Objective:To investigate the association between glutathione S-transferase pi (GSTP1) gene polymorphism and toxici-ties related to high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods:GSTP1 genotypes and allelic frequencies in 51 children with ALL were determined by Nest PCR, denaturing gel gradient electrophoresis (DGGE), and DNA sequencing. HD-MTX adverse reactions were analyzed using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCICTC). Results:We identified three SNPs of GSTP1, including rs1695 (A313G), rs1138272 (G439T), and rs4891 (T555C). The wild types, het-erozygous types, and homozygous types of GSTP1 rs1695/rs4891 polymorphisms were detected in 32 cases (62.7%), 16 cases (31.4%), and 3 cases (5.9%), respectively. GSTP1 rs1695/rs4891 polymorphisms included only one heterozygous type and one homozygous type. The allele frequencies of the three SNPs were 21.6%, 2.9%, and 21.6%. The AG+GG/TC+CC genotype of GSTP1 rs1695/rs4891 was associated with decrease in the odds of peripheral hemoglobin (OR=0.25, 95%CI=0.06-1.00, P=0.049). The AG+GG/TC+CC genotype of GSTP1 rs1695/rs4891 in standard and intermediate-risk ALL children was significantly correlated with higher odds of gastrointesti-nal toxicity (OR=0.125, 95%CI=0.02-0.78, P=0.026). Conclusion:GSTP1 rs1695 (A313G)/rs4891 (T555C) gene polymorphism is as-sociated with the reduction of peripheral hemoglobin in ALL children and with the odds of gastrointestinal toxicity in standard and inter-mediate-risk ALL children who receive high-dose methotrexate.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of SDF-1/CXCR4 in the development of chronic rejection (CR) in rat models.Methods CR rat models were established using Fisher 344 to Lewis rats.In the blank control group (n=10),Lewis rats getting isotransplantation were treated with Cyclosporine A.CR rat models were established in positive group (n=10) and the rats were treated with Cyclosporine A.CR rat models were also established in CXCR4 antagonism group (n=10) and the rats were treated with both Cyclosporine A and AMD3100 (1 mg/kg).The serum creatinine levels were monitored every week.Kidney grafts were harvested 12 weeks after transplantation for histological analysis.We evaluated graft injuries using chronic allograft damage index (CADI) scores.Q-PCR and Western blotting were used to measure CXCR4,TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression in renal allograft tissues.Results The serum creatinine levels in blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group were significantly lower than those in positive control group (P<0.05).The blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group presented milder pathological manifestations of CR.The CADI score in CXCR4 antagonism group was 3.54,which was lower than that of positive control group (P<0.05).The expression of biological markers in TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway and SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway was significantly lower in blank control group and CXCR4 antagonism group than in positive control group (P<0.05).Conclusion SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway may play a crucial role in the development of CR.The usage of SDF-1/CXCR4 antagonist can protect renal allograft by inhibiting the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway.Therefore,antagonism of CXCR4 may provide a novel way to prevent the development of CR.

Objective: To identify the active ingredients, potential targets, and mechanism of Rhizoma coptidis by bioinformatics method, and to explore the hypoglycemic effect of Rhizoma coptidis by in vitro experiments. Methods: The chemical components of Rhizoma coptidis were collected through database search, and oral bioavailability and drug-likeness were used for preliminary screening. The targets of Rhizoma coptidis and diabetes-related targets were collected by database retrieval and reverse docking techniques, and the biological process of cross-set proteins was analyzed. The inhibitory effects of Rhizoma coptidis on α-glucosidase, α-amylase activity, and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) were determined via in vitro experiments. In addition, the effects of Rhizoma coptidis on pre-adipocyte differentiation, absorption of glucose by adipocytes, and the level of intracellular triglyceride were investigated using the adipocyte differentiation model. Results: There were 11 potentially active ingredients in Rhizoma coptidis. IL-6, caspase-3, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), MYC, and estrogen receptor 1 were considered as the key genes. The bioinformatics analysis showed that Rhizoma coptidis played an anti-diabetic role mainly via biological processes and signaling pathways including hormone receptor activity, glutathione binding, steroid binding, etc. In vitro experiments showed that the extract of Rhizoma coptidis inhibited the activities of α-glucosidase and α-amylase, and the generation of AGEs; meanwhile, the extract promoted the absorption of glucose by adipocytes. In addition, the extract of Rhizoma coptidis decreased triglyceride level. Conclusions: Our network pharmacology and in vitro experiments demonstrate the anti-diabetic effects and possible underlying mechanisms of Rhizoma coptidis extract.

A flavivirus, Culex flavivirus, was first isolated from Chinese mosquitoes with high sequences similarities to those of flaviviruses found in America and Japan. In this study, a total of 48 pools of field-collected mosquitoes were sampled from Dandong of Liaoning Province, China during July to September of 2011. Six isolated viruses showing cytopathic effect (CPE) in C6/C36 cells were tested by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)using Flavivirus genus--specific primers and Culex flavivirus-specific primers and the positive PCR-product was sequenced and compared with the sequences of 10 isolates from GenBank. Phylogenetic tree of NS5 and enevelop genes of flavivirus were constructed. The GenBank accession numbers of NS5 gene were JQ409188, JQ409186, JQ409187, JQ409191, JQ409189 and JQ409190. The GenBank accession numbers of envelope gene were JQ065883, JQ065882, JQ065881, JQ065879,JQ065877 and JQ065878.

Objective To study the interactions between the highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 nucleoprotein (H5N1 NP) and NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK),and to reveal the effect of H5N1 NP on NIK-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity.Methods The gene encoding NIK protein was amplified by RT-PCR from total RNA of HeLa cell line.Eukaryotic expression plasmid pCMV-Myc-NIK and prokaryotic expression plasmid pGEX-4T-1-NP (GST-NP) were constructed by cloning from HeLa cell cDNA and pcDNA3-Flag-NP vector,respectively.Co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) and GST pull-down were used to test the interactions between H5N1 NP and NIK.Dual-luciferase reporter gene analysis system was used to test the effect of H5N1 NP on NIK-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity.Results Co-IP and GST pull-down showed that pCMV-Myc-NIK and pGEX-4T-1-NP (GST-NP) could express Myc tagged NIK protein and GST tagged NP protein in HEK293T cells and E.coli,respectively,and that H5N1 NP was associated with NIK in vivo and in vitro.Dual-luciferase reporter gene analysis suggested that H5N1 could inhibit NIK-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity.Conclusion H5N1 NP interacts with NIK and inhibits NIK-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity.This finding can facilitate further study of H5N1.

OBJECTIVETo observe the injury on micro-skin induced by a self designed micro-skin machine.
METHODSMicro-skin was produced either with the machine or by hand. Cells at the edge of micro-skin were observed by transmission electron microscope. succinic dehydrogenase activity in supernatant of cultivated cells was analyzed, and the cell proliferation of micro-skin was assessed by (3)H-TdR. Twenty patients were enrolled in the study for the observation of the wound healing time between the two groups of micro-skin after being grafted.
RESULTSTransmission electron microscope examination revealed that the cellular injury at the edge of the micro-skin in machine-made group was mild compared with that in man-made group. (3)H-TdR rate was elevated but the activity of succinic dehydrogenase in the supernatant of cultured cells decreased in supernatant of cultured cells of machine produced micro-skin. Wound healing time was shortened in machine made group. (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe cellular injury at the edge of micro-skin in the machine made group was mild when compared with that in the man-made group with cell proliferation accelerated and wound healing time shortened.
