China Biotechnology 2006;0(05):-
Past decade,plants as production systems for recombinant proteins has been actively investigated,and is one of the most active research fields in life sciences. Plants are attractive as protein factories because they with advantages of cost,scale,and safety,and emerge capability to produce pharmaceutical production with bioactivity proved by previously studies. The plant-made pharmaceuticals possess enormous viability for market and wide prospects for application. Based on those reasons,the rise of plant bioreactor was reviewed,and research advance on the expression systems and plant-made recombinant proteins was introduced. Bottleneck problems and adopted strategies using plant system to produce recombinant proteins and research hotspot in the near future were summarized,and prospect of plant bioreactor in future was described. Synchronously,some opinions including research progress of plant bioreactor,differences to foreign and strategies in the future were discussed.

Objective To evaluate osteoporosis and the bone turnover markers in patients with Graves′ disease(GD) and the association of bone turnover markers including serum osteocalcin ( OCN ),I procollagen Nterminal propeptide( PINP),serum alkaline phosphatase ( ALP),and β- I collagen carboxyl-terminal peptide ( β-CTX)with thyroid hormone levels.Methods A total of 163 patients with Graves′ disease were enrolled.Serum thyroid hormone,OCN,PINP,and β-CTX levels were measured by the method of ethchemiluminescence.Serum ALP,calcium,phosphorus,and urinary calcium/creatinine ratio were measured by automatic biochemical system.Bone mineral density ( BMD ) of lumbar spines 1-4 ( L 1-4 ) and the proximal left femur was detected by dual energy xray absorptiometry.Results GD cases enrolled were composed of 43 men (26.4% )and 120 women ( 73.6% ),with an average age of ( 47 ± 1 ) years.There were 126 cases ( 77.3% ) with normal BMD,and 37 cases ( 22.7% ) with osteoporosis.OCN,ALP,PINP,β-CTX,and free T3 levels were significantly higher in the group of osteoporosis than those in the group with normal BMD( P<0.05 or P<0.01 ) after adjusting for sex,age,and BMI.The levels of OCN,P1NP,and β-CTX were positively correlated with serum FT3 level ( all P<0.01 ) and were also progressively increased according to the quartile groups of FT3 levels ( P<0.01 ) after sex,age,and BMI were adjusted.Conclusion Patients with Graves′ disease had a high incidence of osteoporosis with characristic high rate of bone turnover,which is related to the raised thyroid hormone levels.

Objective To analyze the present situation about early screening of developmental dysplasia of the hip( DDH) of infants in Shapingba district of Chongqing,and to explore the methods to improve the rate of diagnosis about DDH. Methods A total of 2 066 infants among 0~6 months old living in Shapingba district of Chongqing,were examined with clinical and ultrasound method on hip. Results Six infants with DDH were discovered among the 2 066 infants,which was more common in the female baby. The deficiency of hospital in which can exam hip with ultrasound method and the deficiency about DDH were the significant factors affecting the low detection rate. Conclusion Necessary measure must be taken to improve the low detection rate of DDH.

