Objective To express in prokaryotic system and to analyze the antigenic specificity of EB virus(EBV) latent membrane protein 2(LMP2) multi-epitopes gene rich of T cell and B cell epitopes.Methods Using on-line prediction service, T cell epitopes and B cell epitopes of EB virus latent membrane protein 2 were predicted. The genes rich of CTL and th cell epitopes were selected as the candidate gene sequences, while B cell epitopes around them were taken into account. The finial selected multi-epitope gene was synthesized after being optimized according to prokaryotic codon bias and inserted into prokaryotic expression vector pET32a( + ) to get the recombinant plasmid: pET32a( + )/EBV-LMP2 multi-epitopes. After transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) and induced by IPTG, the target multi-epitopes gene can be expressed as Trx-His fusion protein. The expression products can be identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Moreover, rabbit serum antibody to EBV membrane protein and nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patient serum were used respectively to detect the antigenic specificity of the multi-epitopes. Meanwhile, 6-8 weeks female BALB/c mice were immunized with EBV-LMP2 multi-epitope at 2 week intervals, three times in all, Trx-His protein and PBS were set as the control groups. At the second week after the last immunization, the mice were sacrificed. LDH and indirect ELISA were taken to detect the specific spleen CTL activityand specific IgG in serum, which reflected the immunogenicity of the EBV-LMP2 multi-epitope. Results Two amino acid sequences which locate at the LMP2 (aa195 -232 ) and LMP2 (aa419-436 ) were selected and connected in series to be the target gene. The recombinant plasmid containing EBV-LMP2 multi-epitope gene successfully constructed and the target protein was expressed in E. coli BL21 ( DE3 ). The relative molecular mass(Mr) of The expression products is about 27 × 103 , which matches up to the expected Mr. The antigenic specificity of the multi-epitopes protein was identified by Western blot and the multi-epitopes protein also can be detected by rabbit serum antibody to EBV membrane protein and NPC patient serum respectively. In the result of the animal experiment, EBV-LMP2 multi-epitope was able to induce the specific CTL activity in BALB/c mice. With the increasing of the effector: target ( E: T) 1: 5,1: 10, 1: 25, the CTL activity was also increased wih( 12.52% + 2.59% ), (21.80% + 1.08% ), (23.68% + 3.74% ) respectively; EBV-LMP2 multi-epitope was able to induce LMP2-specific antibody response(A490 =0.258 +0.040) as compared with Trx-His protein(A490 =0.095 +0.011) and PBS(A490 =0.068 +0.014,P＜0.05＝. Conclusion The EBV-LMP2 multi-epitopes gene was designed successfully and expressed precisely in prokaryotic expression system with good antigenicity and immunogenicity.

Objective This study was designed to compare the mRNA expression of Toll-like receptors 2 (TLR2) and Toll-like receptors 4 (TLR4) in monocytes between brucellosis cases and healthy controls,to explore the role and value of TLR2 and TLR4 in the pathogenesis of brucellosis.Methods From March to June in 2015,a total of 155 brucellosis cases at different clinical stages were diagnosed in Ulanqab Center for Endemic Disease Prevention and Control and 50 healthy controls were selected as research subjects.Subjective clinical symptoms of all patients were observed.Serological detection of all cases was done using serum tube agglutination test (SAT).The mRNA expression of TLR2 and TLR4 in peripheral blood cell was detected by real-time PCR technique.Results Fever,hyperhidrosis,weak,bone ache and hepatosplenomegaly were found in patients of acute (69 people),subacute (34 people) and chronic (52 people) periods.The incidences of fever and hyperhidrosis in acute and subacute periods were higher than that in chronic period,and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =58.427,26.190,all P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of bone ache in chronic period was higher than that in acute period,and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =9.264,P ＜ 0.01).In the agglutination titer of 1:800 and higher,the positive rate of chronic period was lower than those in acute and subacute periods,and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =14.302,8.682,all P ＜ 0.01).The mRNA expression levels of TLR2 and TLR4 were different among different clinical periods of brucellosis patients,and the differences were statistically significant (F =17.502,24.931,all P ＜ 0.01).The expression levels of TLR2 mRNA (8.67 ± 2.39) and TLR4 mRNA (12.38 ± 3.87) in acute period of brucellosis patients were higher than those of subacute period (5.21 ± 1.76,7.62 ± 2.21),chronic period (1.25 ± 0.47,1.72 ± 0.55) and healthy control (1.17 ± 0.23,1.43 ± 0.62),and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.01).The expression levels of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA in subacute period of brucellosis patients were higher than those of chronic period and healthy controls,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.01).The expression levels of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA were not significantly different (all P ＞ 0.05) between chronic period and healthy controls.Conclusion TLR2 and TLR4 may be the specific recognizing receptors participated in the immune response in brucellosis and associated with the occurrence and development of brucellosis.

