In order to identify Aucklandiae Radix, Vladimiriae Radix, Inulae Radix, Aristolochiae Radix and Kadsurae Radix using ITS2 barcodes, genomic DNA from sixty samples was extracted and the ITS2 (internal transcribed spacer) regions were amplified and sequenced. The genetic distances were computed using MEGA 5.0 in accordance with the kimura 2-parameter (K2P) model and the neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree was constructed. The results indicated that for Aucklandiae Radix (Aucklandia lappa), Vladimiriae Radix (Vladimiria souliei and V. souliei var. cinerea), Inulae Radix (Inula helenium), Aristolochiae Radix (Aristolochia debilis) and Kadsurae Radix (Kadsura longipedunculata), the intra-specific variation was smaller than inter-specific one. There are 162 variable sites among 272 bp after alignment of all ITS2 sequence haplotypes. For each species, the intra-specific genetic distances were also smaller than inter-specific one. Furthermore, the NJ tree strongly supported that Aucklandiae Radix, Vladimiriae Radix, Inulae Radix, Aristolochiae Radix and Kadsurae Radix can be differentiated. At the same time, V. souliei (Dolomiaea souliei) and V. souliei var. cinerea( D. souliei var. cinerea) belonging to Vladimiriae Radix were clearly identified. In conclusion, ITS2 barcode could be used to identify Aucklandiae Radix, Vladimiriae Radix, Inulae Radix, Aristolochiae Radix and Kadsurae Radix. Our study may provide a scientific foundation for clinical safe use of the traditional Chinese medicines.

BACKGROUND:Placenta is a valuable source of mesenchymal stem cels for stem cel therapy and future application in the field of regenerative medicine. However, conventional methods cannot acquire a large amount of purified human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels. Here, we present a new method for isolating human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels suitable for banking strategies and for future clinical applications. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biological characteristics of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels cultured by tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion. METHODS: Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels were obtained from human placenta by tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion method. Immunophenotype was analyzed by flow cytometry. Growth curve was determined by MTT assay, and differentiation ability was evaluated byin vitro adipogenic, osteogenic and chondrogenic induction as wel. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels could be passaged stablyin vitro. Furthermore, the cels expressed CD73, CD90, CD105, but were negative for the markers of CD11b, CD19, CD34, CD45, and HLA-DR. Human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels proliferated actively and began to grow logarithmicaly at days 3-5 folowed by a plateau period at day 6. In addition, the isolated cels could be induced into adipocytes, osteocytes, chondrocytesin vitro. In a word, the results of this study demonstrated that the tissue dissociating and colagenase digestion method is an efficient method for obtaining a large amount of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cels that can be stably cultured in vitro and have strong proliferative ability.

Partial nature of "promoting blood circulation and dieresis" of Salvia Miltiorrhizain was initially demonstrated by investigating the regulation effect of AQP2 expression in kidney of trauma blood stasis model rats with the Salvia Miltiorrhizain so as to provide guidance for its clinical deployment of administration. Random allocation was taken to averagely divide 30 SD rats into two groups: 10 rats in normal group and 20 rats in blood stasis syndrome group. Trauma blood stasis rat model was established by quantitatively beating. Then the rat model group was divided into model group and salvia group. After 7 days of treatment, the rat kidney AQP2 expression was detected, the content of urine AQP2 was compared and the damaged local muscle and kidney pathological changes were observed by immunohistochemical method and western blot method. Compared with that of the normal group, rats in model group had inflammatory cells infiltration, blood stasis and edema of the injured local muscles and up-regulated AQP2 expression, decreasing urinary output, and kidney tissues blood stasis and edema (P < 0.05). On the other hand, compared with that of the model group, those parameters of rats in salvia group were all decreasing except urine output (P < 0.05). Such result indicated that Salvia Miltiorrhiza can reduce trauma blood stasis rat content of urine AQP2 and down-regulated AQP2 expression in kidney tissue, so as to reduce the reabsorption of water by renal tubular and increase urine output. The promoting blood circulation effect of Salvia Miltiorrhizain can alleviate the degree of the damaged tissue edema and encourage urine drainage. This therapy is closely related to the effect of regulating AQP2 in kidney by salvia, so the purpose of this study by verifying "promoting blood circulation and diuresis" as the mechanism for the regulation effect of the salvia on AQP2 expression.

Proteomics is an emerging discipline developed on the basis of genomics.The fundamental techniques of proteomics include sample preparation,protein separation,protein identification and analysis,and its core techniques are two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.In recent years,proteomics has been used in researching the field of Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB).Proteomics promotes deep understanding of the pathogenesis of MTB and resistance mechanism via isolating,identifying and analyzing the whole-cell protein and secreted proteins.The development of new vaccine against MTB has showed some promising results based on proteomics.Some powerful early diagnostic markers have been discovered via analyzing the protein composition of MTB clinical isolates.Proteomics also applies to find potential new drug targets,and it has shown many valuable research productions in developing new an-ti-MTB drugs.In summary,the application of proteomics has built a solid foundation for the development of prevention,early diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in cancer metastasis,and is relevant to the inflammatory microenvironment.Lipopolysaccharide (LPS),a cell wall constituent of gram-negative bacteria,has been reported to induce EMT of cancer cells through TLR4 signal.We previously reported that LPS promoted metastasis of mesenchymallike breast cancer cells with high expression of cyclin D 1 b.However,the role of cyclin D1b in LPS-induced EMT has not been fully elucidated.In the present study,we described that cyclin D1b augmented EMT induced by LPS in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.Cyclin D1b markedly amplified integrin αvβ3 expression,which was further up-regulated under LPS stimulation.Our results showed ectopic expression of cyclin D1b promoted invasiveness of epithelial-like MCF-7 cells under LPS stimulation.Additionally,LPS-induced metastasis and EMT in MCF-7-D1b cells might depend on αvβ3 expression.Further exploration indicated that cyclin D1b cooperated with HoxD3,a transcription factor promoting αvβ3 expression,to promote LPS-induced EMT.Knockout of HoxD3 repressed LPS-induced EMT and αvβ3 over-expression in MCF-7 cells with high expression of cyclin D1b.Specifically,all these effects were in a cyclin D1a independent manner.Taken all together,LPS up-regulated integrin αvβ3 expression in MCF-7 cells with high expression of cyclin D 1b and induced EMT in breast cancer cells,which highlights that cyclin D1b may act as an endogenous pathway participating in exogenous signal inducing EMT in breast cancer cells.
