Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the links between oxytocin (OT), bone health, and osteoporosis risk in Chinese adult women, focusing on differences between premenopausal and postmenopausal groups.
- Results showed that premenopausal women had significantly higher serum OT, estradiol levels, and bone mineral density (BMD) compared to postmenopausal women, indicating a potential protective effect.
- The findings suggest that higher OT levels are associated with better BMD, particularly in the hip region of premenopausal women, highlighting OT's potential role in osteoporosis prevention and treatment.
Purpose: To evaluate changes in subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and peripapillary choroidal thickness (PPCT) after acute intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation provoked by a dark room prone provocative test (DRPPT).
Methods: The prospective cohort study included 114 eyes from 65 individuals who had an IOP elevation ≥2 mm Hg during the DRPPT. The participants stayed in a dark room for 2 h with the forehead placed on a desk.
The specific binding peptide pd20 of gastric cancer cells with a high potential for liver metastasis was fused with human tumour necrosis factor (TNF) α, and a prokaryotic expression vector was established to express the pd20-TNFα fusion protein. After purification and identification, the preventive effects of the fusion protein on liver metastasis of gastric cancer were observed in mice. The whole gene synthesis method was used for pd20-TNFα fusion gene preparation, and a pd20-TNFα prokaryotic expression vector was constructed.

Objective: To investigate the effect of hepatitis B virus X gene on the apoptosis in X gene-transfected HepG2 cells.
Methods: HBX gene eukaryon expression vector pcDNA3.1-X was transfected into HepG2 cells by lipid-mediated transfection to establish HepG2/HBX cell model for HBX expression.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose regulation among the permanent urban and rural inhabitants in Shanghai.
Methods: Questionnaire survey, physical examination, and laboratory testing were conducted among 14401 urban and rural inhabitants aged 15 - 74 in Shanghai selected by multistage cluster random sampling. The data about the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose regulation were collected and analyzed.
