Abstract
游离氨基酸不仅是一类重要的营养物质,更与中华绒螯蟹独特的滋味和香味密切相关。对游离氨基酸含量进行测定,能为中华绒螯蟹产品的品质评价和风味研究提供有价值的信息。该工作通过优选提取溶剂、优化仪器测定参数,最终使用5%(v/v)高氯酸水溶液提取目标物,采用XDB-C18色谱柱(100 mm×4.6 mm, 1.7 μm),以0.1%(v/v)甲酸水溶液-乙腈为流动相进行梯度洗脱,在电喷雾正离子电离、选择离子扫描模式下进行检测,外标法定量,建立了超高效液相色谱-高分辨质谱(UHPLC-HRMS)测定中华绒螯蟹中17种游离氨基酸含量的方法。结果表明,17种氨基酸在10.0~200.0 mg/L范围内线性关系良好,相关系数(R2)≥0.9990,仪器检出限为0.3 mg/L,仪器定量限为1.0 mg/L。在中华绒螯蟹可食部分中按三水平进行加标回收试验,各目标物的回收率在78.4%~105.3%之间。通过对仪器和方法精密度进行评估,发现17种氨基酸测定仪器重复性的RSD≤4.2%,方法重复性试验的RSD≤5.2%,再现性试验的RSD≤11.4%,精密度数据均在合理范围内。利用该研究建立的检测方法对20个中华绒螯蟹样本进行了实际样品检测,总结了17种游离氨基酸在蟹肉、蟹膏、蟹黄中的分布特点,验证了该方法是一种前处理简便、选择性好、准确度高的检测技术。

Abstract
建立了一种气相色谱-质谱同时测定植物油中3-氯丙二醇酯、2-氯丙二醇酯和缩水甘油酯的方法。称取0.25 g样品,依次加入内标工作液、四氢呋喃和酸性溴化钠溶液,50 ℃水浴反应15 min,加入6 g/L碳酸氢钠溶液终止反应,使用正己烷提取,上层液经氮气吹干后用四氢呋喃溶解。随后加入1.8%(v/v)硫酸-甲醇溶液于40 ℃恒温水浴中反应16 h,加入饱和碳酸氢钠溶液终止反应。样液再经过净化、衍生、提取、氮吹后,以1 mL正己烷定容,过膜,进样测定。采用毛细管气相色谱柱DB-5MS(30 m×0.25 mm×1 μm)分离,程序升温,电子轰击电离(EI)源检测,在选择离子扫描模式下,以保留时间和特征离子信息进行定性分析,内标法定量。结果表明,3-氯丙二醇酯、2-氯丙二醇酯和缩水甘油酯在0.01~0.80 mg/L范围内线性关系良好,相关系数(r2)均在0.999以上,方法的检出限(S/N=3)和定量限(S/N=10)分别为25、25、20 μg/kg和75、75、60 μg/kg。选取4种不同基质类型的样品,在低、中、高3个不同添加水平下的平均回收率为89.0%~98.7%,相对标准偏差(RSD)在2.05%~7.81%之间。采用该方法测定了市售112份植物油样本,其中有84份样本检出3-氯丙二醇酯、2-氯丙二醇酯和缩水甘油酯。与已建立的国家标准方法(GB 5009.191-2016)和行业标准方法(SN/T 5220-2019)相比,该方法所采用的酸性酯交换法可避免副反应(碱性条件下3-氯丙二醇、2-氯丙二醇及3-溴丙二醇向游离态缩水甘油转化)的发生,同时该方法也弥补了国家标准和行业标准无法对3-氯丙二醇酯、2-氯丙二醇酯和缩水甘油酯同时进行测定的缺失。该方法实验操作更高效,结果更准确、重复性更好,对我国植物油中3-氯丙二醇酯、2-氯丙二醇酯和缩水甘油酯污染水平的控制、检测标准的制定和生产工艺的优化具有一定的理论和现实意义。

Abstract
Background/aim Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2 (S1PR2), a member of the seven-transmembrane receptor family, can be activated by its natural ligand sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) to initiate signal transduction and is involved in a wide range of biological effects such as immune cell migration and vascular permeability. Its relationship with neuropathic pain (NP) has not been reported. In this study, the effects of S1PR2 on the development of NP were studied. Materials and methods We generated a model of NP by partial sciatic nerve ligation (pSNL). The 50% paw withdrawal threshold of the wild-type (WT) group and the S1PR2 deficiency group were measured at several time points after surgery. The inflammatory factor levels of the two groups were measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Neutrophil infiltration and glial cell activation were detected by immunofluorescence. Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) and its substrate myelin basic protein (MBP) were measured by RT-PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence.Result: The S1PR2 deficiency group showed a reduction in 50% paw withdrawal threshold compared with WT mice (P < 0.05) at 3 days after the operation. In the ligated sciatic nerve of the S1PR2 deficiency group, the mRNA expression of IL-1β was increased; the numbers of infiltrating neutrophils and activated astrocytes were also increased. The expression of MMP9 was elevated while MBP was decreased. Conclusion S1PR2 deficiency could increase the pain sensitivity of a NP mouse model and promote the development of NP.

