Human group IB phospholipase A2.(IB-PLA2. and its zymogen (proIB-PLA2. were purified from E. coli. Refolding was carried out by diluting the denatured forms of both IB-PLA2.and proIB-PLA2. with renaturation buffer in which the disulfide bonds were completely reduced. The refolding yield of proIB-PLA2.was increased by about 50% over that of the mature enzyme. The refolding of IB-PLA2.usually produced aggregates under normal conditions, as determined by light scattering. In addition, the unfolding experiments showed that the mature enzyme was more stable than the proenzyme toward denaturants in the presence of DTT. Results suggested that the N-terminal sequence rather than its conformation of human proIB-PLA2.played an important role in the refolding process.

To mimic human mood disorders, traditional chronic stresses and social defeat stress have been developed and widely applied. However, these active stresses do not mimic the emotional flaws induced by stresses, and their input levels vary greatly. Also, emotional stresses resulting from social unobtainability remain largely elusive due to the lack of useful animal models. In this study, we developed a mouse model named ‘‘opposite sex contact and isolation’’(OSCI) and found that OSCI induced significant social avoidance, anhedonia, and anxiety. These behavioral defects developed differently after 7 days of OSCI. The social avoidance behavior was self-curable while anxiety gradually worsened but was alleviated by re-pairing with the same female partner. Corresponding to the behavior changes, the plasma corticosterone and phosphorylated c AMP response element binding protein levels were decreased in the nucleus accumbens of the mice that experienced isolation. Together,this study has developed a novel strategy for depression/anxiety modeling and shows that OSCI may be a useful tool for studying the lovelorn/lovesick type of depression.
