The construction and its implication of the cancer life-cycle prevention and control system in Japan / 中国卫生政策研究

As the country with the largest number of new cancer cases and deaths,China faces a serious situation with a large cancer population base,low relative survival rate,and low adherence to cancer screening.Neighboring Japan,which has the longest life expectancy in the world,has a much higher relative survival rate than China,despite having a similarly high cancer rate,due to its well-established system of cancer prevention and control.Being an Asian country,the major prevalent cancers in China and Japan are similar in spectrum and can be referred to more.This article introduces the construction of Japan's cancer life-cycle prevention and control system of"cancer prevention","cancer care",and"coexistence with cancer"starting from the three major goals of Japan's cancer prevention and control program,and focuses on the improvement of cancer screening in Japan and the improvement of cancer survival in China.It also highlights the means and methods used to increase the cancer screening rate in Japan,with a view to providing suggestions for cancer prevention and control in China.

Association between parental control, peer relationship and aggressive behavior in junior high school students / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To understand the interrelationships of parental control, peer relationship, and aggressive behavior in junior high school students, in order to provide a theoretical basis for preventing the occurrence of adolescent aggressive behavior.@*Methods@#During June to July, 2022, 2 564 students of grade one to grade three were selected from 6 junior high schools from each of Suzhou and Xuancheng cities in Anhui Province by using convenient cluster random sampling method, and then the questionnaire survey was administered, including the Chinese version of Parent Control Questionnaire, Chinese version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire and Adolescent Peer Relationship Questionnaire.@*Results@#Boys scored (185.31±27.49, 21.65±7.43, 21.77 ±8.18, 69.50±11.41, 72.39±11.53) higher than girls (178.21±25.13, 20.08±7.09, 20.61±7.62, 66.56± 11.14 , 70.95± 11.84 ) in parental control, father s psychological control, mother s psychological control, father s behavioral control, and mother s behavioral control ( t =8.63, 5.47, 3.70, 6.60, 3.12), while girls scored (48.41±11.26) higher in peer relationship than boys ( 47.13 ± 10.84 ) ( t =-2.95) ( P <0.01). The scores of first grade students in parental control, father s psychological control, mother s psychological control, father s behavior control, peer relationship, and aggressive behavior (184.67±27.18, 21.83± 7.29 , 22.15±8.07, 68.81±10.95, 50.21±9.57, 80.23±17.66) were higher than those of second gradestudents (180.98±25.46, 20.16±7.82, 20.21±7.55, 68.29±11.69, 45.47±11.67, 74.08±17.70) and third grade students (179.21±26.79, 20.53±7.22, 21.17 ± 8.06 , 66.81± 11.39 , 47.54±11.43, 75.75±16.29) ( F =9.44, 12.87, 13.61, 6.84, 42.85, 30.40, P <0.01). The scores of parental control and peer relationship were positively correlated with the scores of aggressive behavior ( r=0.22, 0.47, P <0.01). Peer relationship partially mediate the relationship between parental control and aggressive behavior, with a partial mediation effect value of 0.04, accounting for 26.39% of the total effect of parental control on aggressive behavior.@*Conclusions@#High parental control and poor peer relationship are both positively correlated with the level of aggressive behavior. The peer relationship of teenagers should be improved by establishing appropriate parenting style, tackling campus violence, and maintaining good social norms, in order to reduce the occurrence of aggressive behavior among adolescents.

lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 affects the proliferation and apoptosis of retinal epithelial cells induced by high glucose through miR-19a-3p/TSHZ3 / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM: To investigate whether long-chain non-coding RNA(lncRNA)KCNQ1OT1 affects the proliferation, apoptosis and oxidative stress of retinal epithelial cells induced by high glucose(HG)through miR-19a-3p/TSHZ3. <p>METHODS: Cell counting kit 8(CCK-8)was used to detect the cell viability of human retinal epithelial cells ARPE-19 stimulated with 5, 15, 45, 135mmol/L HG. The ARPE-19 cells were divided into NC group, 45mmol/L HG group, si-NC+45mmol/L HG group, si-lncRNA KCNQ1OT1+45mmol/L HG group, miR-NC+45mmol/L HG group, miR-19a-3p mimics+45mmol/L HG group, si-con+45mmol/L HG group, si-TSHZ3+45mmol/L HG group, pcDNA+si-lncRNA KCNQ1OT1+45mmol/L HG group, pcDNA-TSHZ3+si-lncRNA KCNQ1OT1+45mmol/L HG group. CCK-8 was used to detect cell viability, qRT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1, miR-19a-3p and TSHZ3 mRNA, Western Blot was used to detect TSHZ3, activation-cysteine-containing aspartate proteolytic enzyme 3(Cleaved-caspase-3), B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2(Bcl-2)related X protein(Bax)protein expressions, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the levels of oxidative stress indicators reactive oxygen species(ROS)and malondialdehyde(MDA). The dual luciferase activity was used to detect the targeted binding between lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 and miR-19a-3p, miR-19a-3p and TSHZ3. <p>RESULTS: 15, 45, 135mmol/L HG inhibited the survival rate of ARPE-19 cells, and the subsequent select the HG concentration 45mmol/L with a cell survival rate of about 50%. 45mmol/L HG increased the expression levels of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1, TSHZ3 mRNA, TSHZ3 protein, the apoptosis rate, Cleaved-caspase-3 and Bax protein expressions, ROS and MDA levels in ARPE-19 cells, and reduced cell survival rate and the expression level of miR-19a-3p(<i>P</i><0.05). Low expression of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1, TSHZ3 or high expression of miR-19a-3p improved the survival rate of ARPE-19 cells induced by HG, and reduced apoptosis rate, Cleaved-caspase-3 and Bax protein expressions, ROS and MDA levels(<i>P</i><0.05). lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 targeted miR-19a-3p, miR-19a-3p targeted TSHZ3, and lncRNA KCNQ1OT13 regulated the expression of TSHZ3 through miR-19a-3p. The effect of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 low expression on the survival rate, apoptosis and oxidative stress of ARPE-19 cells induced by HG was reversed by the overexpression of TSHZ3.<p>CONCLUSION: The low expression of lncRNA KCNQ1OT13 promotes the proliferation of retinal epithelial cells induced by high glucose, and inhibits their apoptosis and oxidative stress through miR-19a-3p/TSHZ3.

