OBJECTIVETo study the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype and its relation to clinical degree and responsiveness to antiviral therapy on hepatitis in order to guide the clinical therapy.
METHODSWe amplified HBV S gene by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), using the second-round PCR product, which was digested by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). This genotype method was designed under the analysis of the restriction fragment length polymorphism and using the restriction enzymes that identified the genotype-specific sequences. Five restriction enzymes, Hph I , Nci I , Alw I, Ear I and NlaIV, were identified in genotype-specific RFLP from the S gene region. Representative sequences from the S genome region of each HBV genotype were aligned to show the restriction sites by the five restriction enzymes. The amplified S gene nucleotide sequences were sequenced by dideoxy-chain-termination method and the corresponding amino acid sequence was deduced using DNASIS software. Later, they were genotyped by comparing to representative S gene sequences obtained from GenBank. This confirmed the results of RFLP HBV genotyping methods, coincident with that of S gene sequence.
RESULTSGenotypes A, B, C, D were classified in 216 patients with HBV and DNA positive. The results showed that: 1 case (0.46%) of genotype A, 19 cases genotype B (8.8% ), 175 genotype C (81.02%) and 21 genotype D (9.72%). A total of 86 patients in the hospital were divided into either genotype C cases (69) or non-genotype C cases (17).
CONCLUSIONGenotype C was the major genotype in Changchun. Among HBV patients, type C was 80.95%, followed by genotypes B and D. Both hepatocellular carcinoma and liver cirrhosis showed relations with genotype C.

To establish an HPLC-MS/MS method for the analysis of quercetin, kaempferid and isorhamnetin in rats plasma and study its pharmamacokinetics after an intragastrical administration of Hippophae rhamnoides extracts. Five healthy male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were given single doses of H. rhamnoides extracts (quercetin 26.35 mg x kg(-1), kaempferid 4.040 mg x kg(-1), isorhamnetin 31.37 mg x kg(-1)), and then their orbital sinus blood samples were collected at different time points. The drug plasma concentration of the three flavonoids was determined by HPLC-MS/MS method. After that, the main pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated by using Kinetica 5. 0. 11 software. The methodological test showed that the linear concentration ranges of quercetin, kaempferid and isorhamnetin were 7.500-600.0 μg x L(-1) (R2 = 0.998 5), 1.000-80.00 μg x L(-1) (R2 = 0.998 5 ) and 10.00-800.0 μg x L(-1) (R2 = 0.998 0), respectively. The inner and inter-days precisions were both less than 14.0%. The plasma samples showed a good stability and consistency with the requirement of biological sample analysis after the samples were frozen once and placed at - 20 degrees C for 15 d and room temperature for 6 h and the treated analytes were placed at -20 degrees C for 24 h. For quercetin, the pharmacokinetic parameter t(½β), AUC(0-∞), MRT(0.∞), C.(max) and T(max) were (113.3 ± 19.37) min, (12 542.14 ± 3 504.05) μg x h x L(-1), (119.6 ± 13.29) h, (164.6 ± 27.33) μg x L(-1) and (5.199 ± 0.840 3) h, respectively. For kaempferid, the pharmacokinetic parameters t(½β), AUC(0-t), MRT(0-∞), C(max) and T(max) were (79.85 ± 17.15) min, (934.51 ± 94.59) μg x h x L(-1), (81.50 ± 13.75) h, (80.15 ± 14.24) μg x L(-1) and (3.827 ± 0.902 7) h, respectively. For isorhamnetin, the pharmacokinetic parameters t1,2,, AUC(0-t), MRT(0-∞), C(max) and T(max) were (118.3 ± 20.73) min, (26 067.77 ± 4 124.60) μg x h x L(-1), (129.0 ± 16.30) h, (269.6 ± 29.32) μg x L(-1) and (6.513 ± 1.450) h, respectively. The HPLC-MS/MS analysis method established in this study was proved to be sensitive and accurate and could be applied in the pharmacokinetic study of quercetin, kaempferid and isorhamnetin in rat plasma.

