Objective To explore the effects of early postnatal nutrition on adult-onset insulin resistance by an artificial nutrition intervention during the critical period. Methods On postnatal day 2, Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned randomly to overnutrition (SL), normonutrition (NL) and undernutrition (LL) via artificially adjusting the number of pups nursed per dam. Litter size was adjusted to 3 pups/dam, 10 pups/dam and 20 pups/dam for the SL, NL and LL groups, respectively. There were eight litters for each group. All the pups were nursed by their natural dams and fed with a standard rodent laboratory chow. The pups were weaned on postnatal day 21 and three male pups from each litter were separated. After that, all male rats were housed three per cage and fed standard chow until 16 weeks old. At 3 and 16 weeks, rats were killed after overnight fasting and blood was collected. Liver, gastrocnemius muscle and perirenal and epididymal fat pads were dissected and weighed to calculate relative mass after normalization for body weight. Physiological parameters, biochemical values and insulin resistance status, including serum insulin level, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), were dynamically monitored. Analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. Results (1) Before weaning, the body weights of SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats after postnatal day 10, and weights of LL rats were significantly lower than NL rats after postnatal day 7. After weaning, body weights of SL rats still remained heavier and weights of LL rats continued to be lower than NL rats (P<0.05). (2) At 3 weeks, the weights of liver and perirenal and epididymal fat pads in SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats, whereas LL rats were lower than NL rats (P<0.05). At 16 weeks, the weights of liver, epididymal fat pads and gastrocnemius muscle in SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats. Meanwhile, the weights of all detected tissues in LL rats were lower than the NL group. The weights of epididymal fat pads after normalization for body weight in the SL group were heavier than the NL group (P<0.05). (3) At 3 weeks, the fasting serum glucose level of the SL group was significantly higher than the NL and LL groups [(7.77±1.10) vs (6.33±1.20) and (5.80±1.51) mmol/L, respectively, F=13.217, P<0.01]. At 16 weeks of age, the serum insulin level in SL rats significantly increased compared to NL and LL rats [(0.31±0.11) vs (0.16±0.08) and (0.14±0.11) ng/ml, respectively, F=5.369, P=0.017]. For HOMA-IR evaluation, the index was significantly lower in LL rats compared to NL and LL rats at 3 weeks of age [(0.09±0.01) vs (0.25±0.01) and (0.31±0.05), respectively, F=25.923, P=0.005]. At 16 weeks, the index was significantly elevated in SL rats compared to NL and LL rats [(1.77±0.53) vs (0.84±0.44) and (0.83±0.67), respectively, F=5.765, P=0.015]. Furthermore, IPGTT was performed in all groups at 14 weeks of age. SL rats had significantly higher serum glucose levels at 60 min and a significantly increased area under the curve when compared to NL and LL rats (all P<0.05). (4) Serum from 16 week old SL rats was found to contain significantly higher levels of albumin, triglycerides and free fatty acids compared to NL rats (all P<0.05). Conclusions Early postnatal overnutrition induces persistent overweight and visceral white adipose accumulation in rats, while early postnatal undernutrition show the opposite effects. Early postnatal overnutrition may lead to adult-onset insulin resistance in rats. Avoiding overnutrition during the early postnatal period, a critical window for growth and development, may prevent or decrease later metabolic risks.

Objective To investigate couple's personality similarity effect on the marital quality,and to explore the vairance of such effect under different levels of spouse's depression. Methods The cross?sectional da?ta of 4644 couple from the national survey of mental health database in china( 2009) was used. Couples completed Locke ?Wallance marital adjustment test,The CES?D scale a self?report depression scale and Eysenck personality questionnaire short scale for Chinese version (EPQ?RSC). Results The personality similarities of couples(0.44 ±0.27) and their marital quality (wife (103.71±27.54),husband (106.15±26.94))had significant positive corre?lation ( r=0.25~0.27, P<0.01). Regression analysis showed the effect of personality similarity on the marital quality were varied according to the level of spouse depression( β=0.09?0.22, P<0.05) . Among participants whose husband or wife had higher level of depression,couple's personality similarity had stronger effect on his/her per?ceived marital quality. Conclusion Husband and wife personality similarity is related to marital quality signifi?cantly,and the spouse depression plays a significant moderating role in this relationship.

Objective:To investigate the modulating effects of anti-epidermal growth factor monoclonal antibody Cetux- imab(C225)on the ehemosensitivity and radiosensitivity in a Docetaxel-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A-1/doeetaxel.Methods:Radiosensitivity of SPC-A-1/docetaxel was determined by clone formation experiment and quantified by calculating the enhancement ratio(ER).The growth inhibition of SPC-A-1/docetaxel cell line caused by C225 or combination of C225 and Docetaxel in different orders was detected by MTT assay.The effect of C225 on cell cy- cle distribution and apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry.Results:C225 combined with radiation significantly de- creased the number of the cell clones than radiation alone;the D_0 values were 1.73 Gy for the former and 2.39 Gy for the latter,and the enhancement ratio was 1.38.C225 alone at concentration up to 1000?g/ml for 48h had neither cytotoxic nor eytostatie effect on SPC-A-1/docetaxel in vitro.C225 administration followed by Docetaxel significantly decreased the ICw of Docetaxel(85.2?g/ml vs 128.7?g/ml).Flow cytometry demonstrated that C225 exposure induced apoptosis of SPC-A-1/docetaxel cells in a time-dependent manner.The cell in the G_0/G_1 fraction increased from(43.80?4.46)% to (60.50?6.57)%(P

Objective To estimate the frequency of heart valvular involvement in Chinese patients with Takayasu arteritis (TAK) and its correlation with other clinical features. Methods Ninety-one patients with TAK were studied and their clinical manifestations, laboratory test, vascular images and echocardio - gra-phic findings were retrospectively reviewed. The data were compared between patients who had heart valvular involvement and those who had not. Mann-Whitney U-test or Student's t-test, Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test were used for analysis. Results Aortic regurgitation and mitral regurgitation were both confirmed in 20 (22%) patients. Tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary valve regurgitation were observed in 10 (11%) and 2 (2%) patients, respectively. Older age at onset, longer disease duration, hypertension and involvement of the ascending aorta were all significantly more frequent in TAK patients with aortic regurgitation (t=2.903, P<0.01; Z=-2.759, P<0.01; χ2=7.918, P<0.01; Z=-4.454, P<0.01) than those without. However, the constitutional symptoms and acute phase reactants [erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C reactive protein (CRP)] were not statistically different between patients with and without valvular regurgitation (P>0.05). Aortic valvular pathology examination of the three TAK patients who had underwent aortic valve replacement showed no inflammatory cell infiltration. Conclusion This study has demonstrated that heart valve involvement is common in patients with TAK, mainly in the form of regurgitation, and which may be secondary to hypertension and other cardiovascular complications. We should pay more attention to the screening and treatment of heart valvular involvement in TAK patients.
