A large number of studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs (IncRNAs) display abnormallity in organisms exposed to toxic chemicals,carcinogens and heavy metals.In this paper,the relationships between IncRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs),the expressions of IncRNAs in organisms exposed to different exogenous toxic chemicals and the related toxicological mechanism are reviewed in order to provide reference for biological monitoring with IncRNAs in environmental toxicology.

Objective To investigate the anti-fibrosis effect of a 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO)specific inhibitor AA-861 on liver fibrosis. Methods Liver fibrosis was induced in male Sprague Dawley rats by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride(CCI4).AA-861(0.2 mg/100 g/d)was administrated by intraperitoneal injection starting 2 days before the first dosage of CCI4 and rats were killed at weeks 2,4,and 6.Liver specimens were obtained from each animal and fixed with 4%formaldehyde for histological analysis. The Mrna expression of 5-LO,smooth muscle-alpha(α-SMA),Collagen-1,matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2)and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1),the protein expression of 5-LO were evaluated by real time PCR and Western blot respectively. Histological analysis was performed by microscopy observation. Fibrosis conditions in rat liver in each group were evaluated according to the semi-quantitative scoring system (SSS), Hyp in rat livers and the hepatic functional biochemistry were also detected. Results Along with the aggravation of liver fibrosis, the gene expression of 5-Lo,α-SMA,Collagen-1,MMP-2 and TIMP-1 increased gradually, and the level of ALT, TBA, Hyp and SSS score also increased gradually. With the administration of AA-861,the Mrna expression of 5-LO,α-SMA,Collagen-1,MMP-2,TIMP-1 and the protein expression of 5-LO decreased remarkably, and the reduction in TIMP-1 Mrna expression was more significant than that in MMP-2.Six weeks after AA-861 treatment, the level of ALT, TBA, Hyp and SSS score were also decreased significantly. Conclusion AA-861 ameliorates CCI4 induced rat liver fibrosis by inhibiting the 5-LO pathway and decreasing the expression of 5-LO,α-SMA,Collagen-1,MMP-2 and TIMP-1.

Objective To evaluate the effects of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene transfer on intrahepatic vascular resistance (IHVR) and portal venous pressure (PVP) in cirrhotic rats. Methods (1) 5 days after eNOS gene transfer, the in situ liver perfusion system (ISLP) was prepared and in different groups of controls and eNOS treated rats, the followings were analyzed: portal perfusion pressure (PP) dose-response curve to norepinephrine (NE); the effects on PP caused by specific nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor N-monomethyl-L- arginine (L-NMMA) or the nitric oxide (NO) synthesis substrate L-arginine (L-Arg). (2) The experiment of perfusion via portal vein in vivo was performed and the effects of L-NMMA on the PVP was observed. Results (1) In ISLP model, after L-NMMA was added into the perfusate of the control rats, PP dose-respose to NE increased remarkably and the peak of PP increased to (26.7?0.9) mm?Hg. The increased PP response to NE caused by L-NMMA was offsetted by L-Arg and the peak of PP decreased to (23.2?0.9) mm?Hg. In eNOS treated rats, PP response to NE was significantly lower than that in controls (P

Objective To construct short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression plasmids against the inhibitor of differentiation 2 (Id2) gene and establish a suitable cell model for the role of Id2 in proliferation and differentiation of human Ewing sarcoma cell.Methods Three shRNA sequences targeting Id2 gene were designed and inserted into the pGPU6/GFP/Neo (-shRNA-Id2) expression vectors.The recombinant pGPU6/GFP/Neo-shRNA-Id2 plasmids were introduced into Ewing sarcoma RD-ES cells by liposome-mediated transfection.The knock-down efficiency of Id2 in infected RD-ES cells was verified by Western blot assay.The cell growth and cell cycle changes were evaluated by cell counting and flow cytometry between transfected cells and control cells.Results The Id2 expression decreased 54 ％ and 57 ％,respectively,in RD-ES cell line which were transfected with the shRNA-Id2-543 and shRNA-Id2-593 plasmids compared with the control group cells by Western blot analysis.The cell growth assay demonstrated that the cell number in transfected cells was significantly decreased during 6-7 d compared with the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The cells at the S-phase of cell cycle were increased [(36.60±1.53) ％ and (44.89E2.46) ％ vs (29.73±2.03) ％,P ＜ 0.05],and no significant changes at the G2 phase or even reduction in the transfected cells.Conclusions Id2 stable knock-down cell lines are successfully established.The reduced expression of Id2 is related with decreased cell growth and cell cycle arrest in the S-phase.Id2 maybe plays an important role in proliferation of Ewing sarcoma cell.

