16 The intervention effect of total flavonoids of mao dongqing on cerebral ischaemic tolerance model in mice
ConclusionIschaemic preconditioning can induce cerebral ischaemic tolerance. The total flavonoids of Mao Dongqing and ischaemic preconditioning have a synergistic effect by inhibition of the overexpression of immediate early gene c-fos, COX-2 and improved platelet function. It can reduce brain injury and promote the formation of cerebral ischaemic tolerance. (Source: Journal of Investigative Medicine)

15 Comparison of biomechanical characteristics on barefoot running and shod running
BackgroundCompared with the rearfoot strike pattern of shod running, barefoot running with a forefoot strike pattern will change the kinematics and kinetic parameters. This paper analyses the biomechanical differences between barefoot running and shod running and aims to provide a reference for barefoot training and the prevention of sports injury.MethodsThree-dimensional force plate test and three-dimensional video analysis.ResultsKinetic characteristics: The F-t curve by the force plate test shows that barefoot running has a smooth curve with a single peak while the F-t curve of shod running has a double peak on the vert...

14 The mechanism of pkcB-p66shc-nadph oxidase pathway in high glucose induced-oxidative stress in renal tubular epithelial cells
ConclusionThe study clarified a novel mechanism of oxidative stress damaging HK-2 cells via the modulation of the PKCβ-P66Shc-NADPH oxidase pathway. Understanding the molecular pathway of oxidative stress could translate into the development of therapeutic strategies for diabetic nephropathy.AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China [No. 81400300] and Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province [No. BK20130642].

10 Knockdown of transforming growth factor beta regulator 4 (tbrg4) promotes apoptosis in human lung cancer cell line h1299 via regulating ddit3, cav1 and rrm2
AbstractTransforming growth factor beta regulator 4 (TBRG4) gene is located on 7 p14-p13, a region correlated with many cancer types, such as hematologic malignancies, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and multiple myeloma. However, the role of TBRG4 in human lung cancer is largely unknown. Thus, in the present study, the TBRG4 mRNA level was evaluated in the lung cancer cell line H1299 by quantitative PCR (qPCR) after knocking down TBRG4 using lentivirus-mediated small interfering RNA (siRNA). The result showed that TBRG4 was significantly inhibited in H1299 by RNAi. Microarray analysis revealed 586 differentially-ex...

08 Study of total flavonoids from mao dongqing in cerebral ischemia reperfusion models
ConclusionThe results of this study showed that the model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in mice was successful. The total flavonoids from MDQ could achieve the role of anti-cerebral ischemia injury by inhibition of the inflammatory cascade, improving the imbalance of oxygen supply and demand and the disorder of glucose metabolism, inhibiting the apoptosis of nerve cells during cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury.AcknowledgmentNational "Significant New Drug Creation" science and technology major special project (2009Z x 09103-324).
