BACKGROUND:An increase in activity of muscle contraction can induce transcription of a variety of signaling molecules to activate a large number of gene expression within the nucleus through proprietary signaling pathway OBJECTIVE:To review studies related the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator 1(PGC-1)and exercise induced skeletal muscle adaptations.METHODS:A computer-based online search of Pubmed was performed for relevant English articles published from January 1995 to January 2009 with the keywords of"PGC1,skeletal muscle,exercise,adaptations"The relevant articles about PGC-1 and exercise induced skeletaI muscle adaptations were included.and repetitive contents were excluded.PGC1 and mitochondrial oxidative metabolism,and exercise-induced skeletal muscle adaptation and PGC1s changed served as the evaluation indicators.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Of 57 collected articles,34 were classified and sorted according to the criteria.Endurance training results in profound adaptations for skeletal muscle,including mitochondrial biogenesis,capillary density,and fiber composition.Transcription factors are highly dependent on coactivator molecules to regulate training physiologic adaptation processes.The majority of transcription factors target genes are involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and metabolism.These transcriptional patterns may provide a basic framework for understanding the integration of mitochondrial biogenesis and function with signaling events that exercise induced energetic properties Post-transcription of PGC-1 alpha protein,there are a variety of protein modifications,with a variety of biological processes closely related to the possible adaptive mechanism of exercise-induced skeletal muscle.

Objective To introduce the operation method and curative effect of posterior dislocation and acetabular posterior column ( wall) fracture with greater trochanteric osteotomy via Kocher-Langenbeck approach. Methods 14 cases of posterior dislocation and ace-tabular posterior column( wall) fracture who were treated by greater trochanteric osteotomy via Kocher-Langenbeck approach were collected, and the surgical methods, intraoperative situation and postoperative recovery were analyzed. Results The mean operating time is 105 min and the mean bleeding volum is 600 mL. After operation, there were 5 cases of anatomical reduction;8 cases of good reduction;1 cases of unsatisfactory reduction. Among the patients, 7 cases were of excellent clinical effect;4 cases were of good clinical effect, 3 cases were of medium clinical effect. Heterotopic ossification occurred in 3 cases and traumatic arthritis occurred in 4 case. Both acetabular posterior col-umn ( wall) and trochanter osteotomy ends were healed, and there was no iatrogenic sciatic nerve and femoral head necrosis injury. Conclu-sion In treatment of posterior dislocation and acetabular posterior column ( wall) fracture, greater trochanteric osteotomy via Kocher-Lange-nbeck approach can provide excellent exposure, and it is conducive to the reduction and fixation of fracture and dislocation.

Objective In order to make a epileptic model in organotypic slice culture and to further investigate the epileptic pathology. Methods Immunohistochemistry, Fluoro-Jade B staining and BrdU labeling were carried out in the hippocampal slices with domoic acid treatment after 7 days of culture.Results Domoic acid could induce a series of pathological changes, such as, dispersion of granule cells(0.105±0.063) mm vs (0.057±0.012) mm, t = 4.8, P<0.01), neurogenesis in granular layer and cell loss of pyramidal cell and Mossy cell as well. Conclusions In hippocampal organotypic slices, domoic acid induced such pathological changes as human temporal lobe epilepsy and epileptic animal model. It is an ideal epileptic model for pathological, pharmacological and electronic physiological studies with great applicable prospect.

Objective To investigate the effect of cold pressed Camelina Sativa oil (CPCO) on growth performance and lipid metabolism of hyperlipemia rats. Method The rats were divided into control group (Cont),high fat diet group (HFD),fish oil group (HFD+FO),low dose CPCO group (HFD+LCPCO) and high dose CPCO group (HFD+HCPCO). The latter 4 groups were fed high fat feed. Fo and CPCO were given by gavage. Total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and HDL-C subtype levels in serum were determined at the end of 6w. The distribution of HDL-C particles was studied by agarose gel electrophoresis. Results HFD resulted typical hyperlipemia. Body weight,TC and TG level were significantly decreased,and HDL-C particles tended to be miniaturized and the HDL3 level increased by feeding Camelina Sativa oil as compared with HFD group. TC content in HFD+FO and HFD+HCPCO group was decreased 46.06% and 30.60% respectively. TG content in these two groups was decreased 25.81% and 22.72% respectively as compared with HFD group. Conclusion Chinese Camelina Sativa oil which contained high level of ?-linolenic acid(ALA)could prevent and cure hyperlipidemia by regulating blood lipid metabolism and protecting hepatic function.

Objective To compare the number of lymph node dissected by intraoperative lymphatic mapping guided D2 gastrectomy and that by standard D2 gastrectomy plus lymphadenectomy in patients of advanced gastric cancer. Methods In this study 20 advanced gastric cancer cases received intraoperative peritumor injection of carbon nanoparticles suspension ( group 1 ) and D2 lymphadenectomy was guided by the black-stained lymph nodes. 21 cases undergoing standard D2 lymphadenectomy served as controls (group 2). The number of lymph nodes removed and the condition of lymphatic metastasis in two groups, blackstained lymph nodes in group 1, and postoperative complications were compared. Results The average lymph nodes dissected in group 1 (35. 1 ± 13.4) were higher than in control group (26.2 ±7.8). The differences were statistically significant (t =2. 126, P =0. 034). The number of removed N2 and N3 lymph nodes in group 1 were more than that in control group. The total black-stained ration of lymph nodes was 52. 7% in group 1. The positive rate of lymph nodes was higher in black-stained lymph nodes (27.6%) than in unstained lymph nodes ( 10. 8% ) in group 1 and in control group ( 16. 9% ). The differences were also statistically significant ( x2 = 6. 034, P = 0. 016; x2 = 5. 142, P = 0. 023 ). Postoperative afferent loop obstruction developed in one case in group 1. Conclusions Lymphatic mapping guided D2 radical gastrectomy plus lymphadenectomy increases the number of lymph nodes dessected and improves the efficiency of positive lymph nodes excision for patients of advanced gastric cancer.

Objective To study the effects of the adult T cell leukemia virus type 1(HTLV-1) Tax protein on T lymphocytes self-reactive growth hormone(GH). Methods The expression of the growth hormone protein was measured by Western blot in TaxP and TaxN cells, which expresses HTLV-1 Tax or no. The location of growth hormone in the TaxP and TaxN cells were detected by LSCM(laser scanning confocal microscope). The level of growth hormone mRNA in TaxP and TaxN cells was measured by RT-PCR. The pGL2-GH-luc was transfected in TaxN and TaxP cells by Tfx-50-mediated transfection to assay transcriptional activity. The pNF-κB-luc, pAP-1-luc and pNFAT-luc was transfected into TaxP cells with pcDNA3.0-GH by Tfx50 to test bioactivity of the nuclear transcription factors. Results The mRNA and protein expression of GH could be promoted significantly by Tax. Relative to the TaxN cells, the transcriptional activity of GH was significantly increased about 6.37 times in TaxP cells(P<0.05). Overexpression of GH can increase the activity of NF-κB about 1.7 times in TaxP cells (P<0.05). Conclusion GH maybe involve in adult T-cell leukemia(ATL) through activating NF-κB.
