BACKGROUND:No ideal drugs can be used in the prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening of artificial joints. Some researchs showed that erythromycin has strong inhibitory effects on periprosthetic osteolysis. Its antibacterial activity, however, limits its application in artificial joint loosening prevention. LY267108 is a new type of erythromycin derivatives, eliminates the antibacterial activities, and retains the anti-inflammatory activity.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate inhibitory effect of LY267108 on nuclear factor kappa B during osteoclast activation.
METHODS:RANKL and macrophage colony-stimulating factor were added to RAW264.7 cellline of a mouse model induced by osteoclasts. Simultaneously, different concentrations of alendronate sodium, erythromycin and LY267108 were cocultured for 48 hours. The activity of nuclear factor kappa B and content of intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha were measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay and western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:LY267108 has a strong inhibitory effect on nuclear factor kappa B. 10 mg/L LY267108, 25 mg/L erythromycin and 10 mg/L alendronate sodium had similar inhibitory effects on nuclear factor kappa B, which was obviously stronger than 10 mg/L erythromycin. However, 25 mg/L LY267108 had strongest inhibitory effects. No significant difference in intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha levels was detected among 10 mg/L LY267108, 25 mg/L erythromycin and 10 mg/L alendronate sodium groups, but was stil apparently higher than 10 mg/L erythromycin group. Levels of intracytoplasmic inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha were highest in the 25 mg/L LY267108 group. Results indicated that LY267108 in the process of osteoclast activation had stronger inhibitory effects on nuclear factor kappa B compared with erythromycin, and its safety was higher than alendronate sodium. Simultaneously, LY267108 did not have antimicrobial activity, and became a potential ideal drug for prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening of artificial joints. However, the inhibitory effects of LY267108 on the degradation of inhibitory subunit of nuclear factor kappa B alpha would be a mechanism of inhibiting the activation of nuclear factor kappa B.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of 8-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the cell proliferation, apoptosis and collagen secretion in keloid fibroblasts and to provide the theoretical base for ALA-PDT treatment of keloids.

METHODSFibroblasts from keloid patients were cultured to the third generation in vitro and incubated in 0, 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L of δ-aminolevulinic acid for 3 h in the darkness. Then they were exposed to 635 nm wavelength red light ( 30 J/cm2 ) and continued incubation 24 h after irradiation. CCK-8 assay was used to detect proliferation inhibition rate of fibroblasts. The content of hydroxyproline was measured by colorimetric method. The expression of p-Akt and programmed cell death 4 ( PDCD4) were detected by Western blot.

RESULTSThe inhibition rate of keloid fibroblasts were respectively 0, (8.30 ± 1.01)%, (29.48 ± 3.27)%, (52.01 ± 5.34)%, (79.99 ± 5.85)% with the presence of difference concentrations (0, 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L) of ALA. The content of hydroxyproline were respectively (9.540 0 ± 0.352 42), (6.242 5 ± 0.224 85 ), (5.107 5 ± 0.534 88), (3.490 0 ± 0.623 48), (2.945 0 ± 0.514 10) μg/mg. The relative expression of p-Akt were respectively 1, 0.75 ± 0.12, 0.52 ± 0.14, 0.41 ± 0.18, 0.32 ± 0.09. The relative expression of PDCD4 were respectively 1, 1.18 ± 0.19, 1.51 ± 0.22, 0.15 ± 0.30, 2.44 ± 0.22. The difference was statistically significant when compared the group of 1, 3, 6, 9 mmol/L with 0 mmol/L (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSIn concentration within the range of 1-9 mmol/L, ALA could inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts significantly, promote fibroblasts apoptosis and reduce the content of hydroxyproline in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that 8-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy may be a potential treatment for keloid.

Human genes typically contain multiple intron s, and in many cases the exons can be joined more than one way to generate multi ple mRNAs, encoding distinct protein isoforms. This process is called alternativ e splicing. The article summarized the human cytochrome P450 pre mRNA alternati v e splicing and their regulatory mechanism and impacts on biological functions.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a complex gene superfamily of proteins that metabolizes a myriad of endogenous and exogenous substrates. Liver-enriched transcription factors (LETF) play a role in the constitutive and tissue-specific expression of hepatic genes. In this review, six families of LETF that play a role in the tissue-specific, developmental, sexual and temporal regulation of CYP are discussed.

Objective To explore the neuroprotective effect of dexmedetomidine ( Dex) in rats ex-posed to focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion ( I/R) induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion ( MCAO) and the possible mechansims.Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to MCAO for 90 min followed by reperfusion for 24 h and Dex ( 15μg? kg-1 ) was infused through the left femoral vein im-mediately after the onset of MCAO.The PI3K inhibitor LY294002 ( LY,10 mM,10 μl) or eNOS inhibitor L-NIO ( 1 mg? kg-1 ,10μl) was intracerebroventricular administered before ischemia using a microinjecton. The neurological deficit score,brain edema,cerebral infarct volume,and neuron survivals were evaluated after 24 h of reperfusion.The expression of p-Akt ( Ser473) and p-eNOS ( Ser1177) in the ischemic hemicere-brum was detected by Western Blot.Results Compared with I/R group,the neurological deficit score,cere-bral infarct volume,and the degree of brain edema were significantly reduced in the rats treated with Dex ((2.3±0.4) vs (3.9±0.6),(19.3±3.5)%vs (40.5±5.4)%,(61.8±8.1)%vs (76.3±8.5)%,all P<0.05)re-spectively,and the number of survival neuron in the hippocampal CA1 and cortex was significantly increased ((136.5±15.8)/mm vs (53.5±7.9)/mm,(253.8±26.4)/mm3vs (112.5±14.6)/mm3,all P<0.01) respec-tively.The neuroprotection in DEX group was significantly inhibited by LY and L-NIO ( P<0.05) .In addi-tion,the expression of p-Akt and p-eNOS in the ischemic hemicerebrum was markly reduced in LY group compared with that in DEX group ((3.94±0.45) vs (0.85±0.21),(2.14±0.25) vs (0.79±0.29),all P<0.01) ,while there was no significant difference in the expression of p-Akt in the ischemic hemicerebrum be-tween L-NIO group and DEX group ((3.76±0.33) vs (3.94±0.45), P>0.05).Conclusion Dex can reduce cerebral injury in rats exposed to focal I/R,which is mediated by the activation of PI3K/Akt-eNOS pathway.
