| 1 | Activation of gibberellin 2-oxidase 6 decreases active gibberellin levels and creates a dominant semi-dwarf phenotype in rice (Oryza sativa L.)显示文摘Gibberellin (GA) 2-oxidase plays a key role in the GA catabolic pathway through 2β-hydroxylation.In the present study,we isolated a CaMV 35S-enhancer activation tagged mutant,H032.This mutant exhibited a dominant dwarf and GA-deficient phenotype,with a final stature that was less than half of its wild-type counterpart.The endogenous bioactive GAs are markedly decreased in the H032 mutant,and application of bioactive GAs (GA3 or GA4) can reverse the dwarf phenotype.The integrated T-DNA was detected 12.8 kb upstream of the OsGA2ox6 in the H032 genome by TAIL-PCR.An increased level of OsGA2ox6 mRNA was detected at a high level in the H032 mutant,which might be due to the enhancer role of the CaMV 35S promoter.RNAi and ectopic expression analysis of OsGA2ox6 indicated that the dwarf trait and the decreased levels of bioactive GAs in the H032 mutant were a result of the up-regulation of the OsGA2ox6 gene.BLASTP analysis revealed that OsGA2ox6 belongs to the class III of GA 2-oxidases,which is a novel type of GA2ox that uses C20-GAs (GA12 and/or GA53) as the substrates.Interestingly,we found that a GA biosynthesis inhibitor,paclobutrazol,positively regulated the OsGA2ox6 gene.Unlike the over-expression of OsGA2ox1,which led to a high rate of seed abortion,the H032 mutant retained normal flowering and seed production.These results indicate that OsGA2ox6 mainly affects plant stature,and the dominant dwarf trait of the H032 mutant can be used as an efficient dwarf resource in rice breeding. | Jian Huang Ding Tang Yi Shen Baoxiang Qin Lilan Hong Aiqing You Ming Li Xin Wang Hengxiu Yu Minghong Gu Zhukuan Cheng | 2010 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2010,37,1: | 36 |
| 2 | Reduction of tumorigenicity of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells by vascular endothelial growth factor antisense gene therapy显示文摘AIM To test the hypothesis to block VEGFexpression of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells mayinhibit tumor growth using the rat hepatomamodel.METHODS Amplifiy the 200 VEGF cDNAfragment and insert it into human U6 genecassette in the reverse orientation transcribingsmall antisense RNA which could specificallyinteract with VEGF165, and VEGF121 mRNA.Construct the retroviral vector containing thisantisense VEGF U6 cassette and package thereplication-deficient recombinant retrovirus.SMMC-7721 cells were transduced with thesevirus and positive clones were selected withG418. PCR and Southern blot analysis wereperformed to determine if U6 cassette integratedinto the genomic DNA of positive clone.Transfected tumor cells were evaluated for RNAexpression by ribonuclease protection assays.The VEGF protein in the supernatant of parentaltumor cells and genetically modified tumor cellswas determined with ELISA. In vitro and in vivogrowth properties of antisense VEGF cell clonein nude mice were analyzed.RESULTS Restriction enzyme digestion andPCR sequencing verified that the antisense VEGFRNA retroviral vector was successfullyconstructed. After G418 selection, resistantSMMC-7721 cell clone was picked up. PCR andSouthern blot analysis suggested that U6cassette was integrated into the cell genomicDNA. Stable SMMC-7721 cell clone transducedwith U6 antisense RNA cassette could express200bp small antisense VEGF RNA and secretereduced levels of VEGF in culture condition.Production of VEGF by antisense transgeneexpressing cells was 65 ± 10 ng / L per 106 cells,420 ± 45 ng/L per 106 cells in sense group and 485± 30 ng/L per 106 cells in the negative control group, (P<0.05). The antisense-VEGF cell clone appeared phenotypically indistinguishable from SMMC-7721 cells and SMMC-7721 cells transfected sense VEGF. The growth rate of the antisense-VEGF cell clone was the same as the control cells. When S. C. was implanted into nude mice, growth of antisense-VEGF cell lines was greatly inhibited compared with control cells.CONCLUSION Expression of antisense VEGFRNA in SMMC-7721 cells could decrease thetumorigenicity, and antisense-VEGF genetherapy may be an adjuvant treatment forhepatoma. | Yu Cheng Tang Yu Li Guan Xiang Qian Department of Biochemistry, Shanghai Second Medical University, Shanghai 200025, China | 2001 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2001,7,1: | 33 |

