Objective To study the application of 99Tcm in rabbit cerebral thromboembolic stroke and thrombolysis effect of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA).Methods The 0.5 mL radioactive pertechnetate sodium (specification:5 mCi/2mL and radiation intensity 92.5 MBq/mL) was combined with 30 μL stannous chloride (5 mg/mL),and the 20 μL mixture was joined to whole blood,red blood cells,and plasma for labelling.Then 50 μL CaCl2 (0.5 mol/L) and bovine thrombin (50 IU/mL) were doped in mixture,and rapidly sucked into a polyethylene plastic pipe (PE80).Thrombus was formed for 2 h at 37 ℃ and cut into small pieces of 10 mm.Autologous blood clots combined with 99Tcm from external carotid artery were injected to internal carotid artery of rabbit,the radioactivity (counts per minute,CPM) was measured by gamma counting instrument,and the improvement of rt-PA 4.5 mg/kg (clinical equivalent dose) on this model was observed.Results After thromboembolism,CPM increased approximately by (5.1 ± 1.3) times,which suggested that the model was reliable.The rt-PA 4.5 mg/kg had significant progressive thrombolysis effect.Conclusion 99Tcm tracer technology could be applied to rabbit cerebral stroke model,which is stable and reliable

Objective To investigate the existence of neglect and explore the relationship between spacial attentional deficits and hemisphere in patients with schizophrenia. Methods 51 schizophrenic patients and 55 healthy controls were measured with line bisection test and number bisection test、 Results In the Line Bisection Test,shcizophrenic patients group showed a negative deviation, in which the 2cm line( -0.03 ± 0. 74 )% and mean ( - 0. 02 ± 0. 03 ) % deviation rates were more significantly leftward than that of the normals ( ( 0. 00 ±0.02 ) %, ( - 0.00 ± - 0.01 ) %, P ＜ 0. 05 ) respectively. The mean deviation rates of the patients (P ＜ 0. 01 ) and control groups (P ＜ 0. 05 ) were also significantly leftward compared with zero value. In the number bisection test,schizophrenic patients group showed a negative deviation and a significant leftward bias on the interval 5 ( - 0.07 ±0.18)% ,7( -0.08 ±0.22)% and 9( -0.09 ±0.28)% ) than that of the normals(( -0.01 ±0.05)% ,(0.01± 0. 08 ) % and (0.00 ± 0.14 ) %, P ＜ 0.05 respectively). Conclusion Schizophrenic patients have a right-neglect, suggesting that spacial attentional deficits exist, and it may be related to the left cerebral hemisphere dysfunction.

Objective:To investigate the effect of IL-17A on the differentiation and maturation of murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells( BMDCs ) . Methods: Murine bone marrow cells were isolated and cultured in RPMI1640 complete medium in the presence of GM-CSF(20 ng/ml) for 8 days to induce differentiation of murine bone marrow cells to DC progenitors. Then these cells were treated with LPS(1 μg/ml) for 36 h which polarized immature DCs into mature DCs. Different concentrations of rmIL-17A(10 or 100 ng/ml) was added to the culture medium at different stages of BMDC differentiation and maturation. Co-stimulatory molecules expression on BMDC were analyzed by flow cytometry,and the culture supernatants were analyzed for IL-12p40 and IL-10 level by ELISA. Results:rmIL-17 could promote co-stimulatory molecules( CD40,CD80,CD86 and MHCⅡ) expression on BMDCs in a does-dependent manner,especially,the expression of CD40 and MHCⅡhad a significant increase in high concentration of rmIL-17A group;rmIL-17A was added while LPS induced maturation of BMDCs. CD40,CD80,CD86 and MHCⅡexpression on BMDC increased sharply in LPS plus rmIL-17A stimulation group,besides,CD86,MHCⅡ showed a higher level expression on BMDC with the increase of con-centration of rmIL-17A. Furthermore,secretion of IL-12p40 and IL-10 increased significantly in the group of DCs treated with LPS plus low concentration of rmIL-17 compared with the group without rmIL-17(P<0. 001). However,high concentration of rmIL-17A group showed significantly higher levels of IL-12p40(P<0. 001),but there was no difference in IL-10. Conclusion:IL-17A promotes the phe-notypic development of BMDC progenitors propagated in GM-CSF and cooperate with LPS to induce BMDC differentiation and matura-tion.

Objective This study was carried out to compare chnical efficiency of methylprednisolone (MP) and dexamethasone (Dex) and their effects on Th cytokines in asthmatic children.Methods A total of 39 children with moderate and severe asthma at acute exacerbation were randomly divided into two groups, one (A) with MP 1 -2 mg/kg (n=21) and the other (B) with Dex 0.25 -0.75 mg/kg (n= 18),every 12 -24 h by intravenous drip.Scores of respiratory effort and peak expiratory flow rate prior to and three days after treatment in the asthmatic children aged over five years were evaluated,respectively,as well as the time of wheezing vanishing after treatment.Serum levels of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and IL-4 were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA) prior to and three days after treatment,respectively.Results There was statistically significant difference in the time of wheezing vanishing between groups A and B (P = 0.042).Three days after treatment,PEER was significantly higher in group A than that in group B (P = 0.025).No statistically significant difference in serum IL-2 and IL-4,as well as ratio of IL-2/IL-4,was found in group B prior to and three days after treatment (P>0.05).Statistically significant difference in serum IL-2 was not observed in group B prior to and three day after treatment (P>0.05),and serum IL-4 decreased significantly (P=0.001) and ratio of serum IL-2/IL-4 (P=0.027) increased significantly three days after treatment than those prior to treatment.No significant correlation between respiratory-effort scores and ratio of serum IL-2/IL-4 prior to treatment was found (P=0.613).Conclusions Up-regulation of IL-2,or inhibition of release of IL-4,probably is not the main anti-inflammatory mechanism of dexamethasone.Methylprednisolone has little effect on serum IL-2,but can effectively reduce serum IL-4, thus increasing the ratio of serum IL-2/IL-4 and counterbalancing function of the Thl/Th2 cells.

