We prepared gold nanostar (GNS) through seed growth method firstly,then formation of COX-2 siRNA(siCOX-2) and GNS composite modified with polyethylene glyco (PEG),2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucos (DG) and 9-D-arginin (9R) was prepared.Mterwords,paclitaxel temperature sensitive liposome (PTX-TSL) was prepared by film dispersion method.Finally,siCOX-2 delivery systerm (PTX-TSL-(siCOX-2(9R/DG-GNS)))was obtained by hydrosulfuryl ligand reaction between siCOX-2 (9R/DG-GNS) and PTX-TSL The successful build of siCOX-2 (9R/DG-GNS) was vetified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR),sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacryl amide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE),and ultraviolet spectrophotometry and agarose gel electrophoresis method.Particle size of PTX-TSL-(siCOX-2(9R/DG-GNS)) was (292 ± 14) nm and Zeta potential was about -(2.59 ± 0.12) mV,which were measured by Zetasizer Nano ZS90.The morphology of PTX-TSL-(siCOX-2 (9R/DG-GNS)) measured by transmissionelectronmicroscopy showed homogeneous star structure with phospholipid bilayer on the surface,and it showed good thermal conversion efficiency under radiation of 808 nm laser.Differential scanning calorimetry test showed that PTX-TSL phase transition temperature is about 42.6 ℃.The drug loading content(using dialysis method) and encapsulation efficiency of PTX-TSL were about 7.5% and 95.4%,at the same time,the release process experiment of PTX-TSL showed that it had a good temperature sensitive release performance.It is hopeful that this siCOX-2 system can be used for reducing drug resistance of PTX and improving the treatment effect of PTX through the synergistic antitumor drug resistance effect of siCOX-2.

Objective:To develop a method of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker( QAMS) for nine kinds of alkaloids in Xiaohuoluo pills. Methods: An HPLC-QTOF-MS method with an Agilent ZORBAX Extend-C18 RRHT(2. 1 mm × 50 mm,1. 8 μm) column was applied. The flow rate was 0. 21 ml·min-1 . The column temperature was 30 ℃. The mobile phase was methanol (A)-water (B;containing 0. 1% formic acid and 2. 5 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate) with gradient elution. The aconitine was used as the internal standard, and the relative correction factor ( RCFs) of hypaconitine, mesaconitine, benzoylaconine, benzoyl-hypaconine, benzoylmesaconine, aconine, hypaconine and mesaconine was respectively established, and the reproducibility inspection on the RCF was performed. The contents of the other 8 kinds of aconitum alkaloids were calculated according to the RCF. At the same time, an external standard method ( ESM) was performed for the content determination of the nine alkaloids. The results of the two methods were compared. The feasibility and accuracy of the QAMS method were verified. Results:Within a certain range,the RCF of hypacontine,mesacontine, benzoylaconine, benzoylhypaconine, benzoyl mesaconine, aconine, hypaconine and mesaconine to aconitine was 1. 736,1. 979,1. 0471,0. 9242,1. 2901,1. 3078,1. 2859,and 1. 0948,respectively. The QAMS method was established for determi-ning alkaloids. There were no significant differences between the results of the QAMS method and those of the external standard method ( ESM) . Conclusion:With the validation of methodology, the method established in our study can be used for the content determina-tion of aconitine, hypaconitine, mesaconitine, benzoylaconine, benzoylhypaconine, benzoylmesaconine, aconine, hypaconine and mesaconine in xiaohuoluo pills.

Objective To prepare the human bone sialoprotein (BSP) monoclonal antibodies (mAb)with high titer and specificity and identify its characterization,which is based on further studying BSP as clinical biomarker for breast cancer metastasizing to bone. Methods BALB/c mice were immunized with purified recombinant BSP protein.Cell fusion was performed between mouse splenic cells and myeloma cells (Sp2/0), and then the hybridoma cell lines secreting mAb against BSP antigen were screened and cloned. The ascites were prepared and purified with Protein G affinity chromatography.The titer and subtypes of mAb against BSP were identified and measured by ELISA and Western blotting analysis. ResultsNine hybridoma cell lines that stably secreted mAb against BSP were successfully obtained.Two of them,D001 and D002,were further identified, which belonged to the subtypes of IgG1 and κ light chain. The two antibodies titers in culture supernatant were 1∶5120 and 1∶10 240, respectively, and those in the ascites fluid were 1∶25 600 and 1∶51 200,respectively.Results of Western blotting analysis and immunohistochemistry showed that the two antibodies could specifically bind with BSP derived from human breast cancer cells.ConclusionNine mAb against BSP have been successfully prepared which can be used for further studying the biological properties of BSP and reveal its relationship with data from clinic patients.

Objective To express and purify recombinant and biologically active Clostridium difficile toxin B (rTcdB). Methods The genes of TcdB were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using chromosomal DNA from a toxigenic strain, and cloned into a shuttle vector pHis1522.The sequences of TcdB genes in the vector were verified by DNA sequencing. The construction was transformed into Bacillus megaterium protoplasts and the protein expression was driven by a xylose promoter. The purified protein was tested for biological activity. Results rTcdB was successfully purified from bacterial crude extracts. Approximately 5-10 mg of highly purified recombinant toxin was obtained from one liter of bacterial culture. The expressed rTcdB had molecular mass similar to the native toxin, and its biological activity was proved to be similar to its native counterpart after an extensive examination. Conclusion rTcdB with biological activities is successfully expressed in Bacillus megaterium.
