Objective Identification of colorectal cancer specific antigens from cDNA phage expression library by recombinant expression cloning (SEREX). Methods The cDNA phage expression library derived from colorectal cancer tissue was constructed using the SMART (Switching Mechanism at 5'end of RNA Transcript) techniques. The cDNA phage expression library was screened with SEREX (serological identification of antigen by recombinant cDNA expression libraries), the positive clones encoding antigenic genes were obtained after immunoscreening, and the nucleotide sequences of cDNA inserts were determined and analyzed with BLST software in GenBank, and the antigenic gene function was analyzed by bioinformatics. Results The cDNA phage expression library derived from colorectal cancer tissues was successfully constructed. The primary library consisted of 2.39?10 6 recombinants, and the recombinant rate was more than 97.5%. The titer of the amplified cDNA phage expression library was 4.1?10 10pfu/ml, and the size of inserted cDNA varied from 0.5 to 4.0kb. Sixteen positive clones encoding antigenic genes were obtained after immunoscreening, and results showed that 16 reactive clones were derived from 12 different genes. Ten of 12 genes were highly homologous to the genes known in GenBank, such as IFITM1, CD24, Survivin, KLK6, et al. Two expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were not found in GenBank. The antigenic genes included structural gene, regulation gene and metabolizing gene. Conclusion The tumor-associated antigen genes and the two ESTs were obtained by SEREX were worthy of further study on their structures and functions.

Objective To investigate the effects of Gefarnate on expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO),cyelooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and COX-2 in trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS) induced experimental colitis in rats and its therapeutic effects on ulcerative colitis. Methods Forty female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 each. The rats in group A, B and C were infused with TNBS/alcohol by enema. After the production of colitis, the rats in group A or B were treated daily with 1 ml of normal saline or with 1 ml of 5-ASA (100 mg/kg) by enema,and those in group C were treated daily with 1 ml of Gefarnate by gavage. Group D was served as normal control. After the production of colitis,animals were sacrificed at day 7 and 14 with 5 in each group. The macroscopic changes of the colon were evaluated according to disease activity index (DAD scoring and histological change was assessed by HE staining. MPO activity of the mucosa was detected by biochemical methods. Expressions of COX-1 and COX-2 in tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with group A, macroscopic and histological scores and MPO activity were significantly decreased in group B and C (P<0.05). The expressions of COX-1 at day 7 and 14 were 1.86±0.51 and 1.96±0.41 in group B, 1.73±0.68 and 1.79±0.6 in group C, 1.91±0.34 and 1.99±0.45 in group D, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in group A (0.87±0.18 and 0.93±0.15, P<0.05). Whereas the expressions of COX-2 at day 7 and 14 were 1.53±0.19 and 0.73±0.15 in group B, 1.73±0.94 and 0.86±0.29 in group C, 0.24±0.18 and 0.18±0. 16 in group D, respectivley, which were significantly lower that those in group A (3.50±0.2;3 and 3.06±0.27). There was a significant difference between group D and group B or C (P<0.05). Conclusions Gefarnate provides a therapeutic effect during TNBS-induced colitis in rats, which is similar to that of 5-ASA. The mechanisms are involved in decreasing the concentration of colonic MPO and regulating the expression of COX-1/COX-2.
