Objective To observe the role of human hepatocarcinoma HepG2 cell culture supernatant on T lymphocyte of the activation, proliferation, IL-2 secretion and inducing apoptosis in vitro. To explore the mechanism of immune escape in tumor.Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were cultured with different concentration of tumor cell culture supernatant. Cell proliferation was examined with standard cytometry and MTT. The apoptotic rate and immune phenotype were analyzed by FACS. The level of IL-2 was determined with ELISA.Results Adding HepG2 supernatant, there was no significant influence in activation of lymphocyte, but the proliferation rat and the secretion of IL-2 were obviously decreased. The lymphocyte apoptosis rate was raised.Conclusion The tumor cell may produce a certain soluble protein, thus escape from the immune surveillance of tumor-bearing host.

Objective:To explore the role of CD28 in the activation of human peripheral blood ?? +T cells by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) low molecular peptide antigen in vitro Methods:Mtb antigen and anti CD28 monoclonal antibody (mAb) were used as signal 2 to stimulate the r? + T cell from PBMC the expression of CD28 molecule on ?? +T cells, proliferation rate of ?? +T cells and expression of CD69 molecule on activated ?? +T cells were analyzed by using flow cytometry Results:CD28 molecule was expressed on 50% of ?? +T cells Neither Anti CD28 nor Mtb antigen alone, but both presence, could stimulate ?? +T cells activation and proliferation CD69 molecule was expressed on activated ?? + T cells.Conclusion:The CD28 molecule could provide the costimulatory signal in the full activation of ?? +T cells by Mtb low molecular peptide antigen CD69 molecule was also an early activation marker of ?? +T cells

[Objective]To investigate the possibility of using poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate)(PHBV)as scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering and to compare the engineered cartilage generated in vitro with those in nude mice modles.[Method]PHBV porous scaffolds were fabricated using a compression moulding,thermal processing and salt particulate leaching methods.Chondrocytes isolated from articular cartilage were seeded into porous PHBV scaffolds.After incubation for 2 weeks in vitro,chondrocytes-PHBV constructs were implanted subcutaneously in the dorsum of athymic nude mice.Control groups were established by subcutaneous implantation of PHBV alone.The implants harvested after in vivo incubation of 4 and 8 weeks and cell-scaffolds cultured in vitro for 6 and 10 weeks were respectively examined histologically.Chondrocytes cultured for 3,7 and 14 days on the scaffolds were examined by SEM.[Result]SEM showed that chondrocytes could aggregate and synthesize extracellular matrix on PHBV scaffolds.Both specimens harvested from nude mice and those cultured in vitro demonstrated new cartilage formation,while characteristics of the engineered cartilage generated in vivo were more typical.Those from control groups showed no cartilage formation.[Conclusion]PHBV can be used as scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering and nude mice modle seems to facilitate chondrogenesis compared with that in vitro system.

Objective To investigate the influence of proprioceptive training of hemiplegic stroke patients on their visually compensatory dependence.Methods Twenty stroke patients without vestibular abnormalities were recruited.They were able to walk for 10 meters.All the patients underwent 4 weeks of rehabilitation training including proprioceptive training,treadmill exercises and isometric muscle strengthening.Static standing balance test was performed before and after 4 weeks of treatment.The parameters such as the anteroposterior and mediolateral sway of the center of gravity,center of gravity distribution were analyzed before and after the treatment,taking into consideration of visual feedback (eyes open or closed) by using t-test and multiple linear regression analysis.Results Visual feedback had significant no influence on the anteroposterior sway of center of gravity before and after training (P ＞ 0.05) ; Visual feedback had significant influence on mediolateral sway of center of gravity.Rehabilitation training significantly improved the mediolateral sway in opened-eye standing (P ＜ 0.05) but not closedeye standing (P ＞ 0.05).Visual feedback played significant role in center of gravity distribution after training (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Visual compensation is of significant influence on the mediolateral sway.Proprioceptive training can help decrease the patient's dependence on visual feedback and enhance the patient's balance ability.

Objective To analyze the potential association between the single ucleotide polymorphisms(SNP) of the vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) gene with the risk of endometriosis by meta-analysis.Methods Published case-control studies about the influence of VEGF polymorphisms on endometriosis were searched and screened in Medline,the Cochrane library,China National Knowledge Internet(CNKI),Chinese Biological Medicine Disk ( CBM ),data base of Wanfang and Foreign Medical Journal Full-Text Serv ice(FMJS).RevMan 5.0 software was used for meta-analysis.Results Finally,there were 9 literatures including 1610 endometrisis patients and 1643 controls cases,which were eligible for the criteria to investigating the VEGF SNP about - 460C/T,+ 405C/G and + 936C/T.The results of metaanalysis showed that there was no evidence for association between endometriosis and the VEGF -460C/T SNP in the genotype or allele frequencies distribution ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Significant differences were found between the frequencies distribution of VEGF + 405CC genotype( P =0.009,OR =1.45,95％ CI:1.10 - 1.91 ) and + 405 C allele ( P =0.020,OR =1.19,95 ％ CI:1.03 - 1.38 ),also between the + 936CC genotype ( P =0.050,OR=0.81,95％CI:0.66-1.00) and +936T allele (P=0.040,OR=1.20,95％CI:1.01 -1.43).Conclusions The VEGF + 405C/G and + 936C/T SNP may be associated with the risk of endometriosis.Women carrying the + 405C or the + 936T allele could significantly increase the risk of developing endometriosis.

CONCLUSION:The method of rapid non-destructive analyzing Compound Danshen Tablet is explored.

Aim To isolate cancer stem cells from human pan-creatic cancer cell line L3. 6pl and to identify their biological characteristics. Methods L3. 6pl cells were cultivated in com-mercial low adhesion plate with serum-free stem cell culture me-dium ( MEM/F12 1:1 ) supplemented with B27. The cancer stem cells reformed into floating spheres were isolated. The method of tumor sphere formation was used to isolate/enrich and characterize the cancer stem cells in pancreatic carcinoma cell line L3. 6pl. Cancer stem cell spheres were collected and sorted using magnetic cell sorting ( magnetic activated cell sorting, MACS) technology, with the cell surface markers of CD24 +CD44 + ESA+. Self-renewal and EMT-related oncogene expres-sion were measured with Western blot. Cancer stem cells differ-entiation potential and the expression of cancer stem cell related signs were checked with Immunofluorescence assay. To deter-mine tumorigenesis in vivo, Xenograft assay in NOD-SCID mice were performed respectively, then immunohistochemistry proto-oncogene c-Met and RON expression were also checked. West-ern blot was used to detect the changes of stemness relative tran-scriptional factors and epithelial markers expressed in spheres before and after differentiation. Drug resistance of pancreatic cancer stem cells to gemcitabine or paclitaxel was measured with MTT assay. Results CD24 + CD44 + ESA+ cells were signifi-cantly tumorigenic, and cultured in serum-free conditions to form spheroids, which had the characteristics of stem cells with self-renewal, EMT and drug-resistant capabilities, and had a posi-tive correlation with the c-Met, RON protein expression. Con-clusion Human pancreatic stem cells are successfully isolated, which provides a useful model for individualized therapy and e-valuation of the therapeutic efficacy for pancreatic cancer pa-tients.
