Objective To investigate the relationship between with or without non?alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) and diabetic retinopathy(DR) in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)?Methods Clinical and laboratorial data of 517 cases T2DM hospitalized patients were collected,and the patients were divided into two groups according to if the NAFLD was complicated or not?Group A was T2DM with NAFLD and group B was T2DM without NAFLD?The general information and the laboratorial checking results were Compared, then various index were used as the independent variable, DR was used as the dependent variable for Logistic regression analysis?Results (1)In the 517 cases of T2DM patients,the incorporative rate of the NAFLD was 65?7%(349/517)?(2)Compared with group B,the levels of body mass index(BMI),insulin resistance index (HOMA?IR),glutamyltransferase(GGT),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST), triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),low?density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL?C) and uric acid(UA) for group A were significantly increased, while the high?density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL?C ) level was significantly decreased?All the differences were statistically significant( P<0?05)?( 3) Logistic analysis showed that the duration of the extension,hypertension,the increasing level of NAFLD,LDL?C were the risk factors of DR?Even though excluded the influence of duration,high blood pressure and LDL?C level,NAFLD was still the risk factor for T2DM complicated by the DR( OR=2?176,95% CI ( 1?354,3?199) )?Conclusion NAFLD and DR are closely related, so early diagnosis and intervention of NAFLD may prevent the occurrence and development of DR.

Objective To explore the expressions of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERs) related factors including inositol requiring enzyme-1α(IRE1αα),p-IRE1 α,c-jun N-terminal Kinase(JNK),and p-JNK in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,and to investigate the effect of intervention with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogue.Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into normal chow group(n =15) and high-fat diet group(n=25).After 12 weeks,5 rats of each group were used to assess the establishment of rat models with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.Then the high-fat diet group rats were divided into high-fat diet group (HF,n =10) and GLP-1 group(HG,n=10) and treated with normal saline and GLP-1 analogue for4 weeks respectively.Body weight and biochemical markers in rats were measured.The expressions of IRE1α,p-IRE1α,JNK,and p-JNK were measured by Western blot.Results Compared with the NC group,the levels of body weight,plasma triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C),alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in HF group were significantly higher (all P ＜ 0.01),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C) was decreased(P＜0.01),and p-IRE1 α/IRE1 α and p-JNK/JNK were increased(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).After GLP-1 treatment,body weight,plasma TG,TC,LDL-C,AST,ALT in HF group were significantly lowered(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),HDL-C was increased(P＜0.01),p-IRE1 α/IRE1 α and p-JNK/JNK were decreased (P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).Conclusion GLP-1 analogue may improve hepatic steatosis via regulating ERs related IRE1 α-JNK signaling pathway.

High-fat diet-induced insulin resistance rat model was assessed by euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp technique.Compared with the control group,the vaspin mRNA expression in adipose tissue was significantly decreased in insulin resistant rats induced by high-fat diet( P＜0.05 ),which was increased by metformin( P＜0.05 ).These data indicate that metformin may ameliorate insulin resistance in rats via upregulating vaspin mRNA expression.

Objective:To explore the interaction between gossypol and human serum albumin ( HSA) . Methods:The interaction of gossypol and HSA under physiological conditions was studied by fluorescence spectroscopy, and the molecular docking software was used to simulate the interaction. Results:The binding constant of gossypol and HSA at 293K and 303K was 2. 390 6 × 105 L·mol-1 and 3. 576 8 × 103 L·mol-1 , respectively. There was one binding site on HSA for gossypol. Hydrogen bond and Van Der Waals inter-actions were involved in the binding process. The binding of gossypol and HAS was closer to tyrosine residue in HSA. The molecular simulation analysis verified the above results. Conclusion: The gossypol-induced fluorescence quenching of HSA belongs to a static quenching procedure.

