RESUMEN

Rehmannia glutinosa is one of the commonly used Chinese herbal medicines, which has activities of heat-clearing,blood-cooling, Yin-nourishing, and body fluid-promoting. Iridoid glycosides are the main bioactive in R. glutinosa. Iridoid oxidase is a key rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of iridoid glycosides. In this study, an iridoid oxidase gene Rg IO was screened based on the transcriptome data, followed by bioinformatics analysis, expression characteristic detection, and subcellular localization analysis. The results show that the coding region of Rg IO is 1 536 bp, with 511 amino acids encoded, and the molecular weight is about 58 258. 01. The protein sequence of Rg IO contains the conserved domains and motifs of cytochrome P450 oxidases. Rg IO has the highest sequence identities with its ortholog proteins in Striga asiatica, Striga hermonthica, and Centranthera grandiflora and has good sequence identities(77. 28%) with Catharanthus roseus Cr IO. Rg IO shows specific expression in the leaf of R. glutinosa. In response to MeJA induction, the expression of MeJA in leaves and roots after treatment increases by 3. 15 and 1. 3 times at 3 h and 6 h,respectively. The result of subcellular localization shows that Rg IO is distributed in the endoplasmic reticulum. Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression of Rg IO gene in leaves of R. glutinosa makes the content of catalpol increase by 0. 82 times compared with the transient expression of the empty vector. This study provides a key target gene for the molecular regulation and biosynthesis of catalpol in R. glutinosa and lays a foundation for revealing the complete biosynthetic pathway of catalpol.

RESUMEN

MYB transcription factors of plants play important roles in flavonoid synthesis, aroma regulation, floral organ morphogenesis, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Cymbidium ensifolium is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to Orchidaceae, with special flower colors and high ornamental value. In this study, a total of 136 CeMYB transcription factors were identified from the genome of C. ensifolium, including 27 1R-MYBs, 102 R2R3-MYBs, 2 3R-MYBs, 2 4R-MYBs, and 3 atypical MYBs. Through phylogenetic analysis in combination with MYB in Arabidopsis thaliana, 20 clusters were obtained, indicating that these CeMYBs may have a variety of biological functions. The 136 CeMYBs were distributed on 18 chromosomes, and the conserved domain analysis showed that they harbored typical amino acid sequence repeats. The motif prediction revealed that multiple conserved elements were mostly located in the N-terminal of CeMYBs, suggesting their functions to be relatively conserved. CeMYBs harbored introns ranging from 0 to 13 and contained a large number of stress- and hormone-responsive cis-acting elements in the promoter regions. The subcellular localization prediction demonstrated that most of CeMYBs were positioned in the nucleus. The analysis of the CeMYBs expression based on transcriptome data showed that CeMYB52, and CeMYB104 of the S6 subfamily may be the key genes leading to flower color variation. The results lay a foundation for the study of MYB transcription factors of C. ensifolium and provide valuable information for further investigations of the potential function of MYB genes in the process of anthocyanin biosynthesis.

RESUMEN

The pregnane X receptor (PXR) plays a critical role in the regulation of human cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) gene. In this study, we investigated the effect of an array of compounds isolated from Chinese herbal medicines on the activity of PXR using a luciferase reporter gene assay in transiently transfected HepG2 and Huh7 cells and on the expression of PXR and CYP3A4 in LS174T cells. Furthermore, molecular docking was performed to investigate the binding modes of herbal compounds with PXR. Praeruptorin A and C, salvianolic acid B, sodium danshensu, protocatechuic aldehyde, cryptotanshinone, emodin, morin, and tanshinone IIA significantly transactivated the CYP3A4 reporter gene construct in either HepG2 or Huh7 cells. The PXR mRNA expression in LS174T cells was significantly induced by physcion, protocatechuic aldehyde, salvianolic acid B, and sodium danshensu. However, epifriedelanol, morin, praeruptorin D, mulberroside A, tanshinone I, and tanshinone IIA significantly down-regulated the expression of PXR mRNA in LS174T cells. All the herbal compounds tested can be readily docked into the ligand-binding cavity of PXR mainly through hydrogen bond and aromatic interactions with Ser247, Gln285, His407, and Arg401. These findings suggest that herbal medicines can significantly regulate PXR and CYP3A4 and this has important implication in herb-drug interactions.

