Objective To clone cDNA encoding troponin T of Schistosoma japonicum(SjTnT),and evaluate the protective efficacy induced by recombinant SjTnT in BALB/c mice against S. japonicum challenge infection. Methods The SjTnT gene was amplified from 28-day-schistosome cDNAs by PCR and then subcloned into pET28a(+). The recombinant SjTnT protein (rSjTnT)was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)cells. The serum specific to rSjTnT was prepared by immunized BALB/c mice with the recombinant antigen,and the immunogenicity of rSjTnT was detected by Western blotting and ELISA. The immuno-protective efficacy induced by rSjTnT in BALB/c mice was evaluated according to the reduction in worm and egg counts. Results The cDNA encoding SjTnT was successfully cloned and expressed in E. coli. Western blotting showed that rSjTnT had a good immunogenicity. The high level of specific IgG antibodies was detected,and 33.89% worm reduction and 43.94% liver egg reduction were obtained in mice vaccinated with rSjTnT combined with Seppic 206 adjuvant compared with those in the adjuvant control group. Conclusions rSjTnT could induce partial immuno-protection against S. japonicum infec-tion in BALB/c mice. This study provided a basic for understanding the biological function of SjTnT.

Objective To investigate and analyze the changes of serum interleukin-34(IL-34),rheumatoid factor(RF) and nuclear factor κB receptor activator ligand(RANKL) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis Its relationship with osteoporosis.Methods A total of 40 patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis in the hospital between January 2016 and January 2017 were included in the study group,and 40 healthy subjects who underwent the same period of physical examination at the same time were enrolled as controls.By enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) were detected in 2 groups of serum IL-34 and RANKL levels were detected by latex agglutination assay of serum RF levels in 2 groups,and routine testing in patients with bone mineral density,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),C reactive protein(CRP) and anti CCP antibody.And the modified DAS28 score of disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis evaluation.Results The levels of serum IL-34,RF and RANKL in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The incidence of osteoporosis in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IL-34,RF and RANKL in the osteoporosis patients were significantly higher than those in the normal group(P＜0.05).The Spearman correlation analysis showed that the serum IL-34 levels were positively correlated with ESR,CRP,anti-CCP and DAS28 (P＜ 0.05).There was a negative correlation between serum IL-34,RF and RANKL levels and bone mineral density(P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum IL-34,RF and RANKL in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were significantly increased,and the above indexes were negatively correlated with bone mineral density.It suggested that IL-34 may be involved in osteoporosis.

Radiation sensitive protein 23 (RAD23) is a nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein that plays an important role in Ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP). Schistosoma japonicum radiation sensitive protein23 (SjRAD23) cDNA sequences were amplified by PCR and cloned into pET28a (+) vector to construct recombinant expression plasmid pET28a(+)-SjRAD23. The recombinant protein was expressed as both inclusion bodies and the supernatant in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cell. Immunofluorescence observation shows that SjRAD23 was mainly distributed on the tegument surface of the worms. ELISA assay reveals that specific IgG, IgG1 and IgG2a antibodies could be detected in the sera of rSjRAD23 immunized mice. Western blotting analysis shows that the recombinant SjRAD23 could be recognized by serum specific to soluble adult worm antigen of S. japonicum. BALB/c mice vaccinated with rSjRAD23 combined with 206 adjuvant revealed 35.94% worm reduction and 40.59% liver egg reduction when compared with that of the adjuvant control

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of metabolic parameters of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(FDG PET-CT)before radiotherapy in patients with esophageal cancer receiving radiotherapy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 37 patients with stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ esophageal squamous cell carcinoma admitted to Anhui Provincial Hospital from 2010 to 2015,who underwent PET-CT scans within 4 weeks before radiotherapy. The following information was collected:age,sex,the location of primary lesion,clinical stage,and treatment regimen.The maximum standard uptake value(SUVmax), mean standard uptake value(SUVmean), metabolic tumor volume(MTV), PET tumor length(PTL),and total lesion glycolysis(TLG)were calculated. The optimal cut-off values of SUVmax, SUVmean,MTV,PTL,and TLG were determined by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates,and the log-rank test was used for survival comparison and univariate prognostic analysis;the Cox model was used for multivariate prognostic analysis of significant variables. Results The area under the ROC curve suggested that MTV>TLG>PTL=0.713>0.679>0.670. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients had better survival time when MTV was less than 27.44 cm3,TLG was less than 166.2 g,and PTL was less than 36.74 mm(P<0.05).The Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that only MTV was an independent prognostic factor for radiotherapy in patients with esophageal cancer(P=0.000). Conclusions MTV, TLG and PTL have certain values in predicting the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer before radiotherapy, and are helpful for selecting and adjust the clinical treatment regimen and improving the survival rate and prognosis.

The 26S proteasome is a proteolytic complex responsible for the degradation of the vast majority of eukaryotic proteins. Regulated proteolysis by the proteasome is thought to influence cell cycle progression, transcriptional control, and other critical cellular processes. A novel Schistosoma japonicum gene (GenBank Accession No. AY813725) proteasome alpha2 subunit (SjPSMA2) was cloned. Sequence analysis revealed that the ORF of SjPSMA2 gene contains 708 nucleotides encoding 235 amino acids, and the molecular weight was estimated to be 25.84 kDa. Real-time PCR analysis showed that this gene expressed in 7 d, 13 d, 18 d, 23 d, 32 d and 42 d schistosoma. The mRNA level of SjPSMA2 was lower in 7 d and 23 d schistosomulum than that in other stages. The SjPSMA2 cDNA fragment was subcloned into an expression vector pET28a(+) and transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3) cells. After induction with IPTCQ the 30 kDa fusion protein was produced as included bodies. Western-blotting revealed that the fusion protein could be recognized by the rabbit serum anti-Schistosoma japonicum adult worm antigen preparation, and the protein in native could be detected. After immunization of BALB/c mice with the fusion protein, the reduction rates of worm counts and liver egg counts were 12.33% and 35.23%. ELISA results revealed that the vaccinated group showed a significant increase in the level of IgG antibody. This study provided an important basis for investigating the regulation mechanism of the proteasome during the development of Schistosoma japonicum.

The present study was intend to clone and express the cDNA encoding Cyclophilin B (CyPB) of Schistosoma japonicum, its preliminary biological function and further immunoprotective effect against schistosome infection in mice. RT-PCR technique was applied to amplify a full-length cDNA encoding protein Cyclophilin B (Sj CyPB) from schistosomula cDNA. The expression profiles of Sj CyPB were determined by Real-time PCR using the template cDNAs isolated from 7, 13, 18, 23, 32 and 42 days parasites. The cDNA containing the Open Reading Frame of CyPB was then subcloned into a pGEX-6P-1 vector and transformed into competent Escherichia coli BL21 for expressing. The recombinant protein was renaturated, purified and its antigenicity were detected by Western blotting, and the immunoprotective effect induced by recombinant Sj CyPB was evaluated in Balb/C mice. The cDNA containing the ORF of Sj CyPB was cloned with the length of 672 base pairs, encoding 223 amino acids. Real-time PCR analysis revealed that the gene had the highest expression in 18-day schistosomula, suggesting that Sj CyPB was schistosomula differentially expressed gene. The recombinant protein showed a good antigenicity detected by Western blotting. Animal experiment indicated that the vaccination of recombinant CyPB protein in mice led to 31.5% worm and 41.01% liver egg burden reduction, respectively, compared with those of the control. A full-length cDNA differentially expressed in schistosomula was obtained. The recombinant Sj CyPB protein could induce partial protection against schistosome infection.
