Relationship between the blood test results of thyroid function and intolerance to 14 kinds of foods in physical examination population / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the blood test results of seven items of thyroid function and intolerance to 14 kinds of foods in physical examination population.Methods:Total of 45 764 participants who received physical examination and accepted 14-kind food intolerance and 7-item thyroid function detection from August 2016 to September 2019 in Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital were included in this study. The data were analyzed based on age, gender, body mass index, smoking and drinking status, and laboratory test indexes. Chi square test and univariate or multivariate logistic regression were applied to analyze the correlation between food intolerance and thyroid function in the physical examination population.Results:In the subjects, there were 29 361 cases (64.16%) with at least intolerance to one kind of food, and 15 011 (32.80%) were in Grade 1, 9 037 (19.75%) in grade 2 and 5 313 (11.61%) in grade 3. The positive rate of egg intolerance was the highest (34.06%), and that of beef intolerance was the lowest (1.24%). Of the participants, 11 337 (24.77%) had at least one item thyroid dysfunction, among them, the highest abnormal rate was found in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), followed by anti-thyroglobulin antibodies and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies. The proportion (26.32%) of abnormal thyroid function in the participants with at least intolerance to one kind of food was significantly higher than that (22.00%) in the participants without intolerance to the 14 kinds of foods ( χ2=105.78, P<0.001). After adjusting for other significantly related factors, the positive results of intolerance to 14 kinds of foods was still the significant influencing factor of thyroid function abnormalities ( OR=1.14, Z=5.68, 95% CI: 1.09-1.20, P<0.001). Further analysis showed that, after adjusted for age, gender, smoking and drinking status, intolerance to four kinds of foods (egg, soybean, crab and pork) were the significant influencing factors of abnormal thyroid function. Conclusions:Food intolerance is an independent risk factor of thyroid dysfunction. Among them, egg, soybean, crab and pork may be the most important food varieties should be paid more attention to.

Progress in study of selective ERβ ligands / 药学学报

Estrogen receptors (ERs) are members of nuclear receptors and related to several diseases such as cancer, inflammation and osteoporosis. ERs have two forms, ERα and ERβ, which have different functions and organism distributions. Compounds selectively targeting ERβ can regulate important physiological functions and avoid the side effects caused by targeting ERα. Therefore, selective ERβ ligands have received considerable research interest in recent years. In this article, different kinds of selective ERβ ligands were summarized and their structure-activity relationships were also analyzed.

Determination of 2460 A in Trichoderma Hazianum Fermentation Liquor by On-line Two-dimensional Liquid Chromatographic Method / 分析化学

An on-line two dimensional liquid chromatographic (2D-LC) method was established by using an ultimate dual gradient liquid chromatography, three chromatographic columns and valve-switching technology to detect 2460A in trichoderma hazianum fermentation liquor. MF C8 column (10 mm×4. 6 mm, 5. 0 μm) was used as purification column and MG C18 column (20 mm×4. 6 mm, 5. 0 μm) was used as enriching column. Methanol and water were used as mobile phase with a gradient elution at a flow rate of 2. 0 mL/min. The sample was separated on the Thermo Hypersil GOLD C18 column (250 mm×4. 6 mm, 5. 0μm) maintained at 40 ℃ using methanol and water. The flow rate was 1. 0 mL/min and 1. 0 mL sample was injected into the 2D-LC system. The detection wavelength was 424 nm. The whole analytical time was less than 60 min. The standard curve was linear over the 2460A concentration range of 0. 0025-10. 0 mg/L(r=0. 9981, n=8). The limit of detection was calculated to be 1 . 2μg/L ( S/N=3 ) and the limit of quantification was calculated to be 2 . 5 μg/L ( S/N=10 ) . The average recoveries varied from 88 . 0% to 104 . 4%.

Comparison of the immune effects of Coxsackievirus B3 VP1 protein, rAd/VP1 and pcDNA3/VP1 in mice / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective To compare the immune effects of Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) capsid protein VP1 expressed bacterially, recombinant adenovirus rAd/VP1 and recombinant plasmid pcDNA3/VP1which express VP1 protein in mice. Methods After expressed in prokaryotic cells, VP1 protein was purified. Recombinant adenovirus rAd/VP1 and recombinant plasmid pcDNA3/VP1 were amplified and extracted. Six to 8-week-old, male BALB/c mice were divided into four groups randomly. Each group contained 18 mice. The mice of pcDNA3/VP1 group or VP1 protein group were immunized intramuscularly with three injections at three weeks apart, of recombinant plasmid pcDNA3/VP1 at a dose of 100 μg/mouse or recombinant protein VP1 at a dose of 50 μg/mouse. The mice of rAd/VP1 group were immunized intramuscularly twice at two weeks interval with rAd/VP1 at a dose of 1.2 × 107 PFU. The control group was mock-immunized with 100 μl of PBS intramuscularly. Mice were bled from the retroorbital sinus plexus every two weeks after each immunization. ELISA and micro-neutralization test were used to detect levels of CVB3-specific IgG antibody and neutralizing antibody titers in the sera of immunized mice. Three weeks after the last immunization, the cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL) killing activity of spleen lymphocytes was detected with CCK-8 assay. Subsequently, virus titers in the sera of immunized mice were determined by the 50% cell culture infective dose( CCID50 ) assay on HeLa cell monolayers and percentage of animals surviving were observed after lethal CVB3 attack over a period of 21 days. Results The titers of specific IgG antibody and neutralizing antibody in sera of VP1 protein immunized mice were higher than other groups( P ＜0.05 ). While CTL killing activity of spleen lymphocytes of VP1 protein immunized mice was lower than mice in rAd/VP1 group( P ＜0. 05). Virus titers in sera of VP1 protein immunized mice were lower than the mice in pcDNA3/VP1 or rAd/VP1 groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ), while survival rate was significantly higher than these two groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion VP1 protein induced higher level of humoral immune response and acquired obvious immune protection effects in mice. The immunizing potency of VP1 protein vaccine surpassed plasmid pcDNA3/VP1or recombinant adenovirus rAd/VP1. It appeared to be a promising candidate among the three different vaccines.
