The pathogenesis of autoimmune disease is complex, lacking in specific markers and new therapeutic targets. Traditional Chinese medicine (T C M) is effective in treating chronic complex diseases such as autoimmune diseases, but the specific mechanism of action remains unclear. The core idea of network pharmacology has much in common with the overall philosophy of TCM. As a new discipline, it provides a new research mode for TCM to transform from empirical medicine to evidence-based medicine. Network pharmacology has been applied in many fields of research, but its application in a certain kind of disease is rarely reviewed. Through searching domestic and foreign literature, this paper reviews the application of network pharmacology in the prevention and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus with traditional Chinese medicine and identification of related biological targets.

Objective To evaluate the effects of lentivirus-delivered short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) E7 gene on the expression of 4 kinds of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs),including DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L,in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell line SiHa.Methods The recombinant plasmid containing HPV16 E7 gene-targeting shRNA was constructed firstly.Then,the BLOCK-iTTM lentiviral RNAi expression system kit was used to package the lentiviral vector,which was transfected into 293T cells.The lentivirus-containing supernatants were collected at 48 and 72 hours after transfection.The SiHa cells were divided into 3 groups to be cultured with lentiviral supernatant containing HPV16 E7 gene-targeting shRNA recombinant plasmids mixed with complete medium at a ratio of 1:1 (shRNA group),lentiviral supernatant containing empty plasmids mixed with complete medium at a ratio of 1:1 (negative control group),and complete medium alone (blank control group),respectively.Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to measure mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and 4 kinds of DNMTs in the above 3 groups at 0,48,96 hours after infection,and Western blot analysis to determine protein expression of the 4 DNMTs at 48,96 hours after infection.Results There were no significant differences in the mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and the 4 DNMTs among the shRNA group,negative control group and blank control group at 0 hour after infection (all P > 0.05).At 48,96 hours after infection,the mRNA expression of HPV16 E7 and the 4 DNMTs decreased significantly in the shRNA group compared with the negative control group and blank control group (all P < 0.05),but did not differ between the negative control group and blank control group (all P > 0.05).Additionally,E7,DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L gene-silencing efficiencies in the shRNA group were 71.13%,50.53%,13.72%,46.27% and 17.92% at 48 hours,and 83.50%,74.2%,47.8%,64.7% and 48.9% at 96 hours after infection,respectively.Western blot analysis showed that the protein expression of the 4 DNMTs significantly decreased in the shRNA group compared with the negative control group and blank control group at 48,96 hours after infection (all P < 0.01).Moreover,the protein expression of DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L in the shRNA group gradually decreased over time,and was inhibited by 84%,37.2%,59.8% and 49.3% at 48 hours respectively,and by 73.1%,68.7%,55.5% and 65.5% at 96 hours after infection respectively.Conclusion Targeted silencing of E7 gene in HPV16-positive SiHa cells can interfere with the mRNA and protein expression of DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3B and DNMT3L.
摘要
The molecular mechanism of DNA damage induced by hydroquinone (HQ) remains unclear. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) usually works as a DNA damage sensor, and hence, it is possible that PARP-1 is involved in the DNA damage response induced by HQ. In TK6 cells treated with HQ, PARP activity as well as the expression of apoptosis antagonizing transcription factor (AATF), PARP-1, and phosphorylated H2AX (γ-H2AX) were maximum at 0.5 h, 6 h, 3 h, and 3 h, respectively. To explore the detailed mechanisms underlying the prompt DNA repair reaction, the above indicators were investigated in PARP-1-silenced cells. PARP activity and expression of AATF and PARP-1 decreased to 36%, 32%, and 33%, respectively, in the cells; however, γ-H2AX expression increased to 265%. Co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) assays were employed to determine whether PARP-1 and AATF formed protein complexes. The interaction between these proteins together with the results from IP assays and confocal microscopy indicated that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) regulated AATF expression. In conclusion, PARP-1 was involved in the DNA damage repair induced by HQ via increasing the accumulation of AATF through PARylation.

Objective To evaluate effects of human papilloma virus(HPV)16E7 on expressions of six tumor suppressor genes(including MT1G, NMES1, RRAD, SFRP1, SPARC and TFPI2)in a cell line SiHa, as well as on its proliferation and apoptosis. Methods SiHa cells were divided into two groups to be transfected with a small interfering RNA targeting HPV16E7(E7SiRNA, experimental group)and an empty vehicle(negative control group) respectively, with SiHa cells receiving no treatment serving as the blank control group. After 48 hours, qPCR was performed to measure the mRNA expressions of E7 and six tumor suppressor genes, CCK?8 assay to evaluate cellular proliferative activity, and flow cytometry to assess apoptosis of SiHa cells. Results At 48 hours after the transfection, the experimental group showed significantly decreased E7 mRNA expression(0.25 ± 0.036, P0.05). Conclusion E7 may participate in HPV16?induced cellular malignant transformation by suppressing the mRNA expressions of 6 tumor suppressor genes, including MT1G, NMES1, RRAD, SFRP1, SPAR and TFPI2.
摘要
In China, Monascus spp., a traditional fungus used in fermentation, is used as a natural food additive. Monascus spp. can produce a secondary metabolite, monacolin K namely, which is proven to be a cholesterol-lowering and hypotensive agent. Hence, recently, many researchers have begun focusing on how to increase the production of monacolin K by Monascus purpureus. In the present study, we investigated the effect of the fungal elicitor and the mutagenesis of UV & LiCl on the amount of monacolin K produced by Monascus purpureus. The fugal elicitor, Sporobolomyces huaxiensis, was isolated from tea leaves and its filtrate was added into the culture filtrate of Monascus purpureus during growth to induct the production of monacolin K. The results showed that the highest amount of monacolin K produced by the liquid fermentation was 446.92 mg/mL, which was produced after the fungal elicitor was added to the culture filtrate of Monascus purpureus on the day 4; this amount was approximately 6 times greater than that of the control culture filtrate, whereas the highest amount of monacolin K produced by the mutated strain was 3 times greater than the control culture after the irradiation of UV light in the presence of 1.0 % LiCl in the medium.

To clone KGF-2 gene, get hKGF-2 protein and detemine its activity. The cNDA of human KGF-2 was isolated from fetal lung by RT-PCR and cloned into pBV220 plasmid. The recombinant pBV220-hKGF-2 plasmid was transformed into E. coli (BL21), induced at 42 degrees C for the expression of hKGF-2. Recombinant human KGF-2 was purified from the ultrasonic-treated BL21 by heparin-Sepharose CL-6B treated column chromatography and cation exchange column chromatography. MTT method was used for the determination of its biological activity. SDS-PAGE showed that rhKGF-2 was expressed in E. coli BL21 as soluble protein of approximately 20kD. The rhKGF-2 protein can stimulate the proliferation of NIH3T3 cells significantly from 1 ng/mL to 10 ng/mL. HKGF-2 cDNA wasclned and highly expressed in E. coli BL21 and the purified rhKGF-2 showed the mitogenic activity on NIH3T3 cells.
