Objective To explore the effect of combined use of schizophrenia combined with psychological intervention on benzene exposure to workers. Methods A total of 106 workers were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The 106 workers were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The workers were randomly divided into observation group and control group. 53 patients were given the observation group combined with the psychological intervention, given the control group placebo, 3 months after the intervention to compare the two groups of workers blood parameters, oxidation-antioxidant indicators and genetic damage indicators. Results The WBC and PLT were significantly increased after treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while MDA and MN were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion Leucosonurn has some protective effects on blood system damage, oxidative damage and cytogenetic damage caused by exposure to benzene, and the combination of psychological intervention is beneficial to the early prevention of benzene poisoning.

Insect antifreeze protein (AFP) has high antifreeze activity. Antifreeze proteins can be used in cryopreservation of biological tissues and cells. We expressed an antifreeze protein from the desert beetle Microdera punctipennis in yeast and determined the function of the protein at low temperatures. Yeast expression vector, pPIC9K-Mpafp698, was constructed and transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115. The expression of MpAFP698 was induced by methanol, and identified by tricine SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Mpafp698 gene was inserted into the genome of the host yeast strain GS115, and correctly expressed. Hardly any yeast's own protein was secreted into the media. Cryoprotective experiments showed that MpAFP698 can significantly protect mouse liver as well as other mouse organs from cold damage compared with those in the control of Bovine serum albumin (BSA) addition. Besides, the hemolysis of blood cells protected by MpAFP698 at 4 degrees C was reduced and the survival rate of SF9 cells protected by MpAFP698 after freezing and thawing was increased compared to those of the control with BSA addition. Our results showed that MpAFP698 can be expressed in yeast, which allows a convenient purification of the MpAFP protein that has the cryoprotective effect.

Objective To detect the impairment of response inhibition and working memory in patients with alcohol dependence.Methods A total of forty-eight alcohol dependent patients and fifty age,gender,IQ,education matched controls were recruited.Neuropsychological tests were applied to measure the differences of response inhibition and working memory between the two groups.Results In the response inhibition task,the patient group had more commission errors ((7.02± 3.48) vs (3.45± 1.52)) and longer reaction time ((605.45 ± 142.56)ms vs (435.72±51.18)ms) compared to the control group (t=6.534,P=0.000; t=7.781,P=0.000).In the spacial working memory task,the patient group also had more commission errors ((4.58± 3.45) vs (0.43± 0.88)) and longer reaction time((10566.16±2455.61) ms vs (9185.44±2677.52) ms) than control (t=8.085,P =0.000; t=2.657,P=0.009).Conclusion There are significant deficiencies in response inhibition and working memory in patients with alcohol dependence.

Objective To investigate the effect of neonatal overfeeding on the expression of lipid metabolic associated enzymes and molecular mechanisms in the livers of rats. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to litter sizes of three group ( small litters,SL group) or ten ( normal litters,NL group) on postnatal day 3. Body weight,milk intake,liver and fat pad (epididymal and retroperitonea) weight,and hepatic histological anal-ysis were recorded in week 2 and week 3,respectively. The levels of lipids were detected by the automatic biochemical analyzer. The mRNA expressions of acetyl-CoA carboxylase ( ACC) ,lipoprotein lipase ( LPL) ,liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1(CPT1),microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) and peroxisome proliferator activated receptorα(PPARα) in liver were determined by real time PCR;the protein expressions of SREBP-1c and PPARα were determined by Western lot. Results As early as week 2,the body weight of rats in SL group began to elevate (t=-5. 997,P<0. 001) and food intake (t=-3. 462,P=0. 002) compared with the rats in NL group,and persistent to weaning (body weight:t=-17. 019,P<0. 001;food intake:t=-2. 276,P=0. 031). By the time of 3 weeks old,SL rats increased visceral fat pad [ret-roperitonea (t=-7. 643,P<0. 001),epididymal (t=5. 997,P=0. 001)],liver weight (t=-7. 812,P<0. 001),hepatosomatic index (t=-3.829,P=0. 003) and serum triglyceride (TG) level (t=-2. 703,P=0. 022) compared with those of NL rats,as well as the level of hepatic ACC mRNA (t=-3. 751,P=0. 007),LPL (t=-2. 721,P=0. 017) and L-FABP mRNA (t=-2. 521,P=0. 026) . While CPT1 mRNA (t=-1. 531,P=0. 155) and MTP mRNA (t=-1. 741,P=0. 098) levels remained unchanged in both groups. Hepatic SREBP-1c mRNA expression increased in SL rats after 2 to 3 weeks (t=-2. 836,P=0. 016),paralleled with ACC and LPL mRNA expression;while the mRNA and protein expression of PPARα re-mained unchanged (t=-0. 854,P=0. 411). Conclusions Postnatal overfeeding can promote higher liver pad and dyslip-idemia at the time of weaning. The process may be regulated by up-regulated expression of ACC, LPL and L-FABP. SREBP-1c may be participated in the regulation of ACC,a rate-limiting enzyme involved in lipogenesis.

Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanism of β-carotene on inflammatory factors (IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-α) in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells.Methods:Firstly,RAW264.7 cells of being induced by 4 (5 μg/ml)for 24 h were treated with different concentration of β-carotene (20,40,80,160 pmol/L)for 3 h.The cells viability was measured by MTIT,the mRNA relative expression of IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-cα was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR,the secretion capacity of IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-α was detected by ELISA and the protein relative expression of NF-κB p65 protein was measured by Western blot.Secondly,RAW264.7 cells were induced by LPS(5 μg/ml) and different concentration of PDTC(1,5,10 μg/ml)for 24 h,NF-κB p65 protein was measured by Western blot and inflammatory factors were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR and ELISA.Finally,compared the changes in the relative expression of inflammatory factors and NF-κB p65 protein between LPS+PDTC group and LPS+PDTC + β-carotene group.Results:Compared with the LPS-induced group,β-carotene could increase the cell viability of LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells and inhibied the relative expression of inflammatory factors and NF-κB p65 protein.Inhibited the relative expression of NF-κB p65 protein could reduce the relative expression of inflammatory factors.Compared with the LPS+PDTC group,LPS +PDTC + β-carotene group could inhibit the relative expression of inflammatory factors significantly (P＜0.05).But,there was little difference about the relative expression of NF-κB p65 protein between this two groups.Conclusion:β-carotene inhibits the relative expression of inflammatory factors(IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-α) in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells through inhibition of NF-κB p65 protein in NF-κB pathway,this pathway isn't unique.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of modulated medium frequency current therapy (MMFCT) combined with infrared therapy on patients of acute facial neuritis. Methods A total of forty-six patients with acute facial neuritis were divided into two groups (observation group and control group) randomly and medially. Every patient received medication. Meanwhile, observation group received MMFCT and infrared therapy. Before the treatment, and after two and four weeks of treatment, Portmann scale were used to evaluate the autonomic movements of the facial expression muscles on both sides. After 4 weeks of treatment, the outcome was evaluated by House-Brackmann facial nerve grading system. Results There were no significant differences in Portmann scales before treatment between two groups. Portmann scales were higher in observation group than those of control group after two and four weeks of treatment (P<0.05). With the duration of treatment, Portmann scales were increased successively in two groups. The significant difference was found in multiple comparisons between groups. After 4 weeks of treatment, the efficacy was significant in the observation group, compared with control group, the difference was significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Modulated medium frequency current therapy combined with infrared therapy have a better effect than isolated medication.
