Objective To screen rhEndoglin-binding peptides from phage displayed 12-peptide library. Methods The rhEndoglin was used as target protein for biopanning of phage-displayed 12-peptide library. After three rounds of screening, 16 phage clones were randomly selected and identified by sandwich ELISA. The positive phage clones were sequenced, and the fuse peptides were deduced by the DNA sequence. Further we identified the affinity and speciality by competitive inhibition test. Results Six of 16 phage clones were identified as positive clones by competent ELISA which could bind to rhEndoglin. Five sequences were obtained, and the amino acid sequence in two of these five was AHKHVHHVPVRL. Conclusion The rhEndoglin-binding peptides can be obtained by screening phage random peptide library. It could play an important role in early diagnosis of ovarian cancer.

Objective To assess functional affinity of rhEndoglin conjugated eptide in order to identify the affinity.Methods We measured the functional affinity of rhEndoglin conjugated eptide with non-competitive ELISA method.After coating the peptide by BSA binding with glutaral couple,affirming the best concentration,best time of peptide to coat the plate and the coating coefficient,and the proper binding time of peptide to Endoglin to reach an equilibrium,we plotted the standard curve of the binding reaction of peptide and Endoglin.Results The affinity constant of peptide and anti-hEndoglin IgG is respectively(2.956?0.749)?106mol/L and(7.403?10.76) ?108mol/L.Conclusion The peptide we got from the peptide liberary can strongly bind to Endoglin,providing a theoretical basis for its clinical use.

AIM: To assess the degree of oxidative damage during acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion, and to clarify the protective effect of Tongxinluo in mini-swine model. METHODS: Thirty mini-swines were randomized into 5 study groups: sham group, model group, low dose (0.05 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), medium dose (0.2 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) and high dose (0.5 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) of Tongxinluo groups (pretreated with Tongxinluo for 3 d). Animals except in sham group were subjected to 3 h of coronary occlusion followed by 1 h of reperfusion. Concentrations of total antioxidative capability (T-AOC), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in blood sample and the myocardium were measured. RESULTS: (1) T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in serum significantly decreased (all P<0.05), while MDA significantly increased (P<0.01) at 3 h after AMI in comparison with those at baseline. Compared to those at 3 h after AMI, the contents of T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH at 1 h after reperfusion significantly decreased (all P<0.01), accompanied by increase of MDA (P<0.01). (2) Compared to those in normal area, levels of T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in reperfusion myocardium decreased significantly (all P<0.01) and MDA increased significantly (P<0.01). T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in no-reflow myocardium further decreased (all P<0.01) and MDA increased (P<0.01) as compared to those in reperfusion myocardium. (3) Compared to model group, medium dose of Tongxinluo increased the contents of T-AOC and T-SOD and reduced MDA production in serum at 3 h after AMI (all P<0.05), while medium dose of Tongxinluo increased T-SOD level at 1 h after reperfusion (P<0.05). High dose of Tongxinluo increased the levels of T-AOC and T-SOD and decreased MDA content in serum at 3 h after AMI and 1 h after reperfusion (all P<0.05). (4) The medium dose of Tongxinluo increased T-AOC content (P<0.05) and reduced MDA (P<0.05) in reperfusion myocardium, while high dose of Tongxinluo increased T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH (all P<0.05), reduced MDA (P<0.01) in reperfusion myocardium, and also increased T-AOC, T-SOD (all P<0.05), reduced MDA (P<0.01) in no-reflow area as compared to those in model group. CONCLUSION: Impairment of antioxidant defense system in vivo and imbalance of redox homeostasis in myocardium region might play an important role in the pathogenesis of no-reflow after myocardial acute infarction following reperfusion. Tongxinluo protects myocardium from reperfusion injury by improving antioxidant defense and attenuating oxidative damage.

