1.The role of structural protein Gag and related gene (protein) in late stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle and the inhibitors.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2010;45(2):205-14
The late stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle are important to the overall replication cycle. During the late stages, HIV-1 replication undergoes the processes of assembly, release, and maturation, resulting in the production of a mature virus particle capable of infecting a new target cell. The structural protein Gag and its related gene (protein) play a central role in these pathways. The different regions of Gag worked in concert to drive production of a mature infectious particle through protein-protein, protein-RNA and protein-lipid interactions. The designed drug aimed directly at these stages can efficiently block the maturation and infectivity of HIV-1. In this article, the role of structural protein Gag and related gene (protein) in late stages of the HIV-1 replication cycle and related inhibitors is reviewed.

Objective To investigate the interaction between NMDA receptor subunit 2B (NR2B) and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) in the spinal cord of morphine-tolerant rats. Methods Sixteen male SD rats weighing 220-280 g were randomly divided into 2 groups with 8 rats in each group: control group (C) and morphine group (M). In group M morphine 10μg was administered intrathecally (IT) twice a day for 7 consecutive days. In group C equal volume of normal saline was given instead of morphine. Tail flick latency (TFL) (a segment of tail 4-5 cm long was immersed in 52-53℃ hot water) was used to measure the antinocicepitve effect of morphine before and 30 min after morphine administration every morning. MPE (percentage of maximal possible effect) was calculated (pain threshold after drug administration - baseline pain threshold)/(10- baseline pain threshold)× 100% . The animals were killed at the next day after last IT administration and the dorsal half of L4-5 spinal cord was isolated and homogenized for determination of NR2B and mGluR5 protein expression by Western blot and CO-IP. Results MPE was significantly increased at 1-5 d of drug administration and returned to baseline at 7 d in group M as compared with group C. The mGluR5 protein expression was significantly up-regulated in group M as compared with group C but there was no significant difference in NR2B protein expression between the 2 groups. Conclusion There is interaction between NK2B and mGluR5 in the spinal cord of morphine-tolerant rats.

Objective:To investigate the remodeling of alveolar process following anterior teeth retraction. Methods: Cephalograms of pretreatment (T1), posttreatment (T2) and follow-up (T3) of 55 cases with four first premolars extracted were collected as the study samples. All the lateral head films were traced on the acetate. Palate best fit superimposition was used to transfer pretreatment SN to posttreatment and follow-up cephalograms and to evaluate the displacement of upper incisor teeth roots and the remodeling of alveolar bone. The average of the two measurements was processed by SPSS statistical package. Results:The CRE of upper incisor moved backward 1.8 mm(P05) in SN frame of reference. The width of alveolus on the labial side at the same level increased 0.2 mm (P

Objective: To investigate alveolar bone remodeling on both labial and lingual aspects of lower anterior teeth during treatment and retention stage. Methods: Forty-three cases with lower first premolars extracted (34 girls and 9 boys) and full records at three time points (pretreatment, posttreatment, follow-up) were collected as study sample. Displacement of lower incisor and bone thickness around its labial and lingual aspect were measured. Results:For the level of center of resistance(LC), there was statistically significant decrease of alveolar bone on lingual aspect (0.78?0.77) mm and no change on labial aspect, as the center of resistance(CR) was retracted lingually by (-3.02?1.13) mm during treatment. Analogous changes were found at the level of 3 mm apical to the center of resistance (L3C). In retention stage, with stable positioned lower incisor, no statistically significant change of alveolar bone was found on labial aspect at LC while a little amount of decrease of labial bone (0.20?0.58) mm was found at L3C. On the contrary, subsequential bone apposition could be detected with increase of lingual bone at both levels by (0.31?0.76) mm and (0.38?0.94)mm respectively. Conclusion:Speed of labial bone resorption is faster than that of lingual bone apposition during orthodontic treatment. In retention stage, sequential bone apposition on lingual aspect is presented with lower incisor in stable position.

