Objective To study the effects of valproic acid (VPA) to the expression of SMN2 mRNA in neuron-like cells (NLCs) derived from patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Methods Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymerphism (PCR-RFLP) was performed to select the patients with SMA. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from patients were induced into NLCs which were set as the model of neurons. The transcripts of SMN2 by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) combined with sequenceing were detected. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed to detect the changes of SMN2 mRNA expression between before and after the NLCs were treated by VPA. Results Two bands (266 bp and 212 bp) were found in the gel picture of RT-PCR, which were respectively the products of full length transcript (fl-SMN mRNA) and skipping exon 7 (SMN?7 mRNA). NLCs had significantly increased fl-SMN mRNA and SMN?7 mRNA levels as compared with the untreated cells after treatment with VPA, and shown a dose effect(0.210?0.035,0.282?0.041,0.351?0.020,0.450?0.052,0.553?0.035,P

Aim To develop a simple and rapid method to monitor insulin receptor kinase activity and provide a novel cell-based model for screening anti-diabetes drugs.Methods CHO cells were co-transfected by plasmids which respectively contained insulin receptor gene,STAT5b gene and luciferase gene driven by STAT5 response elements.The expression of exogenous gene in transfected cells was examined by RT-PCR.The transfected cells were treated by insulin,and then the concentration and time-dependent response of luciferase expression to insulin induction was examined.Moreover,the specificity was identified by AG1024 treatment and PTP1B gene transfection.Results Expressions of insulin receptor and STAT5b were detected in the transfected CHO cells.The expression of luciferase in transfected cells was induced by insulin in concentration and time-dependent way.The maximal induction fold was 6.25.Moreover,the inducible expression of luciferase by insulin could be specifically blocked by tyrphostin AG1024,an inhibitor of insulin receptor kinase,or co-transfected PTP1B gene.Conclusions The insulin receptor kinase activity can be detected by expression of reporter gene with high sensitivity and specificity in this cell model,and with potential value in high throughput screening for insulin receptor activators and sensitizers.

Objective To find out the proper concentration of ZnSO4?7H2O as foliar fertilizer used for Pinellia ternata, and to provide reference for high yield of P.ternate,effects of zinc on the carbon and nitrogen metabolism in leaves of P.ternata and the yield were studied.Methods Seedlings of P.ternata were employed as the experiment material.At the stage of full seedling,ZnSO4?7H2O of different concentration was sprayed on the leaves,the indexes of carbon and nitrogen metabolism were determined on the day 10,the weight of tubers and bulbils were measured at the sprout tumble stage.Results The yield of P.ternata has an exceedingly significant positive correlation with the contents of soluble sucrose and starch in the leaves,a significant positive correlation with the content of photosynthetic pigment and the aldolase activity,and a negative correlation with the amylase activity.In addition,the yield shows both an exceedingly significant positive correlation whith the nitrate reductase activity and a significant positive correlation with the content of protein.At the stage of full seedling,zinc sprayed on leaves can increase the content of photosynthetic pigment and improve the capability of photosynthesis.Meanwhile,spraying zinc can also promote the accumulation of soluble sucrose and starch in the leaves because of its stimulation on aldolase and inhibition on amylase.Besides,spraying zinc on leaves could improve the activity of nitrate reductase and the content of protein,and finally increase the yield of P.ternata.Conclusion The concentration of 600 mg/L is the best for ZnSO4?7H2O used as foliar fertilizer for P.ternate at the stage of full seedling.

Poor and monotonous work could easily lead to a decrease of arousal level of the monitoring work personnel. In order to improve the performance of monitoring work, low arousal level needs to be recognized and awakened. We proposed a recognition method of low arousal by the electroencephalogram (EEG) as the object of study to recognize the low arousal level in the vigilance. We used wavelet packet transform to decompose the EEG signal so the EEG rhythms of each component were obtained, and then we calculated the parameters of relative energy and energy ratio of high-low frequency, and constructed the feature vector to monitor low arousal state in the operation. We finally used support vector machine (SVM) to recognize the low arousal state in the simulate operation. The experimental results showed that the method introduced in this article could well distinguish low arousal level from arousal level in the vigilance and it could also get a high recognition rate. Have been compared with other analysis methods, the present method could more effectively recognize low arousal level and provide better technical support for wake-up mechanism of low arousal state.
