NF-?B, a group of important transcription factors, are introduced and discussed here on several aspects: their component and molecular structure; their activity control by I?B and IKK, the mechanism of their activation; their important roles in transcriptional regulation for large numbers of genes; and their importance in immunity, inflammation, cell survival, proliferation and apoptosis. The analysis of the relation between NF-?B and disease occurrence, the analysis of the relation between NF-?B and disease therapy, and the application prospect of the new strategy regarding the novel drug design and correlative diseases therapy on the basis of NF-?B as the target, are also included.

Objective To identify the effect of blood pool 18F-FDG activity on liver SUV and to investigate the optimal normalization method.Methods PET/CT and common serological examination items from 1 018 subjects were retrospectively collected.Mean SUV of liver and blood were recorded as SUVmean(L) and SUVmean (B),respectively.The difference and quotient of SUVmean(L) and SUV mean (B) were calculated as SUVmean (L-B) and SUVmean (L/B),respectively.CV of SUVmean (L),SUVmean (L-B) and SUVmean(L/B) were calculated to assess their inter-individual variations.Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship of SUVmean(L),SUVmean(L-B),SUVmean(L/B) with SUVmean(B).Multiple linear stepwise regression was performed to identify their vulnerability to common serological examination items.Results CV of SUVmean(L/B) (15.1％) was less than that of SUmean(L) (23.2％) and SUVmean(L-B) (40.6％).Correlation between SUVmean(L) and SUVmean(B) (r =0.820,P＜0.001) was more significant than that between SUVmean(L-B) and SUVmean(B) (r =0.205,P＜0.001) as well as between SUVmean (L/B) and SUVmean (B) (r=-0.376,P＜0.001).Blood glucose and BMI correlated with SUVmean(L) and SUVmean(L/B),but not with SUV (B).Age and HDL correlated with SUVmean(L) and SUVmean(B),but not with SUV (L/B).Fatty liver was significantly associated with SUV mean (L/B) (β =-0.047,P ＜0.001),but not with SUVmean(L) and SUVmean (B).Conclusions 18 F-FDG activity of blood pool affects liver SUV.SUV mean (L/B) is a simple and reliable normalization method since its inter-individual variation and vulnerability to common serological examination items are relatively lower than liver SUV.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of compound ocimum oil oral suspension in the treatment of children with acute diarrhea(Piweixure Syndrome).Methods 382 children with acute diarrhea(Piweixure Syndrome) were selected for the multi center and open clinical trial.All patients was treated by compound ocimum oil oral suspension based on age and weight,6 months below 3mL thrice a day,6-＜ 12months 5mL thrice a day,12-＜24 months 10mL thrice a day,24 months upper 20-40 mL thrice a day.The course was three days.The efficacy and safety was observed.Results The total efficiency was 93.98％,there were 274 cases with marked effect and 85 case with effective in analysis on clinical efficacy.There were significant differences between before and after therapy on symptoms and signs as defecation frequency,defecation characters and defecation disesthesia (x2 =467.43,524.51,263.03,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Compound ocimum oil oral ouspension in the treatment of children with acute diarrhea(Piweixure Syndrome) has definite effect and safety.It would be applied to clinical wildly with advantages as shorten the course,decreased diarrhea times and improved clinical symptoms.

Aim To explore the interaction between nitric oxide( NO) and hydrogen sulfide(H 2S) on the relaxation reactivity of pulmonary arteries in rats.Methods Seven male healthy rats were anaesthesed with chloral hydrate; the pulmonary artery of each rat was removed for the study. Th e reactivities of pulmonary artery rings in response to different doses of NO do nar-sodium nitroprusside(SNP) and H 2S donar-NaHS were measured in vitro.DL-propargylglycine(PPG)and N?-nitor-L-methyl ester(L-NAME) were provided to pulmonary artery, respectively;the relaxation reactivities of pulmonary artery were observed.Results The relaxation reactivities of pulmonary arteries showed a dose-dependent increase in response to different doses of SNP and H 2S.The relaxation reactivity to SNP decreased by PPG. The relaxation reactivity to H 2S decreased by L-NAME.Conclusion H 2S acted as a vasorelaxator either independently or accompanied with NO, SNP acted as a vasorelaxator either independently or accompanied with H 2S;the networ k of gastransmitter played an important role in the relaxation of pulmonary arte ries.

