METHODS: Ninety healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal group (n=-10), treatment group of compound rhodiola sachalinensis A Bor (n=-40) and CCl4-induced model group (n=40). The liver fibrosis was induced by CCl4 subcutaneous injection. Treatment group was administered with compound rhodiola sachalinensis A Bor (0.5 g/kg) once a day at the same time. Then the activities of several serum fibrosis-associated enzymes: alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (β-NAG) and the levels ofserum procollagen Ⅲ (PCⅢ), collagen Ⅳ (CⅣ), hyaluronic acid （HA） were assayed. The histooathol(mical chanaes were observed with HE, VG and Masson stain. The expression of TGF-β1 mRNA,αl (I) mRNA and Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX ) mRNA was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in situ.RESULTS: Compound rhodiola sachalinensis A Bor significantly reduced serum activities of ALT, AST, β-NAG and decreased the levels of PCⅢ, CⅣ, HA, improved the liver histopathological changes, inhibited the expression of TGF-β1 mRNA, α(1) mRNA and Na+/Ca2+ exchanger mRNA in rats. CONCLUSION: Compound rhodiola sachalinensis A Bor can intervene in CCI4-induced liver fibrosis in rats, in which potential mechanisms may be decreasing the production of TGF-β1, reducing the production of collagen, preventing the activation of hepatic stellate cell (HSC) and inhibiting theexpression of TGF-β1 mRNA, αl(I) mRNA and Na+/Ca2+ exchanger mRNA.展开更多

As a new type of skin substitute, hydrogel has emerging gradually with its excellent properties. However, it is still a challenge to combine with biological active agents to facilitate skin regeneration. Under the circumstance, we synthesized argininebased poly(ester amide)(Arg-PEA) and hyaluronic acid(HA-MA), and combined them into new hybrid hydrogels via photo-crosslinking. We found that the internal structure and physicochemical properties of hybrid hydrogels were greatly improved with the increase of content of Arg-PEA. Therefore, we designed hybrid hydrogels with 5 wt% and 10 wt% of Arg-PEA content, respectively. Besides, we selected the corresponding anti-inflammatory(CRP, TNF-α) indicators to detect the anti-inflammatory properties of the hybrid hydrogels at the protein level, and the corresponding antioxidant indicators(SOD, GSH/GSSG, MDA)were selected to investigate the antioxidant properties of hybrid hydrogels at the cellular level in vitro.In addition, we also selected relevant genes to test the effect of hybrid hydrogels on fibrosis and vascularization in the process of skin wound healing in vitro and verified them in vivo with a mouse dorsum wound model. The results confirmed that Arg-PEA/HA-MA(AH) hybrid hydrogel was a prospective scaffold material for skin regeneration.展开更多

After it was cloned into T-vector and sequenced,pSG5 was used to transiently express peroxiredoxin I in IEC-6 by liposome-mediated transfection, and the expression of peroxiredoxin I was evaluated by RT-PCRand Western blot. RESULTS: A DNA fragment about 750 bp was amplified from total RNAs of IEC-6 cells using specific primers of peroxiredoxin Ⅰ. The sequencing confirmed the coding region was successfully cloned into T-vector, which was completely coincident with the sequence in GeneBank. After the EcoRI-BamHI fragment of T-vector containing peroxiredoxin I was inserted into pSG5, the recombinant plasmid was transferred to IEC-6 cells. RT-PCR assay showed that a DNA fragment of 930 bp could be amplified,which indicated the transcription of pSG5-Prx. Western blot confirmed the expression of peroxiredoxin Ⅰ in IEC-6 cells.CONCLUSION: Mouse peroxiredoxin I can be successfully expressed in IEC-6 cells.展开更多
