Objective: To construct a lentiviral vector of RNA interference(RNAi) of TGF-?1 gene. Methods: Three target sequences were selected according to TGF?1 mRNA sequence firstly,then three pairs of oligonucleotide sequences according to these target sequences and one pair of negative control oligonucleotide sequence were designed and synthesized. The annealed oligonucleotide fragments were subcloned into pRNA-U6/Lenti plasmid. After identified by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing ,these plasmids were cotransfected along with ViraPowerTM Lentiviral Packaging Mix into 293FT cells for the package of lentiviral particles. Then the lentiviral vector particles were transfected into Hela cells and TGF-?1 expression in the transfected cells was assayed by Real-Time PCR and ELISA. Results: It was confirmed by digestion and sequencing that lentiviral vectors had the correct structure and could express high titer of virus. After transfected into Hela cells,TGF-?1 expression was decreased significantly by two of these lentiviral vectors at both the protein and mRNA level and the first vector had the best interefence efficiency. Conclusion: The lentivirus RNAi vector of TGF-?1 was constructed successfully.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of osteoprotegerin on apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) induced by triiodothyronine(T3) with different concentrations.Methods HUVECs were cultured in control group (0 nmol/L T3),low-concentration group (0.1 nmol/L T3),physiologicalconcentration group(1 nmol/L T3),high-concentration group(10 nmol/L T3) with OPG for 48 h.The cell apoptosis was measured by cytometry and Hoechst 33258.The expressions of p-IκKβ,lκKβ,p-TSC2,TSC2,p-S6K,S6K,p-AKT,AKT,Bcl-2,and Bax were analyzed by Western blot.Results (1) After OPG pretreatment and being cultured in control group、low-concentration group and high-concentration group,the HUVEC apoptosis was decreased significantly(P＜0.05) as compared with groups without OPG pretreatment.There was no difference in physiological concentration group before and after intervention of OPG.(2) The expression of p-IκKβ,p-S6K,and Bax in other groups were higher than those in physiological concentration group ; however,the expressions of p-TSC2,p-AKT,and Bcl-2 were lower than those in physiological concentration group(P＜0.05).After OPG pretreatment in control group,low-concentration group,and high-concentration group,the expressions of p-IκKβ,p-S6K,and Bax decreased significantly (P＜0.05)and the expression of p-TSC2,p-AKT,and Bcl-2 increased significantly (P＜ 0.05) ; there were no differences in the expressions of p-IκKβ,p-S6K,p-TSC2,p-AKT,Bcl-2,and Bax in physiological concentration group before and after intervention of OPG.Conclusions Low and high concentrations of T3 increase apoptosis of HUVECs by way of activation of IκKβ/mTOR pathway.Osteoprotegerin is able to protect HUVECs from apoptosis induced by low and high concentration of T3 via the way of inhibiting the IκKβ/mTOR pathway.

Even though chemistry is now in place that potentially allows high coupling efficiencies to be attained, successful coupling is usually a challenge when so-called "difficult sequences" is encountered in peptide synthesis. Some factors that affect the coupling efficiency have been discussed and related methods to overcome those obstacles have been introduced in present review. All suggestions proposed here are valuable and also feasible to improve the coupling completeness in both liquid-phase or solid-phase peptide synthesis.

Objective To summarize the strategies of nutritional support for patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP). Methods The clinical data of six HLAP patients who were treated in our department from January 1998 to December 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. Results The disease conditions of all patients were improved after fasting and early nutritional support and lipid-lowering treatment. Three cases with severe HLAP received enteral nutrition via a nasojejunal tube. Another three patients with milder HLAP obtained low-fat diet and orally administered lipid-lowering drugs. The plasma triglyceride levels decreased from (25.30 ± 20. 48 ) mmol/L to (5.41 ±4.55) mmol/L. No relapse was noted during follow-up (range: 3 -24 months). Conclusions The approaches of nutritional support for HLAP patients should be customized based on the specific disease conditions,and the enteral nutrition and lipid-lowering drugs should be reasonably and carefully designed and applied. For severe HLAP, nasojejunal tube should be maintained in the early stage to ensure the application of enteral nutrition and lipid-lowering drugs, protect the integrity of gut mucosal barrier, and decrease the fluctuation of blood glucose.
