Purpose To investigate the role of SOCS3 on diabetic renal injury. Methods Male CD-1 mice were randomly divided into four groups:control group, diabetic group, empty plasmid vector transfection group and SOCS3 plasmid transfection group. The diabet-ic mice were induced by intraperitoneal injection of STZ at a dose of 150 mg/kg body weight. The mice of transfection group were re-ceived an injection of SOCS3 plasmid or empty vector at every 7 days thereafter. Specimens were collected at 12 week after STZ injec-tion. The morphological changes of tubular epithelial cells were observed by transmission electron microscope. RT-PCR and immuno-histochemistry were used to determine the mRNA and protein expression of CK18 and α-SMA. Western blotting analysis was used to determine the protein expression of SOCS3, p-STAT3, CK18 and α-SMA. Results SOCS3 overexpression in kidney down-regulated the levels of p-STAT3 andα-SMA but up-regulated the expression of CK18. Conclusion Overexpression of SOCS3 can ameliorate the tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation of diabetic mice via inhibiting the phosphorylation of STAT3.

Objective To explore the protective effect of aucubin on the photoageing of the skin that induced by ultraviolet (UVB) radiation. Methods Human skin fibroblasts were divided into normal group, model group and high, medium and low dose groups of apocynin by random method. Except the normal group, the other groups of cells were subjected to UVB radiation with a radiation wavelength of 311 nm, irradiation intensity of 9.00 mw/cm2, radiation time of 2.8 s, radiation dose of 25 mJ/cm2. The cells in the high, medium and low doses of aglycone were cultured for 24 h at an equal volume of 400, 200, 100 μg/ml, and then subjected to UVB irradiation, and then cultured for 24 h. The normal group and the model group were cultured for 48 h in a common medium. The apoptosis rate of each group was detected by flow cytometry. The levels of IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in each group were detected by ELISA. The expressions of Bax and Bcl-2 mRNA in each group were detected by RT-PCR. Results Compared with the model group, the apoptosis rate (4.84% ± 0.24%, 12.32% ± 0.67% vs. 35.63% ± 2.77%) in the medium and high dose group significantly decreased (P<0.05), the content of IL-1 (21.14 ± 1.94 ng/ml, 16.17 ± 0.74 ng/ml vs. 22.55 ± 1.02 ng/ml), IL-6 (17.46 ± 0.93 ng/ml, 14.51 ± 0.79 ng/ml vs. 18.39 ± 2.05 ng/ml), TNF-α (44.21 ± 1.16 ng/ml, 35.94 ± 3.08 ng/ml vs. 45.67 ± 2.28 ng/ml) significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the expression of Bax mRNA (0.29 ± 0.05, 0.42 ± 0.05, 0.51 ± 0.04 vs. 0.59 ± 0.05) significantly decreased, and the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA (0.52 ± 0.04, 0.44 ± 0.03, 0.35 ± 0.03 vs. 0.26 ± 0.04) significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusions The aucubin has protective function to the damage of skin fibroblasts which is induced by UVB radiation, indicating the protective function of decreasing Bax mRNA expression, increasing Bcl-2 mRNA expression, reducing the expression of inflammatory factor IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, holding-up the cell apoptosis which is induced by UVB radiation, and inhibiting apoptosis of cell that caused by UVB radiation, playing an role of protective fibroblasts for delay of the photoageing.

Objective:
To evaluate the value of multi-detector CT (MDCT) upper airway imaging in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) and in determining the location of upper airway obstruction.
Methods :
MDCT was used to scan the upper airways of 85 clinically confirmed adult patients with different degrees of OSAHS (73 males and 12 females) in calm breathing phase and forced inhalation phase and 60 normal adults (50 males and 10 females) in calm breathing phase to obtain nasal cavity,nasopharynx,palatopharynx and oglosopharynx volumes.Parapharyngeal fat volume was measured in OSAHS patients and normal subjects.In addition,three groups of clinical data related to OSAHS patients were recorded,including sleep apnea hypopnea index (AHI) ,body mass index ( BMI) and lowest blood oxygen saturation ( LaSO2 ) .Finally,the measured data and clinical data of each group were statistically analyzed.
Results :
The volume of nasopharynx and palatopharynx in the calm breathing group was significantly smaller than that in the control group,with statistical significance.Palatopharyngeal volume forced inspiratory phase was significantly smaller than calm breathing phase in the experimental group.The parapharyngeal fat volume in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group.AHI was positively correlated with BMI and parapharyngeal fat volume.LaSO2 was negatively correlated with AHI and BMI,respectively.
Conclusion
MDCT upper airway imaging has good clinical application value in the diagnosis,treatment and postoperative evaluation of OSAHS disease due to the significant anatomical difference between OSAHS patients and normal subjects.
