Objective To investigate the effect of fluoride on expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats. Methods Fourteen SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group(tap water with fluoride < 0.06 mg/L), and fluorosis group(fluoride 50 mg/L in water). After 4 moths, expressions of both mRNA and protein of Runx2 in rat bone tissue were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results The results showed that the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in fluoride-treated bone tissue were 2.287 ± 0.261 and 0.929 ± 0.229, respectively, both of which were significantly higher than those of control group(0.995 ± 0.123,0.317 ± 0.068, t = 11.85,6.78, P < 0.05). Conclusions Fluoride can increase the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats, and Runx2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of bone injury caused by fluoride.
5.The in vitro HAART pharmacodynamics study with dolutegravir as the "anchor".
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2015;50(1):50-58
This study is to evaluate the HAART pharmacodynamics with dolutegravir as the "anchor" in vitro. A nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) resistant recombinant virus model (VSVG/HIV-1(RT-D67N,K70R,T215F)) and an integrase inhibitors (INIs) resistant recombinant virus model (VSVG/HIV-1(IN-G140S,QI48H)) were constructed and established. The anti-viral pharmacodynamics was evaluated with drug combinations including two NRTIs along with one INI or one NNRTI. The results showed that the combination with an INI gave a stronger synergism on wild type HIV-1 replication comparing to that with an NNRTI. Comparing the two INIs as the "anchor" for HAART, DTG exhibited an equivalent CI to that of RAL on wild type HIV-1 replication; but a greater synergy than RAL on INI-resistant HIV-1 replication. Besides of the pharmacodynamics results of DTG-based drug combination, the results may contribute to clinical antiviral therapy.

Objective To observe the changes of pulmonary oxidative stress after cigarette smoking exposure,its re-lationship with inflammatory cytokines,and the effects of smoking cessation. Methods Fifty male BALB / c mice were randomly divided into the smoke exposure group,smoke cessation group,and the controls. Mice in smoke cessation group were exposed to cigarette smoking for 16 weeks. On 4,8,and 12 week after smoking cessation mice were executed and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)and lung tissue were collected. The morphologi-cal alternations of lung tissue were observed. Mean length of interval and mean alveolar number were measured. Total cell numbers in BALF were counted. Superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity was measured with hydroxylamine method,malondialdehyde(MDA)level was measured with TBA method. The levels of pulmonary interleukin-8 (IL-8)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in BALF and lung tissue homogenate were measured with ELISA. Re-sults Compared with the mice in the controls,emphysematous changes were remarkable in the lung of cigarette ex-posed mice,the total cell numbers in BALF were increased significantly(P < 0. 05)and reduced gradually after smoking cessation(P < 0. 05). SOD and MDA levels increased remarkably in the cigarette exposure group(P <0. 05),and declined gradually after smoking cessation. The levels of IL-8 and TNF-α in BALF and lung tissue ho-mogenate in the smoke exposure group increased significantly( P < 0. 05),and lowered time-dependently after smoking cessation,but not reached to normal level even 12 weeks after smoking cessation. SOD and MDA levels were positively correlated with the cytokine changes. Conclusion Abnormal oxidative stress in the airways caused by cigarette smoking exposure was merely partially reversed after smoking cessation. And the inflammation remains persistent concomitantly.

Objective To investigate the effect and its mechanism of cyclin dependent protein kinase inhibitor Olomoucine treatment on experimental herpes simplex encephalitis(HSE). Methods 45 mice were randomly assigned to HSV-1 sham-infected group (n=15), HSV-1 infected control group (n=15) and Olomoucine treated group (n=15). Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of brain cells surface antigen CD11b. The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to detect the expression of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6). TUNEL method was adopted to detect neural cells apoptosis. Pathologic slices of brain tissues were used to identify tissue morphology differences. The survival rates were compared between the treatment groups Acyclovir (n=20) and Olomoucine (n=20) by the method of Kaplan-Meier 2 weeks after HSV-1 infection. Results After HSV-1 infection, the expression of brain tissue CD11b, TNF-?, IL-6 were significantly increased compared with sham-infected group (allP
