Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of rosiglitazone on the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) induced by high glucose in rat mesangial cells. Methods The mesangial cells were divided into six groups: control group ( C, 5.6 mmol/L glucose), mannitol group (M, 24.2 mmol/L mannitol+group C), high glucose group( H, 30 mmol/L glucose), R1 group(R1, group H+10 μmol/ L rosiglitazone), R2 group (R2, group H+20 μmol/L rosiglitazone), N-acetylcysteine (NAC) group (N, group H+5 mmol/L NAC, NAC was added 1 h before the stimulation of high glucose). The level of ROS was measured by confocal laser scanning microscopy. The mRNA and the protein expression of MCP-1 were semi-quantitatively determined with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and ELISA respectively. Results No significant differences of ROS and MCP-1 were found between control group and mannitol group. The intracellular ROS induced by high DOI:10.3760/cma.j.issn. 1001-7097.2009.01.011glucose increased by 4.1-fold compared to control group (P<0.01), which was prevented by rosiglitazone (20 μmol/L) and NAC respectively. The MCP-1 mRNA expression in group R2 and group N was significantly lower than that in group H (P<0.01). The MCP-1 protein level in group H [(940.9±20.3) ng/L] was higher than that in group C [(403.0±8.1) ng/L] (P<0.01), and the expression of MCP-1 protein in group R2 [(562.5±15.3) ng/L] and group N [(539.8±8.3) ng/L] was lower than that in group H (P<0.01). Conclusion Rosiglitazone may suppress high glucose-induced MCP-1 expression by reducing the level of ROS, which may be one of the mechanisms that rosiglitazone plays a direct role in the protection of kidney.

Local focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor intracellular tyrosine kinase that plays an important role in tumor initiation, development, metastasis and invasion, and is considered to be an important target for the development of antineoplastic drugs. It has both kinase-dependent and non-kinase-dependent scaffolding functions. However, traditional small molecular inhibitors can only inhibit its kinase-dependent activity, so it is difficult to target the kinase-independent scaffolding function. Therefore, there is an urgent need for novel strategies to enhance FAK targeting to lay the foundation for determining the druggability and discovery of FAK inhibitors. Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) is a new drug development strategy that can recruit E3 ligase to specifically ubiquitinylate target proteins for degradation through the proteasome system. The unique mechanism of action of the PROTAC system could be used to target and degrade the FAK protein, thus eliminating the scaffolding function of FAK. In this review, FAK protein, the signaling pathway, and small molecule inhibitors are briefly described, and the latest research progress in targeting the degradation of FAK using PROTAC technology is summarized.

Objective:
To learn the characteristics of adolescent pregnancy in Wenzhou from 2015 to 2019, so as to provide basis for protecting adolescent physical and mental health.
Methods:
Data of demographic characteristics, pregnancy and delivery outcomes of the women aged under 19 years ( adolescent pregnant ) and 20 to 34 years ( right-age pregnant ) who delivered in Wenzhou from 2015 to 2019 were collected from Wenzhou Maternal and Child Health Information Management System. The incidence of pregnancy complication, comorbidity and adverse delivery outcomes of adolescent pregnant women was compared with that of right-age pregnant women.
Results:
Among 536 753 parturients reported in Wenzhou from 2015 to 2019, there were 22 419 ( 4.18% ) of adolescent pregnancy and 430 163 ( 80.14% ) of right-age pregnancy. The average age of adolescent pregnant women was (18.11±0.82) years ( range, 10-19 years ). The majority of adolescent pregnant women were migrant population (19 437 cases, 86.70%), had an education level of junior high school and below ( 18 594 cases, 82.94% ), and had no occupation (19 192 cases, 85.61%). The incidence rates of anemia, gestational diabetes, postpartum hemorrhage, perineal laceration and premature delivery in adolescent pregnant women increased from 2015 to 2019 ( all P<0.05 ). The incidence rates of gestational diabetes, anemia, gestational hypertension, placental abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, perineal laceration, premature delivery, low birth weight, fetal death and stillbirth were 1.65%, 11.76%, 0.19%, 0.26%, 3.19%, 24.52%, 6.03%, 5.53%, 0.50% and 0.04% in adolescent pregnant women, which were significant different from 5.49%, 8.94%, 0.13%, 0.01%, 0.17%, 23.46%, 4.66%, 3.08%, 0.26% and 0.01% in the right-age pregnant women, respectively ( all P<0.05 ).
Conclusions
The adolescent pregnant population in Wenzhou are mainly migrant population with lower education level and no occupation. The incidence rates of pregnancy complication, comorbidity and adverse birth outcomes in adolescent pregnant population are higher than those in right-age pregnant population, and are increasing year by year.

Background Eicosapentaenoic acid(EPA)function as the critical lipid mediators involved in several biological events in human body and play important role in suppressing the genesis of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells.Many ocular diseases were proved to be associated with neovascularization.Objecfive The purpose of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of EPA on the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) indueed by VEGF. Methods HUVEC strain was cultured and passaged,and difierent concentrations of EPA were added to the medium with and without VEGF.The cultured cells were identified by antiofactor Ⅷ polyclonal antibody.The suppressing role of different concentrations of EPA on the proliferation of VEGF-induced or-uninduced HUVEC was assessed by MTT method.The influence of difierent concentrations of EPA on the cellular cycle of VEGF-induced HUVEC was assayed using flow eytometry.The expression of Flk-1,a receptor of VEGF,in the HUVEC Was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Cultured HUVEC showed the ftlsiform in shape and presented with the cobblestone-like arrangement with the positive response for Ⅷ factor-related antigen.Various concentrations of EPA showed obviously inhibitory effect on VEGF-induced or-unindueed HUVEC at a dose-dependent manner (F=23.072.P=0.000).The inhibitory ability of EPA on VEGF-induced HUVEC was stronger than VEGF-uninduced HUVEC(F=41.417,P=0.000).In 24,48 and 72 hours,the action of EPA on the proliferation of HUVEC was gradually enhanced with the prolong of time(F=1.495,P=0.236).Cell cycle analysis indicated that EPA arrested VEGF-induced HUVEC in G0/G1 phase.The ratio of HUVEC in G0/G1 phase in EPA group was(75.83±1.56)%,and that in control groups was(68.62±1.44)%,showing a significant difference between them(t=-5.88,P=0.00),and no apoptosis of HUVEC was found in both groups.Flk-1 was strongly expressed in the cellular nucleus and cytoplasm in control group.However,the positive expressing intensity of Flk-1 in the HUVEC weakened,and the positive cell number was evidently less in EPA group. Conclusion EPA can inhibit the proliferation of VEGF induced HUVEC through arresting the synthesis of DNA of HUVEC and downregulate the expression of Flk-1 in HUVEC.These results suggest that EPA might exert an antiangiogenic effect.
