Aim To investigate the apoptosis mechanism of human gastric cancer cell SGC-7901 induced by Omphalia lapidescens protein pPeOp.Methods CCK-8 and flow cytometry were used to detect the inhibitory effect of different concentrations of pPeOp(30, 60, 90 mg·L-1) on SGC-7901.The mRNA and protein expression of TNF-R1, Fas/FasL, Bcl-2, caspase-3 and caspase-8 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.Results SGC-7901 cells were treated with different concentrations of pPeOp(30, 60, 90 mg·L-1) for 24 h.CCK-8 test showed that there was no significant difference between PVP group and the control group.The survival rate of the 5-Fu group was(53.71±7.34)% (P<0.05).The survival rates of pPeOp group(30, 60, 90 mg·L-1) were(80.95±6.25)%, (53.48±5.70)% and(44.61±6.50)%(r=0.984,P=0.016),respectively.Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate of PVP group had no significant difference with control group, and the apoptosis rate of 5-Fu group was about(39.30±3.34)%(P<0.05).The apoptotic rates of pPeOp group(30, 60, 90 mg·L-1) were(10.90±1.25)%, (28.80±2.70)% and (32.00±3.50)%,respectively(P<0.05).The mRNA and protein expression levels of Bcl-2 were down-regulated,whereas the expression of TNF-R1, Fas/FasL, caspase-3 and caspase-8 were significantly up-regulated(P<0.05).Conclusions pPeOp can significantly inhibit the proliferation of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 and induce apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner.Death receptor pathway and mitochondrial pathway may be related to pPeOp-induced apoptosis of gastric cancer SGC-7901.

Objective:In this study,a prokaryotic expression of the 3-ketosteroid-Delta (1)-dehydrogenase (KSDD) which came from Arthrobacter simplex was built.Moreover,in order to investigate the catalytic mechanism of KSDD and improve its stability,the structure of KSDD was predicted by computer and the critical sites were confirmed by site-directed mutations.Methods:The recombinant plasmid was constructed by eukaryotic expression vector pET-22b and the recombinant strain was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3).High-performance liquid chromatography was used to determine the transformation rate of 4-AD to ADD.The KSDD structure and key sites were predicted by SWISS-MODEL.Site-directed mutations for the amino acid residues of key sites were constructed and activities of the mutations were detected.Results:The recombinant strain E.coli pET-22-ksdd was successfully constructed.It was induced to express the dehydrogenase by IPTG and the conversion rate of 4-AD to ADD was 27％ at 21 ℃.The structure of 3-ketosteroid-Delta (1)-dehydrogenase and the four key sites was analyzed by SWISS-MODEL.Four mutants,Y120R,Y320L,Y488F and G492Y were constructed.Mutants Y120R and Y488F were inactivated,so they were proved to be the key active sites of KSDD.The conversion rate of mutant Y320L was consistent with that of wild type,but the stability at 37 ℃ was improved.The conversion rate of mutant G492Y was 1.2 times of the wild type and the stability has been improved at 37 ℃.Conclusions:At present,there are few studies about the structure and catalytic mechanism of dehydrogenase.The active sites of the enzyme were verified by this study,which laid the foundation for the further study of the properties of the enzyme KSDD.

To study the effect and mechanism of Qingdu granules on the tumor growth of 7, 12-dimethyl-benz[ a] an-thracene ( DMBA)-induced breast cancer in Sprague-Dawley rats. Methods: DMBA was used to induce breast cancer in rats. The tumor inhibition of Qingdu granules was observed. Pathological features were observed after hematoxylin-eosin staining, the distribution and content of Ki-67 in tumor were tested by IHC and the content of IL-12, IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10 in serum was determined by ELISA. Results:The inhibitory rate of Qingdu granules at low, middle and high dose and saikosaponin a was 30. 93%,43. 84% and 44. 17% and 43. 48%, respectively. The expression of Ki-67 was reduced in Qingdu granules groups and saikosaponin a group, the content of IL-12 and IFN-γ in serum was increased and the level of IL-4 and IL-10 was reduced in the above groups. Conclusion:Qingdu granules can inhibit breast cancer obviously, and the mechanism is probably related to the ability of immune system adjustment, which can enhance the antitumor effect.

