Academic Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University 2008;20(1):61-65
By using a function with a phase factor, a universal analytic potential energy function applied to the interactions between diatoms or molecules is derived and six kinds of potential curves of common shapes are obtained by adjusting the phase factor. The spectroscopic parameters of ten diatomic molecules are calculated by using the potential energy function; as a consequence, all calculation results are in good agreement with experimental data.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of highly conserved small noncoding single stranded RNAs.They participate in the regulation of target genes through the degradation of mRNA and/or inhibition of translation.As the most abundant miRNAs in the central nervous system,miRNA-124 (miR-124) has been widely given attention in recent years.The recent research suggests that miR-124 is closely associated with ischemic cerebral injury,but its specific regulation mechanism remains unclear.This article reviews the roles of miR-124 in ischemic cerebral injury.

Objective To study the effects of Forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1) down regulation by small interfering RNA(siRNA) on chemosensitivity and mechanism of human pancreatic cancer cell and its mechanism.Methods Three FoxM1 siRNAs were designed and constructed.All cancer cells were divided into different groups,after transfected with FoxM1 siRNA for different time,the cultured cells were harvested to carry on the next tests.Expression of FoxM1 were determined by red-time PCR and Western blot,and prolifearion and chemosensitivity were evaluated by MTT assay,and the phosphorylation of Akt protein was examined by Western blot.Results FoxM1 siRNA could down-regulate the FoxM1 expression in a dose-and time-dependent manner.The MTF results showed that the inhibit rates was 17.78%,17.56%,35.39%,52.81%,70.98% indifferentgroups [Con-A + Gemcitabine,Con-B + Gemcitabine,siRNA (3.125nM) + Gemcitabine,siRNA (6.25nM) + Gemcitabine and siRNA(12.5nM) + Gemcitabine,respectively.The phosphorylation of Akt protein was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusions FoxM1 siRNA could sensitize human pancreaticr cancer cells chemotherapy sensitivity,it is the one of the important mechanisms through down-regulate Akt phosphorylated levels,but the molecular mechanism need to be explored further.

Objective To investigate the effects of down-regulation of polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1) gene by RNA interference (RNAi) on the invasion of a human malignant melanoma cell line A375 and their possible mechanisms.Methods Cultured A375 cells were classified into several groups:blank control group receiving no treatment,liposome group transfected with lipofectamine only,and three siRNA groups transfected with three concentrations of a small interference RNA (siRNA) targeting PLK1 respectively.After additional culture,real time quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to quantify the expressions of PLK1 mRNA and protein in A375 cells respectively,Transwell invasion assay to evaluate the invasive capacity of A375 cells,agarose gel electrophoresis and terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labelling (TUNEL) to detect anoikis in A375 cells.The colony-forming capacity was also evaluated for A375 cells.Statistical analysis was carried out by one-factor analysis of variance.Results There was a significant decrease in PLK1 mRNA and protein expressions as well as in colony-forming units in the siRNA groups compared with the blank control group (all P < 0.05).The invasive capacity of A375 cells was significantly inhibited in the siRNA groups with the number of migrating cells in Transwell assay being 39 ± 5,19 ± 5 and 9 ± 3 in A375 cells transfected with 3.125,6.250 and 12.500 nmol/L siRNAs respectively,compared to 56 ± 5 in the blank control group (all P < 0.05).A characteristic DNA ladder was observed on agarose gel electrophoresis in the siRNA (6.250 nmol/L) group.Compared with the blank control group and liposome group,the three siRNA groups showed increased apoptotic index (3.86% ± 0.35% (3.125 nmol/L siRNA),7.35% ± 0.36% (6.250 nmol/L siRNA) and 17.56% ± 0.38% (12.500 nmol/L siRNA) vs.1.15% ± 0.25% (blank control group) and 1.18% ± 0.22% (liposome group),all P < 0.05).Conclusions PLK1 siRNA can inhibit the invasion of malignant melanoma cells,likely by inducing anoikis in these cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of miR-10a expression on migration and invasion of human pancreatic cancer cells AsPC-1.Methods Small interfering RNA targeting at miR-10a (miR-10a-siRNA) was constructed,then it was transfected into pancreatic cancer AsPC-1 cells,and nonsense siRNA (Nc-siRNA) group and blank control group was established.Real time PCR assay was used to detect the expression of miR-10a in the 3 groups,and wound healing assay and Transwell assay were used to determine the migration and invasion abilities of cancer cells.The amount of matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) in supernatant of cancer cell culture of each group was examined by ELISA assay.Results The miR-10a levels in control group,NC-siRNA group and miR-10a-siRNA group were 1.05 ±0.08,1.03 ±0.06,0.02 ±0.01 ; and the number of transmembrane cell were (150 ± 2.6),(145 ± 2.2),(62 ± 1.8),the levels of MMP-13 in the supernatant were (108.5 ± 2.8),(107.8 ± 2.5),(35.8 ± 1.5) pg/ml.The values were significantly lower in miR-10a-siRNA group than those in control group and NC-siRNA group (P < 0.01).The distance of cultured clone in miR-10a treated cancer cells (736± 18 μm) was significantly longer than those in the controls (385 ±5 μm) and NC-siRNA group (395± 13 μm,P<0.01).Conclusions Down-regulation of miR-10a by siRNA may inhibit migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer AsPC-1 cells,and the downregulated expression of MMP-13 may be one of the important mechanisms.

Objective To observe the expression changes of 12 ischemia-related microRNAs (miRNA) in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury after deep hypothermic low flow (DHLF) in mice.Methods A total of 80 3-w eek-old healthy and clean grade C57BL/6 male mice w ere randomly divided into either a DHLF model group or a sham operation group. Each group w as redivided into 4 subgroups according to the time points of 2, 6, 12, and 24 h (10 in each group). The bilateral carotid arteries of the DHLF model group w ere clipped and a DHLF model w as established, w hile the carotid arteries of the sham operation group w ere not clipped. The mice w ere sacrified at each time point and the brain tissue w as removed. The total RNA w as extracted. Quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction w as used to detect miRNA expression. Results Compared w ith the sham operation group, the expression levels of 9 miRNAs w ere upregulated, 2 w ere dow n-regulated, and 1 did not have any significant change in the DHLF model group. Conclusions The expression levels of 11 miRNAs changed significantly after DHLF. It might have a regulatory role in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury after DHLF.
