ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the role pathway and pattern of the myeloma cancer gene (MYC) and its mRNA interaction with the microRNAs(miRNAs) and circular RNA(circRNAs) at hour 0, hour 6 and hour 72 in the rat liver regeneration. Methods The rat 2/3 hepatectomy (PH) model was prepared as described by Higgins, the hepatocytes were isolated according to the method of Smedsrod et al. The expression changes of mRNA, miRNA and circRNA [together named as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA)] were detected by the large-scale quantitative detection technology, the interaction network of ceRNA was constructed by Cytoscape 3.2 software, and their correlation in expression and role were analyzed by ceRNA comprehensive analysis. Results It was found that at hour 0 and hour 6 after PH, the ratio value of MYC mRNA showed 0.15±0.03 and 2.36±0.20, miR-134-5p indicated 3.22±0.61 and 0.08±0.02, circRNA_12112 displayed 0.68±0.21 and 13.35±3.53. At the same time, the cell cycle initiation-related genes ras association domain family member 1 (RASSF1), cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), which were promoted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated at hour 0 after PH, but the cell cycle initiation-related genes nestin (NES), RAD21 cohesin complex component (RAD21), CUE domain containing 2 (CUEDC2), which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, had no meaningful express changes at hour 0 after PH. On the other hand, the cell cycle initiation-related gene SOD2, which was promoted in expression by MYC, was up-regulated at hour 6 after PH, but the cell cycle initiation-related genes NES, RAD21, CUEDC2, which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated at hour 6 after PH. In contrary, at hour 72 after PH, the ratio value of MYC mRNA showed 2.36±0.20, miR-880-3p indicated 0.54±0.01, circRNA_09599 displayd 0.54±0.16. At the same time, the cell cycle termination-related gene hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which is promoted in expression by MYC, was up-regulated 72 hours after PH, the cell cycle termination-related genes MET proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase (MET) and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (CDKN1A), which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated 72 hours after PH. Conclusion The correlation in expression and role of the miRNAs, which are inhibited by circRNAs, MYC, its mRNA is inhibited by miRNAs, and the cell cycle initiation-related and cell cycle termination-related genes, which are regulated by MYC, are helpful for the hepatocyte to be in cell cycle initiation state at hour 6 after PH and to be in cell cycle termination state at hour 72 after PH.

ABSTRACT
Objective This study aims to investigate the expression profile and regulatory effect on cell proliferation of circular RNA(circRNA) in rat liver regeneration (LR). Methods CircRNA expression profile during rat LR of 114 rats ' regenerating liver which induced by 2/3 partial hepatectomy was detected by high-throughput sequencing. MiRanda and TargetScan were performed to predict their target microRNA (miRNAs) and mRNAs. Gene Ontology (GO) and IP A were used to analyze the physiological activities and signaling pathways they involved. Cytoscape v3. 0. 2 was used to construct the interaction network. Finally, the candidate key circRNAs were selected by the expression pattern combining with the number and function of target miRNAs. Results 20 878 circRNAs were detected during rat LR, among which 560 of them were differentially expressed, and 126 of them could bind to 117 target miRNAs, which were in turn to regulate 6510 downstream target mRNAs. They were involved in cell proliferation, stress response, substance metabolism and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), protein kinase A (PKA), Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathways. 6 differential expressed circRNAs, including circRNA_03651, circRNA_03653, circRNA_04500, circRNA_05865, circRNA_l 1274 and circRNA_ 13559 might play a pivotal role in cell proliferation involved in rat LR by regulating 12 miRNAs and 15 mRNAs. Resultsing they were regarded as the candidate key circRNAs of rat LR. Conclusion 560 circRNAs were differentially expressed in rat LR, among which circRNA_03651, circRNA_03653, circRNA_04500, circRNA_05865, circRNA_l 1274 and circRNA_13559 might play a crucial role on cell proliferation involved in rat LR via 12 miRNAs-15 mRNAs axis.
ABSTRACT
Urinary retention is a frequent-encountered complication after gynaecological surgery. It affects the postoperative recovery and decreases the life quality of patients. In recent years, extensive researches on causes and treatments of postoperative urinary retention are carried out in clinic. And it is approved that acupuncture treatment, which includes body needling, moxibustion, combination of acupuncture and moxibustion, acupoint injection and medication plasters, has reliable effects and less side-effects. Acupuncture treatment on postoperative urinary retention keeps developing and innovating. And it is held to have better effect when compare with western medicine.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the reductive effect of ornidazole on sperm motility in rats and its mechanism of action.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty rats were randomly divided into three groups, a low dosage group (LD group, n = 5), a high dosage group (HD group, n = 8) and a normal control group (n = 7). Ornidazole (200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg) was given to the LD and HD groups, and 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC) administered to the normal control, all for 20 consecutive days. Immediately after, sperm density, motility and the morphological changes of the testis and epidiclymis were measured, and the concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alpha-glycosidase, malondialdehyde (MDA) and fructose in the testis and epididymis tissues were monitored.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the normal control, there were no obvious changes in sperm density (P > 0.05), but a significant decrease in sperm motility in the LD and HD groups (P < 0.01), and the concentration of LDH obviously declined (P < 0.01) while that of MDA distinctly increased in the HD group (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Spermatogenic cells could be damaged by the increase of inhibiting MDA, while sperm motility could be decreased by inhibiting energetic transferase or non-protein substance in the epididymis. This might be one of the mechanisms of ornidazole on weak sperm models in rats.</p>
