Objective To study the effect of exogenous nitric oxide donor sodium nitroprusside(SNP)on antioxidant en?zymes activities and lipid peroxidation of mice infected with Trichinella spiralis. Methods BALB/c mice were infected with T. spiralis separated by the digestion method. Forty?two days post?infection,the peripheral blood and hepatic tissue from the in?fected or normal mice were collected. Then 4 groups were set:liver homogenate from infected mice+SNP(Group A),liver ho?mogenate from normal mice+SNP(Group B),peripheral blood from infected mice+SNP(Group C),and peripheral blood from normal mice+SNP(Group D). The final concentrations of SNP in each group were set as 0(blank control),2,5,10μmol/L and 30μmol/L,respectively. After reacting with SNP at 37℃for 30 min,the superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathi?one peroxidase(GSH?Px),catalase(CAT)activities,and malondialdehyde(MDA)concentration were examined and com?pared. Results The levels of SOD,CAT,GSH?Px and MDA concentration in the liver and the blood from the mice infected with T. spiralis were significantly higher than those of the normal ones(all P < 0.05). When reacted with 10 μmol/L and 30 μmol/L SNP,the SOD,GSH?Px,and CAT activities in Group A and B decreased significantly(all P<0.05),while the liver MDA concentration reacted with 2-30μmol/L SNP increased obviously(all P<0.05). As reacted with 30μmol/L SNP,the ac?tivities of blood SOD,GSH?Px,and CAT in Group C and D decreased,while the MDA concentration in blood still increased (all P<0.01). When the SNP concentration was in the range of 2-30μmol/L,there were a negative correlation between the SNP concentrations and SOD,GSH?Px,and CAT activities,as well as a positive correlation with the MDA concentration in the liver and blood from the mice infected with T. spiralis(all P<0.05). Conclusions T. spiralis infection could cause oxidative damage to mice,and increase SOD,GSH?Px,and CAT activities. Nitric oxide released from SNP can decrease antioxidase activ?ities,and inhibit the antioxidant capacity of mice infected with T. spiralis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate HIV infection status and its influence factors in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Sichuan province.
METHODSA face to face investigation and Syphilis and HIV serological detection were conducted among 2 783 MSM who have the insertion of oral or anal sex with men over the past year recruited by snowball sampling and respondent driven sampling methods in nine cities' Gay venues of Sichuan province. χ(2) test and logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.
RESULTSA total of 2 783 MSM were surveyed, of which HIV and Syphilis infection rates were 11.1% (147/2 783) , 5.3% (310/2 783) , respectively. The HIV infection rates of <20 year-old age group, 20-29 year-old age group, 30-39 year-old age group, 40-49 year-old age group, ≥ 50 year-old age group were 6.6% (15/227), 9.7% (143/1 471), 11.8% (80/679), 18.0% (53/294), 17.0% (19/112) (χ(2) = 25.91, P < 0.05). The risk of HIV infection in 30-39 year-old age group, 40-50 year-old age group,> 50 years age group were 2.05 (1.14-3.69) times, 3.24 (1.75-6.01) times, 2.60 (1.22-5.52) times respectively of the <20 years age group. The risk of HIV infection in middle school and below one was 16.5% (73/443) , higher than the high school/college education MSM (11.1% (99/891) ) and the college and higher education MSM (9.5% (138/1 446)) (χ(2) = 16.46, P < 0.05). The risk of HIV infection in High school/college education MSM were 0.64 (0.45-0.90) times of the middle school and below. The HIV infection rates of MSM who accepted a HIV test and knew the result within the last year was 8.2% (119/1 446) , lower than the group who did not accepted any HIV test (14.3% (191/1 336) ) (χ(2) = 25.81, P < 0.05). The HIV infection rates of MSM who received intervention services was 10.1% (256/2 539), lower than the group who did not receive any intervention services (22.1% (54/244) ) (χ(2) = 32.65, P < 0.05) . The HIV infection rates of Syphilis-positive MSM was 32.0% (47/147) , higher than the Syphilis-negative one (10.0% (263/2 636) ) (χ(2) = 68.06, P < 0.05). Received intervention services (OR (95%CI) was 0.52 (0.40-0.68) ) and accepted a HIV test and knew the result within the last year (OR (95%CI) was 0.52 (0.36-0.74) ) were the protective factors of HIV infection. At the same time, the syphilis infection (OR (95%CI) was 4.01 (2.73-5.88) ) were risk factors for HIV infection.
