In order to investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of recombinant polypeptide CH50 on invasion and metastasis of melanoma B16 cells, the recombinant polypeptide CH50 was separated and purified by ion exchange chromatographic technique. The melanoma B16 cells treated with purified CH50 were cultured in vitro, the number was counted at 4, 24, 48 and 72 h and their morphological changes were observed in order to detect their adhesion and spreading abilities. In in vivo study, the melanoma B16 cells were labeled with CFSE and treated with CH50 and then they were injected into mice via mouse-tail veins. After 5 h, the lung tissues were fixed by frozen section. Accumulation and invasion abilities of B16 cells on lung tissues were observed under the fluorescent microscopy. The results showed that the morphological character of B16 cells treated with CH50 changed greatly and the number of B16 cells treated with CH50 decreased significantly (P<0.05). The adhesion and spreading abilities of B16 cells treated with CH50 were weakened obviously and the metastasis foci on lung tissues reduced. It was concluded that the recombinant polypeptide CH50 inhibited invasion and metastasis of melanoma B16 cells on tissues and could be a prospective bio-product in tumor general therapy.

Objective To study the influence of Noradrenergic systems in Lateral Hypothalamus Area (LHA) on small intestine moving. Methods The effect of noradrenalin、noradrenalin+phentolamine、noradrenalin+propolol、phentolamine on small intestines electro-activity of rats was detected by external alimentary canal electrodes and central nervous system stereo-configuration technology. Results After injecting 2 g/L noradrenaline (NE) the cyclic period of MMC extended, the ratio of the active time to the cyclic period and the number of the fast wave within the active time per minute reduced. NE inhibited the electro-activity of small intestine of rats, and the average effective time was (36.86?7.39)min. Hence injecting 5 g/L PE alone to LHA raised the ratio of the MMC active time to the cyclic period. Phentolamine presented a slight excitability on the electro-activity of small intestine of rats. Conclusion The NE in LHA showed the inhibitive myoelectric activity on small intestines, and this effect was introduced through a acceptor,The reacceptor in LHA may function in the inhibition of the electro-activity in small intestines.

Objective To study the transcriptional regulation of vp1667 by H-NS in Vibrio parahaemolyticus.Methods Total RNAs were extracted from Δhns and WT strains.Quantitative RT-PCR was carried out to calculate the transcriptional variation of vp1667 between Δhns and WT.Primer extension assay was also employed to detect the transcription start site and the promoter activity (i.e.the amount of primer extension products) of vp1667 in Δhns and that in WT.The promoter DNA region of vp1667 was amplified, purified, and cloned into the corresponding restriction endonuclease sites of pHRP309 that harbors a gentamicin resistance gene and a promoterless lacZ reporter gene.The recombinant pHRP309 plasmid was transformed into Δhns and WT, respectively, while β-galactosidase activity in cellular extracts was measured using a β-galactosidase enzyme assay system.The over-expressed His-H-NS was purified under native conditions with nickel loaded HiTrap Chelating Sepharose columns.The electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and DNaseⅠ footprinting were then applied to analyze the DNA-binding activity of His-H-NS to vp1667 promoter region in vitro.Results and Conclusion The primer extension assay detected one transcription start site for vp1667, which was located at 28 bp upstream of vp1667, and its transcribed activity was under the negative control of the H-NS.The EMSA and DNaseⅠ footprinting assay results showed that His-H-NS was unable to bind to the promoter-proximal DNA region of vp1667, suggesting that H-NS indirectly inhibits the transcription of vp1667.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between serum tissue inhibitors of metaUoproteinase-1 and children with myocarditis,and provide evidences to support the measurement of serum tissue inhibitors of metallopro- teinase-1. Methods Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinaee-1 and bioehem indexes of the harvested specimens and e -chocardiogram were measured from children with myocarditis(age: 1～14 years old, n = 9) and healthy young chil- dren(age: 1～14 years old, n = 9). Results Children with myocarditis showed reduced ejection fraction and dilated left ventricular compared with healthy children. Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinaee-1 in children with myocarditis was significantly reduced compared with healthy children. Aspartie acid transanainase, lactate dehydrogenase,creatine kinase, hydroxybutyrie acid dehydrogenase, MB isoenzyrne of creatine kinase, cardiac troponin Ⅰ , C reactive protein showed no difference between two groups. Conclusion The reduced serum level of tissue inhibitors of metallopro- teinase-1 may show the severity of children with myocarditis and maybe one of the mechanisms of children with di- lated cardiomyopathy following myocarditis.

In order to observe the growth, expansion and differentiation of the cultured bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC), we isolated the BMSC from adult SD rats and cultivated them with LIF and bFGF. Then, we cultured and induced the stem cells by using retinoic acid and the culture medium confected in our lab by ourselves. We found that the BMSC could expand and generate clones when they were cultured in vitro. These cells subcultured grew rapidly and differentiated into neuron-like cells and astrocyte-like cells. The results showed that BMSC have the abilities to self renew and differentiate, thus demonstrating the culture method we used is suitable for the culture of BMSC in vitro. The bone marrow stromal cell is not difficult to obtain; it is capable of expanding and differentiating in culture. If the culture condition is appropriate, it can differentiate into neuron and astrocyte. So, it is a kind of perfect seed cells.

As a potential vectored vaccine,Newcastle disease virus(NDV)has been subject to various studies for vaccine development,while relatively little research has outlined the immunomodulatory effect of the virus in antigen presentation.To elucidate the key inhibitory factor in regulating the interaction of infected dendritic cells(DCs)and T cells,DCs were pretreated with the NDV vaccine strain LaSota as an inhibitor and stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)for further detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),flow cytometry,immunoblotting,and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).The results revealed that NDV infection resulted in the inhibition of interleukin(IL)-12p40 in DCs through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)-dependent manner,thus inhibiting the synthesis of IL-12p70,leading to the reduction in T cell proliferation and the secretion of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and IL-6 induced by DCs.Consequently,downregulated cytokines accelerated the infection and viral transmission from DCs to T cells.Furthermore,several other strains of NDV also exhibited inhibitory activity.The current study reveals that NDV can modulate the intensity of the innate?adaptive immune cell crosstalk critically toward viral invasion improvement,highlighting a novel mechanism of virus-induced immunosuppression and providing new perspectives on the improvement of NDV-vectored vaccine.