To investigate whether glutamate and voltage-gated calcium channels-independent calcium influx exists during acute anoxic neuronal damage and its possible relationship to neuronal protective function of NGF. In in vitro model of acute anoxia, hippocampal cultures from newborn rats were exposed to 3 mmol/L KCN. Changes of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) were monitored by con-focal imaging and cell viability was assayed by PI and cFDA staining. The results showed that after treatment with primary hippocampal cultures with 3 mmol/L KCN for 15 min, [Ca(2+)](i) was significantly increased 6.27-fold compared to pre-anoxia level and 73.3% of the cells died. When combination of 20 mumol/L MK-801 (glutamate receptor antagonist), 40 mumol/L CNQX (AMPA receptor antagonist) and 5 mumol/L nimodipine (voltage-gated calcium channel antagonist) (hereafter denoted as MCN) were administrated to hippocampal cultures, levels of [Ca(2+)](i) and cell death rate induced by KCN were partially reduced by 35.9% and 47.5% respectively. However, Gd(3+) (10 mumol/L) almost completely blocked KCN-mediated [Ca(2+)](i) elevation by 81.9% and reduced neuronal death by 88.8% in the presence of MCN. It is noteworthy that NGF, used in combination with MCN, inhibited KCN-induced [Ca(2+)](i) increase by 77.4% and reduced cell death by 87.1%. Only PLC inhibitor U73122 (10 mumol/L) abolished NGF effects. It is concluded that Gd(3+)-sensitive calcium influx, which is NMDA (glutamate receptor) and voltage-gated calcium channels-independent, is responsible for acute anoxic neuronal death. NGF can inhibit Gd(3+)-sensitive calcium influx and reduce anoxic neuronal death through activating PLC pathway.

To investigate the effect of C/EBP βon the neuroinflammation.Recently,neuroinflamma-tion research mainly focused on C/EBP β,more and more researches indicated that C/EBP βmay play an important role in neurodegenerative diseases.We searched the published papers in PubMed,CNKI,and Wan Fang date bases in June 2015.The key words were used asCCAAT enhancer binding protein beta,Neu-ron,Neuroinflammationand so on.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we summaried and analyzed the literatures.Eventually,42 articles were adapted,most of which were foused on the functions and mechanisms of C/EBP βin neuroinflammation.C/EBP βparticipate in multiple signaling pathways of neu-roinflammation,and the regulation mechanism is complicated.Abrogation of C/EBPβexpression or its down-regulation by gene regulation may may serve as a therapeutic target to attenuate deleterious effects in neural tissue and ultimately prevent the development of neurodegenerative disorders.

Objective To investigate the value of advanced virtual monoenergetic technique(mono-plus) of dual-energy CT (DECT) in improving imaging quality of the lliofemoral arteries.Methods Forty consecutive patients underwent DECT scan.Mono-plus images (40 keV),optimal monoenergy images and mixed energy images were obtained by using Siemens Syngo.via VB10A workstation.CT values,signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and subjective image quality were calculated in the abdominal aorta,iliac artery,external iliac artery,femoral artery,profound femoral artery, lateral circumflex femoral artery,transversal branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery,medial circumflex femoral artery and profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery and compared among the three groups.Results Compared with the optimal monoenergy and mixed energy groups,CT value and CNR of the 9 arteries were significantly higher in the mono-plus group (P<0.003).SNR of the transversal branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery and the profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery showed no significant difference (P>0.05) among the threegroups,whereas SNR of the arties bigger than the 6th grade branch were significantly lower in the mono-plus group (P<0.05).The subjective image quality in the mono-plus group was significant better than the other two groups(P<0.001).Conclusion 40 keV mono-plus technique in DECT can improve the display of lliofemoral arteries especially the small and distal branches.
