Objective To construct pcDNA 3.1(+)/HPV 18 E 6 fusion gene and a single-codon mutation pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F49R or pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F127R fusion gene in eukaryotic expression vector and study the effects on proliferation and apoptosis of cervical carcinoma cell line Hela. Method HPV 18 E6 gene sequence and the single-point mutation HPV 18 E6 F49R or HPV 18 E6 F127R were amplified from total RNA of Hela cell line by reverse transcription- polymerase chain reaction ( RT- PCR), then the gene sequences were respectively inserted into pcDNA 3.1(+) vector to reconstruct recombinant plasmids which were transfected transiently into Hela cells. MTT and RT-PCR were used to test the expression levels of HPV 18 E6 and the growth of HeLa cells after transfected about 48 h. The proliferation and apoptosis of Hela cells were detected respectively by cell counting and AO/EB fluorescent vital staining. Results The pcDNA 3.1(+)/HPV 18 E6, pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F49R and pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F127R eukaryotic expression vectors were successfully constructed. The gene of HPV 18 E6 was discriminably detected in the HeLa cells which were transfected with the recombinant plasmids. After several days, the proliferation of Hela cells transfected with pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F49R or pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F127R plasmid were obviously inhibited and the apoptotic rates were significantly increased, then the proliferation of cells transfected with pcDNA(+)/HPV 18 E6 was rather increased slightly, and we could observe the phenomena of early apoptosis and the formation of thekaryopyknosis by fluorescent microscope in the cells transfected with pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F49R or pcDNA 3.1(+)/E6 F127R. Conclusion The eukaryotic expressing vectors encoding HPV 18 E6 F49R and HPV 18 E6 F127R provide fundamental basis for the further study on HPV 18 E6 mechanism as well as prevention and treatment of uterine cancer.

Objective To reconstruct the perfusion parameters of murine hindlimbs peripheral tissue by using fluorescence reflectance imaging technique. Methods BALB/c mice were injected with intravenous bolus injection of indocyanine green (ICG) (10μg) into the tail vein. Time-series fluorescence intensity images were obtained for 200 s immediately after the injection. After the serial imaging, silhouette images of the mice were taken under white light to obtain the region of interest (ROI) of the murine hindlimbs. Bi-exponential model was applied to analyze the dynamic fluorescence parameters and the peripheral tissue perfusion parameter images were reconstructed. Results The fitted perfusion curves obtained from bi-exponential model were in good agreement with the measured ones. The parametric images which reflected the vascular sufficiency of murine hindlimbs were reconstructed. Conclusions A novel method for parametric images of murine hindlimbs peripheral tissue blood perfusion is proposed in this paper, which is noninvasive with higher resolution and little damage to biological tissues.
