H2O2 decreases Klotho expression in mouse renal tubular epithelial cells / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective To evaluate the effect of oxidative injury induced by peroxide oxidase on Klotho expression in mouse renal tubular epithelial cells (TCMK-1) and to explore the possible pathway.Methods TCMK-1 cells were exposed to H2O2 of different concentrations.Reactive oxygen species (ROS) was examined byflow cytometrry.Cell viability was assessed by CCK-8.Cell apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33258 staining.The expression of Klotho,apoptosis-associated proteins and anti-oxidant enzymes were determined by Western blotting.Results Compared with control group,after H2O2 stimulating TCMK-1 cell,ROS was dramatically elevated (all P ＜ 0.05) and the expression of anti-oxidant enzymes,SOD2 and CAT went down (all P ＜ 0.05);the expression of Klotho was inhibited (all P ＜ 0.05);cell viability of TCMK-1 cells was decreased (all P ＜ 0.05) in a dose-dependent manner (0.3 to 0.9 mmol/L);cell apoptosis was significantly increased in TCMK-1 cells following the concentration of H2O2 (all P ＜ 0.05);Bax/Bcl-2 and the phosphororation of JNK and p38 were obviously elevated in TCMK-1 by H2O2 induction (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Oxidative injuries induced by H2O2 significantly suppresses the expression of Klotho in TCMK-1 cells.And cell apoptosis was increased,p38 and JNK pathway was activated.

Gene polymorphisms in the nucleotide excision repair pathway and lung cancer susceptibility / 国际肿瘤学杂志

Nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway is one of the principal ways of the repair of DNA damage.The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of its key genes such as xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) gene,excision repair cross complementingl (ERCC1) gene and xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) gene may be associated with differences in the DNA repair capacity and may influence an individual's risk of lung cancer,because the variant genotype in those polymorphisms might destroy or alter repair function.

Temperament and Intelligence of Preschool Children / 中国心理卫生杂志

Objective:To study the relationship between the temperament and intelligence of preschool children Method:The temperament and intelligence of 350 preschool children were tested with Scales of Children Temperament Questionnaire and Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence Result:There was no gender difference in children's temperament Children with positive tendency in temperament had higher intelligence quotient, especially for verbal IQ The IQ of our sample was associated with the rhythmicity, adaptability and persistency in temperament Conclusion:In preschool children, intelligence is associated with their temperament
