The changes ot free radicals matebolism in liver of rat fed grains from a Keshan disease endemic area and the effects of selenium and vitamin E on those were studied. The endemic grains that were deficient in selenium caused markedly decrease in the glutathione peroxidase activity, and marked increase in the lipid peroxides content and the free radicals level of the rat livers. The diets that supplemented the endemic grains with either selenium (0.22 mg/kg diets) or DL-alpha-tocopherol (100 mg /kg diets) caused the falls in the lipid peroxides content and the free rdicaals level. There was a marked rise in the al pha-tocopherol content and reduced glutathione content in livers of rats fed grains from the endemic area, suggesting an increased reqiu-rement of vitamin E and production of glutathione in the selenium-defi-cient rats. The results indicate that a disorder of free radicals metaboli- sm is induced by the pathogenic factors existing in the grains cultiva-ted in a Keshan disease endemic area, and is reduced by supplementing the grains with sodium selenium or vitamin E, suggesting that relative lack of vitamin E may play an important role in the mechanism of Keshan disease onset.

Objective To study the effect of infrasound on expression of calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) and tau pro-tein in hippocampus of rats. Methods Fifty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into control group (n=8), 1-day group (n=8), 7-day group (n=8) and 14-day group (n=32), and the 14-day group was subgrouped as 1-hour, 6-hour, 24-hour, 48-hour subgroups, naming after the time after infrasound exposure, 8 in each subgroup. All the test groups were put in an infrasound field with 8 Hz, 130 dB for 2 hours daily, while the control group was put in the infrasound instrument without infrasound exposure for 2 hours daily. The expression of pT286-CaMKII and tau protein in hippocampus was detected with immunohistochemisty, Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunoabsor-bent assay. Results The expression of pT286-CaMKII was the most in 14-day group (F>14.912, P<0.001), as well as the expression of tau pro-tein (F>36.229, P<0.001), and secondary in 7-day group (P<0.05). For 14-day group, the expression of tau protein was the most in 1-hour and 6-hour subgroups, and dropped down in 24-hour subgroup, although more than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Exposure of 8 Hz, 130 dB infrasound may induce phosphorylation of CaMKII and tau protein, and the expression of tau protein in hippocampal cells in rat, which may disturb their learning and memory function.

Objective To investigate the significance of resistant gene detection combined with adenosine triphosphate-tumor chemosensitivity assay (ATP-TCA) in the second-line chemotherapy of lung squamous cell cancer, and to provide a reference for clinical treatment. Methods 150 patients with lung squamous cell cancer diagnosed by histopathology or cytology and with the disease progressed after NP regime chemotherapy were enrolled. The mRNA expressions of excision repair cross complementation 1 (ERCC1) and ribonucleotide reductase M1 (RRM1) were detected by RT-PCR, and ATP-TCA was carried out. After detected by RT-PCR and ATP-TCA, the patients who were sensitive to gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GP) accepted the second-line systemic chemotherapy with GP regimen, and the others who were not sensitive to GP regimen or whose results of gene detection and ATP-TCA were on the contrary took the second-line chemotherapy regimens with docetaxel plus cisplatin (DP). Both groups accepted 2-4 cycles of systemic chemotherapy. The chest CT was followed up, and the response rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS) and median survival time (MST) were investigated. Results The RR of GP group was 36.2 % (17/47), while the DP group was 28.1 % (26/92), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2= 4.274, P< 0.05). The media PFS of GP group and DP group were 4.2 months (95%CI 3.485-5.348 months) and 3.6 months (95 %CI 2.685-4.648 months), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The MST of GP group and DP group were 9.6 months (95 %CI 8.283-10.637 months) and 8.9 months (95 %CI 7.384-9.648 months), respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference (P> 0.05). Conclusion The resistance gene detection combined with ATP-TCA have certain guiding significance on the second-line chemotherapy for advanced lung squamous cell cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effect and regulation of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) on islets function and NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) and autophagy in type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) mice.Methods:Experimental study. Twenty, 8-week-old, male C57BL/6J mice were selected and divided into a normal control group ( n=5) and a high-fat feeding modeling group ( n=15). The model of T2DM was established by high-fat feeding combined with intraperitoneal injection of low-dose streptozotocin. After successful modeling, those mice were divided into a diabetes group ( n=7) and a UC-MSCs treatment group ( n=7). The UC-MSCs treatment group was given UC-MSCs (1×10 6/0.2 ml phosphate buffer solution) by tail vein infusion once a week for a total of 4 weeks; the diabetes group was injected with the same amount of normal saline, and the normal control group was not treated. One week after the treatment, mice underwent intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests and intraperitoneal insulin tolerance tests, and then the mice were sacrificed to obtain pancreatic tissue to detect the expressions of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX-1) by immunofluorescence. The bone marrow-derived macrophages were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide and adenosine triphosphate (experimental group) in vitro, then co-cultured with UC-MSCs for 24 h (treatment group). After the culture, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the secretion level of IL-1β in the supernatant, and immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome, and related autophagy proteins. Statistical analysis was performed using unpaired one-way analysis of variance, repeated measure analysis of variance. Results:In vivo experiments showed that compared with the diabetes group, the UC-MSCs treatment group partially repaired islet structure, improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity (all P<0.05), and the expression of PDX-1 increased and IL-1β decreased in islets under confocal microscopy. In vitro experiments showed that compared with the experimental group, the level of IL-1β secreted by macrophages in the treatment group was decreased [(85.9±74.6) pg/ml vs. (883.4±446.2) pg/ml, P=0.001], the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome and autophagy-related protein P62 was decreased, and the expressions of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3β (LC3) and autophagy effector Beclin-1 were increased under confocal microscopy. Conclusions:UC-MSCs can reduce the level of pancreatic inflammation in T2DM mice, preserving pancreatic function. This might be associated with the ability of UC-MSCs to inhibit the activity of NLRP3 inflammasomes in macrophages and enhance autophagy levels.
