The roles of NF-kappaB (NF-kappaB) expression, Bax activity and cytochrome C (Cyt C) release, apoptosis of islet cells induced by high concentration glucose were explored in vitro. Pancreatic islet cells, which were isolated from Kunming mice, were cultured with different concentrations of glucose in DMEM, and divided into the following groups: G1, G2, G3, G4, G5, and G6 groups, corresponding to the glucose concentrations of 5.6, 7.8, 11.1, 16.7, 22.5, and 27.6 mmol/L, respectively. After culture for 120 h, insulin secretion was evaluated by radioimmunoassay, and the NF-kappaB expression was detected by immunocytochemistry. Bax activity and Cyt C release were measured by immunofluorescence, and apoptosis was examined by Hoechst33342 assay. The results showed that in G1, G2 and G3 groups, insulin secretion was enhanced with the increase of glucose concentration, and the NF-kappaB expression was also increased (P<0.05), but Bax activity, Cyt C release and apoptosis rate showed no significant difference among them. However, in G4, G5, and G6 groups, apoptosis rate of islet cells, NF-kappaB expression, Bax activity, and Cyt C release were all significantly increased, and insulin secretion was impaired as compared with G1, G2, and G3 groups (P<0.05). It was concluded that the exposure of islet cells to high glucose could induce islet cells apoptosis as well as impaired insulin secretion. The NF-kappaB signaling pathway and mitochondria pathway in islet cells might play some roles in the progressive loss of islet cells in diabetes. The inhibition of the NF-kappaB expression could be an effective strategy for protecting pancreatic islet cells.

Objective To study the expressions of nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt)in main energy metabolism organs (liver, pancreas, skeletal muscle, and kidney ) of the rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to explore the correlation between the expression and distribution of Nampt and the occurrence of diabetes.Methods The SD rat diabetes model was established by injecting with streptozotcin (STZ).The SD rats were randomly divided into diabetes group and control group. Immunohistochemical Envision staining assay was used to detect the distribution and protein expressions of Nampt in liver,pancreas,muscle,and kidney tissues of the rats,at the same time the blood glucose and serum insulin levels were also be detected. Results The blood glucose level of the rats in diabetes group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.01),and the fasting insulin level was lower than that in control group (P<0.01).The Nampt expression in the liver tissue of the rats in diabets group was significantly increased,which distributed near the hepatic sinus in diabetes rats,and the Nampt expression was also increased in skeletal muscle in which the whole cell was thick dying;the Nampt expression mainly distributed in the renal tubular epithelial cells. Compared with control group, the positive expression rates of Nampt in liver,skeletal muscle,and kidney tissues of the rats in diabets group were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01).There was nearly no Nampt expression in pancreas tissue of the rats in diabetes group and the Nampt expression level was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The Nampt expressions are much different in main energy metabolic organs of the rats with diabetes.It is suggested that Nampt may be used as a specific indicative marker in the process of diabetes.

Objective To study the effects of benzyl propionate nandrolone (BPN ) on the nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt), insulin receptor substeate-2 (IRS-2 )and pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1)expressions, cell cycle changes as well as insulin secretion in pancreatic islet cell NIT-1 lines, and to explore the influence of BPN in the Nampte xpression in NIT-1 cells and insulin signaling molecules in high glucose oxidation stress.Methods The NIT-1 cells were cultured with different concentrations (5.6,11.1,16.7,and 27.6 mmol·L-1)of glucose,then they were treated with 10 mg·L-1 BPN for 48 h with no BPN treatment as corresponding control groups.The expression levels of Nampt,IRS-2,and PDX-1 were tested by Western blotting assay.The changes of cell cycle were determined by FCM and the cell insulin secretion levels were measured with radioimmunoassay.Results Compared with corresponding control groups,the expression levels of Nampt,IRS-2, and PDX-1 proteins in the NIT-1 cells in various BPM groups were increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The G0/G1 phase arrest was relieved (P<0.01)when the cells was cultured in low glucose (5.6 mmol·L-1 )condition,and the G2/M block was remitted significantly in high glucose (27.6 mmol·L-1 )condition (P<0.01),furthermore, the cell insulin secretion was promoted compared with control groups except 1 1.1 mmol· L-1 glucose group (P<0.01).Conclusion BPN can promote the expression levels of Nampt,ISR-2 and PDX-1 proteins in NIT-1 cells. There is close relationship between the Nampt expression in NIT-1 cells and insulin signaling pathway and BPN prevents the cells from insulin resistance.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect of niclosamide ethanolamine salt clustable powder (DP). Methods A comparative molluscicidal experiment was carried out by spraying method with niclosamide ethanolamine salt 4% DP. The experiments were respectively done in the labatory and field. The spraying with niclosamide ethanolamine salt 50% wettable power (WP) was used as the control. Results The molluscicidal effects of niclosamide ethanolamine salt 4% DP and 50% WP were similar in the laboratory. In the field, the effect of niclosamide ethanolamine salt 4% DP was lower than that of 50% WP in 3 d. However, the molluscicidal effects of the two formulations had not significant difference after 7 d. Conclusion The molluscicidal effects of niclosamide ethanolamine salt 4% DP and 50% WP were almost the same. DP is suitable for some areas where water are lack, or the water level are difficult to control.

Objective To understand the effect of Schistosoma japonicum infection on Oncomelania hupensis. Methods Uninfected Oncomelania snails were collected from the marshland of the Yangtze River in Anhui Province and exposed to and infected with miracidia of S.japonicum in the laboratory. After the exposure, those snails and unexposed snails as the control were raised in the natural environment of the same field and all the snails were observed and recorded every 10 days. The survival rate and death rate were calculated, and expected survival time was also calculated with the animal life table method. Results The peak of death of the infected snails was between 60 and 70 days after the exposure, and the expected survival time was 63.46 days and the longest survival time was 135 days. The peak of death of the unexposed snails was between 80 and 90 days, and the expected survival time was 83.54 days and the longest survival time was 155 days. The expected survival time of the infected snails was 24.04% shorter compared with that of the uninfected. Conclusion The death rate of snails infected with S.japonicum increases and the survival time decreases in the natural environment.
