Background and purpose: The increased of specific expression of prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3), as one of long non-coding RNA, has been observed in prostate cancer, indicating that PCA3 may contribute to the development of prostate cancer. To further study its roles in prostate cancer, we construct a lentivirus expression vector carrying the whole PCA3. Methods: PCA3 was amplified from prostate cancer cell line LNCaP by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). After the sequence was proved to be correct, we recombined the pCDH-CMV-MCS-EF1-copGFP-PCA3. After transformation into E.coli cells, the candidate clones were identified by PCR amplifying, restricting enzyme digestion analysis and DNA sequencing, and the viral titer was determined. Results: Through the Blast analysis software, we compared the results of PCA3 sequence amplified by PCR with GeneBank sequence, ifnding that the homology is 99.8%. The lentivirus vector was constructed successfully, and the virus in the supernatant reached a titer of 2*108. Conclusion: The successful construction of the lentivirus vector encoding PCA3 not only lays the foundation for the further research into the effect of PCA3 gene on the prostate cancer but also provides a new therapy for advanced prostate cancer.

AIM: To establish identification and determination methods for aristolochic acids. METHODS: The extracts of the sample were developed on silica gel G F254 plate, using supernatant layer of the mixture of toluene-ethyl acetate-water-formic acid (20 ∶10 ∶1 ∶1) as the mobile phase. Chromatogram system:gradient elution with mobile phase consisting of (A) 1% acetic acid in water and (B) methanol was used. The initial condition was at 40% of B and gradient up to 100% B in 15 minutes before returning to the initial conditions. Detection was at 310 nm. The column temperature was set at 40℃ and flow-rate was set at 1.0 mL/min. RESULTS: TLC:the Rf value of aristolochic acid Ⅰ was 0.50 and aristolochic acid Ⅱ was 0.53. The results of assay were shown as follow: The average recovery of aristolochic acid Ⅰ was 103.3% (RSD=0.98%). The average recovery of aristolochic acid Ⅱ was 95.97% (RSD=1.2%). CONCLUSION: It reveals that the methods we described are accurate, rapid and reproducible.

0.05). 1 h, 2 h , 3 h, and 4 h after co-culture, the inhibition rate in capsule-depleted group was higher than that of the wild strain group(P0.05). Conclusion: Capsule-depleted C. neoformans causes more significant endothelial cell injury than wild strain C. neoformans does, indicating that the capsule play an important role in C. neoformans-induced damage of endothelial cells.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of gadobenate dimeglumine (GD-BOPTA) multi-phase enhanced MRI for the expression of cytokeratin19 (CK19) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:A total of 153 patients of HCC confirmed by pathology from June 2016 to February 2020 in First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. According to the post-operative pathology, the patients were divided into CK19-negative group ( n=122) and CK19-positive group ( n=31). All the patients underwent MRI scan and Gd-BOPTA multi-phase enhanced scan before operation. MRI features on Gd-BOPTA MRI were compared between two groups. The qualitative indicators included tumor morphology, mosaic signs, intratumoral hemorrhage, intratumoral fat, non-rim arterial phase hyper-enhancement (APHE), non-peripheral washout, targetoid manifestation, enhanced capsule, corona enhancement, DWI signal, vascular invasion and hepatobiliary phase (HBP) enhancement. The quantitative indicator of tumor-to-liver signal ratio (SR) on HBP was recorded. The χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the qualitative parameters between two groups, and student′s t test or Mann -Whitney U test was used for quantitative data. Predictive parameters were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to predict the value of the expression of CK19. The ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of MRI parameters. Results:There were statistically significant differences between CK19-positive and CK19-negative groups ( P<0.05) in alpha fetoprotein, tumor morphology, non-rim APHE, non-peripheral washout, targetoid manifestation, corona enhancement, HBP enhancement and SR. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed tumor morphology, corona enhancement, HBP enhancement and SR were independent predictors of CK19 expression in HCC. The area under the ROC curve of the combined four indicators for predicting CK19 expression in HCC was 0.823, and the sensitivity and specificity were 80.7% and 75.4%, respectively. Conclusions:Gd-BOPTA multi-phase enhanced MRI has an important value in the prediction of the expression of CK19 in HCC. The combination of signs of HBP can improve the prediction efficiency of CK19.
