Objective:To investigate the role of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in intracellular calcium regulation and biological behaviors of SW480 colon cancer cells. Methods:qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemistry were applied to determine the mRNA and protein ex-pression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 colon cancer cell line upon treatment with TRPV5 and TRPV6 agonist, 1-25(OH)2D3, and inhibitor, CuCl2. The change of intracellular Ca2+level was examined with a confocal laser scanning microscope. Scratch test, MTT, and TUNEL assays were used to analyze the cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis, respectively. Results:As an agonist of TRPV5 and TRPV6, 1-25(OH)2D3 significantly up-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of TRPV5 and TRPV6 in SW480 cell lines. On the other hand, CuCl2, being an inhibitor of TRPV5 and TRPV6, effectively down-regulated the TRPV5 and TRPV6 mRNA and protein expres-sion levels (P<0.05). The intracellular calcium concentration in SW480 cell line significantly increased upon treatment with 1-25 (OH)2D3, and significantly decreased with CuCl2 treatment (P<0.05). 1-25(OH)2D3 promoted cell proliferation and migration, and inhibit-ed apoptosis of SW480 cell in a time-and dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). However, CuCl2 significantly repressed cell proliferation and migration and induced apoptosis (P<0.05). Conclusion: TRPV5 and TRPV6 can affect the biological behaviors of colon cancer SW480 cells by regulating intracellular Ca2+level.

SMART-RACE was performed after isolating the total RNA of Armillariella tabescens to amplify the full-length cDNA of arabinosidase (GenBank Accession No. AJ620046). Bioinformatics analysis was used to analyze the code frame of arabinosidase, to predict its structure and function. Recombinant plasmid pPIC9-AF was constructed and then electroporated into methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris GS115. The secreted 6 ? His fusion protein was purified to analyze its enzymology property. This arabinosidase had high activity at 30-35℃ under acid condition, and was stable within wide range of pH and temperature. It maintained about 80% activity at the range of pH4. 0-8.0 and 20-40℃,wider than many other cloned arabinosidase. So it was worthy to go step further to study this enzyme, and recombinant expression provided a chance of highly expressing arabinosidase.

Inositol requiring enzyme 1 alpha (IRE1α), a widespread transmembrane protein in mammals, is an endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) receptor. Among the three signaling pathways of the unfolded protein response (UPR), the IRE1α pathway is the most conservative. And there is a growing body of evidence that the occurrence and development of tumors is closely related to the over-expression of IRE1α. Therefore, the study of the IRE1α inhibitors is of great significance to the discovery of new anti-tumor drugs and has been attracting more and more attention. In the hope of providing ideas for the research of targeting IRE1α for cancer therapy, this paper reviewed the data of representative IRE1α inhibitors, including inhibitory activity, the mechanism of action, structural characteristics, and so on.

Objective To analyze epidemiological and clinical characteristics of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients. Methods The clinical data of 323 CHC patients were collected. The transmission modes, clinical manifestations and virological features were recorded. The liver histological change was also analyzed in 39 cases whose liver biopsy samples were available. The comparison between two groups was performed by t test. Results Among the 323 CHC patients, 135 cases (41. 8%) had history of blood or blood products transfusion. Sixty-seven cases (20. 7%) had undergone surgery and trauma operation. Nineteen cases (5. 9%) had history of Chinese medicine acupuncture. Eighteen cases (5.6%) had undergone hemodialysis. Two patients (0.6%) were infected through vertical transmission. Twenty-one cases (6. 5%) had history of intravenous drug use and two cases (0. 6%) had history of unsafe sexual contact. The possible transmission routes for the other 78 cases (24.1%)were unknown. Fourteen patients (4. 3%) were co-infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). The major prevalent genotypes were hepatitis C virus ( HCV) genotype lb and 2a, which were 145 cases (65. 3%) and 21 cases (9. 5%) respectively. HCV viral loads were as high as 1 × 105 IU/mL in 74 cases (26. 1%) and 1× 106 IU/mL in 103 cases (36. 4%). Twenty-three patients (7.1%) developed obvious clinical manifestations. Among 39 patients undergoing liver biopsy, 14 cases (35. 9%) had hepatic inflammation activity index (HAI)≥4, six cases (15. 4%) had fibrosis stage (F) ≥3, four cases (10. 3%) had HAI≥4 and F≥3. Conclusions The most common HCV transmission modes are blood transfusion and use of blood products. However, surgery and trauma operation should be paid more attention. Besides blood transfusion, the transmission modes of intravenous drug injection, hemodialysis and traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture are increasing. The major HCV genotypes are lb and 2a. The viral loads of most patients are relatively high. Most patients infected with HCV don't show any obvious hepatitis symptoms and physical signs. However, the liver biopsy results from 39 patients suggest that most patients develop liver histological changes.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of early electroacupuncture(EA) associated with motor relearning program therapy during the recovery stage for the limb function in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods128 patients with cerebral infarction at the recovery stage were divided into two groups: electroacupuncture group (57 cases) and control group(71 cases).Patients in the two groups were given clinical treatment and regularly motor relearning program therapy.The patients in electroacupuncture group were given electroacupuncture additionally for 10～14 d at the acute stage. The evaluation was done pre- and post-treatment respectively with Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA).ResultsThe motor scores in each group improved after treatment(P<0.01). The scores in the electroacupuncture group were obviously higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionEarly electroacupuncture associated with motor relearning program therapy during the recovery stage can significantly promote the limb function in patients with cerebral infarction.

There are few articles or reports collecting evidence about Kudiezi injection from premarketing and postmarketing research or studies systematically. This article is an exact miniature of a systematical report about Kudiezi injection. We analyzed information from four aspects, such as quality control reports, non-clinical premarketing safety experiments, postmarketing research (efficacy studies, hospital information system data and national spontaneous reporting system data), and literature analysis. All the four aspects build an evidence body for Kudiezi injection in order to inform its safety use in clinical practice and further study.
