Objective cyclin D1 gene plays a significant role in regulating cell cycle progression.Suppression of cyclin D1 protcin expression can effect on cellular proliferation,distribution of cell cycle and apoptosis.This study was to determine whether this effect also existed in chronic leukemia ceil line K562 by inhibiting the expression of cyclin D1 protein through RNA interference in vetro.Methods Plasmid vectors expressing small hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting at cyclin D1 gene were constructed and transfected into K562 cells by chitosan,cyclin D1 protein was examined by using Western blot analysis.Inhibition of cellular proliferation was evaluated hy soft agar colony formation assay.The cell cycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry.Results Expression of cyclin D1 protein was markedly down-regulated and capability of colony formation was suppressed after transfection with pshRNA-419 and pshRNA-575 at 48h.Down-regulation of cyclin D1 protein could effect on distribution of cell cycle arrested at G_0/G_1 phase and markedly induce apoptosis of K562 cells.But there had no above biological effects ob- served after transfection with blank vector and control vector of m-pshRNA-790.Conclusion Down-regulation of cyclin D1 expression can inhibit growth of K562 cells,and effect on distribution of cell cycle arrested at G_0/G_1 phase.The primary results suggest that cyclin D1 gene might serve as an effective target for the treatment of leukemia.

OBJECTIVE: To select specific DNA aptamer for determining ketamine by FluMag-SELEX. METHODS: Based on magnetic beads with tosyl surface modification as solid carrier and ketamine as target, a random ssDNA library with total length of 78 bp in vitro was compounded. After 13 rounds screening, DNA cloning and sequencing were done. Primary and secondary, structures were analyzed. The affinity, specificity and Kd values of selected aptamer were measured by monitoring the fluorescence intensity. RESULTS: Two ssDNA aptamers (Apt#4 and Apt#8) were successfully selected with high and specific abilities to bind ketamine as target with Kd value of 0.59 and 0.66 μmol/L. The prediction of secondary structure was main stem-loop and G-tetramer. The stem was the basis of stability of aptamer's structure. And loop and G-tetramer was the key of specific binding of ketamine. CONCLUSION FluMag-SELEX can greatly improve the selection efficiency of the aptamer, obtain the ketamine-binding DNA aptamer, and develop a new method for rapid detection of ketamine.

Objective To study the effect of β-amyloid peptide (Aβ1-42) on expressions of synaptophysin (Syn), dynamin Ⅰ (Dyn Ⅰ) and adaptor protein 180 (AP180) in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Methods Human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells were treated with 0.01, 0.1, 1, 2 and 5 μmol/L Aβ1-42, and control cells were given no treatment. MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol- 2- yl) - 2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide]reduction of the cells was measured by spectrophotometry. The protein levels of Syn, Dyn Ⅰ and AP180 in SH-SY5Y cells treated with 0.5 and 1 μmol/L Aβ1-42 were surveyed by Western blotting. The mRNA levels of Syn, Dyn Ⅰ and AP180 were detected by Real-time PCR in SH-SY5Y cells treated with 1 μmol/L Aβ1-42. Results SH-SY5Y cells showed obviously decreased reduction rates of MTT after exposure to Aβ1-42(0.1 μmol/L) as compared with the controls (P＜0.05), and dose-dependent negative correlation was noted in these SH-SY5Y cells. The protein level of Dyn Ⅰ in cells treated with 0.5 μmol/L Aβ1-42 was significantly decreased as compared with that in controls (P＜0.05). The protein and mRNA levels of Syn and Dyn Ⅰ in cells treated with 1 μ mol/L Aβ1-42 Were obviously decreased as compared with those in controls (P＜0.05), but the levels of AP180 were not changed. Conclusion Aβ1-42 reduces the levels of Syn and Dyn Ⅰ in SH-SY5Y cells, which might be a mechanism in eonnection with cognitive deficit of AD.