Objective To investigate the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in tracking magnetically labeled mesenchymal stem cells (MR-MSCs) in a swine myocardial infarction (MI) model.Methods Adult Chinese mini-pigs (n = 6) were subjected to open-chest experimental MI operation.Their antegeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs ) was cultured and doubly labeled with ferumoxides and DAPL On the 14 th day after MSCs transplantation, the size and location of the myocardial infarction were assessed by using delayed-enhancement MRI (DE-MRI). Then the labeled MSCs were injected intramyocardially into peri-infarct zone and normal myocardium. At 24 hrs and 3 weeks after injection, the contrast and the volume of the MR-MSCs hypointense lesion from the MR images were acquired, and the contrast was determined using the difference in signal intensity between the hypointense and normal myocardium divided by signal intensity of the normal region.After humane euthanasia, the heart was excised and histology corresponding to MRI slices that demonstrated MR-MSCs lesions was performed.Repeated-measures ANOVA and a paired t test were used for comparison of the contrast and the volume of the MR-MSCs hypointense lesion at different time points. Comparisons between independent groups were performed with the standard Student t test.Results The labeling efficiency of ferumoxides and DAPI was 100% . On the 14 th day after the MI operation, the average percentage of infracted myocardial area was (33.6±8.9)% .Twenty- four hours after MSCs transplantation, MSCs injection sites appeared as ovoid hypointensive lesions with sharp border on T2 * images. At 24 h after injection, the signal contrast [(67.00±5.48)% vs (61.92 ±7.76)%,t = 1.65,P =0.1158] and the size [(0.56 ±0.24) cm2 vs (0.52 ± 0.25 ) cm2, t = 0.39, P = 0.7044 ] of the lesions showed no statistical difference between the peri infarct zone and the normal myocardium.At 3 weeks after injection, the signal contrast decreased and the size diminished both in the peri-infarct zone and in the normal myocardium. Moreover, the contrast of the lesions in peri-infarct zone decreased more significantly than that in normal myocardium [(26.88 +7.27)%vs (15.00 :t:4.51)%, F =20.08, P =0.0003].Post mortem analysis found the fluorescontly labeled MSCs demonstrated on histological sections.There were much more dense fluorescently labled MSCs per high power fields at injection sites of normal myocardium than at injection sites of peri-infarct zone [ (106 ±25 )/HPF vs ( 143 ± 31 )/HPF, t = - 2.47, P = 0.0293 ].In MSCs injection sites of the peri-infarct zone,the capillary density was significantly higher than that in control sites [ (13.4 ± 4.0 )/HPF vs (9.4 ±3.1 )/HPF, t = 2.49, P = 0.0229].At 3 weeks after injection, ferumoxide was contained within partial original MSCs.Conclusion Magnetic resonance imaging of MSCs is a feasible method for the in vivo tracking of transplanted stem cells and could reflect the tendency of the local stem cell quantity, but there still has limitation for the semi-quantitation of the transplanted stem cells.

Objective:To study the regulatory effect of Wumen-Yiji powder on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) signal transduction system in intestine and hypothalamus of diarrhea irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) model rats. Methods:Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group (10 rats) and diarrhea irritable bowel syndrome group (50 rats). The diarrhea irritable bowel syndrome group formed the diarrhea irritable bowel syndrome model after 2 weeks of senna leaf gavage and restraint stress. They were randomly divided into model group, deshute group (1.5 mg/kg), low, medium and high dose group of Wumen-Yiji San (6, 12, 24 g/kg), with 10 rats in each group. After continuous administration for 2 weeks, the contents of 5-HT in serum, colon and hypothalamus were detected by ELISA; HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of colon in each group. The protein and mRNA levels of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH-1), serotonin receptor 3 (5-HT3R), serotonin receptor 4 (5-HT4R), serotonin transporter (SERT) in colon and hypothalamus were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR, respectively. Results:Compared with the model group, the pathological morphology of colon in each treatment group was improved. Compared with the model group, the level of 5-HT in serum and colon significantly decreased ( P<0.05), and the level of 5-HT in hypothalamus of rats in the low, medium, high dose group of Wumen-Yiji San significantly increased ( P<0.05). The expression of TPH-1, 5-HT3R and 5-HT4R protein significantly decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of SERT protein in the medium, high dose group of Wumen-Yiji San significantly increased ( P<0.05). The expression of TPH-1, 5-HT3R and 5-HT4R protein in hypothalamus increased ( P<0.05), and the expression of SERT protein in the high dose group of Wumen-Yiji San significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The mRNA levels of TPH-1 (4.778 ± 0.604, 3.278 ± 0.668, 1.670 ± 0.361 vs. 6.877 ± 0.148), 5-HT3R (3.807 ± 0.463, 2.697 ± 0.455, 1.132 ± 0.136 vs. 6.322 ± 0.778), 5-HT4R (4.521 ± 0.234, 2.801 ± 0.351, 1.331 ± 0.142 vs. 6.741 ± 0.293) in colon tissue of low, medium and high dose groups of Wumen-Yiji San decreased ( P<0.05). The level of 5-HT4R mRNA (0.616 ± 0.208, 0.726 ± 0.226 vs. 0.521 ± 0.062) increased ( P<0.05), and the level of SERT mRNA (1.563 ± 1.023 vs. 2.612 ± 1.035) in medium, high dose group of Wumen-Yiji San decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The result showed that Wumen-Yiji San could regulate the expression of 5-HT signaling system relating proteins and mRNA in the colon and hypothalamus of IBS-D rats within a certain dose range, so as to improve the symptoms of IBS-D.
