Objective To investigate the intervention effect of ketogenic diet (KD) on neurobehavioral demages after flurothyl-induced recurrent neonatal seizures in rats and on the expression of ApoE.Methods Postnatal day 8 (P8) SD rats (quantity:48) were randomly divided into two groups:the non-seizure group (NS group,n =24) and the recurrent-seizure group (RS group,n =24).From P9,rats in RS group were subjected to recurrent seizures induced by volatile flurothyl 30 min each day for consecutive 8 days.While rats in NS group were placed into the container for an equal amount of time to their counterpart without exposuring to flurothyl.At P28,each group was divided into two groups again:non-seizure and normal diet group(NS + ND group,n =12),non-seizure and ketogenic diet group(NS + KD group,n =12),recurrent-seizure and normal diet group (RS + ND group,n =12),recurrent-seizure and ketogenic diet group(RS + KD group,n =12).At P42,neurodevelopmental indicators were monitored.ApoE protein levels in cerebral cortex were determined by western blot at P58.Results Neurodevelopmental indicators were analyzed at P42:in the plane righting experiment,the rats of group NS + ND (1.0 ±0.14) about the time of plane righting was significant different comparing with group RS + ND ((0.75 ±0.32) s) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between group RS + KD and group RS + ND about the time of plane righting(P＞ 0.05).In the negative geotaxis reaction experiment,the rats of groups NS + KD and RS + ND((3.17 ± 0.58)s,(6.75 ± 0.75)s) about the time of negative geotaxis reaction were significant different comparing with group NS + ND ((1.58 ±0.52)s) (P＜0.05).Compared with group RS + ND,the group RS + KD in the time of negative geotaxis reaction was obviously shortened (P ＜ 0.05).In the cliff avoidance test,there were significant differences between group NS + ND、RS + KD ((5.75 ± 2.90) s,(9.50 ± 4.36) s) and group RS + ND ((14.00 ± 4.79) s) about the time of cliff avoidance (P ＜ 0.05).In western blot,the expression of ApoE in cerebral cortex in the RS + ND group (1.26 ± 0.30) was obviously increased compared with group NS + ND (0.78 ±0.12) (P＜0.05),and there had also significant difference between group RS + KD (0.89 ±0.10) and group RS + ND (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The neuroprotective effects of ketogenic diet on recurrent neonatal seizure-induced neurobehavioral demages may be associated with the reduction of ApoE in cerebral cortex.

Objective To identify hepatitis B virus X-interactive proteins by comparative proteomics method and to understand the molecular mechanism of HBx in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE)was used to separate the total proteins of HBx-transfected human hepatoma cell lines HepG2-Px and its parental cell lines HepG2-P_0.PDQuest software was applied to analyze 2 DE images.The differentially expressed protein spots between the two cell lines were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorptionionization time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS)and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry(ESI-Q-TOF).Then,the differential expression levels of some identified proteins were determined by Western blot.The data were compared using t test.Results The well-resolved,reproducible 2-DE patterns of HepG2-Px and HepG2-P_0 total proteins were established.A total of 32 differential proteins were identified in HepG2-Px cell,including 25 up-regulated proteins,such as heat shock protein(HSP)90AB1,Bcl-2 associated athanogene(BAG)-2,nucleophosmin(B23),chloride intracellular channel(CLIC)-1,matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-3,melanoma antigen(MAGE)-12,and 7 down-regulated proteins,such as Wnt-5a.The differential expression levels of some proteins between the two cell lines were confirmed by Western blot analysis.Conclusions Most of the identified proteins are involved in many processes,such as transcription,signal transduction,cell proliferation,cell cycle regulator,apoptosis,DNA repair,metabolisms and immunity.These differential proteins may play a role in tumor genesis and HC development.The data are valuable for further study on the role of HBx in human hepatocellular carcinoma.

In this study, ITS2 barcode was used to identify Bupleurum chinense and B. longiradiatum. The ITS2 regions of 48 samples were amplified and sequenced. The sequences obtained above were aligned and the K2P distances were calculated. We used three methods, BLAST1, nearest distance and phylogenetic tree (NJ-tree), to test the identification ability. The results showed that the maximum intraspecific genetic distance of B. chinense was 0.013, and the minimum interspecific genetic distance between B. chinense and B. longiradiatum was 0.049. The NJ-tree can easily identify B. chinense and B. longiradiatum. Therefore, the ITS2 barcode is suitable to identify B. chinense and B. longiradiatum.

Objective To explore the role of the DACT2 gene in the occurrence and development of renal cell carcinoma(RCC).Methods The samples of RCC tissues and corresponding tumor-adjacent tissues after radical operation and normal kidney tissues were collected.The methylation specific PCR (MSP) and real time fluorescence reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR) methods were adopted to detect the methylation status and mRNA expression of DACT2.The streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) method labeled by immunohistochemistry peroxidase was used to examine the expression of β-catenin protein.Then the relationship between DACT2 gene methylation status and mRNA expression with the clinicopathologic characteristics was analyzed.The relationship between DACT2 gene methylation with mRNA and β-catenin expression was analysed,as well.Results The DACT2 mRNA relative expression level in RCC tissues was 0.427±0.025,which was significantly lower than (0.801±0.047) in tumor-adjacent tissues and (0.872±0.022) in normal tissue,the positive rate of DACT2 gene methylation in RCC tissues was 45.76%,which was significantly higher than 6.78% in tumor-adjacent tissues and 5.08% in normal tissues,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05),while the difference between tumor-adjacent tissues and normal tissues had no statistical significance (P>0.05).The DACT2 gene mRNA expression level in RCC tissues and promoter area methylation occurrence rate had no obvious correlation with the clinical data such as patients age,gender,tumor size,clinical stage and Fuhrman grade (P>0.05).The DACT2 gene mRNA relative level in the methylation group was lower than that in the non-methylation group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The expression rate of β-catenin protein in cytoplasma in RCC tissues was higher than that in the tumor-adjacent tissues and normal tissues,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05),moreover,DACT2 gen methylation had a positive correlation with β-catenin protein expression (r=0.324,P=0.012).Conclusion The decrease of DACT2 gene promoter area methylation and mRNA relative expression level may participate in the RCC occurrence,but has no relationship with RCC clinical progression.Methylation occurred in DACT2 gene promoter area may be one of reasons causing mRNA relative expression decrase.DACT2 gene methylation occurrence in RCC tissue might be related to the high expression of β-catenin.
