Objective To understand the status and administration of Young Scholar Scientific Research Program at China CDC,to analyze the program functioning and raised problems,as well as further discuss administrative strategies internally at institutional level.Methods To review and analyze the archived documents and data materials of Young Scholar Scientific Research Program at China CDC.Results Department of Science and Technology is responsible for the daily management of Young Scholar Scientific Program.The research fields of these projects mainly focused on public health and infectious disease.75 two-year period projects are funded and 55 have been completed so far.Accumulated subsidy amount is up to 6.68 million RMB.146 papers have been published,among which 57 English papers have been published (47 were in SCI journals).And 5 patents were granted.Conclusions The establishment of the Young Scholar Scientific Program has empowered the young fellows for conducting scientific research independently.On the other hand,this program also strengthened technical support for disease prevention and control.It is proposed to go on strengthen the scientific management and further establishing academic communication plat form for young fellows.

?Advances in genome-wide analysis have revealed that up to 90%of the human genome is transcribed.However, only approximately 1% of RNA transcripts encode proteins, and the remaining transcripts are noncoding RNAs.Noncoding RNAs can be roughly divided into small noncoding RNAs (<200nt ) and long noncoding RNAs ( LncRNAs, >200nt ). Small noncoding RNAs include microRNAs, transfer RNAs and small nucleolar RNAs, whereas the long noncoding RNAs comprise ribosomal RNA, natural antisense transcripts, etc. Although the biosynthesis and biological activities of microRNAs are well studied through bioinformatics and active biological molecules analysis, the understanding of LncRNAs on these aspects is still limited.LncRNAs play multiple roles in regulating gene transcription and translation, and epigenetics.Aberrant LncRNAs expression can occur in various pathological processes and significantly related to the pathogenesis or poor prognosis of ophthalmological diseases. In this review, we will focus on the characteristics and regulatory functions of LncRNAs that are commonly associated with ophthalmological diseases.

Objective To explore the effects of chronic fluorosis on neurons in the cerebral cortex of rats,and to provide some morphological evidence of damage in the central nervous system induced by chronic fluorosis.Methods Male Wistar rats 40 days after birth were fed with high fluoride contented water(100 mg/L)for inducing chronic fluorosis.Immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization were used to detect c-fos and Caspase 8 at cerebral cortical neurons respectively.Results c-fos positive cells rate and gray scale in the cerebral cortex of chronic fluorosis were 35.8%and 0.2756±0.0241,respectively,and that of control group were 32.1%and 0.2774±0.0331with statistical difference(χ2=0.305,t=0.826,P＞0.05).Caspase 8 positive cells rates of fluorosis group and control group were 18.7%and 14.1%,respectively,the difference being statistically significant(χ2=0.419,P＞0.05).The gray scale of fluorosis group and control group were 0.3874±0.0329 and 0.3884±0.0323,respectively,the difference being statistically significant(t=0.641,P＞0.05).Conclusion Chronic fluorosis had no significant influence on apoptosis of cerebral cortical neurons.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Fructus psoraleae on the differentiation of cultured osteoblast MC3T3-E1 cell isolated from neonatal mouse's calvarium.

METHODF. psoraleae preparation was extracted with distilled water. A mouse osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1 was used as a cell model for screening potency. Cultured MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts were divided into 4 groups: control and F. psoraleae extract 0.02, 0.2, 2 (crude drug) g x L(-1), change the medium and extract every 3 days. The content of ALP and type I collagen were measured. The expression of ALP, type I collagen and osteocalcin mRNA in MC3T3-E1 cell was detected by real-time PCR.

RESULTThe activity of ALP was stimulated by extract of F. psoralea at doses 0.2 g x L(-1), and the content of type I collagen was encouraged at doses 0.2 g x L(-1) . The extract of F. psoralea enhanced the expression of ALP, type I collagen and osteocalcin mRNA in MC3T3-E1 cell. The expression of ALP mRNA was enhanced by extract of F. psoralea at doses 0.2 g x L(-1) for 7-14 d, and the expression of type I collagen and osteocalcin mRNA was enhanced at doses 0.2 g x L(-1) for 14-21 days.

CONCLUSIONF. psoralea can stimulate the differentiation of osteoblasts in vitro. It will offer a reference for the active mechanism research.

Objective To investigate the expression of astrocyte elevated gene -1( AEG-1) and matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP-9)in colorectal tissues and evaluate its correlation with clinical pathologic factors of colorectal cancer.Methods AEG-1 and MMP-9 expression in normal colorectal mucous (n=45),low-grade adenoma(n=31),high-grade adenoma(n=15)and colorectal carcinoma(n=146)were examined by immuno-histochemistry .Statistical analyses were applied to test the significance of its expression .Results AEG-1 ex-pression levels were gradually elevated in normal tissues ,low-grade adenoma ,high-grade adenoma and colorec-tal carcinoma respectively .Furthermore ,there was a similar trend for MMP -9from normal mucous to adenoma and carcinoma .Statistical analysis revealed that AEG -1 expression was markedly correlated with the UICC stage,T classification,N classification,M classification,and histological differentiation in the colorectal cancer pa-tients,but not with age,gender,tumor location and tumor size.In addition,AEG-1 expression was positively cor-related with the MMP-9 expression in colorectal cancer .Besides,those patients with high AEG-1 and MMP-9 levels had shorter survival time ( P<0 .05 ) .Conclusion AEG-1 may be involved in carcinogenesis and pro-gression of colorectal carcinoma and can be a novel prognostic biomarker in patients with colorectal carcinoma .

Aim ToexploretheeffectsofnewdrugT-006 on improving learning and memory abilities in scopolamine-induced dementia mice and its possible mechanism.Methods 72maleKunmingmicewere randomly divided into six groups:normal control group,model group,donepezil treatment group,T -006 treatment group with different doses(1,3 and 10 mg·kg-1 ).All mice were treated by intragastric ad-ministration for 14 consecutive days. Learning and memory abilities were tested by a five-day Morris water maze trial from the 1 1 th day.the first 4 days of the five-day Morris water maze,the navigation test was performed,the last day of Morris water maze is the spatial probe test.During the navigation test, mice were intraperitoneally given 2 mg · kg-1 scopolamine 20 minutes before entering the water,while normal control group mice administrated with sterile saline in-stead.Mice were not given T-006 nor scopolamine in spatial probe test.After Morris water maze,all mice were sacrificed for hippocampus and cortex.The activi-ties of AchE and SOD and the levels of GSH and MDA in hippocampus and cortex were measured after tissue harvesting.Results Comparedwithmodelgroup,T-006 could obviously improve learning and memory abil-ities in scopolamine-induced mice, significantly in-crease the levels of SOD and GSH and decrease the levelsofMDAandAchE.Conclusion T-006can significantly improve cognitive abilities in scopolamine-induced dementia mice,and its relevant mechanism may be closely related to its antioxidative effect and the ability to decrease AchE level.
