3T3-L1 adipocytes were cultured and differentiated into mature adipocytes in vitro. The adipocytes were intervened by ACAT inhibitor( 2 μg/ml) and ox-LDL with various concentrations (0,25,50,75,and 100 μg/ml)for 48 h,ACAT inhibitor( 2 μg/ml) and ox-LDL( 50 μg/ml) at the 0,6,18,36,and 48 h,or ACAT inhibitor( 2 μg/ml),ox-LDL( 50 μg/ml),and TUDCA with various concentrations(0,100,200,and 400 μ mol/L)for 48 h,respectively.The levels of visfatin in supernatant were examined by ELISA and the expressions of protein GRP78 and CHOP in adipocytes were detected by Western blot.After the adipocytes were treated with ACAT inhibitor and ox-LDL at different concentrations for 48 h,the cholesterol concentration and the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP protein in adipocytes and the visfatin levels in the supernatant fluid were increased with the increase of the ox-LDL concentration.The differences had statistical significance in the experimental groups compared with blank control group( all P<0.05 ).After the intervention with ACAT inhibitor and ox-LDL for different durations,the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP protein in adipocytes and the visfatin levels in the supernatant fluid were up-regulated in a timedependent manner.The differences between experimental groups and blank control had statistical significance( all P<0.05 ).After the intervention with ACAT inhibitor,ox-LDL,and different concentrations of TUDCA for 48 hours,the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP protein in adipocytes and visfatin levels in the supernatant fluid were down-regulated in a dose-dependent manner and as compared with blank control group the difference were statistically significant( all P< 0.05 ).The increase of cholesterol load in adipocyte may promote the visfatin secretion,denoting that the mechanism might be due to the enhancement of endoplasmic reticulum stress in aidpocytes.

Objective To discuss the influence of psychological education on the resourcefulness of perioperative breast cancer patients. Methods Two hundred breast cancer patients from a first-class hospital in Fujian province were randomly assigned to the control group, in which routine care was done, and an intervention group, in which psychological education curriculum was employed at three stages on the basis of routine care. The resourcefulness scale was used in both two groups before and after the intervention to evaluate the score of individual and social resourcefulness and the total score of resourcefulness in these two groups. Results As to the control group, the score on individual resourcefulness and the total score on resourcefulness before and after the intervention had no significant differences (P>0.05), but the difference in the social resourcefulness scores before and after the intervention was statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences in the scores on the individual resourcefulness, social resourcefulness and the total score on resourcefulness in the intervention group before and after the intervention were all statistically different (P<0.001). What′s more, the scores of individual resourcefulness, social resourcefulness and the total score of resourcefulness between these two groups after the intervention were statistically different (P<0.001) as well. The scores of the intervention group were significantly higher than those of the control one. Conclusion The psychological education can significantly improve the resourcefulness level of perioperative breast cancer patients, which can help individuals to manage stress effectively.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of urinary 8-oxoguanosine(8-oxoGsn)with muscle mass, muscle strength, advanced glycation end products(AGEs), trace elements, heavy metals and other health-related indictors in different age groups of the Beijing area.Methods:A cross-sectional research was conducted.Healthy adults aged 25 to 93 years who sought health examination in the Health Examination Center of Beijing Hospital were recruited.Participants were divided into the young and middle-aged group and the elderly group with age 60 as the cutoff.Urinary 8-oxoGsn levels were detected by mass spectrometry and adjusted using urine creatinine values.Body composition was measured by multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA). Grip strength, 6-meter walking speed and 5-times sit to stand test were conducted by experienced team members.Skin autofluorescence was used to detect skin AGEs.A portable optical scanner was used to detect heavy metals and trace elements using reference points of the palm.Levels of fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, high-density lipoprotein and other common blood biochemical indicators were measured.Results:A total of 106 subjects were enrolled, including 68 in the young and middle-aged group and 38 in the elderly group.The proportion of patients with hypertension(14 ases or 36.8% vs.7 ases or 10.3%), systolic blood pressure[130(120, 140) vs.120(110, 126)mmHg], fasting blood glucose[5.7(5.2, 5.9)mmol/L vs.5.2(4.9, 5.5)mmol/L], glycosylated hemoglobin[6.0(5.7, 6.2)% vs.5.7(5.4, 5.9)%], 8-oxoGsn/Cre[1.9(1.4, 2.6) vs.1.3(1.0, 1.6)], AGEs(2.44±0.46 vs.2.01±0.29), 5-times sit to stand test scores[7.8(6.9, 9.8)s vs.6.0(5.0, 6.8)s], magnesium(31.4±7.2 vs.27.7±6.4), mercury(0.013±0.003 vs.0.008±0.003)and silver[0.011(0.010, 0.012) vs.0.010(0.009, 0.011)]were higher in the elderly group than in the young and middle-aged group, while grip strength[28.0(22.0, 35.1)kg vs.36.6(28.5, 49.1)kg], fat-free mass[44.9(37.5, 51.1)kg vs.53.3(42.4, 58.5)kg], trunk muscle mass[21.0(17.5, 23.9)kg vs.25(19.8, 27.4)kg], appendicular skeletal muscle mass[20.9(17.6, 23.9)kg vs.24.9(19.8, 27.3)kg], calcium[273.3(219.1, 480.0) vs.457.8(428.5, 489.1)], cobalt[0.029(0.027, 0.031) vs.0.031(0.028, 0.034)], selenium[1.44(0.93, 1.71) vs.1.61(1.53, 1.68)]and nickel[3.5(3.3, 4.0)*10 -3vs.3.8(3.6, 4.1)*10 -3]were lower in the elderly group than in the young and middle-aged group( P<0.05). Urinary 8-oxoGsn/Cre levels were positively correlated with age, time of 5-times sit to stand test, AGEs, fasting blood glucose, mercury and aluminum( rs=0.443, 0.292, 0.357, 0.205, 0.316 and 0.214, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with trunk muscle mass, appendicular skeletal muscle mass, fat-free mass, grip strength, silicon and manganese( rs=-0.334, -0.333, -0.332, -0.366, -0.246 and -0.234, P<0.05), with statistical significance. Conclusions:Increased urinary 8-oxoGsn/Cre levels are correlated with decreased muscle mass, poor physical function, accumulation of AGEs, decreased trace element levels and increased heavy metal levels.Therefore, 8-oxoGsn has the potential to be a broadly representative and sensitive indicator for health assessment.
