Sarcopenia and osteoporosis are two common diseases with adverse effects on the health of the elderly and share many characteristics.As target organs of the two diseases,muscles and bones are closely connected,not only in anatomy and physiology,but also in pathophysiological processes.Initially,mechanical stimulation was conducted to explain the relationship between muscle and bone at the macroscopic level.Currently,research is increasingly focused at the cellular and molecular levels.Both muscle and bone tissues can secrete a number of growth factors,cytokines,polypeptides,and so on.Myokines include fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2),myostatin,irisin,insulinlike growth factor-1 (IGF-1),interleukins,musclin,among others.Osteokines comprise osteocalcin,fibroblast growth factor-23,IGF-1,vascular endothelial growth factor,etc.In this review,we summarize the roles of myokines and osteokines in muscle-bone interactions.

After the relationship between academic library and construction of think tank was analyzed, the role of academic library in construction of think tank was elaborated from the aspects of professionals, literature resources, operation mechanisms and cooperative development.

Conclusion: The method is sensitive and simple, which can be used for the determination of palladium in bendamustine hydrochloride.

AIM:To investigate the effect of cigarette smoking condensate on histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and inflammatory mediators in mouse myoblast C 2C12 cells.METHODS:C2C12 cells were treated with cigarette smoke extract (CSE).HDAC2 siRNA was transfected into the cells using Lipofectamine TM 2000.The levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α) in the culture supernatants were measured by ELISA , and the expression of HDAC2 at mRNA and protein levels was determined by real-time PCR and Western blotting .RESULTS:The expression of HDAC2 at mRNA and protein levels in CSE group was lower than that in control group (P<0.05).The supernatant levels of IL-8 and TNF-αin CSE group were significantly higher than those in control group ( P<0.05 ) .When the cells were transfected with HDAC2 siRNA followed by CSE stimulation , the expression of HDAC2 at mRNA and protein levels was de-creased , and the supernatant levels of IL-8 and TNF-αwere significantly increased as compared with CSE group and control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Under the oxidative stress condition , C2C12 cells generate high levels of IL-8 and TNF-αby down-regulating the expression of HDAC2.

Objective To observe the effects of PM2.5 exposure on A549 cells,and explore the mechanism of toxicity. Method The concentra?tions of PM2.5 exposure were determined utilizing cell viability assay. The morphological characteristics of exposed cell were observed with trans?mission electron microscope. Using big date from RNA?Seq and qRT?PCR,the mechanism was explored. Results The final concentration of PM2.5 exposure was 50μg/cm2;morphological detection showed that chromatin condensation after exposure which was also found on the boundary of nuclear membrane. KEGG pathway analysis and interaction network were finished ,and 8 kinds of apoptosis?related genes were found to be in?volved in the process of damage. Conclusion PM2.5 induces apoptosis in A549 cells by stimulating the changes of apoptosis?related genes ex?pressions.

Objective To investigate immunogenicity and protection efficacy of the recombinant hypoxanthine-guanine-xanthine (HGXPRT) of Plasmodium falciparum expressed in Pichia pastoris. Methods 35 BALB/c mice were divided randomly into five groups: HGXPRT+ISA720 experiment group, HGXPRT+Freund experiment group, ISA720 adjuvant control group, Freund adjuvant control group, and blank control group. BALB/c mice were subcutaneously immunized three times with the HGXPRT protein formulated by either Freund or ISA720 adjuvants at a three weeks interval. Mice were bled via tail vein at 2 weeks after each immunization. Specific antibodies were detected by ELISA as well as IFAT using cultured parasites. The immunized mice were challenged with 105 P.yoelii 10 days after the third immunization and parasitemia was monitored daily by examining Giemsa-stained thin film. Results Strong immune response was induced by the HGXPRT antigen formulated with the adjuvant. Antibody titers of more than 1∶105 were detected after the third immunization while no specific antibody was detected in the mice immunized with adjuvants only. The antibodies against HGXPRT recognized the cultured parasite by IFAT. Four days after mice were challenged with P.yoelii, high parasitemia appeared in the two control groups, which were 24 h earlier than experiment groups. The mean parasitemia of HGXPRT+ISA720 experiment group(29.3%) was significantly lower than that of control groups (70.0%) (P

Objective To study the relationship between arterial compliance and diastolic dysfunction in essential hypertensive patients.Methods Fifty-one treated hypertensive patients and 47 normotensive controls were enrolled.Arterial stiffness was assessed by vascular e-TRACKING technology of ultrosonic.Tissue Doppler echocardiography combined with conventional Doppler echocardiography was used for assessment of left ventricular diastolic function and peak late diastolic velocity of mitral flow.The ratio of E/A,Em/Am and E/Em were measured.Results Compared with normotensive controls,hypertensive patients have increased arterial sclerosis index(?) [(10.5?3.8) vs control(8.1?3.4),P

Objective To investigate the precision, trueness, and accuracy of self-developed detection system in clinical chemistry.Methods This was a methodological evaluation.Take serum creatine kinase( CK) for instance, 6 serum sampleswith different leves ( on the upper or lower limit of the reference range or close to the medicine decide levels ( MDLs) , were collected for within-run precision( repeatability) and within-laboratory precision ( intermediate precision ) experiments.5 proficiency testing ( PT ) samples, 5 samples assigned value by reference method, and 40 fresh-frozen serums were measured and compared with reference method for trueness verification.Drawing method evaluation decision chart, calculating total errors and sigma level evaluation experiment based on the CV, bias, and allowed total errors(TEa)were used to evaluate the accuracy performance.The precision, trueness, and accuracy were compared with the quality indicators.Results The within-run precision and within-laboratory precision were less than the highest requirement of Chinese industrial standard.The mean bias was -8.96%, didn′t reachthe required standard (5.5%).After taking corrective actions, all samples but one ( -5.8%) met the required standard. Compared with the reference method, the mean bias on the MDLs was less than TEa.The performance points of the method evaluation decision chart indicated excellence performance.The total errors on MDLs were 14.2%, 10.4% and 7.6%, less than 15%.The sigma levels on MDLs were 5.9, 7.5 and 15, also achieved excellent level. Conclusions The precision, trueness, and accuracy performance of CK measured by self-developed detection system achieved excellent level of the Chinese industry standard, and the same results were found from different evaluation methods.

Objective To investigate the correlation between left ventricular remodeling and systolic function by mid-wall fractional shortening(mFS).Methods 51 cases of hypertension and 47 cases of healthy volunteers were enrolled and systolic parameters were measured as ejection fraction(EF), fractional shortening(FS) and mFS. Acorrding to left ventricular remodeling parameteres inclulding LVMI and RWT, hypertension group was divided into four subgroups. The correlation among these parameters were analyzed.Results Thicker left ventricular wall and lower mFS in patient with hypertension compaired with those in controll (P<0.05). There were negative correlation between mFS and RWTr=-0.42, P<0.05) and positive correlation between mFS and LVMI r=-0.67, P<0.01).Conclusion mFS is a valuable parameter compared with traditional parameteres such as EF and FS. There is a linear association between parameteres of ventricular remodeling and systolic function assessed by mFS in early stage of hypertension.
