ObjectiveTo explore the mediating effect of personality traits between job stress and mental symptoms among firefighters. Methods A total of 974 firefighters in Shandong Province were selected as the research subjects using convenience sampling method. The Job Stress Scale, Brief Version of Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory and Symptom Checklist 90 were used to investigate their job stress, personality traits and mental symptoms. Results Job stress was found at a relatively high level in 39.7% of the firefighters, and 19.2% of the firefighters had high level of neurotic personality trait tendency. The positive detection rate of mental symptoms was 9.9% among firefighters. The score of job stress of the firefighters had a positive correlation with neuroticism and the score of mental symptoms (all P<0.01). The score of job stress and mental symptoms of the firefighters had a negative correlation with the personality traits score of extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness (all P<0.05). Neuroticism played a partially positive mediating effect between job stress and mental symptoms, and its mediating effect accounted for 39.6% of the total effect. Extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness played a partially negative mediating effect between work stress and mental symptoms, and the mediating effect accounted for 12.0%, 17.8% and 8.4% of the total effect respectively. There was no mediating effect of openness between job stress and mental symptoms. Conclusion Neurotic personality trait may enhance the negative effects of work stress on firefighters' mental health.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of gastrogin on AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/transient receptor potential anchor protein 1 (TRPA1) signaling pathway in rats with neuropathic pain.Methods:Thirty-six SPF-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 200-230 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: sham operation+ normal saline group (SHAM group), neuropathic pain+ normal saline group (NP group), and neuropathic pain+ gastrogin group (GAS group). Neuropathic pain was induced by chronic constrictive injury to sciatic nerve under 2% isoflurane anaesthesia. The sciatic nerve was only exposed but not ligated in SHAM group. Gastrogin 100 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected for 14 consecutive days after developing the model in GAS group, while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in SHAM and NP groups. The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured at 1 day before developing the model (T 0) and 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 days after developing the model (T 1-6). The rats were anesthetized and sacrificed following the measurement of pain thresholds at T 4 and T 6. The lumbar segment (L 4-6) of the spinal cord was removed for determination of TRPA1 mRNA expression (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction), expression of TRPA1, AMPK and p-AMPK (by Western blot), expression of TRPA1 (by immunofluorescence staining) and expression of tumor necrosis-alpha(TNF-α), interleukin-1beta(IL-1β) and c-fos (by immunohistochemistry). Results:Compared with SHAM group, MWT and TWL were significantly decreased at T 1-6, the expression of TRPA1 mRNA, TRPA1, TNF-α, IL-1β and c-fos was up-regulated, the expression of p-AMPK was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in AMPK expression in NP group ( P>0.05). Compared with NP group, MWT at T 3-6 and TWL at T 2-6 were significantly increased, the expression of TRPA1 mRNA, TRPA1, TNF-α, IL-1β and c-fos was down-regulated, and p-AMPK expression was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in AMPK expression in GAS group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which gastrogin reduces neuropathic pain may be related to modulating the expression of the AMPK/TRPA1 signaling pathway in rats.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of bronchial asthma (BA) complicated with recurrent respiratory tract infection (RRTI) in children in Hebei District, Tianjin City, and to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of children with BA complicated with RRTI. Methods The stratified cluster sampling method was adopted to randomly select 428 children with BA hospitalized in Hebei District of Tianjin as the study subjects. The routine deep sputum culture and etiological examination were carried out. The children with RRTI were included in the experimental group (n=84), and the children without RRTI (n=344) were included in the control group. A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate gender, age, smoking proportion of family members, use of antibiotics 3 times or more a year, and family history of allergy. The risk factors of BA combined with RRTI were analyzed by logistic regression. Results RRTI occurred in 84 of 428 children with BA, and the incidence rate was 19.63% (84/428). The proportion of BA complicated with RRTI in children aged 6 months to 2 years was higher than that in other age groups (χ2=6.213, P0.05). The proportion of family smoking, the use of antibiotics 3 times or more a year, and the proportion of family allergy history in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that family smoking, antibiotic use 3 times or more a year and family history of allergy were independent risk factors for BA complicated with RRTI (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence of BA complicated with RRTI in children in Hebei District, Tianjin City is high, and the age of high incidence is 6 months to 2 years old. The proportion of family smoking, the use of antibiotics three times or more a year, and the proportion of family allergy history are the high-risk factors for the occurrence of BA complicated with RRTI in children in Hebei District, Tianjin City.

