Objective To study the effect of Konjac polysaccharide (KP) on motilin (MOT) and somatostatin (SS) of gastrointestinal tissue in mice. Methods The mice were divided into four groups randomly. Normal control group (NC) was given normal feed. High, middle, low dose KP treated groups (KPH,KPM,KPL)were given KP 0.8, 0.4, 0.2g per 100g normal feed. The level of motilin and somatostatin of gastrointestinal. tissue was determined simultaneously by radioimmunassay, and blood glucose was determined by blood glucose analyzer after 20 d. Body weight, adipose tissue and wet weight of stool were also examined. Results The level of motilin of stools of KPH group was 8.26?0.53ng/g ,which increased compared with NC group.Somatostatin was 207.32?21.89 ng/g ,which decreased compared with NC group. The differences between two groups were significant (P

BACKGROUND:Corneal stromal fibroblasts have been shown to express interleukin-8 in the stimulation of lipopolysaccharide. Different reactions of fibroblasts to lipoprotein or other inflammatory mediators may constitute different characteristics of different tissues in the inflammatory response. OBJECTIVE:To observe the inhibitory effect of IKK-2 receptor blocker TPCA-1 on human corneal stromal fibroblasts to secrete inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and cel adhesion molecules under the stimulation of lipopolysaccharide and its signal transduction pathway, to compare with dexamethasone, and to explore alternative or synergistic effects after their combination. METHODS:This study measured the secretion of interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 from cultured human corneal stromal fibroblasts under the action of basic state and lipopolysaccharide, and their changes after the intervention with IKK-2 receptor blocker TPCA-1 and dexamethasone. We also detected expression level of intercelular adhesion molecule-1 and interleukin-6 in cel surface, and verified the changes in expression levels of intercelular adhesion molecule-1, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 from mRNA level, as wel as examined the expression of nuclear factor kappa B under above conditions.

Objective To know the primary effect of nutrition intervention in farmers. Methods The questionnaires were used to do baseline and evaluation survey. The intervention ways were used in trial group, including holding lectures, posting posters, sending out healthy material, quizzes with prizes, recommending salts low in sodium to each family, training to make healthy food by the chef; but there were no measures in control group. Results There were statistical significance in healthy awareness of nutrition, exercises and chronic diseases between two groups after intervention; However, the average intake amounts of vegetables did not reach the recommendation of diet guidelines; After intervention, the intake frequency of vegetables and fruits had statistical significance between before and after intervention in trial group, and also had statistical significance in two groups. Conclusion The awareness of healthy knowledge and attitudes has been obvious improvement, but the diets and life styles of farmers have no obvious change. The diet structure and behavior of farmers have been increasingly rational but not enough. The farmers have started to increase the intake times of vegetables and fruits and built up the conception of eating more vegetables and fruits.

Mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)have a unique role in immune regulation and focus to T-cells.In the mixed lymphocyte reactions,MSCs inhibit T-cells proliferation by cycle arrest,but they do not increase T-cell apoptosis and the suppress T-cell activation.In addition,MSCs can reduce CD8~+T cells and Thl cells,and simultaneously increase Th2 cells in the reaction system to suppress the inflammatory response,which may play a therapeutic effect on the T-cells mediated autoimmune diseases.

TLR4-MD-2 complex plays a key role in LPS recognition and its signal transduction. These steps are the vital elements of the host's defensive reaction. Studying the functional domain of TLR4 and MD-2 is very important to further understand the mechanism of LPS signal transduction. It was studied the interaction domain of TLR4 and MD-2 in living cells based on gene mutation, gene transfection and fluorescence resonance energy tramsfer(FRET) which is considered as one of the best methods used for intracellular protein-protein interaction study. CY-15P which was fused by CFP and YFP through 15 neutral amino acids was used as positive control, while co-expressed CFP and YFP proteins were used as negative control. The results showed that the ability of TLR4 binding to MD-2 decreased dramatically after the deletion of Glu~(24) ～ Met~(41) in N terminal of TLR4. Aggregation of TLR4 to LPS stimulation was observed, however, TLR4 without the Glu~(24)～ Met~(41) mutation did not aggregate. All these results indicated that TLR4 Glu~(24)～ Met~(41) might be the interaction domain of TLR4 binding to MD-2 and participate in the aggregation effect of TLR4 upon LPS stimulation.