Objective To investigate the effects of WeChat follow-up of relatives on knowledge cognition, change of behavior, visual acuity and blood glucose for diabetic retinopathy (DR) patients.Methods Totally 107 typeⅡdiabetic patients from January 2014 to December 2015 in the Department of Endocrinology were enrolled in the study, with the inclusion criteria of 60 years of age and older and diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy. Subjects were divided into the WeChat group (53 cases) and the control group (54 cases) based on the order of enrollment. The control group was given routine care and health education, while the WeChat group was given additional follow-up of relatives through WeChat with distribution of health education messages for the management of DM and DR once each week for 12 months. Questionnaires were used to collect information on patient's knowledge of DR prevention & treatment and behavior change, FBG, PBG, and HbA1c, and visual acuity were also collected to assess the effectiveness of the intervention. Chi-square test was used to compare the patients' cognitive rate, behavioral change and stage of retinopathy. The t-test was used to compare fasting blood glucose, 2 hours postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin and visual acuity. Results Cognitive Knowledge change on DR were analyzed for the following questions:the time of the first fundus examination after diagnosis of diabetes and occurrence of systemic complications; what are key measures for prevention of early blindness in patients with DR;fundus checkup requirements while blood glucose control is ideal;types of major eye complications for diabetic patients; when laser treatment should be done for DR patients; how long apart should patients check the fundus;what is the normal range of blood glucose;and the types of server damages of DR;etc. The cognitive rates of WeChat group after follow-up were as follows 88.7%, 67.9%, 56.6%, 96.2%, 79.2%, 67.9%, 69.8%, 94.3%, 75.5%. WeChat group compared with the Control group after follow-up (χ2 values were 16.77, 30.76, 16.30, 7.75, 9.68, 36.03, 9.25, 10.57and 9.41, respectively, all P<0.01), the difference was statistically significant. The results of WeChat group before and after the follow-up were (χ2 values were 19.41, 38.22, 17.90, 8.23, 9.34, 38.22, 21.81, 12.08 and 25.52, respectively, all P<0.01), the difference was statistically significant. The cognitive rate for DR risk factors for the WeChat group was 24.5% before follow-up and 43.4%after follow-up;the after follow-up difference between WeChat group and the Control group was statistically significant (χ2=5.33, P<0.05). WeChat group before and after follow-up comparison (χ2=4.21, P<0.05) was also statistically significant. For values of fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin, results of WeChat group before follow-up were as follows (13.18± 4.46) mmol/L, (16.17 ± 3.97) mmol/L, (10.18 ± 2.76)%;results of WeChat group after follow-up were (8.45 ± 2.26) mmol/L, (11.34 ± 2.34) mmol/L,(7.83 ± 1.40)% respectively. The after follow-up comparison between WeChat group and the Control group showed statistically significant differences (t values were-7.06,-7.30, and-6.37, respectively, all P<0.01). Within the WeChat group, before and after follow-up comparison were all significantly different (t values were 6.83, 7.59 and 5.54, respectively, all P<0.01). The vision of WeChat group before follow-up was 0.68 ± 0.18, after follow-up was 0.71 ± 0.20. There were no significant differences in the two groups after follow-up, before and after follow-up WeChat group, the Control group before and after follow-up about visual acuity comparison (t values were 1.02,-1.10, and 0.57, respectively, all P>0.05). The two groups of patients were compared in balanced diet, regular eating time, meal volume, wearing loose clothing and exercise shoes and socks before each exercise, exercising for more than 30 min, weekly checkup of blood glucose, blood sugar test before and after the exercise and other measurements of behavior changes were significantly different (χ2 values were 11.54, 11.77, 13.68, 5.89, 10.23 and 8.72, respectively, all P<0.01 or 0.05). There were no significant differences in self-withdrawal of medication and Retinopathy stageⅠand stageⅡpatients and between these two patient groups (χ2 values were 1.20, 0.01 and 0.01, respectively, all P>0.05). Conclusions The practice of WeChat follow-up of relatives can improve cognition ability for DR patients aged 60 years and older, it can promote the healthy behavior and the BG monitoring effectively.
