Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism of self-efficacy between self-management ability and self-management behavior and its differences among patients with different disease courses through mediation tests. METHODS In the study, 489 patients with type 2 diabetes who attended the endocrinology departments of four hospitals in Shanxi Province and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from July to September 2022 were enrolled as the study population. They were investigated by General Information Questionnaire, Diabetes Self-Management Scale, Chinese version of Diabetes Empowerment Simplified Scale, and Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale. Mediation analyses were performed using the linear regression model, Sobel test, and Bootstrap test in the software Stata version 15.0 and divided the patients into different disease course groups for subgroup analysis according to whether the disease course was > 5 years. RESULTS In this study, the score of self-management behavior in the patients with type 2 diabetes was 6.16±1.41, the score of self-management ability was 3.99±0.74, and the score of self-efficacy was 7.05±1.90. The results of the study showed that self-efficacy was positively correlated with self-management ability (r=0.33) as well as self-management behavior (r=0.47) in the patients with type 2 diabetes (P < 0.01). The mediating effect of self-efficacy accounted for 38.28% of the total effect of self-management ability on self-management behaviors and was higher in the behaviors of blood glucose monitoring (43.45%) and diet control (52.63%). The mediating effect of self-efficacy accounted for approximately 40.99% of the total effect for the patients with disease course ≤ 5 years, while for the patients with disease course > 5 years, the mediating effect accounted for 39.20% of the total effect. CONCLUSION Self-efficacy enhanced the effect of self-management ability on the behavior of the patients with type 2 diabetes, and this positive effect was more significant for the patients with shorter disease course. Targeted health education should be carried out to enhance patients' self-efficacy and self-management ability according to their disease characteristics, to stimulate their inner action, to promote the development of their self-management behaviors, and to form a more stable and long-term mechanism for disease management.

Abstract
Spinal metastases (SM) is the commonest form of solid tumors osseous metastasis, for which surgical dissection is often performed when combined with spinal cord compression. Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) results from dissemination of cancer cells to both the leptomeninges (pia and arachnoid) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment. The spread of LM may occur via multiple routes, such as hematogenous, direct infiltration from metastatic brain lesions, or via iatrogenic seeding of CSF. Signs and symptoms associated with LM are generalized and various while early diagnosis of LM is challenging. Cytological evaluation of the CSF and gadolinium enhanced MRI brain and spine is the gold standard for diagnosing LM and CSF can help assess treatment response. While a number of other potential CSF biomarkers have been investigated both for the diagnosis as well as monitoring of LM, none have been established as a component of the standard evaluation of all LM or suspected LM patients. Management goals of LM include improving patient's neurologic function, quality of life, preventing further neurologic deterioration and prolonging survival. In many cases, it may be reasonable to pursue a palliative and comfort focused course, even from the initial LM diagnosis. Surgery is not recommended considering the risk of seeding with cerebrospinal fluid. A diagnosis of LM carries a poor prognosis with an estimated median survival of only 2-4 months despite therapy. Spinal metastases combined with leptomeningeal metastasis (SM+LM) is not uncommon and its treatment is similar to LM. LM can appear at the same time as SM or directly invaded by SM, which is thought regarding the pathophysiology of LM remains speculative and not systematically studied. The present article reports a 58-year-old woman who was first diagnosed with SM, but worsened after surgery repeated MRI examinations confirmed coexisting LM. Relevant literature was reviewed to summarize the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, imaging characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of SM+LM, so as to improve the understanding of the disease and promote early diagnosis. It should be vigilant to merge LM for the patient with SM when atypical clinical manifestations, rapid disease progression or inconsistent with imaging occurred. Repeated examinations of cerebrospinal fluid cytology and enhanced MRI should be considered when SM+LM is suspected to achieve timely adjustment of diagnosis and treatment strategy for better prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features of very well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (VWDA) of the stomach. Methods: The clinicopathological data of 12 cases of VWDA of the stomach were collected retrospectively at the People's Liberation Army Joint Logistics Support Force 989 Hospital (formerly 152 Hospital), Pingdingshan, China, from January 2013 to May 2021. The histological characteristics and immunophenotypes were observed and analyzed with review of current literature. Results: There were 8 males and 4 females with a median age of 63 years (range 47 to 80 years). The tumor involved in the upper part of the stomach in 6 cases, the middle part in 2 cases, and the lower part in 4 cases. The median diameter of the tumors was 17 mm (range 5-65 mm). The tumor cells were similar to absorbent cells, Paneth cells, foveolar epithelial cells, and goblet cells. The cells were arranged in a single layer, and the nuclei were slightly enlarged and located at the base. The nuclei were fusiform to slightly irregular, with loss of nuclear polarity. Early tubular VWDA was found in 9 cases, and the tumor glands were similar to intestinal metaplasia. In two cases the tumors infiltrated into the submucosa. The lesions in the mucosa and submucosa showed the glands with cystic expansion, bending, branching, spiky and abortive growth pattern. One case of early papillary tubular VWDA was confined to the mucosal layer and composed of foveolar-type epithelial cells. There were two cases of advanced papillary tubular VWDA, which consisted of foveolar-type epithelial, pyloric glands, or mucinous neck cells and were associated with intra-lymphatic cancer embolus and lymph node metastases. Background mucosal atrophy and intestinal metaplasia were observed in all cases. Immunohistochemical staining showed intestinal type VWDA in 1 case, mixed gastrointestinal type VWDA in 9 cases, and gastric type VWDA in 2 cases. The Ki-67 proliferation index of 8 cases limited to the mucosa was 40%-70%, 2 cases of infiltration into the submucosa and 2 cases of advanced carcinoma was 10%-25%. All the tumors showed a wild type of p53 protein expression pattern and negative HER2. Adenocarcinoma or high-grade dysplasia was diagnosed on preoperative biopsy in 5 cases, and chronic atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia in 7 cases. The median follow-up time was 28 months (range 12-72 months). No recurrence was found in the 10 patients with early cancer. Of the two patients with advanced carcinoma, one patient had lung metastases and the other died. Conclusions: Gastric VWDA is a rare low-grade malignancy with structural features of highly differentiated adenocarcinoma and extremely low cytological atypia. The diagnostic value of structural abnormality is significantly greater than cytological atypia. The invasive growth of irregular glands in the deep mucosa and submucosa is reliable evidence for diagnosis. The diagnosis of intramucosal VWDA is challenging and very difficult in some biopsy specimens.