[Abstract ] Objective C reactive protein (CRP), an in-flammatory maker, increased significantly among diabetes mellitus and other metabolic diseases.Meanwhile, adiponectin plays a vital role in anti-atherogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic poten-tials.Further, it decreased in diabetes mellitus.To investigate the effects of C-reactive protein in the expression of high-molecular-weight adiponectin ( HMWA) and adiponectin multimerization. Methods The fully differentiated 3T3-L1 cells were respectively treated with 50μg/mL CRP for 0 h、6 h、12 h and 24 h , and different doses of CRP with 0μg/mL、5μg/mL、25μg/mL、50μg/mL for 24 h.The expres-sion of HMWA was further detected by Western blot.Additionally,
the mRNA expressions of adiponectin assembly related genes ( Ero1-L、DsbA-L、ERp44 ) were detected by Real time PCR after 50μg/mL CRP treatment for 24 h. Results After 24 h treatment, 25μg/mL CRP and 50μg/mL CRP resulted in a substantial reduction ( [70 ±7]%vs [44 ±7]%, P<0.05) while 5μg/mL CRP revealed no change.With the dose of 50μg/mL CRP treated, the ex-pression of HWMA were both inhibited after the 12 h and 24 h CRP treatment ([71 ±6]%vs [48 ±11]%, P<0.05), but for the 6 h CRP treatment group, HWMA remained unchanged.Additionally, CRP inhibited Ero1-L(86 ±10)%and DsbA-L(72 ±6)%gene expression and upregulated the expression of ERp44(141 ±23)%. Conclusion CRP decreases HMWA expression in a dose and time-dependent manner and inhibits the multimerization of adiponectin, thus weaken the benefits of adiponectin in diabetes.

Objective To investigate the clinic technique and effect of treating lumbar disc herniation (LDH) with decompressor and ozone injection combined lumbar traction after surgery.Methods 110 contained LDH patients were randomly divided into two group:decompressor and ozone group,decompressor and ozone combined lumbar traction after surgery group.Under the guidance of CT,fifty-five patients in group A were treated by disc decompression with Decompressor through poster olateral approach,then ozone was injected into the lumbar disc or out side the lumbar disc,and the other fifty-five patients in group B were treated by lumbar traction after surgery that disc decompression and ozone injection same as the group A in once a day and one week of treatment.The theraputic effect was evaluated by comparing VAS,effective rate of therapy before and after treatment.Results The VAS score of two groups at 1,3,7 days between pre-and post-treatment had singificantly different(t =2.159,2.163,2.169,2.167,2.173,2.192,all P ＜0.05).110 case were followed up after 6 and 12 months,The good-excellent rate of therapy in B group 12 months were better than those of A group (x2 =74.23,75.11,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Decompressor combined ozone injection and lumbar traction after surgery is an effective menthod for treatment of the central type mbar disc herniation.

Objective To detect serum oxytocin and highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in obese and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) subjects and investigate the relationships between serum oxytocin levels and hs-CRP, glycolipid metabolism, insulin resistance and pancreas β cell function. Methods A total of 176 subjects were enrolled in the study, including 88 patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes ( T2DM) and 88 subjects with normal glucose tolerance(NGT). NGT and T2DM groups were further divided each into normal weight (NW) and obese(OB) subgroups. Obesity was defined as body mass index(BMI)≥25 kg/ m2 according to the WHO-Western Pacific Region diagnostic criteria (2000). 75g oral glucose tolerance test ( OGTT) was performed in all subjects. Fasting plasma glucose ( FPG), 2 h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG), fasting insulin ( FINS), 2h postprandial serum insulin(2hINS), HbA1C and lipids were also determined. Insulin resistance and pancreas β-cell function were determined by homeostasis model assessment ( HOMA-IR, HOMA-β). Highly sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) level was determined by chemiluminescence immunoassay and fasting serum oxytocin level was determined by ELISA. Results Serum oxytocin level was lower in T2DM group than that in NGT group(P<0. 01), while serum hs-CRP level was higher in T2DM group than that in NGT group(P<0. 01). The level of serum oxytocin in subjects with obesity was also lower than that in subjects with NW in both NGT and T2DM groups [7. 16(6. 45-8. 82) vs 7. 98(7. 03-9. 17) ng/ L and 9. 23(8. 16-10. 36) vs 9. 86(8. 77-12. 06) ng/ L, P<0. 05]. The level of serum hs-CRP in subjects with obesity was higher than that in subjects with NW in both NGT and T2DM groups [0. 99(0. 25-1. 97) vs 0. 54(0. 19-0. 91) mg/ L and 3. 47(1. 63-6. 20) vs 1. 65(0. 81-3. 81) mg/ L, P<0. 05]. Serum oxytocin level was negatively correlated with hs-CRP, BMI, WC, WHR, HbA1C , FPG, 2hPG, FINS, 2hINS, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-C and HOMA-IR, while was positively correlated with HOMA-β(P<0. 05). Subjects within the upper serum hs-CRP tertile had lower level of oxytocin when compared to subjects in the middle or lower serum hs-CRP tertiles(P<0. 05 ). Conclusion Serum oxytocin level was decreased in subjects with type 2 diabetes as well as with obesity. Serum oxytocin level was closely correlated with inflammation, glycolipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and pancreas β cell function. It may play an important role in the pathogenesis of obesity and T2DM.

Objective There are few researches for the serum betatrophin level and diabetic nephropathy (DN) recently.The aim of this study was to investigate the change of serum betatrophin level and the correlation of serum betatrophin and urinary albumin-to-creatintine ratio (UACR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A total of 150 Chinese subjects from Mar 2013 to Jul 2016 were enrolled in the study, including 90 patients with type 2 diabetes and 60 healthy controls.According to the level of UACR, the diabetic patients were divided into two groups:normal UACR group (UACR<30 mg/g, n=60) and abnormal UACR group(UACR>30 mg/g, n=30).Serum betatrophin was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).UACR was measured by turbidimetric inhibition immune assay.Blood glucose blood lipid were measured simultaneously.Results The serum betatrophin level was significantly higher in abnormal UACR group than that in normal UACR group[677.37±59.02 vs 486.13±41.22 pg/mL, P<0.05];Serum betatrophin level in T2DM patients was positively correlated with age (r=0.246), waist hip ratio (WHR) (r=0.240), fasting blood glucose (FPG) (r=0.234), 2 hour plasma glucose (2hPG) (r=0.363), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (r=0.346), fasting insulin (FINS) (r=0.249), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) (r=0.309), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (r=0.223), creatinine (CREA) (r=0.277) and UACR (r=0.244) (P<0.05),and negatively correlated with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (r=0.308) (P<0.01).Serum betatrophin level in normal UACR group was positively correlated with age, HbA1c and UACR (P<0.05);Serum betatrophin level in abnormal UACR group was positively correlated with WHR (r=0.504), 2hPG (r=0.600), HbA1c (r=0.449), HOMA-IR (r=0.395) (P<0.05).The WHR, HbA1c, HOMA-IR and GFR were the influential factors of the serum betatrophin level.Conclusion The level of serum betatrophin was significantly increased in T2DM patients with albuminuria, which suggests that the betatrophin might play an important role in the pathogenesis of DN.