| 7 | Evolution of boundary layer ozone in Shijiazhuang,a suburban site on the North China Plain显示文摘The structure of the boundary layer affects the evolution of ozone(O3), and research into this structure will provide important insights for understanding photochemical pollution.In this study, we conducted a one-month observation(from June 15 to July 14, 2016) of the boundary layer meteorological factors as well as O3 and its precursors in Luancheng County,Shijiazhuang(37°53′N, 114°38′E). Our research showed that photochemical pollution in Shijiazhuang is serious, and the mean hourly maximum and mean 8-hr maximum O3 concentrations are 97.9 ± 26.1 and 84.4 ± 22.4 ppbV, respectively. Meteorological factors play a significant role in the formation of O3. High temperatures and southeasterly winds lead to elevated O3 values, and at moderate relative humidity(40%–50%) and medium boundary layer heights(1200–1500 m), O3 production sensitivity occurred in the transitional region between volatile organic compounds(VOC) and nitrogen oxides(NOx) limitations,and the O3 concentration was the highest. The vertical profiles of O3 were also measured by a tethered balloon. The results showed that a large amount of O3 was stored in the residual layer, and the concentration was positively correlated with the O3 concentration measured the previous day. During the daytime of the following day, the contribution of O3 stored in the residual layer to the boundary layer reached 27%± 7% on average. | Wei Zhao Guiqian Tang Huan Yu Yang Yang Yinghong Wang Lili Wang Junlin An Wenkang Gao Bo Hu Mengtian Cheng Xingqin An Xin Li Yuesi Wang | 2019 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2019,31,9: | 15 |

| 12 | Incidence and risk factors of tuberculosis among the elderly population in China:a prospective cohort study显示文摘Background:China is facing challenges of the shifting presentation of tuberculosis(TB)from younger to elderly due to an ageing population,longer life expectancy and reactivation disease.However,the burden of elderly TB and influence factors are not yet clear.To fill the gap,we generated a cohort study to measure the magnitude of TB incidence and associated factors among the elderly population aged 65 years and above in China.Methods:In this cohort established in 2013 through a prevalence survey conducted in selected sites,a total of 34076 elderlies without TB were enrolled into two-year follow-up.We used both active and passive case findings to find out all TB patients among them.The person-year(PY)incidence rates for both bacteriologically positive TB and active TB were calculated.Cox proportional regression model was performed to test effect of risk factors,and the population attributable fraction(PAF)of each risk factor contributing to incident TB among elderlies was calculated.Results:Over the two-year follow-up period,a total of 215 incident active TB were identified,62 of which were bacteriologically positive.The incidence rates for active TB and bacteriologically positive TB were 481.8 per 100000 PY(95%CI:417.4–546.2 per 100000 PY)and 138.9 per 100000 PY(95%CI:104.4–173.5 per 100000 PY),respectively.Incident cases detected by active case finding were significantly higher(P<0.001).Male,non-Han nationality,previously treated TB,ex/current smoker and body mass index(BMI)<18.5 presented as independent predictors for developing TB disease.For developing bacteriologically positive TB,the biggest contribution was from self-reported ex or current smoker(18.06%).And,for developing active TB,the biggest contribution was from non-Han nationality(35.40%),followed by male(26.80%)and age at 75 years and above(10.85%).Conclusions:Ageing population in China had a high TB incidence rate and risk to develop TB disease,implying that National TB Program(NTP)needs to prioritize for elderly.Active case finding should be applied capture more active TB cases among this particular population,especially for male,non-Han nationality,and those with identified risk factors. | Jun Cheng Yan-Ni Sun Can-You Zhang Yan-Ling Yu Li-Hong Tang Hong Peng Ying Peng Yu-Xia Yao Shuang-Yi Hou Jian-Wei Li Jin-Ming Zhao Lan Xia Lin Xu Yin-Yin Xia Fei Zhao Li-Xia Wang Hui Zhang | 2020 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2020,9,1: | 10 |
