In order to construct a eukaryotic expression vector of bovine c-myc gene, the coding sequence (CDS) of c-myc gene was amplified from bovine primordial genital ridges by RT-PCR. The CDS was subcloned into pMD19-T vector, and then inserted into vector pIRES2-AcGFP1-Nuc. After confirmed by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing, the recombined plasmid was transfected into skin fibroblast cells. RT-PCR and Western Blotting were used to detect the expression of c-myc mRNA and protein, respectively. The results show that the complete CDS of c-myc gene was cloned from fetal bovine primordial genital ridges. The eukaryotic expression vector of bovine c-myc gene was constructed and efficiently expressed in the skin fibroblast cells. The present study will lay a good foundation for further study of c-myc gene function and bovine induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cells by defined factors.

Objective To explore the feasibility of visually assessment of angiogenesis in a murine model of subcutaneous matrigel plugs with ultrasound molecular imaging(UMI) using microbubbles(MB)targeted to endothelial αv-integrins. Methods Matrigel angiogenesis was created by subcutaneous implantation of FGF-2 enriched matrigel in 10 mice. On day 10, UMI of the matrigel was performed in all mice at 6 minutes after intravenous injection of either αv-integrin targeting microbubbles(MBα) or isotype control microbubbles(MBc) in random with 30 min interval,and the video intensity(Ⅵ) was measured. To further test the specificity of the signal coming from MBα,antibody against αv-integrin was injected 10 min before microbubbles injection. Following UMI,all matrigels were harvested for histological analysis. Results As expected,VI of the matrigel was significantly higher ( P <0.05) for MBα (20. 5 ± 3.3)U as compared with MBc (4. 8 ± 1.5)U. After blocking with antibody against αv-integrin,a great decrease was observed in the MBα group [VI (4.6 ± 1.2) U, P <0.05] while no significant difference was noted for MBc [VI (4. 9 ±1.5)U, P > 0.05 ]. Neovessels within matrigel was positive for αv-integrin. Conclusions UMI with microbubbles targeted to αv-integrins can be effective and specific in evaluating the angiogenesis in a murine model of subcutaneous matrigel plugs.

Objective To develop nanometer-scale bubbles with surfaces of N-palmitoyl chitosan(PLCS) as ultrasound contrast agent and evaluate its characteristics and acoustic effects in vivo. Methods The PLCS nanobubbles were prepared using a cutting technique at differential high-frequency of shear speed. Both optical and transmission electron micrography were performed to determine the nanobubble size and morphology. Concentration, size-distribution and zeta potential of the PLCS nanobubbles were measured by cell counting chamber, Malvern lazer particle analyzer and zeta-sizer at 1-day, 45-day and 90-day. The acoustic effects of the PLCS nanobubbles on myocardium and renal tissue in 6 normal rats were observed using bolus infusion of the nanobubbles intravenously. The maximum video intensity(VI) was measured.Results The PLCS nanobubbles with nice round-shape and uniform site-distribution were demonstrated.The mean diameter,concentration and zeta potential of the PLCS nanobubbles were (617 ± 12) nm, (7.2 ±0.6) × 109/ml and (52.9 ± 1.3)mV at the 1-day,and all of parameters did not change significantly in 45-day and 90-day ( P > 0. 05). A significant contrast-enhancement was noted on myocardium and renal tissue during infusion of the nanobubbles. VI on both tissues was (15.6 ± 1.1)GU and (27.3 ± 2.5)GU,respectively. The visual contrast-enhancement last up to (10 ± 2)min. Conclusions The PLCS nanometerscale bubbles have excellent physical-features and contrast-enhanced ultrasound effects in vivo. It may develop as a novel contrast ultrasound agent which could cross endothelial cell membrances.

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), a natriuretic peptide hormone, is mainly secreted by cardiomyocytes when they are pulled by mechanical force. BNP acts to increase natriuresis and decrease vascular resistance, thereby decreasing blood volume, systemic blood pressure and afterload. It is not only the main indicators of cardiac function which is widely used in clinical, recent studies have also shown that it has a very important value in identifying sudden cardiac death(SCD). However, the exact expression of the regulation mechanism is still unknown. This paper reviewed the structure, expression of the regulation mechanism of BNP, and the application progress in clinical and forensic.
