HCV NS5B, acting as a RNA dependent replication enzyme,has emerged as an attractive protein used as a target for screenig of drugs against HCV NS5B, and plays an important role in HCV replication. In the report the gene expression of NS5B in E.coli was investigated. PCR was performed to gain the gene of HCV NS5B from plasmid pBRTM/HCV 1 which contains whole sequence of HCV, and the truncated NS5B gene containing no hydrophobic domain was cloned into pGEM Teasy vector. The gene of the truncated NS5B was cut from pGEM Teasy vector and cloned into E.coli expression plasmid pET 21b, then pET 21b NS5B was transfected into E.coli cells. The protein E.coli lysates were purified and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS PAGE) and Western blotting assay. The RdRp activity of NS5B was examined by scintillation proximity assay (SPA). The truncated NS5B gene was successfully cloned into pET 21b. The results of SDS PAGE and Western blotting assay showed: ①the molecular weight of the expressed product was about 68 000 D, ②The truncated NS5B protein was existed in media of E.coli cells, ③The activity of NS5BDCT21 His from HCV 1b amounted to 6 900 cpm (total incorporation of approximately). These findings suggest that soluble NS5B can be successfully expressed in E.coli and could secret into media.

Objective To clarify the actions of tranilast,an anti allergic drug,on chronic constriction mononeuropathy through an experiment using an animal model according to the method of Bennett et al. Methods 36 rats were divided into 2 groups: one was treated with tranilast(200mg/kg?d-1,p.o every experimental day),the other was controlled with solvent only. Chronological changes of heat evoked withdrawal latencies on a hot plate,nerve coducting velocitics, and histopathological changes were compared between the two groups from one to four weeks after loose ligation in the sciatic nerve. Results The changes of the withdrawal latency and nerve conducting velocities in the tranilast treatment group were significantly longer than those in the control. The rats without tranilast treatment showed inflammation in and around the constricted nerve bundles,axonal degeneration,phagocytes invasion and interstitial edematous changes at 7 days,numerous axonal sprouts and remyelination at 14 days,and regeneration in the nerve bundles at 28 days. In contrast,the rats treated with tranilast showed less inflammation or nerve fiber degeneration,and better regeneration than those of the control. Conclusion The actions of tranilast appear to have beneficial effects on prophylaxis of a chronic constriction mononeuropathy and on preservation of the nerve functions in rats.

Objective:To study the effects of zinc deficiency on bone histomorphometric parameters of femoral distal diaphysis in rats. Methods:Thirty Wistar rats were randomly allocated into three groups:the zinc-deficient group(ZD), the control group(Cont),and the pair-fed group(ZP). After the rats had been fed for eight weeks, the histomorphometric and dynamic parameters of the rats were analysed using bone histomorphometric method. Results:The number, volume and connectivity of trabecular bone, and the mean trabecular plate density of ZD rats were significantly decreased, but their mean trabecular plate space was significantly increased. In addition, the data showed that ZD animals had significantly decreased trabecular osteoid surface, reduced velocity of bone formation as compared with Cont and ZP animals. The results showed that in ZD rats the mineral deposit rate was significantly slow, while the mineralization lag and osteoid maturation period were obviously prolonged. Conclusion: Zinc deficiency reduces velocity of bone formation and prolongs bone mineralization and destroys bone structure.

[Summary] During recent years, increasing evidences have indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) might increase the risk of certain tumors; the process might be not only related with the chronic pathologic status of T2DM such as hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, status of chronic inflammation but also associated with the long-term use of anti-diabetic drugs (i. e. sulfonylureas, biguanides, glitazones, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptitide-1 receptor agonists), as well as the use of insulin and insulin analogues. Herewith a system review was made about the recent progress in studying T2DM and tumor risk.

BACKGROUND:Smal-needle-knife therapy for knee osteoarthritis has no uniform location, operation and mechanisms of action. Studies have proved that exercise therapy can enhance muscle strength, increase stability of the knee, improve joint range of motion, and effectively relieve pain.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effect of smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy for treatment of knee osteoarthritisvia a randomized controled clinical trial.
METHODS:122 patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n=61; smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy) and control group (n=61; low-frequency therapy combined with exercise therapy). Then, clinical efficacy in the two groups were assessed by statistical analysis of visual analog scale, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), sweling degree of the knee joint, quadriceps circumference, flexion and extension of the knee joint before and after treatment. Meanwhile, adverse reactions in patients were recorded for safety evaluation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The visual analog scale and WOMAC scores in the two groups were both significantly improved at 2 weeks after treatment (P < 0.05). Moreover, these scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (2) At 12 weeks after treatment, the WOMAC score in the treatment group was better than that in the control group (P< 0.05), and the range of motion of the knee joint was also better in the treatment group than the control group (P< 0.05). (3) According to the full analysis set and per protocol set, the total efficiency rats in the treatment group were both superior to those in the control group (P< 0.001). (4) In the treatment group, there were four cases of surgery, four cases lost to folow-up, and two cases of mild adverse reactions; in the control group, there were six cases of surgery, three cases lost to folow-up, and no adverse reaction. Taken together, smal-needle-knife therapy and physiotherapy both have certain clinical effects on knee osteoarthritis. Smal-needle-knife therapy combined with exercise therapy is superior to physiotherapy combined with exercise therapy in the total efficiency. Folow-up results of 3 months have been confirmed, but long-term effects need further exploration.

BACKGROUND:Nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 composite is very close to the human cortical bone in terms of mechanical properties, and has osteogenic activity, which is a safe and reliable bone material. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 composite bioactive supporting material on the restoration of vertebral structure and height. METHODS: Totaly 177 patients with spinal diseases, 116 males and 61 females, aged 17-81 years, were enroled, including 97 cases of spinal fractures, 5 cases of primary tumors of the spine, 17 cases of spinal tuberculosis and 58 cases of cervical spondylosis. The nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 composite bioactive supporting body was filed into the bone grafts of patients and then subjected to anterior decompression and internal fixation. After 36 months of folow-up, imaging analysis, Frankel spinal cord injury classification, bone graft fusion, visual analog scale scores,Short Form 36 and Japanese Orthopedic Association scores were evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:During the folow-up, except one patient with cervical spine fracture appeared to have slight supporting body displacement, there was no supporting body prolapse or rupture phenomena. The bone graft fusion rate was 96.0%, the average supporting body sinking distance was 1.7 mm. After treatment, 97 patients with spinal fractures had different degree of improvement in the neurological function (P < 0.05); the visual analog scale scores, Short Form 36 and Japanese Orthopedic Association scores were improved significantly in al the 177 patients compared with before treatment (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that the use of nanohydroxyapatite/polyamide 66 composite bioactive supporting material for spinal reconstruction can improve the bone fusion rate, and restore the vertebral structure and height effectively.