RESUMEN

1. The multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) belong to the ATP-binding cassette superfamily (ABCC family) of transporters that are expressed differentially in the liver, kidney, intestine and blood-brain barrier. There are nine human MRPs that transport a structurally diverse array of endo- and xenobiotics as well as their conjugates. 2. Multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 can be distinguished from MRP2 and MRP3 by its higher affinity for leukotriene C(4). Unlike MRP1, MRP2 functions in the extrusion of endogenous organic anions, such as bilirubin glucuronide and certain anticancer agents. In addition to the transport of glutathione and glucuronate conjugates, MRP3 has the additional capability of mediating the transport of monoanionic bile acids. 3. Both MRP4 and MRP5 are able to mediate the transport of cyclic nucleotides and confer resistance to certain antiviral and anticancer nucleotide analogues. Hereditary deficiency of MRP6 results in pseudoxanthoma elasticum. In the body, MRP6 is involved in the transport of glutathione conjugates and the cyclic pentapeptide BQ123. 4. Various MRPs show considerable differences in tissue distribution, substrate specificity and proposed physiological function. These proteins play a role in drug disposition and excretion and thus are implicated in drug toxicity and drug interactions. Increased efflux of natural product anticancer drugs and other anticancer agents mediated by MRPs from cancer cells is associated with tumour resistance. 5. A better understanding of the function and regulating mechanisms of MRPs could help minimize and avoid drug toxicity and unfavourable drug-drug interactions, as well as help overcome drug resistance.

RESUMEN

The effects of oenothein B(OEB) on the proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration of breast cancer MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells were investigated by cell culture in vitro, network pharmacology, and molecular docking. In vitro cell experiments revealed that OEB inhibited the proliferation and colony formation ability, and promoted the apoptosis and formation of apoptotic bodies in breast cancer cells, as well as inhibited the invasion and migration of breast cancer cells. The targets of OEB were obtained using SwissTargetPrediction database and breast cancer targets were obtained from GeneCards. The targets of OEB and breast cancer were entered separately in Venny 2.1 software to obtain the Venn diagram of common targets of OEB and breast cancer. The common targets of OEB and breast cancer were input into STRING database to construct a protein-protein interaction(PPI) network, which was entered into Cytoscape 3.7.2 software for network topology analysis. Key targets were screened according to protein association strength, and analyzed for KEGG pathway enrichment. Molecular docking of OEB to key targets using AutoDock software revealed that OEB stably bound to the active pocket of P53, while OEB promoted the expression of P53 protein. MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell viability and migration ability increased after silencing P53, and this change was reversed after treatment with OEB. Therefore, this study showed that OEB inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, and promoted the apoptosis of breast cancer MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, which may be related to the targeted regulation of P53.

RESUMEN

Objective: To explore the effect of csn2 gene deficiency on starvation tolerance and extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) synthesis in an oligotrophic environment of Streptococcus mutans (Sm). Methods: The csn2 gene deletion strains and complementary strains of Sm were cultivated and then an oligotrophic growth environment for Sm growth by setting different concentration gradient media were created. Cell growth in oligotrophic environment was detected by growth curve. Biofilm volume was measured by crystalline violet staining. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laser confocal microscope were performed to observe the biofilm structure of Sm. The synthesis of EPS was measured by the anthrone-sulfuric acid method. The expression of genes related to EPS synthesis was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results: The growth curve results showed that the deletion of csn2 gene inhibited the growth of Sm under starvation stress. Furthermore, the results of laser confocal microscope showed that the biofilm EPS/bacteria ratios produced by the wild-type strain, csn2 gene-deficient strain and complement strains under nutrient sufficient culture conditions were 0.44±0.07, 1.05±0.13 and 0.57±0.08 respectively, while the ratios of EPS/bacteria in an oligotrophic environment were 0.93±0.24, 3.05±0.21 and 1.32±0.46 respectively, indicating that the deletion of csn2 gene enhanced the ability of extracellular polysaccharide synthesis of Sm in the oligotrophic environment. The expression levels of EPS synthesis-related genes gtfB and gtfC were up-regulated by 2.5 fold and 1.8 fold respectively and the expression level of gtfD was down-regulated by two-thirds. Conclusions: The csn2 gene deficiency showed multiple effects on the physiological functions and virulence characteristics of Sm, including starvation tolerance and EPS synthesis. These changes might be related to the shift of the complex regulative network caused by csn2 gene deletion.

RESUMEN

To study the combined effects of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) and ultraviolet radiation (UV) on marine green algae Ulva prolifera under high (160 Μmol·m-2·s-1) and low (70 Μmol·m-2·s-1) light intensities, the growth, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, photosynthetic rate of oxygen, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, soluble polysaccharide and soluble protein contents were investigated after they grew with or without ultraviolet (UV, 3.2 W·m-2) radiation in the presence or absence of SA (10 Μg·mL-1) for three days. The treatments included control group (CK), SA, UV and UV+SA treatments. Results showed that under the low light intensity without UV condition, the relative growth rate was enhanced, Chl a and soluble protein contents were decreased by SA. Under the high light intensity without UV condition, the relative growth rate was decreased, Chl a content, respiratory rate, photosynthetic rate of oxygen, soluble polysaccharide and soluble protein contents were enhanced by SA. Under the high light intensity with UV condition, the relative growth rate, Chl a and soluble polysaccharide contents were enhanced by UV+SA. Additionally, under the low light intensity with UV condition, compared to UV treatment, the maximum photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) and soluble protein contents were respectively increased by 139.8% and 32.2% under the UV+SA treatment. In conclusion, SA reduced the inhibitory effects of U. prolifera induced by UV, and the effects were more significant under the high light intensity.

