OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy combined with Paishi decoction in the treatment of kidney stone. METHODS:160 patients with kidney stone were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 80 cases in each group. Control group only received HB-ESWL-VG extracorporeal shock wave litho-tripsy;observation group additionally received Paishi decoction 300 ml,tid,for consecutive 1 week,on the basis of control group. Clinical efficacy was observed in 2 groups;the levels of serum inflammatory factor IL-2,IL-6,TNF-α,T lymphocyte subset CD3+,CD4+,CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+,erythrocyte immune function indicator C3b receptor rosette(C3bRR),immunity complex ro-sette(ICR)and tumor erythrocyte rosette(TER)level were detected in 2 groups before and after treatment. RESULTS:The effec-tive rate of observation group(98.75%)was significantly higher than that of control group(91.25%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment,the levels of IL-2,IL-6 and TNF-α in observation group was significantly lower than in control group, the levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,C3bRR,ICR and TER were significantly higher than control group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). Comparsion of CD8+between 2 groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The extracor-poreal shock wave lithotripsy combined with Paishi decoction can relieve inflammation reaction,enhance immune function and im-prove therapeutic efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit A (sdha)gene on cell proliferation,cell cycle and apoptosis of mouse hepatic cell line BNL CL.2 cells. METHODS The BNL CL.2 cells were transfected by two kinds of sdha-shRNA lentivirus to knockdown sdha gene. The infection efficiency of BNL CL.2 cells infected with lentiviral vectors was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of sdha gene and SDHA protein was detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting,respectively. The effect of sdha gene on cell proliferation of BNL CL.2 cells was examined by growth curve,while cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS The infection efficiency of BNL CL.2 cells in sh-control group and in sdha-shRNA group was above 80%. Compared with sh-control group,the expression of sdha gene in BNL CL.2 cells infected with sdha-shRNA lentivirus was decreased by about 20 times(P<0.01),the expression of SDHA protein was decreased by about 10 times(P<0.01),and the growth rate was about 70%that of sh-control group(P<0.05). The cells were arrested in S phase,and the percentage of cells in S phase was 0.74 times that of sh-control group(P<0.01). The percentage of cells in G0/GI phase was 1.17 times that of sh-control group(P<0.01). The percentage of cells in G2/M was 1.37 times that of sh-control group(P<0.01). But there was no obvious difference in the apoptosis rate. CONCLUSION The reduced expression of SDHA protein can inhibit the proliferation of mouse hepatic cells,and the inhibitory mechanism may be cell cycle arrest. There is possibly no relationship between inhibition and cell apoptosis.

AIM: To construct the prokaryotic expression plasmid of His-tagged human high mobility group box 1 fusion protein (hHMGB1) and to express the fusion protein in E. coli for the affinity purification. METHODS: The cDNA coding region of HMGB1 was amplified by PCR from pGEX4T-HMGB1 and cloned into a modified pET14b vector following the routine procedure. After identification by enzyme digestion, PCR and sequencing, the plasmid was transformed into BL21 (DE_3) competent cells, and the His-HMGB1 fusion protein was induced for expression with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG), and further purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The protein was filtered for sterilization and used to stimulate human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). 24 hours later, the cultured supernatant of HUVECs was collected for the detection of cytokines/chemokines with LiquiChip system. RESULTS: The His-HMGB1 fusion protein expression plasmid was identified by enzyme digestion and sequencing. The purified His-tagged fusion protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting with specific anti-His antibody. It was found that the production of IL-8 from HUVECs was highly induced in a dose-dependent manner by HMGB1. CONCLUSION: The His-tagged HMGB1 fusion protein expression plasmid was successfully constructed, and purified. Recombinant HMGB1 protein has a high bioactivity on the induction of cytokines in HUVECs, which may significantly facilitate the future study of HMGB1 biological functions.
