Eucalyptus dieback disease, caused by Cylindrocladiumscoparium, has occurred in last few years in largeEucalyptus planting areas in China and other countries. Rapid, simple, and reliable diagnostic techniquesare desired for the early detection of Eucalyptus diebackof C. scoparium prior to formulation of efficientcontrol plan. For this purpose, three PCR-based methodsof nested PCR, multiplex PCR, loop-mediatedisothermal amplification (LAMP) were developed fordetection of C. scoparium based on factor 1-alpha (tef1)and beta-tubulin gene in this study. All of the threemethods showed highly specific to C. scoparium. Thesensitivities of the nested PCR and LAMP were muchhigher than the multiplex PCR. The sensitivity of multiplexPCR was also higher than regular PCR. C. scopariumcould be detected within 60 min from infectedEucalyptus plants by LAMP, while at least 2 h wasneeded by the rest two methods. Using different Eucalyptustissues as samples for C. scoparium detection,all of the three PCR-based methods showed muchbetter detection results than regular PCR. Base on theresults from this study, we concluded that any of thethree PCR-based methods could be used as diagnostictechnology for the development of efficient strategiesof Eucalyptus dieback disease control. Particularly,LAMP was the most practical method in field applicationbecause of its one-step and rapid reaction, simpleoperation, single-tube utilization, and simple visualizationof amplification products.

Background: Myofibroblasts play an important role in the development of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF). In the current study, we investigate the effect of curcumin on growth and apoptosis of myofibroblasts derived from human oral mucosa. Methods: Myofibroblasts were generated by incubating fibroblasts, obtained from human oral mucosa, with transforming growth factor-${\beta}1$ (TGF-${\beta}1$). MTT, PI staining, and FACS assays were used to investigate curcumin's effect on proliferation and cell cycle of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. Annexin V/PI binding and FACS assays were used to examine apoptosis of myofibroblasts, Western blotting to determine the levels of Bcl-2 and Bax, and enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay was employed to examine the levels of collagen type I and III in the supernatants of myofibroblasts. Results: Curcumin inhibits proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts; it also disturbs the cell cycle, induces apoptosis and decreases the generation of collagen type I and III in myofibroblasts, which are more sensitive to its effects than fibroblasts. Curcumin induces apoptosis in myofibroblasts by down-regulating the Bcl-2/ Bax ratio. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate the antifibrotic effect of curcumin in vitro. It may therefore be a candidate for the treatment of OSF.

Therapeutic failure in prostate cancer (PC) is believed to result from its unusually invasive and metastatic nature. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are essential in the tumor microenvironment. We intended to study the role of CAF-derived exosomes in the context of PC and the potential regulatory mechanism associated with miR-423-5p and GREM2. CAF-derived exosomes decreased the chemosensitivity of parental PC cells and enhanced the drug resistance of drug-resistant cells. PC-associated fibroblast-derived exosomes carrying miR-423-5p increased the resistance of PC to taxane by inhibiting GREM2 through the TGF-β pathway. Inhibition of the TGF-β pathway partially reversed the increased drug resistance in PC cells induced by CAF-derived exosomes. Inhibition of miR-423-5p enhanced the drug sensitivity of PC cells in vivo. We showed that CAF-secreted exosomal miR-423-5p promoted chemotherapy resistance in PC by targeting GREM2 through the TGF-β pathway. This study may allow the development of novel approaches for PC.

Yun-Shan Fang,Ming-Hui Yang,Le Cai,Jia-Peng Wang,Tian-Peng Yin,Jing Yu,Zhong-Tao Ding 대한약학회 2018 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.41 No.11
Two new phenylpropanoids, retusiusines A (1) and B (2), and a pair of new phenylpropyl enantiomers, (±)-retusiusine C (3a and 3b), together with eight known compounds, dihydroconiferyl dihydro-p-coumarate (4), methyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate (5), 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propanoic acid (6), dihydroferulic acid (7), methyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl) propionate (8), 3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-propenal (9), trans-p-coumaric acid (10) and dihydroconiferyl alcohol (11), were isolated from the tubers of Bulbophyllum retusiusculum. The absolute configurations of the new compounds were determined by calculating their electronic circular dichroism (ECD), spectra and specific optical rotations and comparing the calculated values with the experimental data. Compound 2 exhibited potent antifungal activity against Candida albicans (16 μg/mL). Compound 3 showed moderate antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis (64 μg/mL).

