Objective: To clone cDNA of human interleukin-29(IL-29) and express it in cos-7 cells, and to study its anti-HBV activity in vitro. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from PBMCs which had been infected with vesicular stomatitis virus(VSV) in vitro.IL-29 cDNA was amplified using one-step RT-PCR technique. The recombinant expressing plasimd of psectagB/His-myc-IL29 was constructed by inserting IL-29 cDNA into the vector and was then transfected into cos-7 cells. Stable expression stains were screened by Hygromycin B and limited dilution method. The target protein was purified through Ni2+-chelating Sepharose Fast Flow. Anti-viral bioactivity of the recombinant IL-29 fusion protein was analyzed through an in vitro model of production of HBV by the HepG2.2.2.15 cell line.ELISA was used for detection of the viral titers in the cell cultural supernants. Results: IL-29 was cloned and stably expressed in cos-7 cells successfully. SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis showed multiple bands of the target protein with the molecular weights between 20 000 and 33 000, and the major band was located at about 33 000, indicating the fused IL-29 modified by additional glycosylation. The rhIL-29 was shown to dose-dependently inhibit secretion of HBsAg and HBeAg accompanied by the reduction of HBV genomic DNA in the cells tested. The inhibition ratio of HBsAg and HBeAg production was attained 85% at a concentration of 160 ?g/L of rhIL-29. Conclusion: The rhIL-29 with anti-HBV activity has been obtained.

Objective To investigate the regulation of melatonin (MT) on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling in diabetic db/db mice kidneys.Methods The 48 10-week-old male db/db mice were randomly divided into db/db group,db/db+MT 50 μg/kg group,db/db+MT 100 μg/kg group and db/db+MT 200 μg/kg group,each consisting of 12 mice.These mice received i.p.injections of MT These mice received i.p.injections of MT [dissoved in phosphate buffer solution (PBS)/ dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solution,given every day].Alternatively,12 db/m mice served as the control group.db/m and db/db group were injected i.p.with the same volume of PBS/DMSO solution.The animals were sacrificed after 12 weeks of dosage administration.Blood glucose (BG),body weight (BW),kidney weight (KW) and 24 h urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) were determined;Kidney pathological lesions were evaluated by renal pathological staining.Immunohistochemistry of renal TLR4,NF-κB p65,and ED-1 was performed to determine the immunoreactivity.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of renal TLR4,myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88),TIR-domaincontaining adaptor inducing interferon-β (TRIF),interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3) and NF-κB p65,while the mRNA expressions of renal tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) were evaluated by real-time PCR.Results Compared with control group,the levels of BG,BW,KW and UAER were much higher in db/db mice group (P ＜ 0.01),while KW in db/db+MT (100,200 μg/kg) groups and UAER level in db/db+MT (50,100,200 μg/kg) groups were distinctly decreased compared with those in db/db group (P ＜ 0.01).In week 12 db/db mice,the glomerular mesangial expansion index and tubulointerstitial injury index were increased compared with those in db/m mice (P ＜ 0.01).The above kidney histopathologic lesions were distinctly ameliorated by 50,100,200 μg/kg MT (P ＜ 0.05).Immunohistochemistry intensity of renal TLR4,NF-κB p65 and ED-1 displayed obvious differences between db/m mice and db/db mice (P ＜ 0.01),and that were remarkably decreased in db/db+MT (50,100,200 μg/kg) mice compared with db/db mice (P ＜ 0.05).Western blotting showed that the protein expression of renal TLR4,MyD88,TRIF,IRF-3 and NF-κB p65 were stronger in db/db group compared with those in db/m group (P ＜ 0.05) and weaker in db/db+ MT (50,100,200 μg/kg) groups compared with those in db/db group (P ＜ 0.05).Futhermore,the mRNA expressions of renal MCP-1 and TNF-α were higher in db/db group compared with those in db/m group (P ＜ 0.01) and lower in db/db+MT (50,100,200 μg/kg) groups compared with those in db/db group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Melatonin may partly down-regulate TLR4 signaling pathway to inhibit Inflammatory reaction and alleviate kidney injury in diabetic db/db mice.