ObjectiveTo evaluate prognosis and its clinical factors in patients with primary pontine hemorrhage. Methods Patients with primary pontine hemorrhage who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College within 24 hours after stroke onset between April 2007 and April 2009 were registered conscutively. The patients were followed up for one year. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to analyze survival rate. Cox proportional hazards model was used to study risk factors for 1-year mortality. ResultsA total of 41 patients with primary pontine hemorrhage were studied. Their mean age was (63.5 ± 10. 1 ) years.The overall 1-year mortality rate was 61.0％, the median survival time was (80. 0 ±54.4) days (95％ CI 0-186. 64). After one-year follow-up, the mortality rate in patients with primary dorsal pontine hemorrhage( 18.2％ ) was significantly lower than that in patients with primary ventral pontine hemorrhage(72. 7％ ; x2 = 8. 800, P = 0. 003 ). Patients with massive primary pontine hemorrhage had significantly higher mortality rate than patients with dorsal primary pontine hemorrhage( x2 = 8. 927, P =0. 003). The average hematoma volume of the survivor group and mortality group was (3. 043 ± 1. 718) ml and (5. 984 ± 2. 707) ml, respectively, showing statistical significance (t = 3. 661, P = 0. 001 ). Analysis with Cox proportional hazards model showed that the risk factors associated with mortality were hematoma location ( RR = 2. 428, 95 ％ CI 1. 055-5. 587 ), hematoma volume ( RR = 1. 283, 95 ％ CI 1. 044-1. 577 ),GCS score on admission(RR =3. 389, 95％ CI 1. 177-9. 756). Patients with pontine hematomas in dorsal had a significantly better outcome than in other locations.Conclusions The survival and prognosis in primary dorsal pontine hemorrhage are better than with hemorrhaging in other parts of pontine. A significant correlation was observed between poor prognosis and hematoma volume, hematoma location and GCS score on admission.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel s can be induced to differentiate into dopaminergic neurons in vivo and in vitro, which provides a theoretical basis for stem cel transplantation in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease
OBJECTIVE:To explore the feasibility and mechanism of intracerebral transplantation of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel s for treatment of Parkinson’s disease rats.
METHODS:Intracerebral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine was used to make Parkinson’s disease models in SD rats. Twenty-two model rats were randomized into cel transplantation group (n=12) and control group (n=10) and respectively injected intracerebral y with umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel suspension and PBS. At 1-8 weeks after cel transplantation, intra-abdominal injection of apomorphine was performed every week to observe the rotation behaviors of rats;at the 2nd and 8th weeks, rat’s striatum and substantia nigra were taken for immunohistochemistry staining.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The rotation behaviors were gradual y decreased with time in the cel transplantation, but had no changes in the control group. At 3-8 weeks after transplantation, there were significant differences in the rotation behaviors between the two groups (P<0.05). At 2 weeks after transplantation, tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cel s were found within and around the striatum of the cel transplantation group;but there were no exogenous cel s in the control group. At 8 weeks after transplantation, there were stil active cel s and tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cel s in the striatum of cel transplantation group, and there was no tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the striatum of the control group. These findings suggest that transplanted umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel s can survive in the brain that are positive for tyrosine hydroxylase, which can improve the behavior abnormalities of Parkinson’s disease rats.

