Objective To investigate the correlation between histone deacetylase 1(HDAC1) and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma.Methods Eighty cases of lung adenocarcinoma in our hospital from August 2014 to April 2016 served as the research subjects,and contemporaneous 80 individuals undergoing healthy physical examination were taken as the control group.The fasting venous blood sample was collected in all subjects.Then serum HDAC1 and VEGF levels were detected by ELISA.The differences of serum HDAC1 and VEGF expression levels were compared between the two groups.The HDAC1 and VEGF expression levels in the patients with different characteristics of lung adenocarcinoma and the relation between serum HDAC1 and VEGF concentrations were analyzed.Furthermore the possible influence factors of HDAC1 protein expression level in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed.Results The HDAC1 levels in the control group and observation group were(329.56 ± 23.83) ng/L and(568.20 ± 35.40) ng/L,the difference was statistically significant(t=23.576,P=0.000).The VEGF levels in the control group and observation group were(40.26±9.82)ng/L and(296.56±19.80)ng/L respec tively,the difference was statistically significant(t=31.154,P=0.000).The HDAC1 protein level had statistical difference among different genders,ages,clinical stages and smoking history,the HDAC1 protein level in male,age >60 years old,clinical stage Ⅲ,V and patients with smoking history were higher(P<0.05).The Pearson correlation analysis results showed that serum HDAC1 in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma was positively correlated with VEGF protein concentration(r=0.526,P =0.000).The Logistic regression analysis showed that influence factor of HDAC1 protein expression level in the patients with lung adenocarcinoma was clinical stage.Conclusion The high expression of HDAC1 protein in lung adenocarcinoma patients may also simultaneously regulate the VEGF expression,thus promotes the development of lung adenocarcinoma.

Chinese Journal of Biotechnology 2011;27(3):427-435
Microbial lipid is a potential raw material for biofuel industry. In this review, we summarized recent progress in microbial lipid production by oleaginous fungi in terms of identifying cheap feedstock, developing robust lipid producer, establishing novel strategies and better culture modes for cellular lipid accumulation, as well as revealing the molecular mechanism of oleaginity. We discussed issues, solutions and directions for further development of microbial lipid technology.

To shorten the cultivation time and reduce the consumption of raw materials for microbial lipid production, oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides AS 2.1389 was cultivated using a two-stage culture mode, in which the cell propagation and lipid accumulation were separated. The yeast cells recovered from the propagation culture were re-suspended in glucose solution for lipid accumulation, through which lipid content over 55% of the dry cell weight was achieved, the longer the propagation stage was, the higher the lipid content. Analysis of the lipid indicated that the long-chain fatty acids with 16 and 18 carbon atoms were major components, suggesting that the lipid can be an alternative feedstock for biodiesel production.

The objective of this work is to investigate how dilution rate and carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio affects lipid accumulation by Rhodosporidium toruloides AS 2.138 9 in continuous culture. Under steady-state conditions, the increase in dilution rate led to the decrease in lipid content and lipid yield. The highest lipid yield and lipid content at D = 0.02 h(-1) were 0.18 g lipid/g sugar and 57.1%, respectively, while the highest lipid productivity and biomass productivity were obtained at D = 0.14 h(-1). The increase in C/N ratio led to the increase in lipid content. The highest lipid content of 38% was obtained at C/N = 237. The highest lipid yield of 0.12 g lipid/g sugar was obtained at C/N = 92. However, the highest lipid productivity of 0.12 g/(L x h) was obtained at C/N = 32. No significant changes were observed in terms of fatty acid composition of the lipid produced under different C/N ratios, and these three fatty acids, palmitic acid, stearic acid and oleic acid, took over 85% in all samples.

Objective: To investigate the expression of lncRNA01296 in esophageal cancer (EC) tissues and its effect on the proliferation and migration of EC TE-2 cells. Methods:Atotal of 36 pairs of esophageal cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues were collected from EC patients admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College from January 2017 to September 2018. The human normal esophageal epithelial (HEEC) cells and human esophageal cancer cell lines ECA109, TE-1 and TE-2 were cultured. qPCR was used to detect the mRNAexpressions of lincRNA01296, SNRPA(small nuclear ribonucleoproteinA) and NGF (nerve growth factor) in EC tissues and cells. Recombinant lentiviral interference vectoror control vector were used to transfect EC cell lines, as sh-lncRNA01296#1,#2 and Mock groups. WB was used to detect the protein expressions of SNRPAand NGF in transfected cells. MTS assay was used to detect cell proliferation, and Transwell assays were used to detect cell invasion and migration of TE-2 cells after transfection. Results: The mRNAexpressions of lncRNA01296, SNRPAand NGF were significantly increased in esophageal cancer tissues and cell lines (all P<0.01), and these expressions in poorly differentiated TE-2 cells were higher than those in highly differentiated ECA109 and TE-1 cells (all P<0.05). The mRNAexpressions of lncRNA01296 and NGF in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly lower than those in Mock group (all P<0.01), while the mRNAexpression of SNRPAshowed no statistical difference among three groups (P>0.05). The protein expressions of lncRNA01296 and NGF in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly lower than those in Mock group (all P<0.01). The relative proliferation ability of cells in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and shlncRNA01296#2 groups was significantly lower than that of Mock group at 48 and 72 h after transfection (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The number of invasive cells was (72.0±6.3), (36.6±4.3) and (33.9±3.7) in Mock, sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups, respectively; and the number of migrated cells was (85.2±9.9), (47.5±8.1) and (43.8±6.5), respectively, indicating that the numbers of invasive and migrated cells in sh-lncRNA01296#1 and sh-lncRNA01296#2 groups were significantly less than those in Mock group(all P<0.01). Conclusion: lncRNA01296 can up-regulate SNRPAexpression to promote NGF-mediated proliferation and metastasis of EC cells, which may provide new target for the diagnosis and treatment of esophagealcancer.
