Methods Diabetic mouse model was established by intraperitioneal injection of alloxan. Low, middle, and high doses of Cu2（Thr）4 at 0.002%, 0.02% and 0.1% were given respectively to diabetic mice following lavage. The fasting blood glucose was determined after the diabetic mice were given Cu2 （Thr）4 for 0, 30, and 45 d. The diabetic mice were killed on the 45th day. Then glycosylated hemoglobin （HbAlc） and blood lipids were assayed, and pathologic changes in hearts and kidneys stained with HE were observed. Results Compared with the control group in which the diabetic mice were given distilled water, the value of blood glucose reduced significantly in middle dose group （P 〈 0.01 ）, followed by that in low dose group （P 〈 0.05）. TC level reduced markedly and HDL level increased significantly in all three treatment groups （P 〈 0.05）. Especially in middle dose group, cardiac muscle fibers were neatly arranged, nucleus and cytoplasm well distributed, glomeruli showing normal structure, cells well distributed and staining being normal. Conclusion Cu2 （Thr）4 reduces blood glucose, regulates blood lipids, and play protective action on the vessels of hearts and kidneys in diabetic mice. The effects of it in middle dose were better than those of other doses.展开更多

The complex crystallizes in triclinic, space group P 1^-, with α = 9.440（5）, b = 10.124（6）, c = 11.603（7） A, α = 102.904（7）, β = 94.033（6）,γ = 104.299（7）°, C34H40Cu2N16O8, Mr = 927.90, V= 1038.2（10） A^3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.484 g/cm^3, μ（MoKα） = 1.093 mm^-1, F（000） = 478, R = 0.0609 and wR = 0.1512 for 2889 observed reflections with Ⅰ 〉 2σ（I）. X-ray analysis reveals that two Cu（Ⅱ） atoms are bridged by two dicyanamides to form a centrosymmetric Cu（Ⅱ）-Cu（Ⅱ） dinuclear entity. Every Cu（Ⅱ） ion is five-coordinated with a distorted square pyramidal coordination geometry and IM-1′-MeBzlm ligand coordinates to the metal ion with the k^2 N（1 ′-MeBzlm）, O（IM） mode to avoid steric hindrance with the methyl group in the complex. Meanwhile, the molecules are linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds, leading to a 1-D chain structure. Moreover, such chains are further linked by π-π stacking interactions to form a 2-D network structure. Magnetic measurement demonstrates that the intramolecular exchange couplings between Cu（Ⅱ） ion and the IM-1 ′-MeBzIm are ferromagnetic with J = 12.46 cm^-1, where the spin Hamitonian is defined as H^ = -2JS^1S^2 within the complex.展开更多

Myeloid DCs were isolated from the peripheral blood of each subject using CD1c(BDCA1)+ DC isolation Kit. Monocytes from healthy donor were cultured with DC growth factors such as IL-4 and GM-CSF either in the presence or absence of hepatitis C virus(HCV) viral proteins followed by LPS stimulation. Phenotyping was done by flowcytometry and gene expression profiling was evaluated by real-time PCR.RESULTS: Non-responders [sustained virological response(SVR)-ve] to conventional antiviral therapy had significantly higher expression of genes associated with interferon responsive element such as IDO1 and PD-L1(6-fold) and negative regulators of JAK-STAT pathway such as SOCS(6-fold) as compared to responders(SVR+ve) to antiviral therapy. The downregulated genes in non-responders included factors involved in antigen processing and presentation mainly belonging to major histocompatibility complex(MHC) Class-Ⅱ family as HLA-DP, HLA-DQ(2-fold) and superoxide dismutase(2-fold). Cells grown in the presence of HCV viral proteins had genes downregulated for factors involved in innate response, interferon signaling, DC maturation and co-stimulatory signaling to T-cells, while the genes for cytokine signaling and Toll-like receptors(4-fold) were upregulated as compared to cells grown in absence of viral proteins.CONCLUSION: Underexpressed MHC class-Ⅱ genes and upregulated negative regulators in non-responders indicate diminished capacity to present antigen and may constitute mechanism of functionally defective state of DCs.展开更多

The solution behaviours of the nickel(Ⅱ) complexes have been studied by Uv vis, cyclic voltammetric techniques. The red shifts were observed for the absorption band maxima of the electronic spectra from NiLR 1 to NiLR 2 (R=2 methylfuran, 2 methylthiophene, 2 methylpyridine). The value of E 1/2 of the NiLR 2 is less than NiLR 1 and both of them are lower than that of the nickel(Ⅱ) complex of the unsubstituted ligand, and these reasons are discussed.展开更多