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicpathological features of basal cell type dysplasia of the esophagus. Methods: The clinicopathological data of 71 cases of basal cell type dysplasia of esophagus were collected at the People's Liberation Army Joint Logistics Support Force 989 Hospital, from 2009 to 2019, and the histomorphologic characteristics and immunophenotype were evaluated. The relevant literature was reviewed. Results: The ratio of male to female patients was 1.6∶1.0, and the median age was 65 years (range 48-81 years). The tumors were located in the upper segment of the esophagus in four cases (5.6%), the middle segment in 54 cases (76.1%), and the lower segment in 13 cases (18.3%).The median maximal tumor diameter was 12.0 mm (range 3-42 mm). According to Paris Classification, 0-Ⅱb accounted for 42.3% (30/71) of the cases. Under endoscope, the lesions were reddish with abnormal mucosal microvessels. Histologically, the neoplastic cells were small, with a high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio, similar to basal cells, and uniform in morphology. The structural atypia was characterized by dense and disordered tumor cells, loss of basal cell polarity, and absence of normal squamous differentiation gradient. In 10 cases, the tumors were confined to the lower part of the epithelium. The tumor cells were smaller and more uniform in shape, and extend to the superficial lamina propria. Sixty-one tumors involved at least the entire layer of the upper cortex. There were 31 cases of neoplasms with superficial invasive carcinoma. The types of neoplasms included typical squamous cell carcinoma, basaloid squamous cell carcinoma, small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma with sebaceous adenoid carcinoma, and differentiation of glandular/ductal epithelioid carcinoma. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the mutant expression rate of p53 protein was 41.5% (17/41). All 41 cases (100.0%) showed abnormal distribution pattern of Ki-67. According to the initial pathologic diagnosis, there were 18 cases of low grade dysplasia, 12 cases of atypical epithelial cells, and 41 cases of high grade dysplasia and superficially invasive carcinoma. Conclusions: Basal cell type dysplasia has unique morphologic characteristics and represents a tumor subtype in the morphologic lineage of esophageal squamous dysplasia. Tumor cells of basal cell type dysplasia, especially those distributed only in the lower part of the stratified squamous epithelium, may be tumor stem cells at the earliest stage of esophageal carcinogenesis and have multidirectional differentiation potential. When the tumor is confined to the lower part of the stratified squamous epithelium, it does not meet the diagnostic criteria for esophageal squamous dysplasia as defined by the current WHO classification.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the pathomorphological characteristics of colorectal adenoma with submucosal pseudoinvasion and to summarize the corresponding pseudoinvasion patterns. Methods: The clinicopathological data of 9 cases of colorectal adenoma were collected at 989 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force (4 cases) and Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University (5 cases), from 2016 to 2019. retrospectively, and the histomorphological characteristics and immunophenotypes were analyzed, and discussed in light of the relevant literature. Results: There were 8 cases of adenoma with stalk. Tumor glands were found in the submucosa at the head end of adenoma, similar to infiltrating adenocarcinoma. The structure and cellular morphology of submucosal glands were very similar to the intramucosal tumor while the local submucosal tumor showed continuity with the intramucosal tumor. The submucosal tumors were lobule-like or nest-like with clear boundary. The outline of the gland was smooth and blunt-round, and there was loose fibromyxoid stroma around the gland, similar to the mucosa propria stroma. Some cases of the submucosal glands were cystic dilated with mucocele formation and hemosiderin deposition. One case with broad stalk-base showed an elevated adenoma with local high grade dysplasia involved in the aggregated lymphoid nodule, forming the lymphoglandular complexes, simulating invasive adenocarcinoma with associated submucosal lymphoid aggregates. Submucosal cancer tissue and intramucosal cancer tissue had continuity, and their morphology was the same. The submucosal tumor was round in the outline, smooth and blunt in the edge, and surrounded by lymphoid tissue. There was no stromal response around the gland to promote the proliferation of connective tissue, neither was there single-cell or small-cell cluster, sharp angle branch of gland, or vascular infiltration. Conclusions: There are two unique morphological patterns in colorectal adenoma with submucosal pseudoinvasion. Morphologically, the data show that one is lobular-like pattern, and the other is lymphoglandular complexes-like pattern. The main features of the two patterns are the same-morphology and continuity of submucosal tumor and intramucosal tumor. The pushed glands were surrounded by the intrinsic membrane stroma and muscularis mucosae in proper order, lacking the typical morphological characteristics of invasive adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the skin damage, oxidative damage and DNA damage of welding workers caused by ultra violet. Methods: From 1 May to 30 June 2017, 125 welding workers were selected as the contact group, which was divided into 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10-year-working age groups with 25 workers in each group and 25 healthy volunteers as the control group. The workers in the contact group were investigated with questionnaires on the distribution and wearing of protective equipment; the subjects in the two groups were examined in dermatology, and the peripheral blood was collected to detect the total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and DNA damage of mononuclear cells, and the influence of ultraviolet on the above indexes was analyzed. Results: The distribution rates of welding mask, dust mask and goggles were 100.0% (125/125) , 96.0% (120/125) , 98.4% (123/125) , respectively, and the distribution rates of welding gloves were 64.8% (81/125) ; the wearing rates of welding mask and goggles were 100.0% (125/125) , 90.4% (113/125) , and the wearing rates of dust mask and welding gloves were 89.6% (112/125) and 64.0% (80/125) , respectively. The acute skin injuries such as hand and face peeling and skin pruritus were serious in the 2-year-working age group, and the chronic skin injuries such as insensitive and numbness and verrucous vegetations were the main manifestations in the 10-year-working age group. Compared with the control group, T-AOC in peripheral blood of workers exposed to 6, 8 and 10 years decreased significantly, and DNA content in comet tail of workers exposed to various working years increased significantly (P<0.05) , while DNA content in comet tail increased with working years (F=1501.130, P<0.05) . Conclusion: UV welding can cause skin damage, reduce the antioxidant capacity of the body, and increase DNA damage with the increase of working age.