Chinese Journal of Immunology 1985;0(06):-
100 cases of patients with brain tumor were tested with lymphocyte transformation testand erythrocyte-rosette forming cell,the results showed the lymphocyte transfor-mation test and Erythrocyte-Rosette Forming Cell of the patients with brain tumorwas lower than that of the normal value,of the 100 postoperative brain tumor cases75 were treated with blood-enriching decoction of Angelica Sinensis and 25 were usedas control.The lymphocyte transformation test and erythrocyte-Rosette formingcell of the treated group showed a remarkable rise(P

The O_2 collision cell technology was accepted to move the analyte to new oxide line position in stead of attenuating the double charge ions directly. A minus kinetic energy discrimination configuration was used to promote the oxide ions passing. An isobaric interference on new oxide line was corrected by a mathematic equation. It was found the enhancing effect of organic reagent benefit to As and Se oxide ion signal also. The 1% methanol sample solution was applied to improve the analyte sensitivity. The detection limits were 4.5 ng/L for As and 6.2 ng/L for Se. The background equivalent concentration was 0.022 μg/L for As and 0.025 μg/L for Se. The analysis errors enter into the allowed range of the standard material, which greatly improve the analytical accuracy of the actual sample.

Objective To observe the effects of hydrogen sulfide on hepatic and renal injury induced by thioacetamide (TAA).Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were equally and randomly divided into TAA induced model group ,control group,TAA +sodium hydrogen sulfide group , and TAA +propargylglycine group .TAA was given by intraperitoneal injection to the model group , sodium hydrogen sulfide and propargylglycine groups at the dose of 600 mg/kg on the first day, and at the dose of 300 mg/kg 24 hours later.Hydrogen sulfide sodium at the dose of 0.15 mmol/kg and propargylg-lycine at the dose of 30 mg/kg were injected abdominally 1 h before TAA injection.The dose of these two agents was halved in the next 24 h.All the rats were sacrificed and specimens were collected to test hydrogen sulfide , and hepatic and renal function.Urine after the first 24 hours was collected after the administration of TAA .Results The structure of the liver in TAA group was disordered , especially in sodium hydrogen sulfide group .Liver function of TAA group was severely damaged (ALT:980.0 ±32.0 vs 38.3 ±10.6 U/L),and deteriorated with the application of sodium hydrogen sulfide (ALT:1095.6 ± 684.2 U/L), but recovered (ALT:66.3 ±8.32 U/L) with propargylglycine application.Compared with the normal group, the renal function in TAA group was significantly injured ,but the urea nitrogen and creatinine in sodium hydrosulfide group were reduced more remarkably than in TAA group (BUN:8.4 ±1.9 vs 11.62 ±6.0 mmol/L,Cr:32.6 ±8.2 vs 42.8 ±4.4 μmol/L, P<0.05).Nevertheless, creatinine was increased in propargylglycine group ( Cr 56.7 ±14.9 vs 30.8 ±4.4μmol/L, P<0.05).The urine content within 24 hours was more significantly decreased in TAA group than in the normal group (9.2 ±2.5 vs 20.5 ±6.7 ml, P<0.01), which was mildly recovered in sodium hydrogen sulfide group (11.7 ± 1.5 vs 9.2 ±2.5 , P<0.05) but further decreased (4.2 ±1.3 vs 9.2 ±2.5, P<0.01) in the propargylglycine group . Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide can alleviates renal injury while aggravating liver injury induced by thioacetamide .

Objective To evaluate the effect of melatonin pretreament on cell apoptosis and autophagy during lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Thirty-six adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 230-280 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=12 each) using a random number table method:sham operation group (group Sham),pulmonary I/R group (LIR group) and melatonin pretreatment group (MLT group).Lung I/R injury model was established by clamping the left hilum of lung for 60 min followed by 2 h reperfusion in LIR and MLT groups.Melatonin 1 mg/100 g was intraperitoneally injected at 15 min before clamping the left hilum of lung in group MLT.The rats were sacrificed at the end of reperfusion,the left lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of protein concentrations.Lungs were removed for microscopic examination of the pathological changes (with a light microscope) which were scored and for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio),cell apoptosis (by TUNEL) and expression of Bcl-2,Bax,microtubule-related protein 1 light chain 3B Ⅰ (LC3B Ⅰ),LC3B Ⅱ,Beclin-1 and phosphorylated mammal rapamycin target protein receptor (p-mTOR) (using Western blot).The apoptosis index,Bcl-2/Bax ratio and LC3B Ⅱ/LC3B Ⅰ ratio were calculated.Results Compared with Sham group,the protein concentration in BALF,W/D ratio of lung tissues,apoptosis index,LC3B Ⅱ/LC3B Ⅰ ratio and Beclin-1 expression were significantly increased,and Bcl-2/Bax ratio and p-mTOR expression were decreased in LIR and MLT groups (P<0.05).Compared with LIR group,the protein concentration in BALF,W/D ratio of lung tissues,apoptosis index,LC3B Ⅱ/LC3B Ⅰ ratio and Beclin-1 expression were significantly decreased,and Bcl-2/Bax ratio and p-mTOR expression were increased in MLT group (P<0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which melatonin pretreatment mitigates lung I/R injury may be related to inhibiting cell apoptosis and autophagy in rats.
