Objective:To explore the promoting effects of IL-7 and IL-2 on CD4+CD25-T cells proliferation in vitro and construct a stable culture system in vitro for CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells from human umbilical cord blood.To compare the inhibiting effects between induced proliferated CD 4+CD25+Tregs and naturally isolated CD 4+CD25+Tregs on PBMCs functional activity.Methods:CD4+CD25-T cells and CD4+CD25+T cells were isolated from human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells by magnetic activated cell sorting ( MACS) system and then expanded in vitro.Four different concentration levels of IL-7 combined with proper concentration of IL-2 were added as inducer and the efficiency and optimal concentration of IL-7 on inducing,CD4+CD25-T cells were analyzed via 4 different methods.Flow cytometry method was used to detect the changes of CD 4+CD25-T cells.The inhibitory effect of expanded CD 4+CD25+T cells on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was tested by MTS.The expressions of Foxp3,IL-10 and TGF-βgenes in CD4+CD25+T cells were test by RT-PCR.Results:The CD4+CD25+T cells from each groups were expanded significantly after three weeks of culture.The results indicated that use of IL-7 combined with IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion comparing to the other groups.It was shown by the inhibitory test that the expanded CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells could inhibit the proliferation of PBMCs ,but IL-7 induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells exerted weaker suppressor activity than natural regulatory T cells .Only IL-7 (4 ng/ml) and IL-2 (2 000 U/ml) induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells showed the strongest killing activity.Conclusion:We successfully expand CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells in vitro.The protocol is established in which the use of mAbCD 3/CD28 combined with IL-7 and IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion ,and intensely expressed cell phenotype of CD 4 and CD25.

Objective To investigate the protection effects and possible mechanism of apoptotic effect of compound Xiancao granules on renal ischemia reperfusion injury ( IRI ) in rats. Methods Renal IRI rat model was established by clipping bilateral renal artery.The rats were divided into model control group (n=10), compound Xiancao granules group (n=10) and sham operation group (n=10).All Serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were determined to evaluate kidney function after IRI.Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and malondialdehyde (MDA) activity in kidney were measured by colorimetric method. Expression of apoptotic regulatory genes Bcl-2 and Bax in renal tissue were detected by Western blotting.Renal tissue sections were stained by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and examined under a light microscope. Results SOD and GSH-PX levels of the compound Xiancao granules group (278.1±16.2),(155.96±20.58) U?mg-1 were significantly higher than those of the model control group (196.3±12.1),(109.34±17.81) U?mg-1 (P<0.05). MDA, BUN and Cr (12.49±1.07) nmol?mL-1,(8.9±2.7) mmol?L-1,(149.7±8.5) μmol?L-1 were significantly reduced in the compound Xiancao granules group as compared with those of the model control group (17.32±1.26) nmol?mL-1,(14.6± 3.3) mmol?L-1,(206.1±11.2) μmol?L-1(P<0.05).Bax and Bcl-2 mRNA expression levels of sham operation group were significantly lower, and the Bax and Bcl-2 mRNA expression levels of model control group were significantly enhanced ( Bcl-2:P<0. 05, Bax: P<0. 01 ) . Bax mRNA expression level of compound Xiancao granules group was significantly decreased as compared with that of model control group ( P<0.05) , but Bcl-2 mRNA expression level of compound Xiancao granules group was significantly enhanced as compared with that of model control group (P<0.01). Conclusion These results suggested that compound Xiancao granules has protection effect on renal IRI in rats. The mechanisms may be related to its antioxidant activity and expression of the apoptotic genes such as Bcl-2 and Bax.

In order to improve the resolution, contrast and frame rate of ultrasound imaging, it is necessary to design an adaptive beamforming method for plane wave ultrasound imaging. An optimized minimum variance algorithm that suits plane wave ultrasound imaging was proposed, based on the traditional minimum variance algorithm that combines with the subband beamforming as well as the forward-backward spatial smoothing method in the frequency domain. To verify the effectiveness of the improved algorithm, the matlab software was used. Simulation results showed that full width at half maximum and peak side-lobe level of Optimized MV, Conventional MV, DAS boxcar, and Linear scan methods were 0.08, 0.36, 0.92, 1.42 dB, and -41.1, - 37.3, -16.9, - 34.1 dB, respectively. The improved algorithm can significantly improve the image resolution and contrast, particularly applicable to plane wave ultrasound imaging, compared with the conventional minimum variance algorithm and traditional delay-and-sum method.