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of asthma among the elderly people in China and to analyze the clinical features, self-management and cognitive level of elderly asthma patients. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the last epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) and seven regions (north, northeast, southern china, east, south, southwest and northwest) in China from February 2010 to August 2012. 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The elderly patients aged ≥65 years were selected from the 2 034 asthma patients. The clinical characteristics, comorbidities, the status of asthma control and self-management and insights of the disease in elderly asthma patients were analyzed. Results: Among the 2 034 asthma patients, 584 (28.7%) were elderly asthmatics aged ≥65 years old and 1 450 (71.3%) were<65 years old. In the elderly asthma group, Early-onset asthma accounted for 439 (75.2%) and 145 (24.8%) were late-onset. The common clinical manifestations of elderly asthma patients were: chest distress 395 (67.6%), wheezing 304 (52.1%), cough 298 (51.0%). Common comorbidities of elderly asthmatics were: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 144 (24.7%), allergic rhinitis 122(20.9%), gastroesopheal reflux disease (GERD) 114(19.5%), allergic conjunctivitis 86 (14.7%), eczema 82 (14.0%), chronic bronchitis 76 (13.0%). The Asthma Control Test (ACT) scores of elderly asthmatics and non-elderly asthmatics were (18.5±3.2) and (21.7±3.4) respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.042). Of the elderly asthmatics, only 13 (2.2%) patients monitored daily using a peak flow meter. 93 (15.9%) patients aware that asthma was characterized by chronic airway inflammation. 64 (11.0%) asthmatics understood that the treatment goal. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations of elderly asthmatics are atypical, especially paroxysmal wheezing. Asthma in elderly people causes more comorbidities and mortality. The self-management and cognitive level of patients with asthma needs to be improved.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of severe bronchial asthma in Chinese people over 14 years old. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) located in seven regions (north, northeast, east, central China, south, southwest and northwest) of China from February 2010 to August 2012. A total of 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The clinical characteristics and related risk factors of patients with severe asthma in China were analyzed. Results: Among all asthma patients, 560 were newly diagnosed, accounting for 27.5% (560/2 034) and the percentage of previously confirmed patients was 72.5% (1 474/2 034). A total of 145 were eligible for severe asthma, accounting for 9.8% (145/1 474) of previously confirmed asthmatics and 7.1% (145/2 034) of all asthmatics. 83.5% (121/145) severe asthmatics had at least one trigger factor. Correlation analysis showed that the risk factors of severe asthma were: smoking (OR=1.543, 95%CI: 1.250-1.814), obesity (OR=2.186, 95%CI: 1.972-2.354), petting (OR=2.135, 95%CI: 1.904-2.283), combined with allergic rhinitis (OR=3.456, 95%CI: 2.721-4.326), gastroesophageal reflux disease (OR=1.842, 95%CI: 1.682-2.140), bronchiectasis (OR=1.665, 95%CI: 1.347-1.912) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR=1.312, 95%CI: 1.171-1.694). Conclusions: The most common comorbidities in severe asthmatics in China are allergic rhinitis and gastroesophageal reflux disease. The risk factors of severe asthma include obesity, allergic rhinitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, smoking and petting.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of knockdown of O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) on hepatocyte fat synthesis. Methods: Liver cell line L02 were used to established the model of hepatic steatosis. The levels of OGT and O-GlcNAc protein were detected by Western blot. The OGT knockdown cell line of L02 cells was established, and its lipid formation ability was detected after induction of oleic acid (OA). Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot were used to detect mRNA and protein expression of enzymes related to fat synthesis. An independent sample t test was used. Results: Western blot showed that the expression of OGT and O-GlcNAc was increased in L02 cells after adipogenesis (P < 0.05). After shOGT lentivirus infects L02 cells, OGT mRNA levels were down-regulated (P < 0.01). Oil red O staining showed that the lipid in L02 shOGT cells decreased, qRT-PCR showed that the mRNA expressions of fat synthase (ACC1), (FASN) and (SCD1) were decreased, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), protein Expression is consistent with mRNA expression. Conclusion: Knockdown of OGT can inhibit hepatocyte fat synthesis by reducing O-GlcNAc levels.

Abstract
Objective:The aim of this study is to explore the preventive and therapeutic effects of gelatin sponge on the occurrence and development of chylous leakage by combining the biological characteristics of gelatin sponge with the mechanism of left neck lymph node dissection. Method: Eight hundred and twenty-eight patients who underwent left neck lymph node dissection in our department were retrospectively analyzed, 568 of whom underwent routine chylous leakage prevention and treatment (group A), 260 underwent gelatin sponge tamponade fixation. The prevention and treatment of chyle leakage (group B) were analyzed. Result:Twenty-six cases of chyle leakage occurred in group A and 8 cases of chyle leakage occurred in group B. The incidence of chyle leakage in group B (3.1%) was not significantly different from that in group A (4.6%). However, the incidence of chyle leakage within three days after operation was better than that in group A, and the amount of chyle leakage was significantly less than that in group A. The time of improving chylous leakage by positive pressure bandaging was better than that of group A, with statistical significance. Conclusion:Gelatin sponge packing can not reduce the occurrence of chyle leakage, but can delay the occurrence time of chyle leakage and reduce the amount of chyle leakage. It has a certain clinical value in the active treatment of chyle leakage.

