ObjectiveTo construct 131Ⅰ-labeled hepatoma nucleic acid nanotrain and to explore its feasibility as a new nuclide carrier targeting hepatoma. MethodsThree short nucleic acid chains self-assembled to a long nucleic acid chain after being annealed， and 131Ⅰ-NT was obtained by radioiodine labeling using chloramine T method. The labeling efficiency and radiochemical purity of the nanoparticles were measured by paper chromatography. The stability of the labeled products in vitro at different temperatures and different storage solvents was detected. The specific uptake of nanoparticles by hepatocellular carcinoma cells was observed by laser confocal microscopy， and the radioactive uptake ratio of 131Ⅰ-NT combined with human hepatocellular carcinoma cell HepG2 and normal hepatocyte L02 was measured. The biodistribution of 131Ⅰ-NT was obtained through injecting 131Ⅰ-NT into HepG2 tumor-bearing mice via tail vein. ResultsThe labeling rate of 131Ⅰ-NT was （93.05±0.74） %， and the radiochemical purity post purification was （98.35±0.32） %. Its radiochemical purity in PBS and pure serum at 4℃ for 24 h was （92.77±0.04） % and （89.43±0.2） %， respectively. The radioactivity uptake rate of HepG2 cells was higher than that of L02 cells after 131Ⅰ-NT was incubated with two kinds of cells for 2 h significantly. After injection of 131Ⅰ-NT through tail vein， the radioactive uptake per gram of tumor tissue were （4.9±0.55）%ID/g， （10.12±0.32）%ID/g and （4.25±0.31）%ID/g at 30 min， 1 h and 2 h， respectively. The T/M ratio was 7.33±2.04， 36.54±12.72 and 44.93±7.90 respectively. ConclusionsThe 131Ⅰ-labeled long chain nucleic acid nanotrain was constructed successfully， which possesses relatively high stability in vitro ， and high targeting ability to HepG2 cells in vitro and HepG2 tumor-bearing mouse model. Our study demonstrated that 131Ⅰ-NT may be a potential radionuclide carrier targeting human liver cancer， which provides a new idea for the targeted radionuclide diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Determination of iodine in salt by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry / 中华地方病学杂志

Objective:To establish a method for determination of iodine in salt by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry.Methods:The content of iodine in salt was detected by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry with an automatic iodine analyzer. The standard curve linearity, detection limit, precision and accuracy of the method were evaluated. The iodine content of 20 edible salt samples was detected by the newly established method and direct titration, and the results were compared.Results:In the range of 0 - 150 μg/L standard curve, the correlation coefficient ( r) = - 0.999 9, and the detection limit was 1.4 mg/kg. The average iodine contents of iodine composition analysis standard materials GBW10006z and GBW10007z were 12.2 and 22.8 mg/kg ( n = 6), respectively, which were all within the given standard value ranges, and the relative standard deviations ( RSD) were 2.04% and 2.33%, respectively. Iodine composition analysis standard materials GBW10006b, GBW10007b, GBW10006v, GBW10007v, GBW10006z and GBW10007z measurement results (12.0, 24.6, 12.6, 22.8, 12.3, 23.2 mg/kg, n = 2) were all within the given standard value ranges, with good quality control. The iodine content of 20 edible salt samples was detected by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry and direct titration, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t = 1.99, P = 0.060). Conclusion:Arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry has the characteristics of good linear relationship, low detection limit, good precision and high accuracy in determination of salt iodine content, which is suitable for popularization and application.

LncRNA Xist Promotes Proliferation and Migration of Rat BMSC by Regulating CXCR4 Expression / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

@#【Objective】To explore the role of lncRNA Xist in proliferation and migration of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells（BMSC）and its possible mechanism.【Methods】BMSC were isolated，cultured and identified from the femur and tibia of 3 weeks old SD female rats in vitro. SiRNAs was designed and screened to acquire a high silencing efficiency siRNA. Lipo2000 was used to transfected si- Xist and si- NC into BMSC of the experimental group（si- Xist group）and the control group（si-NC group）. BMSC proliferation capacity was determined by CCK-8 assay. The transverse and longitudinal mobility of BMSC were measured by wound healing assay and transwell migration assays. QPCR was performed to verify the silencing efficiency of lncRNA Xist and detect the expression levels of SDF- 1 and CXCR4 mRNA. Western blot was used to quantify the expression of CXCR4 protein.【Results】The P3 generation BMSC shows shuttle- like or whirlpool-like，and flow cytometry showed CD11b（-），CD34（-），CD45（-），CD44（+），CD90（+），CD105（+）. When siRNAs were used to interfere with the expression of lncRNA Xist in BMSC ，the silencing efficiency of three siRNAs was 67.92% ，68.72% and 98.32% ，respectively. CCK- 8 assay showed that the OD450 value of si- Xist group decreased compared with si-NC group at 24 h and 48 h（P < 0.001，P < 0.01，respectively）and had no statistical difference at 12 h（P > 0.05）. Wound healing assay showed that the wound healing percentage of si-Xist group was lower than that of si-NC group（P < 0.05）；and the transwell migration assay showed that，compared with si- NC group，the cells that migrated through the polycarbonate membrane were obviously decreased at 6 h（P < 0.001）. QPCR experiment showed that CXCR4 expression in si-Xist group was lower than that in si-NC group at mRNA level（P < 0.05），while SDF-1 expression showed no significant statistical difference（P > 0.05）. Western blotting confirmed that CXCR4 expression in si- Xist group was lower than that in si-NC group（P < 0.05）.【Conclusions】LncRNA Xist promotes proliferation and migration of rat BMSC by regulating CXCR4 expression.
