UCPs and PPARγ2 mRNA in diet induced obesity resistant rats Yang Nian-hong, Wang Chong-jian, Xu Ming-jia, Hu Xue-feng, et al. Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, School of Public Health, Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430030, China Abstract:Objective To explore the expression of uncoupling proteins (UCP) and peroxisome proliferator activated receptorγ2 (PPARγ2) mRNA in white adipose of highfat diet induced obesity resistant rats. Methods Thirtysix female SD rats were randomly divided into highfat diet group (n=27) and chow fed control group (n=9), and given either highfat diet or chow for thirteen weeks. Then the highfat diet group was subdivided into Dietary Induced Obesity (DIO) and Dietary Induced Obesity Resistant (DIOR) group according to the final body weight. Basic parameters, fasting blood glucose (FBG), blood lipid levels were measured and compared. Reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to measure the expression of UCP2, UCP3, and PPARγ2 mRNA in white adipose. Results Adipose deposits, body fat percent, TC, and TG conceration of both DIO-R and DIO groups were significantly higher than those in control group, while body weight,body fat percent and TG level were significantly lower in DIO-R than DIO rats. The expression of UCP2 and UCP3 mRNA in white adipose of DIO-R rats were significantly higher than those of DIO and control group. The expression of PPARγ2 mRNA in white adipose of DIO-R group was significantly lower than that in DIO group. Conclusion Highfat diet induced obesity resistance were closely associated with the increased UCP2, UCP3, and decreased PPARγ2 mRNA in white adipose. |

Protective effects of extract of ginkgo biloba againstethanol induced oxidative injury in rat testes Li Ke, Yao Ping, Zhou Shao-liang, Song Fang-fang, et al. Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene, School of Public Health,Tongji MedicalCollege, HuazhongUniversity of Science and Technology, Wuhan 〓 430030, China Abstract : Objective This study was designed to investigate whether EGB protect against ethanol induced oxidative injury in rat testes. Methods The rats were pretreated with EGB (4 . 8 , 9 . 6mg/ 100g bw per day) before 30 % ethanol administration ( 2 . 37g /kg bw by gastric incubation). Ninety days later, the rats were killed in order to measure the activities of Superoxide Dismutase(SOD), Glutathione Reductase(GST), Glutathione Peroxidase(GSH - Px), Catalase(CAT) and the contents of Glutathione(GSH),Reactive Oxygen Species(ROS), Malondialdehyde(MDA)in rat testes. The microsomal fractions were obtained by the method of differential centrifugation, and HO - 1(Heme Oxygenase - 1) activity in testicular microsomal was measured. To examine the expression of HO - 1 mRNA by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT - PCR). Results Compared with ethanol group, ROS, and MDA contents significantly decreased in EGB group testes, respectively(P<0 . 05). GST, GSH Px, CAT, SOD activities, and GSH content in EGB group testes elevated markedly(P<0 . 05).EGB could enhance HO - 1mRNA expression remarkably. Conclusion It is suggested that EGB as a preventive antioxidant can protect against ethanol induced testicular injury , which may be associated with HO - 1 activity enhancement, free radicals elimination, lipid per oxidation reaction inhibition. 基金项目:国家自然科学基金项目 (No.30271130) |

摘要: 慢性砷中毒对人体健康的损害严重而且危害广泛,一直是世界各国广泛关注的问题。本文首先简要介绍了慢性砷中毒的类型和主要临床表现,然后从砷的接触史、临床表现和实验室检查三个方面介绍国内外大规模现场人群调查的研究现状,并讨论这三方面研究对慢性砷中毒判定的意义,最后提出了进一步开展慢性砷中毒人群流行病学调查的几点思考。 关键词: 慢性暴露 砷中毒 流行病学 判定 Significance of field epidemiologic study to identificationof chronic arsenic poisoning Su Li - qin, Jin Yin - long Institute for Environmental Health and Related Product Safety, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 100021, China Abstract : Chronic arsenic poisoning has serious and extensive impact on human health, which attracts wide attention worldwide. Bases on vast public survey, this article introduces recent field studies on chronic arsenic poisoning from three aspects: exposure history, clinical symptoms and laboratory evidences, and also explains the meaning of each index to the determination of chronic arsenic poisoning, then bring forward some considerations on further epidemiological studies on chronic arsenic poisoning. Key words: chronic exposure, arsenic poisoning, epidemiology, determination |
