ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of miR-155 and miR-146a in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and plasma of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.MethodsPBMC and plasma were separated from the peripheral blood of 34 RA patients and 15 healthy individuals.Total RNAs were isolated and miRNAs were purified.The levels of miR-155 and miR-146a were determined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR(qRT-PCR).U6 was used as housekeeping control.The amount of target miRNA was normalized relative to the amount of U6(ΔCt=ΔCtmiRNA-ΔCtU6).Relative expression levels were expressed as 2 △-ΔCt.Data were analyzed using SPSS 13.0 software.The test of homogeneity of variance and unpaired t-test was used to compare between groups.P values(2-tailed) less than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant.ResultsThe expressions of PBMC and plasma miR-155 were higher in RA patients than those in the healthy control individuals(0.08±0.08 vs 0.05±0.03,t=-2.225,P＜0.05; 5.9±6.7 vs 1.3±2.0,t=-3.677,P＜0.05).The expression of miR-146a in PBMC and plasma of RA patients and controls were(1.3±1.2 vs 0.8±0.6,t=-2.154,P＜0.05)and(741±1001 vs 300±295,t=-1.669,P＞0.05).According to their DAS28 value,RA patients were divided into high activity group (23 cases,DAS28≥5.0) and low disease activity group( 11cases,DAS28＜5.0).The plasma miR-155 and miR-146a expressions were significantly higher in high activity group than those in low activity group.There were no significant differences in the expression of PBMC miR-155 and miR-146a between the two groups.ConclusionThe expression of PBMC and plasma miR-155 and miR-146a are higher in RA patients.The expression of plasma miR-155 and miR-146a are associated with RA patients' activity.Plasma miR-155 and miR-146a may be potential non-invasive biomarkers for RA diagnosis anddisease activity assessment.

[ABSTRACT]AIM:ToinvestigatethedifferenteffectsofERK1/2/PPARα/SCAD(short-chainacyl-CoAdehy-drogenase) signal pathways on the cardiac hypertrophy induced by insulin-like growth factors 1 ( IGF-1) or phenylephrine ( PE) .METHODS:The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes induced by IGF-1 were used as the model of physiological cardiac hypertrophy , and those induced by PE were used as the model of pathological cardiac hypertrophy .The surface area of the cardiomyocytes, the expression of p-ERK1/2, PPARαand SCAD, the activity of SCAD and the content of free fatty acid in the cardiomyocytes were measured .RESULTS:Compared with the control cells , the surface area of the cardiomyocytes in-duced by IGF-1 and PE were both increased .Compared with the controls , the expression of SCAD and PPARα, and the activity of SCAD in the cardiomyocytes induced by IGF-1 were increased , while the expression of p-ERK1/2 was de-creased.However, the cardiomyocytes treated with PE showed decreased expression of SCAD and PPARα, decreased activ-ity of SCAD and increased expression of p-ERK1/2.Meanwhile, the decrease in free fatty acid in IGF-1-induced cardio-myocytes and the increase in PE-induced cardiomyocytes indicated that the fatty acid utilization was increased in the cardio -myocytes induced by IGF-1, but decreased in the cardiomyocytes induced by PE .CONCLUSION: The changes of p-ERK1/2, PPARαand SCAD in the cardiac hypertrophy induced by IGF-1 or PE indicate that the effects of ERK 1/2/PPARα/SCAD signal pathways are different between physiological cardiac hypertrophy and pathological cardiac hypertro -phy , and that SCAD may be a molecular marker of these 2 different cardiac hypertrophies and a potential therapeutic target for pathological cardiac hypertrophy .