To explore one-step method for the preparation of Ganoderma lucidum multicomponent microemulsion, according to the dissolution characteristics of triterpenes and polysaccharides in Ganoderma lucidum, formulation of the microemulsion was optimized. The optimal blank microemulsion was used as a solvent to sonicate the Ganoderma lucidum powder to prepare the multicomponent microemulsion, besides, its physicochemical properties were compared with the microemulsion made by conventional method. The results showed that the multicomponent microemulsion was characterized as (43.32 +/- 6.82) nm in size, 0.173 +/- 0.025 in polydispersity index (PDI) and -(3.98 +/- 0.82) mV in zeta potential. The contents of Ganoderma lucidum triterpenes and polysaccharides were (5.95 +/- 0.32) and (7.58 +/- 0.44) mg x mL(-1), respectively. Sonicating Ganoderma lucidum powder by blank microemulsion could prepare the multicomponent microemulsion. Compared with the conventional method, this method is simple and low cost, which is suitable for industrial production.

Objective RNPC1 may act as an oncogene or suppressor gene in human tumors and its role in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains unclear.The objective of this study was to investigate the role of RNPC1 in the development of RCC.Methods Over-expression of RNPC1 gene group (RNPC1 group) and short hairpin RNA interfering RNPC1 gene expression (shRNPC1 group) were respectively built in RCC CAKI-1 and CAKI-2.The blank control group (NC group) and negative control group (SCR group) were built as well.The qRT-PCR and western blot (WB) were used to detect the expression levels of RNPC1 mRNA and RNPC1 protein in RCC cells.Lentivirus infection was applied to establish stable expressed RCC cell lines of RNPC1 over-expression and interference.Detection was made on mRNA and protein expression levels in RNPC1 stable RCC cell lines.The effects of RNPC1 on cell proliferation, colony formation assay, migration, and invasion were detected by CCK-8 cell differentiation test, clone test, scratch test, and migration and invasion test.WB was applied to detect the change of protein expression in the EMT path of RNPC1 stable RCC cell lines and explore the molecular mechanism of RNPC1 effect on the biological function of RCC cells.Results The expression levels of RNPC1 mRNA and protein were found lower in shRNPC1 group than those in SCR group, while the expression levels of RNPC1 mRNA and protein in SCR group were higher than those NC group (P<0.05).The capability of proliferation in shRNPC1 group was stronger than that in SCR group, while the capability of proliferation in shRNPC1 group was weaker than that in NC group (P<0.05).The capabilities of cell migration and invasion were stronger in shRNPC1 group than those in SCR group, while the capabilities of cell migration and invasion in RNPC1 group were weaker than those in NC group (P<0.05).RNPC1 could inhibit the proliferation capability of RCC cells and might up-regulate the protein expression of E-cadherin and down-regulate the protein expression of β-catenin and vimentin, thus inhibiting EMT path and the capabilities of migration and invasion off RCC cells (P<0.05).Conclusion RNPC1 acts as a tumor suppressor in RCC and has the potential for the prediction of RCC prognosis.

10. Nanodrug delivery systems based on drug-phospholipid complex: Research advances
Journal of International Pharmaceutical Research 2017;44(1):40-46
Phospholipids are the major components of the biomembrane. Combining the phospholipids and the drugs to form drug-phospholipid complex can improve the solubility, stability and bioavailability of the drugs. On this basis, the nanodrug delivery system, which is constructed with the drug- phospholipid complex as an intermediate carrier, has become a research hot spot in the field of pharmaceutics. This kind of nanodrug delivery system can not only improve the solubility, stability and bioavailability of drugs, but also carry out the targeted drug delivery, decrease the drug dose and reduce the side effects, thereby it is very promising. In this review, we describe the structural composition, characteristics, forming mechanism of the drug-phospholipid complex and the research progresses in a variety of nanodrug delivery systems based on drug-phospholipid complex.
