Objective:To evaluate the role of nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group D, member 1/brain and muscle Arnt-like 1(Rev-erbα/Bmal1) signaling pathway in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in diabetic rats and its relationship with autophagy.Methods:SPF-grade adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 200-220 g, were used in this study.Type I diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin 60 mg/kg.The rats were continuously fed for 8 weeks after successful establishment of the model.Thirty rats with type 1 diabetes mellitus were divided into 3 groups by a random number table method: diabetic sham operation group (DS group, n=6), diabetic myocardial I/R group (DI/R group, n=12) and diabetic myocardial I/R plus Rev-erbα antagonist SR-8278 group (DI/R+ SR group, n=12). Eighteen non-diabetic rats were divided into 2 groups by a random number table method: non-diabetic sham operation group (NS group, n=6) and non-diabetic myocardial I/R group (NI/R group, n=12). The myocardial I/R model was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120-min reperfusion in anesthetized rats.SR-8278 2 mg/kg was intravenously injected via the femoral vein at 1 h before ischemia in group DI/R+ SR.Blood samples were collected from the carotid artery immediately after the end of reperfusion for determination of serum troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) levels (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Then the rats were sacrificed, and myocardial tissues were obtained for determination of myocardial infarct size (by TTC method), expression of Rev-erbα and Bmal1 mRNA (by real-time polymerase chain reaction) and expression of Rev-erbα, Bmal1, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain (LC3) Ⅱ and LC3Ⅰ (by Western blot) and for calculation of the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand the number of autophagosomes (with a transmission electron microscope). Results:Compared with group NS, the percentage of myocardial infarct size, serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB and LDH and the number of autophagosomes were significantly increased, the expression of Rev-erbα and its mRNA in myocardial tissues was up-regulated, the expression of Bmall and its mRNA was down-regulated, and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰwas increased in group NI/R, and serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB and LDH were increased, the number of autophagosomes was decreased, the expression of Rev-erbα and its mRNA in myocardial tissues was up-regulated, the expression of Bmall and its mRNA was down-regulated and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰwas decreased in group DS ( P<0.05). Compared with group NI/R, the percentage of myocardial infarct size and serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB and LDH were significantly increased, the number of autophagosomes was decreased, the expression of Rev-erbα and its mRNA in myocardial tissues was up-regulated, the expression of Bmall and its mRNA was down-regulated, and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰwas decreased in group DI/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group DS, the percentage of myocardial infarct size, serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB and LDH and the number of autophagosomes were were significantly increased, the expression of Rev-erbα and its mRNA in myocardial tissues was up-regulated, the expression of Bmall and its mRNA was down-regulated, and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰwas increased in group DI/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group DI/R, the percentage of myocardial infarct size, serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB and LDH and the number of autophagosomes were significantly decreased, the expression of Rev-erbα and its mRNA in myocardial tissues was down-regulated, the expression of Bmall and its mRNA was up-regulated, and the ratio of LC3 Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰwas increased in group DI/R+ SR ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Rev-erbα/BMAL1 signaling pathway is involved in the process of myocardial I/R injury by regulating cell autophagy in diabetic rats.

Objective To explore the feasibility of imaging and treatment of cervical cancer xenograft model using 131I mediated by hNIS gene transfection. Methods The cervical cancer xenograft models were established with Hela-NIS( +) cells and Hela cells, respectively. Five Hela-NIS( +) xenograft models and five Hela xenograft models were dynamically imaged at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 20 h postinjection of 131I(7.4 MBq). Five Hela-NIS( +) xenograft models were imaged at 0. 5,1,2,4,8,16, 20 and 25 h postinjection of 99TcmO4-(11.1 MBq). Twenty Hela-NIS( +) cervical cancer xenograft models were randomly divided into four groups: Three 131I treating groups and one control group. The therapeutic effects of 131I at threelevels (74,111,148 MBq) were investigated following intraperitoneal injection. Results Hela-NIS( +)human cervical cancer xenografts were established successfully in nude mice. The Hela-NIS( +) xenografts significantly accumulated radioactivity after intraperitoneal injection of 131I, and the radioactivity was persistently present until 20 h postinjection, but Hela xenografts had no radioactive accumulation. The T/B value of the Hela-NIS( +) xenografts reached 17.34 at 8 h postinjection. The imaging with 99TcmO4- showed that the radioactivity was persistently present in Hela-NIS( +) xenografts for almost 25 h. The Hela-NIS( +)xenografts shrinked after 131I treatment. The inhibition ratios of tumor growth in 111 MBq and 148 MBq groups were both significantly higher than that of 74 MBq group (t: 2.74-5.75, P <0.05). Conclusions Hela-NIS( +) cervical cancer xenografts in nude mice could persistently accumulate 131I and 99TcmO4- and could be treated successfully with 131 I. 131 I treatment mediated by hNIS gene transfection could be a promising cancer treatment method.

Objective To understand the pattern of and influencing factors on leisure time physical exercises among adults in Zhejiang. Method Totally 17 437 residents aged 18 years and over selected by stratified cluster random sampling in Zhejiang in 2010 were investigated. Result Overall 21.82%(95%CI:17.12%-27.38%) of adults took part in leisure time physical exercises in 2010. The proportion was higher in urban (29.04%,95%CI:23.46%-35.33%) than in rural (18.81%,95%CI:12.89%-26.61%) (χ2=222.06, P<0.05) areas, and also higher in females (22.91%,95%CI:17.66%-29.15%) than in males (20.56%,95%CI:16.39%-25.48%) (χ2=13.94, P<0.05). Adults aged 18-24 and 55-74 years were more likely to take apart in physical exercises (χ2=266.73, P<0.05), and the lowest proportion was found among farmers (5.33%,95%CI:3.99%-7.11%) (χ2=2 078.40, P<0.05). These proportions both increased along with education level and family income increase (χ2=444.87, P<0.05;χ2=332.20, P<0.05). Overall 83.04%and 90.08%of physical exercisers took part in exercises at least 3 times per week and 30 minutes per time, only 30.67% of those reached moderate or vigorous intensity, and overall 5.38% (95%CI: 3.85%-7.48%) of adults took part in regular leisure time physical exercises in 2010. Multiple logistic regression showed that age, education level, occupation and chronic disease history have influence on regular physical exercises. Conclusion The leisure time physical exercises level was generally low among adults in Zhejiang. Young and middle-aged adults with less education and low income especially farmers should be put on emphasis.

