Objective To observe the effects of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) on apoptosis in primary cultured rat cerebellar granule cell and nerve globin mRNA expression.Methods Twenty 7-8 days postnatal Wistar rats were selected and decapitated cerebellar cortex, granular cell suspension was prepared and 4 × 109/m2 cells were seeded in the culture flask.Cells were exposed to different concentrations NaAsO2 [0 (control), 2, 5 and 10 μmol/L] for 24 h and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and apoptosis were determined by laser confocal,while real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect mRNA expression in cultured cells after 24 and 48 h cell culture.Results Fluorescence intensity of ROS of 0, 2, 5, 10 μmol/L fluoride groups were 421.32 ± 53.52,1 082.09 ± 321.58, 2 223.02 ± 1 011.37 and 1 366.87 ± 102.14, the difference was statistically significant (F =5.873,P ＜ 0.05);Apoptosis rates were (8.91 ± 5.63)％, (26.46 ± 1.77)％, (43.65 ± 14.45)％ and (56.04 ± 6.95)％, the difference was statistically significant (F =18.369, P ＜ 0.05);24 h nerve globin mRNA expression were 1.00 ± 0.06,0.77 ± 0.22, 0.43 ± 0.18 and 0.42 ± 0.14, the difference was statistically significant (F =18.235, P ＜ 0.05);48 h nerve globin mRNA expression were 1.00 ± 0.01, 0.89 ± 0.09, 0.60 ± 0.16 and 0.08 ± 0.02, the difference was statistically significant (F =80.843, P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion With increased NaAsO2 concentration, ROS and apoptosis levels are increased, while nerve globin mRNA expression is significantly reduced, suggesting that after the body is stimulated, protective proteins might be consumed, further suggesting nerve globin expression might be involved in nerve damage caused by arsenic.

Objective To investigate the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) of 5-HT1BR(rs6298),5-HT2AR(rs6311,rs6313) and 5-HT2BR(rs765458) gene,and their gene-gene interactions on suicidal behavior in major depressive disorder.Methods The blood samples were taken from 281 depression patients with impulsive suicide attempt and 281 age-matched healthy controls from a hospital in Harbin city,Heilongjiang province.The DNA isolated from blood samples and was genotyped using TapMan SNP genotyping probe.χ2 test was used to compare differences in the distribution of gene alleles between cases and controls.Haplotype and linkage disequilibrium(LD) analysis was performed using Haploview 4.0 software.GMDR was used to analyze the gene-gene interaction.Results The rs6313 and rs6311 of the 5-HT2AR gene were in strong linkage disequilibrium (D=0.756,r2=0.375).There was a significant gene-gene interaction of 5-HT1BR (rs6298),5-HT2AR (rs6311,rs6313) and 5-HT2BR(rs765458) on suicidal behavior(P<0.05).In this model,the test accuracy was 0.6182 and CV value was 10/10.Conclusion A haplotype containing rs6311 and rs6313 of 5-HT2AR gene is associated with suicidal behavior.The interaction of 5-HT1BR gene (rs6298),5-HT2AR gene (rs6311,rs6313) and 5-HT2BR gene (rs765458) are associated with depression suicidal behavior.

Currently, power generation in China is dominated by thermal power, wind power, nuclear power, and hydropower enterprises. The power source mainly comes from thermal power generation. The occupational hazards in thermal power station are noise, high temperature, power frequency electric fields, dust, and chemical toxins and so on, with noise and dust (silica and coal dust) being the primary factors. The occupational hazards in wind power station are noise, power frequency electric fields, high temperature, low temperature, and chemical toxins (sulfur hexafluoride, toluene, styrene, etc.), with noise and power frequency electric fields being the major concerns. The occupational radiation hazards in nuclear power station are gamma rays, beta rays, X-rays, neutrons, alpha rays, and radioactive aerosols. There is special attention in radiation protection but not enough protection in non-radioactive hazards such as noise, high temperature, and ammonia. The occupational hazards in hydropower station are noise, power frequency electric fields, vibration, radon and its de-composites, and chemical toxins, with noise and power frequency electric fields being the primary hazards. Different categories of power generation enterprises should identify key hazards and work site for occupational disease prevention and control based on the features of occupational hazards. Improving occupational health management and protection levels are essential measures.

