METHODS: Models of rat acute hepatic injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) administration, rat hepatic fibrosis induced by thioacetamide, injury of primary cultured rat hepatocytes induced by CCl4, respectively, were established. After treated with RF, content of serum alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and albumin (Alb), hyaluronic acid (HA), the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and hydroxyproline (Hyp) were measured and liver tissue was observed pathologically by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Effects of RF on pathological changes, function index, enzyme of scavenging free radicals and blood rheology were evaluated. RESULTS: In model of rat acute hepatic injury induced by CCI4, RF can significantly decrease the contents of serum ALT, AST, increase the content of Alb, improve the dropsy and fat denaturalization of hepatocytes. In model of rat hepatic fibrosis induced by thioacetamide, RF can inhibit the increase of HA, Hyp and whole blood viscosity, and improve the activities of GSH-Px and SOD, and inauricular microcirculation. CONCLUSION: RF has apparent protective effects on hepatic injury by increasing activity of GSH-Px and SOD, scavenging free radicals produced by CCI4, reducing blood viscosity, and improving microcirculation and blood supply.展开更多
Hydrothermal reactions of biphenyl-2,3,3A,5A-tetracarboxylic acid(H4bptc) with cobalt salt in the presence of 1,4-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)piperazin(bpmp) afforded one novel coordination polymer, namely, [Co(H2bptc...Hydrothermal reactions of biphenyl-2,3,3A,5A-tetracarboxylic acid(H4bptc) with cobalt salt in the presence of 1,4-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)piperazin(bpmp) afforded one novel coordination polymer, namely, [Co(H2bptc)(bpmp)0.5(H2O)]n(1). Its structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and further characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and TG analysis. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a = 11.4839(11), b = 16.6690(16), c = 11.5559(11) A, V = 2201.8(4) A3, Mr = 539.35, Dc = 1.627 g/cm^3, μ(MoK α) = 0.841 mm-1, F(000) = 1108, Z = 4, the final R = 0.0309 and w R = 0.0705 for 4090 observed reflections(I 2σ(I)). Complex 1 displays a one-dimensional(1D) chain bridged by bpmp. Two carboxylic groups of H4 bptc ligand adopt μ01-η1:η1 and μ1-η1:η coordination modes to bridge adjacent Co(Ⅱ) ions together with bpmp ligand to give alternately arranged left- and right-handed helical chains. In addition, variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that complex 1 shows weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the adjacent Co(Ⅱ) ions.展开更多

Methods: Genomic sequence from GenBank database (accession number: Z98048) covering the whole SNC6 gene was used to analyze the genomic structure of SNC6 and design primers for PCR amplification of its 5'\|flanking region. A 1894 bp fragment of the 5'\|flanking region \{(-1814\} to +75) was cloned by PCR using genomic DNA from a healthy donor peripheral blood lymphocyte as template. This fragment, as well as 3 shorter derivative fragments (1423 bp, 632 bp and 416 bp, which correspond to -1344 to +75, -552 to +75 and -337 to +75 respectively), were subcloned into pGL2 series luciferase reporter vectors. These constructs were introduced into colorectal cancer cell line SW620 for transient expression of reporter gene and luciferase activities were measured. Results: The genomic structure analysis showed there are 12 exons for SNC6 gene, which spans 32017 bp (nt71529 to nt39513 in Z98048 sequence). All transfected SW620 cells with the above 5\|flanking region\|containing constructs showed luciferase activities. The highest luciferase activities were measured in transfected cells with vectors containing 1894 bp fragments, and the lowest luciferase activities were measured in transfected cells with vectors containing 416 bp fragments. Luciferase activities were higher in transfected cells with vectors containing 632 bp fragments than that in transfected cells with vectors containing 1423 bp fragments. Conclusion: The basic transcription\|promoting element (promoter) for SNC6 expression resides between 0 to -337, and two transcription\|enhancing elements (enhancer) resides between -337 to -552 and -1344 to -1814, whereas one transcription\|inhibiting element (silencer) exists between -552 to -1344.展开更多

Its asymmetric unit consists of one and two halves of crystallographically independent Mn(Ⅱ) cations,one fully deprotonated H4 bpta ligand,seven coordinated water molecules and five solvent water as guest molecules. In I,each Mn(Ⅱ) atom is octahedrally coordinated by six oxygen atoms from bpta^(4-) anions and coordinated water molecules. In the Mn(Ⅱ) cations,one half Mn(Ⅱ) ion of them located at a 2-fold axis generating a trinuclear [Mn_3(H_2O)_2(RCOO)_2] linker by μ1,1-O(water) and μ1,3-O,O?(carboxylate) bridges and another half Mn(Ⅱ) ion with an inversion is a mononuclear linker. These neighbouring trinuclear and mononuclear Mn(Ⅱ) cations are linked together by biphenyl-3,3?,5,5?-tetracarboxylates to form a three-dimensional framework with a(42.84) topology of a(4,4)-connected net,in which the positions of the trinuclear [Mn_3(H_2O)_2(R-COO)_2] linker as a 4-connector linking four bpta^(4-) ligands in I reproduce an eagle-shaped arrangement. The polymeric structure exhibits a water channel with an accessible void of 797.1 ?~3,amounting to 15.7% of the total unit-cell volume. Each of the cavities in the network is occupied by solvent water molecules.展开更多

METHODS: PCR and direct DNA sequencing were used to identify BCL-6 gene mutations in the 5' noncoding region in 29 cases of gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and 18 cases of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma as well as 10 cases of reactive hyperplasia of lymph node (LRH). RESULTS: Six of 29 gastric DLBCLs (20.7%), 4 of 18 gastric MALT lymphomas (22.2%) and 1 of 10 LRHs(10%) were found to have mutations. All mutations were single-base substitutions and the frequency of single-base changes was 0.20×1O^(-2)-1.02×1O^(-2)per bp. CONCLUSION: Point mutations in the 5' noncoding region of BCL-6 gene are found in Chinese patients with primary gastric DLBCLs and MALT lymphomas, suggesting that they may, in some extent, participate in the pathogenesis of primary gastric DLBCLs and MALT lymphomas.展开更多
