To explore the effect of high glucose on the NF-κB/IκB signal pathway in cultured rat glomerular mesangial cells. The results showed that high glucose increased the degradation of IκB-α and the translocation to nucleus of NF-κB. These changes could be reverted mostly by MG132, a proteasome inhibitor. It suggests that the activation of the NF-κB signal pathway by high glucose concentration may probably be via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Objective To analyze the treatment outcome and related influencing factors of Tibet- an nationality new smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Qinghai Province,so as to provide evidence for tuberculosis control and treatment among Tibetan population. Methods Statistical analysis was conducted on 5 564 Tibetan nationality new smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Qinghai province who were reported in the China Tuberculosis Information Management System and approved to receive treatment from 2008 to 2017. The main influencing factors were detected by unconditional Logistic regression model analysis,dependent variable was successful treatment or not,independent variables were other factors related to the treatment outcome. Results The treatment success rate of Tibetan nationality new smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis cases was 87. 1% ( 4 848 /5 564) ,and the adverse outcome rate was 12. 9% ( 716 /5 564) . Unconditional Logistic regression model analysis indicated that non-full- course supervision management,living in agricultural and pastoral area,having severe disease,floating population,and age older than 60 years were risk factors of adverse outcome. The odds ratio( OR) 95% confidence interval( CI) of the above risk factors were 13. 044( 10. 671-15. 944) ,2. 305( 1. 703-3. 119) ,
2. 090( 1. 346-3. 243) ,1. 967( 1. 443-2. 682) ,and 1. 909( 1. 410-2. 586) . Clinical consultation,farmers and herdsmen were protective factors. The OR( 95% CI) were 0. 451( 0. 375-0. 543) ,and 0. 786( 0. 627- 0. 985) . Conclusions Treatment success rate of Tibetan nationality new smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis cases was low. Therefore,the directly observed treatment short-course ( DOTS) strategy should be strictly implemented and the full-course supervision management should be strengthened to improve the treatment success rate. More attention should be paid to the elderly,severe,floating,agricultural and pastoral populations among the Tibetan population.

The purpose of this study was to detect the minimal residual disease (MRD) in peripheral blood of newly diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) on day 8 of induction chemotherapy and analyze the correlation between day 8 MRD (D8RD) and therapeutic effectiveness. 29 adult patients (13 males and 16 females, aged 16 - 75 years, median 41 years) with AML diagnosed and treated in West China Hospital from September 2009 to June 2010 were analyzed and followed up in the study. The leukemia-associated aberrant immunophenotype (LAIP) of all the patients were detected by multiparameter flow cytometry (FCM) before therapy. The level of MRD in the peripheral blood at day 8 of induction chemotherapy was detected by FCM based on the LAIP. The overall survival curve was drawn by calculation using Kaplan-Meier method using, and the comparison between different groups was carried out by Log-rank test. The results indicated that after first course therapy, the levels of peripheral D8RD in 7 out of 29 AML cases were lower than 0.01% (negative group), and that in another 22 cases were higher than 0.01% (0.08% - 55%, positive group). The sex, age, WBC, LDH, percentage of bone marrow blasts at diagnosis in these groups were not statistically different. 6 cases achieved CR (86%) in D8RD negative group, and also 6 cases achieved CR (27%) in D8RD positive group, CR rate in D8RD negative group was higher than in D8RD positive group (86% vs 27%, P < 0.05). The median follow-up of 29 cases lasted for 15 months; the 1-year overall survival rate of D8RD negative and D8RD positive groups was 100% and 39.4%, respectively (P < 0.01). It is concluded that MRD level in peripheral blood at day 8 of induction chemotherapy is an early index to predict clinical efficacy of induction therapy in AML.
