Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenetic modification enzyme that plays a crucial role in the development and progression of diabetes and its complications. Studies have reported that increased HDAC3 activity is associated with pancreatic β-cell dysfunction in type 1 diabetes, while in type 2 diabetes, HDAC3 affects insulin resistance and signaling by regulating the metabolism of the liver, adipose tissue, and muscle. Additionally, HDAC3 plays a key role in diabetic complications such as cardiomyopathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy. Selective inhibition of HDAC3 has the potential to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce chronic inflammation, and enhance pancreatic cell function, offering a promising new therapeutic strategy for diabetes and its complications.

Objective Acute bilirubin encephalopathy in neonates is the most serious complication of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, is one of the main causes of neonatal death and disability. Clinical early diagnosis, early treatment can improve the prognosis in children. Methods Brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEF) was detected on two patients (40 patients with ABE, 40 cases of normal controls, all full-term) in the state of sleep in children and analysis the difference between the two groups ,all testing was completed by experienced Department of ENT full-time technician in charge,SPSS15.0 statistical analysis software was took for data analysis (using rank sum test method). Results There was significant difference between the two groups of neonatal latency of wave I, latency of waveⅤ, interpeak time , acute bilirubinⅠ-Ⅴencephalopathy group was significantly longer than that of the control group. Conclusions The BAEF detection is the sensitive index of brainstem damage , can objectively and sensitively reflect the function of the central nervous system , can reflect the functional status of cochlear and brainstem structures , often brainstem was slightly damaged but no clinical symptoms and signs , BAEP has changed significantly , so the conventional BAEP examination performed on patients with hyperbilirubinemia help to find bilirubin brain damage as early as possible,and prevent the occurrence of bilirubin encephalopathy.

A 66-year-old man was admitted for a 7-day history of painful blisters and erosions in the upper lip.Real-time PCR with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type-specific primers showed that the blister fluid and crusts were positive for HSV-1,but negative for HSV-2.Observation of the blister wall with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed 3 types of nucleocapsid in the karyoplast of epithelia cells,including the electron-translucent core,granular core and electron-dense core.Numerous matured viral particles with envelope were found in the cytoplasm,which were identified as HSV.The diagnosis was made as herpes simplex in the upper lip based on the above findings.PCR based molecular typing combined with observation of HSV particles via TEM may be an effective approach to the definite diagnosis of primary herpes simplex.

Objective Determine the common syndrome elements of viral hepatitis.Methods Refering to the syndrome elements hypothesis proposed by Zhang Zhibin,syndrome elements from the collection of 19,341 cases of Viral Hepatitis were extracted which were diagnosed by National Science and Technology Major Project of AIDS and Viral Hepatitis and Other Major Infectious Diseases Prevention and Control.And the results were compared with industry standards.Results There were 27 involved syndrome elements of viral hepatitis.Common syndrome elements were Qi stagnation,internal dampness,internal fire,blood stasis,yin deficiency,Qi deficiency,toxin,pathogenic water,and yang deficiency; The main excessive syndromes were Qi stagnation,internal dampness,internal fire,and blood stasis.The main deficiency syndromes were yin deficiency and Qi deficiency.Conclusion Excessive syndromes were the main syndromes of viral hepatitis.Dampness,heat,blood stasis,and toxin played key roles in the development of viral hepatitis.In addition to this,Qi stagnation,pathogenic water and phlegm were also important syndrome elements.

Objective To investigate possible mechanism of Ginsenoside Rg1 on dopaminergic nigral neurons apoptosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and its protective effect.Methods C57BL/6N mice were administrated with 1-Methy-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyri-dine (MPTP) to produce chronic PD model,PD mice were observed in behavioral changes.The expression levels of caspase-3 and TH in ventral midbrain were studied with immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.Apoptotic cell numbers were determined by TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL).Results In group treated with Ginsenoside Rg1,the number of TH-positive neurons in SN was only decreased by 31% as compared with the control group (55%)(P<0.01),the expression of caspase-3 was apparently decreased and major expressed in the cytosol of nigral neurons and TUNEL positive cells in SN decreased (P<0.01).Conclusion The neuroprotective effect of Ginsenoside Rg1 on dopaminergic nigral neurons apoptosis of the mice model of Parkinson's disease induced by MPTP is significant,Decreased expression of Caspase-3 may be the major mechanism of Ginsenoside Rg1 for antiapoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of tourniquet compression on axonal transport in sciatic nerve of rats.Methods Twenty-four 12-week old male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 4groups according to the duration of tourniquet compression(n=6 each):1,2,4 and 12 h.The tourniquet was applied to the middle 1/3 of thigh.In each animal whether the left or right thigh was compressed was determined by a flip of coin.The tourniquet was released for 10 min after every hour of compression.A 3-cm segment of sciatic nerve was removed at the end of tourniquet compression(1.5 cm proximal and 1.5 cm distal to the site of compression).Immuno-histochemistry was used to measure the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in the sciatic nerve.The ratio of average optic density of the compressed sciatic nerve to that of control was used to estimate the degree of IGF-1 accumulation.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression and accumulation of IGF-1 was analyzed.Results There was significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve proximal to the compressed site.The accumulation increased with the duration of compression.There was no significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve distal to the compressed site.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression(X)and accumulation of IGF-1(Y)was Y=0.422X+0.887.Conclusion Tourniquet compression of sciatic nerve can inhibit axonal transport.The accumulation increases with the duration of compression.
