Objective To construct the vector pcDNA3.1 containing VEGF165 gene and examine of pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 vector to the angiopoiesis, composition of collagen in rabbit bone defect model. Methods Extract total RNA from the rabbit tissue. Prepare cDNA by inverse transcription and clone the gene by PCR. Clone plasmid pMD18-T/VEGF165 combined with pcDNA3.1 to reconstruct pcDNA3.1- VEGF165. 28 New Zealand white rabbits weighted (2.0?0.130) kg were made bone defect model for 10 mm length in the bilateral radii. Cut down the skin, resect the bone of 10 mm in length in the middle of radius. The pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 0.2 ml (200 ng) plasmid was injected at one defect side randomly. The defect in the other side was served as control group, and injected with absorbable gelatin sponge and sodium chloride 0.2 ml. After the examination by X-ray the local specimens were obtained at 1,2,4,6,8,and 12 weeks respectively. The expression of collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ was examined at 4, 12 weeks by immunohistochemical staining techniques. Results The pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 vector was constructed successfully. The roentgenography: there was no difference between the two sides after 1 week operation; 2 weeks after the operation, there were some callus in the experimental group; there was nothing in the control group. After 4 weeks, there were much callus, synostosis and others in the experimental group, all of these were late in the control group. Two groups were healed after 12 weeks, the bone density was lower in the control group. Inflammatory cell infiltrate, cellular interstitialis, fibroblast, collagen and osteoblast were no difference between the two groups only at the first week, but the density of angiogenesis was much more in the experimental group at the following times. Expression of collagen type Ⅰ, Ⅲ were more intensity in the experimental group than the control one at 4,12 weeks. Conclusion Transcription to local bone cells at defect position with pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 plasmid can enhance quantity of the angiopoiesis, extra cellular matrix and the healing of bone defect.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of sleep fragmentation on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and hippocampal glutaminergic metabolism in aged mice anesthetized with isoflurane.Methods:Forty healthy SPF-grade male C57BL/6J mice, aged 18 months, weighing 20-30 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n= 10 each) by the random number table method: normal control group (group C), sleep fragmentation group (group SF), isoflurane anesthesia/surgery group (group I/S), and sleep fragmentation plus isoflurane anesthesia/surgery group (group SF+ I/S). Group C did not received any treatment. Group SF received sleep fragmentation for 24 h. The right carotid artery exposure was performed under isoflurane anesthesia in group I/S. Group SF+ I/S received isoflurane anesthesia/right carotid artery exposure at 24 h after sleep fragmentation. The metabolic levels of glutamate (Glu), glutamine (Gln), Glu/Gln complex (Glx), and N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and their ratio to creatine (Cr) were measured by in vivo 9.4T hydrogen proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 2 h after anaesthesia. Y maze and Morris water maze tests were used to evaluate the cognitive function at 1-7 days after surgery. The mice were sacrificed after the behavioral testing, brain tissues were immediately obtained, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CA1 region were measured by Nissl staining and Golgi staining, respectively. Results:Compared with group C, the percentage of exploration time and shuttle times at the novel arm were significantly decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the time of stay at the target quadrant was shortened, the ratios of Glu/Cr, Gln/Cr and Glx/Cr in the hippocampal CA1 region were increased, and the ratio of NAA/Cr was decreased, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines were decreased in SF, I/S and SF+ I/S groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group SF and group I/S, the percentage of exploration time and shuttle times at the novel arm were significantly decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the time of stay at the target quadrant was shortened, the ratios of Glu/Cr and Glx/Cr in hippocampal CA1 region was increased, the ratio of NAA/Cr was decreased, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines were decreased in group SF+ I/S ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Sleep fragmentation exacerbates POCD in aged mice anesthetized with isoflurane, and the mechanism is related to nerve injury induced by abnormality in hippocampal glutaminergic metabolism excitability.

Objective:To screen host cell proteins interacting with rotavirus nonstructural protein 2(NSP2) and provide a theoretical basis for the discovery of antiviral targets.Methods:E. coli BL21(DE3) was transformed with a recombinant plasmid NSP2-pGEX-6P-1 and induced by IPTG to express NSP2-GST. GST affinity chromatography was used to purify NSP2-GST and Western blot was performed for verification. NSP2-GST and GST proteins were used as targets to capture interacting proteins in MA104 cells via GST pull-down. After silver staining, differential proteins were screened by in-gel enzymatic hydrolysis and mass spectrometry. Protein pilot platform was used to filter peptides, and the names and the biological functions of the proteins were obtained by Paragon algorithm. The potential connection between the interacting proteins was demonstrated by protein interaction network diagrams and GO functional annotation analysis. Moreover, the molecular docking of the top three proteins with NPS2 was predicted using HDOCK server and verified by docking and confidence scores, so as to investigate the visual docking model between interacting proteins. Results:SDS-PAGE and Western blot showed the successful purification of the recombinant protein NSP2. Ten host proteins including PKM2, which might interact with NSP2, were identified by GST pull-down and protein profiling. GO analysis and interaction diagrams revealed that RPS4X, EZR, SUPT16H and EIF2S3 mediated molecular expression; PKM2, LDHA and ATP5A1 participated in energy metabolism; HSP90, ACTB and ANXA2 were involved in biological movement. Besides, there were functional connections and interaction networks among them. Molecular docking further verified PKM2, HSP90 and RPS4X did interact with NSP2, and the interaction force were strong enough to form a stable structure.Conclusions:This study successfully discovered several host proteins including PKM2, HSP90 and RPS4X that could interact with NSP2, providing reference for investigating the process of rotavirus infection and making related prevention and control strategies.

Restless legs syndrome is a common motor-sensory disease of the nervous system. The main manifestations are an urge to move the legs, usually accompanied by or thought to be caused by uncomfortable and unpleasant sensations in the legs. These symptoms may begin or worsen during periods of rest or inactivity such as lying down or sitting and be partially or totally relieved by movement, such as walking or stretching, at least as long as the activity continues. This article will systematically review the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis and treatment of restless legs syndrome.