Objective To explore the difference of clinical features and laboratory indexs with different vasovagal responses in(head-up) tilt test(HUT) in children with vasovagal syncope(VVS).Methods Forty consecutive children diagnosed with VVS by HUT were analyzed.The vasovagal responses were divided into vasodepressor,cardioinhibitory and mixed patterns.The distribution and different clinical features and laboratory indexs of different response patterns in the VVS were studied.Results The most common vasovagal response was vasodepressor.There was no significant difference in their clinical features,including the motivation,presymptom,frequency and duration of syncope,baseline heart rate and blood pressure,and serum electrolytes among the children with different vasovagal respon-ses.Conclusion Vosodepressor response is the most common hemodynamic pattern in vasovagal syncope in children.

BACKGROUND:Tissue-engineered bone scaffold fabricated by 3D-bioprinting technique has good controlability in morphology and structure. However, construction of tissue-engineered bone/cel growth factor complex and time-dose effect of sustained-release factors are needed to be further researched.
OBJECTIVE:To fabricate a sustained-release composite of polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)/nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) scaffold carrying bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) using 3D-bioprinting technique, and test the biological properties of the PLGA/n-HA scaffold carrying BMP-2 and the sustained-release properties, thereby to discuss its feasibility as the tissue-engineered bone scaffold composite.
METHODS:Temperature-sensitive chitosan hydrogel was prepared using chitosan andβ-glycerophosphate to construct a sustained-release composite, chitosan nanoparticles carrying BMP-2 . 3D-bioprinting technique was utilized to fabricate the PLGA/n-HA scaffold carrying BMP-2. Biological features of the scaffold composite were tested, and time-dose effect of BMP-2 sustained-release was observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average pore size of the scaffold-cytokine composite was (431.31±18.40)μm, and the porosity was (73.64±1.82)%. The cumulative release rate of BMP-2 from the scaffold-cytokine composite that effectively controled the burst release during 48 hours and 30 days were suitable for the physiological needs. In conclusion, the porosity, pore size, release property, degradation rate, and mechanical strength of the scaffold-cytokine composite al meet the biological requirements of tissue-engineered bone construction.

Objective To assess the diagnostic value of 99Tcm-ECD SPECT for hyperacute cerebral ischemia using rats models.Methods A stable and permanent acute cerebral ischemia model using unilateral middle cerebral occlusion was tested in 24 healthy SD rats.The rats were randomly divided into 6 groups according to the time duration between imaging and induced-ischemia (1,2,3,4,5 and 6 h,respectively).The rats were sacrificed immediately after 99Tcm-ECD SPECT/CT imaging and then the brain tissue was dissected for triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) and HE staining.The count ratio of affected cortex to the contralateral cortex of ＜ 50％ was defined as ischemia on micro SPECT/CT.The volume of the ischemic area was calculated on both SPECT/CT and TTC images.Paired t test was used to determine the statistical difference between the volumes on SPECT/CT and TTC staining.Results The ischemia volume evaluated by TTC staining at 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 h after occlusion was (73.98 ± 27.76),(90.75 ±29.00),(135.00±40.83),(136.25±22.51),(158.50±32.72) and (168.00±32.75) mm3,respectively.The corresponding ischemia volume evaluated by micro SPECT/CT was (98.50 ± 27.77),(110.40±26.80),(157.00±36.82),(165.50±26.54),(175.75±31.16) and (177.25 ±34.33) mm3,respectively,which was concordant with that by TTC staining at each time point (t:-1.681 to-0.390,all P ＞0.05).The ischemic area on micro SPECT/CT imaging was consistent with the pink area by TTC staining.The volume evaluated by micro SPECT/CT tended to be constant 3 h after the occlusion.The ischemia volume showed no significant difference among 3,4,5 and 6 h (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Micro SPECT/CT may have an haemodynamic value for evaluating in vivo cerebral ischemia applied in a rat model.It might have clinical value for the evaluation and decision-making of ultra acute cerebral infarctions.
