1.Effects of resveratrol-induced cellular autophagy in control of neurodegenerative diseases.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2016;51(1):18-22
Cellular autophagy is a major degradative pathway for clearance of aggregate-prone proteins and damaged organelles. It plays an important role in regulating cellular homeostasis, cell growth and development, and disease development. Dysfunctional autophagy contributes to the pathology of various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease, in which specific pathological protein accumulation occurs. A growing body of evidence suggests that resveratrol plays a significantly role in the regulation of autophagy and clearance of pathological proteins. Resveratrol is a potential drug for neurodegenerative diseases therapy. This review focuses on the effects of resveratrol on cellular autophagy and clinical application in the control of neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and related factors of peptic ulcer (PU) and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in military men. Methods A stratified multi-stage cluster randomly sampling method was used. A questionary survey was conducted in 6 160 soldiers garrisoned at south China, inclding: PU symptoms and risk factors questionnaires; gastroscopy and Hp detection. Results Incidence of PU correlative symptoms (Sc≥5) in soldiers was 18.60%. The prevalence of PU was 12.78%.Higher incidence of PU was found among the soldiers who enlisted for less than 1 year, or were from south China, or served in armored troops. The prevalence of Hp infection was 62.67%. Hp infection (OR4.60), smoking (OR3.8), sustained intense training (OR4.3), fighting vehicle driving (OR6.0) and frequent mental intension (OR3.7) seemed to be the main risk factors of PU. While hot food, milk and whether or not the only child in a family showed no relation with PU incidence. Conclusion Higher prevalence of PU and Hp infection existed in service men. For soldiers, PU incidence is closely associated with Hp infection, military training, mental factors, and also related to soldiers′ enlisted period, arm of the service and the region where the soldiers come from.

Objective To study the role of nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) and peroxisome proliferation activator receptor-?(PPAR-?) in the development of Barrett's esophagus(BE) and esophagus adenocarcinoma(EA).Methods Fifty BE patients including 25 EA patients admitted in Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Command from Jul.2005 to Jul.2006 were involved in the present study.The expressions of NF-?B and PPAR-? in squamous epithelial cells of normal esophagus,BE and EA were investigated with immunohistochemical staining.The correlation between the expression of both NF-?B and PPAR-? and their clinicopathological features were analyzed.Results Positive staining of NF-?B was situated in cytoplasm,and that of PPAR-? in nuclei.No expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? was found in normal esophageal squamous epithelium,while they expressed in a medium extent in BE(positive staining in cytoplasm of goblet cells and surface glandular epithelium),and extensively expressed in EA.There existed significant difference in expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? in EA compared with those in BE and normal esophageal squamous epithelium(P

Objective To establish an animal model of pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis, and compare the roles of single pancreatic juice with pancreatic juice plus bile acids reflux in the pathogenesis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, group A: gastrectomy and end- to- side esophagojejunostomy (pancreatic juice and bile combination group, n=20); group B, gastrectomy and end-to-side esophagojejunostomy and bile-duct-jejunostomy (single pancreatic juice group, n = 20 ); group C: simple laparotomy ( n = 10). The rats were sacrificed 1, 2, 4 weeks after operation, and the change of weight of the rats and esophageal morphology was observed. Results Four rats in combination group died during or after operation, and the success rate of the model was 80%, 6 rats in single pancreatic juice group died, and the success rateof the model was 70%, both group A and B rats lost more weight significantly than that in control group, and the weight gradually increased 2 weeks later, but it was still lower than that in control group [(218 ±21), (216 ±20)g vs. (286 ±28)g, P<0.05]. Reflux esophagitis of different degree was present in both groups, which was more severe in the lower part of esophagus, and severity increased with time. The main histologic changes were inflammation, erosion, ulcer and epithelial cell hyperplasia and metaplasia. The severity of esophagitis was not significantly different between group A and group B. Conclusions The models of single pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis can be successfully made. It establishes the foundation for experimental research of pancreatic juice induced esophageal mucosa injury.

Objective:This work aims to explore the long-term efficacy and complications of late-course accelerated hyperfrac-tionation (LCAHF) for treating nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods:A total of 58 patients who consulted from December 2005 to May 2008 and histologically proven nasopharyngeal carcinoma at initial diagnosis were randomized into an LCAHF group (experimental group) and a conventional fractionation (CF) group (control group). The treatment dose for both groups was 2 Gy per fraction once dai-ly, 5 days a week. After the 40 Gy to 50 Gy dose, the dosage in the LCAHF group was increased to two daily doses at 1.5 Gy per frac-tion 6 h apart, 5 days a week. The total dose in this group was 73 Gy to 76 Gy, the total dose in the CF group was 70 Gy to 76 Gy, with the total course of the treatment shortened by 0.5 weeks to 1.5 weeks in the former group. Results:The 5-year control rates of the naso-pharyngeal cancers was 86% in the LCAHF group and 59% in the CF group (P=0.021), with statistically significant differences be-tween the two groups. The late complications slightly increased in the LCAHF group than in the CF group, but the differences were not statistically significant. Conclusion:LCAHF treatment improves the local control of nasopharyngeal carcinoma without increasing the incidence of long-term complications.

Objective To detect the expression of Th17 levels about peripheral blood in patients with bron-chial asthma in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,and to investigate its effect in pathogenesis of bronchial asthmaand. Methods Patients with acute bronchial asthma from 2014 April to 2014 November were collected in the experiment. There are 52 cases as observation group (group of patients with asthma),and the patients were then divided according the severity (mild,moderate,severe);in addition,select 50 healthy people in the same period in our hospital as con-trol group healthy control group.Collect peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,the expression of specific transcription factors ROR gamma T and cytokine IL -17 in the peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in Th17 cells levels were detected by real -time fluorescent quantitative PCR.Results The expression of IL -17,ROR gamma T in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the observation group were higher than the control group;the expression of IL -17,ROR gamma T in alveolar lavage fluid quantity and peripheral blood with severe patients in the observation group were higher than that in the mild patients,differences were statistically significant (P <0.05).Conclusion There are 17 auxiliary T lymphocytes in patients with bronchial asthma in vivo (Th17) advantage of expression,Th17 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.Bronchial asthma patients body may have advantage to heip expression of T lymphocytes 17 (Th17).Th17 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.
