Objective: To observe the effect of HPV16E7 specific expression vector on cell proliferation in cervical carcinoma SiHa cells.

Methods: The HPV16E7 siRNA expression vector and empty expression vector were transfected into SiHa cells by liposome. The effects on E7 mRNA and E7 protein expression, cell cycle phase and cell growth rate were examined respectively by real-time RT-PCR, FCM and MTT assay.

Results: The HPV16E7 siRNA expression vector significantly inhibited the expression levels of E7 mRNA and E7 protein, the inhibition rates being 92.15% and 84.30% respectively. It also inhibited the transition from G, phase to S phase and the growth of SiHa cell line.

Conclusion: HPV16E7 specific siRNA expression vector could specifically and efficiently inhibit the expression of E7 gene and hence it could regulate cell cycle and inhibit cell proliferation in cervical carcinoma SiHa cells. siRNA expression vector

Gene therapy with Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vectors requires knowledge of their tropism within the body. Here we analyze the tropism of ten naturally occurring AAV serotypes (AAV3B, AAV4, AAV5, AAV6, AAV7, AAV8, AAV9, AAVrh8, AAVrh10 and AAVrh74) following systemic delivery into male and female mice. A transgene expressing ZsGreen and Cre recombinase was used to identify transduction in a cell-dependent manner based on fluorescence.

Background: Fibrosis of the connective tissue in the vaginal wall predominates in pelvic organ prolapse (POP), which is characterized by excessive fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and abnormal deposition of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Our study aimed to investigate the effect of ECM stiffness on vaginal fibroblasts and to explore the role of methyltransferase 3 (METTL3) in the development of POP.

Methods: Polyacrylamide hydrogels were applied to create an ECM microenvironment with variable stiffness to evaluate the effects of ECM stiffness on the proliferation, differentiation, and expression of ECM components in vaginal fibroblasts.

Site-directed mutagenesis is a fundamental tool indispensable for protein and plasmid engineering. An important technological question is how to achieve the efficiency at the ideal level of 100%. Based on complementary primer pairs, the QuickChange method has been widely used, but it requires significant improvements due to its low efficiency and frequent unwanted mutations.

Ischemic stroke leads to permanent damage to the affected brain tissue, with strict time constraints for effective treatment. Predictive biomarkers demonstrate great potential in the clinical diagnosis of ischemic stroke, significantly enhancing the accuracy of early identification, thereby enabling clinicians to intervene promptly and reduce patient disability and mortality rates. Furthermore, the application of predictive biomarkers facilitates the development of personalized treatment plans tailored to the specific conditions of individual patients, optimizing treatment outcomes and improving prognoses.

Salmon calcitonin is a small peptide hormone synthesised and released by a specialised gland called ultimobranchial gland in fish. This hormone has been used to treat osteoporosis for over 50 years. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of five repeats of salmon calcitonin (5sCT) produced in two different hosts (bacteria and fish cell line).
