Based on the transcriptome data, we cloned the open reading frame of IiHCT gene from Isatis indigotica, and then performed bioinformatic analysis of the sequence. Further, we detected expression pattern in specific organs and hairy roots treated methyl jasmonate( MeJA) by RT-PCR. The IiHCT gene contains a 1 290 bp open reading frame( ORF) encoding a polypeptide of 430 amino acids. The predicted isoelectric point( pI) was 5.7, a calculated molecular weight was about 47.68 kDa. IiHCT was mainly expressed in stem and undetectable in young root, leaf and flower bud. After the treatment of MeJA, the relative expression level of IiHCT increased rapidly. The expression level of IiHCT was the highest at 4 h and maintained two fold to control during 24 h. In this study, cloning of IiHCT laid the foundation for illustrating the biosynthesis mechanism of phenylpropanoids in I. indigotica.

Objective To explore the differences and similarities of clinical characteristics,pathological features, treatment and prognosis between primary gastric lymphoma(PGL)and primary intestinal lymphoma (PIL). Methods The clinical characteristics, pathological features, therapeutic results, the detection of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and prognosis of 48 PGL cases and 15 PIL cases were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was no statistical significance in age, gender, abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, B symptoms, clinical stage, mortality between PGL and PIL groups (P>0. 05). However, there were significant differences in the pathological type, acute abdomen emergency surgery between these two groups (P<0. 05). There was 12 Hp positive cases in mucosalassociated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of PGL group (12/19), and 5 Hp positive cases in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (5/20). There was significant difference in Hp detection rate of these two pathological types. Hp was not found in PIL group. The Cox multivariate analysis indicated that stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was the independent adverse factors affecting PGL prognosis (P<0. 05).Conclusions Mainly histological types are DLBCL and MALT lymphoma in PGL, and DLBCL in PIL.PIL predispose to T-cell lymphoma compared with PGL. MALT lymphoma is rare in PIL group. The mainly clinical stage is Ⅲ-Ⅳ both in PGL group and PIL group. Emergency surgery is often needed in PIL because of intussusception or perforation. The prognosis of PGL is correlated with the stage and the prognosis of PIL are correlated with the stage, B symptoms and T cell phenotype.

AIM: To investigate the effect of advanced glycosylation end products on the expression of receptor for advanced glycosylation end products in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells. METHODS: Monocytes were purified (over 98%) using anti-CD14+ microbeads. After 8 d culture in RPMI-1640 medium containing rhGM-CSF (100 ?g/L) and rhIL-4 (50 ?g/L), immature MDCs were derived, then exposed to AGE-BSA (0 or 200 mg/L) for 24 h. Expression of RAGE was semi-quantified by RT-PCR and Western blotting. At the same time, supernatants were collected. IFN-? and IL-12 were analyzed by ELISA. RESULTS: mRNA and protein of RAGE incubated by 200 mg/L AGE-BSA was higher than that in control at 24 h. Treatment of DCs with AGE-BSA resulted in about two-fold increase in the expression of RAGE (P

AIM: The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanisms related to oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL) and dendritic cells(DCs) in the process of atherosclerosis.METHODS: Human DCs were prepared from human CD14~+ peripheral blood monocytes using rhGM-CSF((100 ?g/L)) and rhIL-4(40 ?g/L).Cells were incubated with(100 mg/L) native or oxidized LDL for 72 h.The formation of foam cells was investigated by electron microscopy and oil red O staining.Phenotypic and immune functional assays were used with FACS,FITC-dextran phagocytosis,allogeneic mixed T lymphocytes reaction and secretion of Th1/Th2(IL-12/IL-2) cytokines were also conduced.RESULTS: DCs treated with ox-LDL,but not native LDL were induced into foam cells after cultured for 72 h.Compared with native LDL,ox-LDL-treated DCs were less potent in FITC-dextran phagocytosis.ox-LDL promoted allogeneic T cells proliferation.Moreover,ox-LDL upregulated CD80(72.4? 9.6 vs 89.5?10.1,P

Objective Through co-culture Kupffer cells with hepatocyte in vitro,to understand the influence of Kupffer cells on the growth、morphology and metabolism of hepatocyte.Methods In-situ IV collagenase two-step perfusion method to digest SD rat liver,apply low speed centrifugalization to isolate parenchymal hepatic cells and densitygradient centrifugation by percoll fluid to isolate Kupffer cells respectively.Inoculate hepatocyte cells into 6 holes culture plate to culture alone and/or co-culture with Kupffer cells in the proportion six to one,the growth,morphous of hepatocyte are observed under the light microscope and the level of albumin and glucose in the culture supernatant are detected by automatic biochemistry meter,and compare synthesis function and metabolism of hepatocytes culture alone and coculture with Kupffer cells.Results The hepatocytes of culture alone their growth and developed to normal hepatocytes morphous quickly,2 weeks later the cells death occurs,after 21 days the hepatocytes culture alone are totaly death,when hepatocytes co-culture with kupffer cells that proliferate slower than that culture alone.The hepatocites beginning to death 48 hours later, and totally death after 10 days co-culture.The culture supernatant was collected and tested the level of albumin and glucose at 24 hours intervals.In culture alone group,the albumin level is significant higher than in co-culture group at 48h、96h、120h、144h、168h(P

OBJECTIVETo comparatively study the curative effects of combined massage-smouldering-washing therapy (MSW) and mini-invasive surgery in treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) of mild-moderate degree so as to provide a suitable therapeutic protocol.

METHODSSixty patients with KOA were assigned to two groups. The treatment group was treated with MSW once a day for 10 days as one course, and 4 courses were applied totally with an interval of 3 days between courses. The control group was treated with mini-invasive surgery by arthroscopic mopping, followed with post-operational intra-articular cavity injection with sodium hyaluronate injection, 20 mg every week for 5 times continuously. The therapeutic effect and the changes in scores of clinical symptoms and signs before and after treatment in the two groups were observed and compared.

RESULTSOutcome of 3-month follow-up showed the effective rate was 90% in the treatment group and 93.33% in the control group; scores of clinical symptoms and signs effectively improved in both groups, but the improvement on the 4 items (joint pain, swelling, soreness of loin and knee, and cold aversion of knee) was superior in the treatment group, while that on the other 4 items (pain during squatting or half-squatting, up stairs or down stairs, joint stiffiness and joint kinetic capacity) was superior in the control group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONBoth MSW and mini-invasive surgery have definite curative effect on KOA but with different particularities.
