Objective To study the effects of main ingredients from microemulsion extract of Compound Longqincao in vitro on anti-influenza virus H1N1 activity; To analyze effects of main ingredients from microemulsion extract on influenza virus inhibition rate.Methods Uniform design was used to conduct the experiment. MTT method was used to detect the effect rate (ER) of anti-influenza virus H1N1 on A549 cells. Setting ER as the index, Minitab17 software was used to establish mathematical model to come up with regression equations of all factors. The effects of ingredients on ER were analyzed and the efficient composition ratio of the optimum anti-influenza virus H1N1 was chosen.ResultsIn the compound compatibility, baicalin showed the most obvious antivirus activity, and licorice glycosides had certain inhibition effects on pathological changes of cells. Five ingredients had coordinative or controlled relation with ER. When per milliliter liquids containing licorice glycosides, baicalin, leucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid was 13.94μg, 49.44μg, 0.23 mg, 1.25 mg, and 2.50 mg, ER was the best. ER was 85.34%±4.72% after verification.ConclusionThe optimized combination of main ingredients from microemulsion extract of Compound Longqincaocan better play a role in anti-influenza virus H1N1.

The fruit of Pandanus tectorius (PTF) has a long history of use as a folk medicine to treat hyperlipidemia in Hainan province, South China. Our previous studies have shown that the n-butanol extract of PTF is rich in caffeoylquinic acids and has an adequate therapeutic effect on dyslipidemic animals induced by high-fat diet. In this work, seven caffeoylquinic acids isolated from PTF were screened for the lipid-lowering activity in HepG2 hepatoma cells. Oil-Red O staining, microscopy and intracellular triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) quantification showed that 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3-CQA), 3, 5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3,5-CQA), and 3,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3,4,5-CQA) significantly inhibited lipid accumulation induced by oleic acid and decreased intracellular levels of TC and TG in a dose-dependent manner. These three caffeoylquinic acids showed no significant cytotoxicity at concentrations of 1 -50 μmol x L(-1) as determined by MTT assay. Realtime quantitative PCR revealed that 3-CQA and 3, 5-CQA significantly increased the expression of lipid oxidation-related genes PPARα, CPT-1 and ACOX1 while 3-CQA, 3, 5-CQA and 3,4,5-CQA decreased the expression of lipogenic genes SREBP-1c, SREBP-2, HMGR, ACC, FAS. Overall, 3-CQA, 3, 5-CQA and 3, 4, 5-CQA may be the principal hypolipidemic components in PTF which can decrease intracellular lipid accumulation through up-regulating the expression of lipid oxidative genes and down-regulating the expression of lipogenic genes.

Objective To analyze colonoscopic appearances,computed tomography (CT) imaging features and their correlation with postoperative pathology in patients with colorectal high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) diagnosed by colonoscopic biopsy.Methods From October 2009 to October 2015,patients diagnosed as colorectal HGIN by colonoscopic biopsy who received endoscopic resection or operation,and had complete postoperative pathological data were enrolled.The results of CT imaging before operation,postoperative pathological type,the maximum diameter of lesions,sessile lesions or pedunculated lesions and enlarged lymph nodes were analyzed.Chi-square test were performed for statistical analysis.Sensitivity and specificity of CT imaging before operation in the detection of invasive colorectal cancer were calculated.Results Among the 76 patients,21.1％ (16/76) patients were HGIN,and 78.9％ (60/76) were invasive cancer confirmed by postoperative pathology.The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in patients aged ≤50 years (3/14) was significantly lower than that of patients aged ＞50 years (91.9％,57/62),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =30.05,P＜0.01).The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in protruding lesions with maximum diameter ≥ 3.0 cm was 98.3％ (57/58),which was higher than that of lesions with maximum diameter ＜3.0 cm(2/16),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =51.91,P＜0.01).The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in pedicle polyps group (2/13) was lower than that of sessile lesions (93.4％,57/61),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =35.72,P＜0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of CT in the diagnosis of invasive colorectal cancer was 95.0％ and 84.6％,respectively.The incidence rate of invasive carcinoma in patients with enlarged lymph nodes detected by CT (93.3 ％,42/45) was significantly higher than that of patients without enlarged lymph nodes (64.3％,18/28),and the difference was statistically significant (x2=9.95,P =0.002).Conclusions CT examination can compensate for the diagnostic deficiency of colonoscopic biopsy which inadequately diagnosed some invasive carcinoma as HGIN.The incidence of invasive cancer is high in patients with age over 50 years,large lesions,sessile lesions,CT indicating colorectal neoplasms and with enlarged lymph nodes.

Objective:To purify HLA-DR molecules. Methods: Anti-HLA-DR antibody L243 was purified and coupled with CNBr activated Sepharose 4B gel. Immunoaffinity column was used to purify HLA-DR molecules. Results:Twenty micrograms of HLA-DR molecules were isolated from about 5 g Epstein-Barr virus-transformed human B lymphoblastoid cell line RAJI lysates by affinity chromatography. The purified HLA-DR molecules existed in α/β heterodimers form and could bind to conformation-dependent antibody L243. These HLA-DR molecules were separated into two strands,α and β,by boiling denaturation. These results are the basis for studying MHC Ⅱ binding peptide motif and CD4＋ T cell epitopes of antigens in future.

To make sure the role of flagellin as mucosal adjuvants and the protective effect of streptococcus pneumonia infection when combined with DnaJ protein.Methods:Recombinant plasmid pET-28 ( a)/flagella was transferred to E.coli BL21(DE3).Over-expression of flagella was induced by IPTG and purification for animal study.All the C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups ,then respectively intranasally given the mixture of flagellin and DnaJ protein ( experimental group ) , DnaJ protein( control group 1 ) and the mixture of GST and DnaJ protein ( control group 2 ).The serum IgG and its subtype , cytokines secreted by mice spleen cells were detected by ELISA.At last all the C57BL/6 mice were intranasally immunized with Streptococcus pneumoniaD39.The protective effect by survival times were evaluated.Results: The mice of experimental group could secrete high level of serum IgG and cytokines IFN-γ,IL-4 and IL-17A.What more,the survival rate of mice in experimental group was 60%,a significant statistical difference with the control group.Conclusion:The flagellin as an adjuvant can reinforce the immune response of DnaJ protein and have better protection of resistance D 39 infection.We suggest that flagellin can be used as protein vaccine adjuvants.

Objective To study if 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine along or together with 4-phenylbutyric acid could affect miR-196b expression levels in chronic myeloid leukemia cells .Methods K562 cells were treated with DNA methylation inhibitor 5-Aza-2’-deoxycytidine, histone deacetylase inhibitors 4-phenylbutyric acid separately and the combined treatment with both of them, then expression levels of miR-196b were detected using Real-time PCR.Results The half inhibition concentration of 4-phenylbutyric acid was 1.58mmol/L.Comparing with the expression level of miR-196b in normal human bone marrow cells, the expression levels of miR-196b were significantly lower in Aza group , PBA group and negative control cells and nearly consistent among three groups , and as high as normal cells in combined treatment group . Conclusion The expression level of miR-196b in K562 cells could not return to normal treated with 5-Aza-2 ’-deoxycytidine or 4-phenylbutyric acid separately , while could restore normal when treated with both agents , indicating that miR-196b expression level in K562 cells is related with both DNA methylation and histone acetylation .
