When the dodecylamine derivative (1.0 μmol/L) did not show any cytotoxicity in the cultured cells, the derivative could not affect methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (holo-enzyme) activity, but significantly inhibit methionine synthase (holo-enzyme) activity in the cell homogenates of COS-7 grown in 1.0 μmol/L hydroxocobalamin-supplemented medium. An immunoblot analysis indicated that the dodecylamine derivative could not decrease the protein level of methionine synthase, but significantly inhibit the enzyme activity.展开更多

Methods Animals were divided randomly into 6 groups including normal control, AA, SHR0302 (0.3, 1.0, 3.0 nag · kg^-1, ig) and MTX (0.5 nag · kg^-1 , ig) . The effects of SHR0302 on AA rats by evaluating arthritis index, arthritis global assessment and paw swelling degree, histopathology of joint and spleen, inflammatory cytokine and antibody production in serum. We examined the proliferation of T, B and FLS by CCK8 kit; Thl7, Treg, total B and memory B cell proportion was measured by flow cytometry; Cytokines TNF-αβ, IL-1β, IL-10, IL-17 and antibody IgG1, IgG2a levels in serum were measured by ELISA kits; The ex- pression of p-JAK1 and p-STAT3 was measured by Western blot analysis. Results SHR0302 suppressed the se- verity of AA rats by attenuating the arthritis index, arthritis global assessment and paw swelling degree, and allevia- ted histopathology of spleen and joint of AA rats. SHR0302 can inhibit the proliferation of T, B and FLS, and down-regulated cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-17 and antibody IgG1, IgG2a levels, and suppressed the proportion of Thl7 and total B, and inhibited JAK1-STAT3 phosphorylation; There was no significant effect on Treg function and memory B cell proportion. Conclusion SHR0302 may attenuate the severity of AA rats, partially through signifi- cantly reducing Thl7 function and total B cell proportion by inhibiting JAK1-STAT3 phosphorylation.展开更多
