Objective To evaluate the feasibility of ~ 125 Iodine -labeled IL-2 scintigraphic methods for the imaging of lymphocyte infiltration of the Langerhans′ islets. Methods ~ 125 I-IL2 was injected intravenously to pre-diabetic female NOD mice (aged 16-17 weeks)and female Balb/c mice as control. Animals were sacrificed at different time points and the radioactivity in different organs was measured.~ 131 I-IL-2 was injected iv to 3 pre-diabetic female NOD mice, and pancreas was imaged through SPECT after 30 minutes injection. Results The mean radio activities in the pancreas of NOD mice were significantly higher as compared to those of Balb/c mice at time points from 30 to 120 minutes (P

In this study, immunotoxin (IT) was prepared by conjugating BAC5 and CT with SPDP. The effects of IT on NPC and its mechanisms were explored using double labeled with radioactive nuclides, immunography and electron microscope technique in vivo and in vitro. The specific concentration of BAC5 in the tumor area showed. The radioactivity rate of tumor/nontumor (T/NT) was up to 10.26. IT had cytotoxic effects both on the cultured CNE-2 cell line and tumor multicell spheroides. In vivo, the preliminary result indicated that IT also had a inhibitory action on the nude mice models bearing human NPC (Reported in another article). Under electron microscope, the necrosis and apoptosis of tumor cells were found. The membranes of most tumor cells were found intacted not or corrosined, some of them had the character of apoptosis, including reduce of tumor cells membrane villi, condensation of cytoplasm and pyknosis or cleavage of nuclear. There were many of apoptosis bodies, which were occasionally phagocytosed by tumor cells. The infiltration of immunocytoes in tumor tissue could be seen. The results indicated that BAC5 can specifically combine with NPC cells and BAC5-CT has the inhibitory effect on NPC in vitro and in vivo, mechanism of which may be related to the effects that ‘warhead' CT dissolute the membrane of tumor cells directly, or/and IT promote the infiltration of immunocytoes so as to induce the apoptosis of tumor cell.

METHODS: The experimental models were established by means of histamine and indomethacin, area of ulcer was measured and quantity of gastric mucosa secretion of rats was analyzed. RESULTS: Pingkui Powder could reduce areas of ulcers, promote the gastric mucosa secretion. CONCLUSION: Pingkui Powder can improve the healing of acute ulcer and promote gastric mucosa secretion.

Aim To investigate the effect of Aminophyllin e(AM) on expression of Interleukin-5 receptor ?(IL-5R?), IL-3R?, granulocy te- macrophage-colony-stimulating factor receptor ?(GM-CSFR?) and common ? receptor(?cR) in eosinophils(Eos) of BALF in asthmatic guinea pigs, and mech anism of AM promoting Eos apoptosis. Methods 18 guinea pigs wer e divided into three groups randomly, normal control group, asthma group and AM -treated group. Asthma model of guinea pigs was sensitized by ovalbumin. Hypode nse Eos(HEos) and normodense Eos(NEos) were purified from BALF by gradients of p ercoll. Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL. mRNA expression of IL-5R?, IL-3R?, GM-CSFR? and ?cR in Eos were measured by RT-PCR and hybridization.Re sults Apoptosis of HEos and NEos in asthma group(4?2,3?2) were low er than that in normal group(8?2,7?2)(P

Objective To investigate the impact of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and cisplatin on miR-449b expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and elucidate the molecular mechanism of 5-FU and cisplatin inhibiting the migration of HCC cells.Methods Real-time qPCR analysis was conducted to determine the expression of miR-449b in 50 HCC tissues.RT-PCR assay was performed to detect the expression of miR-449b in HCC cells with 5-FU and cisplatin treatment.The migration of HCC cells with the overexpression of miR-449b was determined by wound-healing assay;Rescue assay was employed to investigate the correlation between 5-FU & cisplatin, miR-449b and the migration capacity of HCC cells;The putative targets of miR-449b were predicted and validated using target prediction programs and immunoblots.Results The expression of miR-449b decreased in HCC tissues (P<0.0001).miR-449b expression increased in HCC cells upon the treatment of 5-FU and cisplatin (P<0.001).The overexpression of miR-449b inhibited the migration of HCC cells (P<0.001).Rescue assay revealed that inhibition of miR-449b to prevent 5-FU and cisplatin induction resulted in suppressed migration in SMMC7721 cells(P<0.05).Catenin-δ was a functional target of miR-449b.Conclusions 5-FU and cisplatin inhibit the migration of HCC cells at least partly via inducing the expression of miR-449b.