Objective To observe the effects of cystamine, a tissue transglutaminase (tTG) inhibitor, on the development of rat liver fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride. Methods One hundred male SD rats were randomly divided into control group (n=20), hepatic fibrosis group (n=40) and cystamine group (n=40) . Liver fibrosis model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride. Cystamine (112 mg·kg-1·d-1) was administered by intraperitoneal injection 2 days before injection of carbon tetrachloride. The rats were sacrificed at weeks 4 and 8, and the liver tissues and serum specimens were obtained. The mRNA expression of tTG, smooth muscle-alpha (α-SMA), collagen-Ⅰ and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were detected by real time PCR. The protein expression of tTG and α-SMA, liver function and content of hydroxyproline in liver tissues were determined by Western blot. Histological changes of the liver was observed under microscope. The fibrosis conditions of rat liver in each group were evaluated according to the semi-quantita-tive scoring system. All the data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA. Results Eight weeks after the injection of carbon tetrachloride, obvious injury of the liver in liver fibrosis group was observed. The levels of alanine trans-aminase (ALT), total bile acid, total bilirubin, hydroxyproline, tTG, α-SMA, collagen-Ⅰ and TIMP-1 were (1313±157)U/L, (99.9±18.5)μmol/L, (10.9±1.6)μmoL/L, (55±12)μg/g, 145.6±51.2, 130.3±44.6, 211.3±75.1 and 162.4±53.5. After administration of cystamine, the levels of ALT, total bile acid, total bilirubin, hydroxyproline, tTG, α-SMA, collagen-Ⅰ and TIMP-1 were (378±87) U/L, (61.0±12.7) μmol/L, (9.8±1.7) μmol/L, (70±14 ) μg/g, 48.6±12.3, 40.7±12.3, 63.9±16.0, 59.2μ23.4. Conclusion Cystamine can alleviate the carbon tetrachloride-induced rat liver fibrosis by inhibiting the tTG pathway.

Objective To develop a method for rapid and accurate detection and identification of bacterial pathogens directly from body fluid specimens and to evaluate its application in clinical laboratory.Methods Bacteria DNA was extracted from 205 body fluid specimens with column-based kit,and the high variable V1 and V3 regions of bacterial 16S rRNA gene were amplified with broad-range primers.Amplicons were analyzed by pyrosequencing and the generated sequences were searched in the bacterial identification database.Traditional culture-biochemical method was also used for these specimens and the results were taken as the golden standard.SPSS 11.0 was used to calculate the sensitivity,specificity,false positive/negative rate,positive/negative predictive value and positive/negative likelihood rate of pyrosequencing method.Results The positive rate of bacteria culture was 39.5％ (81/205),among which 71 were infected with single bacterium,and 10 were infected with two species of bacteria.Compared with the culture identification results,pyrosequencing had a 100.0％ (71/71) concordance when applied to detect and identify bacterial pathogens from specimens with single specie bacterium infected.To specimens with two species bacteria infected,7 out of 10 specimens were in concordance with the culture identification results.Besides,pyrosequencing detected 10 positive specimens and identified bacterial pathogens infected in the 124 culture-negative specimens.Taken bacteria culture as the standard method,the sensitivity of pyrosequencing for identifying bacterial pathogen in body fluid was 100.0％,and with a specificity of 91.9％,the false positive rate was 8.1％,the false negative rate was 0.0％,the positive predictive value was 89.0％,the negative predictive value was 100.0％,and the positive and the negative likelihood rate were 12.4 and 0,respectively.Conclusion Pyrosequencing can be used to detect and identify bacterial pathogens directly from body fluid specimens with the advantages of rapidity,high sensitivity,high accuracy and high throughput.

Aim To determine the effects of high-fat meal and ABCB1 C3435 T polymorphism on the phar-macokinetics of nifedipine in the healthy Chinese sub-jects. Methods A total of 90 unrelated healthy Han subjects were divided into two groups:fasting group ( n=45 ) and high-fat meal group ( n=45 ) and then they received a single oral dose of 90 mg extended release tablet. Multiple blood samples were collected after 48 h, and the plasma concentrations of nifedipine were determined by high performance liquid chromatogra-phy- mass spectrometry ( LC-MS ) . PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism ( RFLP ) analysis was performed to detect the C3435 T polymorphism in AB-CB1 gene. Results The numbers of individuals carry-ing C/C, C/T and T/T genotypes in fasting group were 13, 24 and 8, respectively. The mean area under the curve ( AUC0-∞) in subjects carrying T/T genotype distinctly increased by 46. 34% compared with subjects with C/C genotype, but there was no statistically sig-nificant difference (P=0. 066). In addition, pharma-cokinetic parameters including Tpeak, Cmax and AUC0-48 had statistically significant differences between fasting group and high-fat meal group ( all P<0. 05 ) . Con-clution High-fat meal can speed the absorption and increase the extent of nifedipine absorption; ABCB1 C3435 T polymorphism almost does not affect the phar-macokinetics of nifedipine.

Escherichia coli AFP111 is a spontaneous mutant with mutations in the glucose specific phosphotransferase system (ptsG) in NZN111 (delta pflAB deltaldhA). In AFP111, conversion of xylose to succinic acid generates 1.67 molecule of ATP per xylose. However, the strain needs 2.67 molecule ATP for xylose metabolism. Therefore, AFP111 cannot use xylose due to insufficient ATP under anaerobic condition. Through an atmospheric and room temperature plasma (ARTP) jet, we got a mutant strain named DC111 that could use xylose under anaerobic condition in M9 medium to produce succinic acid. After 72 h, DC111 consumed 10.52 g/L xylose to produce 6.46 g/L succinic acid, and the yield was 0.78 mol/mol. Furthermore, the reaction catalyzed by the ATP-generating PEP-carboxykinase (PCK) was enhanced. The specific activity of PCK was 19.33-fold higher in DC111 than that in AFP111, which made the strain have enough ATP to converse xylose to succinic acid.
