Objective To establish a better and easier method for producing resveratrol and soybean isoflavone from polydatin and genistin by microbic metabolic enzyme. Methods The fungal strain Aspergillus niger S was fermented with solid medium. The enzyme isolated from Aspergillus niger S was purified by precipitation with ammonium sulfate and column chromatography with Q sepharose fast flow and superdex G200. The purified enzyme could be used to transform both resveratrol and soybean isoflavone. An analytical method for all the transformed products was established by the improved RP-HPLC. The HPLC separation was performed using a C18 250mm?4.6mm column and a gradient elution program. The eluent was acetonitrile/0.1% acetic acid in a flow rate of 1ml/min. The wavelength for ultraviolet detection was 280nm. Results The molecular weight of the enzyme isolated from Aspergillus niger S was about 165 kD, which was quite different from other reported glucosidases. The optimal temperature for this enzyme was 50℃, and the enzymatic activity decreased when the temperature dropped below 40℃ or elevated over 60℃. The optimal pH values were 5-10, and the enzyme would lose its activity if the pH was below 4. It was revealed by improved RP-HPLC that the products were polydatin and genistin at 27min and 39min, respectively, before enzyme treatment, while the transformed products at 45min and 64min after the enzyme treatment were resveratrol and genistein, respectively. Conclusions This purified enzyme isolated from Aspergillus niger S can transform both resveratrol and soybean isoflavone from low active form to high active form. It is a convenient and accurate method for the determination of resveratrol and soybean isoflavone. This method may be very useful in industry as well as clinical experimentation.

Congenital cataract accounts for 10％ of childhood blindness worldwide and is the second leading cause of childhood blindness in China.30％-50％ of congenital cataract patients are caused by heritability,and majority of them is autosomal dominant traits.In addition,autosomal recessive and X-linked fashion also are found to lead to congenital cataract.Up to now,more than 20 disease-causing genes and 100 mutation locus have been mapped to different chromosomal locations in the human genome using genetic linkage methods.The cataract-associated genes were classified as four categories,including crystallin gene,membrane protein gene,transcription factor regulatory gene and others,and they induce different phenotypes of cataract by different molecular mechanisms.To understand the disease-causing genes and their mechanism is helpful for the genetic diagnosis and treatment of congenital cataract.The current researching progress in molecular genetics of cataract is summarized in this review.

Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN),characterized pathologically by deposition of IgA complexes in the glomerular mesangium,is the most common form of primary glomerulo-nephritis in children and adolescents and is considered to be one of the important cause of end-stage renal failure.Abnormal immune factors become the research hotspot in recent years,but the specific pathogenesis has not yet been fully elucidated.Toll-like receptors are a family of receptors,which have been evolutionarily conserved to recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns.Toll-like receptors do not only play an important role in activation of innate immune,but also regulate acquired immune,which is a bridge connecting the natural immune and acquired immune.Studies have shown that Toll-like receptors plays an important role in the process of occurrence and development of IgAN.This paper reviews its biological characteristics and the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) in China. MethodsThe reported articles about clinical analysis of patients with PBC in China were searched. The quality of included studies was critically evaluated. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 4.2 software about controlled trials. Results① Ninety-one literatures including 2315 patients wuth PBC were included. ②The common symptoms in PBC were fatigue (54.54％). AMA was found in 74.1％～100％ of patients with PBC, as well as the prevalence rate of anti-M2 range from 45％ to 83％. ANA antibodies present in 20％～83.78％ of patients, the most common antinuclear patterns were nuclear-envelope(38.65％).Increased levels of IgM [(2.8±0.7)～(7.3±5.1) g/L], IgG [(16.5±4.9)～(20.5±5.9) g/L] were found in these patients, and the most common liver histologic classification was type Ⅱ (36.6％). Sjogren's syndrome occured significantly more frequently in PBC (1.96％～34.61％). To the end of follow-up period (five months to nintysix months ), 3.80％ of patients were dead. ③ Meta-analysis performed in several case control studies, showed no significant differences was found in liver tests including of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotrans ferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBil), or gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), IgG levels between AMA positive groups and AMA negative groups. However, lower levels of IgM presented in the latter. While it also showed that levels of ALP decreased after ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)therapy. The levels of TBil were lower in the elderly than in younger group, but the mortality ratio for liver diseases was higher in the former. ConclusionThe clinical characteristics of the present series in China are mostly similar to those reported in other countries. Because of the low quality and the small number of included studies, larger sample-size, randomized, double-blinded controlled trials are needed.

Objective To examine the dyllamic changes in excitatory and inhibitory amino acid neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord in a rat model of incisional pain.Methods Twelve healthy adult male SD rats weighing 250-300g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate 300 mg/kg.A loop microdialysis catheter was implanted into the subarachnoid space via the atlanto-occipital membrane and advanced for 8.5 cm candad until lumbar region.The animals were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=6 each): control group(C) and incisional pain group(I).Incisional pain was produced by the plantar incision in the tight hindpaw under 1.2% isoflurane in group I while group C received only anesthesia with 1.2% isoflurane.The microdialysis samples were collected before incision(To,baseline)at 3 h,1 d,2 d and 3 d after incision(T1-4) for determination of amino acid using HPLC.The pain behavior was assessed and scored (O=no pain,2=severe pain) at the above time paints.Results In group I the aspartate and glutamate concentrations in the microdialysis samples were significantly increased at 3 h after incision(T1) as compared with the baseline value at To and returned to the baseline level at l d(T2);the glyeine and r-amino butyric acid concentrations were signifieantly increased at ld (T2)and returned to the baseline level at 2 d(T3).The cumulated pain scores were significantly increased at 3 h,1 d and 2 d after incision and returned to baseline level at 3 d (T4) in group I.Conclusion The increased release of excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter in the early phase after incision may be involved in hyperalgesia while the increased release of inhibitory amino acid neurotransmitter in the later phase may be involved in the pain relief.