RESUMEN

In order to study the effects of salicylic acid on the growth and physiological performance of Ulva prolifera with different proliferative styles, we took U. prolifera from vegetative (VU) and spore proliferative cells (SU) as materials, and cultured them under different salicylic acid concentrations to investigate their growth rate, chlorophyll fluorescence, SOD and soluble protein content. The results showed that the growth of both VU and SU was promoted by low concentration of salicy-lic acid, especially for VU. Under 0.2 Μg·mL-1 salicylic acid treatment, VU showed the highest relative growth rate of 21.0%, and the maximum photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) increased by 9.8% compared with SU. Additionally, salicylic acid affected the SOD activity significantly, and the enzyme activity of VU increased by 52.0% and 198.6% under 0.2 and 0.5 Μg·mL- 1 salicylic acid treatment, and that of SU increased by 54.1% and 38.0%, respectively. Salicylic acid also promoted the relative electron transfer rate (rETR), photosynthesis and protein content of both VU and SU. In conclusion, salicylic acid benefited the growth of two kinds of U. prolifera, especially for VU.

RESUMEN

In order to study the combined effects of brassinosteroids and salinity on the growth and physiological performance of Ulva prolifera under low temperature condition, we investigated the growth, chlorophyll content, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, soluble protein and carbohydrate contents in this algae, which was grown under three salinity in the presence or absence of 24-epibrassinolide. The results showed that, compared to control salinity (25) treatment, the growth rate of U. prolifera was enhanced by 45.9% under the moderate hyposaline condition (10), but decreased under low salinity (5) treatment, which showed high contents of chlorophyll and soluble protein. However, the presence of EBR (0.2 mg·L-1) significantly reduced the growth of U. prolifera, especially under the control salinity (25) treatment, under which the fresh mass decreased and more spores were released. Additionally, the effective quantum yield (Fv'/Fm'), the activity of SOD and the content of soluble carbohydrate also decreased, but the soluble protein content increased under the control salinity treatment in the presence of EBR. In conclusion, moderatehypo-saline condition could be used to enhance the growth of U. prolifera at 15 ℃, and under normal salinity (25), the EBR could be used to promote the release of spores and produce more materials for mass production of U. prolifera.

RESUMEN

Purpose@#Ischemic brain injury results in high mortality and serious neurologic morbidity. Here, we explored the role of SNHG15 in modulating neuronal damage and microglial inflammation after ischemia stroke. @*Materials and Methods@#The hypoxia/ischemia models were induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice and oxygenglucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) in vitro. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot were conducted to determine the levels of SNHG15, miR-302a-3p, and STAT1/NF-κB. Moreover, gain- or loss-of functional assays of SNHG15 and miR-302a-3p were conducted. MTT assay was used to evaluate the viability of HT22 cells, and the apoptotic level was determined by flow cytometry. Furthermore, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to detect oxidative stress and inflammatory mediators in the ischemia cortex and OGD/R-treated BV2 microglia. @*Results@#The SNHG15 and STAT1/NF-κB pathways were both distinctly up-regulated, while miR-302a-3p was notably down-regulated in the ischemia cortex. Additionally, overexpressing SNHG15 dramatically enhanced OGD/R-mediated neuronal apoptosis as well as the expression of oxidative stress and inflammation factors from microglia. In contrast, knocking down SNHG15 or overexpressing miR-302a-3p relieved OGD/R-mediated neuronal apoptosis and microglial activation. Moreover, the rescue experiment testified that overexpressing miR-302a-3p also attenuated SNHG15 up-regulation-induced effects. In terms of the mechanisms, SNHG15 sponged miR-302a-3p and activated STAT1/NF-κB as a competitive endogenous RNA, while miR-302a-3p targeted STAT1 and negatively regulated the STAT1/NF-κB pathway. @*Conclusion@#SNHG15 was up-regulated in the hypoxia/ischemia mouse or cell model. The inhibition of SNHG15 ameliorates ischemia/hypoxia-induced neuronal damage and microglial inflammation by regulating the miR-302a-3p/STAT1/NF-κB pathway.

