The synthesized full-length hGLP-1 gene was cloned into pET-32a(+) to get the recombinant plasmid pET32-GLP-1, which could express a fusion protein containing thioredox, hexahistidine, and rhGLP-1 consecutively. The recombinant plasmid containing hGLP-1 was transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3) and expressed by IPTG induction. The fusion protein was purified from lysates with Ni?IDA His?Bind affinity chromatography. rhGLP-1 with the purity of 90% was achieved after enterokinase digestion, Ni?IDA His?Bind affinity chromatography again, then was concentrated by ultrafiltration. The purified rhGLP-1 showed a single band on IEF gel with an isoelectric point between pH5.2 and pH5.85. ESI mass spectrometry showed that the molecular weight was 3355.0kDa as expected. rhGLP-1 was digested with trypsin followed by mass analysis and the peptide mapping produced two expected fragments with the molecular weights of 2097.7kDa and 1005.5kDa, respectively. The purified rhGLP-1 also showed obvious biological activity for both lowering plasma glucose and stimulating insulin secretion in mice.

Objective:To study the serological characteristics of ABO*A2.08 subtype and explore its genetic molecular mechanism.Methods:ABO blood group identification was performed on proband and her family members by routine serological methods.ABO genotyping and sequence analysis were performed by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer(PCR-SSP),and direct sequencing of PCR products from exons 6 and 7 of ABO gene were directly sequenced and analyzed.The effect of gene mutation in A2.08 subtype on structural stability of GTA protein was investigated by homologous protein conserved analysis,3D molecular modeling and protein stability prediction.Results:The proband's serological test results showed subtype Ax,and ABO genotyping confirmed that the proband's genotype was ABO*A207/08.Gene sequencing of the proband's father confirmed the characteristic variation of c.539G>C in the 7th exon of ABO gene,leading to the replacement of polypeptide chain p.Arg180Pro(R180P).3D protein molecular modeling and analysis suggested that the number of hydrogen bonds of local amino acids in the protein structure was changed after the mutation,and protein stability prediction showed that the mutation had a great influence on the protein structure stability.Conclusion:The mutation of the 7th exon c.539G>C of ABO gene leads to the substitution of polypeptide chain amino acid,which affects the structural stability of GTA protein and leads to the change of enzyme activity,resulting in the A2.08 phenotype.The mutated gene can be stably inherited.

Aim To explore the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)signaling pathway in high fat-induced cell apoptosis in human umbilical vein endo-thelial cells(HUVECs). Methods HUVECs were ex-posed to different concentrations of palmitic acid(0. 1, 0. 2,0. 4,0. 8 mmol·L - 1 )for 24 h and different time points of 0. 4 mmol·L - 1 palmitic acid(0,12, 24,48 h). Cell viability was measured by cell count-ing kit(CCK-8),and the protein expressions of ERS signaling pathway protein such as GRP78,CHOP, PERK,IRE1,ATF6 were determined by Western blot. The level of intracellular apoptosis was detected by immunofluorescence. Results HUVECs exposed to palmitic acid at 0. 4 mmol·L - 1 for 24 h showed a de-crease in their viability and an increase in the expres-sion of ERS signaling pathway proteins (GRP78, CHOP,PERK,IRE1,ATF6)(P < 0. 05);cell ap-optotic levels significantly increased(P < 0. 05). The intracellular apoptosis levels in the vascular endothelial cells of ERS signaling pathway inhibitor 4-phenylbutyr-ic acid (4-PBA,10 mmol · L - 1 )were significantly lower than those of the PA group(P < 0. 05). Conclu-sion Activated ERS signaling pathway might play an important role in the treatment of high fat-induced cell apoptosis in vascular endothelial cells.

AIM To prepare capsaicin phospholipid complex gel and to investigate its pharmacokinetic behaviors.METHODS Phospholipid complex was prepared by solvent evaporation method,whose PBS solution was then poured into Carbopol 940 solution to prepare gel.With feed ratio (phospholipid-capsaicin),capsaicin concentration and reaction time as influencing factors,phospholipid complex's recombination rate as an evaluation index,the preparation was optimized by central composite design-response surface method on the basis of single factor experiment.Rabbits were percutaneously administered with phospholipid complex gel and ordinary gel,respectively,after which LC-MS/MS was adopted in the content determination of capsaicin in plasma.Then the drug concentration-time curves for two gels were drawn,followed by the calculation of their pharmacokinetic parameters.RESULTS The optimal conditions were determined to be 2.3:1 for feed ratio,16 mg/mL for capsaicin concentration,2 h for reaction time,and 55 ℃ for reaction temperature,the recombination rate was 97.84%.The phospholipid complex gel demonstrated its superiority to the ordinary gel with higher Cmax,AUC0→∞,and lower tmax.CONCLUSION Capsaicin prepared into phospholipid complex gel has obviously increased bioavailability and improved percutaneous absorption.

OBJECTIVETo study the relationship between ultrasonic bone mineral density (BMD) of calcaneus and age, height, and body weight, and to establish the normal reference value for stiffness index (SI) of healthy subjects in Guangxi autonomous region and provide scientific foundation for the diagnosis and prevention of osteoporosis.
METHODSSI of calcaneus in 1 816 healthy adults aged 11-90 years (775 men, 1 041 women) were measured with quantitative ultrasound. According to their ages, all the men and women were divided into 13 groups by 5-year age group.
RESULTSSI reached peak values in 21-25 year group in men (range: 111.45 +/- 21.19) and in 16-20 year group in women (range: 101.26 +/- 17.51). Then the SI value began to decline with aging. The SI featured by a typical dual-peak curve in women and the decrease rate of SI was faster in women than in men over 61 years. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed significantly negative correlation between SI and age (P < 0.001), positive correlation between SI and body weight (P < 0.05 for men; P < 0.01 for women), and positive correlation between SI and height in women (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSI correlates with age, height, and weight. The acquired SI value may provide a reference for the diagnosis of osteoporosis.
