Programmed death1 (PD-1) is mainly expressed on the surface of activated T cell. The combination between PD-1 and its legends PD-L1/PD-L2 activate downstream signaling pathways and negatively regulate T cell activation. Ab?normal increase expression of PD-L1 on tumor cell surface mediates the tumor immune escape. Inhibition of PD-1 signaling pathway contributes to antitumor effect of T cells. The development of this pathway inhibitors has become a hot spot for tu?mor immunotherapy. This article expounds the progress about antitumor effects mediated by PD-1 pathway inhibition from experiments in vivo or in vitro and clinical development of PD-1 pathway inhibitors, providing a new target for cancer immu?notherapy and theoretical and clinical basis for the clinical application of immunotherapy with traditional therapy methods.

The resection can be performed in about 20 percent of patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(PHC) in clinic. However, with the development of interventional treatment such as transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE), better therapeutic effect has been achieved by two-stage resection such as TACE in patients with unresectable PHC. At present, surgical resection is still regarded as the first choice of PHC, and the principle of comprehensive therapeutic solutions around surgical operation has been established. The pretreatment of TACE is an important measure to improve the therapeutic effect in PHC.This paper discussed the mechanism, effect and value of TACE in pretreatment of unresectable PHC. The selection of operative opportunity, sign, and ways after TACE and the factors affecting prognosis of two-stage resection were also reviewed.

Objective To discuss the clinical curative effects of Kaihoujian spray in the treatment of acute suppurative tonsillitis in children. Methods 120 cases of pediatric patients with acute suppurative tonsillitis were selected and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group (60 cases in each group); the control group were given conventional western medicine treatment, while the observation group received Kaihoujian spray on the basis of the control group treatment; clinical symptoms and curative effects of the two groups were evaluated and compared. Results In the observation group, sore throat and fever disappearance time, purulent secretion, tonsil swelling disappearance time and hemogram recovery time were all significantly shorter than those in the control group (P<0.05); after 3 courses of treatment, in the two groups, children temperature, sore throat, tonsil fester and tonsil swollen main symptom scores were all significantly decreased (P<0.05), but the observation group decreased more obviously (all P<0.05). After treatment, C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, neutrophils of the two groups all significantly reduced (P < 0.05), but the observation group decreased more obviously (all P<0.05). Conclusion Using Kaihoujian spray to treat acute suppurative tonsillitis could significantly improve the clinical symptoms and signs, whose clinical curative effect is good, and has no adverse reactions.

Aim To study the effect of two racemic ketamine, S(+)-ketamine and R(-)-ketamine on stimulus-induced superoxide generation and intracellular calcium in vitro. Methods The stimulus-induced superoxide generation in human neutrophils was determined by using method of cytochrome C reduction. The intracellular calcium in human neutrophils was measured by chemiluminescence with Fura-2 loading. The phosphorylation of p47phox of NADPH oxidase in neutrophils was detected by Western blotting. Results S(+)-Ket and R(-)-Ket inhibited fMLP-induced superoxide generation in neutrophils in a concentration-dependent manner. In the case of PMA, S(+)-Ket inhibited PMA-induced superoxide generation and elevation of intracellular calcium of neutrophils in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas R(-)-Ket slightly increased PMA-induced superoxide generation and elevation of intracellular calcium of neutrophils. On the other hand S(+)-Ket inhibited the phosphorytion of p47phox of NADPH oxidase subunit,which R(-)-Ket was increased. EGTA can abolished the inhibition of S(+)-Ket on PMA-induced phosphorytion of p47phox.Conclusion S(+)-Ket inhibits the phosphorylation of p47phox of NADPH oxidase subunit and the superoxide generation in human neutrophils via PKC-calcium signal pathway.

Objective To explore whether the polymorphisms within the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) and TNF-? gene are associated with the clinical types of patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Methods By using a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products, the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within TNF-? and TNF-? gene among 56 patients with chronic severe hepatitis B and 71 patients with chronic mild hepatitis B or asymptomatic carriers as well as 90 healthy controls were analyzed. The TNF-? concentration of serum in 56 patients with chronic severe hepatitis B and 30 healthy controls were determined by radio immunity assay (RIA). Results The frequencies of the TNF1/2 genotype and the TNF2 allele were significantly increased in patients with chronic severe hepatitis compared with healthy controls (25% vs 11.1%,P=0.028;12.5% vs 5.6%,P=0.036) and patients with chronic mild hepatitis B and asymptomatic carriers (25% vs 8.5%,P=0.011;12.5% vs 4.2%,P=0.015). Furthermore, heterozygotes carrying TNF2 allele had significantly higher levels of serum TNF-? than homozygotes for the wild type allele among all patients with chronic severe hepatitis B (P

Objective:To investigate the protection mechanism of rosavin in learning and memory ability in subacute aged rats in-duced by D-galactose. Methods:Totally 48 SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group, model group, positive drug group, and rosavin group respectively at the dose of 6, 12 and 24 mg·g-1 . Except the normal group, the other rats were with neck subcuta-neous injection of D-galactose 120 mg · kg-1 · d-1 . After 4-week drug administration, the learning and memory ability of rats was studied using Morris water maze. PO2 , SaO2 , the activity of superoxide dismutase ( SOD) , catalase( CAT) and glutathione peroxidase ( GSH-Px) and the content of O2 and malonaldehyde( MDA) of rats in vivo were determined at the end of the experiment. Results:The aged rats treated with rosavin(12 or 24 mg·kg-1·d-1) were with significant shortened latent period in Morris water maze(P<0. 01 or P<0. 05), and with reduced total swimming distance and error angle. Meanwhile, rosavin(6,12 or 24 mg·kg-1·d-1) could im-prove the concentration of O2 ,PO2 and SaO2 , the activity of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in brain, while decrease the content of MDA with certain dose-effect relationship. Conclusion:Rosavin can inhibit D-galactose induced learning and memory decrease in rats, and the effect may be related with the increase of oxygen content, enzyme activity protection of SOD, CAT, MAO and GSH-Px and decrease of MDA generation.
