Objective: To investigate the achievement of the target for blood glucose control among community patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its influencing factors, so as to provide insights into developing blood glucose management strategies and intervention measures. Methods: Basic information, lifestyle, medication use, disease history, and HbA1c test results of T2DM patients aged 18 years and older and living in Jinshan District, Shanghai Municipality for more than 6 months were collected through Jinshan District Chronic Disease Follow up Management System and district-level information platform. The proportion of blood glucose achieving the control target (HbA1c<7%) was analyzed. Factors affecting the achievement of the target for blood glucose control were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 16 758 T2DM patients were included, with 7 844 males (46.81%) and 8 914 females (53.19%), and a median age of 69.00 (interquartile range, 12.00) years. There were 8 095 patients achieving the blood glucose control target, accounting for 48.31%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (60-69 years, OR=0.749, 95%CI: 0.675-0.832; 70-79 years, OR=0.892, 95%CI: 0.801-0.993; ≥80 years, OR=1.238, 95%CI: 1.086-1.411), body mass index (overweight, OR=0.926, 95%CI: 0.863-0.993; obesity, OR=0.800, 95%CI: 0.718-0.891), disease course (6-10 years, OR=0.728, 95%CI: 0.673-0.787; ≥11 years, OR=0.534, 95%CI: 489-0.583), smoking (daily, OR=0.792, 95%CI: 0.730-0.860), drinking (daily, OR=0.788, 95%CI: 0.642-0.967), medication adherence (intermittent, OR=0.293, 95%CI: 0.271-0.317; self discontinuation, OR=0.074, 95%CI: 0.064-0.087), hypertension (OR=0.643, 95%CI: 0.588-0.703) and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (OR=0.671, 95%CI: 0.563-0.800) were the influencing factors for the achievement of the target for blood glucose control among T2DM patients. Conclusion The blood glucose control among T2DM patients is mainly affected by age, body mass index, disease course, smoking, drinking, medication adherence and comorbidities.

Objective To explore the function of fluorescent probe JC-1 in detecting the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential(△?m)in early apoptotic cells.Methods After 2-ME was used to induce MUTZ-1 cell apoptosis,cells were dyed with fluorescent probe JC-1,and then the changes of △?m in the early stage of apoptotic cells were analyzed by flow cytometry or detected under fluorescent microscope. Results The control cells with high △?m are those forming JC-1 aggregates in the inner membrane of mitochondria,thus showing orange-red fluorescence.2-ME caused decrease of △?m in MUTZ-1 cells,in which JC-1 maintains monomeric form,thus showing only green fluorescence.The decreases of △?m were in a time-dependent manner,which were significantly higher than those in control group(P

OBJECTIVETo determine whether the cardioprotection of puerarin (Pue) against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury is mediated by mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel (mitoK(ATP)) and/or mitochondria calcium-activated potassium channel(mitoK(Ca)).

METHODSCardiomyocytes were isolated from male Sprague-Dawley rats and hypoxia/reoxygenation injury was induced by myocyte pelleting model. Cell viability was assessed by trypan blue exclusion and mitochondrial membrane potential was measured by loading with TMRE. The opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore was determined spectrophotometrically.

RESULTSPretreatment with Pue at 0.24 mmol/L for 5 min increased the cell viability against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury, while mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel inhibitor 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 100 micromol/L, 20 min) or mitochondrial calcium-activated potassium channel blocker paxilline (Pax, 1 micromol/L, 5 min) attenuated the effect of puerarin. The pretreatment with Pue at 0.24 mmol/L for 5 min attenuated collapse of delta-psim induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation injury, 5-HD and Pax abrogated the effect of Pue. In mitochondria isolated from hearts pretreated with Pue, a significant inhibition of Ca(2+)-induced swelling was observed, and this inhibition was attenuated by 5-HD and Pax.

CONCLUSIONThese findings indicate that Pue protects cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury via activating mitoK(ATP) channel and mitoK(Ca) channel, and inhibiting mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening.

This study was aimed to choose the best fixing method of electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement in mice by comparison of ECG index in three different fixing ways. Changes of ST amplitude and heart rate in ECG were measured in the self-made mouse sets, tape bundling or breathing anesthesia state. The amplitudes of the ST seg-ment in C57BL6 mice and β1/β2-AR double knockout mice were elevated in tape bundling or breathing anesthesia state in comparison with that in the self-made mouse sets (all P < 0.01). The heart rate under the tape bundling state in C57BL6 mice was significantly faster than that in the self-made mouse sets (P< 0.05 or P< 0.01). And the heart rate under anesthesia in β1/β2-AR double knockout mice was significantly slower than that in tape bundling state or the self-made mouse sets (both P < 0.01). It was concluded that relative to the binding and anesthesia method, fixing mouse in the self-made mouse sets, which can more truly reflect the physiological or pathological states, is a relatively good fixing method of ECG measurement in experimental study.