Abstract
Thyroid papillary carcinoma(PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer. The 2017 NCCN guidelines reported that PTC accounts for 89.4% of thyroid cancer, and papillary thyroid cancer is well known to most head and neck surgeons due to its weak invasiveness, good surgical excision rate and low recurrence rate. However, as the treatment progresses, we may also touch the rapidly progressing PTC, or even the paropharyngeal metastasis in a short period of time, and the reported rate is 0.43% to 2.5%.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of serum miRNAlet-7a in laryngeal carcinoma and the effect of let-7a on proliferation and apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells. Methods: Real-time quantitative PCR was used to determine the expression level of serum miRNAlet-7a. The miRNA let-7a mimetic was synthesized and transiently transfected into the laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell line by cationic liposome method. The effects of up-regulation of let-7a expression on laryngeal cancer Hep-2 cells were detected by FCM and MTT assays,respectively. The association of let-7a levels with laryngeal cancer and the diagnostic value for laryngeal cancer were analyzed. Measurement data were taken by t test or analysis of variance; Counting data were analyzed by χ(2) test and Fisher exact probability method. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of let-7a for laryngeal cancer. Results: The relative expression of serum let-7a in healthy subjects was significantly higher than that in patients with laryngeal cancer (0.931±0.094) vs (0.380±0.113) (t=26.507,P<0.01). The relative expressions of serum let-7a in patients with laryngeal cancer before and after surgery were (0.380±0.113) vs(0.493±0.164),with significant difference (t=3.848,P<0.01).The relative expression of serum let-7a was related to lymph node metastasis (t=2.946, P<0.01). There was a positive correlation between the relative expression of let-7a in laryngeal carcinoma and that in serum (r=0.466,P=0.003). After transfection of let-7a mimics, Hep-2 cells showed an increased significant increase in the expression of let-7a (P<0.01), proliferation (P<0.01) and apoptosis (P<0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the best critical value for relative expression of let-7a in the diagnosis of laryngeal carcinoma was 0.557 with a sensitivity of 0.794,a specificity of 0.727,an area under curve(AUC) of 0.859,and a 95%CI of 0.773-0.926. Conclusions: miRNA let-7a can inhibit the proliferation of laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells and promote apoptosis. Serum let-7a is down-regulated in patients with laryngeal cancer and the level of let-7a is related to lymph node metastasis,which would help early diagnosis and postoperative disease monitoring of laryngeal cancer,but further research is needed.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the clinical course of children with juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) until 14 years old. Methods: The clinical data of one hundred and twenty cases treated between Januray 1, 2002 and September 30, 2017 in Beijing Tongren Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Excluding the deaths and the lost, patients who could be ≥ 5 years without recurrence, were defined as the cured group, and < 5 years with recurrence defined as the recurrent group. Furthermore, using statistical methods to analyze the differences of the age of initial operation, total number of operations, invasive lesion, HPV infection, tracheotomy, airway dissemination after tracheotomy and time of tube wear between the two groups. Results: One hundred and three cases were followed up, except for the six deaths.Numbers of operations in eight cases were ≤2, and ≥3 in eighty nine cases.Peak of the primary surgical age were about 4.5 years old, while the self-healing trend occurred at nine years old. In the cured group, forty three cases were cured, with a curative rate of 41.7% (43/103), and there were all fifty four survivors in the recurrent group.The total number of operations, invasive cases, HPV positive cases and the G score of hoarseness in the recurrent group were higher than those in the cured group (F=13.02, χ(2)=13.04, χ(2)=17.37, Z=-4.59, P<0.05). The number of tracheal dissemination caused by tracheotomy in the recurrent group (66.7%, 27.8%)was more than that in the cured group (χ(2)=16.01, P<0.05). Compared with the time of wearing a tracheostomy tube in cured group, the recurrent group was longer ((3.4±3.1) years vs (8.3±6.7) years, χ(2)=7.19, P<0.05). Conclusions: 41.7% of the patients had no relapse for at least five years.There exsisted differences between the cured and recurrent group in the following aspects: the total numbers of surgery, the agression of the lesions, tracheal intratracheal dissemination after tracheotomy, the time of tracheotomy, the HPV typing and the G grading of hoarseness.

Abstract
Objective:To discuss the correlation of benign vocal cord lesions with occult vocal cord sulcus and the treatment of benign vocal cord lesions with occult vocal cord sulcus, through the analysis of surgical data, preoperative voice evaluation data and postoperative follow-up data of patients.Method:The data from 377 patients of benign vocal cord lesions with concealed vocal cord sulcus admitted to Beijing Tongren Hospital from 2005 to 2016 were reviewed. The follow-up time was more than half a year after surgery.Result:About 2.9% of the benign lesions of the vocal cords were associated with occult vocal cords sulcus,of which 61.27% were bilateral vocal cords sulcus,22.55% was right vocal cords sulcus,and 16.18% was left vocal cord sulcus.Of the patients with bilateral vocal fold sulcus,64.5% had benign vocal cord lesions and 35.5% had unilateral vocal cord benign lesions.Of the patients with unilateral vocal fold,73.97% were associated with ipsilateral vocal cord benign lesions, and 26.03% were associated with contralateral vocal cord lesions.In the 531 sides of the vocal cords sulcus,183 sides of vocal fold sulcus typeⅠwere not treated. The 332 sides of vocal fold sulcus type Ⅱ were treated with removed lesions of the vocal cords and microdissection of vocal cord adhesion.The 16 sides of vocal fold sulcus type Ⅲ were treated with removed lesions of the vocal cords,local tamponaded of autogenous abdominal fascia and microsutured to close the wound. There were 9 cases with 11 sides of vocal fold sulcus combined with the mucous bridge.The satisfactory rate of sound improvement was 80.37% in half a year after the operation.Postoperative fundamental frequency,jitter,shimmer and maximum phonation time were significantly improved compared with preoperative.Conclusion:The occurrence of benign vocal cord lesions may be related to occult vocal fold sulcus.Simultaneous treatment of benign vocal cord lesions with occult vocal cord sulcus can achieve satisfactory voice improvement.Therefore, we should pay attention to the treatment of vocal fold sulcus in the diagnosis and treatment of benign vocal cord diseases.

Abstract
The lung cancer incidence in the Xuanwei and neighboring region, Yunnan, China, is among the highest in China and is attributed to severe air pollution with high benzo(a)pyrene levels. We systematically and comparatively analyzed DNA methylation alterations at genome and gene levels in Xuanwei lung cancer tissues and cell lines, as well as benzo(a)pyrene-treated cells and mouse samples. We obtained a comprehensive dataset of genome-wide cytosine-phosphate-guanine island methylation in air pollution-related lung cancer samples. Benzo(a)pyrene exposure induced multiple alterations in DNA methylation and in mRNA expressions of DNA methyltransferases and ten-11 translocation proteins; these alterations partially occurred in Xuanwei lung cancer. Furthermore, benzo(a)pyrene-induced DKK2 and EN1 promoter hypermethylation and LPAR2 promoter hypomethylation led to down-regulation and up-regulation of the genes, respectively; the down-regulation of DKK2 and EN1 promoted the cellular proliferation. Thus, DNA methylation alterations induced by benzo(a)pyrene contribute partially to abnormal DNA methylation in air pollution-related lung cancer, and these DNA methylation alterations may affect the development and progression of lung cancer. Additionally, vitamin C and B6 can reduce benzo(a)pyrene-induced DNA methylation alterations and may be used as chemopreventive agents for air pollution-related lung cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To study the relationship between bronchial asthma and smoking status in Chinese people. Methods: Asthma epidemiological survey and stratified-cluster-random method survey were performed in residents over 14 years in 8 provinces (cities) of China from February 2010 to August 2012. Asthma was diagnosed based upon case history, clinical signs and lung function test. Smoking status was investigated by questionnaire. Results: Sampling population was 180 099 and 164 215 were valid. A total of 2 034 subjects were diagnosed as asthma including 79 692 men and 84 523 women. The overall prevalence rate of asthma was 1.24% (2 034/164 215). Smokers were 23.8% (39 137/164 215) in the whole population. Smokers were 34.5% (702/2 034) in asthmatic patients, compared with 23.7% (38 435/162 181) in no-asthmatic population. The incidence of asthma was 1.79% and 1.06% in smokers and non-smokers respectively (P<0.001), suggesting that OR of smoking was 1.70 (95% CI 1.55-1.86, P<0.001). According to asthma control test (ACT) score, the level of asthma control in non smoking group was higher than that in smoking group(43.2% vs 35.3%). The times of hospitalization due to acute exacerbations(0.51 vs 0.41 events/person/year), total hospitalization rate(27.35% vs 20.12%), annual emergency room visits (0.80 vs 0.60 events/person/year) and emergency room visit rate (31.77% vs 24.47%) were all much higher in smoking asthmatic patients than those in non smoking asthmatic patients, indicating that the level of asthma control in smoking patients was significantly worse than in non smoking patients. Conclusions: The smoking rate in Chinese people over 14 years is still high. The prevalence rate of asthma in smokers is significantly higher than that of non-smokers. The level of asthma control in smokers is significantly worse than that in non smokers.