Objective To investigate the effect of 810 nm low-level laser on neuronal axonal regeneration of mice with spinal cord injury and its related mechanism.Methods In vivo experiment:20 Balb/c mice were randomly divided into the spinal cord injury group(SCI group)and the 810 nm low-level laser irradiation group(low-level laser group)after spinal cord injury according to the random number table method,with each group containing ten mice.A mice SCI model was established through clamp injury and the low-level laser group continuously irradiated the damaged area with weak 810 nm low-level laser with selected parameters(continuous wave with wave length 810 nm,power density 2 mW/cm2,spot are 4.5 cm2,irradiation time 50 minutes,energy 6000J/cm2).Then immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the M1 macrophage marker-inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),the M2 macrophage marker arginase 1(Arg-1)and the universal marker F4/80 of macrophages after 14 days.Furthermore,in the in vitro experiment,standardized low-level laser-macrophage irradiation model was established.Another 20 Balb/c mice were used to obtain primary bone marrow-derived macrophages which were induced into M1 macrophages using lipopolysaccharide(LPS)and interferon-gamma(INF-γ).The M1 macrophages were randomly divided into the M1 macrophage group(M1 group)and the low-level laser therapy group(M1 + low-level laser group)equally according to the random number table method.The M1 group was not treated,and the M1 + low-level laser group was treated with low-level laser of selected parameters.RT-qPCR and ELISA were used to detect the expression of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist(IL-1RA)and interleukin-10(IL-10)in M1 macrophages 24 hours after irradiation.Western blot was used to analyze the expression of iNOS,Arg-1,differentiation antigen cluster 206(CD206),protein kinase B(AKT),phosphorylated protein kinase B(p-AKT),cyclic adenosine response element binding protein(CREB)and phosphorylated cyclic adenosine response element binding protein(p-CREB)in M1 macrophages 48 hours after irradiation.Dorsal root gangtion neurons(DRG)were cultured in two groups of macrophage conditioned medium,and the length of DRG axon growth was measured 48 h later to evaluate the effect of low-level laser on neuronal axon growth.Results In the in vivo experiment,compared with mice with spinal cord injury alone,the fluorescence intensity of F4/80+ iNOS+ in the spinal cord injury area decreased(1.00±0.08vs. 0.06±0.04)(P＜ 0.05)and the fluorescence intensity of F4/80 + Arg-1 + increased after low-level laser(1.00±0.07vs.2.15±0.12)(P＜0.01).In the in vitro experiment,compared with the M1 group,the expression of the M1 macrophage marker iNOS in the M1 + low-level laser group decreased(1.00±0.11 vs.0.08±0.01)(P＜ 0.01);the M2 macrophage marker Arg-1(1.00±0.14vs.2.44±0.16)(P＜0.01),and the expression of CD206(1.00±0.12 vs.1.83±0.05)(P＜0.01)increased.In addition,IL-1RA expression was increased in the M1 + low-level laser group compared with the M1 group(RT-qPCR:1.00±0.00vs.2.27±0.22)(P＜0.01)(ELISA:1435.58±100.48vs.2006.12±123.91(P＜0.05);IL-10 expression was also increased in the M1 +low-level laser group compared with the M1 group(RT-qPCR:1.00±0.00 vs. 3.45±0,56)(P＜0.05)(ELISA:137.13±4.20 vs.188.29±8.49)(P＜ 0,01);compared with the M1 group,the macrophage polarization pathway protein in the M1 + low-level laser group increased,AKT(1.07±0.12vs.1.74±0.04)(P＜0.01),p-AKT(1.00±0.12 vs.1.64±0.15)(P＜0.05),p-CREB(1.00±0.10vs.2.12±0.18)(P＜0.01).Compared with the M1 group,the conditioned medium of the M1 + low-level laser group significantly promoted DRG axon growth(567.66±63.59 vs.1068.95±130.14)(P＜ 0,05).Conclusions The 810 nm low-level laser irradiation can promote neuronal axon regeneration of mice with spinal cord injury,which may be related to the regulation of macrophage polarization phenotype by low-level laser through AKT/CREB pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bendamustine monotherapy in Chinese patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) .Methods:This prospective, multicenter, open label, single-arm, phase Ⅱ study investigated bendamustine’s efficacy and safety in Chinese patients with R/R B-NHL. A total of 78 patients with B-NHL in 11 hospitals in China from March 2012 to December 2016 were included, and their clinical characteristics, efficacy, and survival were analyzed.Results:The median age of all patients was 58 (range, 24-76) years old, and 69 (88.4% ) patients had stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ disease. 61 (78.2% ) patients were refractory to previous treatments. Patients received a median of 4 (range, 1-10) cycles of bendamustine treatment. The overall response rate was 61.5 (95% CI 49.8-72.3) % , the median response duration was 8.3 (95% CI 5.5-14.0) months, and the complete remission (CR) rate was 5.1 (95% CI 1.4-12.6) % . In the full analysis set, median progression-free survival (PFS) and median OS were 8.7 (95% CI 6.7-13.2) months and 25.5 months (95% CI 14.2 months to not reached) , respectively, after a median follow-up of 33.6 (95% CI 17.4-38.8) months. Lymphopenia (74.4% ) , neutropenia (52.6% ) , and leukopenia (39.7% ) , thrombocytopenia (29.5% ) and anemia (15.4% ) were the most common grade 3-4 hematologic adverse events (AE) . The most frequent non-hematologic AEs included nausea (43.6% ) , vomiting (33.3% ) , and anorexia (29.5% ) . Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that <4 cycles of bendamustine treatment was a poor prognostic factor for PFS ( P=0.003) , and failure to accept fludarabine containing regimen was a poor prognostic factor for OS ( P=0.009) . Conclusion:Bendamustine monotherapy has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of patient with R/R B-NHL.
