Active physical exercise can effectively alleviate the pathological process of chronic cerebral ischemia(CCH)and improve learning and memory ability.This paper reviews the possible biological mechanisms of aerobic exercise to delay the pathological process of chronic cerebral ischemia and improve learning and memory.Previous studies have found that aerobic exercise can improve the neuroprotective effect,enhance the plasticity of hippocampal synapses,improve the activity of the upper and lower pathways of hippocampal tissue,and improve learning and memory ability.However,the intervention effect of aerobic exercise on chronic cerebral ischemia should be fully considered at the intervention time,and the intervention effect is also different.

[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the osteogenic differentiation characteristics of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) derived from bone marrow in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and its clinical significance. Methods: Bone marrow samples from 30 cases of newly diagnosed untreated MDS patient atAffiliated Hospital of Heibei University were collected for this study. MSCs from MDS patients and normal subjects were isolated and cultured, and morphological characteristics of MSCs were observed in vitro; under proper conditions, MSCs were induced to differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes; The formation of calcium nodules at 14th day after osteogenic differentiation was observed by alizarin red staining; mRNA expressions of osteogenic differentiation transcription factors Ostefix and RUNX2 in undifferentiated MSCs, as well as the mRNAexpression of Jagged-1, which involved in the transformation from hematopoietic cells into leukemic cells, were detected by quantitative PCR. Results: The MSCs derived from patients with MDS were characterized with increased cell volume and decreased differentiation potential. Compared with the control group, the expression levels of osteogenic differentiation transcription factors Osterix and RUNX2 were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Alizarin red staining showed that the content of calcium nodules in MDS group was significantly less than that in the normal control group, while the expression level of Jagged-1 was significantly higher (P < 0.05). Conclusion: MSCs derived from bone marrow of MDS patients showed significant increased cell volume, decreased differentiation potential and elevated Jagged-1 expression; all of these might play important roles in the .hematopoietic failure and progression to acute myeloid leukemia in MDS patients.

Objective: This study was devoted to identifying natural thrombin inhibitors from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and evaluating its biological activity in vitro and binding characteristics. Methods: A combination strategy containing molecular docking, thrombin inhibition assay, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and molecular dynamics simulation were applied to verify the study result. Results: Gallic acid was confirmed as a direct thrombin inhibitor with IC

Objective: To analyze the blood pressure changes of adults aged 18-59 years in rural area of Shanxi province based on a cohort study, and provide reference for the study of the blood pressure level of rural residents and hypertension prevention and control in rural areas in China. Methods: Data were obtained from Shanxi Nutrition and Chronic Disease Family Cohort from 2002 to 2015. Subjects aged <18 years or ≥60 years and individuals with hypertension at baseline survey in 2002, and those who had taken antihypertensive drugs for nearly two weeks during the follow-up survey in 2015 were excluded from the study. A total of 1 629 subjects aged 18-59 years were included in the analyses of the blood pressure level and its change from the baseline survey in 2002 to follow-up survey in 2015. Results: The systolic blood pressure (SBP) of the subjects increased from (122.7±10.4) mmHg in 2002 to (132.8±17.6) mmHg in 2015 and the diastolic pressure (DBP) increased from (72.7±6.9) mmHg in 2002 to (78.8±10.3) mmHg in 2015. The SBP in men and women increased with growth rates of 6.7% and 9.5%. While DBP in men and women increased with growth rates of 9.3% and 7.8%. The SBP levels of those aged 18-, 30-, 40- and 50-59 years increased with growth rates of 5.0%, 6.7%, 9.4% and 11.8%. While the DBP of these age groups increased with growth rates of 12.2%, 8.2%, 8.2% and 6.5%. Conclusions The blood pressure of adults aged 18-59 years old in rural area of Shanxi showed a substantially increasing trend. The mean increase level of SBP in women was higher than that in men, and increased with age. While the mean increase level of DBP in men is higher than that in women, and decreased with age.
