ABSTRACT

Background The presence of formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, toluene, and xylene in indoor air of public places has been confirmed to cause health damage. The employees of barber and beauty shops are exposed to relatively enclosed space for a long time, and could surfer more serious health risks from indoor air chemical pollutants. Objective To analyze the concentrations of common indoor air chemical pollutants in barber shops and beauty salons in Liaocheng City, and explore potential health risks of the pollutants for employees. Methods Using a stratified randomized sampling method, 8 to 10 barber shops and 5 to 10 beauty salons were selected in the main urban area of Liaocheng City to conduct monitoring of the sanitary conditions of public places in winter and summer every year from 2016 to 2021; the indoor air concentrations of formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, toluene, and xylene in the selected sites were measured, and a questionnaire survey was conducted to collect exposure characteristics of indoor pollutants. The concentration distributions of the five chemical pollutants were obtained from the monitoring data for 6 consecutive years, and the health risk assessment model recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was used to perform health risk assessment of inhalation exposure. Results In 2016–2021, the median indoor air concentrations of formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, toluene, and xylene in the two types of sites were lower than the limits of Hygienic Indicators and Limits for Public Places (GB 37488-2019), but the concentrations of some monitoring sites were higher than the limits. The disqualification rates of the five pollutants in the barber shops were 16.8%, 2.7%, 2.4%, 6.4%, and 12.0%, respectively. The disqualification rate of formaldehyde was the highest in all pollutants (22.0%), while the disqualification rates of ammonia, toluene, and xylene were 1.3%, 2.0%, and 2.0% in beauty salons respectively. Both formaldehyde and benzene were found to have carcinogenic risks (CR) in the two types of public places. Both median values of CR were greater than 1.0×10−6, and both maximum values were greater than 1.0×10−4. Formaldehyde had the highest non-carcinogenic risk in the indoor air of barber shops and beauty salons. The median non-carcinogenic hazard quotients (HQ) of formaldehyde were both greater than 1, and the maximum values were 16.72 and 12.19 times of the standard value; ammonia and toluene had the lowest non-carcinogenic risks, and their maximum values of HQ were less than 1; the median HQs of benzene and xylene were far less than 1, but their maximum risk values of barber shop were greater than 1. Conclusion For the sake of worker's health, formaldehyde and benzene should be the indoor air pollutant control priority for barber shops and beauty salons in Liaocheng; formaldehyde poses the most serious health hazard to practitioners and should be given high attention and necessary measures to reduce the hazard; benzene poses certain carcinogenic risks, with some of its highest values exceeding 10−4, which is higher than the recommended safety threshold.

