Most α2-AR agonists derived from dexme-detomidine have few structure differences between them and have no selectivity for α2A/2B-AR or Gi/Gs,that can lead to the side effect of drugs.To get novel and potent α2A-AR agonists,we built the homology model for human α 2A-AR and α2B-AR to find α2A-AR agonists with higher selectivity.Compound P300-2342 and its 3 analogs sig-nificantly decreased the locomotor activity of mice(P<0.05).Furthermore,P300-2342 and its 3 analogs inhibited the binding of[3H]rauwolscine to α 2A-AR and α 2B-AR respectively.In α2A-AR-HEK293 cells,P300-2342 decre-ased forskolinstimulatedcAMPpruductionwithoutincreas-ing cAMP pruduction,that indicated the P300-2342 acti-vating α2A-AR coupling with Gαi/o pathway without Gαs coupling.P300-2342 had no agonistic and antagonistic activities on α 2B-AR.Similar results were shown in 3 analogs of P300-2342.The docking results showed that P300-2342 formed the π-hydrogen bonds with Y394,V114 of α2A-AR,and with V93 of α2B-AR.3 analogs of P300-2342 formed several π-hydrogen bonds with V114,Y196,F390 of α 2A-AR and with V93 of α 2B-AR.We believe that these molecules can serve as leads for fur-ther optimization of α2A-AR agonists with potentially few side effects.

Objective:To explore the impact of King's theory of goal attainment combined with goal setting on the effect of standardized training of general practitioners.Methods:A total of 39 general practitioners who underwent the standardized training in The Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2019 to January 2020 were classified as control group, and traditional teaching was adopted. Another 42 general practitioners who underwent the training in The Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University during the same period were classified as a research group, and the teaching based on King's theory of goal attainment combined with goal setting was adopted. The theoretical knowledge and operational skills scores, changes in clinical comprehensive ability before and after the training, and teaching recognition were compared between the two groups. SPSS 25.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:After the training, the scores of theoretical knowledge and operation skills of the research group were both higher than those of the control group [(92.83±5.62) vs. (85.47±12.11); (90.15±7.22) vs.(83.36±11.24)]. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the scores of inquiry and communication ability, problem-solving ability, general medical thinking ability, interpretation ability of auxiliary examination results, clinical analysis and decision-making ability, team cooperation ability, community common disease diagnosis and treatment ability and humanistic care ability before the training ( P>0.05); the above scores were all improved after the training ( P<0.05), and the above scores of the research group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The total recognition of teaching in the research group was 95.24%(40/42), which was significantly higher than that 76.92%(30/39) in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of King's theory of goal attainment combined with goal setting in standardized training of general practitioners can effectively improve the level of general practitioners' theoretical knowledge, operational skills, clinical comprehensive ability and recognition of teaching.

Objective To investigate the role of Calcineurin binding protein 1(Cabin1)in renal tubular epithelial cells(RTECs)injury. Methods The male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into Sham-oper-ated and 5/6 nephrectomized group. Nephrectomized rats were further divided into two groups ,which were 4 and 8 weeks after operation,including 6 rats in each group. Rats were sacrificed at 4 or 8 weeks after nephrectomy,then control or remnant kidneys were harvested. 2μm sections of kidney tissues were collected and stained with Masson's trichrome and were graded for tubulointerstitial lesion score (TILS). RTECs mitochondrial morphology changes were detected by electron microscope. Western blot was applied to detect Cabin1 protein level in the renal tissue. Results At 8 weeks after the operation,plenty of RTECs fell off from the basement membrane,accompanied with interstitial fibrosis and the infiltration of inflammatory cells. Moreover ,TILS were significantly increased in rats at 8 weeks after operation while compared to sham-operated rats(7.16 ± 0.52 vs. 0.00 ± 0.00,P<0.05). RTECs mi-tochondria begun to swell at 4 weeks after 5/6 nephrectomy,while the disruption of cristae could be found in rats at 8 weeks. Cabin1 protein expression apparently increased in the remnant kidney. Cabin1 protein obviously increased in rats at 8 weeks after the surgery compared to sham-operated rats(0.97 ± 0.09 vs. 0.22 ± 0.07,P<0.05)and rats at 4 weeks after nephrectomy(0.97 ± 0.09 vs. 0.45 ± 0.03,P<0.05). Conclusions Cabin1 is overexpressed during RTECs injury in 5/6 nephrectomized rats. It can be a crucial factor regulating the damage of RTECs.