Abstract
Objective: To detect the effect of brain cytoplasmic RNA 1 (BCYRN1) on the proliferation and migration of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) in rat model of asthma. Methods: Male SD rats were randomly divided into control group and asthma group (n=10 each). The ovalbumin (OVA) model was constructed in asthma group. Real time-qPCR was performed to detect the level of BCYRN1 in the ASMCs separated from the airway tissue of these rats. Then 2-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2, 4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (WST-1) assay, roche real-time cell analyzer assay and Transwell cell migration assay were performed to detect the viability/proliferation and migration of ASMCs which were transfected with Ad-BCYRN1.Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB was used to treat ASMCs to induce proliferation and migration, and the level of BCYRN1 was examined.The viability/proliferation and migration of ASMCs treated with PDGF-BB and transfected with si-BCYRN1 were detected. Inspiratory resistance and expiratory resistance were measured in rats with BCYRN1 knockdown.Briefly, rats were randomly divided into four groups: control (group A), sensitization + Ad-GFP (group B), sensitization + AdSM22α-siBCYRN1 (group C), control + Ad-SM22α-siBCYRN1 (group D) (n=10 each). The corresponding adenovirus vectors were sent to lung of group B, group C and group D through nasal spray. The OVA model was constructed in group B and group C. The rats in group A and group D were treated with saline.After 24 h of the last treatment with OVA or saline, rats of each group were given tracheal intubation, connected with breathing machine. Rats were injected with methacholine to measure the inspiratory resistance and expiratory resistance. Results: The level of BCYRN1 in ASMCs separated from rats in asthma group and in ASMCs treated with PDGF-BB was 3.60±0.45 and 3.53±0.35, respectively, significantly higher than those of the corresponding control (both P<0.01). Ad-BCYRN1 significantly increased the expression of BCYRN1 in ASMCs. The cell viability and proliferation rates of ASMCs transfected with Ad-BCYRN1 increased 1.75-and 1.47-fold compared to those of the control group, respectively (P<0.01); mobility increased 2.42-fold compared to that of the control group (all P<0.01). BCYRN1 knockdown reversed the increasing proliferation and migration of ASMCs induced by PDGF-BB. The cell proliferation rate and cell migration number in the PDGF-BB treatment group were (4.87±0.21)% and 80.00±5.00, respectively, which were significant higher than those in the si-BCYRN1 transfected group ((3.63±0.21)% and 25.33±2.52, all P<0.01). BCYRN1 knockdown reduced the inspiratory resistance and expiratory resistance in sensitization + Ad-SM22α-siBCYRN1 group. When the concentration of acetylcholine reached 1 mg/kg, the inspiratory resistance in the group A, group B, group C, and group D were 8.27±0.21, 25.40±0.56, 12.07±0.67 and 8.40±0.46 cmH2O·s·ml-1, and expiratory resistance were 13.30±0.56, 38.37±1.33, 16.40±0.56 and 13.40±0.46 cmH2O·s·ml-1, respectively (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Overexpression of BCYRN1 promotes the proliferation and migration of ASMCs in rat model of asthma.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the prevalence of severe asthmain China. Methods: The epidemiological data was collected from 2 034 asthmatics who were diagnosed in the last epidemiological survey from 2009 to 2010 in 8 provinces. Results: According to the questionnaire survey, among the 2 034 patients, the previously diagnosed patients accounted for 72.47% (1 474/2 034) and the percentage of newly-diagnosed patients was 27.53% (560/2 034). In those 1 474 previously diagnosed asthmatics, 122 (8.28%) were classified into severe asthma, while 6.00% (122/2 034) of all asthmatics and 0.07% (122/164 215) of total respondents presented as severe cases. Statistically, there was no difference in the prevalence of severe patients between men and women. The morbidity rate of severe asthma was the lowest in the 21-30 year old group and the highest in 61-70 year old group (0.85% and 8.31% respectively). The difference among ages was statistically significant (χ2=18.791, P=0.005). In addition, the prevalence rates of severe asthma were also significantly diverged among patients with different education background(χ2=24.639, P<0.000 1). A negative relation was found between education level and the proportion of severe cases. Moreover, the morbidity of severe asthma in smoking patients and non-smoking patients were significantly different as well (χ2=7.447, P<0.05). Compared with asthma patients who do not smoke, smokers were more likely to suffer severe asthma (OR=1.663, 95% CI 1.150-2.404). Conclusions: The prevalence rate of severe asthma in China is similar to that in other countries.Elderly patients have higher risk of severe asthma. Smoking is considered as a risk factor for severe asthma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects and possible mechanisms of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) on myocardial fibrosis in mice. Method: To observe the expression of transforming growth factor(TGF) -β1, CTGF, MMPs and the degree of myocardial fibrosis, 61 male Kunming mice were randomly divided into normal group, low dose UDCA group, high dose of UDCA group, spironolactone group, and the control group.Isoproterenol (ISO) injection was given subcutaneously (30 d) to make the model of myocardial fibrosis.Corresponding anti-fibrosis drugs (UDCA or spironolactone) were given by gavage.HE staining and Masson staining were performed to explore the inflammation and fibrosis in the myocardium.The expression of collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ protein was detected by immunohistochemistry to evaluate the degree of fibrosis among the groups.Western blot was used to detect the expression of transforming growth factor, (TGF)-β1, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, -9, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-4, -1 and anti-phospho-NFKBIA (p-IκB-α) inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) protein in myocardium. Results: HE and Masson staining results showed that in the normal group, myocardial