ABSTRACT

Background A number of studies have shown that heavy metals in atmospheric PM2.5 have impacts on human health, while studies on the impact of long-term and low-concentration exposure to lead in PM2.5 on human health are limited. Objective To investigate the pollution characteristics of lead in ambient PM2.5 and assess its chronic health risks. Methods Daily PM2.5 concentration data in Jinan from 2014 to 2019 were collected, and the year-by-year trend of PM2.5 concentration was analyzed. Licheng District (an industrial area) and Shizhong District (a residential area) were elected to install an ambient PM2.5 monitoring stationrespectively. The sampling instrument was a 100 L·min−1 high-flow PM2.5 sampler, with a cumulative sampling time of 20-24 h per day, using a quartz fiber filter membrane for lead detection and a glass fiber filter membrane for PM2.5 determination. The sampling frequency was 7 consecutive days per month from the 10th to the 16th (A total of 493 d were sampled and some were missing; 172 d during the heating period and 321 d during the non-heating period). Two PM2.5 samples were collected in one monitoring site each day. A total of 986 samples were collected in one monitoring site. The lead content in PM2.5 samples was detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The concentration of PM2.5 was measured by weighing method. The annual average concentration and enrichment factor of lead in PM2.5, the change trend of lead content per unit mass of PM2.5, and the difference between heating period and non-heating period from 2014 to 2019 were estimated. Technical guide for environment health risk assessment of chemical exposure (WS/T 777-2021) was used to assess the health risks of exposure to lead in PM2.5. Results The average annual concentration of lead in PM2.5 ranged from 23.2 ng·m−3 to 154.7 ng·m−3. The average concentration in heating period from 2015 to 2019 was higher than that in non-heating period, and the differences in 2015, 2017, and 2019 were statistically significant (P < 0.01 or 0.001). The enrichment factors ranged from 200 to 1342 in 2014 to 2019. The average enrichment factors in heating period in 2015, 2017, and 2018 was higher than those in non-heating period, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05 or 0.001). The lead contents per unit mass of PM2.5 ranged from 493 ng·mg−1 to 1944 ng·mg−1, and the differences between heating period and non-heating period in 2014, 2017, and 2018 were statistically significant (P < 0.05 or 0.001). The average annual concentration and enrichment factor of lead in PM2.5 showed a downward trend, and thus the lead content per unit mass of PM2.5 also decreased. From 2014 to 2019, the carcinogenic risk of lead in PM2.5 in Jinan ranged from 1.69×10−8 to 2.45×10−6, showing a significant downward trend year by year, and the 95th percentile decreased by 3%-46% from the previous year. The carcinogenic risk level of lead was reduced to an acceptable level (<1×10−6) after 2017. Conclusion From 2015 to 2019, lead concentration and enrichment factor in PM2.5 increase during heating period compared with non-heating period, but it is not completely consistent of lead content in PM2.5 per unit mass. From 2014 to 2016, exposure to lead in PM2.5 may elevate carcinogenic risk to human. After 2017, the carcinogenic risks of exposure to lead in PM2.5 are at an acceptable level.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the changes of volatile oil of Atractylodis Rhizoma(AR)and Atractylodis macrocephalae Rhizoma(AMR)before and after co-decocting in different proportions(1∶3,1∶2,1∶1,2∶1,3∶1).Methods The volatile oil was extracted by steam distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS).Results After co-decocting,the yield of volatile in each group was higher than in single decocting.The relative contents of most components in the mixed volatile oil after co-decocting were significantly different from the theoretical calculation.Co-decocting could promote the extraction of hinesol,which is the main component of the essential oil of AR,and the compatibility with large doses of AMR(1∶2 and 1∶3)could also promote the dissolution of β-eudesmol.At the same time,the extraction of atractylon,germacrene B and valencene was inhibited by co-decocting,which were the main constituents of the volatile oil of AMR.Conclusion Co-decocting of AR and AMR could improve the extraction rate and change the chemical composition of volatile oil.After co-decocting,the dissolution of active components of AR increased,while the dissolution of active components of AMR decreased.It may lead to the change of pharmacological activity.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the value of PET/CT imaging with 68Ga-1, 4, 7-triazacyclononane-1, 4, 7-triacetic acid-3 polyethylene glycol- D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide Arg-Gly-Asp (NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD), a dual somatostatin receptor 2- and integrin α vβ 3- targeting tracer, in the evaluation of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). Methods:From April 2021 to February 2022, 35 patients (19 males, 16 females; median age 54(41, 61) years) with histologically confirmed NEN in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were prospectively enrolled. All patients were scanned with both 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD and 68Ga-1, 4, 7, 1 0-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid- D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide (DOTATATE) PET/CT imaging within one week. The differences of the numbers of detected lesions, SUV max and tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) between the two imaging methods were compared by Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results:Of the 35 patients, the total numbers of lesions detected by 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD and 68Ga-DOTATATE were 1 190 and 1 106, respectively. 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD and 68Ga-DOTATATE both detected 35 primary tumors and performed comparably in detecting lymph node metastases (4(1, 8) vs 4(1, 8); z=-0.45, P=0.655) and bone metastases (5(2, 60) vs 5(2, 66); z=-1.11, P=0.244). However, the number of liver lesions detected by 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD was significantly higher than that by 68Ga-DOTATATE (17(6, 27) vs 8(3, 26); z=-2.31, P=0.021). 68Ga-DOTATATE demonstrated higher SUV max than 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD (15.6(9.9, 24.9) vs 12.7(8.0, 18.4); z=-7.19, P<0.001), while the TBR of liver metastases was significantly lower (3.4(1.8, 5.5) vs 6.1(3.8, 10.8); z=-7.56, P<0.001). Conclusion:68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD performs better than 68Ga-DOTATATE in the detection of liver metastases, while is comparable to 68Ga-DOTATATE in detecting lesions of other sites.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of regulation of GATA6 expression by long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)GATA6 antisense RNA 1(GATA6-AS1)on the proliferation,apoptosis,and metastasis of 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)resistant gastric cancer(GC)cells SGC7901/5-FU,and to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods:Parental SGC7901 cells and SGC7901/5-FU cells were used as controls(treated with blank culture medium).Empty vector pcDNA3.1(control for GATA6-AS1 overexpression),recombinant vector pcDNA3.1-GATA6-AS1(for GATA6-AS1 overexpression),shNC(negative control for GATA6-AS1 silencing)or shGATA6-AS1(for GATA6-AS1 silencing)were transfected into SGC7901/5-FU cells by Lipofectamine 2000 to overexpress or silent GATA-AS1.The mRNA expression of GATA6-AS1 and GATA6 in cells of different treatment groups were examined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.After 5-FU treatment,the proliferation,migration,invasion and apoptosis were analyzed by CCK-8 assay,wound-healing assay,Transwell assay,and flow cytometry(FCM)assay,respectively.The protein expression levels of Bax,Bcl-2,Caspase 3 and GATA6 in different treatment groups were examined by Western blotting.The stability of GATA6 mRNA was evaluated after α-amanitin treatment.The relationship between GATA6-AS1 and GATA6 was studied by RNA pull-down experiment.Furthermore,the SGC7901 cell transplantation tumor model was established using Balb/c nude mice,and the grouping was the same as in vitro experiments with 12 mice in each group.The tumor growth was recored and the tumor inhibition rate was calculated after 5-FU treatment.The histopathological changes of tumor tissue in each group was assessed by HE staining.The protein expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)in tumor tissues of nude mice in each group was detected by Western blotting. Results:Compared with parental SGC7901 cells(control group),the expression of GATA6-AS1 and GATA6 mRNA was significantly downregulated in SGC7901/5-FU cells(P<0.05);the proliferation,migration and invasion of SGC7901/5-FU cells was significantly decreased while the apoptosis of SGC7901/5-FU cells was significantly decreased(P<0.05);the protein expression levels of GATA6,Bax and Caspase 3 were significantly decreased while that of Bcl-2 was significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with SGC7901/5-FU-pcDNA group,the above changes showed opposite trends in SGC7901/5-FU cells overexpressing GATA6-AS1.Compared with SGC7901/5-FU-shNC group,the expression of GATA6-AS1 and GATA6 mRNA was significantly downregulated in GATA6-AS1-silencing SGC7901/5-FU cells(P<0.05);the proliferation,migration and invasion of GATA6-AS1-silencing SGC7901/5-FU cells was significantly decreased while apoptosis of GATA6-AS1-silencing SGC7901/5-FU cells was significantly decreased(P<0.05);the protein expression levels of GATA6,Bax and Caspase 3 were significantly decreased while that of Bcl-2 was significantly increased(P<0.05).GATA6-AS1 can increase the stability of GATA6 mRNA and positively regulate the expression of GATA6.In vivo characterization showed that,compared with mice transplanted with parental SGC7901 cells,the tumor volume and PCNA protein expression in tumor tissues were significantly increased in mice transplanted with drug resistant SGC7901/5-FU cells after 5-FU treatment(P<0.05).Mice in SGC7901/5-FU-GATA6-AS1 group showed significantly reduced tumor volume and PCNA protein expression compared with the SGC7901/5-FU-pcDNA group(P<0.05),and pathological analysis of the tumor tissues revealed milder development of GC in SGC7901/5-FU-GATA6-AS1 group.Whereas,mice in SGC7901/5-FU-shGATA6-AS1 group showed significantly increased tumor volume and PCNA protein expression compared with the SGC7901/5-FU-shNC group(P<0.05),and histopathological analysis of the tumor tissues revealed severer development of GC in SGC7901/5-FU-shGATA6-ASl group. Conclusion:Overexpression of GATA6-AS1 can promote the expression of GATA6,inhibit the growth of GC cells,and thus reverse the resistance of SGC7901/5-FU cells to 5-FU.