CONCLUSIONThe prevalence rates of HIV infections were considered to be high among MSM in Sichuan province. The MSM of low-literacy, 30 years or older, not received any intervention services, not received any intervention services.Syphilis-positive have a greater risk of HIV infection.

Objective To observe the effect of excretory/secretory products from Trichinella spiralis adult worms(AES)on cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)?induced sepsis in mice. Methods Forty?eight BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:a sham operation group(PBS+sham group,Group A),a CLP?induced sepsis group(PBS+CLP group,Group B)and an AES treatment group(AES+ CLP group,Group C). The mice of each group were intraperitoneally injected with 25 μg of AES or PBS only as a control in a total volume of 200μl. Eight mice from each group were selected randomly for survival analy?sis of 96 hours. The other 8 mice in each group were observed for pathological changes in the lung,liver and kidney tissues by HE staining 12 h after CLP,and then determined for the detection of cytokines including TNF?α,IL?1β,IL?6,IL?10 and TGF? βin the sera by ELISA. Results The difference among the survival rates of mice in the 3 groups was statistically significant (χ2=21.16,P<0.05). Compared to Group A(100%),the survival rate of mice in Group B(0)decreased significantly(P<0.05),and also the pathological damage degrees in the lung,liver and kidney tissues of the mice in Group B increased signifi?cantly after CLP. Compared with the mice in group B,the survival rate of those in Group C(70%)increased significantly(P<0.05),and the pathological damage degrees in the lung,liver and kidney tissues of the mice in Group C decreased significantly after the treatment with AES. The differences among the levels of pro?inflammatory cytokines TNF?α(F=27.11,P<0.05),IL?1β(F=18.75,P<0.05)and IL?6(F=100.93,P<0.05)in the sera of the mice in the three groups were statistically signifi?cant. Compared with the mice in Group A,the levels of the 3 cytokines of those in Group B increased significantly(all P <0.05). However,after the treatment with AES,the levels of the pro?inflammatory cytokines of those in Group C decreased signifi?cantly(all P<0.05). The differences among the levels of immunoregulatory cytokines IL?10(F=10.88,P<0.05)and TGF?β(F=11.37,P<0.05)in the sera of the mice in the three groups were also statistically significant. Compared with the mice in Group B,the levels of IL?10 and TGF?β of those in Group C were higher after treatment with AES(both P<0.05). Conclu?sion T. spiralis AES has a therapeutic potential for alleviating sepsis induced by CLP in mice.

Objective To investigate the role of LncRNA ROR in Ad36-induced browning of human adipose-derived stem cells(hADSC). Methods After hADSC was induced by cocktail and Ad36 for 2,4,6,and 8 days,Oil red O staining was performed for observing the adipogenic status. The mRNA expressions of LncRNA ROR, uncoupling protein 1(UCP1),and PRDM16 were detected by real-time PCR and the protein expressions of UCP1 and PRDM16 were detected by Western-blot. After LncRNA ROR was knocked down by siRNA, UCP1 and PRDM16 mRNA and protein expression levels in the process of Ad36-induced adipocyte differentiation were detected by real-time PCR and Western-blot. Results Oil red O staining showed that fat droplets in the cocktail-induced group were larger than those in the Ad36-induced group. Compared with the cocktail group,the mRNA expressions of LncRNA ROR, UCP1 and PRDM16, and the protein expressions of UCP1 and PRDM16 in Ad36 group were significantly increased(P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expressions of UCP1 and PRDM16 in LncRNA ROR knockdown group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05). Conclusion In the process of Ad36-induced hADSC differentiation,the up-regulation of LncRNA ROR may stimulate UCP1 and PRDM16 expression,and thus promote the browning of hADSC.
