Objective To observe the effects of diacetyldianhydrogalactito (DADAG) on the proliferation and apopotosis in lung cancer cell NCI-H460.Methods MTT assay was performed to determine the half inhibitory concentration of DADAG(2.88,5.75,11.50,23.00 and 46.00 μg/mL)for the NCI-H460 cells and colony formation assay was used to detect the ability of cell proliferation; through AO/EB staining method, morphological changes of apoptotic cell under fluorescent microscope were observed;cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry to test the effects of DADAG on NCI-H460;RT-PCR was used to detect the effect of DADAG on Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA expres-sion levels within the cell. Results Compared with that in blank control group, cell proliferation was inhibited in the group treated with DADAG; the number of colony formation decreased and AO/EB staining results showed that cell apoptosis was characterized by typical morphological changes such as swelling, shrinking and fragmentation. Flow cytometry detection results showed that apoptosis rate was increased in the group treated with DADAG(all P<0.05).RT-PCR results indicated that the expression of pro-apoptosis gene Bax was up-regulated,while expression of anti-apoptosis gene Bcl-2 down-regulated. Conclusions DADAG exhibits the inhibitory activity in lung cancer cell NCI-H460 and can induce the apoptosis.The potential mechanism maybe associated with up-regulating the ex-pression of Bax but down-regulating the expression of Bcl-2.

Objective Pertussis cases have increased markedly since 2018 in Guangxi.The aim of this study was to evaluate antibody levels and the infection status of pertussis in the resident population. Method A total of 10,215 serum samples from residents were collected from August-November 2018 and tested for anti-pertussis IgG and toxin IgG using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results Of the collected samples,1,833(17.94%)tested positive for anti-pertussis IgG,with the median concentration of 16.06 IU/mL.Antibody level<10 IU/mL accounted for more than 60%in children under 4 years of age,but declined with age,whereas the percentages of the other three levels(10-40,40-50,and≥50 IU/mL)increased almost with age(P<0.001).Moreover,7,924 samples were selected for anti-pertussis toxin IgG,of which 653(8.24%)tested positive(≥40 IU/mL)with the median concentration of 5.89 IU/mL,and 204 participants(2.56%)had recent pertussis infection(≥100 IU/mL).Among the different age groups,the highest rates of positivity and recent infection were observed at 11-20 years of age,the lowest positivity rate at 5 years of age,and the lowest recent infection rate at 4 years of age(P<0.001,P=0.005,respectively). Conclusion The survey results showed that all age groups in Guangxi lacked immunity against pertussis,which was one of the main factors contributing to the resurgence of pertussis in 2018.In addition,the prevalence of pertussis is relatively high in Guangxi,and its incidence is seriously underestimated,especially in adolescents and adults.

Aging and age-related ailments have emerged as critical challenges and great burdens within the global contemporary society.Addressing these concerns is an imperative task,with the aims of postponing the aging process and finding effective treatments for age-related degenerative diseases.Recent investigations have highlighted the significant roles of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+)in the realm of anti-aging.It has been empirically evidenced that supplementation with nicotinamide mononucleotide(NMN)can elevate NAD+levels in the body,thereby ameliorating certain age-related degenerative diseases.The principal anti-aging mechanisms of NMN essentially lie in its impact on cellular energy metabolism,inhibition of cell apoptosis,modulation of immune function,and preservation of genomic stability,which collectively contribute to the deferral of the aging process.This paper critically reviews and evaluates existing research on the anti-aging mechanisms of NMN,elucidates the inherent limitations of current research,and proposes novel avenues for anti-aging investigations.

Objective:To investigate the factors affecting the application of systemic glucocorticoids in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) with carbon dioxide (CO 2) retention, and to guide the formulation of a strategy to reduce systemic glucocorticoid exposure. Methods:The AECOPD patients with CO 2 retention admitted to the Ningde Municipal Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2017 to December 2019 were enrolled. The general information, past history, times of acute exacerbations within 1 year, pneumonia on admission, causes of COPD, heart failure, blood gas analysis, eosinophil count (EOS), albumin (Alb) and apolipoprotein E (ApoE) levels, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) level, inhaled glucocorticoid and non-invasive mechanical ventilation treatment at acute exacerbation were collected. The patients were divided into recommended dosage group (exposure levels in the recommended dosage range, cumulative prednisone dosage ≤ 200 mg) and exceeded group (exposure levels exceeded the recommended dose, cumulative prednisone dosage > 200 mg) according to cumulative systemic glucocorticoid exposure dosage of the patients during hospitalization. The clinical data of patients between the two groups were compared, and possible factors with P < 0.1 in univariate analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis to screen the related factors of systemic glucocorticoid exposure level in AECOPD patients with CO 2 retention. Results:According to the order of hospitalization, 151 AECOPD patients with CO 2 retention were enrolled, 8 patients were excluded, and 143 patients were enrolled in the analysis. Of the 143 patients, 68 received the recommended dose of systemic glucocorticoid, and 75 received excessive systemic glucocorticoid. Age, percentage of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1%) at stable phase, frequency of acute exacerbation within 1 year, heart failure ratio, oxygen index (PaO 2/FiO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), serum EOS and ApoE levels at admission, the ratio of aerosolized inhaled glucocorticoids and non-invasive mechanical ventilation showed statistical differences between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that related factors affecting systemic glucocorticoid exposure levels of AECOPD patients with CO 2 retention were FEV1% at stable phase [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.957, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.921-0.994, P = 0.023], acute exacerbation frequency within 1 year ( OR = 1.530, 95% CI was 1.121-2.088, P = 0.007), heart failure ( OR = 3.022, 95% CI was 1.263-7.231, P = 0.013), PaCO 2 ( OR = 1.062, 95% CI was 1.010-1.115, P = 0.018) and EOS at admission ( OR = 0.103, 95% CI was 0.016-0.684, P = 0.019), aerosolized inhaled glucocorticoids ( OR = 0.337, 95% CI was 0.145-0.783, P = 0.011) and non-invasive mechanical ventilation at acute exacerbation ( OR = 0.422, 95% CI was 0.188-0.948, P = 0.037), of which high FEV1% at stable phase, high EOS at admission, aerosolized inhaled glucocorticoid and non-invasive mechanical ventilation at acute exacerbation were protective factors, while high frequency of acute exacerbation within 1 year, heart failure and high PaCO 2 were risk factors. Conclusions:For AECOPD patients with CO 2 retention, high FEV1% at stable phase, high EOS level at admission, aerosolized inhaled glucocorticoid and non-invasive mechanical ventilation at acute exacerbation can reduce systemic glucocorticoid exposure. In addition, high frequency of acute exacerbation within 1 year, heart failure, and high PaCO 2 can increase systemic glucocorticoid exposure.
