BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that long-term moderate-intensity regular exercise can Improve the activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex enzymes In skeletal muscle cells, thereby Improving their power capability as well as the ability to resist fatigue. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of moderate-intensity training on prohibitin (PHB) expression and mitochondrial respiratory function in rat skeletal muscle. METHODS: Thirty-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: Quiet control group and moderate-intensity training group, each of 16 rats. In the moderate-intensity training group, the treadmill training was performed at a slope of 10°: In the 1st week, running at 10 m/min, 10 minutes per day, 6 days per week; in the 2nd week, running at 15 m/min, increased from 10 minutes per day to 60 minutes per day with an increase of 10 minute per day, 6 days per week; in the 3rd to 8th week, running at 15 m/min, 60 minutes per day, 6 days per week for a total of 8 weeks. Rats were sacrificed at 48 hours after the final experiment, and mitochondria were extracted from skeletal muscle samples. Mitochondrial respiration control rate, adenosine triphosphate content, reactive oxygen species level, complex V activity and PHB1 protein expression were measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the quiet control group, in the moderate-intensity training group, mitochondrial respiration control rate in the skeletal muscle increased significantly (P < 0.001), adenosine triphosphate content increased significantly (P < 0.05), reactive oxygen species level decreased significantly (P < 0.001), the activity of complex V was significantly increased (P < 0.05) and PHB1 expression was significantly increased (P < 0.01). The correlation analysis showed that after 8 weeks of moderate-intensity training, the expression of PHB1 in the skeletal muscle of rats was positively correlated with adenosine triphosphate content and complex V activity, and negatively correlated with reactive oxygen species level. Therefore, moderate-intensity training improves mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, effectively maintains mitochondrial membrane structure and enhances mitochondrial respiratory function by increasing the expression of PHB1.

Prostacyclin (PGI2) is a member of the prostaglandins family and the main product of arachidonic acid metabolism by cyclooxygenase and prostaglandin synthase. PGI2 mediates cellular activity through binding to G-protein coupled receptor, prostacyclin receptor, therefore leading to activation of adenylyl cyclase, accumulation of cAMP and activation of PKA. PGI2 plays an important role in vascular biology such as regulating vasodilation, platelet aggregation, vascular permeability, and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. At high concentrations, PGI2 is able to interact with peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor, a class of nuclear receptors, and modulate specific cellular functions such as angiogenesis. This paper reviews the research advances in PGI2 synthesis and signal pathway.

Neovascular age-related macular degeneration(nAMD)and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV)are leading causes of blindness and visual impairment in older population.They are both with a hemorrhagic and exudative macular disorder.PCV has been proposed to be a sub-type of nAMD,hut this is a matter of controversy.Although several genes are found to be associated with PCV and nAMD(CFH,ARMS2/HTRA1),but more genes show no common association with the two diseases.such as BF/C2,Elastin,PEDF,SERPlNG1,VEGF,APOE genes.All these Results might imply that PCV and nAMD have different pathogenesis.But in the current state of our knowledge for PCV and nAMD.we still could not conclude if they are the same diseases.The purpose of these review is to discuss the recent progress in the molecular biology of PCV and nAMD.

Objective:To analyze the intervention effect of a successfully created platform“intelligent interactive software for drug monitoring warning” on the decrease of medication errors and adverse drug events,and the increase of the drug treatment level. Meth-ods:The intensive care unit ( ICU) of our hospital was selected as the experiment group, and the ICU of the other two hospitals was used as the contrast group. During the first 18 months, both groups were without intervention. During the latter 18 months, the plat-form was used in the experiment group, and the clinical pharmacists employed alerts of the system in the practice of interaction with doctors to correct the medication errors. No intervention was performed in the contrast group. In addition, all adverse drug events in both groups were surveyed. Results:During the first period, 50 preventable adverse drug events were discovered with the incidence of 6. 8% in the experimental group. During the second period, the correct rate of the alerts was 97. 7%. Through the effective interven-tion,the alerts and their percentage in the prescriptions were from the maximum of 68 and 1. 1% to the minimum of 6 and 0. 1%. To-tally 17 preventable adverse drug events were found with the incidence of 2. 4% after the intervention. The decline was significant, 848 991 yuan of hospitalization expenses was saved, and 294 days of the length of stay were shortened. There was no change in the contrast group, and there was no change in unpreventable adverse drug events in the two groups before and after the intervention. Conclusion:The intelligent interactive software for drug monitoring warning can examine many sorts of medication errors,and decline the inci-dence rate of preventable adverse drug events in ICU. However, it needs to continuously improve the intelligence. Clinical pharmacists need to master the relevant conditions of patients to detect the irrational drug use based on the clinical practice for each patient.