fibrosis is less, while the control group showed a large amount of fibrotic tissue (P<0.05). Tissue fibrosis in the low/high dose UDCA group and spironolactone group was significantly reduced compared with the control group (P<0.05), in which high dose of UDCA reduces fibrosis more significantly.Immunohistochemistry results showed that collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ protein expression was significantly increased (P<0.05). Whereas in the low/high UDCA dose group and spironolactone group, collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ expression were significantly decreased (P<0.05), the high UDCA dose group decreased more significantly.Western blot results suggest that TGFβ-1 expression in the myocardial tissue was significantly increased compared to the normal group (P<0.05), whereas low/high UDCA dose group and spironolactone group, TGFβ-1 protein expression were significantly decreased [UDCA(1.52±0.16), (1.02±0.12), (1.01±0.21)vs (2.73±0.12), P<0.05], in which high UDCA dose group TGFβ-1 protein expression level decreased more significantly.However, there was no significant difference in the expression of CTGF, MMP2/9 and TIMP1/4 protein among the groups (P>0.05). UDCA decrease p-IκB-α expression and increase IκB protein expression dose-dependently. Conclusions: UDCA can relieve isoproterenol induced myocardial fibrosis and reduce the myocardial collagen Ⅰ and collagen Ⅲ deposition in a dose dependent manner.Down-regulating of TGFβ-1 protein expression through the inhibition of TGR5-NF-κB signal transduction pathway might be a potential mechanism underlying UDCA's effects.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the role of second mitochondria-derived activator of Caspase (Smac) and cysteinyl asparate specific proteinase 9 (Caspase9), alone and in combination, in predicting preoperative chemoradiotherapy sensitivity in patients with rectal carcinoma by investigating the relationship between the expression of Smac and Caspase9 and the pathologic response in patients who have received preoperative chemoradiotherapy.
METHODS: The biopsy specimens before chemoradiotherapy and surgical specimens were obtained from 43 cases of rectal adenocarcinoma who received preoperative chemoradiotherapy from July 2008 to June 2013. Immunohistochemical staining was used to test the protein expression levels of Smac and Caspase9, and the relationship between Smac and Caspase9 protein expression levels and postoperative pathological response was analyzed.
RESULTS: The effective rate of preoperative chemoradiotherapy was as high as 72.1%, and the pathological complete response rate was 30.2%. The expression of Smac and Caspase9 was altered after chemoradiotherapy (P < 0.001 for both). Their expression levels were significantly downregulated after chemoradiotherapy. The effective rate of preoperative chemoradiotherapy was significantly increased in patients who were positive for Caspase9 protein expression (staining score range, 1 to 8) before chemoradiotherapy (P < 0.05). And the effective rate was further increased when Smac and Caspase9 proteins were both positive (P = 0.0002). The survival analysis indicated that chemoradiotherapy response was correlated with the overall survival, and the survival was significantly longer in the response arm than in the non-response arm (P = 0.0193).
CONCLUSION: The positive expression of Caspase9 protein in biopsy specimens before chemoradiotherapy can be a marker for sensitivity to radiation and chemotherapy in patients with rectal cancer. Joint detection of Smac and Caspase9 proteins can be more reliable in predicting the sensitivity to preoperative chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer patients. The response to chemoradiotherapy is a key factor responsible for patients' prognosis. The joint detection of Smac and Caspase9 can be helpful in screening out patients who are sensitive to preoperative chemoradiation.

Abstract
In recent years, more and more scholars tend to study neuroblastoma (NB) since it possesses increasing morbidity, but lack of effective treatment. This paper aims to investigate variation and clinical significance of the neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) level in serum of children with NB before and after Auto Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation (APBSCT). A total of 90 children with NB from various hospitals were included in this research, and we analyzed the relationship between levels of NSE and LDH and the change of disease by comparing the two levels before and after APBSCT treatment. The results indicated that the positive rate of NSE in serum was high before treatment, and the levels of NSE and LDH were remarkably higher than those when the treatment was valid; after comprehensive treatment of chemotherapy, excision and radiotherapy, there was a significant difference of NSE and LDH levels in serum between children with complete remission (CR) and those with partial remission (PR); however, no significant differences of NSE and LDH levels were found among children in progressive stage compared to before treatment. It is believed that NSE and LDH levels are associated to the recurrence and treatment effect of NB, proving that both can reflect tumor load, therefore they can be taken as the auxiliary indicators for monitoring curative effects of NB treatment.

Abstract
An electronic nose based on metal oxide sensors was used to measure goaty flavor in goat milk samples. To study the relationships between electronic nose data, sensory data, and levels of free fatty acids (FFA), multivariate partial least square regression (PLS) was carried out. The electronic nose system evaluation correlated well with sensory evaluation. The coefficients of determination (R(2)) of the PLS models reached 90.0%. The electronic nose, combined with principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis, can discern among goat milk samples with different goaty flavor intensities. In addition, Fisher discriminant analysis and back-propagation neural network were carried out to evaluate goaty flavor intensity, and the prediction accuracies were 98.2 and 100.0%, respectively. The electronic nose is a potentially useful tool to evaluate goaty flavor intensity in goat milk samples.

