Objective:To investigate the influence of concanavalin A(Con A) pretreatment on the development of the fulminant murine hepatitis induced by an adequate dose of Con A.Methods:An adequate dose of Con A(15 ?g/g.body.wt) was injected intravenously into C57BL/6 mice to provoke severe liver damage,an extensively-used murine hepatitis model.A low dose of Con A(3 ?g/g.body.wt) was administrated intravenously 12 h before injection with an adequate dose of Con A.Liver injury was evaluated by serum transaminase assay and H&E staining.Hepatic lymphocytes were analyzed by flow cytometry and the absolute amount of lymphocytes per liver was calculated.Results:Pretreatment with a low dose of Con A significantly inhibited Con A-induced liver injury.Both the percentage and the absolute number of liver CD3~+T cells in Con A-pretreated mice were lower than those of PBS-pretreated mice.The activation of liver CD3~+T cells in Con A-pretreated mice was also prominently inhibited.Conclusion:Con A pretreatment exerted the negative effect on the development of Con A-induced hepatitis,which may be result from the decreased recruitment of T cells into the liver.The underlying mechanisms are under investigation.

Objective:To investigate the changes of lung lymphocytes in OVA induced murine asthma model,and study the involvement of NK cells in this process.Methods:C57BL/6J(B6) mice were induced to develop asthma by intrapenitoneal injection of OVA with alum as adjuvant, and then inhalation of nebulized OVA. After collecting serum and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid(BALF),IL-4 level was determined by ELISA. The kinetics of pulmonary lymphocyte recruitment and cytokine release were detected by flow cytometry.Results:IL-4 expression increased in BALF after OVA nebulization, while there was no significant difference in serum. IFN-?,IL-4+NK cells accumulation in lung parenchymal tissues,and exhibited an evident NK2 shift in mice with asthma.Conclusion:NK cell involved in OVA-induced mouse asthma and NK2 shift accompany with Th2, indicating that NK2 played an important role in this process.

Objective To evaluate the effect of carbon fiber couch on dose distribution of radiotherapy planning and verification pass rate.Methods Establishing the carbon fiber treatment couch model in Pinnacle8.0m Treatment Planning system (TPS),and then this model was used to correct dose calculations of oblique fields in the treatment plans of 10 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma,10 cases of breast cancer and 10 cases of lung cancer and evaluate the effect of carbon fiber couch on the whole dose distribution of the plans.Then these plans were measured by three-dimensional dose verification equipment Delta4 to confirm the improvement extent of Gamma pass rate after considering the carbon fiber treatment couch.Results For the majority of plans,when the carbon fiber couch was taken into consideration,the target doses was significantly reduced (4772 cGy-7266 cGy vs.4859 cGy-7347 cGy,P=0.000-0.002) and the relative deviation of D95 was 1% to 3%.Measurement results of Delta4 showed that Gamma pass rate (3 mm/3% criteria) increased in all plans (96.4%-98.8% vs.93.4%-97.3%,P =0.000),some of that were up to 5 percentage when the couch model was applied.Conclusions Target doses will be overestimated if the treatment couch is ignored in TPS measurement.,However it should arouse enough attention when the disease with smaller doses corresponding gradient.

Objective:To investigate the influence of IL-2 on the apoptosis of activated and inactivated lymphocytes.Methods:Selected an appropriate system as the model of activated lymphocytes by detecting the expression of Fas and FasL in two systems of one way MLR using RT-PCR. Detected the apoptosis of activated and inactivated lymphocytes after the stimulation of IL-2 with the methods of FITC-Annexin-V/PI staining.The resultaint change of membrane Fas was evaluated by FACS,and the lymphocytes from doner and acceptor were distinguished by CFSE staining.Results:To the inactivated spleen lymphocytes, exogenous IL-2 inhibited their apoptosis and the expression of Fas; while to the spleen lymphocytes activated by mixed lymphocyte reaction, exogenous IL-2 promoted their apoptosis and upregulated the expression of Fas, which did the same both to the doner cells and the acceptor cells.Conclusion:IL-2 can inhibit the apoptosis of inactivated lymphocytes, and promote the apoptosis of activated lymphocytes.These effects have something to do with the change of expression of Fas.