Objective To investigate the clinical value and experience of transperitoneal and retroperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for renal hi1 ar tumors.Methods We evaluated 48 patients who had partial nephrectomy for renal hilar tumor by robotic surgical syestem from January 2013 to March 2017.In those cases,35 were male and 13 were female,with an average age of 57.3 (range from 41 to 75 ),27 cases were ventral tumor and 21 cases were dorsal tumor.3 cases were totally confined to the renal parenchyma,the other 45 cases were partially confined to the renal parenchyma.18 cases were performed surgery by retroperitoneal route,the rest 30 cases were performed by peritoneal route.Results A total of 48 patients underwent successful robotic partial nephrectomy for renal hilar tumors.The mean warm ischemia time was 22 minutes (range from 16 to 33 minutes) and the mean estimated blood loss was 88 md (range from 50 to 350 ml).No bleeding-related complications were found.Histopathology confirmed 39 cases of ccRCC,7 cases of angioleiomyolipoma,2 cases of renal oncocytoma.There was one case in this review was positive surgical margin (2.1％) and found no sign of recurrence during the short term post-operation follow-up.All cases in this review are following up after surgery to date from 2 months to 4 years,no cases of tumor recurrence or metastasis were found.Conclusions The application of transperitoneal and retroperitoneal RAPN is the effective and safe way for renal hilar tumor resection,and it has a clear advantage of renal surgical incision stitching and tumor complete resection.The choice of surgical approaches depends on the size and location of tumor and the clinical experience of the surgeon.

Objective: To investigate the independent predictors of inguinal lymph node metastasis (LLM) in patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma (SCCP), and to establish a nomogram for predicting individual LLM risk. Methods: The data of patients with SCCP diagnosed at the department of urology, Xijing Hospital from July 2009 to June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 101 patients were included in this study, with age of 55 (26-84) years. There were 25 (24.8%) and 76 (75.2%) patients with and without palpable inguinal lymph node enlargement, respectively. There were 47 cases (46.5%), 40 cases (39.6%) and 14 cases (13.9%) in T₁, T₂ and T₃ stages, respectively; there were 67 cases (66.3%), 21 cases (20.8%) and 13 cases (12.9%) in Broder 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The average value (or median) of fibrinogen was 2.84 (1.72-5.00)g/L; alkaline phosphatase was 80(32±214)U, hemoglobin was 147(81-180)g, platelet count was (193.74±65.68×10⁹/L, absolute value of neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes were 3.98(1.19-11.85)×10⁹/L, 0.44(0.17-1.90)×10⁹/L and 1.68(0.58-4.13)×10⁹/L, respectively. The average (or median) value of PLR, NLR and LMR were 113.38(18.80-418.42), 2.42(0.59-10.22) and 3.84 (1.08-9.89), respectively. There were 26 cases (25.7%) with LLM and 75 cases (74.3%) without LLM. The independent predictors of LLM were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The R software was used to establish the nomogram by integrating all independent predictors, and the bootstrap method was used to internally validated our nomogram, where the value of AUC (area under the ROC curve) was calculated and the calibration plot was drawn. Results: Clinical inguinal lymph node status (P<0.006), T stage (P<0.021), Broder grade (P<0.017) and absolute neutrophil value (P<0.043) were independent predictors of LLM. The accuracy of our nomogram was 0.875 (AUC=0.875, 95%CI 0.859-0.891); Moreover, the risk of LLM predicted by nomogram was in good consistency with the actual LLM rate, and the errors of the nomogram-predicted LLM risks were all within 10%. Conclusions Clinical inguinal lymph node status, T stage, broder grade and absolute value of neutrophils were identified as independent predictors of LLM in patients with SCCP on the basis of single center data. A generic nomogram predicting LLM risk for Chinese patients was developed, which would be helpful to screen SCCP patients who need prophylactic inguinal lymph node dissection.
