With the rapidly development of the biotechnology industry,large quantities of recombinant proteins are needed for specific therapeutic and diagnostic applications.Bacterial cells are most often used for the production of recombinant proteins.However,recombinant proteins expressed in the cytoplasm of bacteria are often misfolded as insoluble inclusion bodies and therefore inactive.To circumvent this problem,several eukaryotic expression systems have also been developed over the years,ranging from yeast to mammalian cell-based technologies.For many mammalian proteins,especially those secreted and modified posttranslationally,a more compatible expression system is highly desirable because proper folding or modification can only be provided with closely related cells,i.e.,mammalian cells.Large scale transient transfection of mammalian cells is a recent and powerful technology for the fast production of milligram amounts of recombinant proteins.Transient expression by means of extrachromosomal replication in COS cells is frequently used to check the functional integrity of genes/plasmids and to produce small quantities of cell supernatants containing the protein of interest.As it is allowed for easy and efficient purification,many recombinant proteins used for therapeutic and structural studies are naturally secreted or engineered to be secreted.The use of a proper signal peptide is one of the major determinants for the efficient secretion of heterologous proteins from mammalian cells.The noncatalytic C-terminal hemopexin-like domain of MMP-2,PEX,can block angiogenesis and tumor growth in vivo.Large quantities of biochemically active recombinant PEX are required for the study of their functions and biochemical properties,as well as for their industrial applications.For this purpose,the rat growth hormone,mouse IgG? chain and MMP-9 signal peptides were used for expression of PEX in COS7 cells,and their secretion efficiencies were compared by Western blotting and ELISA.Western-blotting of PEX protein from culture media,resulted in detection of proteins with the predicted molecular mass,which indicate that all of the signal sequences could direct PEX secretion successfully.The MMP-9 signal peptide seems to be superior to the signal peptides from IgG and rGH both in terms of extracellular yield and in terms of secretion efficiency.Thus,expression of pM9PEX construct resulted in higher yields of extracellular PEX and the majority of the produced PEX was secreted and not trapped intracellularly.To examine whether the observed difference in secretion yields is promoted at the transcriptional level,a RT-PCR analysis was performed at 6 h after transfection.The presence of mRNA transcripts of PEX was observed in all the DNA constructs.Moreover,semiquantitative reverse transcription(RT-PCR)results show that there were no significant differences in the expression levels of PEX among the constructs at 6 h after transfection.Though there was no difference in the expression levels of PEX at an early time point after transfection,the presence of an ER-targeting signal peptide sequence in the expression vector affected the trafficking of expressed proteins in the cells.Hence,the described difference in exported yields is probably promoted at the secretion level,rather than at the transcriptional level.Chick chorioallantoic membrane(CAM)bioassay show that the PEX protein purified from cell culture had biological activity to inhibit the angiogenesis.The MMP-9's signal peptide is used for the first time as leader sequence for secretion of foreign proteins.The results revealed that higher amounts of secreted PEX were obtained when vectors containing MMP-9 signal peptide were used and it is also indicated that MMP-9 signal sequence could be effective on promoting the secretion of other heterologous proteins in eukaryotic cells.

Objective: To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of gallic acid(GA),methyl gal- late(MG)and ellagic acid(EA)in the residue of a gingival consolidation liquid(a mouth rinse preparation),and inves- tigate the effect of different residue-drying methods on the GA,MG and EA content in the residues. Methods: High per- formance liquid chromatography(HPLC)switching walvelength method was used to determine the GA,MG and EA con- tents. The column was Agilent Zorbax SB-C18(250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm). The mobile phase was methanol(A)-0.05% phosphoric acid aqueous solution(B)in a gradient elution. The detection wavelength was 272 nm for GA/MG and 255 nm for EA. The flow rate was 1 ml/min,and the injection volume was 3 μl. Meanwhile,the residues were dried with the methods of sun drying,blast drying,vacuum drying and microwave vacuum drying,respectively and the GA,MG and EA contents in the residues were determined by the established HPLC method. Results: The linear ranges for GA,MG and EA were 1.280-4.608(r=0.9998),0.560-2.016(r=0.9998),0.1145-0.4122 μg(r=0.9997),respectively. The aver- age recoveries for GA,MG and EA were 99.97%,99.93% and 100.20%,with the RSD of 0.34%,2.30% and 0.93%,re- spectively. The contents of GA,MG and EA varied in quite a large range in the residues dried by different methods. Con- clusion: The established method is fast,simple and practicable,which could be used for the determination of GA,MG and EA in the residue of a gingival consolidation liquid. The drying methods could significantly affect the contents of GA, MG and EA in the residues,and the related results provide a reference for future studies.

Objective To investigate the effect of peginterferon alfa-2a injection (PEG-IFNα-2a) combined with ribavirin (RBV) in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (1b) in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Methods The clinical data of patients with type 1b chronic hepatitis C in our hospital from May 2010 to October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the method of treatment, the patients were divided into IFNα-2a combined with RBV group and PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group. The rapid virologic response (RVR), early virologic response (EVR), and sustained virologic response (SVR) rate were observed in the two groups. The liver function, expressions of CD4+T and CD8+T cell of peripheral blood and the incidence of adverse reaction were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results The RVR, EVR, SVR of two groups was no significant difference (χ2=0.641, 0.946, 0.154, P=0.423, 0.331, 0.694). After treatment, the levels of ALT , AST, DBIL and TBIL in PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group were lower than those in IFNα-2a combined with RBV group (P<0.05). Of the PEG-IFNα-2a combined with RBV group, the CD4+T level was lower and the CD8+T level was higher than that in PEG-IFNα-2a in the combined Leigh Bhave Lin group were lower than that in the IFNα-2a level was lower IFNα-2a combined with RBV group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of influenza-like symptoms, marrow suppression, somnolence and abnormal laboratory indexes between two groups. Conclusion PEG-IFN alpha -2a combined with RBV has a good therapeutic effect on type 1b chronic hepatitis C virus, and has good safety and clinical application value.

Objective To study the characteristics of calcific valvular heart disease (CVHD) with the aid of echocardiography. Methods Nine thousand and seventeen patients over 50 year-old who had received transthoracic echocardiographic examination were enrolled in the study. Diagnosis of CVHD was made with 2 dimension, M-mode and color Doppler echocardiography. General state of health, clinical manifestation and history of CVHD patients were also analyzed. Results Five hundred and seventy-four cases of CVHD were diagnosed and the characteristics of CVHD were observed. The diagnostic rate increased as the age increased. There was no significant difference between male and female. The calcified regions were commoner in aortic valves than in mitral valves, more frequent in non-coronary valves than in right or left coronary valves, and more frequently seen at tips of aortic valves and annuli of mitral valves than in other parts. The size of calcific plaques was usually between 3 and 10mm. Hemodynamic changes could be found in some patients. History of hypertension, coronary artery disease, and arteriosclerosis of the aorta were often found in these patients. Conclusions Echocardiography can be used to evaluate the position of calcification, size of calcification area, and degree of valvular stenosis or insufficiency, thus offers useful information for early diagnosis and treatment, and prognosis of CVHD in clinic.
