Objective To observe the suppression of special shRNA producing plasmid to hepatitis B virus(HBV) S gene and C gene on HBV replication and expression in HepG2.2.15 cells.Methods pSilenceCircle-U6 including pol Ⅲ promoter was used to construct HBV special shRNA producing plasmid as SC-S and SC-C.The experimental groups included SC-S group,SC-C group,unrelated control SC-N group and blank control group.With different dosages and at different time,shRNA producing plasmid was transfected into HepG2.2.15 cells.HBeAg and HBsAg in the culture media was detected by ELISA assay and HBV DNA in the culture media was measured by dot blotting assay. Results The recombinant shRNA producing plasmid with target sequence was constructed successfully.The inhibitory rates of HBeAg and HBsAg expressions by SC-S were much higher than those by SC-C.The inhibitory effects of HBeAg and HBsAg expressions were increased when the dose of SC-S was greater.The inhibitory effects of HBeAg and HBsAg expressions by SC-S were significant on the 3rd day after transfection and the inhibitory effect was the strongest on the 6th day.The inhibitory rate was still higher on the 9th day after transfection.Dot blotting assay showed the inhibitory effect of HBV replication by SC-S was greater than that by SC-C.Conclusion The shRNA producing plasmid with HBV S gene and C gene can be highly effective to inhibit the replication and expression of HBV.

Objective To study the effect of specific hammerhead ribozyme (Rz) to hepatitis C virus (HCV) in vitro. Methods Rz 1 Rz 2 were designed to cleavage at 5′-NCR nucleotide positions under 136~160 and 313~337, Rz 3 was designed to cleavage at C region nucleotide position under 373~388. As a control, cleavage deficient Rzm that have A→G point mutations in the catalytic loop of the hammerhead domain. 32P-labeled transcript of target HCV RNA was incubated with gel-purified Rz ( Rz 1, Rz 2, Rz 3 and Rzm ) respectively at different concentration based on specified condition and autoradiographed after denaturing gel-electrophoresis. Results Except Rzm, Rz 1 Rz 2 Rz 3 were active at 37 ℃ and more so at higher concentration, and more so with cleavage site nearly to the HCV initial code. Conclusions The HCV specific hammerhead ribozyme can be designed in vitro, further study about cleavage in vitro and in vivo will continue.

Objective To detect the transfusion transmitted virus-like mini virus(TLMV) sequence gene in patients with chronic hepatitis and to study the TLMV infection in population.Methods Two sets of primers in the most conservative regions of Japan strains TLMV-CBD279 and CBD231 were designed to amplify TLMV templete extracted from sera of patients with chronic hepatitis B using PCR.PCR products were cloned into pGEMR-T vector and sequenced.Results The results showed that 72%of TLMV sequence isolated in China was identical to that in Japan,suggesting that there was TLMV infection in patients with chronic hepatitis B in China.The patients with hepatitis virus C and the healthy blood donor had the highest infectious rates of TLMV.Conclusion TLMV infection exists in patients with chronic hepatitis B in China.

Objective To assess the effects of medicated permeation with traditional Chinese medicine Shujin-Zhitong liquid combined with ion tophoresis on osteoarthritis(OA) of rabbit knee joint in vivo.Methods The modified Hulth OA model was prepared with rabbits by anterior cruciate ligament desmotomy plus medial meniscus resection.Twenty-four model rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: Chinese medicine group: treated with Chinese medicine Shujin-Zhitong liquid by ion tophoresis for 20 minutes per day;positive control group: glucosamine hydrochloride was administered orally per day;blank control group: no treatment was administered to the model rabbits.Serum nitrogen monoxidum(NO) concentration was determined at the time points of prior model making,prior treatment,and 4 and 8 weeks of treatment.At 4 and 8 weeks of treatment,the apoptotic rate of chondrocytes was determined by flow cytometry,and the gene expressions of collagen Ⅱand aggrecan were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The contents of serum NO in Chinese medicine group and positive control group were lower than that in blank control group at 4 weeks after treatment,and the content of serum NO in Chinese medicine group was lower than those in positive control group and blank control group at 8 weeks after treatment.The apoptotic rates in Chinese medicine group and positive control group were lower than that in blank control group at 4 and 8 weeks after treatment.Gene expression levels of collagen Ⅱ and aggrecan in Chinese medicine group and positive control group were higher than that in blank control group at 4 weeks after treatment,while the gene expression level in Chinese medicine group was higher than those in positive and blank control groups at 8 weeks after treatment.Conclusions The treatment of medicated permeation with traditional Chinese medicine Shujin-Zhitong liquid combined with ion tophoresis has shown good therapeutic effect on osteoarthritis(OA) of rabbit knee joint,the mechanism might be the inhibition of chondrocytes apoptosis and reduced secretion of inflammatory factors,and the improvement of cartilage repair by up-regulating related gene expression of chondrocyte.
