Objective To identify the differential serum proteins in patients with hepatic injury resulting from coal-burning type of arsenism. Methods Six serum samples were collected from patients with liver injury resulting from coal-burning type of arsenism and healthy subjects(control gruop) in endemic arsenism area. Twodimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE) was performed to separate serum proteins, after silver staining, the differential expression of proteins were analyzed and then identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS). Results The 2-DE map of serum protein patterns of patients and normal control were established successfully. The results showed that there were an average of (824 ± 31 ) spots and (782 ± 42) spots on 2-DE matching of the patients and control groups and the matching rate was 94.9%(782/824). From these two groups 49 differential protein spots were identified, of which over 3 times the difference in the expression of 30 protein spots were singled out and MALDI-TOF-MS analysis was carried out. Ten proteins were identified. Upregulated expression was observed in alpha-2-macroglobulin, B-cell receptor-associated protein, keratin 1,apolipoprotein A-I, and down-regulated expression was observed in haptoglobin, α2-heremans-schimid-glycoprotein,mitogen-activated protein kinase 4, zinc finger protein 323, ZAP-70 and SP40 in the patient group. Conclusions The well-resolved and reproducible 2-DE serum patterns of patients are established and some differentially expressed proteins are characterized. Whether these proteins of differential expression are serum markers for liver injury resulting from coal-burning type of arsenism need to be further verified.

Background Researches have showed that the extraocular muscle injection of insulin-like growth factor(IGF) results in the thickness of extraocular muscle and enhancement of contractility,and lack of IGF probably is associated with pathogenesis of strabismus.If extraocular muscle injection of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4(IGFBP-4),an inhibitor of IGF,can further ensure the effect of IGF is still under-investigation.Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of IGFBP-4 on the developing extraocular muscle.Methods IGFBP-4 of 2 μl(1 g/L)was injected into superior rectus muscles via supraorbital margin in the left eyes of 24 postnatal l-day-old chickens once every other day for five times,and the equivalent amount of normal saline solution was used in the same way in the fellow eyes as controls.The animals were sacrificed by overdose of anesthesia 2 days after the final injection and 12 animals were randomly selected for the maximal contractility test of superior rectus muscle.The other 12 pieces of superior rectus muscle of the chickens were obtained for the hematoxylin & eosin staining to evaluate the morphology of superior rectus muscle and calculate the myofiber diameter using imaging system.Results The maximal contractility was (1.602 ± 0.080) mN and(1.815±0.O10)mN in the IGFBP-4 injection group and normal saline solution group respectivily,showing a significant difference between the two groups(t =13.65,P<0.01).The maximal contraction force in cross-sectional area was (95.500 ± 7.420) mN/cm2 in the IGFBP-4 injection group and it was significantly lower than that of the normal saline solution group(101.510±5.220)mN/cm2(t =28.81,P<0.01).Histological examination showed that thin myofibers were obvious more in the IGFBP-4 injection group than those with saline injection.The mean diameter was (8.7 ± 0.5) μm in the IGFBP-4 injected group,and that of the normal saline group was(9.1 ±0.4) μm,there was no significant difference between them (t =0.75,P =0.46).However,significant differences were found in the number of different diameters of myofibers between the two groups(all at P<0.05).Conclusions IGF is one of the key nutrition factors in the development of extraocular musele.The extraocular muscle injection of IGFBP-4 may cause the dysfunction and morphologic abnormality of extraocular muscle.

Objective To study the association of liver fat content (LFC) with insulin resistance and β cell function. Methods One hundred and nine subjects including 31 cases with impaired glucose regulation (IGR), 31 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (NT2DM) and 47 normal controls (NC) with normal metabolic parameters were involved in the study. LFC was measured by 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) and the insulin resistance and β cell function were evaluated by oral 75 g glucose tolerance test. Results (1 ) LFCs were3.83% (2.35% ~7.59% ) ,12. 82% (8.10%~21.37%), and 21.99% (11.89%~34.43%), being progressively raised in the respective NC, IGR, NT2DM groups(P<0.01). (2) The subjects were divided into four subgroups according to LFC Quartile: Quartile 1 (LFC<4. 04% ) , Quartile 2(4. 04% ≤LFC<9. 77% ), Quartile 3 (9.77% ≤LFC<20.78% ) ,and Quartile 4( LFC≥20.78% ). Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) values were elevated significantly and progressively starting from Quartile 2(P<0. 01). (3) Insulin from 0 to 30 min ( △I30), the ratio of insulin from 0 to 30 min to glucose from 0 to 30 min ( △I30/ △G30) , C peptide from 0 to 30 min (△CP30) had a trend of increase in Quartile 2,then trended to decrease in Quartile 3. In Quartile 4, △CP30 and △I30/△G30 sharply decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The ratio of C peptide from 0 to 30 min to glucose from 0 to 30 min ( △CP30/△G30) began to decrease from Quartile 3 (P<0. 05). The ratio of area under curve of C peptide to area under curve of glucose (CPAUC/GAUC) was significantly decreased from Quartile 3(P<0.05). From Quartile 3,glucose level became abnormally elevated to impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance (P<0.01). (4) LFC was positively correlated with HOMA-IR (rs =0. 618 ,P<0.01), but was negatively correlated with △CP30(rs =-0.282), △CP30/△G30(rs = -0. 404), and CPAUC/GAUC(rs = -0. 308,all P<0.01). (5) Stepwise regression analysis demonstrated that LFC was the strongest predictor of HOMA-IR. Conclusions When LFC accumulated to 4% , insulin resistance occurred and the early phase of insulin secretion was compensatively increased. As the LFC further accumulated to 10% , both the early phase as well as β cell function in whole were deteriorated, and hyperglycemia developed.

By reviewing pertinent literatures, we found that there existed some defects in studying material base on Chinese medical theory of "Fei and Dachang being interior-exteriorly related", such as the low efficacy of research methods; the neglect of intestinal and respiratory microhabitat and Chinese medical functional condition; and the unconformity of research design with evidence-based medicinal requirements. Thereby, the authors offered that the researches method of initiating merely from sole material or line linkage path should be rejected. The new research strategy should be established based on the feature of the lung and large intestine network connective structure, cutting-in from correlative changes in the two terminals (respiratory system and intestinal tissue), and the intermedial key knot of connection (blood serum), screen out in high throughput the relevant materials adopting microecological, proteomic and metabonomic techniques, and catch hold of the knots of network as much as possible. Based on these to perfect the researches on coordinating mechanism of the network, and to establish a new strategy for future researching.
