Circular RNA_0003028 targeting microRNA-498 regulating the effects of suppressor with morphogenesis effect on genitalia-l/p53 signaling pathway on liver cancer cell line Huh7 / 解剖学报

Objective To investigate the effects and molecular mechanism of circular RNA (circ) _0003028 on proliferation, migration and invasion of human liver cancer cells. Methods Liver cancer cell line Huh7 were divided into small interfering RNA(si)-NC group, si-circ_0003028 group, microRNA(miR) -NC group, miR-498 mimics group, si-circ _0003028+anti-miR-NC group and si-circ_0003028+anti-miR-498 group. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of circ _ 0003028 and miR-498 in liver cancer tissues and cells of each groups. MTT was used to detect cell proliferation. Transwell was used to detect cell migration and invasion. Western blotting was used to detect protein expression. Dual luciferase reporter experiment was used to detect the target regulation relationship between circ_0003028 and miR-498. Results The expression level of circ_0003028(0.98±0.02 vs 1. 36±0. 01) increased and the expression level of miR-498(0. 98±0. 02 vs 0. 63±0. 02) decreased in liver cancer tissues (P<0. 05). After inhibiting the expression of circ_0003028 or overexpression of miR-498- the expression levels of Ki-67(0. 85±0. 02 vs 0. 41±0. 02 or 0. 95±0. 11 vs 0. 37±0. 02)- matrix metalloprotein(MMP)-2(0. 71±0. 02 vs 0. 43±0. 03 or 0. 83±0. 02 vs 0. 41±0. 03)- and MMP-9 (0. 74±0. 02 vs 0. 37±0. 02 or 0. 78±0. 02 vs 0. 39±0. 02) proteins in Huh7 cells decreased- and cell viability(1. 53± 0. 03 vs 1. 05±0. 02 or 1. 68±0. 02 vs 1. 11±0. 02) decreased- the number of migration(111. 40±2. 12 vs 77. 22±2. 38 or 108. 90±2. 30 vs 78. 44 ± 1. 46) and invasion ( 87. 89 ± 2. 18 vs 49. 78 ± 1. 98 or 80. 22 ± 1. 79 vs 38. 22 ± 1. 52) cells decreased- and the protein expression levels of suppressor with morphogenesis effect on genitalia-1( SMG-1) (0. 76±0. 02 vs 1. 39±0. 02 or 0. 79±0. 02 vs 1. 39±0. 02)- p53(0. 77±0. 02 vs 1. 24±0. 03 or 0. 82±0. 03 vs 1. 45±0. 03)- and p53- ser15(0. 78±0. 03 vs 1. 50±0. 02 or 0. 82±0. 02 vs 1. 49±0. 04) increased (P<0. 05). circ_0003028 targeted regulation of miR-498- and silencing miR-498 reversed the effects of inhibiting the expression of circ_0003028 on the proliferation- migration and invasion of Huh7 cells. Conclusion Inhibiting the expression of circ_0003028 can inhibit the proliferation- migration and invasion of liver cancer cells by targeting miR-498 to affect the SMG-1/ p53 signaling pathway.

Clone, expression and identification of penicillin binding protein 2a of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from patients / 中华烧伤杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To clone, express and identify the mecA fragment which encoded penicillin binding protein 2a (PBP2a) from methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from patients by gene recombination method.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>According to the sequence of mecA gene recorded in GenBank, the primer of mecA fragment which encoded amino acids 25 - 668 of PBP2a was designed. Then the mecA fragment was amplified by PCR and cloned into pQE30 plasmid. After being identified by enzyme digestion and sequencing, the recombinant plasmid was transferred into E. coli M15 [pREP4], and then its expression was induced by 1 mmol/L Isopropy-beta-D-Thiogalactoside (IPTG). The expression product was analyzed by SDS-PAGE, protein sequencing and mass spectroscopy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The recombinant pQE30- mecA had been successfully constructed. The result of sequencing showed that the mecA fragment had 1932 bases, including 9 bases undergoing mutation. After being induced for 6 hours by IPTG, the soluble protein in M15 (pQE30- mecA), with a relative molecular weight of 74 x 10(3), was found by SDS-PAGE. The soluble protein had been confirmed to be PBP2a after identification.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The soluble PBP2a of MRSA isolated from patients is expressed successfully by gene recombinant technology.</p>
