2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and sodium monochloroacetate were employed to synthesize [2-(Methacryloyloxy)ethyl] dimethyl ammonium acetate (CBMA) functional monomer.CBMA was grafted on the surface of silica by surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) to obtain silica-CBMA hydrophilic interaction stationary phase.Three silica-CBMA stationary phases with different grafted density of CBMA monomer were synthesized in SI-ATRP progress by changing the concentration of CBMA under the same conditions.The ability to separate organic acid compounds of the synthesized silica-CBMA stationary phases was evaluated under different conditions, including effects of pH value, salt concentration and content of water of mobile phase on retention of solutes.The results showed that the stationary phases could effectively separate organic acid compounds in HILIC mode, which followed a mixed mode of chromatography of ion exchange and hydrophilic interaction.The retention of solutes decreased with the increases of salt concentration of mobile phase, which consistent with the characteristics of ion exchange;the pH value of mobile phase had significant influence on ionization of the stationary phase and solutes, i.e., the retention of solutes increased as the increasing of pH value of mobile phase.However, the retention of solutes decreased with the increasing of the content of water in mobile phase, which was the typical characteristic of HILIC.The method of hydrophilic interaction chromatography combined with silica-CBMA stationary phases could conveniently determinate the content of vitamin C and rutin in rutin tablets, providing a new method for the separation and determination of strong polar samples.

In order to evaluate the effect of mitofusin-2 gene (mfn2) on proliferation and chemotherapy sensitivity of human breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 in vitro, pEGFPmfn2 plasmid carrying full length of mitofusin-2 gene was transfected, by using sofast, into MCF-7 cells. Mitofusin-2 gene expression in MCF-7 cells transfected by sofast after 48 h was detected by PCR and Western blotting, and the stable expression of GFP protein in MCF-7 cells by Western blot analysis. The proliferation of MCF-7 cells was assayed by MTT and cell counting. By using PI method, the effects of mfn2 on the cell cycle distribution of MCF-7 were measured. Annexin-V/PI double labeling method was employed to detect the changes in apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutics before and after transfection. The results showed that the MCF-7 cells transfected with mfn2 gene could stably and highly express GFP protein. MTT assay revealed that after transfection of mfn2 cDNA, the proliferation of MCF-7 cells was significantly inhibited. DNA histogram showed that cells arrested in S phase, and the percentage of S phase cells was 42.7, 17.2 and 19.6 in mfn2 cDNA transfection group, blank plasmid transfection group and blank control group, respectively (P<0.05). The apoptosis ratio of the cells transfected with mfn2 gene was increased from 3.56% to 15.95%, that of the cells treated with camptothecin (CAMP) followed by mfn2 gene transfection was 69.6%, and that in blank plasmid transfection group and blank control group was 31.0% and 23.4% respectively (P<0.05). It was suggested that transfection of mfn2 gene could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells and promote their sensitivity to CAMP with a synergic effect.

Objective To explore the safety of mobilization and collection as well as the feasibility of selection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells (auto-PBSC) from patients with juvenile severe autoimmune diseases (AID) for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT). The clinical significance of these procedure is evaluated. Methods Eight patients with AID, including four patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE),two patients with dermatomysoitis, one patient with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), one patient with multiple sclerosis(MS),underwent auto-HSCT. Auto-PBSCs were mobilized in 8 patients using cyclophosphamide(CTX) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and their PBSCs were collected by CS-3000 Blood Cell Separator, then the CD34+cells were selected and purified by CliniMACS CD34+cell selection device. The CD34+ cells were frozenand preserved under -80 ℃ ALL patients received non-myeloablative or lymphoablative conditioning regimens which consisted of CTX/Mel/ATG or CTX/ATG or BEAM/ATG. All patient received CD34+ cells transplantation. The safety of mobilization and collection process of auto-PBSC as well asthe feasibility of selection and purification of CD34+cells were recorded and hematopoietic reconstruction were evaluated. Results All patients tolerated the collection process well, and there was no mobilization-related mortality. The number of collected MNCs and CD34+ cells were 8.35×108/kg and 7.92×106/kg respectively. The number of CD34+ and CD3+ cells after purification was 6.28×106/kg and0.71 ×105/kg respectively. The mean granulocytes and platelet engraftment occurred on days 11 and 15 after G-CSF regimen, and they can be collected using CS-3000 instrument. PBSC mobilization and collection from patients with juvenile severe AID is safe. The CD34+ cell can be highly purified. The auto-PBSC CD34+cell transplantation is an alternative therapy for severe AIDs that do not respond to conventional treatments.
