Objective To investigate the effect of microRNA-204(miR-204)on autophagy in U251. Methods Inhibition of miR-204 in U251 cell lines was done by transfection of miR-204 inhibitor(AMO-204) .Cell viability was detected by MTT assay.The autophagy of U251 was tested by immunofluorescence tech-nique.The protein level of Beclin 1,LC3 and Bcl-2 was detected by Western blot.Results Cell viability was markedly increased after inhibition of miR-204 in U251 cells.The number of autophagosome was decreased.The levels of Beclin 1 and LC3 were decreased,the protein level of Bcl-2 was significant increased by transfection of AMO-204 in U251 cells(P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-204 might at least in part promote glioma via inhibi-ton autophagy,indicating that miR-204 might be a potential target for the treatment of glioma.

Objective To identify the transcriptional start site and clone a novel transcript variant of MYCT1(Myc target 1)for further study of its structure and function. Methods Transcriptional start site was confirmed using MYCT1 conserved sequence by 5′-RACE method and a novel MYCT1 isoform was cloned by splicing with 3′-RACE PCR product. Then,the cDNA or amino acid sequence between MYCT1 and its isoform was compared using bioinformatics server. Finally,the expression profile of this novel transcript in different cell lines was detected through RT-PCR. Re-sults A 1 106 bp transcript named MYCT1-TV(Myc target 1 transcript variant 1)was successfully cloned,and its transcriptional start site was confirmed which located at 140 bp upstream of the ATG start codon of MYCT1-TV. MYCT1-TV shows no obviously structural difference with MYCT1 and is widely expressed in various cell lines. Conclusion The transcriptional start site analysis and MYCT1-TV cloning provide an experi-mental basis for the further exploration and understanding of the function and the transcriptional regulation mechanism of MYCT1.

Abstract?AlM: To assess the efficacy and safety of trypan blue and indocyanine green ( lCG ) for continuous curvilineal capsulorrhexis ( CCC ) in mature or hypermature phacoemulsification.?METHODS: A total of 122 eyes of 122 cases with cataracts in mature and hypermature were randomly divided into three groups, trypan blue staining group was 46 eyes of 46 cases as group A, lCG staining group was 40 eyes of 40 cases as group B, control group was 36 eyes of 36 cases as group C. Staining groups were used to 0. 2mL trypan blue or lCG injected into the anterior chamber during operation, respectively. The success rate of CCC, lens posterior capsule rupture and implanted intraocular lens pouch were observed and compared during operation. Anterior chamber inflammation was observed after operation, and compared with the control group to observe and analysis.? RESULTS: The success rate of CCC, implanted intraocular lens pouch were statistically significant difference in trypan blue staining group ( group A ) than that in control group (group C) (P<0. 05). lmplanted intraocular lens pouch was statistically significant difference in lCG group ( group B ) than that in control group ( group C ) ( P<0. 05 ) . The rate of lens posterior capsule rupture was no statistically significant difference in all three groups ( P > 0. 05 ) . Anterior chamber inflammation was no significant difference in the postoperative reaction among the three groups.?CONCLUSlON:The application of trypan blue or lCG for lens capsule staining before CCC in lack of red reflective mature and hypermature cataracts is safe and effective, both results are comparable. lt guarantees a complete CCC and improves the success rate of phacoemulsification.

Orbital surgery is one of the most complex surgeries in ophthalmology, with many clinical ethics issues.This paper aims to analyze the implementation process of all kinds of orbital surgeries in the view of ethics, and to explore the relevant clinical ethical issues and countermeasures during the orbital surgery.

Objective To explore the mechanism by which recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) protects liver function and alleviates portal hypertension in rats with liver cirrhosis. Methods Male S.D. rats with thioacetamide-induced liver cirrhosis were randomly assigned to receive separately normal saline (NS, 0.5 ml) or rhGH(333 ng/kg body weight) daily by subcutaneous injection for up to 7 days. After the respective treatments, changes of GH-binding capacity (R T), GHRmRNA, relative content of collagen (RCC), malon-dialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) in liver tissue, serum albumin and ALT and portal vein pressure (PVP) were examined. Results R T (fmol/mg protein) of GHR was respectively 31?4, 40?7(P

Objective To investigate the developmental profiles on surface expression and colocalization of NMDA receptor and AMPA receptor on dendritic structures in cultured hippocampal neurons of rats. Methods Two vectors expressing green fluorescent protein tagged GluR1 subunit(GFP-GluR1) and FLAG tagged NR2B subunit(FLAG-NR2B) were co-transfected into cultured hippocampal neurons at 5 days in vitro(DIV5).Surface expressed GFP-GluR1 containing AMPA receptor clusters and FLAG-NR2B containing NMDA receptor clusters were then labeled in living neurons by using anti-GFP primary antibody followed by Alex488-conjugated secondary antibody,and anti-FLAG primary antibody followed by Cy3-conjugated secondary antibody.Furthermore,distribution of the surface clusters was observed on the detailed dendritic structures visualized with co-expression of cyan fluorescent protein tagged actin(CFP-Actin). Results The numbers for GluR1 containing AMPA receptor clusters,NR2B containing NMDA receptor clusters,and colocalized receptor clusters per 100*!?m dendrite in DIV7 and DIV14 neurons were 59.2?5.6 and 74.8?3.1(P

Objective Hermaphroditic planarians possess a very important position in the systematic evolutionary history of animal, as they are capacity of complete regeneration. Hence, the research on histological structure of autofluorescence has been carried out to provide a crucial insight into the developmental and regenerative biology. Methods Part of histological structure of planarian (Dugesia japonica) was revealed with HE method, Masson method and Van Gieson method. Their autofluorescence was observed with ultraviolet. There were six planarians in each stained group and the autofluorescence group. Results Epidermis, outer epidermis of pharynx, protonephridium, intestine, the photoreceptor cells and longitudinal nerve cords, all radiated blue autofluorescence. The epithelial dissociation side of copulatory bursa radiated yellow autofluorescence, its middle part radiated blue autofluorescence, its fundus side radiated weakly blue autofluorescence. Testis could hardly give off autofluorescence. Pigment cells of eyepot could not give off autofluorescence. Conclusion The research on configuration and autofluorescence of planarian eye may offer help for the study of origin and evolutionary law on eye of invertebrate.