RESUMEN

Objective: To explore the effect and mechanism of genistein on oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells. Method: Lipid accumulation model in HepG2 cells was induced by different concentrations of oleic acid for 24 h, and 12.5, 25, 50 μmol·L-1genistein and oleic acid acted on cells for 24 h. Cell viability was determined by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Double staining with Nile red and DAPI was used to observe the intracellular lipid droplets. Intracellular triglyceride (TG) content was determined by kit. The protein expression levels of triglyceride lipase(ATGL),hormone-sensitive fatty acid(HSL),phosphorylation HSL(p-HSL),silent information regulator 1(STRT1),peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α(PPARα),carnitine palmityl transferase 1(CPT-1) in oleic acid-induced HepG2 cells were detected by Western blot. Result: 0.5 mmol·L-1 oleic acid and 12.5, 25, 50 μmol·L-1 genistein had no significant effect on cell viability after treated cells for 24 h. Compared with normal group, the TG content and lipid droplets in oleic acid-induced HepG2 cells was significantly increased (PPPPα, and CPT-1 compared with model group (PPConclusion: Genistein can significantly improve the lipid accumulation in oleic acid-induced HepG2 cells, and its mechanism may be related to up-regulating the protein expression levels of ATGL, p-HSL/HSL, SIRT1, PPARα, CPT-1, and thus promoting lipid hydrolysis and oxidative metabolism.

RESUMEN

Objectives To design an objective and structured evaluation system for the clinical competence of orthopedic postgraduates in the diagnosis and treatment of distal radius fractures, and to ana-lyze its reliability and validity. Methods 28 orthopaedic postgraduates representing six levels of surgical training were tested for competence in performing surgical approach for distal radius fracture on cadaver specimens during which four measures were used to assess competency: examination of basic theory based on network item bank, objective structured operation assessment,overall assessment and operation examina-tion results. In addition, the time for completion of the surgery was also recorded. Each assessment tool was correlated with the others as well as with the resident’s level of training. Results There was a significant correlation between the seniority of candidates and the score of theoretical examination (F=6.193, P=0.000), the score of structured operation examination (F=6.374, P=0.002), the score of overall assessment (F=2.321, P=0.030), and the passing rate of final operation examination (F=36.300, P=0.000). No significant differ- ences were found between seniority and time to completion of the surgical approach exposure (F=2.282, P<0.073). Conclusions The results of the present study suggested that both theoretical examination and cadaver testing discriminate between novice and accomplished postgraduates. However, although the theo-retical test scores could predict the operational test results, but the theoretical results can not guarantee excellent operational skills.

RESUMEN

Hemophilia A (Hemophilia A, HA) is an X-linked recessive hereditary coagulation function disorder, the deficiency and dysfunction of blood coagulation were caused by the mutations of gene encoding clotting factor VIII. The treatment of hemophilia A still depends on the replacement therapy with blood coagulation factor. However, the repeated infusion of clotting factor will produce the neutralizing antibody against FVIII, then resulting in one of the serious complications. The reports on the incidence of inhibitor are different at home and abroad. Due to diverse factors, the inhibitors of hemophilia A clotting factor mainly can be divided into genetic and environmental factors, In this review, the inhibitors of hemophilia A clotting factor and their risk factors are briefly summarized.

Objective To study the role of arrestin domain-containing protein 4( ARRDC4) in regulation of enterovirus 71(EV71) triggered innate IL-6 production and the underlying mechanism .Methods THP-1-derived macrophages (t-M?) were transfected with ARRDC4 specific siRNA and negative control siRNA .The expression and production of IL-6, replication and virus titer of EV71, and the activation of signaling pathway adaptors were analyzed with quantitative real -time PCR, ELISA and Western blot.Results Upon EV71 infection, ARRDC4 was upregulated.ARRDC4 silencing could enhance mRNA expression and production of IL-6, thus increasing the replication and virus titer of EV71.In ARRDC4 silenced t-M?, the activation of p-65,IκBα,ERK,JNK and p38 was promoted.Conclusion ARRDC4 promotes EV71-t riggered IL-6 production by enhancing the activation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathway to inhibit EV71 infection, contributing to positive regulation of anti-EV71 innate immune responses .

RESUMEN

Objective To observe the effect of low temperature compound propofol on the changes of apoptosis protein Caspase-3,autophagy-related proteins Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ and thier changes of hippocampal neurons.Methods The rats were randomly divided into blank control group (Group A),propofol group at low temperature (Group B) and chloral hydrate group at low temperature (Group C),Group B and C were treated with low temperature for 30 min.Then,each group was subjected to cardiac perfusion and decapitated brain to prepare rat hippocampal neuronal tissue samples.The expression of Caspase-3 was detected by immunohistochemistry,Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ protein was detected by immunoblotting.The ultrastructural changes of neurons were observed by transmission electron microscopy.Results The expression of Caspase-3,Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ protein in each group were statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The results of transmission electron microscopy showed that the neurons in group B and C were changed in different degrees,especially in group C neuronal apoptosis is obvious.Conclusion Autophagy and apoptosis in existence still exist in low temperature condition,while propofol can reduce this damage and have better protective effect on neurons.