Abstract
The genotoxicity of fenpropathrin and fenitrothion on root tip cells of Vicia faba was studied. The symptoms were investigated about the mitotic index, the micronucleus frequency and chromosomal aberration frequency of root tip cells of Vicia faba which were induced by different concentrations of fenpropathrin and fenitrothion (1 × 10(-10)-1 × 10(-2) g L(-1)). Results showed that fenpropathrin and fenitrothion could induce the micronucleus of root tip cells of Vicia faba. It occurred in a dose-dependent manner. Peaks were observed at 1 × 10( -6) g L(-1) fenpropathrin and 1 × 10(-4) g L(-1) fenitrothion, and micronucleus frequency reached 14.587 ± 1.511‰ and 14.164 ± 1.623‰, respectively. From 1 × 10(-10) g L(-1) to 1 × 10( -6) g L(-1) fenpropathrin and 1 × 10(-4) g L(-1) fenitrothion, the micronucleus frequency increased with the increase of the concentrations, but beyond this range, the micronucleus frequency decreased with the further increase of the concentrations. A similar trend was observed for mitotic index. Moreover, fenpropathrin and fenitrothion could induce various types of chromosome aberration, such as lagging chromosomes, chromosome fragment, chromosome bridge, multipolar, nuclear buds, karyorrhexis, etc.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hyperthermia induces tumour cell apoptosis through the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway; however, the signal transduction mechanism underlying this process still needs to be fully elucidated. Phospholipid scramblase 3 (PLS3), a target of protein kinase C-delta (PKC-delta), resides in mitochondria and plays pivotal roles in regulating apoptotic response. Activated PLS3 facilitates cardiolipin (CL) translocation from the mitochondrial inner membrane to the outer leaflet of the mitochondrial outer membrane and triggers apoptosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The tongue squamous cell carcinoma Tca8113 cells were transfected or co-transfected using Lipofectamine 2000 with plasmids pCMV-6xHis-PLS3, pCMV-6xHis-PLS3 (T21A), pHA-PKC-delta, pHA-PKC-delta-KD (K376R), pHA-Hsp27, and empty control plasmid pcDNA3.1. The transfected cells were heated in water bath at 43 degrees C for 20 min, 40 min and 60 min. Assessments of apoptosis and redistribution of mitochondrial cardiolipin were performed by flow cytometry. PLS3, PKC-delta, Hsp27, phosphorylation of PLS3 and PLS3/PKC-delta interaction were detected by western blotting. RESULTS In our study the results show that elevated levels of the wild-type PLS3, but not the PLS3 (T21A) mutant, is able to increase hyperthermia-induced CL translocation and apoptosis. Wild-type PKC-delta facilitates PLS3 phosphorylation, PKC-delta/PLS3 interaction, and CL translocation, which consequently promote apoptosis. In contrast, heat shock protein 27 (Hsp27) blocks PKC-delta-induced PLS3 phosphorylation, suppresses PKC-delta/PLS3 interaction and CL translocation, and inhibits apoptosis. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that phosphorylation of PLS3 by PKC-delta is involved in the hyperthermia-induced apoptotic signal transduction pathway in Tca8113 cells, and that Hsp27 blocks this pathway to suppress hyperthermia-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
Cadmium has been shown to prevent Vicia faba growth by inhibiting cell mitosis. In this study we investigated the role of Alginate-derived Oligosaccharides (ADO) in alleviating Vicia faba root tip cells damaged by 6 and 8 mg L(-1) CdCl2. Micronucleus assay and chromosomal aberration assay were used to determine mitotic index, micronucleus frequency and chromosomal aberration frequency. The results showed that micronucleus frequency of Vicia faba root tip cells was inhibited under all the ADO concentrations. Especially, the inhibition ratio of 0.125% ADO highly reached 66.11 and 67.17% in 6 and 8 mg L(-1) CdCl2, respectively. Furthermore, the mitotic index increased (p < 0.05) and chromosomal aberration frequency decreased (p < 0.05) under all the ADO concentrations. This indicated that ADO had a significant alleviation effect on Vicia faba root tip cells damaged by cadmium.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE The incidence of lung cancer is high at Xuanwei, Yunnan Province, at where the mortality rate of this disease in women is the highest in China. This study was to establish a Xuanwei woman lung adenocarcinoma cell line, and provide an in vitro experimental model for the study of preventing and treating lung cancer. METHODS The cells derived from a surgical specimen of a woman patient with lung cancer were primarily cultured. The biological characteristics of the cell line were studied with light and electron microscopes, determination of doubling time and growth curve, culturing in soft agar, flow cytometry (FCM), chromosome and G-band detection, c-12 multiple tumor markers detection, and inoculation in mice. RESULTS Morphologic study, proliferation dynamics, and invasive growth showed that the cultured cells have malignant characteristics. Their chromosome numbers ranged from 55 to 69, with a mode number of 60-63. The tumor formation rate in mice was 100% after axillary transplantation of the cells; the morphology of the tumor cells was similar to that of the pathologic specimen of the patient. The cell line was named XWLC-05. CONCLUSION According to the newest rules of establishing a cell line in vitro, XWLC-05 is proved to be a new cell line of human lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Human ASB-17 (Ankyrin Repeat and SOCS Box-containing 17) is a recently identified gene belonging to the ASB family, isolated from testis cDNA library. Human ASB-17 is expressed exclusively in testis among 16 tissues, revealed by Northern blot. Mouse Asb-17 was shown to be expressed from the third week post birth to adult by semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. In situ hybridization on frozen sections demonstrated that Asb-17 is expressed in spermatogenic cells in adult mouse, but not in Leydig cell and epididymis in adult mouse. ASB-17 proteins are highly conserved in mammals including human, mouse, rat, Canis familiaris and Macaca fascicularis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR gamma) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-dependent transcriptional factors with beneficial effects in diabetes mediated by improved insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism, but potential adverse effects in atherosclerosis by promoting in vitro foam cell formation. We explored whether a PPAR gamma agonist, troglitazone (TGL), affects sclerosis by mechanisms unrelated to insulin and lipid effects in a model of nondiabetic glomerulosclerosis. METHODS Adult male Sprague Dawley rats underwent 5/6 nephrectomy and were treated for 12 weeks as follows: control (CONT), no further treatment; triple antihypertensive therapy (TRX); and TGL or TGL + TRX. Functional, morphological, and molecular analyses were performed. RESULTS Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was increased in CONT and TGL groups (161 +/- 1 and 160 +/- 3 mm Hg), but not in TGL + TRX and TRX (120 +/- 3 vs. 126 +/- 1 mm Hg, P < 0.0001 vs. non-TRX). Serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels in all groups remained normal except for slightly higher serum cholesterol levels in TRX group. TGL groups had reduced proteinuria, serum creatinine, and glomerulosclerosis versus CONT, in contrast to no significant effect with TRX alone (sclerosis index, 0 to 4+ scale: CONT 1.99 +/- 0.42, TGL 0.85 +/- 0.12, TGL + TRX 0.56 +/- 0.14, TRX 1.30 +/- 0.21; TGL, P < 0.05; TGL + TRX, P = 0.01 vs. CONT). Glomerular cell proliferation, assessed by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), was decreased after treatment with TGL or TGL + TRX, in parallel with decreases in glomerular p21 mRNA and p27 protein compared with CONT and TRX (PCNA + cells/glomerulus: CONT 2.04 +/- 0.64, TGL 0.84 +/- 0.21, TGL + TRX 0.30 +/- 0.07, TRX 1.38 +/- 0.37; TGL, P < 0.05, TGL + TRX, P < 0.01 vs. CONT). Glomerular plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) immunostaining was decreased in TGL or TGL + TRX groups (0 to 4+ scale, CONT 2.42 +/- 0.32, TGL 1.40 +/- 0.24, TGL + TRX 1.24 +/- 0.17, TRX 2.53 +/- 0.24; TGL or TGL + TRX vs. CONT, P < 0.05), with a parallel decrease in PAI-1 mRNA by in situ hybridization. Glomerular and tubular transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) mRNA expression was decreased with TGL treatment. Glomerular macrophages, present in CONT and TRX rats, did not express PPAR gamma, in contrast to PPAR gamma + macrophages in control carotid artery plaque. PPAR gamma was expressed in resident cells. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate in vivo that the PPAR gamma ligand TGL ameliorates the progression of glomerulosclerosis in a nondiabetic model. Macrophages show phenotypic diversity in glomerular versus vascular sclerosis, with macrophage PPAR gamma expression in only the latter. PPAR gamma beneficial effects are independent of insulin/glucose effects and are associated with regulation of glomerular cell proliferation, hypertrophy, and decreased PAI-1 and TGF-beta expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glomerular and vascular sclerosis increase with aging, and angiotensin inhibitors ameliorate progression of this injury. We investigated the potential for achieving regression of existing age-related sclerosis, and the mechanisms by which angiotensin type 1 receptor antagonist (AIIRA) may affect remodeling of this sclerosis. We focused on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) because it is directly induced by angiotensin, inhibits matrix degradation, and may thus be pivotal in remodeling. METHODS Eighteen-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with the AIIRA losartan (N = 8, 80 mg/L, dry weight), sacrificed at age 21 and 24 months, and compared with age-matched untreated controls (N = 15). Blood pressure and renal function were monitored, and morphological, biochemical, and molecular analyses were done on aorta and kidney. RESULTS Body weight increased in both groups. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and serum creatinine remained normal (24-month MAP 115 +/- 8 vs. 113 +/- 6 mm Hg, controls vs. AIIRA, P = NS). Aorta wall thickness ratio was reduced by AIIRA at 21 and 24 months vs. age-matched controls (21 months 0. 12 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.15 +/- 0.01, P = 0.006; 24 months 0.10 +/- 0.005 vs. 0.14 +/- 0.003, AIIRA vs. controls, respectively, P = 0.0027). The aorta wall thickness ratio after treatment with AIIRA for six months was even lower than that of 18-month control rats (P = 0.018). AIIRA reduced proteinuria versus age-matched control at 24 months (253 +/- 62 vs. 390 +/- 51 mg/24 h, P = 0.0017). AIIRA at 24 months decreased glomerulosclerosis versus age-matched control (sclerosis index, 0 to 4+ scale: 0.06 +/- 0.02 vs. 0.49 +/- 0.12, P = 0.0082) to levels even lower than the 18-month baseline (0.37 +/- 0.14, P = 0.014). Renal collagen content increased with aging and was decreased by AIIRA at 24 months (5.0 +/- 0.7 vs. 3.1 +/- 0.5% collagen, P < 0.05). Apoptosis, assessed by TUNEL, was increased in tubular and interstitial cells in aging and was reduced by AIIRA versus control and baseline, respectively (TUNEL scoring, AIIRA 24 months 0.33 +/- 0.16 vs. 1.06 +/- 0.23 and 0.80 +/- 0.05, P < 0.05). PAI-1 mRNA in kidney was decreased at 24 months in AIIRA versus age-matched controls (PAI-1/GAPDH density ratio: AIIRA 24 months 0. 34 +/- 0.05 vs. 24-month controls 0.99 +/- 0.05, P < 0.05). Increased glomerular PAI-1 immunostaining with aging was decreased by AIIRA at 24 months versus age-matched controls, even below baseline (staining score 0 to 4+, 0.57 +/- 0.15 vs. control 0.90 +/- 0.07, P < 0.05; baseline 1.05 +/- 0.02, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION We conclude that AIIRA not only slows the progression of glomerular and vascular sclerosis in aging, but can also induce regression of these processes. The mechanisms appear to involve modulation of cortical cell turnover and inhibition of PAI-1 expression.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO), apparently identical to endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) in blood vessels, has been reported to be formed in adult brain tissue, and the possible physiological significance of NO in neuron functions has been suggested. The present study was undertaken to demonstrate the biochemical evidence of the presence of NO synthase activity in intact neurons. In this report, we will demonstrate first that NO synthase is also present in fetal brain where neurons can easily be isolated from and can be cultured in vitro and then we will present the evidence that the cultured neurons are responsible for NO production. We will also show that the distribution pattern of NO synthase in adult brain detected by our biochemical method is well consistent with the immunohistochemical data reported so far. NO synthase activity, which was measured as the formation of [3H]citrulline from [3H]arginine in the presence of Ca2+ and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), existed in the homogenate of adult rat cerebrum, olfactory bulb and cerebellum. The cerebellum showed the strongest NO synthase activity and the cerebrum showed the least but significant activity. It was also revealed that NO synthase activity also existed in the homogenate of cerebra of rat embryos, the activity, however, was about half of that in adult cerebrum. Furthermore, the homogenate of the cultured neurons prepared from the rat embryonal cerebra has also shown NO synthase activity. These results suggest that NO has some important roles in the development of the neuron system.

Abstract
The effects of endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP), which produces nitric oxide (NO) spontaneously, on cultured astrocytes prepared from cerebra of rat embryos were examined. EDRF produced by vascular endothelial cells in response to bradykinin stimulation, caused a significant rise in cyclic GMP levels of astrocytes. SNP also increased cyclic GMP levels of astrocytes in a dose-dependent way. These results revealed for the first time unambiguously that astrocytes are responsive to EDRF.
