Objective To construct Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Chinese-strain wild type and Lamivudine-resistant variant recombinant baculovirus. Methods 1.2-unit length HBV construct (adr serotype, C genotype) was cloned into the multiple cloning region of the pFastBac Ⅰ vector and then transformed into DH10Bac, in which homologous recombination occurred between the pFastBac vector and the inside bacmid with the help of helper plasmid. So HBV recombinant bacmid was produced and transfected into sf9 cells to generate a Recombinant HBV baculovirus called vAcHBVc. The viral titers were detected by immune plaque assay and TCID 50. Lamivudine resistance mutation (YVDD) was introduced by site-directed mutagenesis using continuous PCR. HBV YVDD recombinant baculovirus (vAcHBVcYVDD) was generated and titered as above. Meanwhile, the recombinant HBV baculovirus containing GFP reporter was constructed for evaluating the efficacy of transfection and titration of virus. Results Recombinant wild and YMDD variant HBV baculovirus were successfully developed and the titer was between 10~6～10~8pfu/ml through plaque assay. Conclusion Different kinds of recombinant HBV baculovirus could be generated rapidly and efficiently with Bac to Bac expression system. The developed recombinant HBV baculovirus could be further used in the study of anti-viral resistances.

BACKGROUND: From yiyiren oil is extracted kanglaite injection that has been extensively used against lung cancer for its function against cancer.

Objective To clarify the effects of sedation with propofol on pro/anti-inflammatory cytokines balance in severe sepsis patients resulted from intra-abdominal infection.Methods Fifteen patients with severe sepsis were randomly divided into two groups,propofol group received intravenous propofol sedation more than 48 hours,and no sedation drug were used in control group,3 volunteers as healthy group.Plasma TNF-?,IL-10 concentrations were measured at admission and 48 hours later,the ratio of TNF-?/IL-10 (T/I) were also calculated.Results Levels of both TNF-?,IL- 10 were significantly elevated in patients compared with healthy group,but no difference between prepofol and control group.The mean load doses of propofol was 0.063 mg/kg and maintained at 0.054 mg/(kg?h).After 48 hours infusion of prepofol,TNF-?,IL-10 decreased significantly compared with admission in propofol group,while no changed in control group.Compared with control group,IL-10 was lower and ratio of T/I was higher in propofol group.Conclusion Sedation with prepofol in severe sepsis patients attenuated the pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokine responses.Moreover, propofol accelerate the shift to Th1.These findings suggest that the influence of sedation drug on immune function must be considered in sepsis patients.

Kisspeptin, the neuropeptide produced by Kiss1 neurons in the hypothalamus, is involved in the neuroendocrine regulation of puberty initiation, reproductive system maturation, ovulation and other processes by influencing the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Kiss1 gene expression is regulated by multiple trans-regulatory factors and epigenetics. Prediction and preliminary experiments have shown that the seed sequences of miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p can directly bind to the 3′-UTR of Kiss1 and inhibit the expression of Kiss1. In order to further study the role of miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p in the regulation of Kiss1, specific absorptive sponge vectors (sponge-miR-92a and sponge-miR-25) with inhibitory effects on miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p were constructed to realize the functional loss of miRNA. Flow cytometry and dual luciferase reporter assays both confirmed that both sponge vectors could adsorb exogenous or endogenous target miRNAs very effectively. The sponge-miR-92a and sponge-miR-25 vectors are further packaged into the lentivirus LV-sponge-miR-92a and LV-sponge-miR-25. The results of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR showed that the expression level of Kiss1 in the hypothalamic primary neurons infected by LV-sponge-miR-92a and LV-sponge-miR-25 was significantly up-regulated (P < 0. 05). After injecting LV-sponge-miR-92a into the hypothalamus, the time of female mouse vulva opening was significantly earlier (P<0. 05). The normal oestrus cycle of female mice with was disrupted by injections of LV-sponge-miR-92a and LV-sponge-miR-25 in the hypothalamus. In conclusion, we successfully constructed sponge vectors capable of effectively adsorbing miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p, and demonstrated their role in removing the inhibition of miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p on Kiss1. Hypothalamic sponge injection had a certain effect on both the time of vulva opening and the estrus cycle of female mice, suggesting that miR-92a-3p and miR-25-3p may play an important role in the initiation of puberty and reproductive maturity.
