Objective To analyze the direct interaction between mmu-miR-30b and mouse FoxO3 (mFoxO3) mRNA.Methods Three target gene fragments, which were respectively 402, 123 and 299 bp in length, were amplified from mouse cDNA by PCR using specific primers and site-direct mutant primers.A complete mutant fragment was obtained by joining together the 123 and 299 bp fragments.Recombinant plasmids, pmirGLO-mFoxO3 and pmirGLO-mFoxO3 mt, were constructed through inserting wild and mutant fragments of mFoxO3 into pmirGLO vector, respectively.HEK 293T cells were respectively co-transfected with the constructed recombinant plasmids and mmu-miR-30b/mmu-miR-30b inhibitor.Dual-luciferase reporter assay system was used to determine the Firefly-Renilla luciferase activity in different groups.Western blot assay was performed to evaluate the regulatory effect of mmu-miR-30b on mFoxO3 expression.ResultsRestriction enzyme analysis and gene sequencing showed that the two recombinant plasmids, pmirGLO-mFoxO3 and pmirGLO-mFoxO3 mt, were constructed successfully.The activity of Firefly-Renilla luciferase in HEK 293T cells transfected with pmirGLO, pmirGLO+mmu-miR-30b, pmirGLO+mmu-miR-30b inhibitor, pmirGLO-mFoxO3+mmu-miR-30b, pmirGLO-mFoxO3+mmu-miR-30b+mmu-miR-30b inhibitor, or pmirGLO-mFoxO3 mt+mmu-miR-30b was 13.18±0.97, 14.35±0.99, 12.46±1.20, 9.55±1.11, 13.71±0.89 and 10.99±0.92, respectively.Compared with pmirGLO+mmu-miR-30b group, the luciferase activity was significantly decreased in pmirGLO-mFoxO3+mmu-miR-30b group (P<0.05), but showed no significant change in pmirGLO-mFoxO3 mt+mmu-miR-30b group (P>0.05).In addition, the suppressed Firefly-Renilla luciferase activity in pmirGLO-mFoxO3+mmu-miR-30b group was restored by mmu-miR-30b inhibitor treatment (P<0.05).Enhancing the expression of mmu-miR-30b could markedly inhibit the expression of mFoxO3 at protien level (P<0.05), and that could be significantly attenuated by mmu-miR-30b inhibitor treatmeat (P<0.05).Conclusion mFoxO3 mRNA is a novel target gene of mmu-miR-30b.There is a direct interaction between mmu-miR-30b and mFoxO3 mRNA.

Objective: To establish an anti-tumor drug sensitivity test by micocapsulated tumor cells in vivo and in vitro.Methods: Alginate-polylysine-alginate(APA) microcapsule technique was used to encapsulate tongue cancer Tca8113 cells. MTT method was used to detect the cytotoxic effect of methotrexate(MTX)and fluorouracil (FU) on encapsulated cells, then IC 50 was calculated. Encapsulated cells were also seeded into the abdominal cavities of adult Kunming mice and FU was injected through tail vein. After two weeks, microcapsules were recollected and histological examination was performed . Results: Encapsulated tumor cells derived from tongue could survive and proliferate in clusters. MTX and FU inhibited the cell growth in a dose-dependant way. IC 50 of MTX and FU was 200 ?mol/L and 0.85 mg/ml respectively. Necrosis of the cells in microcapsules and fibrotic encapsulation of microcapsules were observed in the in vivo tests. There was no significant difference between treatment group and control group. Conclusion: Microcapsulted tumor cells may be used in the anti-tumor drugs sensitive experiment in vitro.

Human bocavirus (HBoV) 1-4 have been detected both in respiratory and stool samples since the first HBoV was discovered in 2005. HBoV-1 is mostly associated with respiratory infection, while HBoV 2-4 are usually associated with intestinal tract infection. A variety of signs and symptoms have been described in patients with HBoV infection, including cough, wheezing, pneumonia, and diarrhea, but the research on pathogenic mechanism of HBoV is limited because HBoV cannot be cultured in vitro due to the lack of appropriate host cells. Three-dimensional epithelial cell culture, reverse genetics, and viral metagenomics are identified as novel tools that may promote the research on pathogenic mechanism of HBoV and the discovery of new viruses. This review summaries currently available diagnostic approaches such as electron microscopy, cell culture, PCR, and immunoassay in order to provide a method reference for indepth research on HBoV.

Objective To investigate the clinical and endoscopical features of patients suffered from Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP). Methods Retrospective analysis of the clinical manifestation in 197 purpura patients, of which 81 cases were HSP, and described the endoscopic features of 19 cases who underwent gastroscopy and/or colonoscopy. The specimens from 15 cases were evaluated histopathologically. Results Eighty-one patients were diagnosed as HSP, 51 (63. 0% ) of them had a history of upper respiratory tract infection 1 -3 weeks before, taking antibiotics or animal protein prior to the onset of the illness. In 21 patients, abdominal symptoms presented firstly, which occurred 1 -40 days prior to the appearance of skin rashes. Seventy- four (91. 4% ) patients experienced abdominal pain, 37(45. 7% ) patients had digestive tract bleeding. Endoscopic features included diffused congestive edema of gastrointestinal mucosa, widespread hemorrhagic spots, erythema, erosion and ulceration. Lesions were relatively severer in small intestine than those in large intestine. Histological manifestations showed massive neutrophilic infiltration in mucosa and submucosa, fibrotic necrosis of small vessels, focal bleeding, erosion and ulceration. There was prominent accordance in the extents of endoscopic and pathologic manifestation with the severity of gastrointestinal symptoms. Conclusions Forty one percent of purpura patients presented as HSP, of them 26% had the abdominal symptoms firstly. Small bowel lesions were severer than those of stomach or colon. The typical features of the illness and endoscopic findings are very helpful to the early diagnosis of HSP.

Objective To investigate the change and clinical significance of serum hepcidin,serum ferritin (SF),transferrin re-ceptor (sTfR)and serum iron (SI)in patients in type 2 diabetes(T2DM).Methods 130 patients with T2DM were divided into 2 groups according to the 24 hour urine microalbumin (mAlb)quantitative:group A for trace microalbumin group 45 ca-ses (mAlb30~300 mg/24 h),group B for normal albuminuria group of 85 cases,an alternate period of 45 cases of healthy physical examination for group C (control group).Results Serum hepcidin and SF of group A (42.27±32.12 ng/ml,211.6 ±107.2 ng/ml)were significantly higher than those in group B (26.12 ± 18.36 ng/ml,179.1 ± 109.7 ng/ml)and the healthy control group (P <0.05),hepcidin and SF of group B was significantly higher than that of the control group (9.47 ±1.65 ng/ml,84.41±47.10 ng/ml,P <0.01),SI and transferrin receptor(sTfR)has no statistical significance between the three groups (P >0.05).Correlation analysis showed that patients with type 2 diabetes hepcidin was positively related with SF (P <0.05),hepcidin and sTfR,SI had no significant correlation.Conclusion These results indicated that there existed serum hepcidin and SF increased iron overload and iron metabolism disorder in type 2 diabetes.Therefore,detection of serum iron and SF can be used as a predictor of diabetes early renal damage.
