Diabetic nephropathy is a complication of diabete and its incidence is increasing obviously these years. The pathogenic mechanisms of DN are complex, with multiple factors involved such as the glycometabolism disorders , hemodynamic changes, aldose reductase pathway activation, alterations in cytokines, oxidative stress, protein kinase C activation, lipid metabolism disorders and genetic susceptibility etc, which are not completely clear yet. Thus, the research progress of DN pathogenesis is to be reviewed.

Based on photon counting mode,a multi-channel continuous-wave(CW) diffuse optical tomography(DOT) system is designed for galactophore inspection.For the acquisition of dynamic information,the instrument adopts the non-intermittent counters to achieve the function of width-adjustable moving gate.The width of the moving gate can be changed from 50 microseconds to about 10 seconds,and correspondingly the total temporal span of the measurement ranges from several milliseconds to tens seconds,depending on the preset gate number.The data transfer as well as the system control is through the universal serial bus(USB) 2.0 technique,with which the system can readily extended for a variety of applications requiring different spatial resolution.

Objective To investigate the changes in cytotoxicity of DC-CIK cells to human multiple myeloma RPMI 8226 cells before and after treatment with oridonin. Methods Normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated and induced to obtain DC-CIK cells. Cytotoxicity of DC-CIK cells against RPMI 8226 cells which were treated by oridonin was analyzed by LDH releasing assay. The variation for expression of NKG2D ligands on RPMI 8226 cells were measured by flow cytometry. Results DC-CIK cells were successfully induced from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells. At the same effector to target ratio, oridonin obviously enhanced the cytotocixity of DC-CIK cells against RPMI 8226 cells (P<0.01). Flow cytometry showed the expression of NKG2D ligands ULBP1 of RPMI8226 cells was most significantly increased as the cells were treated by oridonin [(9.19 ± 1.85) vs. (15.47 ± 0.67), P<0.01]. Correlation analysis indicated that cytotocixity was positively correlated with changes in ULBP1. Conclusions Oridonin can improve the cytotoxicity of DC-CIK cells against RPMI 8226 cells, which may be related with the increased expressions of NKG2D ligands on the tumor cell surface.

ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy and safety of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC)in treatment of aplastic anemia(AA). MethodsTwenty-two patients with aplastic anemia were enrolled with median age of 31 (12-70) years old,including 11 severe aplastic anemia (SAA),and 3 of whom were cyclosporine and anti-thymocyte globulin-resistant. BMSC were isolated from bone marrow of healthy donors and cultured.The third to fifth generation cells were administered intravenously in 1×106/kg to patients once or twice a week.After infusion,complete blood count,bone marrow aspiration,bone marrow biopsy,flow cytometry analysis of lymphocyte subsets of CD3+ CD4+ and CD3+ CD8+ and clinical symptoms were involved in outcome measurement.ResultsAll patients finished 16-time median (5-83 times) infusions of BMSC with 13-month median (2-33 months) treatment course and 23-month median (2-34 months) follow-up.The total response rate was 72.7 ％(16/22), including one patient with essential cure, 9 with remission, 3 with remarkably improvement and 3 with transfusion interval extension.Two of three front-line immunosuppressiveresistant SAA patients achieved remission. Ten of 14 patients recovered from inverted ratio of CD4+/C8+ cells after BMSC treatment. There were no treatment-related side effects observed in the course of treatment.ConclusionBMSC are effective and safe for the treatment of AA in our preliminary study and they deserve further research with larger-scale and long-term clinical trials.

Rapid detection and classification of bacteria colonies ( Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogens and Staphylococcus aureus) were investigated by using hyperspectral imaging. The hyperspectral reflectance images (390-1040 nm ) of bacterial colonies on agar plates were collected. Bacterial spectra were extracted automatically based on the masks produced by segmenting a band difference image using the OTSU method. Full wavelength and simplified PLS-DA models were established for classification of bacterial colonies. For the full wavelength model, the overall correct classification rate ( OCCR) and confident OCCR for the prediction set were 100% and 95. 9%, respectively. Besides, competitive adaptive reweighted sampling ( CARS), genetic algorithm ( GA ) and least angle regression-least absolute shrinkage and selection operator ( LARS-Lasso) were used to select feature wavelengths for the development of simplified models. Among them, the CARS-model outperformed the other two in terms of precision, stability and classification accuracy with OCCR and confident OCCR of 100% and 98. 0% for the prediction set, respectively. It was demonstrated that hyperspectral imaging was an effective technology for nondestructive detection of bacterial colonies with high accuracy and high speed. The allocated feature wavelengths by CARS could lay theoretical basis for developing low cost multispectral imaging systems for bacterial colony detection.

