ABSTRACT
Aim To study the effect of tetrandrine derivative HL-49 on the conformation and biological ac-tivity of Bloom helicase ( BLM ) , and to explore its antitumor mechanism.Methods The effect of HL-49 on the conformation of BLM helicase was studied by ultra- violet spectroscopy.The effects of HL-49 on DNA binding activity, DNA chain dissociation activity and ATPase activity of HL-49 on BLM DNA helicase were analyzed by fluorescence polarization and malachite green-ammonium phosphomolybdate colorimetric method.Results HL-49, a tetrandrine derivative, indirectly inhibited the ATPase activity of BLM DNA heli- case and DNA unwinding activity by reversible binding with DNA.The results of fluorescence polarization experiments showed that HL-49 could not affect the bind ing activity of BLM DNA helicase to DNA (dsDNA/ss- DNA) , but could bind to DNA in a concentration-de- pendent manner (P < 0.01).With the increase of HL- 49 concentration, the DNA unwinding ability of BLM DNA helicase decreased, and the Kobs value decreased gradually.The results of malachite green-ammonium phosphomolybdate colorimetry showed that HL-49 could significantly inhibit the ATPase activity of BLM DNA helicase.Conclusions HL49 can inhibit the ATPase activity and DNA unwinding activity of BLM DNA helicase by the reversible binding with DNA.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare patient-reported outcomes after implantation of the ZA9003 intraocular lens (IOLs), or the MCX11 ASP IOLs or the spherical IOLs (HQ-201HEP). Methods Prospective nonrandomized controlled trial was used. A total of 105 patients (210 eyes) were divided into three groups according to the type of IOLs: ZA9003 (35 patients, 70 eyes), MCX11 ASP (35 patients, 70 eyes) or HQ-201HEP (35 patients, 70 eyes). The main outcome was scores of Catquest nine-item short-form questionnaire. Additional outcome was best corrected visual acuities, spherical aberration (SA) and total higher-order aberrations (HOAs). Results The global score was significantly lower in the spherical IOL group than the aspherical IOL group of −020 μm SA (P 0.05). Significant differences were also found in question 2, question 5, question 6 and question 8 between the spherical IOLs and the aspherical IOLs. Conclusion Implantation of an aspherical IOL could improve vision-related quality of life compared with a spherical IOL. However, there were no statistically significant differences in vision-related quality of life between aspheric IOLs with different negative spherical aberrations.
