Objective To investigate the effects of indirubatin derivative E804 on proliferation and migration of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)A549 cells,and to elucidate the possible mechanism of Nrf2-HO-1/GPX4 pathway.Methods Lung cancer A549 cells were used as the cell model.The proliferation and migration of differ-ent specific inhibitors(Nec-1,CQ,Z-VAD,DFO,Fer-1 and Lip-1)in 0,10 μmol/L E804 and 10 μmol/L E804+groups were observed by MTT and cell scratch assay.The contents of reactive oxygen species(ROS)were de-tected by DCFH-DA fluorescence probe method,the contents of Fe2+were detected by colorimetric method,the contents of reduced glutathione(GSH)were detected by spectrophotometry,and the contents of malondialdehyde(MDA)were detected by micromethod.The expression levels of SLC7A11,Transferrin,GPX4,SLC40A1,Nrf2 and HO-1 were detected by Western blot in cells of 0,2.5,5 and 10 μmol/L E804 groups.Results Compared with the control group(0 μmol/L E804),2.5,5 and 10 μmol/L E804 significantly increased intracellular ROS,Fe2+and MDA levels,and decreased intracellular GSH content(P＜0.01).Meanwhile,the expression levels of SLC7A11,GPX4,SLC40A1,Nrf2 and HO-1 significantly decreased(P＜0.01),and the expression level of Transferrin increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the 10 μmol/L E804 group alone,the apoptosis inhibitor(Z-VAD)group and the ferroptosis inhibitor(DFO,Fer-1 and Lip-1)group could significantly reverse the inhibition of proliferation and migration of A549 cells by 10 μmol/L E804(P＜0.01).Conclution E804 can induce ferrop-tosis and inhibit the proliferation and migration of A549 cells,which may be related to the inhibition of Nrf2-HO-1/GPX4 pathway.

The gene encoding the VP28 envelope protein of White spot syndrome virus (WSSV)was cloned into expression vector pET-30a and transformed into the Escherichia coli strain BL21.After induction,the recombinant VP28 (rVP28) protein was purified and then used to immunize Balb/c mice for monoclonal antibody (MAb) production.It was observed by immuno-electron microscopy the MAbs specific to rVP28 could recognize native VP28 target epitopes of WSSV and dot-blot analysis was used to detect natural WSSV infection.Competitive PCR showed that the viral level was approximately 104 copies/mg tissue in the dilution of gill homogenate of WSSV-infected crayfish at the detection limit of dot-blot assay.Our results suggest that dot-blot analysis with anti-rVP28 MAb could rapidly and sensitively detect WSSV at the early stages of WSSV infection.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of using anti-sense RNA against classⅡmajor histocompatibility complex(MHCⅡ)transactivator(CⅡTA),which might regulate MHCⅡexpression,to suppress the relative immune response.Methods Stable transfectants of dermal fibroblasts with pDarⅡ(pDarⅡ-D)were tested for the expression of classic MHCⅡ(HLA-DR,-DP,-DQ)antigens induced with recombinant human interferon-gamma(IFN-?).mRNA abundance of CⅡTA,and classic MHCⅡwas mea-sured by RT-PCR.IL-2mRNA expressed in T cells,stimulated by transfected dermal fibroblasts,was de-termined by mixed lymphocyte reaction.Results When induced with IFN-?,the expression of HLA-DR and-DP antigens on pDarⅡ-D was reduced by95.63%and87.89%,respectively.Meanwhile,the mRNA contents of CⅡTA and classic MHCⅡwere decreased significantly(P
