Aim To investigate the effects of indole-selenium on mice's immunological liver injury.Methods The model of immunological liver injury in mice was prepared. The activities of alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were assayed by spectrophotometry; the levels of nitric oxide(NO) in serum were assayed by Griess method; tumour necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) activity was determined by ridio immunoassay method and the level of interleukin-1(IL-1) was assayed by MTT dye reduction. Results Indole-selenium (5, 10, 20 mg?kg~(-1)) significantly decreased serum transaminase (ALT, AST) levels,attenuated the area and extent of necrosis and reduced the infiltration of inflammatory cells. Furthermore, indole-selenium significantly lowered the increased TNF-? and NO levels in serum and inhibited the production of TNF-? and IL-1 by peritoneal macrophages. Conclusion Indole-selenium possesses amelioration effect on pathology of immunological liver injury in mice,which was related directly with inhibiting the production of TNF-? and NO levels in serum, decreasing the production of TNF-? and IL-1 by peritoneal macrophages.

AIM To investigate the effect of hydroxyl camptothecinum(HCPT) on pharmocokinetics of cyclosprine A(CsA) and the membrane lipid fluidity (LFU)of red cell in rabbits. METHODS The whole blood concentration of CsA in rabbits was monitored using method of FPIA. The LFU of red cell was measured using method of DPH fluorescence polarization technique. RESULTS The pharmocokinetic parameters of CsA in group CsA+HCPT such as a,V(c),K12 and CL(s) were significantly lower and T1/2(a) was significantly higher (P<0.05) than in group CsA. The concentration of CsA of group CsA+HCPT was higher after injection 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 h, but have significantly high at 1.0 h point (P<0.05). After injection 0.5,1.0, 1.5 h the LFU of red cell in group CsA+HCPT was higher than in group CsA (P<0.05). The LFU in group CsA was lower that in control at 0.5,1.0 and 1.5 h point (P<0.05). CONCLUSION HCPT can enhance the whole blood concentration of CsA in rabbits. CsA administrated with HCPT is feasible.

Abstract: In recent years, the HIV prevention intervention strategy has had a positive effect on reducing the HIV infection prevalence in China. HIV non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis (nPEP) has become an effective measure to prevent HIV for men who have sex with men (MSM) exposed to possible risks. From the perspective of the "knowledge, attitude, and practice" theory, domestic and overseas scholars used outpatient data and questionnaires to investigate the awareness, attitude, usage, medication, follow-up, and drug prescription of HIV nPEP among MSM in China. This article reviewed the above-mentioned and found that the overall awareness rate of HIV nPEP among MSM in China is high with a positive attitude, but the actual utilization rate is very low. On a regional level, their follow-up after the medication is not ideal despite good medication. Drug prescription varies between different regions domestically. The prescription rate of tenofovir + emtricitabine + raltegravir is the highest, followed by the prescription rate of tenofovir + emtricitabine + dolutegravir, and tenofovir + lamivudine + dolutegravir. In the future, researchers should expand the number of study objects and the scope of the research sites in China, analyze the "knowledge, attitude, and practice" of HIV nPEP, medication follow-up, and medication prescription among MSM, and increase the research on HIV nPEP service areas to provide the reference for further formulating and refining the comprehensive HIV prevention intervention strategy among MSM in China.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics characteristic of electroencephalogram (EEG) under three states (eyes closed, mental arithmetic with eyes closed and orientation test with eyes closed), and the application of non-linear dynamic analysis for cognitive function research.MethodsEEG was recorded in 30 healthy young volunteers at three stages. The correlation dimension (D2) and approximate entropy (ApEn) were calculated for all subjects.ResultsD2 and ApEn increased significantly during mental tasks as compared to the rest state with eyes closed (P<0.01). In different mental tasks, the complexity of mental functions and the regions involved in the cognitive task were different.ConclusionNon-linear analysis methods are appropriate for the study of cognitive functions and can help to understand the working mechanism of brain during mental activities.

Objective To establish a technical route for the efficient expression and purification of PprI protein from Deinococcus radiodurans R1 by using eukaryotic Pichia pastoris.Methods The encoding sequence of the Deinococcus radiodurans pprI gene was modified according to the preference of Pichia pastoris' codon.Modified pprI gene was fully synthesized with PCR and a 6 × His tag was added at its Nterminal.The PCR products were purified and then cloned into Pichia pastoris expression vector pHBM-905A.After utilizing Cop I and Not I double enzyme digestion and retrievering linear objective fragment,new pprI gene was transformed to the GS115 strain of Pichia pastoris.The obtained Pichia pastoris transformants were induced to express.Culture supernatants were detected by SDS-PAGE,Western blot,and mass spectrometry.A Ni-NTA column was uesd to purify the target protein and the BCA method was used to determine protein concentration.Results The coding sequence of new synthetic Deinococcus radiodurans pprI gene was correct.The purpose protein band of a molecular weight of 43 000 was detected in the culture supernatant of transformed Pichia pastoris strains by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.The mass spectrometry confirmed that it was the Deinococcus radiodurans PprI protein.When the concentration of imidazole was 250 mmol/L,the elution rate of PprI protein was the highest.The purified protein concentration was 0.35 mg/ml measured by BCA method.Conclusions This study has successfully constructed a new pprI gene and the recombinant strain of Pichia pastoris secreting PprI protein,and established a technical route for the efficient expression and purification of PprI protein.

Objective To study the expression of PI3K and Akt mRNA in acute leukemia(AL) and chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) and try to find out a relationship between the prognostic significance of acute leukemia and the expression level of PI3K and Akt. Methods The samples were collected from 63 ALpatients, 7 relapsed AL patients, 14 CML patients and 10 AL patients in complete remission(CR) patients, 11samples of normal controls(NC). The expression of PI3K, Akt mRNA were measured by semi-quantity reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results The expression of PI3K mRNA in AL and relapse group were significantly higher than that in normal control. In CML, the P13K mRNA expression level was higher than that in NC and CR. The similar results of the expression of Akt mRNA were observed in CML, NC and CR. At the same time, the expression level of Akt mRNA in relapse group was significantly higher than that in NC. The complete remission rate in PI3K (+) was lower than that in PI3K (-). Similar result was obtained in Akt (+) and Akt (-). Conclusion The PI3K/Akt pathway may contribute to the occurrence of leukemia. The patients with positive expression of the members of this pathway had a lower remission rate.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics,therapy and prognosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).Methods Forty-three PCNSL patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results The most frequent PCNSL clinical presentations were an increased intracranial pressure, focal neurologic deficits.The median survival time of patients was 18.0 months (14.2—21.8 months,95% CI).Cox regression model analysis revealed that ependymal and leptomeningeal involvement was the only independent factor for overall survival (P=0.002).Conclusions PCNSL is a aggressive disease with a poor prognosis and difficult to diagnose before operation.The optimal treatment modality for newly diagnosed PCNSL is still under investigation.