Objective To investigate the effects of Plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein 1(PvMSP1)on differentia-tion,maturation and function of dendritic cells(DC)and the mechanisms of PvMSP1 on the activation of DC via toll like receptors (TLR). Methods DCs were incubated with different doses of PvMSP1(1.0,10.0,100.0μg/ml)in vitro. The changes of CD83, CD86,and HLA-DR on DC were detected by flow cytometry(FCM);the expressions of cytokine IL-10 and IL-12 of DC were mea-sured by ELISA;the expressions of TLR4 and TLR9 mRNA of DC were measured by RT-PCR;the proliferation induction to autol-ogous lymphocytes of DC was measured by MTT. Meanwhile,the untreated DC and LPS inducing DC were as the negative control and positive control,respectively. All the data were analyzed statistically. Results Compared with the untreated DC,the propor-tions of CD83,CD86 and HLA-DR on DC induced by LPS and PvMSP1 increased significantly(all P<0.05);the expressions of IL-10 and IL-12 of DC induced by LPS increased significantly(P<0.01),and those induced by PvMSP1 also increased signifi-cantly(all P<0.05). In the LPS inducing group,the TLR4 mRNA production increased(P<0.05)and the TLR9 mRNA produc-tion had no significantly changes(P>0.05). In the PvMSP1-treated group,the DC TLR4 mRNA production increased(P<0.01) and the TLR9 mRNA production had no significantly changes(P>0.05);DC stimulated the proliferation of autologous lympho-cytes. Conclusion PvMSP1 enhances DC differentiation and maturation,and the mature DC induced by PvMSP1 has the ability of antigen presenting. The route for PvMSP1 inducing DC maturation might be TLR4 pathway rather than TLR9 pathway.

Objective To analyze if there are membrane estrogen receptors(ER)in endometrial carcinoma and if there is some relationship between membrane ER and nuclear ER.Methods The cell membrane and total cell ER?and ER?expressions of high and moderate differentiation endometrial carcinoma cells(Ishikawa and HEC-1A cells)were analyzed.Intermittent immunofluorescence dyeing and fluorescent microscopy were carried out with the ceils treated with polyformaldehyde and Triton X-100. Intermittent immunofluorescence dyeing and flow cytometry were carried out with the live cells and the cells treated with Triton X-100 respectively.Results There were fluorescences on the membrane of the Ishikawa and HEC-1A cells which were treated with polyformaldehyde.When the cells were treated with Triton X- 100,the fluorescences were also seen inside the cells.The fluorescence intensity of ER?and ER?in Ishikawa cell membrane(1.09?0.21,1.27?0.33)was stronger than the control,but there were no significant differences(P＞0.05).When treated with Triton X-100,the total cell fluorescence intensity of ER?and ER?in Ishikawa cell(4.21?0.34,4.69?1.96)was stronger than the membrane(P＜0.05). The ER?and ER?fluorescence intensity of HEC-1A cell membrane(1.58?0.13,1.49?0.04)were stronger than the control(P＜0.05).The fluorescence intensity of ER?and ER?of the HEC-1A cell (2.34?0.33,2.52?0.15)was stronger than the membrane also(P＜0.05).The membrane ER?fluorescence intensity of Ishikawa was lower than HEC-1A(P=0.028).But the total cell ER?fluorescence intensity of Ishikawa was higher than HEC-1A(P=0.002).Conclusions There are membrane ER on endometrial carcinoma cells Ishikawa and HEC-1A.The membrane ER must have some similarity to the nuclear receptor.There is no direct correlation between the quantity of the membrane ER and nuclear ER.

Objective: To study the effects of TNFα on wound healing. Methods: The skin lesion and incisions were made on mice and rhTNFα was applied in both skin lesion and incision. Tissue strips were evaluated for tensiometry and histologic features after healing. Results: It was found that rhTNFα markedly improved wound healing both in skin lesion and incision wound model, it also markedly enhanced the breaking strength of treated incision and increased wound cellularity in rh TNF α treated groups. Conclusion: The results suggest that TNFα play an important role in regulating inflammatory reactions of local injured tissues and it may improve the functions of fibroblasts, mononuclear phagocytes and endothelial cells. rhTNFα of suitable doses can promote wound healing. This shows that TNFα, as a wound healing promoter, has the potentials for clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the practicability of using flow cytometry analysis for diagnosis of non-hodgkin′s lymphoma ( NHL) among children with serous effusion.Methods Twelve children who were diagnosed with malignant lymphoma from February 2011 to November 2013 at Shanghai Children′s hos-pital were recruited in this study.Pleural effusion and ascites samples were collected from those children who showed serous effusion as initial symptoms and analyzed by using flow cytometry based immunophenotyping. The antibodies used for immunophenotyping included CD45, CD10, CD33, CD7, CD1a, MPO, cCD3, CD79a, CD22, CD19, CD20, CD5, CD3,κ,λ,αβ,γδ,CD56 and other common markers for T, B and NK cells.Anti-CD30 antibody was used when necessary.Results All of the twelve cases with serous effusion were diagnosed with aggressive NHL.Six out of the twelve children including five cases with ascites and one case with pleural effusion showed high expression of CD20 and were classified as NHL-B type by flow cytom-etry.Three children with pleural effusion and one child with both pleural effusion and ascites were typed as NHL-T as characterized by monoclonal expression of αβorγδ.The other two children with pleural effusion were diagnosed with anaplastic large cell lymphoma with positive expression of CD30 and morphological het-erogeneity.Conclusion Flow cytometry analysis based immunophenotyping could be used as an auxiliary method for rapid and accurate diagnosis of lymphoma in children with serous effusions.
