of Her2/neu tyrnsine kinase efficiently, inhibit cancer cell proliferation and reduce motility in Her2/nen tyrosine kinase overexpressed human breast cancer cell line SKBr3.

A novel series of benzyl urea analogues based on the structural modification of sorafenib were synthesized. Their in vitro antitumor activities against MX-1, HepG2, Ketr3 and HT-29 were evaluated using the standard MTT assay. While several target compounds showed inhibitory activity against multiple cancer cell lines, compound 9 was of particular interest, demonstrating IC50 values (5.69-13.6 micromol x L(-1)) comparable to those of sorafenib. Furthermore, compounds 20 and 23 showed more potent inhibitory activity against HT-29 and MX-1 when compared to sorafenib. In particular, compound 20 bearing the N-3-pyridyl moiety not only exhibited greater inhibitory activity against HT-29 cell line (IC50 3.82 micromol x L(-1)), but also had improved solubility at pH 7.2, is worthy of further investigation as a lead to identify novel antitumor agents.

Objective To explore the value of CT venography in the surgical treatment of falcotentorial junction meningiomas. Methods CT venography was carried out in 25 patients with falcotentorial junction meningiomas. 2-D and 3-D images were reformatted at the workstation. The classification and relationship between the tumors and veins were determined, and the degree of venous stenosis and collateral were assessed. The safe surgical pathway was chosen to avoid the injury of main draining vein. Results Falcotentorial junction meningiomas were divided into 5 types according to the relationship between the tumors and veins and the direction of the tumors. There were 5 cases of forward type, 4 cases of backward type, 3 cases of inferior type, 6 cases of superior type and 7 cases of lateral type in this group. The relationship between tumors and veins was accordant with the findings in surgery. Of all 25 cases, 19 underwent total removal, 6 underwent subtotal removal and all of the main driving veins were reserved. There were 3 cases of quadrantanopsia or hemianopsia after the operation, and all of them recovered after 3 months of follow-up. Conclusion CTV technique can classify the falcotentorial junction meningioma and is helpful for choosing the appropriate surgical approaches.

Background Corneal transplantation is the most reliable and effective means to treat the corneal blindness in the clinical,immune rejection is a major cause of corneal graft failure after the keratoplasty.Objective This study aimed to investigate the role of Tim-1 in the immune reaction following corneal transplantation in rats.Methods Forty clean female Wistar rats were randomized into normal control group,autologous corneal transplantation group and allogeneic corneal transplantation group.Penetrating corneal transplantation was performed with the Wistar rat donors and Wistar rat receipts in the autologous corneal transplantation group,while with the SD rat donors and Wistar rat receipts in the allogeneic corneal transplantation group.The corneal graft diameter was 3.5 mm and the plant bed diameter was 3.0 mm.The inflammatory response of the grafts was examined under the slit lamp microscope 7 days and 14 days after operation and scored based on the criteria of Larkin.Rejection index (RI),mean survival time and survival rate were calculated.The histopathological examination was performed 7 days and 14 days after surgery to evaluate the inflammatory manifestation,and the expressions of Tim-1 protein and mRNA were assayed by immnunochemistry and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR)in the time points mentioned above.Results Mild edema of the grafts were found 7 days after operation in both the autologous corneal transplantation group and the allogeneic corneal transplantation group.In postoperative 14 days,the grafts were clear in the autologous corneal transplantation group,but the thickening,neovacularization and cloudy of the grafts were exhibited in the allogeneic corneal transplantation group.The survival rate of the grafts was 100％ in the autologous corneal transplantation group and that of the allogeneic corneal transplantation group was 0 with the survival time of (9.8±1.2) days.Histopathological examination revealed the stromal infiltration of inflammatory cells in both the autologous and allogeneic corneal transplantation groups in the seventh day,however,the inflammatory cells were obvious decreased in the autologous group but increased in the allogeneic corneal transplantation group in the fourteenth day.Immunochemistry showed a gradually declined positive cells for Tim-1 protein in the autologous corneal transplantation group,but the positive cells were exactly elevated in the allogeneic corneal transplantation group from 7 days through 14 days after operation;While only few positive cells were seen in the normal control group.The expression levels of Tim-1 mRNA in the grafts were 1.24 ± 0.03,5.85 ± 0.08 and 6.54 ± 0.20 in the normal control group,autologous corneal transplantation group and that of the allogeneic corneal transplantation group,respectively,in the seventh day,and in the fourteen day after operation,the expression level declined to 1.54 ±0.10 in the autologous corneal transplantation group and elevated to 8.62±0.24 in the allogeneic corneal transplantation group,showing significant differences among the different groups and various time points (Fgroup =3 277.590,P =0.000 ; Ftime =136.000,P =0.000).Conclusions Tim-1 may play an important role not only in the inflammatory response but also in the rejection reaction of the corneal transplantation.

Succinic acid is regarded as C4 platform chemical, which has a huge potential market with wide applications in biopolymer, food, medicine, and so on. Production of succinic acid by microorganism fer-mentation has attracted much attention in recent times. By fermentation, succinic acid could be produced from renewable resources in place of petroleum with low cost and low pollution; especially CO2 could be fixed by microorganism to form the product, which is a promising way to deal with the green gas. Some E. coli have been chosen as good succinic acid producing strains because of their clear genetic backgrounds, convenience to be modified and controlled, and good growth properties with low nutrients requirements. The progress of genetic engineering strategy and metabolic engineering technology for construction of succinic aicd producing recombinant E. coli has been introduced in this paper with the discussion of the future re-search in this area.

Objective To observe the expression of AdipoQ in Sj?gren's syndrome (SS) mice and its role in inflammation was investigated by recombinant gene transfection study in vivo. Methods As spon-taneous SS mice model, a total of 30 NOD mice were divided into 3 groups randomly: recombinant adenovirus (rADV-AdipoQ) group, normal saline control and simple adenoviruses (control group). The submandibular gland morphology, histopathological grading and the level of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), AdipoQ was compared between the three groups. The expression of AdipoQ on mice submandibular gland was assessed by means of semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Results The submandibular glands of the mice of the control group were destructed, with focal lymphocytic infiltration and acinus atrophy. Compared with control model groups, the serum TNF-α and salivary gland AdipoQ expression was significantly down-regulated in the rADV-AdipoQ group [(248 ±30) vs (162 ±73) ng/ml] (P<0.05). Conclusion AdipoQ gene transfected SS mice can significantly improve the morphological features of tissues and decrease the concentration of TNF-αin serum, in addition, it can effectively inhibit inflammation, decrease the degree of protein and AdipoQgene expression. So the AdipoQ may be the protective gene in SS mice.
