Fosmidomycin (100 micromol x L(-1)) which is the effective inhibitor of DXR, key enzyme in terpenoid MEP pathway, was used to treat with hairy roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza. The treated roots were harvested at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 16 and 21 d, mRNA level of SmDXR and tanshinone content in treated and negative control groups were detected. Results found that, after treated with fosmidomycin, color of S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots grew pale gradually comparing with controls; mRNA level of SmDXR in hairy roots varied as a shape of parabolic and the highest value achieved at the sixth day after treatment, then it decreased gradually; Content of four kinds of tanshinones were detected. Among of the four kinds of tanshinones, Tanshinone I content changed relatively little, while content of dihydrotanshinone I, cryptotanshinone and tanshinone II (A) decreased gradually in 21 days. The content of total tanshinones in NC groups was 5, 63 times more than FOS-treated roots in the 21th day. The previous results showed that SmDXR played an important role in the accumulation of tanshinone content in MEP pathway. Once the mRNA level of SmDXR was suppressed, the accumulation of secondary metabolites will be significantly affected.

Pestalotiopsis photiniae is one of the predominant pathogens of strawberry root rot disease. Based on preliminary research, it was proved that crude toxins were main pathogenic substances of the pathogen. For further investigation and utilization of toxins produced by this fungus, conditions of producing toxins were analyzed with the leaf disk method in this experiment. The result showed that pH values, cultural time, vibration, and tested temperatures obviously affected the production of toxins, except for light treatment. The most suitable culture conditions for the toxin production were pH 6.2, 25?C, darkness and stillness, for 5 d~7 d. Besides, it was discovered that crude toxins could significantly inhibit seed germination and elongation growth of roots or shoots for maize, rye and mung bean.

Objective:To determine if suitable electric pulses-mediated DNA and DNA and bupivacaine complexes delivery technologies could enhance effects of botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A) DNA vaccines in mouse model. Methods:Vaccination of mice i.m. with plasmid DNA replicon vaccine pSCARSHc and conventional plasmid DNA vaccine pcDNASHc following electric pulses and with DNA and bupivacaine complexes. AHc-specific group antibody ELISA titers and lymphocyte proliferative responses of mice were detected and IgG1 and IgG2a isotype profiles were assayed. Results:Immune effects of DNA vaccines were enhanced following electric pulses and bupivacaine delivery. Effects of DNA vaccines following electric pulses were better than that of DNA vaccines formulated with bupivacaine,and the combined delivery technology of electric pulses and bupivacaine induced the highest level of specific antibodies and lymphocyte proliferative responses. Plasmid DNA replicon vaccine pSCARSHc induced relatively higher AHc-specific antibodies and lymphocyte proliferative responses in immunized Balb/c mice than conventional plasmid DNA vaccine pcDNASHc in these DNA delivery technologies. And vaccine pSCARSHc induced Th2/Th1-type immune responses with a general bias to Th2-type,and vaccine pcDNASHc induced Th2-type immune responses. Conclusion:Suitable electric pulses-mediated DNA and DNA and bupivacaine complexes delivery technologies could enhance effects of BoNT/A DNA vaccines in mouse model. Therefore,the methods described here potentially provide suitable strategies in developing an efficacious vaccine against botulinum neurotoxin serotype A.

Objective To explore the differences of TCM constitutions and lifestyles among the subjects with positive tumor marker screening and those with normal tumor marker screening. Methods Totally 245 subjects with positive tumor marker screening from September 2014 to December 2017 in Weihai area were selected as the observation group and 300 subjects with normal tumor marker screening were selected as the control group. Field questionnaire was used to investigate TCM constitutions and lifestyles. Results In the observation group, the ratio of constitution of yin-yang harmony was significantly lower than the control group, with statistical significance (χ2=207.483, P<0.001). The ratios of constitution of phlegm-dampness, constitution of blood stasis, constitution of qi deficiency and constitution of qi stagnation were significantly higher than the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was statistical significance between the 2 groups in irregular rest, heavy drinking, regular smoking, lack of exercise, irregular diet and partial eclipse (P<0.05). CEA, a positive indicator of tumor markers in the observation group, was commonly found in constitution of phlegm-dampness (40.43%) and constitution of qi deficiency (22.70%); CA199 was commonly found in constitution of qi stagnation (38.71%) and constitution of qi deficiency (24.19%); AFP was commonly found in constitution of blood stasis (38.46%) and constitution of qi deficiency (23.08%); CA125 was commonly found in constitution of blood stasis (33.33%) and constitution of qi stagnation (19.05%); CYFRA21-1 was commonly found in constitution of phlegm-dampness (54.55%) and constitution of qi deficiency (22.73%); PSA was commonly found in constitution of phlegm-dampness (61.52%) and constitution of damp-heat (23.08%). Conclusion Effectively controling the distribution of TCM constitutions of subjects with positive tumor marker screening in Weihai area and understanding the influence of lifestyles on tumor markers can provide guidance for clinical improvement of patients' biased constitutions and reduction of positive indicators of tumor markers.
