Objective To investigate the characteristics of changes in blood uric acid(UA)and detection rate of hyperuricemia(HUA)among officers and soldiers during long-term maritime missions,as well as their related influencing factors.Methods A total of 100 servicemen were randomly selected from 240 officers and soldiers who will participate in a long-distance voyage mission.Their general information,including age,education level,administrative position,years of service on board,and department,was surveyed.Their annual data of physical examination were retrospectively analyzed and compared with the results of another 335 shore-based servicemen during the same period.On mission day 10(D10)and day 50(D50),the venous blood samples were collected from the participants to synchronously measure blood UA level and body composition indicators(body fat mass,BMI,fat percentage,fat mass,muscle mass,and muscle percentage).Additionally,on D50,Self-Rating Scale of Sleep(SRSS)and Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90)were employed to survey their conditions.Seventy service members were randomly selected from the 100 participants to engage in aerobic exercise.The changes in UA level and detection rate of HUA among the mission personnel were analyzed,along with their influencing factors.Results The UA level and HUA detection rate in long-term navigation personnel during concurrent annual physical examinations were significantly lower than those in shore-based personnel(P<0.01).Compared to pre-voyage physical examination results,the UA level and HUA detection rate in long-term navigation personnel were significantly increased from mission day D10(P<0.001).Compared to the values at D10,the UA level and HUA detection rate at D50 showed significant decreases(P<0.05),and then essentially returned to pre-mission examination levels(P>0.05).Aged<32 years was an independent risk factor for new-onset HUA at mission D10(P<0.05).<32 years old and aerobic exercise during the voyage were independent influencing factors for HUA outcome(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum UA level and HUA detection rate among officers and soldiers participating in long-term maritime missions are relatively low before departure,but in significant increases during the early stages of the mission,particularly among those aged<32 years.Scientific aerobic exercise during the mission period helps reduce UA level and HUA detection rate,playing a crucial role in guaranteeing physical and mental health.

Objective:
To investigate whether the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) / exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (Epac) / ras-related protein 1 ( Rap1 ) signalling pathway is involved in the intervening mechanisms of interleukin-1 β (IL-1 β) ,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) ,brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Jujuboside A(JuA) secretion by NG2 cells.
Methods:
NG2 cells were cultured in vitro and the experiment was divided into control group ,pertussis toxin ( PTX) group ,ESI-09 group,JuA group and positive drug group.The effect of different concentrations of JuA on the survival rate of NG2 cells was detected by CCK-8 method,and the expression of IL-1 β , TNF-α , BDNF,cAMP,Epac,Rap1 mRNA and protein in each group was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.
Results:
Compared with the control group,the PTX group decreased the expression of IL-1 β and TNF-α mRNA and protein (P<0. 01) and increased the expression of cAMP and BDNF mRNA and protein (P<0. 01) ; the ESI-09 group increased the expression of IL-1 β and TNF-α mRNA and protein (P < 0. 05) and decreased the expression of BDNF,Epac and Rap1 mRNA and protein expression (P<0. 01) ; the JuA group and positive drug group increased IL-1 β , TNF-α , BDNF,cAMP,Epac,Rap1 mRNA and protein expression (P<0. 01) .
Conclusion
The cAMP / Epac / Rap1 signaling pathway is involved in the secretion of IL-1 β , TNF- α , and BDNF by NG2 cells.JuA may act on cAMP / Epac / Rap1 signaling pathway to affect the secretion of BDNF by NG2 cells.

The use of two inhibitors of Mek1/2 and Gsk3β (2i) promotes the generation of mouse diploid and haploid embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from the inner cell mass of biparental and uniparental blastocysts, respectively. However, a system enabling long-term maintenance of imprints in ESCs has proven challenging. Here, we report that the use of a two-step a2i (alternative two inhibitors of Src and Gsk3β, TSa2i) derivation/culture protocol results in the establishment of androgenetic haploid ESCs (AG-haESCs) with stable DNA methylation at paternal DMRs (differentially DNA methylated regions) up to passage 60 that can efficiently support generating mice upon oocyte injection. We also show coexistence of H3K9me3 marks and ZFP57 bindings with intact DMR methylations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that TSa2i-treated AG-haESCs are a heterogeneous cell population regarding paternal DMR methylation. Strikingly, AG-haESCs with late passages display increased paternal-DMR methylations and improved developmental potential compared to early-passage cells, in part through the enhanced proliferation of H19-DMR hypermethylated cells. Together, we establish AG-haESCs that can long-term maintain paternal imprints.