Objective To investigate the role of costimulatory molecules CD28/B7 in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Methods The expression of CD28, CD80 and CD86 was detected in the lesional skin of 22 cases by immunohistochemical technique (ABC), and in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of 17 cases by flow cytometry respectively. As control, normal skin and lymphocytes from peripheral blood of healthy volunteers were also tested. Results The immunohistochemistry study showed that the expression of CD28, CD80 and CD86 in the psoriatic lesions was significantly higher than that in the normal controls (P .05). Conclusion CD28, CD80 and CD86 might play a certain role in the pathogenesis in psoriasis.

BACKGROUND: The association between the ingredients of perfusate and its protection on corneal endothelium is always the hot issue in ophthalmology and pharmacology.OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of different perfusates on the structure and function of rabbit corneal endothelium during phacoemulsification.DESIGN: A randomized grouping designed and controlled animal trial.SETTINGS: Laboratory of experimental animal center of Jinzhou Medical College and the laboratory of experimental animal operation of an urban hospital.MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in the laboratory of experimental animal center of Jinzhou Medical College and the laboratory of experimental animal operation of Jinzhou Yadong Ophthalmology Hospital from September 2004 to March 2005. Sixteen pure Japanese big-ear rabbits of 3.5 months old, clean degree, were randomly divided into four groups with 4 rabbits in each group: normal control group, saline group, shike group and balanced salt solution group. Shike was produced by Shenyang Qixing Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd.; Balanced salt solution by Alcon Company (USA).METHODS: The rabbits were intraperitoneally anesthetized with 100 ml/L chloral hydrate (3 mL/kg), 4% oxybuprocaine hydrochloride eye drops were used for surface anesthesia of eyes, and both eyes were operated. Alcon phacoemulsification apparatus (USA) and routine microsurgical instruments were used. A 3.5-mm incision was made on sclerotic tunnel at 2 mm posterior to superior limbus of sclera, punctured into the anterior chamber, then 0.25 mL Viscoat (Alcon) was infused. Curvilinear capsulorhexis was performed with the diameter of about 5 mm. The phacoemulsification head was placed in the center to suck out the crystal nucleus and cortex, and the incision was closed after the operation. The morphology of the corneal endothelium was quantitatively determined using contact specular microscope preoperativley and 6 hours postoperatively, including the density and area of corneal endothelium,percent of hexagonal cells and the coefficient of variation. At 6 hours postoperatively, trypan blue-alizarin red active staining was performed, and the changes of slight structures of corneal endothelium were observed under light microscope.MATN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Quantitative analysis of the forms morphology of corneal endothelium (density and area of corneal endothelium, percent of hexagonal cells and the coefficient of variation); ② Characters of forms and structures of corneal endothelium.RESULTS: All the 16 rabbits were involved in the analysis of results. ① There were no significant differences in the morphological indexes among the four groups preoperatively. ② At 6 hours postoperatively, density and areas of endothelial cells, percent of hexagonal cells and the coefficient of variation were significantly lower in the saline group,shike group and balanced salt solution group than in the normal control group (P ＜ 0.05), and no significant difference was observed between the shike group and balanced salt solution group (P ＞ 0.05). ③ The structural changes of corneal endothelium in the shike group and in balanced salt solution group were alleviated more significantly than those in the saline control group, no necrosis was observed.CONCLUSTON: In phacoemulsification, the damage of perfusate to corneal endothelium is a chemical one. Under the same surgerical conditions, domestic perfusate of shike is as effective as balanced salt solution in protecting endothelial cells.
