HBV DNA replication was measured by quantitative PCR and Southern blot analysis. The relative levels of hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis B e antigen were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8) was used to detect the viability of Hep G2.2.15 cells. The relationship between mi R-29 a and SMARCE1 were identified by target prediction and luciferase reporter analysis.RESULTS mi R-29 a promoted HBV replication and expression, w h i le S MA R C E 1 r e p r e s s e d H B V r e p lic a t io n a n d expression. Cell viability detection indicated that mi R-29 a transfection had no adverse effect on the host cells. Moreover, SMARCE1 was identified and validated to be a functional target of mi R-29 a. Furthermore, restored expression of SMARCE1 could relieve the increased HBV replication and expression caused by mi R-29 a overexpression.CONCLUSION mi R-29 a promotes HBV replication and expression through regulating SMARCE1. As a potential regulator of HBV replication and expression, mi R-29 a could be a promising therapeutic target for patients with HBV infection.展开更多

Conclusion Sperms of uremic patients had many morphologic and structural abnormalities in the head, neck and tail.展开更多
