RESUMO

AIM: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by macrophage polarization, and at present, no drug therapy is available. Although grape-seed polyphenols (GSP) showed an anti-AAA effect, the role of GSP in the phenotype shift in macrophages remains unknown. METHOD: The main phenolic compounds in GSP were determined by LC-MS. Male C57BL/6 mice were divided into four equal groups, namely sham group, CaPO4 group, CaPO4+GSP low-dose group, and CaPO4+GSP high-dose group. GSP was administered intragastrically after CaPO4 application. Molecular expressions were histologically evaluated and analyzed by various staining assays and FACS. RESULTS: GSP administration inhibited CaPO4-induced AAA formation, which correlated with a decrease in macrophage infiltration and retainment of vascular smooth muscle layer as compared to those in the CaPO4 group. FACS assay showed that the GSP administration dose-dependently decreased the CD54 expression (low-dose group: 11.4 ± 2.1 % and high-dose group: 4.8 ± 1.4 % vs 23.2 ± 3.6 %; p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively) and increased the CD206 expression of F4/80-positive cells in GSP-administered groups as compared with that in CaPO4-injured aortas in the CaPO4 group (low-dose group: 22.4 ± 3.3 % and high-dose group: 26.7 ± 4.2 % vs 8.1 ± 1.3 %; p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: GSP could be a pharmacologically potent agent in the treatment of AAA (Tab. 1, Fig. 3,Ref. 20).

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the association between long-term low-dose radiation exposure and other influencing factors with the risk of lens opacity on medical radiation workers. Methods: In July 2019, a retrospective cohort study was conducted by collecting the basic demographic information, dose data and health inspection result of 2708 radiologists in 22 hospitals of Guangzhou from the Occupational Health Inspection Information System and the Personal Dose Monitoring System of the Guangdong Prevention and Treatment Center for Occupational Disease between 2010 to 2018. The association between the average annual effective dose and lens opacity risk was calculated by using Time-Dependent Cox Regression Model. Results: From 2010 to 2018, the incidence density of lens opacity was 185.90/10000 person years. Compared with the radiation workers in the age <30 years group (93.74%) , the 5-year normal rate of lens in the age ≥50 years group (72.51%) was lower (P<0.01) ; Compared with the radiation workers in the exposure age <10 years group (92.69%) , the 5-year normal rate of lens in more than 20 years exposed group (83.05%) was lower (P<0.01) . Multifactor analysis showed that age was an independent influencing factor for lens opacity in medical radiation workers (HR=14.485, P<0.01) . The risk of lens opacification increased by 4.9%, 10.1% and 15.5% in 30-, 40- and 50-years group, respectively. Gender, cigarette, alchol, type of work, length of service and annual effective dose had no significant effect on lens opacity (P>0.05) . Conclusion: Age is the main influencing factor of lens opacification in medical radiation workers, their radiation working time and intensity should be strictly controlled and radiation protection should be done.

RESUMO

Cadmium sulfide nanoparticles (CdS NPs) are one of important nanoparticle materials which are widely used in photoelectric production, but their potential health hazard to the liver is not clear. This study is aimed at exploring the possible mechanisms of liver injury induced by CdS NPs. Male mice were treated with nanoparticles of 110-130 nm and 80-100 nm cadmium sulfide. The main methods were based on detecting the vigor of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH), and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in both blood and liver tissues as well as on observing the pathological changes in liver tissue. CdS NPs suppressed the activity of SOD and GSH, and increased the serum MDA content (p < 0.05); both effects were observed together in liver tissues of 80-100 nm group (p < 0.05) and were accompanied by an obviously inflammatory response. CdS NPs induced oxidative damage and inflammatory response in liver tissue, which may be an underlying mechanism for its pulmonary toxicity. Additionally, the toxicity of CdS NPs was closely related to the size of nanoparticles. Pathological results showed that the hepatotoxicity of shorter CdS NPs is greater than that of longer CdS NPs (Tab. 6, Fig. 3, Ref. 20).