Study on effect of Jiangtang decoction on AGEs-RAGE and oxidative stress in KK-Ay mice / 中国中药杂志

To elucidate the efficacy of Jiangtang decoction(JTD) on AGEs-RAGE and oxidative stress in type 2 diabetic model KK-Ay mice. Fifty KK-Ay mice were randomly divided into 5 groups as follows： model group, metformin group, low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose of JTD group, with 10 C57BL/6J as normal group. All groups are orally administrated with equal distilled water, 250 mg•kg⁻¹ metformin hydrochloride, 2, 4,8 g•kg⁻¹ JTD, equal distilled water respectively, once per day for 12 weeks. Alanine aminotransferase(ALT), creatinine(CREA), urea nitrogen(BUN),advanced glycation end products(AGEs) and receptor of glycation end products(RAGE) in blood or urine were measured during the experiments. Furthermore, on the day of the sacrifice, kidney was collected, and electronic microscopy and immunohistochemistry were performed to evaluate the protective renal effect of JTD. In addition, the levels of AGEs, RAGE, Cata-lase(CAT) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) were assessed by Western blot, Real-time PCR or ELISA to analyze the efficacy of JTD. This study demonstrated that JTD might protect kidney of KK-Ay by down-regulating the expression of AGEs, RAGE and oxidative stress.

Research progress in hypoglycemic effect and mechanism of heat-clearing and detoxifying Chinese materia medica / 中草药

Treating DM with heat-clearing and detoxifying principle on the basis of syndrome differentiation proves to be effective. Heat-clearing and detoxifying Chinese materia medica can decrease blood sugar by protecting islet β-cell, improving insulin resistance, regulating glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism, regulating GLP-1, inflammatory cytokines, and intestinal microflora.

Relationship between autophagy and T2DM and intervention effect of traditional Chinese medicine / 中国中药杂志

Insulin resistance and insulin secretion deficiency are main machanisms in inducing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and mitochondria damage plays an important role in them. Research shows that autophagy is a self-protective mechanism of cells, which plays an important role in maintaining the normal structure and function of pancreatic β cells and improving insulin resistance. Previous studies show that traditional Chinese medicine can regulate cell autophagy to influence β cells and insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus and its complications. Thus this review will talk about the process of the relationship between autophagy and T2DM and the intervention effect of traditional Chinese medicine.

Germ cell sex prior to meiosis in the rainbow trout

Germ cells make two major decisions when they move from an indeterminate state to their final stage of gamete production. One decision is sexual commitment for sperm or egg production, and the other is to maintain mitotic division or entry into meiosis. It is unclear whether the two decisions are made as a single event or separate events, because there has been no evidence for the presence of germ cell sex prior to meiosis. Here we report direct evidence in the fish rainbow trout that gonia have distinct sexuality. We show that dazl expression occurs in both male and female gonia but exhibits differential intracellular distribution. More strikingly, we show that boule is highly expressed in male gonia but absent in female gonia. Therefore, mitotic gonia possess sex, sperm/egg decision and mitosis/meiosis decision are two independent events, and sperm/egg decision precedes mitosis/meiosis decision in rainbow trout, making this organism a unique vertebrate model for mechanistic understanding of germ cell sex differentiation and relationship between the two decisions.

Production of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against citrus tristeza virus and their efficiency for the detection of the virus / 生物工程学报

Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was purified from a citrus sample by a modified protocol, and the yield was about 1 mg from 100 g citrus tissues. Polyclonal antibody was prepared by immunizing rabbits with the purified CTV preparation with a titer 1:25600 in indirect ELISA test. Eighteen hybridoma-cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against CTV were screened after the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (SP2/0) with spleen cells from BALB/c immunized with the virus preparation. Four hybridoma-cell lines were selected randomly for later analysis. The results indicated that the titers of ascetic fluids against these hybridoma cell lines ranged from 1:51200 to 1:204800 in indirect ELISA, and their isotypes and subclasses were IgG2a for 2G and 3H and IgG2b for IE and 4H. These four Mabs were used to detect CTV in citrus samples in different sources. Results showed that TAS-ELISA with polyclonal antibody as trapping antibody and monoclonal antibody as testing antibody had a higher specificity and sensitivity than PAS-ELISA. Four Mabs showed different intensities of serological reaction with different CTV isolates. However, much work remains for realizing the characteristics and the serological relationships among these isolates.