ABSTRACT

Background/Aims@#Chemoresistance is a common event after cancer chemotherapy, which is associated with the deregulation of circular RNAs (circRNAs). The objective of this study was to clarify the role of circ-LDLRAD3 in cisplatin (DDP)-resistant gastric cancer (GC). @*Methods@#The expression of circ-LDLRAD3, miR-588, and SRY-box transcription factor 5 (SOX5) mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell viability and the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50 ) value were measured by CCK8 assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by colony formation and EdU assays. Cell apoptosis and cell invasion were assessed by flow cytometry assay and transwell assay, respectively. The expression of SOX5 protein was detected by Western blotting. A xenograft model was established to verify the role of circ-LDLRAD3 in vivo. Exosomes were isolated by differential centrifugation and identified by transmission electron microscopy and the expression of exosome-related proteins. @*Results@#circ-LDLRAD3 was overexpressed in DDP-resistant GC tissues and cells. circ-LDL-RAD3 knockdown decreased the IC 50 of DDP-resistant cells and suppressed cell proliferation, survival and invasion. miR-588 was a target of circ-LDLRAD3, and miR-588 inhibition attenuated the inhibition of DDP resistance, proliferation, survival and invasion in DDP-resistant GC cells caused by circ-LDLRAD3 knockdown. SOX5 was a target of miR-588, and the inhibition of the DDP resistance, proliferation, survival and invasion of DDP-resistant GC cells by miR-588 restoration was largely rescued SOX5 overexpression. circ-LDLRAD3 knockdown inhibited DDP resistance and tumor growth in vivo. circ-LDLRAD3 was overexpressed in exosomes isolated from DDP-resistant GC cells. @*Conclusions@#circ-LDLRAD3 knockdown reduced DDP resistance and blocked the malignant development of DDP-resistant GC by modulating the miR-588/SOX5 pathway.

