3.Chitinase Gene Overexpression of Chaetomium cupreum in Pichia pastoris by Multi-site Mutations
Microbiology 2008;0(10):-
By using gene SOEing PCR, Arg (CGC) in the expression fragment of chitinase gene (chi58) from Chaetomium cupreum was mutated synonymously to Arg (AGA), which is a bias code of Pichia pas-toris yeast. The expression plasmid pPIC9K-chi58A was constructed and transformed into GS115 strain through electroporation. The chitinase activity reached 101.71 U/mL?3.33 U/mL after induced with 120 h, which was the 3 fold of the original strain (31.83 U/mL?4.85 U/mL). Additionally, recombinant yeast showed good genetic stability after 10 cycle. SDS-PAGE analysis suggested that the weight of protein was 58 kD.

To analyze the specific mechanism of Jinxueyuan granules, the relationship between the Jinxueyuan granules increased the saliva secretion of xerostomia model SD rats and excitement of receptors were studied in this experiment. In the study, three groups of xerostomia model rats were successfully established by using M-receptor blockers-4-diphenyl-acetoxy-N-methyl-piperidine (4-DAMP) and atropine, or adrenergic receptor blocker phentolamine; after the modeling, the medicine Jinxueyuan granules were gavaged. According to the clinical dose of Jinxueyuan granules and SD rats body surface area, the rats in atropine group were divided three dose groups respectively, namely low, medium and high dose of Jinxueyuan granules groups. The 4-DAMP group and phentolamine group were gavaged medium dose of Jinxueyuan granules. And the amount of salivary secretion for 150 minutes in all groups continuously were measured, and the effect of Jinxueyuan granules increased salivation and the relationship between characteristics and the receptors were observed; and submandibular gland tissue of the rats was isolated, then the effect of Jinxueyuan Granules for expression of the water channel protein aquaporin-5 (AQP5) in submandibular gland cells was analyzed by the Western blot technology. It was found that the saliva secretion of Jinxueyuan Granules groups was increased significantly, and compared with the saline control group, phentolamine group, 4-DAMP group and atropine group, difference was significant, P < 0.05. There was no significant difference between the low-dose of Jinxueyuan granules group and the saline group, but the medium dose of Jinxueyuan granules group had a significant difference, compared with the saline group (P < 0.05). In the time distribution of increasing saliva secretion, there was a significant difference between the saline and Jinxueyuan granules group in the saliva secretion (P < 0.05). After administration of Jinxueyuan granules, the expression of AQP5 protein in the submandibular gland cells expressing of treatment groups was increased, and compared with the blocker groups, there was a significant difference, P < 0.05. Except the atropine group, there was no significant difference in Jinxueyuan granules relieving the inhibition induced by blocks in phentolamine group and 4-DAMP group, compared with the saline group. Compared the AQP5 expression in three blockers groups, there was no significant difference in the efficacy of Jinxueyuan granules between phentolamine group and 4-DAMP group; but there was a significant difference between the atropine group and other groups (P < 0.05). Therefore, it was considered that the mechanism of Jinxueyuan granules increasing saliva secretion (effectiveness of nourishing Yin and generating body fluid ) possibly through the pathway mediated by muscarinic M receptor, especially M3 receptor, or adrenergic receptor, and increased expression of salivary gland AQP5 membrane, and then stimulate saliva production.

Medical Solace Words are a kind of working language used by medical staff who tend to offer solace and encouragement to patients on purpose of medical treatment,and it is a kind of oral language frequently applied by medical staff in the new medical mode.Medical solace aims at decreasing and eliminating patients' negative emotions and improving their mood so as to establish a harmonious relationship between doctors and patients,and make the treatment smooth as well.This article analyzes medical solace words from the perspective of linguistic pragmatics,revealing that for the concealment and complexity of the expressing context for medical words,and the unique programmatic rules of medical language,medical staff should pay much attention to the language hierarchy and grasp the explanatory principle and the guiding principle of medical solace language to achieve the targeted effects of medical solace.

Basic biochemical index were measured weekly in hyperuricemia rats.Real-time quantitative PCR technology was employed to measure glucose transporter-4 (GLUT-4),insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1,and IRS-2 mRNA expression in the skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.The gene expression of GLUT-4 and IRS-2 are significantly lower in the last weeks of the hyperuricemia rat.Insulin resistance caused by hyperuricemia is probably related to the lowering expression levels of GLUT-4 and IRS-2 mRNA in the target tissues.

Objective To study the biological effects of nucleic transcript factor NF-?B/RelB gene silencing on bone marrow derived dendritic cells(BMDCs).Methods For constructing a new type of DCs,RNAi RelB DC,mouse BMDCs were cultured through IL-4 and GM-CSF cytokine inducing system and were purified with CD11c positive immunomicrobeads by flow cytometer,and RelB gene was silenced with PCR expression cassettes.The RelB RNA interference effect in DCs was proved at both mRNA and protein levels.The biological characteristics of RNAi RelB DCs were investigated by means of cell morphology,cell surface markers and mixed lymphocyte reaction ability.The cell microstructure was observed using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.The cell surface markers,such as MHC-Ⅱ,CD86 and CD40,were detected by flow cytometer.The mixed lymphocyte reaction ability,as well as the ability of DCs in stimulating allogeneic T cells proliferation,was detected by 3H-TdR incorporation method.Results RNAi RelB DCs seemed to have fewer and shorter spikes and many folds under scanning electron microscopy.Many phagocytic vacuoles were observed in the cytoplasm under transmission electron microscopy.DCs surface molecules,MHC-Ⅱ,CD86 and CD40,were expressed at a relatively lower level compared with the control DCs.This RNAi RelB DCs also showed weak allogeneic T cells stimulating ability in vitro in MLR.Conclusion The dendritic cells derived from bone marrow are characterized the biological features and immunological function of immature DC with silencing of RelB gene.This kind of RNAi RelB DCs may be used to induce immunotolerance as a novel tolerogenic DCs.

To investigate the neuroprotective of ligustilide (LIG) against glutamate-induced apoptosis of PC12 cells, cell viability were examined by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was applied to assay cell apoptosis rate. Intracellular calcium concentration was measured by using fluorescent dye Fluo-3/AM. Cytochrome C (Cyt C), Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 protein expression were assayed by western blot. The results showed that glutamate is cytotoxic with an inhibitory concentration 50 (ID50) of 15 mmol · L(-1). Pretreatment with LIG (1, 5, 15 μmol · L(-1)) significantly improved cell viability. The apoptosis rate in glutamate-induced PC12 cells was 13.39%, and decreased in the presence of LIG (1, 5, 15 μmol · L(-1)) by 9.06%, 6.48%, 3.82%, separately. Extracellular accumulation of Ca2+ induced by glutamate were significantly reduced by LIG. The results of western blot manifested that pretreatment LIG could decrease the release of Cyt C from mitochondria, down-regulate Caspase-3 protein expression and up-regulate Bcl-2/Bax ratio, thereby protects PC12 cells from apoptosis. In summary, LIG had protective effect on glutamate-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells through attenuating the increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration, and inhibiting the release of Cyt C from mitochondria to cytoplasm.
