ObjectiveTo screen a 12-mer phage display peptide library by the polyclonal antibody (pAb) against the recombinant adhesion protein of Mycoplasma genitalium (rMgPa) in order to obtain the antigenic mimic epitopes of MgPa.MethodsThe purified pAb was used to screen the immunodominant mimic epitopes of MgPa by a random 12-peptide phage display library.Seventy-four recombinant phage clones were randomly selected,and then DNA sequence analysis and computer-based bioinformatics analysis were performed to define the consensus amino acid residues of the mimotopes by MIMOX.The binding specificities of the selected phage-displayed peptides to the purified pAb were confirmed by ELISA,competitive ELISA and Western blot analysis.Results After four rounds of biopanning,a significant enrichment of phages was achieved,the inserts from 74 phage clones distinguished 45 peptides based on the different amino acids sequences.Amongst 45 peptides,36 peptides were ELISA positive and 23 peptides that absorbance values were higher than 1.5 showed high reactivities with pAb and effectively inhibited the binding of pAb to rMgPa.Immunoscreening via phage display peptide library revealed three different mimptopes of adhesion protein of M.genitalium,P-S-A-A/V-X-R-F/W-E/S-L-S-P,A-K-I/L-T/Q-X-T-L-X-L and K-S-L-S-R-X-D-X-I.Results of bioinformatics analysis by MIMOX demonstrated that S,A,F for cluster 1,A,K,I,T and L for cluster 2,K,S,L,R,D and I for cluster 3,may be the key consensus amino acid residues in the aligned mimotopes,respectively.ConclusionAntigenic mimics on MgPa were successfully identified and the motif P-S-A-A/V-X-R-F/W-E/S-L-S-P,A-K-I/L-T/Q-X-T-L-X-L and K-S-L-S-R-X-D-X-I may represent the immunodominant mimic epitopes of MgPa.And S,A,F K,I,T,L,R and D may be the key amino acid residues for the epitopes of MgPa.

Objective To investigate whether macrophage-activating lipopeptide-2 ( MALP-2) in-duces the expression of heme oxygenase-1 ( HO-1 ) in THP-1 cells and its possible mechanism .Methods Human monocyte cells THP-1 were cultured in vitro and then were incubated with various concentrations (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 or 5.0 ng/ml) of MALP-2 for 16 h, or were stimulated by 5.0 ng/ml MALP-2 for different length of time (0 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h or 24 h).The expression of HO-1 at mRNA and protein levels were detected by real-time PCR analysis and Western blot assay .The enzyme activity of HO-1 was detected by colorimetric analysis.THP-1 cells were pre-incubated with 30 μmol/L of SB203580, PD98059 and SP600125 for 30 min and then were cultured with 5.0 ng/ml MALP-2 for 16 h to investigate the role of mito-gen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) signaling pathway in HO-1 production.After incubating THP-1 cells with 5.0 ng/ml MALP-2 for different periods of time, NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) protein was detected by Western blot assay to study the effects of Nrf2 pathway on MALP-2-induced HO-1 expression.Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins were measured by Western blot assay after transfecting THP-1 cells (1×106/well) with Nrf2 siRNA at a final concentration of 100 nmol/L.Results MALP-2 enhanced the expression of HO-1 at mRNA and protein levels as well as the enzyme activity of HO-1 in THP-1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.The expression of HO-1 protein induced by MALP-2 was significantly inhibited by 30 μmol/L MAPKs specific inhibitors ( SB203580 , PD98059 and SP600125 ) .MALP-2 induced Nrf2 translocation at a concentration of 5.0 ng/ml.The expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins were significantly decreased in Nrf 2 siRNA-transfected THP-1 cells.Conclusion MAPKs and Nrf2 signaling pathways were involved in the MALP-2 induced HO-1 expression .

Objective To study the clinical effect of laparoscopic vaginoplasty using pedicled ileal and sigmoid colon segment.Methods From January 2004 to December 2009,105 cases undergoing laparoscope-assisted vaginoplasty using a vascularized pedicled intestinal flap were studied retrospectively.Operation time,blood loss in operating,bowel movement after operation,postoperation hospital duration,side effect,and artificial vagina were compared between two surgical management.Results The vaginoplasty were preformed successfully in all 105 cases.There were 48 patients treated by aparoscopeassisted ileal vaginoplasty and 57 patients treated by laparoscope-assisted sigmoid colon vaginoplasty.The values of the operation time [(141 ±22) minutes versus (159 ± 18) minutes,P =0.000],blood loss in operating [(42 ±6) ml versus (83 ± 14) ml,P =0.000],bowel movement after operation (36 ±9) hours versus (68 ±8)hours(P =0.000),and postoperation hospital duration [(9.8 ±2.0) days versus (11.1 ± 1.3) days,P =0.004] in the sigmoid colon vaginoplasty group were longer or higher than those in ileal vaginoplasty group (P < 0.05).No intraoprative complication occurred.There were four postoperative complications:2 cases with intestinal obstruction in sigmoid colon vaginoplasty group,1 case with urethral orifice stenosis and 1 case with vaginal-rectal fistula in ileal vaginoplasty group.At follow-up of 6-62 months,all artificial vaginas had a capacity of over two fingers in wideness and 12-15 cm in length.Vaginal discharges resembled a milky white water or mucus without odour.Fifty-five patients with sexual intercourse reported satisfactory results.Six patients complained vaginal stenosis:5 patients in ileal vaginoplasty group and 1 patient in sigmoid colon vaginoplasty group.Conclusions Laparoscope-assisted vaginoplasty using pedicled ileum or sigmoid colon segment are both the effective ways in forming vagina.The latter management takes more time and blood loss while operating,yet the incidence of vaginal opening contracture appeared to be decreasing trend.