Objective To investigate influence of exogenous insulin in all-in-one parenteral nutrition on blood glucose in infants with very low birth weight (VLBW). Methods Forty-two infants with VLBWI admitted to the department of pediatrics of Xuzhou Hospital affiliated to Southeast University during September 2005 to March 2009 were randomly assigned to Group Ⅰ ( n = 13 ) with exogenous insulin added to all-in-one parenteral nutrition at infusion rate of 0.4 U·kg-1·h-1,GroupⅡ(n = 13) with exogenous insulin at infusion rate of 0.1U·kg-1·h-1 and Group Ⅲ (n = 16) with no exogenous insulin added.Their blood glucose was monitored every two hours. Chi-square test was used for comparing difference in blood glucose abnormality between the three groups and association between blood glucose levels at admission and during hospitalization was analyzed with Spearman correlation. Results Incidence of hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia was 10. 9 percent (29/265) and 18. 1 percent (48/265) in Group Ⅰ, 20. 8 percent (59/284) and 14. 1 percent (40/284) in Group Ⅱ , and 20. 5 percent (61/298) and 11.7 percent (35/298) in Group Ⅲ, respectively. There was significant difference in incidence of hyperglycemia between Groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ ( x2 = 9. 844, P = 0. 002 ) and between Groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ ( x2 = 9. 478, P = 0. 002 ), but no significant difference in it between Groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ ( x2 = 0. 008, P = 0. 928 ). There was significant difference in incidence of hypoglycemia between Groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ ( x2 = 4. 526, P =0. 033 ), but no significant difference in it between Groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (x2 =1.653, P=0. 199) or between Groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ (x2 =0.709, P =0.400).No significant correlation between endogenous blood insulin level at admission and during hospitalization( r = 0. 082, P = 0. 661 ) was found. Conclusions Blood glucose in infants with VLBW can not be regulated timely by their endogenous insulin itseff. Exogenous insulin added to all-in-one parenteral nutrition at infusion rate of 0. 1 U · kg-1 · h-1 may not significantly reduce incidence of hyperglycemia,while incidence of hypoglycemia can be reduced by exogenous insulin at infusion rate of 0. 4 U · kg- 1 · h -1 that can increase incidence of hypoglycemia Therefore, exogenous insulin is not recommended to be prophylactically added to all-in-one parenteral nutrition for infants with VLBW.

【Objective】 To explore the feasibility of blood transfusion compatibility testing for multiple myeloma(MM) patients treated with anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody daratumumab (DARA) after DARA-Fab fragment blocking, and to evaluate the transfusion efficacy by comparing with dithiothreitol(DTT) method. 【Methods】 After DARA was prepared into DARA-Fab fragments using PierceFab preparation kit, the neutralization effects of different volumes (5, 10, 15, 30 μL) on screening cells and panel cells were confirmed. DARA-Fab fragments and screening cells with specific antigens and corresponding monoclonal antibody reagents were used as the experimental group and the control group with the same volume of saline for incubating and centrifugin.Twenty MM patients treated with DARA were selected for cross-matching with DARA-Fab and DTT respectively, and the laboratory indexes before and after transfusion were statistically analyzed, and the two blood matching methods were compared. 【Results】 After incubating and centrifuging, the results of DARA-Fab fragments(15, 30 μL) with screening cells and serum mixed with DARA were negative, while those of DARA-Fab(5, 10 μL) were positive. 15μL DARA-Fab treated antibody identification cells (2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11) were negative, antibody identification cells (1, 6, 8, 10, 12) were negative after 30 μL DARA-Fab fragments treatment; the results of MNS, Duffy, Kidd, Kell, Lewis, Rh blood group system of the experimental group were consistent with those of the control group; the hemoglobin (Hb) (g/L) of 20 patients after infusion of RBC (73.90±1.90) was significantly higher than that before transfusion (63.60±1.58), P<0.01. There was no significant difference in total bilirubin(TBil)(μmol/L)(16.25±3.54 vs 17.87±3.57), direct bilirubin(DBIL)(μmol/L)(6.31±2.32 vs 7.10±2.80)and indirect bilirubin(I-Bil)(9.94±1.38 vs 10.77±1.22) before and after infusion(P>0.05).And no statistical difference was noticed in Hb (10.75±1.04 vs 10.30±0.98), TBil (3.31±1.47 vs 3.31±0.55), DBIL(2.76±1.24 vs 2.60±0.83), and I-Bil(1.97±0.40 vs 2.82±0.53) between the DTT treatment method and the DARA Fab fragment treatment before and after transfusion(P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 DARA-Fab can remove the interference of RBC on cross matching by blocking CD38 antigen. This method has no effect on the antigens of common RBC blood group systems, and shows significant blood transfusion efficacy as that of DTT method.