Objective To investigate the effect of tea polyphenols (TP) on renal damage in rats model induced by D-galactose. Methods Rats were injected with D-galactose (150 mg/kg?d),ip for 8 w,to induce renal damage. From the 3rd week,TP (150,75,37.5 mg/kg?d),aminoguanidine (150 mg/kg) and vitamin E (150 mg/kg) were administered with D-galactose for 6 w. After treatment,fasting blood glucose and 2 h blood glucose in oral glucose tolerance test were measured. The levels of HbA1C and fructosamine in serum,the activity of aldose reductase and content of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in plasma and in kidney tissues and the activity of SOD,GSH-Px,and the contents of MDA in kidney tissues were measured,and 24h urinary protein,blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (Cr) were detected. The apoptosis of renal cells were detected by flow cytometer. Results After treatment of D-galactose for 8 w,2h glucose level in oral glucose talerance test was increased significantly,the activity of aldose reductase and the content of AGES were increased significantly in blood. The levels of AGEs and MDA in renal tissues were also enhanced significantly. However,the activities of SOD and GSH-Px decreased. Additionally,the contents of 24h urine protein,BUN,Cr and the apoptotic rate of renal cells were increased significantly. High and middle dose of TP could can decrease the activity of aldose reductase in red blood cells,and inhibit the formation of glycation products in model rats induced by D-galactose. Also,TP could enhance the antioxidative activities and decrease the contents of AGEs and MDA in renal tissues. Mesnwhile,24h urine protein,BUN and Cr and the apoptotic rate of renal cells were increased significantly. Conclusion TP can inhibit glycation reaction induced by D-galactose and then protect renal from damage caused by glycation.

pH and temperature sensitive biodegradable block copolymers are some macromolecules connected by biodegradable materials and pH sensitive monomers according to a certain sequence, or biodegradable polyesters polymerized themselves. On the basis of pertinent documents, the development of pH and temperature sensitive biodegradable block copolymers was introduced, involving their mechanism of action and potential application. PH and temperature sensitive biodegradable block copolymers could control the drug release rate freely, avoiding burst effect. Besides, the biocompatibility of these biodegradable materials is also excellent. So the use of pH and temperature sensitive biodegradable block copolymers as biodegradable drug delivery devices has attracted considerable interest in the intelligent drug delivery system.

OBJECTIVETo observe therapeutic effect of negative-pressure treatment combined with tissue transplantation on complicated and refractory wounds after debridement.
METHODSAfter debridement, 20 patients with 20 complicated and refractory wounds hospitalized in our burn wards from May 2008 to June 2010 were randomly divided into treatment group (T, treated with negative-pressure from -19 kPa to -8 kPa, n = 10) and control group (C, covered with petrolatum gauze overlaid with saline gauze and dry gauze, n = 10) according to alternating method. On post treatment day (PTD) 4, 7, and 14, granulation tissues of wound surface in size of 4 mm × 3 mm × 2 mm were harvested for histopathological observation (including capillary growth, inflammatory cells, and collagen arrangement) with HE staining, and the numbers of vascular endothelial cells (VEC, with addition of rabbit anti-human coagulation factor VIII related antigen polyclonal antibody) and proliferation period cells (with addition of mouse anti-human Ki-67 monoclonal antibody) were counted by immunohistochemical staining. Data were processed with t test. Another 59 patients harboring 62 complicated and refractory wounds admitted to our burn ward at the same period were treated with the same mode of debridement, negative-pressure therapy, followed by timely skin or skin flap grafting.
RESULTS(1) Granulation tissue in T group grew more rapidly than that in C group. More capillaries and less inflammatory cells were observed in T group on PTD 7 as compared with those in C group. Collagen in T group on PTD 14 was more regular in arrangement than that in C group. The number of VEC per 400 times visual field in T group on PTD 4, 7, and 14 was respectively higher than that in C group (108.7 ± 11.2 vs. 31.0 ± 3.6, 138.0 ± 14.7 vs. 34.6 ± 4.5, 68.7 ± 6.9 vs. 55.1 ± 6.5, with t values from 4.62 to 30.28, P values all equal to 0.01). The number of proliferation period cell per 400 times visual field in T group on PTD 4 and 7 was respectively higher than that in C group (88.9 ± 5.9 vs. 16.6 ± 3.3, 128.1 ± 13.0 vs. 110.1 ± 8.9, with t value respectively 19.89, 3.33, P values all below 0.05). The number of proliferation period cell per 400 times visual field in T group on PTD 14 was obviously lower than that in C group (26.7 ± 5.1 vs. 59.7 ± 4.5, t = -12.43, P = 0.01). (2) After being treated with above therapeutic mode, necrotic tissues were removed completely and granulation tissue grew rapidly in 62 complicated and refractory wounds with high survival rate of skin grafts or skin flaps with good repair effect.
CONCLUSIONSNegative-pressure therapy can accelerate VEC formation and stimulate cell proliferation after debridement. Debridement, negative-pressure therapy, and timely skins/skin flaps grafting can effectively increase healing rate of complicated and refractory wounds.