Objective To study the damage of hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) on the structure of rats cerebral vessels,and to explore the treatment effect of probucol,folic acid and vitamin B12.Methods Totally,70 male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into seven groups:normal control (A),HHcy model (B),low-dose-probucol (C),middle-dose-probucol (D),high-dose-probucol (E),folic-acid plus vitamin B12 (F),folic-acid plus vitamin B12 plus probucol(G)group.Group A was fed plain feedstuff and water.Other groups were fed homomethionin feedstuff and water,probucol (340,510,680 mg· kg-1 · d-1),folic acid and vitamin B12,folic acid plus vitamin B12 plus probucol respectively.The plasma concentrations of homocysteine(Hcy) and ADMA were assayed by high-performance liquid chromatography method (HPLC) at the beginning,and at the end of 8 and 12 weeks.The analysis of rats cerebral vessels was performed with electron microscope at the end of 12 weeks.Results (1) After adding high concentrations of methionine feedstuff for 8 weeks,the levels of Hcy in group B (60.4±11.9) μmol/L were significantly raised compared with group A(7.1±1.4) μmol/L.Meanwhile,ADMA levels in group B(1.3±0.4)μmol/L were higher than group A(0.4±0.1) μmol/L.At the end of 12 week,the levels of Hcy and ADMA were lower in groups C[(49.9±11.4)μmol/L,(1.0±0.2)μmol/L],D [(46.8± 10.9)μmol/L,(0.9±0.1)μmol/L],E[(44.3±11.4)μmol/L,(0.9±0.1)μmol/L],F [(16.3 ± 4.9)μmol/L,(0.7 ± 0.2)μmol/L] compared with group B [(69.5 ± 11.4)μmol/L,(1.6 ±0.5)μmol/L],but higher than group A[(6.7±1.3)μmol/L,(0.5±0.1)μmol/L].The levels of Hcy and ADMA in group G[(8.9±1.9) μmol/L,(0.6±0.2) μmol/L]were also lower than those in group B (P<0.05],but they did not show statistically significant differences compared with group A(P>0.05).(2) According to correlative analysis,Hcy levels were positively correlated with ADMA levels (P<0.05).(3) On electron microscope,we observed that the cerebral artery and cerebral cortex of group B were seriously damaged.After the intervention with probucol,folic acid and vitamin B12,the structure of rats cerebral vessels were improved in group C,D,E,F and G as compared with group B,and group G were especially improved more obviously.Conclusions The HHcy and ADMA could damage the structure of rats cerebral vessels.Probucol,folic acid and vitamin B12 may alleviate the cerebral vascular damage by decreasing the levels of Hcy and ADMA,and the effect is more significant by the combined drug regimens of Probucol,folic acid and vitamin B12.

AIM:To observe the effects on human keratocytes by cationic liposome LipofectamineTM 2000(LF2000).to investigate the efficiency and safe range applied in human keratocytes,and establish basis for gene therapy of human keratocytes.METHODS: Human keratocytes cultured in vivo within 3 to 5 passages were used in experiment after being identified.The effects on proliferation of cultured human keratocytes by LF2000 with different concentrations and time were evaluated By MTT:the effects of LF2000 on the survival rate and its relation with 5,10,20,40.80mg/L concentration and time were detected by trypan blue staining.related with concentration and time.The cellular proliferation and survival rate declined when concentration of LF2000 was above certain level,and this effect increased as time became longer.LF2000 had no effect with concentration under 40mg/L for 24 hours. CONCLUSION:LF2000 did ont cause cytotoxicity during a concentration range"tested",and it is hoped to play an important role in gene therapy of human keratocytes.

Visfatin was recently reported as an adipokine and was found to exert insulin-mimicking effects.The results showed that the expression of visfatin parallelled with obesity and insulin resistance in long term high fat chow-fed rats.The expression of visfatin mRNA was decreased and the insulin resistance improved after rennin-angiotensin system was blocked.Visfatin may play an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.

Objective To prepare 2-[18F]fiuoropropionic acid (18F-FPA) and evaluate its biodistribution and imaging capacity in Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing mice.Methods 18F-FPA was prepared by nucleophilic substitution reaction,and its hydrophilicity was analyzed.18F-FPA (7.4-11.1 MBq) was injected into Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing mice via tail vein.MicroPET imaging was performed at 20,80 min after the injection.The biodistribution of 18F-FPA in organs was analyzed.The blocking effects of sodium propionate and dichloroacetate to 18F-FPA were tested in vivo.Data were analyzed by two-sample t test using GraphPad Prism software.Results The synthesis of 18F-FPA took 40 min.18F-FPA had high radiochemical purity (>99%) and hydrophilicity.18F-FPA was mainly distributed in the carcinoma,the urinary bladder and the caecum.The radioactive uptakes in muscles,brown fat and bones were relatively low.Quantitative analysis showed that the uptake of 18F-FPA in Lewis lung carcinoma from 20 min to 80 min was slightly increased ((17.03±2.87) %ID/g vs (19.33±2.45) %ID/g) without significant difference (t=1.100,P>0.05).Neither sodium propionate nor dichloroacetate could block the uptake of 18F-FPA in Lewis lung carcinoma (t=1.544,0.894;both P>0.05).Conclusions 18F-FPA can be quickly synthesized and has good physicochemical properties.It can be used as a tracer to visualize Lewis lung carcinoma in mice,and its tumor uptaking can not be blocked by propionate and dichloacetate.18 F-FPA PET has the potential to detect lung cancer noninvasively in clinic.
