    Abstract Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic and recurrent inflammatory disorder in gastrointestinal tract. Shen Ling Bai Zhu San (SLBZS), which has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), has been widely used to treat gastrointestinal diseases. The isolated fractions of TCM have also been proved to possess an important potential for treating diseases, which are due to their effective components.
    Purpose: In this study, we examined the possibility that SLBZS and its isolated active fractions may prevent DSS-induced colitis, and investigated the potential mechanisms by regulating genetic profile of colon.
    Methods: Colitis mice were induced by 2.5% DSS for 7 days, and then SLBZS and different SLBZS extracts were administrated to protect the mice for 7 days. Body weight, diarrhea, bleeding in stool, colon length, spleen weight, cytokines of serum and colon and pathology of colon were assessed. The level of Ginsenoside Rg1, Re and Rb1 in different SLBZS extracts and qualitative analysis of n-butanol extract of SLBZS (S-Nb) was performed by HPLC and LC-MS, respectively. And the effects of S-Nb on the transcriptome in colitis were investigated.
    Results: Our results showed that SLBZS and S-Nb significantly regained body weight, reduced DAI, splenomegaly and the length of colon and attenuated histological damage of the colon. Meanwhile, SLBZS and S-Nb markedly reduced the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 and increased the level of IL-10 in serum and colon. These effects may be associated with the high levels of Ginsenoside Rg1, Re and Rb1 and rich variety of compounds in S-Nb including 6 ginsenosides, glycyrrhizin, L-tryptophan, and so on. Transcriptome analysis revealed that S-Nb selectively regulated 103 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), 36 of which were changed in DSS-induced mice. And the genes of Per2, Per3, Npy and Serpina3m were closely related to colitis and also restored by S-Nb with different extent. Remarkably, these DEGs modulated the biological functions of colitis mice, including extracellular region, response to external stimulus, MAPK signaling pathway and arginine and proline metabolism.
    Conclusions: These data indicated that SLBZS and S-Nb blunted DSS-induced colitis by modulating differentially expression gene profile and biological functions based on their ginsenosides and rich compounds.

    Abstract PM₂.₅ samples were collected from residential, commercial, plaza and public green spaces in Lin’an, Hangzhou, in spring (March and April) and winter (February and December) in 2017. PAHs were detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and their sources were identified using the diagnostic ratio (DR) and principal component analysis-multiple linear regression (PCA-MLR). The average PAH concentration in winter was 1.3 times that in spring (p < 0.01). The PAH concentrations in the green spaces decreased as commercial > residential > plaza > public green space (p < 0.05). The sources of PAHs were vehicle emissions and coal combustion pollution transported by northern Chinese air masses. Slightly higher excessive cancer risks were determined in the commercial and residential green spaces than in the plaza and public green spaces. Green coverage, pedestrian volume, traffic flow and building density greatly influenced the decrease in the PAH concentration in the green spaces. Among the 4 types of green spaces, public green space had the most ecological benefits and should be fully utilized in urban green space planning to improve public health in urban spaces.

    Abstract Background: Previous evidence suggested that the differentiation of Lin-CD45RA-DC precursors were prior to plasmcytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) than myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) within ovarian cancer microenvironment. However, the mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, we investigated the function of Notch 1 signal pathway in the differentiation of Lin-CD45RA-DC precursors.
    Methods: The CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells were extracted from umbilical cord blood in term parturition, and Lin-CD45RA-DC precusors were separated and induced mature. Expression of Notch1 receptor and ligands in Lin-CD45RA-DC precusors was detected by Real-time PCR and was down-regulated by shRNA or γ-secretase inhibitor (GSI). Flow cytometry was used to analyze the subset of DCs with or without SKOV3 culture supernatants. IL-12 level was detected by ELISA.
    Results: Expression of Notch1 receptors and ligands were detected in Lin-CD45RA-DC precursor cells. The Notch1 mRNA in Lin-CD45RA-DC precursors can be down-regulated by shRNA-Notch1 lentivirus transfection and GSI. ShRNA mediated Notch 1 knock-down significantly differentiated less plasmcytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), but generated more myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs), and this would not be influenced by the supernatant of the ovarian carcinoma cell line. GSI had the same effect in the differentiation of pDC. The secretion of IL-12 significantly increased after Notch1 knock-down with or without SKOV3 culture supernatants.
    Conclusions: Notch1 is an important signaling pathway in the differentiation of Lin-CD45RA-DC precursor cells to plasmcytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). And this would not be affected by the supernatant of the ovarian carcinoma cell line.

    Abstract The white cloud mountain minnow Tanichthys albonubes Lin is an endemic species to southern China and the genus has two species, Tanichthys albonubes Lin and Tanichthys micagemmae Freyhof et Herder. The distribution range of T. albonubes Lin and T. micagemmae is very narrow and only found in the mountain brooks of Baiyunshan Mountain (White Cloud Mountain), Huaxian Country and the vicinity of Guangzhou in Guangdong Province and Halong, Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam respectively. The wild populations of this fish had already been on the verge of extinction when Shu-Yan Lin first discovered it in 1932 at the Baiyunshan Mountain. It was believed to be extinct in the wild because there were no reports of this fish in the wild since 1980. In September 2003, a small and isolated population of the fish was discovered in a mountain puddle in the north vicinity of Guangzhou. Additional studies are needed to determine the survival and propagation of the released fish. The protection of their natural habitat should be implemented.

    Abstract Objective: To elucidate the function of human CASK/LIN-2, a novel member of membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologs family (MAGUK), by using the yeast two-hybrid system(LexA) to screen the protein interacting with the guanylate kinase-like domain(GK) of hCASK and identify possible protein that might involve downstream signal transduction of hCASK.
    Methods: PCR strategy was used to amplify GK domain cDNA fragment of hCASK. The DNA was subcloned into pLexA to construct bait vector pLexA-GK. The pLexA-GK was transformed into yeast host strain EGY48; through testing the bait protein and a repression assay, it was demonstrated that the bait protein did not have transcription activation for leu and lacZ reporter genes, however it could enter nucleus, bind LexA operator. Human fetus brain cDNA library plasmids were transformed into EGY48 containing pLexA-GK and p8op-lacZ, and screened on plates of Gal/Raf his- trp- ura- leu- and Gal/Raf his- trp- ura-X-gal. The clones with galactose dependent leu+ and lacZ+ were isolated; their library plasmids were rescued by means of transforming E.coli KC8. These library plasmids were transformed into the yeast again to re-screen. The remaining positive clones were analyzed by PCR and restriction endonuclease. Finally two kinds of target DNA fragments were obtained.
    Results: The specificity testing indicated that the two target proteins could specially bind GK domain of hCASK. After DNA sequencing and BLASTn analysis on NCBI, it was shown that the two target DNA fragments, 732 and 683 bp, had high sequence similarity with human inhibitors of differentiation 1(Id1) mRNA, with identities of 97%(630/645) and 98%(656/666), respectively.
    Conclusion: GK domain of hCASK could specially interact with Id1 in yeast. Id1 might be a downstream signal molecule of hCASK, which might involve in regulation of cell differentiation.
