In order to evaluate the effectiveness of everolimus vs. rapamycin in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy, 8-week old diabetic (db/db) mice received everolimus (2 mg/kg every day) or rapamycin (2 mg/kg every day) for 4 weeks or 12 weeks respectively. Blood and 24-h urine samples were collected for biochemical tests. One kidney from each mouse was homogenized for protein analysis and the other was removed for histological analysis. The expression levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)and phospho-p70s6k were detected by using ELISA and Western blot, respectively in the renal tissue as well as in mesengial cell culture samples. Everolimus was significantly more effective than rapamycin in improving indexes of renal function and glomerular hypertrophy, and in decreasing accumulation and expansion of the extracellular matrix. However, everolimus inhibited TGF-β1 secretion and p70s6k phosphorylation induced by high glucose in vitro less efficiently than rapamycin at the same dose. Everolimus was more effective than rapamycin in preventing diabetic nephropathy in vivo, which may be contributed to the fact that everolimus has better bioavailability and a higher oral absorption rate.

The formation of physique was influenced by many factors and was closely related to the disease, especially by the social and cultural factors. According to the characteristics of physique, physique conditioning was conducive to rehabilitation of the disease. It was also the internal evidence for individualized treatment of rehabilitation. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) rehabilitation advocated functional rehabilitation as the main treatment purpose. Attentions were paid to promoteqi circulation. The psychological characteristics of the rehabilitation subject were especially emphasized on, in order to improve the therapeutic effect of rehabilitation. There were many classifications of physical evaluations, which were widely used in a variety of clinical diseases rehabilitation. The pathological physique correction and adjustment cannot be ignored in rehabilitation. Therefore, the application of physical evaluation in the guidance of rehabilitation therapy can enrich the content of TCM rehabilitation evaluation. It further improved TCM physical evaluation system to meet the needs for clinical practice and TCM modernization.

Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanisms of curcumin on insulin resistance in streptozocin-induced diabetic rats.Methods:Diabetic rats were induced by intraperitoneal injection of STZ, then all the rats were randomly divided into diabetes (DM), diabetes+ curcumin (DM+ Cur), and diabetes + buffer control (DM+ NC) groups. Normal SD rats were used as control group (NC). The DM+ Cur group was treated with curcumin, while the DM+ NC group was treated with equal-volume buffer. The test lasted 12 weeks. The blood glucose was detected, and hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp test was performed to estimate peripheral insulin resistance. At the end of the experiments, rats were killed and the total protein and cell membrane protein were extracted from skeletal muscle. The levels of phosphorylated PI3K, phosphorylated AKT, total PI3K, and total AKT were measured by Western blot. The levels of total GLUT4 and GLUT4 of cell membrane were also detected by Western blot, GLUT4 levels in skeletal muscle cell membranes were detected by immunofluorescence.Results:Blood glucose levels of DM+ Cur group were lower than those of DM group [(18.67±1.99 vs 24.38±2.88) mmol/L, P<0.05], and insulin resistance was also improved[the average GIR(14.69±0.29 vs 10.25±0.30) mg·kg -1·min -1, P<0.01]. The phosphorylation levels of PI3K and AKT were increased, and GLUT4 translocation to the cell membrane was increased. Conclusion:By activating the PI3K/AKT pathway, curcumin promotes GLUT4 translocation, increases skeletal muscle glucose uptake, and finally improves insulin resistance.

Objective To compare with the effect of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) between the left and the right prefrontal on refractory negative symptoms and serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Methods 80 hospitalized schizophrenics with refractory negative symptoms were divided into study group (n=40) and control group (n=40) randomly. Both groups were received 4-week treatment of 10 Hz rTMS. The stimulus lo?cation of the study group was the left prefrontal, and the control group was the right prefrontal. The type and dose of anti?psychotics remained unchanged during the treatment. The evaluation of positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) and the measurement of BDNF concentration before treatment and after 4 weeks treatment was analyzed. Results Com?pared with before treatment, the total score of PANSS after treatment significantly decreased (P<0.05) both in the study group [(71.2±13.8) vs. (63.3±11.4)] and the control group [(70.3±13.4) vs. (63.7±12.2)]. The score of negative symptoms in the study group decreased [(22.8±6.6) vs. (18.4±5.9), P<0.01]. The BDNF concentration increased in the study group ](6.78±2.16) vs. (8.74±2.76)] and the control group [(6.83±2.32) vs. (8.66±2.70)]. Conclusion 10Hz rTMS on the left pre?frontal combined with drugs are helpful to improve the refractory negative symptom of the patients with schizophrenia. Stimulation on both left and right prefrontal lobe could increase serum BDNF concentration.
