Long-term treatment with an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ is associated with bone fractures in the clinical practice. However, the mechanisms underlying the fractures are not fully understood. This study was aimed to examine the effect of rosiglitazone (an agonist of PPAR-γ) of different doses on the proliferation, differentiation, and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1)-induced expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in primary rat osteoblasts in vitro. Osteoblasts were isolated from newly born SD rats and treated with different doses of rosiglitazone (0-20 μmol/L). The proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts were measured by MTT assay and NPP assay, respectively. The expression of CTGF was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. The results showed that most isolated osteoblasts displayed strong alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and treatment with different doses of rosiglitazone did not affect their proliferation, but significantly inhibited the differentiation of osteoblasts in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, treatment with different doses of rosiglitazone significantly reduced the TGF-β1-induced CTGF mRNA transcription and protein expression in a dose-dependent manner in rat osteoblasts. It was concluded that the activation of PPAR-γ may inhibit the differentiation of osteoblasts by reducing the TGF-β1-induced CTGF expression in vitro.

In order to improve the teaching reform of higher education systematically and op-erably, and in order to improve the effectiveness of teaching reform, teaching reform in Higher Educa-tion in the micro system engineering and SIMPP analysis method were proposed. With questionnaire survey on classroom learning state of all students from traditional Chinese medicine Grade 2010-2013 of Beijing University as an example, the principle and operation steps of SIMPP analysis method was systematically discussed. According to the students' related behavior pattern and strategy analysis affected by teachers, the analysis of the results of interpretation method and application direction was illustrated. At the same time, through the monograph, nine aspects (academic diligence level, learning effectiveness of self cognition, learning interest, teacher's influence, self-study ability, class atten-dance, learning objectives, curriculum satisfaction, major satisfaction) were analyzed by SIMPP. By modeling the related factors and their relationship, the internal relations between different factors were cleared, and the students' behavior patterns were found, and the corresponding reform measures were designed. Research shows that the concept and methods of teaching reform in Higher Education in the micro system engineering will produce a positive impact on teaching reform, curriculum reform, and the integration of family education and school education.

In this cross-sectional survey,2 682 traffic policemen in Tianjin were enrolled,and they were tested with Occupational Stress Inventory-Revised (OSI-R) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Body mass index,blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,triglycerides,and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( HDL-C ) were also determined at the same time. Correlation analysis showed that body mass index was positively correlated with somatization ( r =0.039,P =0.045 ),hostility ( r =0.046,P =0.01 8 ),and psychoticism ( r =0.041,P =0.036).Systolic blood pressure was positively correlated to somatization (r =0.056,P =0.004 ),obsessive-compulsiveness ( r =0.044,P =0.023 ),interpersonal sensitivity ( r =0.041,P =0.034 ),depression ( r =0.039,P =0.043),anxiety ( r =0.055,P =0.004 ),and psychoticism ( r =0.051,P =0.009 ).Diastolic blood pressure was positively correlated to somatization ( r =0.047,P =0.015 ),interpersonal sensitivity ( r =0.042,P =0.030 ),anxiety ( r =0.050,P =0.010 ),and psychoticism ( r =0.047,P =0.014 ).Fasting blood glucose was positively correlated to somatization ( r=0.042,P=0.028 ).Multiple regression analysis showed that occupational stress factors were role boundary,physical environment,responsibility,recreation,role ambiguity,role overload,and cognitive coping.Among these factors,role ambiguity and cognitive coping reduced occupational stress while others increased the stress.The results of the unconditional logistical regression analysis showed that there is an independent association of metabolic syndrome with somatization,role insufficiency,and physical strain for the task and body tension ( P<0.01).

Objectives To report a generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa family,identify the deficient protein and related pathogenic gene mutation. Methods The diagnosis was confirmed based on clinical manifestations and necessary examinations. Electron microscopy and immunofluorescent staining were used to detect the deficient protein. The pathogenic gene mutation was identified by PCR amplification of ge-nomic DNA with primers targeting the flanking introns, followed by direct automated sequencing. Results In the family, the affected individuals were homozygous for a novel 4-bp deletion in COL17A1, 3897delATCT, which resulted in a downstream premature termination codon. Conclusions 3897delATCT of COL17A1 is the pathogenic gene mutation in the patients and probably results in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and abrogation of type XⅦ collagen synthesis, as documented in the literature.