Objective To elucidate the function way of micro RNA(miR)-155 in the differentiation of Th17 cells.Methods CD4+T cells were separated from mice spleens using MACS CD4+T cells separatinge kit and cultured with interleukins [interleukin (IL)-2, IL-23 and IL-6] which could induce CD4+ T cells differentiate into Th17 cells.IL-17 was detected by flow cytometry and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) after transfected with miR-155 mimics or inhibitor lentiviral vectors.The expression levels of miR-155, IL-17A mRNA and Ets-1 mRNA were detected using fluorescent quantitation real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The si-Ets and miR-155 co-function for Th17 differentiation was analyzed.Data analysis was perfoemed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test and Dunnett test for pair-wise comparison and t test.P＜0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.Results The CD4+T cells were divided into four groups (the untreated control untreat group, the treatment control treat group, the miR-155 mimnics group and miR-155 inhibitor group).IL-17 was scarcely expressed and secreted in the untreated control untreat group.The cells expression of IL-17 were significantly different among the four groups (F=160.549, P＜0.01).The cells expressing of IL-17 were higher in the miR-155 mimics group (39.86±4.62)％ than those at the miR-155 inhibitor group (22.02±2.81)％, P＜0.01) and in the treated control treat group [(19.44±1.49)％, P＜0.01].The level of IL-17 was also significantly different among the four groups (F=260.813, P＜0.01).The level of IL-17 was higher in the miR-155 mimics group [(1 509±136) pg/ml] than that in the miR-155 inhibitor group [(923± 42) pg/ml, P＜0.01);and in the treated control group [(767±94) pg/ml, P＜0.01).The expression of miR-155 (12.53±0.80 vs 1.78±0.14, 7.16±0.62, 6.47±0.92, P＜0.01) and IL-17A mRNA (46.55±6.71 vs 1.01±0.19,15.62±1.26, 14.20±2.73, P＜0.01) was significantly higher than that in the other three groups, while the expression of Ets-1 mRNA was significantly lower (0.66±0.10 vs 1.19±0.04, 1.01±0.16, 1.37±0.27, P＜0.01).si-Ets-2 was screened because it markedly inhibited the expression of Ets-1 mRNA among the three designed siRNAs.The expression of IL-17A mRNA was higher (17.19±3.58 vs 10.08±0.76, t=-3.361, P=0.028) and the expression of Ets-1 mRNA was lower (0.27±0.01 vs 0.74±0.03, t=-30.275, P＜0.01) in si-Ets-2 group than that in si-Con group when si-Ets-2 or si-Con was co-transfected with miR-155 mimics or inhibitor lentiviral vectors.The expression of Ets-1 protein was lower in si-Ets-2 group than that in si-Con group by Western blotting and the decrease was markedly obvious in the miR-155 mimics group.Conclusion miR-155 can induce CD4+T cells to differentiate into Th17 cells by inhibiting the gene expression of Ets-1.

ObjectiveTo clarify the relationship between intestinal flora and intestinal motility in rats with slow transit constipation （STC） and qi stagnation syndrome by conducting a pseudo-sterile experiment and fecal microbiota transplantation （FMT） technology. MethodsTwenty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group （n=6）， STC with qi stagnation pattern group （n=6） and pseudo-sterile group （n=12）. In the STC group with qi stagnation pattern， 3 mg/kg of loperamide suspension by intragastric administration combined with tail clamping stimulation were performed to establish the rat model of STC with qi stagnation pattern. After successful modeling， fresh feces from the rats in the STC with qi stagnation pattern group and the normal group were collected to prepare 100 mg/ml of fecal bacterial suspension. In the pseudo-sterile group， the antibiotic cocktail method was used （a mixed antibiotic suspension containing bacitracin， streptomycin sulfate， and neomycin sulfate at 20 mg/ml each was administered intragastrically） to establish pseudo-sterile rats model. After successful modeling， the rats were randomly divided into normal fecal bacterial liquid group and STC with qi stagnation pattern fecal bacterial liquid group， with six rats in each group， and then were given 10 ml/kg of the prepared corresponding rat fecal bacterial suspension by gavage. Rats in STC with qi stagnation pattern group were given an equal volume of sterile water by gavage. All groups were administered once a day for 7 consecutive days. The small intestinal propulsion rate of the STC with qi stagnation pattern group， the normal fecal bacterial liquid group， and STC with qi stagnation pattern fecal bacterial liquid group were compared. ELISA method was used to detect serum 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT） levels. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the positive expression levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor （5-HT3R） and 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor （5-HT4R） in colon tissue. Western blot method was used to detect the protein expression levels of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 （TPH1）， tryptophan hydroxylase 2 （TPH2）， serotonin transporter （SERT）， and monoamine oxidase A （MAO-A） in colon tissue. ResultsCompared to those in the normal fecal bacterial liquid group， the small intestinal propulsion rate， serum 5-HT level， positive expression of 5-HT3R and 5-HT4R in colon tissue， and protein expression of TPH1， TPH2， SERT and MAO-A significantly decreased in the STC with qi stagnation pattern group and STC with qi stagnation pattern fecal bacterial liquid group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the indicators between the STC with qi stagnation pattern group and STC with qi stagnation pattern fecal bacterial liquid group （P＞0.05）. ConclusionThe intestinal flora in STC rats with qi stagnation pattern can lead to a slowdown in intestinal transmission function， whose mechanism may be related to intestinal motility disorders affected by the synthesis， transport， metabolism and other pathways of 5-HT.
