Objective To assess the effects of hepatitis B virus(HBV) large envelope protein (LHB) on the apoptosis of HepG2 cells and explore the possible mechanism by proteomic approaches.Methods LHB gene was cloned into pShuttle-IRES-hrGFP-1,and the recombinant adenovirus either barboring LHB(Ad-LHB) or empty vector(Ad-GFP) were separately generated.Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit,JC-1 mitochondrial membrane potential assay kit and propidium iodide(PI) staining kit were employed combined with flow cytometry to detect the apoptotic cells infected with Ad-LHB or control of Ad-GFP.The cellular proteins were collected after infection of HepG2 cells by Ad-LHBs or Ad-GFP,and a total of 600 μg proteins were submitted to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE) and stained with R350.The gel images were captured by ImageScanner Ⅱ Imaging System,the differentially expressed proteins were identified by ImageMaster 2D Platinum analysis software and picked up by Ettan Spot Picker.After enzyme digestion,the protein samples were analyzed by MALDI-TOF-TOF MS.Results HepG2 cells infected with Ad-LHB were much more prone to apoptosis.There were thirty nine differentially expressed proteins were determined by 2-DE between HepG2 cells infected with Ad-LHB and Ad-GFP,and they were identified ultimately and categorized into thirty three kinds of proteins by MALDI-TOF-TOF MS.Among these proteins,nine were found to be closely related to cell apoptosis,in which CAPN2,eIF3K and PPP2CB were higher expressed in Ad-LHB infected HepG2 cells,and SERPINH1,LASP1,PRDX1,DHRS2,LDHA and PS-MA4 were lower expressed in Ad-LHB infected HepG2 cells.Conclusion LHB could induce apoptosis of HepG2 cells,and several apoptosis-related proteins participated in this process.

BACKGROUND: Magnesium alloy studies in orthopedic field have been carried out,and good biocompatibility has been reported.However magnesium alloys have not yet been researched in the intestine.OBJECTIVE: The biodegradable magnesium-zinc alloy samples are implanted around the rat cecum to investigate the biocompatibility in rat.METHODS: Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into magnesium alloy group,medical titanium group and the sham-operated group.Then magnesium-zinc alloy samples with the dimension of 5 mm × 1 mm× 1 mm were embedded in the cecum incision in the magnesium alloy group.The medical titanium was embedded in the medical titanium group,and just suture in the sham-operated group.Prior to surgery and at 7,14,21 and 28 days after operation,the serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase,creatinine and magnesium ion concentration were examined in each group.X-ray film on implanted region.The pathological changes in liver,kidney and cecum were examined.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There were no significant differences in serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase,creatinine and magnesium ion concentrations among each group(P > 0.05).Magnesium-zinc alloy degraded gradually during 28 days.The pathology of liver,kidney and cecum was normal.Results suggested that magnesium-zinc alloy had no obvious effect on the cecum.The degradation time to play a fixed function of time was longer than the intestinal healing time,with good biocompatibility.Magnesium-zinc alloy can be used as anastomotic nail for stomach intestine anastomat.

Objective To investigate the effects of caveolin-1 overexpressing on the growth of cervical squamous cell cancer Hela cell line. Methods Eukaryotic expression vector of human caveolin-1 gene was introduced into Hela cells by Lipofectamine. The clones stably overexpressed caveolin-1 were identiffed by RT-PCR, immunofluorescence cell staining techniques and Westernblotting. Cells proliferation viabihty was tested by MTT assay, and flow cytometry was used to assay the cell cycle and apoptosis, and the relative phosphorylation level of extracellular regulated protein kinases (Erk1/2) were detected by Westernblotting. Results The clones stably overexpressed caveolin-1 were obtained. Compared with the parental Hela cells, the tranfected cells exhibited a slower rate of growth. FAGS analysis results revealed that overexpression of caveolin-1 resulted in the cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 [ ( 68. 04 ± 2. 57 ) % vs ( 53.41 ±1.01)%] phase and increased the apoptotic cell fraction[ (19. 18 ±2.20)% vs (5.63 ±0.55)%, P <0. 05 ]. Western blotting results showed that overexpression of caveolin-1 reduced the phosphorylation of Erk1/2(0.28 ±0.05 vs 0.81 ±0.07, P <0.05). Conclusions Overexpression of caveolin-1 suppressed the growth of Hela cells and induced apoptosis, down-regulation of Erk1/2 phosphorylation might be involved in its mechanism.

Objective To investigate the application effect of evidence-based nursing and individual nurs-ing in pregnancy patients with lupus nephritis. Methods Sixty-five patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group. They were treated with routine care and evidence-based nursing respectively. The complications, pregnancy outcome and satisfaction of patients were compared between the two groups. Results There were not significant difference in renal failure , pregnancy induced hypertension , ecalampsia , heart failure , HELLP syndrome and other complications between observation group and normal group (P > 0.05). The pregnan-cy outcome had no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05). In observation group, the health score was significantly higher than that of control group(P < 0.05). The mental health score in control group was sig-nificantly higher than that of observation group (P < 0.05). There werenot significant difference in social health and overall health score between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The application of evidence-based nursing and individual nursing in pregnancy patients with LN not only reduce the incidence of complications , but also reduce the chance of premature birth, stillbirth. And it could improve the cognition on the nursing work of this disease and the satisfaction of patients. But individual nursing is better in improving the patient′s mental health, while the evidence-based nursing is better in improving the health status.
