Journal of International Oncology 2017;44(5):380-382
Epigenetics consists of DNA methylation,post-translational modification of histon,microRNA and long non-coding RNA,which regulate angiogenesis by acting on different targets.Epigenetics has become potential targets of anti-angiogenesis in tumor.

The clinical effect in the two groups were compared. Results The total effective rate was 95.95% (71/74) in the experimental group while 79.73%(59/74) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant between the two groups(P<0.05); Compared with before treatment, FEV1, FVC, VC and other indicators after treatment were significantly improved, and the experimental group improved significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Doxofylline and budesonide combined with psychological intervention on the treatment of the patients with bronchial asthma has obvious curative effect, which can effectively improve the lung function, accelerate the symptoms disappeared time, and worthy of clinical application.

Ten compounds were isolated from the artificially induced dragon's blood of Dracaena cambodiana by various column chromatographies on silica and sephadex LH-20 gel. Based on spectral analysis of NMR and MS, their structures were identified as 3, 4-dihydroxyallylbenzene (1), 3', 4', 5'-trimethoxycinnamylalcohol (2), pinoresinol (3), (2R)-7, 4'-dihydroxy-8-methylflavane (4), (2R)-7,4'-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-8-methylflavane(5),(2S)-7,3'-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-8-methylflavane(6) ,(2S)-4',7-dihydroxy-6, 8-dimethylflavane(7), 4,2',4'-trihydroxychalcone(8), 4,4'-dihydroxy-2-methoxydihydrochalcon(9) and Cambodianin E (10). Antibacterial activity assay showed that compounds 1, 4 and 10 have inhibitory effect on Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cuben, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum and Ralstonia solanacearum.

To improve the yield of industrial fermentation, a method based on near infrared spectroscopy was presented to predict the growth of yeast.The spectral data of fermentation sample were measured by Fourier-transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometer in the process of yeast culture.Each spectrum was acquired over the range of 10000-4000 cm1.Meanwhile, the optical density (OD) of fermentation sample was determined with photoelectric turbidity method.After that, a method based on competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) was used to select characteristic wavelength variables of NIR data, and then extreme learning machine (ELM) algorithm was employed to develop the categorization model about the four growth processes of yeast.Experimental result showed that, only 30 characteristic wavelength variables of NIR data were selected by CRAS algorithms, and the prediction accuracies of training set and test set of the CARS-ELM model were 98.68% and 97.37%, respectively.The research showed that the near infrared spectrum analysis technology was feasible to predict the growth process of yeast.

BACKGROUND: It is a new tendency to treat central nervous system injury or tumor therapy using the combination of seed cells and gene therapy.OBJECTIVE: To observe the dose-relationship between transfection and expression of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSCs) with adenovirus vector carrying green fluorescent protein (Ad-GFP), and to study its effects on cell biological properties, in addition, to explore the feasibility of using Ad-GFP vector to construct gene modified BMSCs.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized grouping, contrast observation. The experiment was performed at the Southern Medical University between August 2008 and March 2009.MATERIALS: New Zealand white rabbits, irrespective of genders, weighing 2.0-3.0 kg, were selected.METHODS: BMSCs were separated and cultured in vitro, and then the cell immunophenotypes were detected by flow cytometry.The adenovirus was obtained by packaging 293 cells and was used to transfect BMSCs with various liters (1 ×-10~3-1×10~(10) PFU/mL).Cytometry was used to analyze the transfection efficiency.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell morphological changes were detected under an invert microscope. The cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 kits. BMSCs transfected with Ad-GFP were induced differentiating into neuron-like cells by adding of β-mercaptoethanol.RESULTS: The surface markers of 3-6-generation BMSCs were negative to CD34 and CD45, but positive for CD29 and CD44.When the virus titers were 1 ×10~7 PFU/mL, the transfection rate was 55%, which were 85% when the virus titers were 1 ×10~9 and1×10~(10) PFU/mL. However, cell pathology phenomenon occurred when the virus titer was 1 ×10~(10) PFU/mL. The fluorescence was strongest expressed at day 7, and it still can be seen at day 28. The BMSCs trasfected with Ad-GFP could differentiate into neuron-like cells under induction of p-mercaptoethanol, with positive neuron-specific enolase.CONCLUSION: Ad-GFP with suitable titers can infect BMSCs effectively with little influence on the biology property or differentiation function. BMSCs can serve as seeds cell in gene therapy field when utilizing ad-GFP vector system.