Objective:To evaluate the correlation between the timed up and go(TUG)test and fall risks in elderly frail patients.Methods:From July to September 2019, elderly frail patients who were treated at the cardiovascular department of our hospital were enrolled.Basic clinical data and fall-related information of patients were collected.Patients were divided into the fall group and the non-fall group.Results on the body mass index(BMI), TUG, 4-meter maximum walking speed(4 m MWS)and Barthel index were compared between the two groups.The correlation between TUG and each indicator was examined.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the TUG and falls in elderly patients.Results:A total of 96 eligible patients were enrolled, including 35 in the fall group and 61 in the non-fall group.The average TUG time was longer in the fall group than in the non-fall group(16.45±6.44 s vs.10.17±2.91 s, t=-6.556, P<0.001). The correlation analysis results showed that the TUG was correlated with falls and 4 m MWS( r=0.582 and 0.875, both P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the TUG( OR=1.201, 95% CI: 1.111-1.470, P=0.004)and 4 m MWS( OR=1.146, 95% CI: 1.063-1.244, P=0.015)were risk factors for falls. Conclusions:The TUG is correlated with fall risks in elderly frail patients and should be recommended as a routine test in clinical practice.

Abstract: Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) gene is one of the most commonly mutated oncogenes. It has been found that KRAS inhibitors have the potential therapeutic effect on cancer patients with this gene mutation. In this study, machine learning was applied to develop a QSAR(quantitative structure-activity relationship) model for KRAS small molecule inhibitors. A total of 1857data points of IC50 and SMILES(simplified molecular input line entry system) for KRAS inhibitors were collected from three databases: ChEMBL, BindingDB, and PubChem. And nine different classifiers were constructed using three different feature screening methods combined with three machine learning models, namely, random forest, support vector machine, and extreme gradient boosting machine. The results showed that the SVM model combined with mutual information feature selection exhibited the best performance: AUCtest=0.912, ACCtest=0.859, F1test=0.890. Moreover, it also demonstrated good predictive performance on the external validation set(AUCExt=0.944, RecallExt=0.856, FPRExt=0.111). This study provides a new technical route for KRAS inhibitor screening in natural product databases using artificial intelligence methods.

The spike gene of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) was sequenced from 55 South China field strains isolated from pigs with symptoms of diarrhea. The sequences were compared within the set of field strains as well as with reference strains available in GenBank. Within the 55 South China PEDV field strains, the deduced amino acid sequence identities ranged from 93.8% to 99.9 % and ranged from 90.7% to 99.5% when compared with the foreign reference strains in GenBank. Our phylogenetic analysis showed that 10 of the 55 South China PEDV strains belonged to G1b and 45 belonged to G2b.

Objective:To analyze the plasma metabolomic characteristics of elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction and identify potential metabolic makers.Methods:Thirty elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were enrolled into the myocardial infarction group and thirty elderly people recruited at the physical examination center and meeting the inclusion criteria served as the control group.Plasma metabolites were measured by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry.Information about metabolites was searched and sorted via the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)database.Principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis were carried out to compare overall trends and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for preliminary screening of differential metabolites in the two groups.Then the Mann-Whitney U test and a model of mutual information with random forests were used to analyze the importance of differential metabolites.A tandem liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based approach was subsequently performed for targeted detection of the content of differential metabolites in the two groups, and the t-test was used for comparison between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus between the two groups( P>0.05), while the plasma troponin T level in the myocardial infarction group was significantly higher than that in the control group, (2.16±0.36)μg/L vs.(0.26±0.03)μg/L( t=5.17, P<0.05). A clear difference in the overall trend was presented on the scatter plot of PCA and OPLS-DA, and a total of 32 differential metabolites met the preliminary screening criteria.Further analysis showed that pyrocatechol and 4 small peptides were closely correlated with grouping and was strongly predictive of group designation.Targeted quantification revealed the pyrocatechol concentration was(310.3±40.0)ng/L in the myocardial infarction group and(2 607.0±758.1)ng/L in the control group.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant( P<0.01). Conclusions:Plasma pyrocatechol has the potential to be metabolic marker of acute myocardial infarction in elderly patients and might be closely related to the occurrence and prognosis of this disease.