AIM: To observe the effect of osthole on tricalcium phosphate (TCP) particles-induced calvarial osteolysis in vivo.METHODS:Male ICR mice were randomly divided into sham group , TCP group and osthole group .A mouse calvarial model of osteolysis was established by TCP particles .On the second postoperative day , osthole (20 mg/kg) was locally injected into the calvarium under the periosteum 3 times a week.Two weeks after osthole treatment , blood and calvaria were collected to determine the level of bone turnover markers such as alkaline phosphatase ( ALP) , osteocalcin and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase ( TRACP) .The periosteum was performed to examine the release of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1βby ELISA.The calvaria was obtained for histological and molecular analyses.RESULTS:Data from HE and TRACP staining revealed that osthole prevented TCP particles-induced obvious increase in osteoclastogenesis and resorption area in the metaphysis of mouse calvaria .Osthole treatment increased ALP ac-tivity and osteocalcin level , and dncreased the activity of TRACP in the mouse serum compared with TCP group .Further-more, TCP particles-induced the releases of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1βwere significantly suppressed by osthole treatment .In addition, Western blot demonstrated that endoplasmic reticulum ( ER) stress markers such as glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and CAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) were significantly up-regulated in TCP parti-cles-implanted calvarial mice , indicating that TCP particles triggered an ER stress response in the mouse calvarial osteolysis model , which obviously attenuated by osthole .CONCLUSION:Osthole inhibits TCP particles-induced calvarial osteolysis in mice, which is mediated by inhibition of ER stress signaling pathway .

Objective To explore the alteration of brain pain functional areas in patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) overlap by rectal balloon volume stimulation and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the differences with IBS alone patients and healthy individuals were compared.Methods A total of 11 IBS alone patients,16 IBS overlapped with FD patients (IBS-FD) and 10 healthy controls were recruited.Sensory thresholds and visual analogue scale (VAS) were recorded during the rectal balloon air injection process. The changes of brain activated areas were analyzed by functional MRI (fMRI) when the rectum was stimulated at the volume of 50,100 and 150 ml.The data were analyzed by least significant difference (LSD) test.Results Under rectal volumetric stimulation,the sensory thresholds of IBS-FD group and IBS alone group were (53.14 ± 16.05) ml and (59.20 ± 20.55) ml and the difference was not statistically significant (LSD test,P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in VAS score between IBS alone group and IBS-FD group (LSD test,P＞0.05).Rectal stimulated under different volume,the results of fMRI indicated the activation of anterior cingulated cortex, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,postporietal cortex,thalamus and insular cortex in both IBS alone group and IBS-FD group.And there was no significant difference in activated areas and intensity between IBS alone group and IBS-FD group (LSD test,P＞0.05).Conclusions There was no significant difference in activations of brain areas between IBS alone and IBS-FD patients under rectal volumetric stimulation. Under rectal volumetric stimulation,although symptoms overlapped,there was no evidence of the overlap of braingut axis and visceral hypersensitivity between IBS alone and IBS-FD.

Objective To study serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and its correlation with accumulation degree of 99Tcm-MDP on bone and arthritis and to study the role of sICAM-1 in the diagnosis of patients with early RA. Methods Serum levels of sICAM-1 were measured by immunoenzymetic assay (ELISA). 99mTc-MDP scintigraphy was carried out for the same patients. The significant test between serum levels of sICAM-1 of three groups was performed with analysis of variance; Correlations between serum levels of sICAM-1 and index of semiquatitive 99Tcm-MDP were obtained using sperman's ranks correlation method. Results Compared with control group,serum levels of sICAM-1 were significantly higher in standard group (group A) (P<0.01) and non-standard group (group B) (P<0.05). No significant difference was found between group A and B(P>0.05). Serum levels of sICAM-1 were positively correlated with 99Tcm-MDP scintigraphy. Most patients of non-standard group and standard group showed visible medium-high uptake of 99Tcm-MDP. While control group had not obviously uptake of 99Tcm-MDP. Conclusion Serum levels of sICAM-1, semiquatitive 99Tcm-MDP scintigraphy, accumulation degree of radiopharmuceuutial on bone and arthritis are helpful for diagnosis of early rheumatoid arthritis and judge-ment of the clinical status and improvement of the prognosis.

Hyaluronan acid sodium gels are used in ophthalmic surgery, orthopedic treatment and cosmetic surgery. In 2009,there were 12 domestic manufacturers in China producing 33 kinds of products. 23 kinds of imported products were allowed by SFDA to sale in the meantime. Since manufacturers use different production processes, product performances are quite different. According to the GB/T 16886. 1-2001, we designed a pilot program to evaluate the sodium hyaluronate gel products comprehensively in this paper. The results showed that, except chromosome aberration test of gel A and subchronic systemic toxicity of gel C appeared positive, the remaining samples of the test results were negative. This article provides a reference to write standard of cross-linked hyaluronic sodium gel and the revision of standard YY0308-2004.