Objective To comprehend the awareness rate and the implementation of risk factors related to Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection in families with children of Helicobacter pylori infection.To analyze the existing problems and formulate effective methods of health education.Methods Totally 558 families infected with HP were investigated with a self-designed structured questionnaire by call-back.Results 527 did not use separate eating tools,350 did not use independent tablewares,14 drank unboiled water,14 did not use bath appliances separately,7 used tooth glasses together,4 did not wash hands before eating and after toilet,no one had mouth-to-mouth feeding.248 children with HP sleeped with their family members and 246 family members used to have HP infections or stomach troubles.Conclusions The families with HP do not establish correct ways of separate eating,so the hospital need to develop multi-channel education.Most families with HP infected children have satisfactory health habits.Nearly half of the children with HP do not sleep in their own beds.Caregivers of children with HP infection should be the capital objects of health education.

Objective To investigate the relationship between non muscle-invasive bladder can-cer and polymorphisms of DNA repair genes among Han nationality in Shanghai. Methods From January 2006 to June 2008, 94 patients with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer and 304 controls were enrolled. Known single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) in the XPC, XPG, XRCC1 genes were detec-ted by TaqMan real-time PCR. After adjusted for age, sex, and smoking, interaction effects of the genotypes and non muscle-invasive bladder cancer risk, genotypes and clinical and pathological features of bladder cancer were analyzed using unconditional Logistic regression. Results After adjusted for age, sex, and smoking, the XPC 939 Lys/Gln, XPC 939Gin/Gin genotype and XPG 1104 Asp/His, XPG 1104 His/His genotype were more frequent in patients with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer, adjusted OR=1.89, 95%CI 1.14-3. 23 and OR=1.07,95%CI 0.86-1.87, respectively. The XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphisms were not significantly associated with non muscle-invasive bladder cancer, adjusted OR= 1.15, 95% CI 0.55-2.40. There were no significant associations between tumor clinical and pathological features in patients who possessed either the XPC or XPG polymor-phisms (P>0.05). Conclusion XPC Lys939Gln and XPG Asp1104His may modulate non muscle-invasive bladder cancer risk among Han nationality in Shanghai.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Zhenqing Capsule (ZQC), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, in treating type 1 diabetic rats with peripheral neuropathy. METHODS: Type 1 diabetes was induced by caudal vein injection of high-dose streptozotocin in 30 male Wistar rats. The thirty diabetic rats were randomly divided into three groups: ZQC-treated group, untreated group and aminoguanidine-treated group. Another group of 10 rats was taken as normal control. After 10-week treatment, the changes of body weight and fasting plasma glucose level were measured, and the serum MDA level and the changes of neurological electrophysiology were analyzed. The samples of sciatic nerve in diabetic rats were taken for morphological observation. RESULTS: The MDA level in type 1 diabetic rats was notably reduced in ZQC-treated group as compared with the untreated group (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, ZQC could improve the electrophysiology of sciatic nerve including conduction velocity (P<0.05), latency (P<0.01) and wave amplitude (P<0.05). The nerve myelin staining results showed that segmental demyelination of the nerve fibers in ZQC-treated group was not as serious as that in the untreated group. CONCLUSION: ZQC can obviously ameliorate the neurological electrophysiological function and the pathological changes of peripheral nerve in type 1 diabetic rats through the removal of free radical and resistance of lipid peroxidation.