ABSTRACT

To fill the urgent need of researches on the structure and function of proteins to obtain conformation information, we combined targeted molecular dynamics ( TMD) simulation with protein network methods to analyze conformation variations in the activation process of β2 adrenergic receptor. First, targeted MD was used to obtain the conformation resembles in the activation process, and then the protein network method was applied to identify the key residues and pathways in the activation process. The results indicate that the activa-tion process of β2 adrenergic receptor involves in the cooperation of all regions and the connector region of transmembrane helices is signaling hubs. In addition, the helix ends, including intracellular and extracellular loops, are the core areas. The pathway analysis reveals that there is more than one signaling pathway. All the pathways start from Ser204 of the ligand pocket and finally transmit to NPxxY or ICL2 region, which are depended on the different pathways. While the helix TMIII, TMV, TMVI are the important areas in all the pathways. The observations from the work provide valuable information at molecular level for unraveling the signal transduction mechanism associated with the activation process.

ABSTRACT

Objective To detect the dynamic visual acuity ( DVA) before and after vestibular habituation of subjects in order to optimize the DVA assessment criteria .Methods The vestibular function examination system was applied to the detection of static and dynamic visual function in 16 healthy subjects .Results When the speed of left or right swinging was fast enough , DVA before and after vestibular habituation was different .Conclusion Subjects with vestibular habituation can reduce their sensitivity to the vestibular system , the changes in DVA are better than before habituation , and the vestib-ular function adaptability training may have effect on DVA .

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the detection rate of abnormal cardiovascular and metabolic indicators in health check-up populations,and provide evidence for early screening and health interventions for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.Methods A total of 5578 adults (male 3404 and female 2174) were recruited from a medical institution in Beijing in 2008 and 2010.Cardiovascular and metabolic indicators,including blood pressure,lipid profile and fasting plasma glucose,were tested at baseline and 2 years.Paired t test or paired rank sum test was used for data analysis.Results Detection rate of abnormal blood pressure in 2010 was lower than that in 2008; however,rates of abnormal total cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and fasting plasma glucose were higher in 2010 than in 2008 (t values were 5.378,13.885,3.210,10.401 and 4.355,respectively; all P < 0.05).High-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride showed no statistically significant difference between 2008 and 2010 (t values were 1.204 and -0.012,respectively; both P > 0.05).Conclusion We have been observing a dynamic change in abnormal cardiovascular and metabolic indicators,based on which effective interventions could be taken to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish a model for evaluating risk grade of cardiovascular health in adults undergoing health checkups.Methods Medical record of individuals who took health checkup in 6 heahhcare centers from 2008 to 2010 was retrospectively reviewed.The study populations were then assigned to 3 classes by using Cluster analysis and ANOVA.An assessment model for cardiovascular health was then established by using discriminant analysis method.Results The evaluation model of cardiovascular health was built by using cluster analysis and diseriminant analysis.The model was good and the consistent homology rate was 97.5%.The model was well used for cardiovascular health evaluation in healthcare center (the Kappa value in 2009 and 2010 was 0.446 and 0.415,respectively) and the consistency of the model was good.Conclusions This evaluation model of cardiovascular health could be used for grading and assessing of the level of health management of cardiovascular health.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the therapeutic effects and its possible mechanism ofBushen Paidu Mixture on renal interstitial fibrosis. Methods A total of 60 mice were randomly divided into a normal group,UUO group, Bushen Paidu Mixture group and Lotensin group. Mice models were induced by unilateral ureteral occlusion (UUO). Execute the mice at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after UUO. The involved kidney were separated and had HE staining. Determine integrinβ1 in kidney tissue through immunohistochemical methods. Results Integrinβ1 tissues had a weak expression in normal kidney. Integrinβ1 expressed higher in UUO group than normal group. The expression of integrinβ1 in Bushen Paidu Mixture group and Lotensin group was lower than the UUO group at every timing point. There is no significant difference between the Bushen Mixture group and Lotensin group in terms of integrinβ1 expression. Conclusion Bushen Paidu Mixture can slow down the process of renal interstitial fibrosis through regulating integrinβ1 expression.
