Article Abstract

Objective: To construct an eukaryotic expression plasmid of human TNF receptor-associated factor 3 in teracting protein 3(TRAF3IP3) gene and identify its expression in HEK293 cells.

Methods: Human TRAF3IP3 cDNA was amplified by RT-PCR from bone marrow mononuclear cells. After digested by restriction enzymes XhoI and SalI, the complete open reading frame of TRAF3IP3 gene was inserted into pIRES2-EGFP eukaryotic expression vector with a Flag tag at the N-terminus. The recombinant plasmid was identified by double restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing analysis. The constructed TRAF3IP3 eukaryotic expression plasmid was transfected into HEK293 cells by calcium phosphate precipitation method. The expression of green fluorescence protein was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Real-time PCR and Western blotting were performed to detect the expression of Flag-TRAF3IP3 fusion protein.

Results: Double restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing analysis revealed that TRAF3IP3 eukaryotic expression plasmid was constructed successfully. Green fluorescence was detected in transfected HEK293 cells. Real-time PCR showed TRAF3IP3 mRNA was expressed at a high level. The approximate 62 kD Flag-TRAF3IP3 fusion protein was found by Western blotting.

Conclusion: Human TRAF3IP3 eukaryotic expression plasmid pIRES2-EGFP-TRAF3IP3 has been constructed successfully, which provides a foundation for the gene function research of TRAF3IP3.

Emerging evidence highlights the significance of peripheral inflammation in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and suggests the gut as a viable therapeutic target. This study aimed to explore the neuroprotective effects of the probiotic formulation VSL#3 and its underlying mechanism in a PD mouse model induced by MPTP. Following MPTP administration, the striatal levels of dopamine and its metabolites, as along with the survival rate of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, were significantly reduced in PD mice.

Introduction Recently, immune cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME) have become crucial in regulating cancer progression and treatment responses. The dynamic interactions between tumors and immune cells are emerging as a promising strategy to activate the host's immune system against various cancers. The development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) involve complex biological processes, with the role of the TME and tumor phenotypes still not fully understood.

Selenium is an essential element with various industrial and medical applications, hence the current considerable attention towards the genesis and utilization of SeNPs. SeNPs and other nanoparticles could be achieved via physical and chemical methods, but these methods would not only require expensive equipment and specific reagents but are also not always environment friendly. Biogenesis of SeNPs could therefore be considered as a less troublesome alternative, which opens an excellent window to the selenium and nanoparticles' world.

Fluorescent biosensors offer a powerful tool for tracking and quantifying protein activity in living systems with high temporospatial resolution. However, the expression of genetically encoded fluorescent proteins can interfere with endogenous signaling pathways, potentially leading to developmental and physiological abnormalities. The EKAREV-NLS mouse model, which carries a FRET-based biosensor for monitoring extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity, has been widely utilized both in vivo and in vitro across various cell types and organs.

Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) is a debilitating chronic outcome of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Although FTO has been reported as a possible intervention target of TBI, its precise roles in the PTE remain incompletely understood. Here we used mild or serious mice TBI model to probe the role and molecular mechanism of FTO in PTE.
