RESUMEN
Objective To study the effect of polysaccharide of Cipangopaludina chinensis on gray human cervix cancer cells(Hela cells) in vitro. Methods Polysaccharide of Cipangopaludina chinensis gray was extracted by water extraction. MTT assay and microscope were used to observe its effect on the growth inhibition of Hela cells at different concentrations of the polysaccharide. Results Polysaccharide of Cipangopaludina chinensis could more significantly inhibit the growth of Hela cells. Conclusion Polysaccharide of Cipangopaludina chinensis could inhibit human cervix cancer cells in vitro
RESUMEN
Aim To study the expression of human VEGF165 cDNA in Pichia pastoris and to obtain high-level expressed recombinant human VEGF165 with good biological activity. Methods Amplifying human VEGF165 cDNA by PCR, after confirmed by DNA sequence analysis, the gene was inserted into the Pichia pastoris expression vector pPIC9K containing AOX1 promoter and α secreting signal peptides, the recombinant expression plasmids pPIC9K/hVEGF165 was constructed and transformed into KM71. The multiple insert transformants were screened， fermented in flasks and induced by 10 mL/L methanol. Results After 4 days of methanol induction, the expressed hVEGF165 reached up to 60％ of total proteins in supernatant by SDS-PAGE. Western blot assay proved the expressed hVEGF165 having good antigenicity and high specificity. The recombinant protein was further purified with Heparin-Sepharose CL6B affinity chromatography, and was proved to have good biological activity in stimulating HUVEC proliferation. Conclusion High-level expression of secreted hVEGF165 has been successfully achieved in Pichia pastoris expression system.
