1.Runx2 regulation and its isoforms
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(10):-
Runx2 is a transcription factor essential for osteoblast differentiation and bone formation.Expression of Runx2 is initiated from two promoters,the distal P1 promoter and the proximal P2 promoter.These promoters give rise to two major protein isoforms with distinct amino termini,named as Runx2-TypeI and Runx2-TypeII.Here we review some integrated complex pathways(Wnt/LRP5/?-catenin,BMP/Smads/DPC4,Vitamin D/VDR/VDRE pathway,etc) and several key proteins(Msx2,Dlx5,Twists,etc) necessary for regulating Runx2 activity and bone formation,which give us new hints on controlling osteoblast differentiation by drug therapy and treating osteoporosis by gene therapy.

Objective To compare the in vitro antitumor immune responses induced by bivalent bispecific anti-idiotype antibody G22-I50 and monovalent anti-idiotype antibody G22 and I50, and explore its possible mechanism. Methods Proteins G22-I50, G22, and I50 were induced and identified by Western blot and ELISA. Peripheral blood monoclear cells (PBMC) were isolated and stimulated with G22-I50, G22, and I50 anti-idiotype antibodies, respectively. MTT assay and LDH release test were employed to examine the proliferation and cytotoxicity of the PBMC. The levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-4 in the supernatant were detected by ELISA and changes of T lymphocyte subsets were determined by flow cytometry. Results Western blot showed that G22-I50, G22, and I50 had specific binding capabilities to FC2 (Ab1). The activities of G22-I50, G22, and I50 had recovered and these proteins could be used in the in vitro study. The proliferation and cytotoxicity of the PBMC stimulated with G22-I50 were significantly higher than those stimulated with G22 or I50, The level of IFN-γ and IL-2 in the culture supernatant of the PBMC stimulated with G22-I50 was higher than that in the G22 or I50 group, but the level of IL-4 did not increase.Compared with the G22 or I50 group, the proportion of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and CD4+/CD8+ ratio significantly increased, and the proportion of CD4+CD25+ T cells significantly decreased in the PBMC stimulated with G22-I50. Conclusion G22-I50 has more potent immunogenicity and would enhance specific antitumor effect which might relate to improving PBMC proliferation, inducing the secretion of Th1 type cytokines, activating CD8+T cells, and suppressing the expression of CD4+CD25+ T cells.

Objective To evaluate the value of fecal high mobility group box-1 (HMGB 1 ) in early diagnosis and prediction of the severity of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Methods From July 2013 to June 2015 , the neonates who had distention, vomit, or gross blood in stool and were suspected of NEC were recruited as NEC group while hospitalized children without abdominal distension, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, or other gastrointestinal symptoms were recruited as the control group. Stool samples were collected on day 1 , 3 , 5 and 7 after admission. The level of HMGB 1 was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results In the end, there were 46 cases in NEC group and 15 cases in control group. In NEC group, 29 cases were conifrmed of stageⅠof NEC by abdominal radiograph within 24 h after hospitalized, all of them were deteriorated to stageⅡphase in 4 days, and 10 cases were deteriorated to stageⅢ. Seventeen cases were conifrmed of stageⅡby abdominal radiograph within 24 h after hospitalized, 7 cases were deteriorated to stageⅢ. In 17 stageⅢcases, 11 cases received surgical treatment and 6 cases gave up. Eight cases survived and 3 died after surgery. The levels of HMGB 1 in NEC group on day 1 , 3 , 5 and 7 after hospitalized were higher than those in control group (P0 . 05 ). With the exacerbation of NEC from stage I toⅢ, the levels of HMGB 1 increased gradually (P0 . 05 ). Conclusions With the exacerbation of NEC, the level of HMGB 1 is gradually increased, which indicates that it has certain clinical value in early diagnosis and prediction of severity of NEC.

Objective To obtain I50 anti-idiotype antibody and identify its activity in vitro.Methods I50 anti-idiotype (Id) antibody gene was amplified from the template of fuse 5-I50 by PCR to construct a prokaryotic expression vector pET25b-I50. The expression of pET25b-I50 in E. coli BL21(DE3) was induced by isopropylthio-β-D-galactopyranoside (IPTG) and was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot with Ab1(FC2) monoclonal antibody and an anti-hexahistidine tag antibody. The method of dialysis refolding was used to restore the activity of I50 anti-Id antibody, which was measured by Dot-ELISA and lymphocyte proliferation assay. Results The recombinant vector was successfully constructed and the recombinant protein was successfully expressed and purified with 90% purity. The relative molecular weight of the expressed protein was 15 kD, which was in accordance with expectation. The activity of I50 anti-Id antibody could be restored and could promote the proliferation of lymphocyte in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion These results suggested that I50 anti-Id protein vaccine is likely an option in the therapy against nasopharyngeal carcinoma in vivo.
