ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides on gene expression profile of HUVEC. METHODS： HUVEC was selected as objects. MTS method was used to detect the effects of different doses of D. officinale polysaccharides （50， 100， 200， 400， 800 μg/mL） on the proliferation activity of HUVEC. The growth inhibitory concentration of 30％ cells （IC30） was calculated to screen the dose of follow-up tests. cDNA microarray assay was used to detect the changes of gene expression profile for HUVEC after treated with D. officinale polysaccharides for 24 h， so as to screen differentially expressed genes. GO enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed for top 5 differentially expressed genes by using DAVID bioinformatics resource database. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （qRT-PCR） was used to validate the results of microarray detection with immunity-related differentially expressed genes as objects. RESULTS： After treated with 100， 200， 400， 800 μg/mL D. officinale polysaccharides， survival rate of HUVEC were decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. IC30 value was 408 μg/mL. After treated with 400 μg/mL （by IC30） D. officinale polysaccharides， there were 91 differentially expressed genes in HUVEC cells， of which 84 were up-regulated and 7 were down-regulated. Top 5 genes of up-regulated and down- regulated expression were SELE， CCL2， CXCL6， IL8， ICAM1 as well as VWCE， CPT1A， CLU， CCL14， CINS4， which may be mainly associated with immune conditions and inflammatory responses. The differentially expressed genes mainly distributed in extracellular domain， and were enriched in biological processes such as production and response of cytokines and stimulus response， and played molecular functions such as chemokine and its receptor activity. The up-regulated genes as SELE， ICAM1 and CXCL2 were mainly enriched in TNF signaling pathway， influenza A （H1N1）， herpes simplex virus infection and other pathways. The down-regulated gene CCL14 was mainly enriched in chemokine signaling pathway. Results of qRT-PCR validation tests showed that relative expression of ICAM1 was increased significantly， while that of CCL14 was decreased significantly （P＜0.05）， which was in agreement with microarray detection results. CONCLUSIONS： After treated with D. officinale polysaccharides， the expression of 91 genes in HUVEC cells are different significantly， mainly being up-regulated. The differentially expressed genes may participate in immune regulation through TNF signaling pathway， influenza A （H1N1） and herpes simplex virus infection.

ABSTRACT
Background Different depthes or distances are prompted with many visual cues on the flat screen.Which kind of depth cues plays a major role in the accommodation of human eyes,in addition,whether this effect exists in the different distance are still below understood.Objective This study was to research the effect of the monocular space depth perception on accommodative response at different distances,and to analyze the effect of linear perspective and size-constancy perceptual depth cues on the level and amplitude of accommodative fluctation.Methods Four groups of visual targets were designed by FLASH software and placed at the front of eyes with the distance of 50 cm or 33.3 cm,representing static change from far to near and dynamic change from far to near,from near to far respectively.Twenty-six healthy volunteers aged 22-26 years were included in this study,with the spherical power of (-4.06± 1.99) D and cylindrical power of (-0.38±0.41) D under the informed consent.The accommodative response and accommodative fluctuations during monocularly watching the targets were recorded at 5 times/second by Grand Seiko WAM 5500 automatic infrared refractor.This study was approved by Ethic Committee of Wenzhou Medical University,and written informed consent was obtained from each subject before entering the study group.Results At the distance of 50 cm,the accommodative response caused by the depth perception of near was (1.52±0.46) D,the one of distance was (1.37±0.46) D,with a significant difference of 0.15 D under the combined effect of linear perspective and size-constancy (P =0.016).The accommodative response caused by the depth perception of big car was (1.43 ± 0.35) D,and the one of small car was (1.43 ± 0.36) D,without statistically significant difference under the effect of size-constancy alone (P =0.467).At the distance of 33.3 cm,the accommodative response caused by the depth perception of near was (2.40±0.53)D,and the one of distance was (2.35 ±0.51) D,without significant difference under the combined effect of linear perspective and size-constancy (P=0.379).The accommodative response caused by the depth perception of big car was (2.38±0.48)D,the one of small car was (2.39±0.52)D,without statistically significant difference under the effect of size-constancy alone (P =0.820).In addition,the total curve of accommodative microfluctuation showed apparent fluctuation periodically caused by the distance perception involving linear perspective only.Conclusions Monocular space depth perception has some impacts on the accommodative response at certain distance.Linear perspective,which is one of the depth cues of space perception,plays a major role in the accommodative response.Compared with the size-constancy,linear perspective can provide depth perception at higher level.The size-constancy has a little or contrast impact to the accommodation,because it depends on the assistance from other depth cues like linear perspective.
