1.Effects of resveratrol-induced cellular autophagy in control of neurodegenerative diseases.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2016;51(1):18-22
Cellular autophagy is a major degradative pathway for clearance of aggregate-prone proteins and damaged organelles. It plays an important role in regulating cellular homeostasis, cell growth and development, and disease development. Dysfunctional autophagy contributes to the pathology of various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease, in which specific pathological protein accumulation occurs. A growing body of evidence suggests that resveratrol plays a significantly role in the regulation of autophagy and clearance of pathological proteins. Resveratrol is a potential drug for neurodegenerative diseases therapy. This review focuses on the effects of resveratrol on cellular autophagy and clinical application in the control of neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and related factors of peptic ulcer (PU) and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in military men. Methods A stratified multi-stage cluster randomly sampling method was used. A questionary survey was conducted in 6 160 soldiers garrisoned at south China, inclding: PU symptoms and risk factors questionnaires; gastroscopy and Hp detection. Results Incidence of PU correlative symptoms (Sc≥5) in soldiers was 18.60%. The prevalence of PU was 12.78%.Higher incidence of PU was found among the soldiers who enlisted for less than 1 year, or were from south China, or served in armored troops. The prevalence of Hp infection was 62.67%. Hp infection (OR4.60), smoking (OR3.8), sustained intense training (OR4.3), fighting vehicle driving (OR6.0) and frequent mental intension (OR3.7) seemed to be the main risk factors of PU. While hot food, milk and whether or not the only child in a family showed no relation with PU incidence. Conclusion Higher prevalence of PU and Hp infection existed in service men. For soldiers, PU incidence is closely associated with Hp infection, military training, mental factors, and also related to soldiers′ enlisted period, arm of the service and the region where the soldiers come from.

Objective To establish an animal model of pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis, and compare the roles of single pancreatic juice with pancreatic juice plus bile acids reflux in the pathogenesis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, group A: gastrectomy and end- to- side esophagojejunostomy (pancreatic juice and bile combination group, n=20); group B, gastrectomy and end-to-side esophagojejunostomy and bile-duct-jejunostomy (single pancreatic juice group, n = 20 ); group C: simple laparotomy ( n = 10). The rats were sacrificed 1, 2, 4 weeks after operation, and the change of weight of the rats and esophageal morphology was observed. Results Four rats in combination group died during or after operation, and the success rate of the model was 80%, 6 rats in single pancreatic juice group died, and the success rateof the model was 70%, both group A and B rats lost more weight significantly than that in control group, and the weight gradually increased 2 weeks later, but it was still lower than that in control group [(218 ±21), (216 ±20)g vs. (286 ±28)g, P<0.05]. Reflux esophagitis of different degree was present in both groups, which was more severe in the lower part of esophagus, and severity increased with time. The main histologic changes were inflammation, erosion, ulcer and epithelial cell hyperplasia and metaplasia. The severity of esophagitis was not significantly different between group A and group B. Conclusions The models of single pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis can be successfully made. It establishes the foundation for experimental research of pancreatic juice induced esophageal mucosa injury.

Objective To study the role of nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) and peroxisome proliferation activator receptor-?(PPAR-?) in the development of Barrett's esophagus(BE) and esophagus adenocarcinoma(EA).Methods Fifty BE patients including 25 EA patients admitted in Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Command from Jul.2005 to Jul.2006 were involved in the present study.The expressions of NF-?B and PPAR-? in squamous epithelial cells of normal esophagus,BE and EA were investigated with immunohistochemical staining.The correlation between the expression of both NF-?B and PPAR-? and their clinicopathological features were analyzed.Results Positive staining of NF-?B was situated in cytoplasm,and that of PPAR-? in nuclei.No expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? was found in normal esophageal squamous epithelium,while they expressed in a medium extent in BE(positive staining in cytoplasm of goblet cells and surface glandular epithelium),and extensively expressed in EA.There existed significant difference in expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? in EA compared with those in BE and normal esophageal squamous epithelium(P

Objective To determine the effect of bacille Calmette-Guerin-polysaccharide nucleic acid (BCG/PSN)on 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene(DNCB)-induced atopic dermatitis-like skin lesions in Nc/Nga mice.Methods Fifteen mice were randomly and equally classified into 3 groups,i.e.,control group receiving topical acetone on foot pad and abdomen and intraperitoneal injection of physiological saline,model group receiving topical 5% DNCB solution and intraperitoneal injection of physiological saline,treatment group receiving 5% DNCB solution and intraperitoneal iniection of BCG/PSN,and all drugs were used every other day for 7 weeks.Further more,0.1% DNCB was topically applied on the ear and neck of Nc/Nga mice once a week from week 2 to week 7.The effects of BCG/PSN were evaluated by ear thickness,skin histopathology and immunological parameters.Results Repeated application of DNCB caused the development of eczematous dermatitis in mice.Mice in model group chnieally manifested skin dryness,erythema,edema and erosion with histopathological changes including dermal and epidermal thickening,hyperkeratosis,and inflammatory infiltration.The serum levels of IL-4 and IrE in model group were significantly higher than those in control group[(174.72±12.64)μg/L vs (17.32±3.56)μg/L,(91.49±6.32)ng/L vs (83.95±6.63)ng/L,both P<0.05].Increased serum IL-12 and IFN-γ and decreased serum IgE were observed in treatment group compared with the model group[(122.10±4.64)ng/L vs (20.14±6.15)ng/L(73.89±2.39)ng/L vs (51.53±3.45)ng/L, (84.27±9.35)μg/L vs (174.72±12.64)μg/L, all P<0.05].Conclusion BCG/PSN might be beneficial for the treatment of atopie dermatitis-like skin lesions in Nc/Nga mice by enhancing the secretion of IL-12 and IFN-γ and suppressing the synthesis of IgE.
