Objective To investigate the protective effect of high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization against hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury(HIRI)in rats,as well as the mechanism of action of high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization in activating autophagy.Methods A total of 56 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into plain sham-operation group(P-S group),plain model group(P-M group),acute high-altitude hypoxia sham-operation group(AHH-S group),acute high-altitude hypoxia model group(AHH-M group),high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization sham-operation group(HHA-S group),high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization model group(HHA-M group),and high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization model group with the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)inhibitor compound C(HHA-M-CC group),with 8 rats in each group.The rats in the acute high-altitude hypoxia groups and the high-altitude hypoxia acclimatization groups were placed in a low-pressure oxygen chamber at an altitude of 5 000 meters for 1 week and 12 weeks,respectively;the rats in the sham-operation groups were given laparotomy to expose the portal vein without vascular clamping;the rats in the HHA-M-CC group were given abdominal injection of 20 mg/kg CC at 1 hour before surgery,while those in the other groups were given injection of an equal volume of normal saline.An automatic biochemical analyzer was used to measure the levels of liver function parameters including alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and total bilirubin(TBil);HE staining was used to observe liver histopathological changes;transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the formation of autophagosomes in liver tissue;RT-qPCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of AMPK and Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1(ULK1)in liver tissue;Western Blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of phosphorylated AMPK(p-AMPK),phosphorylated ULK1(p-ULK1),Beclin-1,and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅱ(LC3Ⅱ).An analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups,and the least significant difference t-test was sued for comparison between two groups.Results Compared with the AHH-M and HHA-M-CC groups,the HHA-M group had significantly reductions in the levels of ALT,AST,and TBil(all P<0.05),alleviation of liver histopathological injury,a significant reduction in Suzuki score(all P<0.05),a reduction in the degree of abnormal morphological structure of hepatocytes under transmission electron microscopy,and significant increases in the number of autophagosomes,the mRNA expression levels of AMPK and ULK1(all P<0.05),and the protein expression levels of p-AMPK,p-ULK1,Beclin-1,and LC3Ⅱ(all P<0.05).Conclusion High-altitude hypoxia acclimatization can alleviate HIRI in SD rats by activating the AMPK/ULK1 signaling pathway and enhancing autophagy in hepatocytes.

Objective To construct the angiotensinogen (AGT)-targeting RNA interfering plasmids, and to explore the effect of AGT gene on the differentiation of preadipocytes 3T3-L1 in the mice.Methods The small hairpin RNA (AGT-shRNA)interference plasmids,with a scrambled Non-shRNA as control,were constructed on the basis of the activity of U6 promoter-driven expression vector psiRNA-U6.1/Neo and transfected into the mouse preadipocytes 3T3-L1.Two cell lines were generated from stable transfections.RT-PCR and SDS-PAGE were performed to monitor the mRNA and protein expressions of AGT gene,respectively.The effect of adipose AGT on the differentiation of 3T3-L1 was investigated through microscopic observation and profiling of adipocyte differentiation markers. Results Both AGT-shRNA and Non-shRNA interference vectors were successfully constructed;the expression of AGT mRNA was inhibited (P < 0.05 ) and the expression of AGT protein was 43.86% of control.Both adipocyte differentiation markers,intracytoplasmic lipid levels and glycerol-3-phophate dehydrogenase (GPDH)activities were increased during the differentiation of preadipocytes 3T3-L1,but the data were lower than those in control group (P <0.05).Conclusion AGT gene silencing can significantly inhibit the differentiation of preadipocytes 3T3-L1,which demonstrates that there is important relationship between adipocyte metabolism and renin-angiotensin system (RAS)in adipose tissue.

Objective To explore the risk factors of esophageal cancer and these factors' interaction Methods 472 new diagnosed cases of esophageal cancer in 2004—2005 and 472 controls were investigated by case-control study. Etiological fractions and interactions between family history of esophageal cancer and other risk factors of esophageal cancer were analyzed. Results The significant independent risk factors included taking hot-meal, preferring pickled-vegetables, preferring dry-rigidity-food, being irritable, drinking polluted-water perennially, family history of esophageal cancer and drinking alcohol a great deal. The etiologic fractions attributable to interaction were 0.855, 0.758, 0.683, 0.464, 0.459, 0.343 and 0.108 respectively. The synergy indexes of family history of esophageal cancer with taking hot-meal and with preferring dry-rigidity-food were both 0.86. Concludes The interactions between family history of esophageal cancer and ill life-behavior-style or drinking polluted-water perennially were particularly significant in the development of esophageal cancer in Dongping County.
