The estrogen related receptor family member Esrrb (Estrogen related receptor β) is a gene that expresses in the early stage of embryo and plays an important role in the core pluripotent network. Its function has been analyzed in human and mouse, although no report so far related to pig. Therefore, to explore its mechanism of transcriptional regulation and expression pattern, we cloned a 3.3 kb pig ESRRB promoter by PCR and constructed the green fluorescence protein (GFP) reporter vector pE3.3. We used these vectors to study the ESRRB expression pattern in 293T, Hela and C2C12. Sequence was analyzed for regulatory elements that share homology to known transcription factor binding sites by TFSEARCH and JASPER program. Some pluripotency related genes such as SMAD, STAT3, MYC, KLF4 and ESRRB have been found within the 3.3 kb sequence by co-transfected pig ESRRB promoter and these potential regulators. We found that ESRRB only expressed in 293T and SMAD could activate ESRRB expression obviously. To determine the core promoter region, a series of ESRRB promoter fragments with gradually truncated 5'-end were produced by PCR and inserted into pGL3-Basic vector. After transient transfection into 293T, dual luciferase assay was used to measure these promoter activities. The result suggested that the core promoter of pig ESRRB located within -25 bp to -269 bp region. These results suggest that these transcription factor binding sites and the core promoter region may be essential for transcriptional regulation of pig ESRRB gene.

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the carrier ratio and the genotype of thalassemia among Tujia and Miao people of reproductive age in Chongqing.Methods:According to forward-looking design and multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, fasting venous blood samples of Tujia and Miao people of reproductive age were collected from 11 survey sites in Chongqing from March to July 2019. Gap-PCR and high-throughput sequencing were used to screen thalassemia genes.Results:A total of 516 Tujia people (258 males, 258 females) and 270 Miao people (139 males, 131 females) were included in this study, and their age were (28.63 ± 5.26) and (28.62 ± 5.35) years, respectively. About 5.04% (26/516) Tujia people carried thalassemia gene, with 1.94% (10/516) and 2.52% (13/516) for α and β thalassemia, respectively. Three kinds of new variants (1 case of each variant), HBA 2: c.46G>A (Gly>Ser), HBB: c.*+129T>A and HBB: c.-39T>G with unclear pathogenicity, were identified in Tujia people. About 7.78% (21/270) Miao people carried thalassemia gene, among these, α and β thalassemia were 3.33% (9/270) and 4.44%(12/270), respectively. The most common mutation type of α-globin gene was -α 3.7/in the two ethnic groups. Three kinds of β-globin gene mutation types, Codons 41/42 (-TTCT) beta 0, Codon 17 (A>T) beta 0 and IVS-Ⅱ-654 (C>T) beta +, were the most common in Tujia people. Meanwhile, the chief β-globin gene mutation type was Codons 41/42 (-TTCT) beta 0 in Miao people. Conclusions:The carrying rate of thalassemia gene is higher in Tujia and Miao people in Chongqing, and the genotypes of thalassemia gene are different between Tujia and Miao people. The clinical significance of three kinds of new variants with unclear pathogenicity should be focused on.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral prednisone in patients with relapsing neuromyeli?tis optica. Methods Seventeen patients with relapsing neuromyelitis optica receiving long-term oral prednisone had been followed. The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and annualized relapse rates were used to evaluate curative effect. Results During long-term oral prednisone treatment, patients had a significant reduction in the EDSS [(3.09 ± 0.85) vs. (4.06 ± 0.80), P<0.05] and the median annualized relapse rate was significant reduced [(0.34 ± 0.31) vs. (1.51 ± 0.57), P<0.005]. But the effect of different dosage of prednisone on annualized relapse rates was not different. No severe adverse re?actions were observed. Conclusions Treatment with long-term oral prednisone in patients with NMO significantly reduces relapse rates, improves neurological function and the treatment was well-tolerated.

Oocyte-like cells (OLC) can be generated by stem cells after the induction and differentiation in vitro, and maturated when transplanted in vivo to improve the development potential. Human amniotic fluid stem cells (hAFSC) were cultured for 10 days in porcine follicle fluid (pFF) that was extracted from the medium follicle with high levels of hormones and Bmp 15 protein. After the induction, the cell aggregates showed the germ cell-like cells and produced the germ cell marker oct4, and triggered epigenetic changes with high expression of methylation transferase gene dnmt3b. The cell aggregates were packaged into porcine theca folliculi to form grafts, which were then transplanted into mouse renal capsule. After one month of transplantation, the morphology of OLC from a graft was not only similar to oocytes, but also expressed the germ cells markers (oct4, nanog, stella, ifitm3, dazl, nanos3, bmp15, and gd9). The results demonstrate that the in vivo differentiation model was useful for OLC development.

Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a membrane protein which is attached to the cellular external membrane. The uPAR expression can be observed both in tumor cells and in tumor-associated stromal cells. Thus, in the present study, the human amino-terminal fragment (hATF), as a targeting element to uPAR, is used to conjugate to the surface of superparamagnetic iron nanoparticle (SPIO). Flowcytometry was used to examine the uPAR expression in different tumor cell lines. The specificity of hATF-SPIO was verified by Prussian blue stain and cell phantom test. The imaging properties of hATF-SPIO were confirmed in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of uPAR-elevated colon tumor. Finally, the distribution of hATF-SPIO in tumor tissue was confirmed by pathological staining. Results showed that the three cells in which we screened, presented different expression characteristics, i. e., Hela cells strongly expressed uPAR, HT29 cells moderately expressed uPAR, but Lovo cells didn't express uPAR. In vitro, after incubating with Hela cells, hATF-SPIO could specifically combined to and be subsequently internalized by uPAR positive cells, which could be observed via Prussian blue staining. Meanwhile T2WI signal intensity of Hela cells, after incubation with targeted probe, significantly decreased, and otherwise no obvious changes in Lovo cells both by Prussian blue staining and MRI scans. In vivo, hATF-SPIO could be systematically delivered to HT29 xenograft and accumulated in the tumor tissue which was confirmed by Prussian Blue stain compared to Lovo xenografts. Twenty-four hours after injection of targeting probe, the signal intensity of HT29 xenografts was lower than Lovo ones which was statistically significant. This targeting nanoparticles enabled not only in vitro specifically combining to uPAR positive cells but also in vivo imaging of uPAR moderately elevated colon cancer lesions.

Objective To establish a tibial cancer pain model with MADB-106 mammary gland carcinoma cell line and to conduct therapeutic research through the behavior pain, X-ray, histological observation of the model. MethodsA rat model of bone cancer pain was established by intra-tibial inoculations of MADB-106 rat mamnary gland carcinoma cells in SD rats. Spontaneous pain was assessed by the reflection of spontaneous paw withdraw, move-evoked pain was observed by the extent of lower extremity claudication when the rats walked and heat hyperalgesia was evaluated by using a thermal dolorimeter. The structural damage of the bone was monitored by X-ray and histology.ResultsThe model group spontaneously withdrawed their paws (14.42±1.24) times on the 15th day after operation (P <0.001), (18.33±1.37) times on the 22nd day (P <0.001), (21.25±1.54) times on the 25th day (P <0.001). The radiant pain thresholds of the model group was (1 1.86±1.63) s on the 15th day after operation (P <0.001), (8.38±1.05) s on the 22nd day (P <0.001), (7.47±1.25) times on the 25th day (P <0.001). The move-evoked pain score of the model group was (1.25±0.62) on the 15th day after operation (P <0.001), (2.00±0.95) on the 22nd day (P <0.001), (2.33±1.07)on the 25th day (P <0.001). The results showed that rats of the model group displayed the gradual development of spontaneous pain, heat hyperalgesia and move-evoked pain on the 15-25 days after injection of the tumor cells. The X-ray of the tibia showed clear bone destruction. The histology of the bone showed the bone marrow cavity was full of tumor cells and the cortical bone had been destroyed. ConclusionThe bone cancer model has been built well and it will be useful to evaluate the therapy of cancer pain after two weeks.

The aim of this study is to identify the express specificity of bone morphogenetic protein 15 (Bmp15) in porcine. The pBMP15-EGFP reporter vector was constructed from the 2.2 kb fragment of porcine bmp15 promoter to trace the differentiation process of stem cells into oocyte-like cells. We used porcine ovary and Chinese Hamster Ovary cell line (CHO), mouse myoblast cell line (C2C12) and porcine amniotic fluid stem cell (pAFSC) to investigate the expression and regulation of this gene via RT-PCR, immunofluorescence, cell transfection, and microinjection methods. We also used single layer cell differentiation to detect the application potential of bmp15. The results show that bmp15 gene was specifically expressed in the porcine ovary and CHO rather than in C2C12 and pAFSC. In addition, the characteristic of tissue-specific of Bmp15 was detected on CHO instead of other cell lines by transient transfection. We also detected the expression of Bmp15 in oocyte at different development stages by immunofluorescence of fixed paraffin-embedded ovary sections. Furthermore, microinjection results show that bmp15 expressed in oocytes at 18 h of maturation in vitro, and continued up to 4-cell stage embryos. Most importantly, we found that the expression of Bmp15 started at day 12 after inducing pAFSC into oocyte-like cells by transfection; green fluorescent was visible in round cell masses. It indicated that bmp15 has the expression specificity and the pBMP15-EGFP reporter vector can be used to trace Bmp15 action in the differentiation of stem cells into germ cells.
