Objective To investigate the changes of bone mineral density (BMD) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients in Changsha,and take intervention measures to prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis and fracture.Methods A total of 278 HIV-infected patients and 154 cases of healthy adults from March 2011 to May 2015 were selected.Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to detect BMD,T-score and Z-score of all the research objects,including the whole body,lumbar spine (L2～4),and left hip joint.The height and weight were measured at the same time.Results The HIV infection group had an average age of (31.53 ± 8.56) years old,and the healthy control group was (34.45 ± 8.22) years old.Height between two groups had no significant difference.The average weight of HIV infection group was 6.93 kg [95％ CI,-9.01,-4.97;P ＜0.001] lighter than that in the normal control group.BMD,T-score and Z-score of HIV infection group were significantly lower than those in norrmal control group (P ＜ 0.001).The occurrence rate of osteopenia (Z ≤-1.0)and osteoporosis (Z ≤-2.0)in HIV infection group were correspondingly 43.53％ ～ 54.68％ and 9.71％ ～23.74％,which is about 4 times of that in the healthy control group (14.28％ ～ 20.13％,0.65％ ～ 5.84％).Conclusions The average body weight of HIV-infected patients was significantly lower than that of normal control group,and the incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis in HIV-infected group was significantly higher than that in normal control group.

Objective:To investigate the effect of dosages of propofol on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction(HPV) reaction. Method:Isolated rat lungs were perfused with whole blood at the rate of flow 10ml/min and ventilated with air+4％CO_2(n=5) or 3％ O_2+4％CO_2+93％ N_2(mixed gas, n=11).PAP was measured continuously during the whole procedure. Result:PAP decreased significantly in air+4％ CO_2 ventilation following administralion of propofol 4 mg/kg,6 mg/kg and 8 mg/kg respectively.The varied degrees at 6 mg/kg and 8mg/kg were even more marked than that at 4mg/kg. When mixed gas was ventilated into lung, PAP increased from 1.60+0.23kPa to 2.384?0.31kPa to produce HPV,PAP decreased abruptly in HPV rats when administered 4mg/kg, 6mg/kg and 8mmg/kg propofol respectively and HPV reaction was inhibited by 47％, 867％and 71％ respectively,the inhibition extent was more at 6mg/kg or 8mg/kg than that at 4mg/kg. Conclusion:Propofol can decrease PAP and inhibite HPV in dose-dependent way.

Objective To establish a novel and convenient method to study the phenotype of drug resistant hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolates,and to analyze the drug susceptibility by replacing the reverse transcriptase (RT) domain of wild-type HBV with that of the drug resistant HBV isolates.Methods Full length of HBV isolates was amplified and cloned from the sera of patients prior to nucleoside/nucleotide analogues (NA) treatment.Wild-type full-length HBV genomes was used to construct the recombinant expression plasmids PHY536207 (genotype B) and PHY97 (genotype C).The restriction enzyme sites were introduced in the upstream and downstream region of reverse transeription (RT) domain to construct plasmid,which were named as mPHY536207 and mPHY97,respectively.Lamivudine (LAM) resistant mutant and adefovir (ADV) resistant mutant were isolated and cloned to construct recombinant expression plasmids PHY634 and PHY6923,respectively.Subsequently,the RT domain of mPHY536207 was replaced by that of drug resistant mutant to construct the plasmids RT634 (LAM-resistant) and RT6923 (ADVresistant).The HBV constructs were transfected into Huh7 cells.The HBsAg levels in supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosobent assay (ELISA),and the amount of intracellular HBV DNA was assayed by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot analysis.Results The plasmids PHY536207 and PHY97 containing genotype B and genotype C wild-type fulllength HBV genomes were constructed successfully,both of which could replicate in Huh7 cells.Intracellular HBV DNA extracted from cells in each of six-well culture plates was more than 1 × 107 copy/ mL,and the introduction of Pst Ⅰ restriction enzyme site did not affect the viral replication and HBsAg secretion.PHY634 and RT634,in which mutant RT domain was replaced into a wild type HBV expressing vector,exhibited the same HBV DNA replication under the treatment with different doses of LAM,the value of 50％ inhibitory concentration (IC50) was ＞100 μmol/L,while the IC50 of mPHY536207 was 0.18μmol/L.Moreover,wild-type isolate was sensitive to ADV (IC50 =1.2 μmol/L),while PHY6923 and RT6923 were resistant to ADV treatment (IC50 ＞100 μmol/L).Conclusion The phenotypic assay is successfully developed in this study based on replacing RT domain of wild-type HBV strains with that of clinical isolated drug resistant strain.

