Role of ATP-sensitive potassium channels in inhibitory effect of hydrogen sulfide on high glucose-induced inflammation mediated by necroptosis in H9c2 cardiac cells / 中国病理生理杂志

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the role of ATP-sensitive potassium ( KATP ) channels in the inhibitory effect of hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S) on high glucose ( HG)-induced inflammation mediated by necroptosis in H 9c2 cardiac cells. METHODS:The expression levels of receptor-interacting protein 3 ( RIP3; an indicator of necroptosis ) and cyclooxyge-nase-2 (COX-2) were determined by Western blot.The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α) were detected by ELISA .RESULTS:After H9c2 cardiac cells were treated with 35 mmol/L glucose ( HG) for 24 h, the expression of RIP3 was significantly increased .Pre-treatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L diazoxide ( DZ; a KATP channel opener) or 400 μmol/L NaHS (a donor of H2S) for 30 min considerably blocked the up-regulation of RIP3 induced by HG.Moreover, pre-treatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L 5-hydroxydecanoic acid (5-HD; a KATP channel blocker) attenuated the inhibitory effect of NaHS on HG-induced up-regulation of RIP3.On the other hand, co-treatment of the cells with 100μmol/L necrostatin-1 ( a specific inhibitor of necroptosis ) or pre-treatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L DZ or 400 μmol/L NaHS attenuated HG-induced inflammatory responses , evidenced by decreases in the expression of COX-2 and secretion levels of IL-1βand TNF-α.However , pre-treatment of the cells with 100 μmol/L 5-HD significantly attenuated the above anti-inflammatory effects of NaHS.CONCLUSION:KATP channels play an important role in the inhib-itory effect of H2 S on HG-induced inflammation mediated by necroptosis in H 9c2 cardiac cells.

Codon usage bias in the straw mushroom Volvariella volvacea / 生物工程学报

We analyzed the whole genome coding sequence of Volvariella volvacea to study the pattern utilization of codons by Codon W 1.4.2. As results, 24 optimal codons were identified. Moreover, the frequency of codons usage was calculated by CUSP program. We compared the frequency of codons usage of V. volvacea with other organisms including 6 modal value species (Homo sapiens, Saccharomys cerevisiae, Arabidopsis thalian, Mus musculus, Danio rerio and Drosophila melanogaster) and 4 edible fungi (Coprinopsis cinerea, Agaricus bisporus, Lentinula edodes and Pleurotus ostreatus). We found that there were less differences in 3 edible fungi (excluding Pleurotus ostreatus) than 6 modal value species, comparing with the frequency of codons usage of V. volvacea. With software SPSS16.0, cluster analysis which showed differences in the size of codon bias, reflects the evolutionary relationships between species, which can be used as a reference of evolutionary relationships of species. This was the first time for analysis the codon preference among the whole coding sequences of edible fungi, serving as theoretical basis to apply genetic engineering of V. volvacea.

Progress in the fragment-based drug discovery / 药学学报

As an extension of the structure-based drug discovery, fragment-based drug discovery is matured increasingly, and plays an important role in drug development. Fragments in a small library, with lower molecular mass and high "ligand efficiency", are detected by SPR, MS, NMR, X-ray crystallography technologies and other biophysical methods. Then they are considered as starting points for chemical optimization with the guidance of structural biology methods to get good "drug-like" lead and candidate compounds. In this article, we reviewed the current progress of fragment-based drug discovery and detailed a number of examples to illustrate the novel strategies.
