OBJECTIVE:To study the enzyme kinetics of six specific substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes. METHODS: The transforming amount of the corresponding metabolites of six substrates was determined by LC-MS/MS. The incubation conditions of substrates in human liver microsomes were optimized and the parameters of enzyme kinetics were calculated based on substrate concentration-reaction velocity curve. RESULTS: The optimal incubation time was 20 min and the optimal enzyme concentration was 0.25 mg protein?mL-1. The Km(?mol?L-1) values of phenacetin, tolbutamide, omeprazole, dextromethorphan,chlorzoxazone and nifedipine were 21.6,163.4,10.4,4.6,41.9 and 9.4 respectively. The Vmax (nmol?min-1?mg protein-1) values were 2.08, 0.52, 1.02, 0.40, 2.36 and 1.00 respectively. CONCLUSION: The enzyme kinetics of six specific substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes has been investigated in this study, and the study serves as a reference and support for the study and application of substrates in CYP.

Objective To detect the expression of promyelocytic leukemia(PML)gene in peripheral blood lymphocytes from patients with psoriasis vulgaris,and to investigate the relationship between PML gene and psoriasis.Methods This study included 50 patients with vulgaris psoriasis who were aged between 18 and 65 years and had never received systemic treatment,as well as 45 healthy controls.Peripheral blood samples were collected from these subjects,and lymphocytes were separated by density-gradient technique.Then,RNA was extracted from the lymphocytes by using RNAprep pure blood kit followed by real time fluorescence-based quantitative reverse transcription-PCR for the detection of PML mRNA expression.Flow cytometry was performed to quantify the expression of PML protein in the lymphocytes.Independent samples t test was carried out to compare the differences in PML expression between the patients and controls.Results The relative quantity (RQ)of PML mRNA was 14.98 ± 3.64 in peripheral blood lymphocytes from the patients,significantly higher than that in the healthy controls(5.50 ± 1.10,t =16.79,P ＜ 0.05).Similarly,a significant increment was observed in the fluorescence intensity of PML protein in peripheral blood lymphocytes from the patients compared with the healthy controls(3.13 ± 0.27 vs.2.43 ± 0.21,t =6.93,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions PML is overexpressed at the protein and mRNA levels in peripheral blood lymphocytes from patients with psoriasis vulgaris,hinting that PML may play a certain role in the development of psoriasis.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into osteoblasts under inducing condition that Zouguiwan and Youguiwan coordinate inducers, but the mechanism remains to be discussed. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of serum containing Zuoguiwan and Youguiwan on transforming growth factorβ1 and its signal transduction protein Smad2/3 message expression during the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:A whole bone marrow adherence method was adopted to isolate and cultivate bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from rats. The cellcultivation was processed in five groups:bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were respectively cultured with blank serum, serum containing Zouguiwan, serum containing Youguiwan, positive serum containing progynova+inducer (dexamethasone, vitamin C, andβ-glycerophosphate), and inducer. Western blot was applied to detect the expression of type I col agen. The immunohistochemical assay was utilized to test transforming growth factorβ1 and Smad2/3 expression in the osteoblasts. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:It was apparently more significant for serum containing Zuoguiwan and Youguiwan on type I col agen, transforming growth factorβ1 and Smad2/3 expression, compared with blank serum group and inducer group (P<0.05);moreover, serum containing Zuoguiwan was better than serum containing Youguiwan (P<0.05). Both of serum containing Zuoguiwan and Youguiwan are able to promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Moreover, Zuoguiwan is much more effective indicating that this method of traditional Chinese medicine about nourishing kidneys can be better to promote osteogenic induction of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
