Objective To investigate the role of cHSP60 in the pathogenesis of murine cervicitis.Methods Fifty female C3H/HeN mice were randomly and equally classified into 5 groups, including the control group receiving no treatment and 4 groups receiving intravaginal inoculation of cHSP60 (cHSP60 group),live elementary bodies of Chlamydia trachomatis mouse pneumonitis (MoPn group), inactive elementary bodies of MoPn (inactive MoPn group) and growth medium (medium group), respectively. Five days after the inoculation,cervical tissue was resected from these mice and subjected to pathological examination. Results There were varying degrees of inflammatory reaction characterized by neutrophil infiltration, necrosis and shedding of mucosal cells in the cervices of mice in cGSP60 and MoPn groups. No statistical difference was observed in the incidence of cervicitis (90% vs. 80%, P > 0.05), neutrophile count [76.00 (25.0 - 80.0) vs. 25.00 (8.75 -32.5), P> 0.05] or inflammation score [12.5 (11.5 - 14.25) vs. 9.00 (8.00 - 11.5), P > 0.05] between the cHSP60 and MoPn group. The inflammatory reaction was weak with decreased incidence of cervicitis (40%),inflammation score [0.00 (0.00- 12.50)] and neutrophile count [0.00 (0.00- 15.50)] in inactive MoPn group compared with the cHSP60 and MoPn groups (all P < 0.05). A small number of neutrophils migrated into the superficial layer of cervical mucosa in only 2 mice in the medium group. Conclusion cHSP60 may be a primary pathogenic factor in chlamydial genital tract infection.

BACKGROUND: Pathophysiological mechanism of local microenvironment is complex after central nerve injury; especially,both inflammatory reaction at an acute phase and formation of secondary glial scar have tremendous effects on effective regeneration of axon, regeneration and arrangement of local nerve cells, proliferation and migration of local stem cells;therefore, it becomes a basic reason for blocking nerve repair in an early period. Thus, how to effectively resist inflammatory factors in injured region at an acute phase and how to optimize microenvironment of neural regeneration are the most important strategies for repairing spinal cord injury in recent years.OBJECTIVE: To design, establish and screen the best expression of interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) α to inhibit shRNA adenovirus expression vector by using spinal cord injury models.DESIGN: Duplicative measurement study.SETTING: Department of Spine Surgery, the Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen.MATERIALS: A total of 40 healthy Wistar rats, either gender, 8-10 weeks old, were selected in this study. Rabbit-anti-rat glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) antibody Ⅰ was provided by Santa Cruz Compan; siRNA eukaryon expression plasmid pGenesil (cohtaining green fluorescent expression system) was provided by Wuhan Jingsai Bioengineering Company.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in ImmuneOpening Laboratory, Basic Medical Faulty, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and Medica Laboratory Center, the Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen in November 2006. Three pairs of shRNA template which composed of 19 bp reverse repeated motif of IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) α target sequence with 9 bp spacer were designed and synthesized, then the recombinant adenovirus expression vectors with green fluorescence protein were constructed in vitro respectively. The acute spinal cord injury models were completed, and the adenovirus recombinants were regionally injected post 12 hours after spinal cord injury;in addition, the inhibitory effect of RNA interference (RNAi) on expression of IL-6R in local region after spinal cord injury were detected by using real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot so as to screen adenovirus expression vector which had the best inhibitory effect on expression of IL-6R.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Inhibitory effect of RNAi on expressions of IL-6R RNA and protein in local region after spinal cord injury.RESULTS: Sequence analysis showed that IL-6R-shRNA recombinant adenovirus expression vector was successfully constructed, and optimal IL-6R-shRNA recombinant adenovirus expression vector was screened by using real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot. The IL-6R expressions were 49% and 56% at the levels of mRNA and protein, respectively.CONCLUSION: The IL-6R--shRNA recombinant adenovirus expression vector is successfully constructed and screened.The gene expression of IL-6R can be highly inhibited after acute spinal cord injury.

Objective To clone and express Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) heat shock protein 60 (hsp60) gene. Methods The hsp60 gene fragment was amplified from Ct chromosomal DNA by PCR. After purification and digestion with enzymes Sal I and Not I , the hsp60 gene fragment was inserted into the compatible site of prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a. The constructed recombinant plasmid was identified by PCR, restriction enzyme cleavage and sequencing, then, it was transfected into an expression strain Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The expression of fusion protein was induced by isopropy-β-D- thiogalactoside (IPTG) in the host bacteria, and the expressed product was identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electropheresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western-blot. Results PCR and restriction enzymes cleavage analysis confirmed that the hsp60 gene was successfully cloned into the recombinant plasmid. DNA sequencing showed that the sequence of cloned gene was fully consistent with the published sequence in Genebank. As revealed by SDS-PAGE, the size of expressed fusion protein approximated 60 kilodaltons, and Western-blot confirmed the expressed product to be the expected protein. The final concentration of fusion protein was 17.85 mg/L with a purity of more than 90%. Conclusions A recombinant expression plasmid pET-28a-hsp60 is successfully constructed in this study, and soluble hsp60 protein is expressed by the recombinant plasmid-transfected E. coli.
