Taxa-4(5),11(12)-diene is the precursor for paclitaxel biosynthesis. The diterpenoid paclitaxel (marketed as Taxol), a plant secondary metabolite isolated from yew, is an effective drug widely used in the treatment of numerous cancers. However, further application of taxol has been restricted due to its low yield in plants and the difficulties in extraction. To increase the intact isoprene flux, we constructed the fusion gene plasmid pBgGGTS and individual cassette plasmid pBgGGgTS to enhance the expression levels of geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase gene (ggpps) and a taxadiene synthase gene (ts) in Coprinopsis cinerea. These two plasmids were separately transformed into C. cinerea LT2 strain, resulting in several putative transformants. Putative transformants were determined by PCR technique, indicating that 5 out of 13 putative transformants transformed by pBgGGTS and 6 out of 13 putative transformants transformed by pBgGGgTS, respectively. Additionally, the Southern blotting analysis of these 10 transformants confirmed that both ggpps and ts gene were stably integrated into the genome of C. cinerea. Crude extracts from each of the transformants were analyzed. There is no difference in the mycelium extracts among the wild-type LT2 and two types of transformants. However, analysis of culture filtrates indicated that an additional GC peak was found at the retention time of 16.762 min which was absent in the wild type control. The mass fragmentation pattern of this peak had the same diagnostic ions with taxa-4(5),11(12)-diene. According to peak area, the amounts of taxa-4(5),11(12)-diene in each fermented broth were 44 ng/L (transformed with pBgGGgTS) and 30 ng/L (transformed with pBgGGTS), respectively. In conclusion, co-expression of the ggpps and ts gene could increase the taxadiene production in C. cinerea.

Aim To investigate the effect of ribonucleic acidⅡon apoptosis in human leukemia cell lines K562 and KG1 a.Methods Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)as-say was performed to detect proliferation activity of K562 and KG1 a cells treated with ribonucleic acidⅡ. Apoptosis index was assessed by flow cytometry(FCM) and fluorescent Hoechst 33258 staining was used for observing morphologic changes of apoptosis.Expres-sion levels of p53,Bax,Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 were analyzed by Western blot.Results The prolifera-tion of K562 and KG1 a cells was significantly inhibited by ribonucleic acid Ⅱ treatment for 12 h,24 h,48 h at concentrations of 100~300 mg·L-1 ,which indica-ted the inhibitory effect of ribonucleic acid Ⅱ was in dose-dependent and time-dependent manners.FCM re-sults displayed a dose-dependent increase in cell apop-totic rate.Hoechst 33258 staining showed the typical apoptotic morphology in some leukemic cells treated with ribonucleic acid Ⅱ,including increased nuclear chromatin concentration and edge accumulation.West-ern blot analysis showed the increased expression of p53,Bax,cleaved caspase-3 and decreased expression of Bcl-2 in K562 and KG1 a cells treated with ribonu-cleic acid Ⅱ.Conclusions Ribonucleic acid Ⅱ can induce apoptosis of leukemia K562 and KG1 a cells by up-regulating p53,which mediates Bcl-2/Bax balance and activates caspase-3 .

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of neuroendoscopy in the treatment of non-acute traumatic intracranial hematoma.Methods:Thirty-six patients with non-acute traumatic intracranial hematoma, admitted to our hospital from June 2018 to December 2019, were chosen in our study. These patients accepted small-bone window craniotomy and straight incision, or removal of intracranial hematoma by neuroendoscopy. The clinical data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed. Pain numerical rating scale (NRS) was used to assess degrees of pain in 22 patients with headache one d before surgery and three d after surgery. The neurological functions after treatment were evaluated by activity of daily living (ADL) evaluation criteria one d before surgery and 7 d after surgery.Results:All 36 patients were cured and discharged from hospital, and no death was noted; length of hospital stays was (6.7±1.1) d. No secondary hemorrhage re-craniotomy was needed, no postoperative complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage were noted, and no re-injection of urokinase was needed to melt the hematoma. As compared with the preoperative NSR scores (7.82±1.097), the postoperative NSR scores of 22 headache patients were significantly decreased (1.05±0.653, P<0.05). In these 36 patients, preoperative ADL level I was noted in 8 patients, level II in 14 patients, level III in 12 patients, and level IV in 2 patients. Postoperative nerve function in 30 patients were fully recovered, with ADL level I; and 6 patients had mild symptom of dizziness, with ADL level II. Conclusion:Non-acute traumatic intracranial hematoma treated by neuroendoscopy enjoys good curative effect, less surgical trauma, short hospital stays and high safety.

The lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) plays a pivotal role in regulating consciousness transition, in which orexinergic neurons, GABAergic neurons, and melanin-concentrating hormone neurons are involved. Glutamatergic neurons have a large population in the LHA, but their anesthesia-related effect has not been explored. Here, we found that genetic ablation of LHA glutamatergic neurons shortened the induction time and prolonged the recovery time of isoflurane anesthesia in mice. In contrast, chemogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons increased the time to anesthesia and decreased the time to recovery. Optogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons during the maintenance of anesthesia reduced the burst suppression pattern of the electroencephalogram (EEG) and shifted EEG features to an arousal pattern. Photostimulation of LHA glutamatergic projections to the lateral habenula (LHb) also facilitated the emergence from anesthesia and the transition of anesthesia depth to a lighter level. Collectively, LHA glutamatergic neurons and their projections to the LHb regulate anesthetic potency and EEG features.
