Objective To investigate the expressions of inflammatory factors in papillary thyroid carcinoma tissue and their relationships with the clinical pathological characteristics,and to provide an experimental basis for guiding clinical treatment and prognosis.Methods 74 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma dignosed by puncture were selected as experimental group,and 26 cases of healthy people were used as normal control group.The fasting venous blood samples from the subjects in two groups were collected,and the postoperative specimens from cancer tissue,adjacent normal tissue and the fasting venous blood 7 d after operation of the patients in experimental group were collected again.The interleukin 1α(IL-1α),interleukin 1β(IL-1β)and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)protein expression levels in serum,cancer adjacent normal tissue and cancer tissue were detected by ELISA;the gene and protein expression levels of IL-1α,IL-1βand COX-2 were examined by real-time fluorescent quantitative method and immunohistochemistry;the relationships between their expressions and clinical stages, pathological types,lymph node metastasis of thyroid papillary carcinoma were analyzed.Results The expression levels of serum IL-1α,IL-1βand COX-2 protein of the patients in experimental group were significantly higher than those in normal control group (P<0.01);the gene and protein expression levels of IL-1α,IL-1βand COX-2 in thyroid papillary carcinoma tissue were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissue (P<0.01).There were positive correlations between the expressions of IL-1αand IL-1β,IL-1αand COX-2,IL-1βand COX-2 in thyroid papillary carcinoma tissue (r=0.64,P=0.035;r=0.71,P=0.042;r=0.69,P=0.038).Conclusion The expression levels of IL-1α, IL-1βand COX-2 in thyroid papillary carcinoma tissue are increased, suggesting that inflammation is involved in metastasis and invasion of thyroid papillary carcinoma,its application is expected to become a new means of cancer treatment strategies.

This study was aimed to identify pET21b-HPV16E2/BL21(DE3) strain and to optimize the expression of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) E2 protein by orthogonal analysis. Four influence factors on two levels were selected to increase the target protein quantity. The four factors were induction time, induction temperature, inductor concentration and cell density. The quantity of HPV16 E2 protein was used as the evaluation parameter. Induced by IPTG, HPV16 E2 protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western Blot. Target protein was analyzed by GIS imaging system to quantify the protein level. SPSS13. 0 software was applied to analyze the result. Data showed that the expression strain pET211rHPV16 E2/BL21(DE3) was identified correctly. HPV16 E2 protein expressed mainly at insoluble form. The 42KD protein band was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Orthogonal test was applied on influence factor analysis and expression optimization successfully. Main influence factors were inductor concentration and induction temperature. The optimimum condition of maximum expression quantity was 37 degrees C, 7h, 1.0 mmol/L IPTG and OD600 1.0. In this experiment, orthogonal test could not only be used to analyze the influential factors and promote the target protein expression, but also be used to provide a better experiment method for molecular biological study.

Objective:To evaluate the role of has_circ_0008039 and miR-484 in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) injury in SK-N-SH cells and the relationship with Fis1.Methods:SK-N-SH cells were cultured in vitro to logarithmic growth stage and divided into 5 groups ( n=25 each) according to the random number table method: control group (group C), OGD/R group, has_circ_0008039 siRNA group (group S), hsa_circ_0008039 over-expression group (group E) and has_circ_0008039 siRNA plus miR-484 inhibitor group (group S+ I). Cells were cultured in normal condition in group C. In S, E and S+ I groups, after the cells were transfected with hsa_circ_0008039 siRNA, has_circ_0008039 over-expression vector, hsa_circ_0008039 siRNA and miR-484 inhibitor, the cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation for 12 h followed by 24 h restoration of O 2-glucose supply to develop the OGD/R model.At 24 h of restoration of O 2-glucose supply, the cell viability and amount of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) released were measured using CCK-8 assay, the expression of hsa_circ_0008039, miR-484 and Fis1 mRNA was detected using real-time polymerase chain reaction, and the expression of Fis1 was detected by Western blot.A dual-fluorescein experimental report was used to verify the targeting relationship between hsa_circ_0008039 and miR-484. Results:Compared with group C, the cell viability was significantly decreased, and the amount of LDH released was increased in the other 4 groups, the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and Fis1 was significantly up-regulated, and the expression of miR-484 was down-regulated in OGD/R and E groups, the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and Fis1 was significantly down-regulated, and miR-484 was up-regulated in group S, and the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and miR-484 was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of Fis1 was up-regulated in group S+ I ( P<0.05). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell viability was significantly decreased, and the amount of LDH released was increased in E and S+ I groups, the cell viability was significantly increased, and the amount of LDH released was decreased in group S, the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and Fis1 was significantly up-regulated, and the expression of miR-484 was down-regulated in group E, the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and Fis1 was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of miR-484 was up-regulated in group S, and the expression of hsa_circ_0008039 and miR-484 was significantly down-regulated, and the expression of Fis1 was up-regulated in group S+ I ( P<0.05). Compared with group S, the cell viability was significantly decreased, the amount of LDH released was increased, the expression of miR-484 was down-regulated, and the expression of Fis1 was up-regulated in group S+ I ( P<0.01). The dual-fluorescein experimental report verified that miR-484 was the target of hsa_circ_0008039 which binded to miR-484 specifically. Conclusions:has_circ_0008039 is involved in OGD/R injury in SK-N-SH cells by targetedly binding to miR-484, which is associated with up-regulation of Fis1 expression.
