ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the role of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) in ischemia-reperfusion induced lung injury, and clarify the potential molecular mechanism.Methods Fifty mice of C57BL/6J were randomly divided into five groups, 10 mice in each group, including Sham operation group(sham group),ischemia/reperfusion group (I/R group), I/R +PBS+Lipofectamine group(I/R+PBS+Lipo group) , I/R+scramble siRNA group( I/R+siRNASCR group) , I/R+CHOPsiRNA group( I/R+siRNACHOP group).The content of total lung water (TLW), wet-to-dry weight ratio (W/D) of lung and index of quantitative assessment of histologic lung injury (IQA) were detected, CHOP mRNA and protein expression were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.Results Compared with Sham group, W/D, TLW and IQA were significantly elevated in I/R group,I/R+PBS+Lipo group and I/R+siRNASCR group (P<0.05).Moreover, the W/D,TLW and IQA reduced with CHOP-siRNA treatment, respectively(P<0.01).Compared with Sham group, CHOP mRNA and protein expressions were significantly elevated in I/R group,I/R+PBS+Lipo group and I/R+siRNASCR group, Moreover, the CHOP mRNA and protein expressions reduced with CHOP-siRNA treatment, respectively(P<0.01). Conclusion I/R could cause excessive unfolded protein response in lung tissue, and induce apoptosis by CHOP signal pathway, damage lung tissue. The inhibition of CHOP pathway could alleviate lung ischemia-reperfusion injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical effect of therapy of budesonide/formoterol powder for inhalation in treatment of adult with bronchial asthma.Methods 90 cases with bronchial asthma and were divided into observation group and control group randomly from February 2014 to February 2015.45 cases in each group.Control group was treated with budesonide inhalants +formoterol inhalants, observation group was given budesonide/formoterol powder inhalation.Changes of related indicators were followed up and recorded.Results After treatment, IL-5, IL-12 and IFN-γwere (60.2 ±9.7)pg/mL,(31.4 ±3.1)pg/mL,(1.6 ±0.2) ng/mL of observation group were better than control group (72.8 ±10.7)pg/mL,(38.5 ± 5.6)pg/mL,(2.3 ±0.3) ng/mL (P<0.05).After treatment,total effective rate in observation group was 68.9%, which was better than control group (48.9%)(P<0.05).Conclusion Clinical effect of budesonide/formoterol powder for inhalation in treatment of patients with bronchial asthma is accurate, and there is no obvious adverse reaction.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the genetic diversity and structure of Dendrobium huoshanense, a (CT)n enriched microsatellite library was constructed using a magnetic beads enrichment procedure.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The 3'-biotinylated oligonucleotide probe was used to hybridize with the digested D. huoshanense genomic DNA fragments whose both ends were ligated with adaptors. The hybridized complex was then combined with the streptavidin-coated magnetic beads. The captured microsatellite fragments were eluted, collected and cloned into pMD19-T vector. The recombinant plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli DH5alpha competent cells. The clones that yielded two or more bands contained microsatellite fractions. Positive clones were screened and sequenced. Thirty pairs of primers were designed and synthesized. Polymorphism at each locus was determined using 24 individuals from a natural population from Huoshan county town in Anhui province.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Twelve polymorphic microsatellite loci from the microsatellite-enriched genomic library were newly developed across 24 D. huoshanense individuals. In total, 65 alleles were identified, and the number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 8. The mean observed and expected heterozygosities were 0.500 and 0.638, respectively. Two loci significantly deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P<0.05), which could be due to the presence of null alleles. Furthermore, three of twelve loci showed significant linkage disequilibrium (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>These results suggest that the identified polymorphic microsatellite markers will be useful in population genetic studies of D. huoshanense.</p>