Abstract
The presence of differential metabolic risks between the metabolically-protective subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and the disease-associated visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is well established, but the mechanisms that cause these differences are not well understood. Cyclic AMP responsive element binding protein 3-like 3 (CREB3L3), a previously characterized liver-specific ER-bound transcription factor, was found to be expressed in murine SAT and VAT. In obese human subjects and an obese mouse model, we found that CREB3L3 is downregulated in SAT, but not in VAT. To examine the role of CREB3L3 in adipocyte biology and metabolism, we created a fat-specific CREB3L3 knockout (KO) mouse using the AdipoQ-Cre mouse. To establish a potential role for CREB3L3 in adipocytes, we examined in vitro differentiated adipocytes from isolated WT and KO primary stromal vascular fraction. We observed that ablation of CREB3L3 in SAT adipocytes significantly upregulated expression of both lipogenic and lipolytic markers. At the same time, we also observed significantly increased expression of thermogenic markers like PGC1α and Cox8b. Taken together our data suggest potential upregulation of the fat futile cycle in SAT upon deletion of CREB3L3. Surprisingly, we found that CREB3L3 KO tends to downregulate expression of markers of both lipogenesis and lipolysis in VAT adipocytes. This observation could potentially be contributed by the tendency of CREB3l3 KO VAT to have inhibited differentiation. To investigate the in vivo function of CREB3L3, we challenged WT and KO mice with high fat diet with weekly body weight assessment. We observed that CREB3L3 ablation in adipose tissues promotes significant weight gain in mice on HFD. Unexpectedly, despite being heavier, the KO mice are not more glucose intolerant or insulin resistant. These data together suggest that ablation of CREB3L3 could potentially promote fat storage in adipose tissues to prevent metabolic diseases caused by ectopic fat deposition.

Abstract
HMG CoA reductase inhibition suppresses in vitro HCV replication through depletion of cellular sterol proteins such as geranylgeraniol. Our aims were to prospectively evaluate the changes in serum and lipid fraction HCV RNA with Rosuvastatin in non-responder (NR) patients with CHC. A total of 11 patients with CHC genotype-1 received Rosuvastatin at 20 mg qd (weeks 0-4), 40 mg qd (weeks 5-12), with 4 week follow up. Lipid fractions were separated by a sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, HCV RNA determined at wks 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16 in serum, and in selected very low- (VLDF) to high-density (HDF) lipid fractions. A reduction in LDL and total cholesterol (TC) was not accompanied by significant decline in HCV RNA. At baseline, there was an inverse correlation between HDL and HCV RNA (ρ = -0.45, P = 0.036). At 20 mg, there was correlation between change (Δ) in TG and Δ HCV RNA (ρ = 0.75, P = 0.007), Δ ALT and Δ TC (ρ = -0.64, P = 0.03) and Δ LDL (ρ = -0.67, P = 0.02). At 40 mg, Δ TG maintained a positive correlation with Δ HCV RNA (ρ = 0.65, P = 0.03). There was a group difference for HCV RNA in relation to lipid fractions (P = 0.04) but not study time intervals (P = 0.17); mean log HCV RNA was greater in VLDF compared to HDF (5.81 ± 0.59 vs 5.06 ± 0.67, P = 0.0002) with no other differences to study time intervals (P = 0.099). Short-term Rosuvastatin monotherapy is not associated with significant changes in serum or lipid fraction HCV RNA in NR patients. HCV co-localizes with the lowest density lipid fractions in serum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) provides a minimally invasive means to resect small pulmonary nodules (SPN). However, thoracoscopy has limits in the detection of small nodules, which are invisible and/or impalpable during surgery. Methods to localize such lesions, including methylene blue injection or the introduction of a hookwire under the guidance of computed tomography (CT), have some limitations. We are developing a new technique using image-guided navigation system for localization of small pulmonary nodules before thoracoscopic surgery. METHODS Four pigs underwent spiral-computed tomography (CT) scanning after they were given percutaneously created pulmonary lesions. The CT data were transmitted to a StealthStation navigation system, and with the help of the probe the lesions were located and resected under thoracoscopy. RESULTS A total of 20 lesions were created. Nodules were located at an average distance of 15.6 mm from the pleural surface. All the lesions were successfully localized, and biopsy specimens revealed successful resection of target material. CONCLUSION This method can provide appropriate guidance to small pulmonary nodules and prove effective in immediately facilitating subsequent thoracoscopic resection.

Abstract
Neonatal screening for phenylketonuria (PKU) in Mainland China was started late and is incomplete. At the present time, it only covers 1-2% of the whole nation. There are about 1,500-2,000 PKU patients born in China annually. In this study, 228 PKU patients who were followed in our hospital were reviewed. Only 19 (8.3%) patients were detected by neonatal screening. Two hundred and nine (91.7%) cases were defined by pediatricians at the age of 1 month to 22 years, among them 94.5% had mental retardation, 48.9% developed epilepsy, and 22.9% gave up the treatment because of financial difficulty and loss of confidence in recovery. To help all of the patients, the only feasible way is the popularization of nationwide screening.