| 13 | Cognitive impairment and the associated risk factors among the elderly in the Shanghai urban area:a pilot study from China显示文摘Objectives:Our study aimed to investigate the prevalence of cognitive impairment(CI)and the associated risk factors among elderly people in Shanghai urban area,China.Methods:A population-based survey was conducted among people aged 55 years or older in urban areas of Shanghai.Face-to-face interviews were carried out to collect information including demographic characteristics,medical history,and medication use,etc.The validated Chinese version of the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)was used to screen subjects with CI,and the criteria of CI were adjusted for education levels.Results:A total of 3,176 home-living residents(≥55 years old)were included in the study.Among them,266 people(102 men and 164 women)were identified as cognition impaired,with a prevalence of 8.38%(266/3,176,95%CI:(8.26,8.49))for both genders,9.21%(102/1,107,95%CI:(9.18,9.33))for men and 7.93%(164/2,069,95%CI:(7.80,8.09))for women,respectively.Furthermore,we found that several significant risk factors,including social factors(education,number of children,marriage status,and family structure),physiological factors(age,blood glucose level,and obesity),factors on living styles(physical exercise,diet&chronic diseases),and genetic factor(ApoE),associated with CI onset.Conclusions:This study confirms the high prevalence of CI among the elderly population in the Shanghai urban in China,similar to previous epidemiologic studies in Western countries.The putative risk factors associated with CI merit further investigated. | Jun-Peng Zhuang Gang Wang Qi Cheng Li-Ling Wang Rong Fang Li-Hua Liu Ran Xiong Yu Zhang Ya-Xing Gui Wen-Yan Kang Hui-Dong Tang Sheng-Di Chen | 2012 | Translational Neurodegeneration2012,1,1: | 10 |
| 14 | Study on the mechanism of copper-ammonia complex decomposition in struvite formation process and enhanced ammonia and copper removal显示文摘Heavy metals and ammonia are difficult to remove from wastewater,as they easily combine into refractory complexes.The struvite formation method(SFM) was applied for the complex decomposition and simultaneous removal of heavy metal and ammonia.The results indicated that ammonia deprivation by SFM was the key factor leading to the decomposition of the copper-ammonia complex ion.Ammonia was separated from solution as crystalline struvite,and the copper mainly co-precipitated as copper hydroxide together with struvite.Hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction were considered to be the main surface interactions between struvite and copper hydroxide.Hydrogen bonding was concluded to be the key factor leading to the co-precipitation.In addition,incorporation of copper ions into the struvite crystal also occurred during the treatment process. | Cong Peng Liyuan Chai Chongjian Tang Xiaobo Min Yuxia Song Chengshan Duan Cheng Yu | 2017 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2017,29,1: | 9 |
| 15 | Association of a SLC30A8 Genetic Variant with Monotherapy of Repaglinide and Rosiglitazone Effect in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Patients in China显示文摘Objective To investigate a potential relationship between Solute carrier family 30 (zinc transporter) member 8 (SLC30A8) rs13266634 variant and efficacy of rosiglitazone or repaglinide in treating newly diagnosed Chinese type 2 diabetes patients.Methods A total of 209 diabetic patients without any antihyperglycemic history were recruited and treated with repaglinide or rosiglitazone randomly for 48 weeks (104 and 105 patients,respectively).Anthropometric measurements and clinical laboratory tests were carried out before and after the treatment.An non-synonymous variant rs13266634 was genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectroscopy.Results Ninety-one patients in repaglinide group and ninety-three patients in rosiglitazone group completed the study.