In the present study, we examined the regulation of the expression and function of AB CA1 by modified LDL (ox-LDL) in vitro. After incubation with apoA-Ⅰ for 24 h, RAW264.7 cells effluxed 37.65 % cholesterol loaded by acetyl LDL (ac-LDL), and 9.78 % cholesterol in ox-LDL group. The level of ABCA1 Mrna increased about three times either when cells were incubated with 100 μg/Ml ac-LDL or with 100μg/Ml ox-LDL. However, the level of ABCA1 protein rose by 1.57 times in ac-LDL group and 1.26 times in ox-LDL group. These results demonstrated that ox-LDL had different effect on the expression and function of ABCA1, ox-LDL might decrease the cholesterol efflux mediated by ABCA1 through other unknown mechanisms.

Summary: To explore the functions of very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDL-R) subtype II in lipoprotein metabolism and foam cells formation, the recombinant plasmid with the two subtypes cDNA was constructed respectively, the ldl-A7 cell lines were transfected and two cell lines expressing VLDL-R were obtained: one stably expressing the VLDLR with the O-linked sugar region (type I VLDLR) and the other without the O-linked sugar region (type II VLDLR). In the study on binding of VLDLR to their nuclein labeled natural ligands (VLDL and β-VLDL), it was found that surface binding of 125I-VLDL or 125I-β-VLDL of ldl-A7 cells transfected with type I VLDLR recombinant (ldl-A7-VRI) was more higher than that of ldl-A7 cells transfected with type II VLDLR recombinant (ldl-A7-VRII). After being incubated with VLDL for different time, the contents of triglyceride and total cholesterol in cells were mensurated, and the formation of foam cells and accumulation of lipid in cells was observed by oil-red O staining. The results showed that the contents of triglyceride and total cholesterol in ldl-A7-VR I were much higher than those in ldl-A7-VR II, and ldl-A7-VR I could transform into foam cells notably. It was suggested that type I VLDLR binds with relative higher affinity to VLDL and β-VLDL, and internalizes much more lipoprotein into cells. As a result, we can conclude that type I VLDLR plays a more important role in lipoprotein metabolism and foam cells formation than type II VLDLR.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of the decline of intrinsic capacity(IC)and to explore the effect of intrinsic capacity decline on falls and hospital readmission during 1 year follow-up.Methods:A total of 311 elderly patients treated in Geriatrics Department of Zhejiang Hospital were enrolled.General information and intrinsic ability data, including cognitive(simple mental state inventory), motor(Tinetti-Balance Scale and 4 m test), vitality(grip strength and mini-nutrition assessment table), perception(self-rated vision or hearing impairment), and psychosocial(Geriatric depression scale), were collected at admission.Falls and hospital readmission within 1 year after discharge were followed up.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship of baseline intrinsic ability at admission with falls and hospital readmission during 1-year follow-up.Results:Of 311 elderly hospitalized patients, 282(90.7%)had intrinsic capacity decline.During 1 year follow-up, 38 elderly patients(12.2%)had falls and 69 elderly patients(22.2%)were hospital readmitted.After adjusting for confounding factors such as age, gender, education level, comorbidities, multiple medications, fear of falling, and assistive tool use and so on, Logistic regression analysis showed that decreased balance ability was a risk factor for falls within 1 year in elderly patients( OR=3.515, 95% CI: 1.089-11.346, P=0.036), and slow walking speed was a risk factor for one-year hospital readmission( OR=2.426, 95% CI: 1.181-4.983, P=0.016). Conclusions:Decreased motor capacity is closely associated with falls and hospital readmission within 1 year in older patients.Great attention should be paid to the assessment and intervention of motor ability in elderly patients.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation combined with moxibustion in treating ovulation disorder in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods Using the prospective randomized controlled study design, a total of 60 patients who had be diagnosed with PCOS in reproductive medicine department of Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital from September 2015 to September 2016 were selected and randomly divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30) by random number table method. Both groups were treated with clomiphene on the 5th day of menstruation, 50 mg per day for 5 days. Patients in the control group was treated with routine care, while,on the basis of that, the observation group received the application of non-invasive electro-acupuncture combined with moxibustion. Body mass index(BMI), waist hip ratio(WHR), ovulation rates and pregnancy rates were compared between the two groups three months after the treatment. Results After treatment, the body weight and BMI of the treatment group decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the WHR of the treatment group was significantly lower than that before treatment as well (P<0.05). The ovulation rate of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group after the treatment (P<0.05). The pregnancy cases of the treatment group were higher than that of the control group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Transcutaneous electrical acupuncture combined with moxibustion can effectively improve the ovulation rate of PCOS patients with ovulation disorder, and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the detection rate of motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR)and explore the possible risk factors.Methods A total of 429 elderly patients from geriatric department of Zhejiang Hospital from October 2014 to September 2018 were recruited in the crosssectional study.General information and functional assessment including fall history,self-reported visual impairment and hearing impairment,depressive symptom,cognitive function and gait speed were collected.Patients with MCR were screened out according to the MCR diagnostic criteria.Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the associated risk factors.Results Seventeen patients(4.0%)met the MCR diagnostic criteria.The proportions of obesity,polypharmacy,cerebral vascular diseases,self-reported hearing impairment,depressive symptoms and slow gait were higher in MCR patients than in non-MCR patients(P<0.05).Compared with non-MCR patients,MCR patients had lower mini mental state examination (MMSE) scores (P < 0.01).After adjusting for associated confounding factors,multiple logistic regression analysis showed obesity (OR =3.74,95 % CI:1.14-12.23,P < 0.05) and depressive symptoms (OR =5.79,95% CI:1.76-19.06,P < 0.01) were risk factors for MCR.Conclusions MCR is not uncommon in elderly patients.Obesity and depressive symptoms are closely associated with an increased risk of MCR.

The role of very low density lipoprotein receptor (LVLDR) in the process of foam cell formation was investigated. After the primary cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages were incubated with VLDL, beta-VLDL or low density lipoprotein (LDL), respectively for 24 h and 48 h, foam cells formation was identified by oil red O staining and cellular contents of triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) were determined. The mRNA levels of LDLR, LDLR related protein (ILRP) and VLDLR were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The results demonstrated that VLDL, beta-VLDL and LDL could increase the contents of TG and TC in macrophages. Cells treated with VLDL or beta-VLDL showed markedly increased expression of VLDLR and decreased expression of LDLR, whereas LRP was up-regulated slightly. For identifying the effect of VLDL receptor on cellular lipid accumulation, ldl-A7-VR cells, which expresses VLDLR and trace amount of LRP without functional LDLR, was used to incubate with lipoproteins for further examination. The results elucidated that the uptake of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein mediated by VLDLR plays an important role in accumulation of lipid and the formation of foam cells.
