As one of the most sensitive cells of endoplasmic reticulum stress,pancreatic βcells have an abundance of endoplasmic reticulum .It is the adaptive response of pancreatic β cells under Endoplasmic reticulum stress conditions.Internal and external factors in the environment such as oxidative damage,lipid toxicity and the effect of cytokines in the endoplasmic reticulum could breake the steady-state,resulting in barriers to folding or misfolding of protein,thereby to trigger endoplasmic reticulum stress.Serious and lasting stress will lead to β cell apoptosis,involved in a variety of metabohc diseases as well as a variety of diseases.This article gives a review on the injury effects of multi-factor induced endoplasmic reticulum stress on the pancreatic β-cell

Hypoglycemia is very common in daily blood glucose management of diabetic patients, and growing number of studies have proved that hypoglycemia plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cognitive dysfunction. There may be a bidirectional relationship between severe hypoglycemia and cognitive dysfunction, resulting in a vicious circle of mutual aggravation between hypoglycemia and cognitive dysfunction, but the specific mechanism is not clear. This article reviews the relationship between hypoglycemia and cognitive dysfunction, the mechanism of hypoglycemia induced cognitive dysfunction, and clinical management measures. The aim is to improve the understanding of the relationship between hypoglycemia and cognitive dysfunction, and to provide scientific basis for further exploring the mechanism of diabetes mellitus with cognitive dysfunction.

Objective To construct shRNA against optineurin ( OPTN ) clone and transfect the construction into HEK293FT cells for inhibiting the expression of OPTN, which is laid the foundation for further research of molecu-lar mechanism OPTN protein. Methods The insert of this clone was a double-strained DNA sequence against OPTN which would be transcripted into shRNA and it was synthesized according to the sequence in Origene. Ex-pression vector pRFP-C-RS was employed to fuse the insert to get the construction and finally confirmed by sequen-cing. HEK293FT cells were transfected with the very clone pRFP-C-RS-shOPTN and RFP signals could be detected using fluorescence microscope. Western blot was further employed to check the protein level of OPTN. HEK293FT cells were transfected with the very clone pRFP-C-RS-shOPTN was then obtained to investigate the functional study of OPTN which was measured by Salmonella infection experiment. Results shRNA eukaryotic expression vector targeting OPTN gene was successfully constructed. HEK293FT cells were transfected with pRFP-C-RS-shOPTN and 72 hours later we observed strong RFP signals showing that shOPTN expressed. Western blot was further employed to check the protein level of OPTN which showed that OPTN expression was indeed interfered. Salmonella infection assays was then performed and showed that OPTN could inhibit the proliferation of Salmonella that has invaded HEK293FT cells. Conclusion HEK293FT cell line which expresses shRNA against OPTN show a sharp inhibition of OPTN protein expression by 80%. So this cell line can be further used to investigate how OPTN regulates auto-phagy as an autophagy receptor. Meanwhile we find that OPTN can be as a autophagy regulator and strongly sup-press the proliferation of invasive Salmonella in vivo.

Objective To explore the intrinsic link between neuro-endocrine-immune (NEI) network and the viscera-state.Methods Using three databases namely TCM database, Chinese pharmacy database and combination of TCM and WM database in China Academic Journals Database, the authors searched and collected NEI-related indicators published on journals for the viscera-state researches. Then a related database was established for data mining. Through analysis of association rules, analysis of the relationship among diseases, syndromes, therapeutic principles, combination of disease and syndrome, and NEI network related indicators were performed for association rules and directional network diagrams.Results Through the association analysis, the authors drew 44 directional network diagrams of high-frequency disease positions, syndromes, therapeutic principles and NEI network related indicators, and obtained 19 association rules. Kidney and liver essence research focused on HPG axis, HPA axis, and HPT axis. Spleen essence research focused on brain-gut peptide related indicators. Heart essence research focused on vascular endothelium function indicators. Pulmonary essence research focused on humeral immunity, ET and TNF-α.Conclusion It was feasible to explore the intrinsic link between NEI network and the viscera-state by using data mining. Differences among study on NEI network of five-organs systems were found, which is of great significance for researches on the essence of the viscera-state.

Aim To study the effect of sibutramine hydrochloride on hypothalamus orexin system gene in high-fat dietary obesity rats.Methods SD rats were fed with high-fat diet to induce obesity model.Then,the rats were divided into two groups,the treatment group with sibutramine(8 mg?kg-1,ig)and control group with NaCl(ig)for 4 weeks.All rats' weight,blood fat and glucose were measured,prepro-orexin and its receptors mRNA expression in the hypothalamus were assessed by semi-quantity RT-PCR.Results Sibutramine not only decreased the obesity rats' weight and the level of serum lipid and glucose,but also increased the level of prepro-orexin mRNA expression in obesity rats.There was no difference in mRNA expression of both orexin receptors in each group.Conclusions Sibutramine hydrochlorid has an anti-obesity effect in high-fat obesity rats,which may be related to the increase of prepro-orexin gene mRNA expression level.
