Objective: To prepare and identify recombinant human IL 2/GM CSF(rhIL 2/GM CSF) fusion protein antibodies and to study its specificity and its effect on fusion protein biological activity. Methods: rhIL 2 /GM CSF fusion protein was purified by DEAE Sepharose FF ion exchange chromatography. The purified protein was used to immunize rabbits for the preparation of antisera. The titer and specificity of the antisera were detected by ELISA and Dot ELISA and the biological activity by cell proliferation. Results: The antisera not only reacted with the rhIL 2/GM CSF, IL 2 and GM CSF, but also inhibited the biological activity of the rhIL 2/GM CSF, IL 2 and GM CSF. Conclusion: The obtained antisera can be used to study the structure and function of the rhIL 2/GM CSF.

Objective:Discussion MKK4 protein expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and -1044 A/T polymorphism correlation.Methods:90 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma , MKK4 protein expression was determined by immunohistochemical staining,polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism ( PCR-RFLP ) to detect the gene -1044A/T sites monocytes nucleotide polymorphism.Results:MKK4 protein expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (-) was 24.4%(22/90),(+) was 15.6%(14/90),(++) was 34.4%(31/90),(+++) was 25.6% (23/90).Low expression (-/+) patients with a total of 36 cases,-1044AA genotype accounted for 22 cases (61.11%),AT genotype accounted for 12 cases (33.33%),TT genotype accounted for two cases (5.56%),AT+TT gene type accounted for 14 cases (38.89%).The patients with high MKK4 expression of 54 cases,of which accounted for 38 cases of AA genotype (70.37%),AT genotype accounted with 15 cases (27.78%),TT genotype accounted for one case (1.85%),AT +TT genotype accounted for 16 cases (29.63%).Low expression and high expression of T gene mutation occurs no significant ( Z=0.323 , P=0.747 ) .Conclusion: MKK4 protein expression correlated with -1044 A/T gene promoter polymorphisms was no significant correlation .

OBJECTIVETo analyze the drift of T cell receptor (TCR) Vα and Vβ gene family CDR3 spectratype in response to ovarian carcinoma cells mediated by an anti-human ovarian carcinoma/CD3 bispecific single-chain antibody (BHL-1), and explore the mechanism of the bispecific single-chain antibody-mediated T cell immune response.
METHODSImmunoscopic spectratyping technique was used to analyze the TCR repertoire diversity (CDR3 spectratype distribution) of the T cells from 6 healthy donors before and after stimulation of the cells with human ovarian carcinoma in the presence of BHL-1. The predominant usage of TCR α and Vβ chain CDR3 was analyzed after the stimulation, and sequence analysis was performed for the CDR3 region of the monoclonal T cells.
RESULTSThe spectratypes of Vα and Vβ gene family TCR CDR3 region showed a Gaussian distribution before stimulation of the T cells from the 6 donors. After stimulation of the T cells, CDR3 spectratype drift occurred in the T cells, and some TCR Vα and Vβ families showed an anomalous and oligoclonal expansion. Different CDR3 sequences of the Vα and Vβ gene family TCR were found in the monoclonal T cells stimulated with BHL-1.
CONCLUSIONCDR3 spectratype drift occurs in TCR α and Vβ chains of T cells after stimulation with human ovarian carcinoma cells and BHL-1, indicating that the predominant usage of TCR Vα and Vβ families is associated with the specific T cell immune response mediated by BHL-1.

Radiation-induced brain injury (RBI) is the most serious complication of head and neck tumor after radiotherapy. The pathogenesis of RBI is complicated, and the clinical course is irreversible, while no effective treatment available. The activation of glial cells is one of the main theories of RBI, and the prevention and treatment of RBI by targeting glial cells is the focus of current research. As a post-transcriptional regulatory factor, microRNA (miRNA) has been confirmed to be involved in regulatingglial cell radiosensitivity, inflammation type transformation, autophagy, exosomatic, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA) and other related pathways, thereby mediating the occurrence and development of cascade reaction of inflammatory injury and neurological function repair of central nervous system (CNS) disease. Therefore, the establishment of miRNA - glial regulatory network may provide a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of RBI.
