Objective To investigate the characteristic and its clinical value of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and its receptor, interleukin (IL)-1β and its receptor in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and to determine the role of them in the immunopathogenesis of tuberculosis. Methods The concentrations of TNF-α,soluble TNF receptor (sTNF-R) Ⅰ, IL-1β and IL-1 receptor were measured using sandwish ABC-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method in serum and BALF of 46 patients with active tuberculosis and 21 patients with inactive tuberculosis, and in the serum of 20 cases of healthy control. Meanwhile the above-mentioned cytokine levels in serum and BALF of 19 patients with active tuberculosis were followed up. Differences between groups were assessed for significance by t test. Results The TNF-α,sTNF-R Ⅰ, IL-1β and IL-1 receptor levels and TNF-α/sTNF-R Ⅰ ratios in BALF of active tuberculosis group were (286.2±96.3) pg/L,(2 431.5±1 124.6) pg/L,(58.6±3.2) pg/L,(162.4±17.1) pg/L and 0.06±0.01, respectively, which were all significantly higher than those with inactive tuberculosis group (t=3.36,3.25,2.95,2.27 and 3.12 respectively; P<0.05). The TNF-α,sTNF-R Ⅰ,IL-1β and IL-1 receptor levels and TNF-α/sTNF-R Ⅰ ratios in BALF of cavernous tuberculosis group were (381.4±106.4) pg/L,(2 824.7±1 318.5) pg/L,(66.4±4.6) pg/L,(176.4±18.7) pg/L and 0.07±0.01, respectively,which were all significantly higher than those of non-cavernous tuberculosis group (t= 3.46,2.37, 3.19, 2.99 and 3.22, respectively; P<0.05). After 2-month' antituberculosis treatments, among 19 cases, the TNF-α,sTNF-R Ⅰ,IL-1β and IL-1 receptor levels and TNF-α/sTNF-R Ⅰ ratios in BALF of 16 cases were significantly lower than those at the beginning of treatments (t= 3.26,3.17, 3.28, 2.92 and 3.12 respectively; P<0.01). Meanwhile, their clinical symptoms improved, sputum smear negative, lesions on chest X-ray resolved and the cavity shrinked or closed. Conclusions TNF-α, sTNF-R Ⅰ, IL-1β and IL-1 receptor are likely to be involved in the immunopathogenesis of tuberculosis. Detection of TNF-α, sTNF-R Ⅰ, IL-1β and IL-1 receptor levels in the serum and BALF is helpful to understand the activity of disease, determine the clinical pattern of disease,assess the prognosis of disease and monitor the therapeutic effect in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.

OBJECTIVETo study the effects of 4-1BBL on antitumor immunity induced in vivo by murine 4-1BBL gene transfected Hepa1-6.
METHODSRetrovirus vector was used to transfer the 4-1BBL gene into syngeneic murine heptocellular carcinoma cell line Hepa1-6. The products were termed as Hepa1-6/4-1BBL, and then the TCV4-1BBL was obtained by treating them with mitomycin (MMC). Three models (immunological model, early model, and later model) were established to study the antitumor effects of TCV4-1BBL.
RESULTS(1)In immunological models, the syngeneic mice were completely protected by inoculation with TCV4-1BBL, survived free from tumor for a long period (over 100 days). (2)In early models (7 days after inoculation), Hepa1-6 tumor cells showed strong immunogenicity effects and (3) In later models (14 days after inoculation), they had obvious antitumor effects and most of the tumors were disappeared.
CONCLUSIONSThe antitumor effect against syngeneic murine hepatocellular carcinoma in vivo is obviously enhanced by treating them with TCV4-1BBL

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression types of protease-activated receptors(PAR) in human gingival fibroblasts(HGF) and the functions of PAR in periodontitis.
METHODSPrimary HGF were cultured.Reverse transcription PCR(RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of PAR in HGF. Recombinant gingipain R (rRgp) was applied to HGF. The change of PAR expression on the cell surface was analyzed by real-time quantitative RT-PCR, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the change of the interleukin (IL)-6 production from HGF. The results of RT-PCR and ELISA were statistically analyzed using the two independent samples t-test of SPSS10.0 software.
RESULTSHGF expressed PAR-1 and PAR-3. The expression of PAR-1 and PAR-3 changed after two rRgp treatment with HGF cells. The relative expression of PAR-1 was decreased from 1.04 ± 0.31 to 0.67 ± 0.11 and 0.31 ± 0.11. The relative expression of PAR-3 was decreased from 1.01 ± 0.44 to 0.79 ± 0.13 and 0.44 ± 0.12(P < 0.05). The level of IL-6 was increased after rRgp treatment for 8 h. The control group was (18.77 ± 4.09) µg/L, the rRgp treatment groups were (179.36 ± 15.81) and (320.56 ± 26.19) µg/L respectively.
CONCLUSIONSHGF expressed PAR-1 and PAR-3 and were involved in periodontal inflammation.