Objective:To observe the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion on interleukin(IL)-9/IL-9 receptor(IL-9R)in the colon tissue of rats with ulcerative colitis(UC)and investigate the protective mechanism of acupuncture and moxibustion on the intestinal mucosal barrier in UC rats. Methods:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal control(NC)group and a modeling group.UC models were prepared by giving 4%dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)water for 7 d.After the successful construction of the UC rat model,the modeling group was randomly divided into a UC group,a herb-insulated moxibustion(HM)group,and an electroacupuncture(EA)group.HM and EA interventions at bilateral Tianshu(ST25)were performed once a day for 7 d.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the histopathological changes in the colon.The serum concentrations of IL-9,IL-6,IL-1β,and hemoglobin-H(HbH)were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The protein expression levels of IL-9,IL-9R,claudin-2,zonula occludens-1(ZO-1),and occludin in the colon tissue were measured by Western blotting or immuno-histochemistry.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the co-expression of PU.1 and CD4 with the IL-9 protein. Results:Compared with the NC group,the colon tissue of UC rats was severely damaged and ulcerated with congestion and edema,and the colonic histopathological score increased significantly(P<0.01).The serum HbH concentration decreased significantly(P<0.01),while the serum concentrations of IL-9,IL-6,and IL-1β increased(P<0.01).The protein expression of colonic ZO-1 and occludin decreased significantly(P<0.01),while the protein expression of colonic IL-9 and IL-9R increased(P<0.05).The positive co-expression levels of IL-9/PU.1 and IL-9/CD4 increased in the colon tissue(P<0.05).Compared with the UC group,the colonic mucosal structures were gradually repaired in both HM group and EA group,and healed ulcers could be observed,the colonic histopathological score decreased significantly(P<0.05).The serum concentration of HbH increased(P<0.01),while the serum concentrations of IL-9,IL-6,and IL-1β decreased(P<0.05).The protein expression levels of ZO-1 and occludin increased(P<0.05),while the protein expression levels of IL-9 and IL-9R decreased(P<0.01).The positive co-expression levels of IL-9/PU.1 and IL-9/CD4 decreased in the colon tissue(P<0.05). Conclusion:Both HM and EA can inhibit the protein expression levels of IL-9 and IL-9R in the UC colon by regulating the transcription factor PU.1,promote the repair of intestinal mucosal barrier,and down-regulate protein contents of proinflammatory factors IL-9,IL-6,and IL-1β in the serum,which may be one of the key mechanisms of acupuncture and moxibustion in reducing the inflammation of UC colonic mucosa and protecting the intestinal mucosal barrier.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Zhuanyaotang Granules for the treatment of degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis(DLSS).Methods Using a randomized double blind controlled design,104 DLSS patients were divided into an experimental group and a control group using a random number table method,with 52 patients in each group.The treatment group took oral Zhuanyaotang Granules,methylcobalamin tablets and celecoxib capsule simulants.The control group used Zhuanyaotang Granules simulants,methylcobalamin tablets and celecoxib capsules.The course of treatment was 3 weeks for both groups.The follow-ups were conducted at 1 month and 3 months after treatment.The intermittent claudication distance,visual analogue scale(VAS)score and JOA efficacy rating criteria for low back pain score were observed in both groups before treatment,1,2,3 weeks of treatment and 1 month after treatment and 3 months after treatment.Adverse reactions during treatment were recorded.Results There were 5 cases of detachment and 2 cases of exclusion in the experimental group,and 5 cases of detachment and 1 case of exclusion in the control group.Compared with before treatment,there were statistically significant differences in intermittent claudication distance,VAS score,and JOA score between the two groups of patients at various time points during treatment and follow-up(P<0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in intermittent claudication distance,VAS score,and JOA score between the experimental group and the control group before treatment and 1 and 2 weeks of treatment(P>0.05);compared with the two groups at 3 weeks of treatment and 1 and 3 months after treatment,the intermittent claudication distance and JOA score in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05);There was no significant difference in VAS score between the two groups and the control group after 3 weeks of treatment(P>0.05).There were 2 adverse reactions(4.4%)in the experimental group and 5 adverse reactions(10.8%)in the control group,without statistical significance(P>0.05).Conclusion Zhuanyaotang Granules can effectively relieve pain and improve lumbar function in patients with DLSS,which is more effective and safer than oral celecoxib capsules and methylcobalamin tablets.
