Aim To establish an allogenetic mouse skin trans-plant model,in order to provide a research model for immunosup-pressive drugs. Methods Skins from the ears of C57BL/6 mice were transplanted to the back of BALB/c mice and skin isografts ( BALB/c mice to BALB/c mice) were used as control. Cyclos-porin A( CsA) was used as a model compound to test the imm-nosuppresive effect on allogenetic graft rejection. Following the transplation and CsA treatment, the graft rejection score and graft skin survival rate were quantified. Four and nine days after transplantation,serum IL-4,IL-12 and IFN-γ levels were meas-ured using ELISA kits. Twelve days after transplantation, mice were sacrificed. The weight of spleen and thymus was obtained, and CD4 + and CD8 + population of spleenic T cells were ana-lyzed using flow cytometer. Histological features were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin( HE) staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-em-bedded graft skins. Results After transplantion, the graft rejec-tion score increased and graft skin survival rate decreased gradu-allly. Serum IL-12 and IFN-γ levels of allograft mice increased markedly. Compared with those of isograft mice, mice with skin allograft displayed a significant increase in the percentage of the CD8 + T cell subpopulation. Remarkable inflammation, such as edema, inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in allograft mice. Compared with saline treated mice, CsA significantly re-duced the graft rejection score and improved survival rate of skin grafts. And also, CsA treated mice had smaller spleen and thy-mus. Mice that received high doses of CsA had significantly less CD8 + T cells than those treated with saline. Moreover, allograft skins in mice that received CsA had less inflammation. Conclu-sions Allogenetic mouse skin transplantation exhibits acute graft rejection. CsA can inhibit the rejection in a dose dependent manner.

The authors have analyzed the present situation of teaching experiment in higher vocational education of china. And then the process of researching and practicing the basic medical experimental technique curriculum reform has been discussed from the aspects such as the teaching aims,curriculum setup,teaching content selection,teaching methods and education evaluation system for the purpose of exploring the experimental teaching mode to fulfill the requirements of the comprehensive career competence of higher vocational education.

Objective To establish the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods for the quantitative determination of IgG antibodies against diphtheria (DT) and tetanus (TT).MethodsPurified diphtheria toxiod and tetanus toxoid were respectively used as the coating antigens,the human-derived serum antibody standard substance of DT and TT served as the standard substance.The dose-response curves of the tested samples and standard substance were fitted.Then the two quantitative ELISA methods for determining the antibody to DT (Anti-DT) and antibody to TT (Anti-TT) were established with the parallel lines method.Then the methodological verification and application study were conducted.Results The validation results of the two quantitative ELISA measurement methods were in accordance with the regulations.The quantity limit of ELISA method for quantitative detection of Anti-DT demonstrated to be 0.084 mIU/mL,its average recovery rate was 97.6%.The intra-assay coefficient of variation(CV) and inter-assay CV of this Anti-DT assay were ≤ 3.40% and ≤5.05%,respectively.The quantity limit of ELISA method for quantitative detection of Anti-TT demonstrated to be 0.175 mIU/mL,its average recovery rate was 97.5%.The intra-assay CV and inter-assay CV of this Anti-TT assay were ≤ 2.42% and ≤5.58%,respectively.These two methods were applied for the immunogenicity evaluation after infantile basic immunization by diphtheria and tetanus vaccines.Conclusion The two established quantitative ELISA methods demonstrate high accuracy and good reproducibility,which are suitable for the ordinary laboratory to carry out the work and can be used in the serological effect evaluation after diphtheria and tetanus vaccine immunization and epidemiological study of diphtheria and tetanus disease.

Based on recent studies which have shown that gut microbiota plays an important role in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the article elaborates on the relationship of NAFLD with intestinal endotoxemia, short-chain fatty acids, bile acid metabolism, and endogenous ethanol. By illustrating the author′s research progress in the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) regulation of gut microbiota and NAFLD treatment, the article proposes that this approach is not only a clinical practice of TCM in the modern era, it may also become a new strategy in the treatment of NAFLD.
