Objective To investigate the expression of DNA methyltransferase 3b (DNMT3B) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its effect and mechanism on the proliferation,invasion and migration of HCC cells.Methods The expression of DNMT3B gene was detected by qRT-PCR in 46 cases of HCC tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues;the results and clinical pathological parameters were analyzed.SiRNA targeting DNMT3B was transfected into MHCC97-H cells by RNA interference (RNAi) technique.The mRNA and protein expression levels of related genes were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.The cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay,and the invasion and migration abilities were measured by Transwell assay.Results In 46 HCC patients,the expression of DNMT3B (73.91％) was significantly higher in HCC than in adjacent normal tissue.The high expression of DNMT3B gene was associated with histological type and tumor size of HCC (all P＜0.05).Inhibition of DNMT3B gene expression decreased proliferation,invasion and migration of MHCC97-H cells.Interference with DNMT3B gene increased the expressions of tumor suppressor genes RASSFA1,APC and MTSS1 at mRNA and protein levels.Conclusion DNMT3B is associated with the progression of HCC.It may inhibit the proliferation,invasion and migration of HCC cells by regulating the methylation of downstream tumor suppressor gene.

AIM To prepare the hydroxypropyl-β cyclodextrin inclusion compound of volatile oil from Houttuyniae Herba.METHODS In the content determination of volatile oil by GC,2-undecanone was taken as a reference substance,and inclusion rate and drug loading were calculated.After the determination of optimal method for preparing the inclusion compound among techniques of mixing,grinding and ultrasonic methods.the preparation process was optimized by orthogonal test with ratio of volatile oil to hydroxypropyl-β cyclodextrin,inclusion temperature,mixing speed and inclusion time as influencing factors,and inclusion rate and drug loading as evaluation indices.The characterization was performed by TLC,infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry.Then high temperature,high humidity and strong light tests were applied to investigating the inclusion compound stability.RESULTS Mixing method brought forth the maximal yield,inclusion rate and drug loading for the inclusion compound.And under the optimal conditions of 1 ∶ 25 for ratio of volatile oil to hydroxypropyl-β cyclodextrin,50 ℃ for inclusion temperature,420 r/min for mixing speed,and 80 min for inclusion time,the inclusion rate and drug loading were identified to be 77.35％ and 4.48％,respectively.The obtained inclusion compound was found to be white powder with loose texture and significantly increased solubility,the in vitro accumulative release rate reached 80.85％.Deliquescence and agglomeration,as well as obviously decreased inclusion rate and drug loading,were observed at a relative humidity of more than 75％,despite the good stability at high temperature (60 ℃) and strong light (3 000 lx),and yet the rehydration character was good.CONCLUSION It is possible that the hydroxypropyl-β cyclodextrin inclusion compound of volatile oil from Houttuyniae Herba generates a new phase rather than a simple mixture,which should be kept dry and sealed at the time of storage.

Aim To investigate the effect of the total flavonoids of Epimedium (TFE)on MAPK/NF-κB sig-naling pathway and the inflammatory reaction in the hippocampus of natural aging male rats.Methods The morphological changes of the hippocampus com-posed of three areas (CA1 ,CA3 and DG)were ob-served using haematoxylin-eoin (HE ) staining.The protein expression levels of senescence-associated pro-tein p21,apoptosis-related proteins Bax and Bcl-2, nuclear transcription factor-κB p65 (NF-κB p65 )and its downstream inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1βand COX-2,and MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins (ERK1/2,p-ERK1/2,JNK,p-JNK,p38MAPK,p-p38MAPK)in hippocampal were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with natural aging group, TFE obviously improved the morphology and structure of hippocampal neurons,and the nerve cells arranged neatly and closely. Furthermore, TFE significantly downregulated the protein expression levels of p2 1 and Bax,upregulated the protein expression levels of Bcl-2 and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax,and reduced the expression of NF-κB p65 and of its downstream inflammatory fac-tors TNF-α, IL-1β, COX-2, and MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins (p-ERK1/2,p-JNK and p-p38 MAPK ) in hippocampus of natural aging rats. Conclusions TFE effectively protects against inflam-matory reaction in brain aging of SD male rats.The mechanism is related with inhibition of NF-κB nuclear translocation and reduction of its downstream inflamma-tory cytokines expression by inhibiting MAPK signaling pathway activation.
