  • Construction of Human Flag-AWP1 Recombinant Adenovirus Vector and Its Expression and Localization in Human Vascular Endothelial Cell

    Objective To construct AWP1 (associated with protein kinase C related kinase 1) recombinant adenovirus as the tool of transferring the gene and investigate its expression and localization in human vascular endothelial cell ECV304. Methods Cloned AWP1 cDNA was inserted into the multiply clone sites (MCS) of plasmid pcDNA3 for adding flag tag, and the flag-AWP1 gene was subcloned into shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV. After identified with restrictional enzymes, plasmid pAdTrack-flag-AWP1 was linearized by digestion with restriction endonuclease PmeⅠ, and subsequently cotransformed into E.coli BJ5183 cells with adenoviral backbone plasmid pAdEasy-1 to make homologous recombination. After linearized by PacⅠ, the homologous recombinant adenovirus plasmid transfected into 293 cells with Lipofectamine to pack recombinant adenovirus. After PCR assay of recombinant adenovirus granules, recombinant adenoviruses infected 293 cells repeatedly for obtaining the high-level adenoviruses solution. And then, the recombinant adenoviruses infected human ECV304 cells for observing the expression and localization of AWP1 under laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM). Results PCR assay showed that recombinant adenovirus Ad-flag-AWP1 was obtained successfully; and ECV304 cells were infected high-efficiently by the homologous recombinant virus. Then, it was observed that flag-AWP1 protein expressed in ECV304 cells and distributed in the leading edges of the cell membrane. Conclusion The vectors of flag-AWP1 recombinant adenovirus are constructed, and the localization of AWP1 protein in ECV304 cells might show that AWP1 may be a potential role on the cell signal transduction.

  • ROLES OF LEPTINMEDIATED INTRACELLULAR SIGNALING PATHWAYS ON WOUND HEALING

    Objective To study the leptin-mediated intracellular signal pathways and their effects on wound healing.Methods The literature was reviewed extensively, concerning the physical and chemical characters of leptin, the mechanism of its receptor action, the receptor-related intracellular signal pathways and their roles on wound healing. Results Leptin was a protein hormone expressed by ob gene with relative molecular mass 16×103, it could activate the main singal pathways such as Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription, mitogenactivated protein kinases and phosphoinositide-3-kinase pathways through binding with its specific receptor, to participate in the modulation of multiple functions including energy metabolism, weight balance and wound healing. Leptin receptors were widely distributed in various tissues, which suggest the multiple functions of leptin. Local leptin expression was increased after skin injured, and it could stimulate keratinocytes proliferation, epithelialization, fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis, resulting in accelarated wound repair. Leptin expression was significantly increased after mucosal injury or bacteria infections, leading to accelarated mucosal repair through modulation of mucosal glandular secretion, improvment of mucosal blood flow, and synergistic action with endothelin-1.Conclusion Leptin can promote wound healing through activating its receptor-related intracellular signal pathways.

    Objective To observe the expression and investigate the significance of suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). Methods 100 Lewis rats were immunized with interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) to induce EAU animal model, and they were divided into control group and treatment group randomly. The treatment group was administered cyclosporine A 20mg/(kgmiddot;d)after 1 to 28 days of immunization; the control group received saline buffer at equal quantity. All eyes were evaluated by slit-lamp microscopy before and after 7, 14, 21, 28 days of immunization; IL-4,IL-12,IFN-gamma; in the serum were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA); the SOCS mRNA and protein level in PBMC were measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q-PCR) and western blot. Results The inflammation was most obvious at 14 days after immunization. The control group showed obvious iridocyclitis; the treatment group showed mild anterior chamber inflammation but no posterior synechia and hypopyon. The highest level of IL-12 and IFN-gamma; were observed at 14 days after immunization, followed by decline to the baseline at 28 days after immunization in control group; the highest level of IL-12 and IFN-gamma; were found at 14 days after immunization in treatment group, but the level was lower than control group obviously. Compared with the level before immunization, there are no differences at other time-point. The concentration of IL-4 decreased indistinctly in control group but increased in treatment group. SOCS1、Both of SOCS1 and SOCS5 increased to the highest level at 14 days after immunization, as 4.05 and 383 times of preimmunization in control group respectively, as 1.15 and 1.16 times in treatment group respectively. The CIS and SOCS3 mRNA increased lightly in two groups and treatment group milder than control group. Marked increased expression of SOCS1 and SOCS5 protein was detected at 7, 14, 21days than preimmunization, both of CIS and SOCS3 protein were significantly increased on 14, 21 days in control group; only SOCS1 protein was significantly increased on 14 days in treatment group and there are no differences at other time-point compared to pre-immunization. Conclusion Up-regulation of SOCS1 and SOCS5 expression maybe related to intensive response of Th1 in the development of EAU. Mild up-regulation of CIS and SOCS3 maybe associated with intensive response of Th2 which against the reaction of Th1 to carry out the dynamic immune balance.

    ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of interleukin-18(IL-18)and signal transducers and activators of transcription 5(STAT5)in retina of 4-24-week-old diabetic rats, and explore the potential molecular mechanisms involved in diabetic retinopathy (DR).MethodsRetinal gene expression profile of healthy and 8-week-old diabetic rats was established with restriction fragment differential displaypolymerase chained reaction (RFDD-PCR), and the differences was analyzed by bioinformatics. IL-18 and STAT5 were filtrated as the candidate genes of DR. The expression of IL-18 and STAT5 in retina of diabetic rats with the age of 4, 8, and 24 weeks was observed by semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).ResultsThe result of RFDD-PCR showed:expression of IL-18 was higher in healthy retina than that in diabetic one; expression of STAT5 was not found in healthy rats but in diabetic ones. The result of RT-PCR showed:compared with the normal, high expression of IL-18 was found in 4-week diabetic retina, reduced in 8-week one, and decreased to the lowest in 24-week one. The expression of STAT5 was not observed in healthy or 4week diabetic retina, but occurred in 8-week one, and increased in 24-week one. ConclusionThe expression of IL-18 and the activation of STAT5 may relate to the occurrance of DR. The expression of IL-18 doesn′t depend on the activation of STAT5. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:258-260)