Δ value of homeostasis model assessment of beta cell function (HOMA-B)and Δ value of fasting proinsulin levels were statistically significant between three genotype groups (P=0.0149 and 0.0246,respectively) after rosiglitazone treatment.However,no genotype association was observed in the repaglinide or rosiglitazone group with other parameters.Conclusion The SLC30A8 variant was associated with the efficacy of insulin sensitizer monotherapy on insulin secretion in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus in Shanghai,China. | JIANG Feng LI Qing HU Cheng ZHANG Rong WANG Cong Rong YU Wei Hui LU Jing Yi TANG Shan Shan BAO Yu Qian XIANG Kun San JIA Wei Ping | 2012 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2012,25,1: | 8 |
| 16 | An in vitro and finite element study of load redistribution in the midfoot显示文摘A good knowledge of midfoot biomechanics is important in understanding the biomechanics of the entire foot,but it has never been investigated thoroughly in the literature.This study carried out in vitro experiments and finite element analysis to investigate the midfoot biomechanics.A foot-ankle finite element model simulating the mid-stance phase of the normal gait was developed and the model validated in in vitro experimental tests.Experiments used seven in vitro samples of fresh human cadavers.The simulation found that the first principal stress peaks of all midfoot bones occurred at the navicular bone and that the tensile force of the spring ligament was greater than that of any other ligament.The experiments showed that the longitudinal strain acting on the medial cuneiform bone was-26.2±10.8μ-strain,and the navicular strain was-240.0±169.1μ-strain along the longitudinal direction and 65.1±25.8μ-strain along the transverse direction.The anatomical position and the spring ligament both result in higher shear stress in the navicular bone.The load from the ankle joint to five branches of the forefoot is redistributed among the cuneiforms and cuboid bones.Further studies on the mechanism of loading redistribution will be helpful in understanding the biomechanics of the entire foot. | NIU Wen Xin TANG Ting Ting ZHANG Ming JIANG Cheng Hua FAN Yu Bo | 2014 | Science China(Life Sciences)2014,57,12: | 8 |
| 17 | Efficacy of thymosin alpha-1 and interferon alpha in treatment of chronic viral hepatitis B:A randomized controlled study显示文摘AIM: To observe the efficiency and safety of thymosin-α1 treatment in patients with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and HBV DNA positive chronic hepatitis. METHODS: Sixty-two patients were randomly divided into groups A and B. The patients in group A received subcutaneous injection of 1.6 mg thymosin-α1, twice a week (T-α1 group) for six months, and the patients in group B received 5 MU interferon alpha (IFN-α) each day for fifteen days, then three times weekly (IFN-α group) for six months. The results between two groups treated with and the group untreated with IFN-α which was followed up for 12 mo (historical control group consisting of 30 patients) were compared, and three groups were comparable between each other (P > 0.05) at baseline (age, sex, clinical history, biochemical, and serological parameters). RESULTS: At the end of treatment, complete response, which was defined as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization and HBV DNA and HBeAg loss, occurred in 9 of 29 (31.0%) patients in the T-α1 group and in 15 of 33 (45.5%) patients in the IFN-α group (c2 = 1.36, P >0.05). After a follow-up period of six months, a complete response was observed in 14 of 29 (48.3%) patients in the T-α1 group and in 9 of 33 (27.3%) patients in the IFN-α group (c2 = 2.93, P > 0.05). Compared with the results observed in the historical control (HC) group untreated with IFN-α which was followed up for 12 mo, the rate of complete response was significantly higher in IFN-α group at the end of therapy (1 of 30 vs 15 of 33, c2 = 14.72, P < 0.001) and in the T-α1 group at the end of follow-up (1 of 30 vs 14 of 29, c2 = 15.71, P < 0.001). In T-α1 and IFN-α treatment groups, the area under (the plasma concentration time) curve (AUC) of negative HBV DNA and HBeAg was 34%, 17%, 31% and 19% smaller than that in the HC group. By the end of the follow- up period, the proportions of ALT normalization and negative HBV DNA in the T-α1 group were significantly higher than those in the IFN-α and HC groups. The odds of ALT normalization and negative HBV DNA at the end of the follow-up was three-fold higher in the T-α1 group than in the IFN-α group. Unlike IFN-α, T-α1 was well tolerated by all patients, and no side effects appeared in T-α1 group.CONCLUSION: The results suggest that a 6-mo course of T-α1 therapy is effective and safe in patients with chronic hepatitis B. T-α1 is able to reduce HBV replication in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Furthermore, T-α1 is better tolerated than IFN-α and can gradually induce more sustained ALT normalization and HBV DNA and HBeAg loss. However, a response rate of 48.3% is still less ideal. A more effective therapeutic approach warrants further study. | Jing You Lin Zhuang Hong-Ying Cheng Shou-Ming Yan Lan Yu Jun-Hua Huang Bao-Zhang Tang Meng-Ling Huang Yong-Liang Ma Virasakdi Chongsuvivatwong Hutcha Sriplung Alan Geater Yan-Wei Qiao Rong-Xue Wu | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,41: | 8 |
| 18 | Controllable optical activity with non-chiral plasmonic metasurfaces显示文摘Optical activity is the rotation of the plane of linearly polarized light along the propagation direction as the light travels through optically active materials.In existing methods,the strength of the optical activity is determined by the chirality of the materials,which is difficult to control quantitatively.Here we numerically and experimentally investigated an alternative approach to realize and control the optical activity with non-chiral plasmonic metasurfaces.Through judicious design of the structural units of the metasurfaces,the right and left circular polarization components of the linearly polarized light have different phase retardations after transmitting through the metasurfaces,leading to large optical activity.Moreover,the strength of the optical activity can be easily and accurately tuned by directly adjusting the phase difference.The proposed approach based on non-chiral plasmonic metasurfaces exhibits large optical activity with a high controllable degree of freedom,which may provide more possibilities for applications in photonics. | Ping Yu Jianxiong Li Chengchun Tang Hua Cheng Zhaocheng Liu Zhancheng Li Zhe Liu Changzhi Gu Junjie Li Shuqi Chen Jianguo Tian | 2016 | Light(Science & Applications)2016,5,1: | 8 |

The objective of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effect of tetramethylpyrazine(TMP) on irradiated lymphocytes and discover the possible mechanism of protection. METHOD: Lymphocytes were pretreated for 12 h with TMP(25-200 μmol·L-1) and then exposed to 4 Gy radiation. Cell apoptosis and the signaling pathway were analyzed. RESULTS: Irradiation increased cell death, DNA fragmentation, activated caspase activation and cytochrome c translocation, downregulated B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2) and up-regulated Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax). Pretreated with TMP significantly reversed this tendency. Several anti-apoptotic characteristics of TMP, including the ability to increase cell viability, inhibit caspase-9 activation, and upregulate Bcl-2 and down-regulate Bax in 4Gy-irradiated lymphocytes were determined. Signal pathway analysis showed TMP could translate nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) from cytosol into the nucleus. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that TMP had a radioprotective effect through the NF-κB pathway to inhibit apoptosis, and it may be an effective candidate for treating radiation diseases associated with cell apoptosis. | WANG Xiao-Yan MA Zeng-Chun WANG Yu-Guang TAN Hong-Ling XIAO Cheng-Rong LIANG Qian-De TANG Xiang-Lin CHENG Yu GAO Yue | 2014 | Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines2014,12,10: | 7 |
