Methods: Plasmid vaccine of pIRHN was constructed and transfected into HeLa cells. The expression of HN was analyzed by Western blot analysis, and the mode of cell death was detected by fluorescence microscope, gel electrophoresis and TUNEL assay and the expression of p53 and bcl-2 was also analyzed in transfected Hela cells. The effect of pIRHN on sialic acid contents in the Hela cell was examined. Results: pIRHN nucleic acid vaccines could be expressed in eukaryotic cell. pIRHN could induce apoptosis after HeLa cells were transfected. The effect of antitumor responses of pIRHN was correlated with the contents of sialic acid in tumor cells, and there was no prominent evidence for the relatedness of the antitumor effect with the expression of p53 and bcl-2. Conclusion: pIRHN may become a new antitumor biological agent.展开更多

The study finds that among the three types of errors: interference errors, intralingual errors and developmental errors, developmental errors are the most important errors in the Chinese college students' writing. The results will help Chinese EFL teachers (especially college teachers) and students better judge the errors in the English writings of the Chinese students. It will also help the students avoid different kinds of errors in English writing.展开更多

METHODS: Vero-E6 cells was transfected with siRNA before SARS virus infection, and the effectiveness of siRNA interference was evaluated by observing the cytopathic effect (CPE) on Vero-E6 cells. RESULTS: Five pairs of siRNA showed ability to reduce CPE dose dependently, and two of them had the best effect. CONCLUSION: siRNA may be effective in inhibiting SARS-associated coronavirus replication.展开更多
