Objective To investigate the expression of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in cultured astrocytes after in vitro hypoxia induced by CoCl2. Methods After primary culture and subculture, the astrocytes were placed in a controlled atmosphere culture chamber. Both control group and hypoxia groups were established.These groups were further divided into seven sub-groups according to the different time intervals: 15, 30minutes and 1,2, 4, 6, 12 hours, respectively (6 apertures for each group). The shape of the astrocytes in each group was observed with light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy ( TEM ). All groups were examined using in situ hybridization, real time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, immunocytochemistry and Western blot. The data was analyzed statistically with SPSS 13.0 software. Results There was significant consistency between the AQP4 mRNA and protein ( r =0. 85, P <0. 01 ). There was slight positive expression of AQP4 in a few astrocytes of the control groups. In the hypoxia groups, the expression of AQP4 increased within 15 minutes; the increase was most prominent between 1 and 4 hours( mRNA in hypoxia groups: 0. 26 ± 0. 04, 0. 31 ± 0. 02, 0. 36 ± 0. 04; control groups:0. 06 ±0. 01,0. 09 ±0. 01,0. 08 ±0. 01 )after hypoxia and became less between 6 and 12 hours; There was significant difference in the AQP4 expression between the hypoxia groups and control groups among different time points (t = 16. 51, 18.20, 15.26,all P<0. 01 ). The corresponding pathological changes were cellular edema, which was most prominent between 1 and 4 hours. Under TEM, increase in size of the nucleolus and swelling of endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria; these changes became more marked with time.Disruption of a few astrocytes was detected in the hypoxia groups at 12 hours. Conclusions The pathological change of astrocytes is cellular edema following hypoxia. There is a positive relationship between the presence and degree of cellular edema as well as the duration of hypoxia and the up-regulating of AQP4.These results imply that AQP4 expression is an important molecular mechanism of celluar edema of astrocytes.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of remote lifestyle intervention on the management of weight and related indicators in the overweight and obese population.Methods:A total of 400 individuals with overweight or obesity who participated in remote lifestyle intervention in the Health Management Department of Shenzhen People′s Hospital from May 2015 to December 2018 were included as the remote intervention group, and 400 individuals with overweight and obesity who matched their age and gender were selected as the control group. Dietician established individual WeChat groups with the remote intervention group, and the WeChat platform was used to conduct remote lifestyle intervention for them, including setting weight control goals, giving timely feedback to the food log based on photos, providing exercise guidance and psychological support. The control group received personalized diet and exercise prescriptions, but did not receive remote intervention. After adjusting the data by propensity score matching method, univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the management effect of weight and related indicators in the two groups after one year.Results:After one year of intervention, effective data were obtained from a total of 755 cases (371 cases in the remote intervention group and 384 cases in the control group), and effective data were retained from 446 cases (223 cases in the remote intervention group and 223 cases in the control group) after bias matching. The body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, and serum uric acid of the remote intervention group [(24.85±2.52) kg/m 2, (110.21±10.53) mmHg, (4.96±0.65) mmol/L, (1.25±0.82) mmol/L, (4.87±1.11) mmol/L, (2.88±0.74) mmol/L, and (306.01±95.66) mmol/L respectively] were significantly lower than that of the control group [(27.76±2.28) kg/m 2, (121.14±14.07) mmHg, (5.10±0.87) mmol/L, (1.54±0.83) mmol/L, (5.28±0.96) mmol/L, (3.13±0.80) mmol/L, (355.16±92.68) mmol/L respectively] (all P<0.05). After intervention, intervention was consistently being influencing factors when BMI was reduced by 4%―12%, ( P<0.05). The probability of a 12% reduction in BMI in the remote intervention group was 112.486 times higher than that in the control group (95% CI: 16.852-890.266). At the same time, the initial BMI was an influential factor for the restoration of normal BMI. For every 1 kg/m 2 decrease in the initial BMI, the probability of restoration of normal BMI was 4.76 times higher than that before the decrease (95% CI: 3.222-5.057). Conclusions:Remote lifestyle intervention has a certain effect on the management of weight and related indicators in the overweight and obese populations. It has significant effect on weight loss of overweight and mildly obese people, but has limited effect on moderate and severe obese people.