Objective:To investigate the role of Sestrin2 overexpression in regulating mitochondrial fission and its mechanism in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell model of glucose and oxygen deprivation/recovery (OGD/R). Methods:(1) SH-SY5Y cells were divided into normal control group, OGD/R group, Vector group, and Sestrin2 overexpression group; Sestrin2 overexpression or empty vector stable cell lines in the Sestrin2 overexpression group and Vector group were constructed by lentivirus infection; cells in the later 3 groups were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 4 h followed by restoration of O 2 supply for 18 h. The cell survival rate was detected by cell counting kit (CCK)-8 assay. The protein levels of Sestrin2, dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1 (Fis1), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), Kelch-like ECH-related protein 1 (Keap1) in the cytoplasm and nuclear factor E2-related factor (Nrf2) in the nucleus were detected by Western blotting. The mitochondria ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscope. The Nrf2 nuclear translocation was detected by immunofluorescence staining. (2) Cell lines with Sestrin2 overexpression were divided into Sestrin2 overexpression group, Brusatol+ Sestrin2 overexpression group, and DMSO+ Sestrin2 overexpression group. Cells in the Brusatol+ Sestrin2 overexpression group were pretreated with normal medium containing Brusatol (Keap1/Nrf2 pathway inhibitor, final concentration: 100 nmol/L) for 4 h before OGD/R; cells in the DMSO+ Sestrin2 group were pretreated with normal medium containing DMSO (final volume fraction: 0.1%) for 4 h before OGD/R. Cells in these groups were then subjected to OGD for 4 h followed by restoration of O 2 supply for 18 h. The protein levels of Drp1, Fis1, Keap1 in the cytoplasm, and Nrf2 in the nucleus were measured by Western blotting. Results:(1) As compared with those in the OGD/R group, cells in the Sestrin2 overexpression group had significantly increased survival rate (61.33%±1.15% vs. 81.00%±3.00%), significantly up-regulated Bcl-2/Bax ratio (0.467±0.006 vs. 0.880±0.010), significantly decreased Drp1, Fis1 and cytoplasmic Keap1 protein levels (1.089±0.033 vs. 0.865±0.014; 0.829±0.009 vs. 0.350±0.007; 0.967±0.017 vs. 0.881±0.024), and significantly up-regulated nuclear Nrf2 protein level (0.627±0.025 vs. 0.957±0.015, P<0.05). The mitochondrial structure in the Sestrin2 overexpression group under electron microscope was more complete than that in the OGD/R group, and obvious nuclear translocation of Nrf2 was noted. (2) As compared with the Sestrin2 overexpression group, Brusatol+ Sestrin2 overexpression group had significantly decreased nuclear Nrf2 protein level (0.920±0.013 vs. 0.627±0.035), and statistically increased Drp1 and Fis1 protein levels (0.994±0.020 vs. 1.084±0.005; 0.728±0.010 vs. 0.906±0.022, P<0.05). Conclusion:Sestrin2 overexpression could suppress mitochondrial fission, reduce cell apoptosis, and attenuate OGD/R injury of SH-SY5Y cells by activating Keap1/Nrf2 pathway via down-regulating cytoplasmic Keap1 protein level and promoting Nrf2 nuclear translocation.

BACKGROUND: Both abnormal permeability of ionic channel and disturbance of ionic balance between inside and outside nerve cell are key factors for ischemic brain injury after ischemia. Depolarization induced by activation of sodium channel is starting link for cerebral ischemic injury.OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of droperidol on persistent sodium channel currents of pyramidal cell in hippocampal CA1 area of rats with cerebral ischemia with patch clamp technique so as to analyze whether droperidol can protect cerebral ischemic injury.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Department of Anesthesiology of the Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University and Department of Anesthesiology of the First People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out at the Department of Anesthesiology of the First People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University from April 2002 to April 2003. Totally 14 SD rats, aging 10-14days, without ablactation, were selected. Two cells in hippocampal CA1area of each rat were collected, totally 28 cells were divided into 4 groups:ischemic control group, 3 μmol/L droperidol group, 10 μmol/L droperidol group and 30 μmol/L droperidol group, with 7 cells in each group.METHODS: Pyramidal cells in hippocampal CA1 area were separated with digested enzyme method, and ischemic model of neuron was established through hypoxia and no sugar method. Cells were selected with the following conclusion criteria: well adherent wall, triangle or starry shape,bright soma, well refraction, obvious apophysis, steady plasma, and transparent nucleolus. Y-tube system was used for rapid medication. 3, 10 and 30 μmol/L droperidol were given to rats in 3, 10 and 30 μmol/L droperidols respectively, but rats in ischemic control group were not given any medicine. Whole-cell patch-clamp was used to recorded basic value of persistent sodium currents and changes of sodium channel currents during 3-minute and 5-minute ischemia.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Record of normal persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area; ② Record of persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area during cerebral ischemia; ③ Effect of droperidol in various concentrations on persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area during cerebral ischemia.RESULTS: Totally 28 cells in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area of 14 rats were entered the final analysis. ① Record of normal persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area: 0.5 mmol/L CdCl2 calcium channel blocking agent and 20 mmol/L TEA kalium channel blocking agent were used to perform 400 ms square-wave stimulation under -105 mV claw voltage and -30 mV stimulated voltage. Introversion current,slight, late activation and lasting for a long time, was recorded and deter mined as persistent sodium currents by blocking toxin of puffer fish. ② Record of persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area during cerebral ischemia: After 3-minute ischemia, persistent sodium currents in ischemic control group was increased as (1.60±0.21) times as that in normal group, and was (2.87 ±0.45) times after 5-minute ischemia. The difference was significant (P < 0.05). ③ Effect of droperidol at various concentrations on persistent sodium current of neuron in cerebral hippocampal CA1 area during cerebral ischemia: Basic values of persistent sodium currents were (77.42±15.17) pA, (87.44±21.56) pA, (84.13±20.06) pA and (80.22±19.30) pA in ischemic control, 3, 10 and 30 μmol/L droperidol groups respectively, and the differences among groups were not significant. After 5-minute ischemia, values of persistent sodium currents were (105.36±17.16) pA, (94.74±18.88) pA and (84.88±13.94) pA in 3, 10 and 30 μmol/L droperidol groups respectively, which were obviously lower than that in the ischemic control group (218.31±29.34) pA.CONCLUSION: Persistent sodium currents increase under -105 mV claw voltage and -30 mV stimulated voltage during cerebral ischemic injury. Droperi dol can protect neuron by inhibiting the increase of persistent sodium current.
