Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2005;5(3):7-10. doi:10.3969/j.issn.1673-6273.2005.03.002

In physiological property and growing environment aspects, there are some similarities between Acidthiobacillus ferrooxidans(ATF) and magnetotactic bacteria. ATF shows magnetotacxis under the microscope. The magnetosome can be extracted from ATF by using the extracting method of magnetosome from magnetotactic bacteria. The membrane of ATF was crushed by ultrasonic wave and the magnetosomes in the ATF which mainly contains Fe through chemical detection were attracted by using magnetite. After purifing with sucrose density gradient centrifugation and washing by PBS, the magnetosomes can be seen clearly through a transmission electron microscope. The results indicate there are a small amount of intracellular magnetosomes which made the ATF be magnetotactic under the applied magnetic field. It is the first time to find that ATF was magnetotactic. The magnetotaxis of ATF can be utilized and isolated by the magnetotactic properties to gain the high-performance ATF strains of mineral leaching, which have high activity and different magnetism.

Yan ZHAO ; Tao ZHANG ; Jianjun ZHANG ; Zhichao ZHENG ; Yiliang ZHAO ; Yoshihiko MAEHARA ; Huimian XIU

Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2008;8(5):875-880. doi:10.3969/j.issn.1673-6273.2008.05.023

Microsatellite instability(MSI)was defined according to the frequency of positive findings in a panel of MSI markers.High frequency MSI(MSI-H)was the phenotype in which repeat sequences were extraordinarily unstable, and was considered to be the bona fide phenotype of DNA mismatch repair defection. However base substitutions in some well studied oncogenes or tumor suppressors were reported to be uncommon in MSI-H tumors. To explore this obvious contradiction, the relationship between MSI and KRAS gene mutations were studied in a panel of 76 human colorectal carcinomas, the whole exon of MLH1 and MSH2 were sequenced for MSI-H tumors. KRAS gene mutation was confirmed by similar frequencies in tumors of different MSI status. Intriguingly, all of the KRAS mutant MSI-H tumors harbored sequence alterations in MLH1gene, which was a key player in DNA mismatch repair system. This implied that in MSI-H tumors carrying MMR mutations, KRAS mutation were frequently and almost exclusively occurred. Furthermore, these MMR mutants were uniformly carrying a unique modification + jumping type MSI, which was different to MSI-H tumors without MLH1 or MSH2 gene mutations. This study shaded lights on the heterogeneity of MSI-H tumors, and implied the connection between modification type MSI and DNA mismatch defection.

Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2017;17(24):4699-4701,4705. doi:10.13241/j.cnki.pmb.2017.24.024

Objective:To compare the three effects of lidocaine in the prevention of general anesthesia in elderly patients.Methods:A total of 120 elderly patients (65-85 years old) underwent anesthesia with general anesthesia (ASA) Ⅰ ～ Ⅱ were randomly divided into thyrocricocentesis group (group H),throat surface anesthesia group (Group Y),intravenous injection group (group J) and control group (group D).Group H was injected with lidocaine for surface anesthesia;group Y used laryngeal spray for laryngeal sprayed lidocaine for surface anesthesia;group J was anesthetized induction of intravenous lidocaine to prevent intubation reaction;group D the control group was not treated with lidocaine.(SBP) and heart rate (HR) were measured before and after induction (T0),tracheal intubation (T1) and 1 (T2),3 (T3) and 5 min (T4),the changes of hemodynamics related indexes were compared.Results:Compared with the same group of T0,the SBP and HR of four groups of T1 moments were significantly decreased (P ＜0.05);In the other three groups,SBP was significantly increased at T2 and T3 (P ＜0.05),HR ofT2 was significantly increased (P ＜0.05);Compared with group D,SBP and HR in group H,Y and J were significantly different at T2,T3 and T4,he difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.05);but there was no statistically significant difference between the three groups (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion:The three ways of lidocaine can be used to prevent the general anesthesia reaction in elderly patients,the effect of three ways is parallel.However,cricothyroid membrane puncture increased the patient's pain,throat spray method increased the cumbersome operation and enhanced the cost of the patient,and intravenous injection method is simple and worthy of popularization and application in clinic.

Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2017;17(24):4645-4649. doi:10.13241/j.cnki.pmb.2017.24.010

Objective:To investigate the effects of shikonin on osteoclastogenesis in vitro and amelioration of bone loss in ovariectomized-induced osteoporosis in mouse model.Methods:The optimal concentration of shikonin treating were evaluated in vitro depending on its effect on the viability of C57BL/6J mouse bone-marrow-derived macrophages by CCK-8 method.To establish the osteoclastogenesis cell model,macrophages were cultured with RANKL and M-CSF treatment,and TRAP staining was used to observe the generation of osteoclasts after treating with different concentration of shikonin solution.Expressions of osteoclast marker genes,including TRAP,c-Fos and NFATclwere detected with real-time PCR.Fifthteen mice were randomly allocated into sham operation group,ovariectomized model group and shikonin treatment group.After the modeling,mice in treatment group were received the intraperitoneal injection of shikonin,while the other two groups treated with normal saline.After thirty days treatments,all animals' tibias were dissected for micro-CT analysis.Results:①The macrophages viability was significantly inhibited when the concentration of shikonin was higher than 250 nmol/(P＜0.01).②The osteoclastogenesis was significantly suppressed by differemt dose of shikonin(P＜0.01).③ The expression of the osteoclastic marker genes (TRAP,c-Fos and NFATc 1) were suppressed by addition of shikonin comparing to control group (P＜0.01).④ Shikonin effectively prevented ovariectomy-induced bone loss (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Shikonin suppresses osteoclastogenesis in vitro and ameliorates ovariectomized-induced osteoporosis in mouse model.

Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2017;17(24):4639-4644. doi:10.13241/j.cnki.pmb.2017.24.009

Objective:To analysis the correlation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,OPN and MMP-13 in rabbit model with different degree of osteoarthritis (OA).Methods:Forty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups of 10 each,then we constructed the rabbit model with different degree of osteoarthritis (OA) by different concentrations of papain.The mRNA and protein levels of β-catenin,OPN,MMP-13,type Ⅱ collagen and proteoglycan were detected by Real-Time PCR and ELISA,respectively.Results:We have successfully established OA rabbit model by different concentrations of papain,and these OA rabbits model could be divided into mild,moderate and severe three level by Mankin scoring system,chondrocytes.Compared with the normal control group,the protein levels of β-catenin,OPN,and MMP-13 in the osteoarthritis were significantly increased,while the protein levels of type Ⅱ collagen and proteoglycan were significantly decreased (P＜0.05).With the increasing severity of OA,the results were consistent (P＜0.05).Conclusions:These results indicated that Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway might regulate the expression of OPN,thereby affecting the expression of MMP-13,and ultimately have an impact on the occurrence ofosteoarthritis.

Progress in Modern Biomedicine.2017;17(24):4621-4625. doi:10.13241/j.cnki.pmb.2017.24.005

Objective:To investigate the potential pro-apoptotic activity of arsenic trioxide (ATO) in human leukemia HL-60 cells,as well as the potential mechanism with focus on mitochondrial pathway.Methods:After treatment with different concentrations of ATO (1 μg/mL,5 μg/mL or 10 μg/mL) for 24 h,apoptotic cell death was detected by flow cytometry,oxidative stress was determined by measuring MDA and GSH levels,the expression of apoptotic factors was detected by western blot,and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was determined by immunofluorescence staining.Results:ATO at the concentrations of 5 μg/mL or 10 μg/mL induces apoptotic cell death and increases oxidative stress in human leukemia HL-60 cells.ATO significantly increases the expression of pro-apoptotic factors (Bax and Caspase-3),whereas decreases the expression of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2.Compared with the control group,ATO treatment significantly decreases the MMP level in HL-60 ceils.Conclusions:Arsenic trioxide induces apoptotic cell death through mitochondrial pathway in human leukemia HL-60 cells.