Objective To investigate the influence of pertussis toxin(PTX)on G protein-coupled estrogen receptor(GPER)-mediated activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)signaling activated by 17 β-estradiol(17β-E2)in endometrial carcinoma cells.Methods Expressions of GPER protein were detected by immunohistochemical SP method in Ishikawa and HEC-1A cells.Changes of levels of GPER,ERα and ERβ protein and the activation of Akt protein were observed by western blot in the two cells after they were treated by PTX for 30 minutes at different concentrations(0,0.1,0.5,1.0 μg/ml),and then co-stimulated with with 1 × 10-6 mol/L 17β-E2 respectively at different time (Ishikawa 30 minutes,HEC-1A 15 minutes).Results(1)Immunohistochemical SP method showed that GPER was positive stained in cell cytoplasm of Ishikawa and HEC-1A cell.(2)After co-treated with PTX at different concentrations(0,O.1,0.5,1.0 μg/ml)and 10-6 mol/L 17β-E2,in Ishikawa cell,the ratio of pAkt/Akt was 0.74 ±0.54,0.34 ±0.06,0.18 ±0.03,0.07 ±0.15,the gray values of GPER was 0.872 ± 0.490,0.395 ± 0.054,0.145 ± 0.014,0.034 ± 0.008,and with increasing concentration of PTX,the ratio of p-Akt/Akt and the expression of GPER decreased gradually(P ＜ 0.05),which was most obviously when the concentration was 1.0 μg/ml(F =63.729,P =0.0001;F =160.284,P =0.0001);ERα and ERβ protein had no significant change among different groups(P ＞0.05).In HEC-1A cell,the ratio of pAkt/Akt was 0.73 ±0.09,0.26 ±0.14,0.11 ±0.03,0,the Gray values of GPER is 0.927 ±0.134,0.485 ± 0.022,0.194 ± 0.004,0,and with increasing concentration of PTX,the ratio of p-Akt/Akt and the expression of GPER decreased gradually(P ＜ 0.05),which were also completely inhibited when the concentration was 1 μg/ml(F =1039.321,P =0.0001;F =109.646,P =0.0001),ERα protein had no significant differences(P ＞ 0.05)among different groups.ERβ was negatively expressed.Conclusion The results proposed that the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling in Ishikawa and HEC-1A cells could be inhibited after blocking the role of GPER by PTX.

Objective To investigate the effects of adefovir resistance related mutations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) reverse transcription (RT) region on the viral replication and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) secretion. Methods Twelve adefovir treated chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who experienced a viral breakthrough were enrolled in this study. The RT region was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using HBV DNA extracted from sera as the template. PCR products were then sequenced and analyzed to find out mutation patterns. Full-length HBV genome was amplified from 4 representative serum samples followed by direct sequencing. The dominant strain was cloned into vector PHY106 to construct a recombinant plasmid containing the 1.1 unit of HBV genome Which was transfected into Huh7 cells. HBsAg and hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) expression were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), meanwhile intracellular HBV DNA level was determined by quantitative real-time PCR. Furthermore strain harboring rtA181T/sW172 · mutation and strain without rtA181 mutation were cotransfected into Huh7 cells. HBsAg and intracellular HBV DNA were also determined after transfection. Results Ten out the 12 patients enrolled in this study exhibited mutations conferring resistance to adefovir. The rtA181T mutation was detected in 5 cases, and the rtA181T/S+rtN236T mutation was observed in 4 cases. Different mutants showed variable HBsAg secretion competency in vitro. Despite the defect of HBsAg secretion of the rtA181T/sW172 · mutant, the replication efficiency was almost the same in different mutants. When the strains with and without rtA181 mutation were cotranfected into cells, the HBsAg level increased in accordance with the amount of stains without rtA181 mutation. However, the intracellular HBV DNA level was not changed significantly. Conclusions The rtA181 mutation is common in patients with adefovir resistance, of which the rtA181T mutation is the major pattern. In vitro analysis reveals that the rtA181T/sW172 · mutant is defective in HBsAg secretion which could be rescued by coexistence of wild-type strains. The replication efficiency in various mutants shows no obvious differences.

Objective To investigate the effects of high-fat diets and rosiglitazone treatment on the expressions of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) and mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) in skeletal muscle of aged rats. Methods Male wistar rats aged 21-23 months were randomly divided into old control group (OC; n=20), high-fat diets group (HF; n=20) and high-fat diets plus rosiglitazone treatment group (RSG; n=20). Male wistar rats aged 4-5 months were selected as young control group (YC; n=20). Insulin sensitivity was evaluated by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique at the end of the 4th and 8th week. The expressions at mRNA and protein levels of PGC-1α and Mfn2 in skeletal muscle were determined by polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting technique. Results (1)After 8 weeks, the levels of free fatty acid [(0. 68±0. 18)mmol/L, (0.82±0. 23) mmol/L and (1. 53±0.40) mmol/L], triglyceride [(0.53±0.13) mmol/L,(0. 63±0. 17) mmol/L and (1.08±0.30) mmol/L]and muscle triglyceride [(1.09±0.17) mmol/L,(1.34±0. 20) mmol/L and (2.07±0. 30) mmol/L]in YC group, OC group and HF group were significantly increased and glucose infusion rate [(30.4±4. 2) mg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1), (20.9±2.2) mg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1) and (12. 0±1.9) mg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1)]was significantly decreased as compared with pre-high fat diet, respectively. The levels of fasting free fatty acid [(0.93±0.29) mmol/L], triglyceride [(0.62±0.12) mmol/L]and music triglyceride [(1.68±0.28) mmol/L]in RSG group were significantly decreased and glucose infusion rate [(16.7±1.7) mg·kg~(-1)·min~(-1)]was significantly higher than in HF group. (2)In skeletal muscle, the expressions at mRNA and protein levels of PGC-1α and Mfn2 decreased in OC group compared with YC group (all P<0.01). The expressions of PGC-1α and Mfn2 were lower significantly in HF group than in OC group, and were higher significantly in RSG group than in HF group (all P<0.01). Conclusions The aged rats fed the high-fat diets develop insulin resistance with decreased expressions of PGC-1α and Mfn2 in skeletal muscle. Insulin sensitivity is improved with rosiglitazone treatment by increasing expressions of PGC-1α and Mfn2 in skeletal muscle.