Linjie Tian,Ming Yang,Shan Chang,Jianqi Qian 대한토목학회 2020 KSCE JOURNAL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING Vol.24 No.6
In this study, a new method of replaceable supporting member within orthotropic steel box girder is proposed in order to reduce stress amplitude and improve fatigue life of orthotropic steel box girder. The component model was established by ABAQUS, and the experiment was conducted to analyze stress amplitude of easily fatigue cracking areas of orthotropic steel box girder with and without the supporting member. In addition, the fatigue life was analyzed and predicted. The comparison results show that the finite element analytical results are in good agreement with the experimental results. The reduced proportion of stress amplitude of U rib, T rib grooves and mid-span of top plate of orthotropic steel box girder range from 40% to 60% and 20% to 40%, respectively. The analytical results show that the stress amplitude of orthotropic steel box girder can be reduced by the similar extent with the addition of the same supporting member under different loading pressure; The supporting member can improve the fatigue life of orthotropic steel box girder pertinently, which is simple in construction and low in cost, and can provide suggestions for solving fatigue problem of orthotropic steel box girder in engineering practice.
Comparative RNA-seq analysis and ceRNA network of genistein-treated GT1-7 neurons

Background Genistein is an isofl avone and phytoestrogen originated from soybean and soy products. Due to the close structural and functional proximity towards 17β-estradiol, genistein has been suggested to infl uence endocrine and reproductive systems. Previous studies showed that genistein could aff ect hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis and impact gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion in hypothalamic GT1-7 neurons. However, the underlying mechanism remains mostly unknown. Objectives Comparative transcriptomic analyses of mRNAs, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) were performed in genistein-treated GT1-7 cells by high-throughput RNA sequencing. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks were constructed based on potential interactions in lncRNAs, miRNAs and mRNAs. Results Compared to the control, 1134, 1126 and 30 diff erentially expressed mRNA, lncRNA and miRNAs were identifi ed. The most signifi cantly upregulated mRNA was growth-regulating estrogen receptor binding 1 ( Greb1 ), possibly related to the increased levels of estrogen receptors ( Esr1 and Esr2 ). Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses demonstrated that genistein interfered with cell cycle, metabolic processes, as well as GnRH and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways in GT1-7 cells. CeRNA networks predicted that prostatic cancer-related miRNA mmu-miR-212-5p and its targeted genes Phf2 and Aldh3b1 might be associated with the regulation of genisteininduced GnRH secretion in GT1-7 cells, and 27 lncRNAs could completely interact with mmu-miR-212-5p and downregulate the transcription of target genes. Conclusion Results from the study could provide potential targets of both mRNA and non-coding RNAs for further studies to explore the endocrine-interfering eff ects of genistein.

Background: Our aim was to conduct a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed and docetaxel for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: We systematically searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, China Biology Medicine Database for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy and toxicities of pemetrexed versus docetaxel as a treatment for advanced NSCLC. We limited the languages to English and Chinese. Two reviewers independently screened articles to identify eligible trials according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and assessed the methodological quality of included trials, and then extracted data. The meta-analysis was performed using STATA12.0. Results: Six RCTs involving 1,414 patients were identified. We found that there was no statistically significant differences in overall response rate, survival time, progression-free survival, disease control rate, and 1-2yr survival rate (p>0.050) but it is worthy of mention that patients in the pemetrexed arms had significantly higher 3-yr survival rate (P=0.002). With regard to the grade 3 or 4 hematological toxicity, compared with docetaxel, pemetrexed led to lower rate of grade 3-4 febrile neutropenia, neutropenia, and leukocyts toxicity (p<0.001). There was no significant difference in anemia between the two arms (p=0.08). In addition, pemetrexed led to higher rate of grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia toxicity (p=0.03). As for the non-hematological toxicities, compared with docetaxel, pemetrexed group had lower rate of grade 3-4 diarrhea and alopecia. Conclusions: Pemetrexed was almost as effective as docetaxel in patients with advanced NSCLC. At the same time, pemetrexed might increase the 3-yr survival rate. As for safety, pemetrexed led to lower rate of grade 3-4 febrile neutropenia, neutropenia, leukocytes, diarrhea and alopecia toxicity. However, it was associated with a higher rate of grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia.