BACKGROUND: Based on the characteristics of cartilage tissue, such as consisting of single type of cells, the cartilage cells or chondrocyte, absence of blood vessel, rather low consumption level of oxygen and nutrition, low level of allo-immunocompetence and simple function in vivo, it seems to be easy for cartilage cell lines to be established for tissue and cell transplantation. We want to set up a cell line with the purpose of current use in tissue engineering in vitro. It will provide the basis for artificial tissue and organ that will become to be standardized and yielded in batch.OBJECTIVE: To explore the potential stimulatory effects of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) and insulin on the proliferation and differentiation in primary culture mice chondrocytes in vitro. The effect and application of the cell factors will be evaluated for tissue engineering.DESIGN: A grouping controlled and repeated trial was conducted with the cells as the subjects.SETTING: Key laboratory of tissue transplantation and immunology of a college.MATERIAIS: The experiment was completed in the Key Laboratory of Tissue Transplantation and Immunology of the Ministry of Education, Jinan University from November 2002 to May 2003. Cultured cartilage cells at random were obtained as the study objects.METHODS: Mice cartilage cells were cultured in medium at the minimum concentrations of serum. The effects of different concentration of bFGF and insulin on the proliferation and differentiation in mice cartilage cells were observed with WST1 and immunofluorescence staining.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary results: ① Effect of bFGF on proliferation of primary cultured mice cartilage cells. ② Effect of insulin on proliferation of primary cultured mice cartilage cells. Secondary results:morphological observation of cartilage cells RESULTS: Primary cultured mice cartilage cells were cultured in medium at the minimum concentration of serum(4 g/L fatal bovine serum). It was found that bFGF and insulin might play an important role on the proliferation and growth of mice cartilage cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, morphological observation of cartilage cells showed that both bFGF and insulin not only promoted the proliferation of the cells but also enhanced the matrix secretion of cartilage cells.CONCLUSION: Both bFGF and insulin can stimulate the proliferation of cartilage cells in vitro.

Objective To analyze the nursing interventions of two kinds of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL),so that we can provide personalized service for patients with PCNL and improved quality of nursing.

Objective To explore the protective effects and possible mechanisms of Polydatin (PD)on hypoxic-ischemia brain injury(HIBD) in neonatal rat by means of spatial learning memory and the expression of synaptophysin in hippocampal CA1. Methods Thirty-seven neonatal SD rats were divided into 3 groups at random: normal sham-operated group( no hypoxia and ischemia); HIBD group( no medication) ;PD treatment group. 7-old-day rat' s model of HIBD was established by left carotid artery ligation and 2 h hypoxia. Morris water maze test was used to evaluate cognitive function in the rats after 28-day-old( 21-day later after HI). Immunohistochemical method was used to measure the expression of synaptophysin after the end of Morris water maze test. Results Morris water maze results showed that the mean escape latency of the shamgroup (SG) ,HIBD group (HIBD) and PD treatment group (PD) were (39. 55 ±8. 08) s, (52. 37 ±8.03) s and (43.29 ± 7. 63 ) s respectirely. For PD and SG, the mean escape latency was significantly shorter than the HIBD (P ＜0.05). After training,the mean escape latency in the three groups of rats was shortened gradually. The frequency of platform crossings were 5. 29 ±2.62、2. 36 ± 1.80、4. 25 ± 1. 66 in the SG,HIBD and PD respectirely. The frequency of platform crossings in PD was higher than that of HIBD ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The swimming time in target quadrant were ( 15.74 ± 3.85) s, ( 10. 63 ± 3.66) s and ( 14. 32 ± 2. 52 ) s in SG, HIBD and PD respectirely. For HIBD ,the swimming time in target quadrant was significantly shorter comparing to SG and PD ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The expression of synaptophys in hippocampal CA1 in PD ( 0. 295 2 ± 0. 044 3 )were evidently higher than that in the HIBD group (0.261 2 ±0.032 3) at 3 week after operation (P ＜0. 05). Conclusion Spatial learning memory deficits and the decrease of synaptophys in hippocampal CA1 could be induced by hypoxic-ischemia. Polydatin could improve the learning and memory ability in neonatal rats following hypoxic-ischemia brain damage. The mechanisms of improvement with Polydatin treatment is associated with the enhancement of expression of synaptophys.
