Objective:To investigate the beneficial effect of erythropoietin(EPO)on experimental allergic encephalomyelitis(EAE).Methods: The severity of EAE mice with or without EPO therapy were evaluated through clinical symptoms score and histological observation.Mononuclear cells from spleens,lymph nodes, brains and lumber spinal cords were applied to flow cytometry to detect ratios of CD4~+T subgroup, scales of apoptotic and dead cells, levels of inflammatory cytokines.LDH release of peripheral mononuclear cells were examined after incubating with EPO at different concentrations.Results: EPO ameliorated clinical symptoms and infiltration of pathological inflammatory cells in EAE mice(P<0.05); Ratio of CD4~+T subgroup, levels of IL-17 and IFN-γ in EAE mice with EPO therapy were significantly lower than those of EAE control group(P<0.05).No statistical significant differences existed on scales of dead cells, levels of IL-10 and CD4~+ CD25~+ T cells (P>0.05).EPO at the concentrstions of 1-1 000 U/ml had no effect on LDH release of peripheral mononuclear cells(P>0.05).Conclusion: EPO play the role of neuroprotecion in EAE mice by the way of decreasing infiltrating inflammatory cells and lowering the levels of IL-17 and IFN-γ.

AIM To investigate the role of Trp3 in the Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in HEK293 cells and the effect of tyrosine kinase on it. METHODS With lipofect AMINE2000 reagent, hTrp3 cDNA was transfected to HEK293 cells and ? 1B HEK293 cells respectively. The expression of Trp3 was examined by Western blot. With Fura 2/AM spectrophoto fluorometry, Ca 2+ influx was determined. RESULTS HTrp3 was expressed endogenously in HEK293 cells, and the expression increased in hTrp3 transfected cells. Compared with untransfected cells, transfection of hTrp3 cDNA increased Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR ( P 0 05). 5~30 ?mol?L -1 genistein inhibited Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in hTrp3 cDNA transfected cells and the maximum inhibitory rate was (75 2?12 6)% . CONCLUSION Transfection of hTrp3 cDNA increased Ca 2+ influx induced by ? 1B AR in HEK293 cells. This process was regulated by tyrosine kinase.

Objective Using shotgun mass spectrometry to detect proteins probably contained in bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs) conditioned medium. MethodsMixed with BMSCs conditioned medium was divided into two parts which is(>5kD and <5kD) by means of ultrafiltration. The two parts were used to culture neural stem cells(NSCs) separately, and the proportions of neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in the offsprings of NSCs were calculated, then the effective part that could regulate the differentiation of NSCs was detected by Shotgun mass spectrometry. Results The BMSCs conditioned medium which is >5kD could promote the NSCs differentiate into more neurons and oligodendrocytes. The SDS-PAGE of this part showed that the most proteins were above 14kD, then the protein bands were enzymed. In total, 456 proteins were identified by Shotgun mass spectrometry after all the protein bands were enzymed, there were 154 similar proteins, 17 hypothetical proteins and 56 unknown proteins. And in the rest of 229 proteins, most of them were cytoskeletal proteins, secreted proteins, signal transduction proteins, enzymes, transporter and so on. Conclusion Many proteins secreted by BMSCs could regulate the differentiation of NSCs so as to prove the protein components probably existed in the BMSCs conditioned medium.

Objectives To investigate the etiology, renal pathology, treatment, and prognosis of children's urinary system injury after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods Clinical data of 81 children with urinary dysfunction after HSCT admitted to the Hematology Department in Children's Hospital of Soochow University were analyzed, and relevant literatures were reviewed. Results In 81 cases (50 males and 31 females), the age ranges from 8 months to 17 years old. Thirty cases (37%) with prerenal injury were recovered after active rehydration and other symptom specific treatment. There were 9 (11.1%) children with renal injury, four cases were given up therapy or transferred to other hospitals, thus lead to an unknown prognosis. Kidney biopsy was performed in the remaining five cases for pathological investigation. After active symptom-speific and etiology-based treatment, serum creatinine and glomerular filtration rate of four cases return to normal. But in the long-term follow-up,one case died of recurrence of primary disease, reinfusion of hematopoietic stem cell combined with renal failure. The remaining 3 patients were with chronic kidney disease (CKD). One case with renal thrombotic microangiopathy was in the chronic dialysis. Postrenal renal injuries were mainly hemorrhagic cystitis (28.4%) and urinary tract infection (16%). After a large dose of rehydration, urine alkalization and anti-infection therapy, they were recovered in the short term with a good prognosis. Conclusions Urinary injury after HSCT is mainly divided into three categories: prerenal, renal and postrenal, in which renal injury is prone to frequent recurrence.

OBJECTIVE:
To detect potential mutations of the PKHD1 gene in two pedigrees affected with infantile polycystic kidney disease.
METHODS:
Clinical data and peripheral venous blood samples were collected from the probands and their parents as well as fetal amniotic fluid cells. Genome DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood samples and amniotic fluid cells. Exons 32 and 61 of the PKHD1 gene were amplified with PCR and subjected to direct sequencing.
RESULTS:
The proband of pedigree 1 was found to carry c.4274T>G (p.Leu1425Arg) mutation in exon 32 and c.10445G>C (p.Arg3482Pro) mutation in exon 61 of the PKHD1 gene, which were inherited from her father and mother, respectively. The fetus has carried the c.4274T>G (p.Leu1425Arg) mutation. In pedigree 2, the wife and her husband had respectively carried a heterozygous c.5979_5981delTGG mutation and a c.9455delA mutation of the PKHD1 gene. No chromosomal aberration was found in the umbilical blood sample, but the genetic testing of their fetus was failed. Based on software prediction, all of the 4 mutations were predicted to be pathogenic.
CONCLUSION
PKHD1 c.4274T>G (p.Leu1425Arg), c.10445G>C (p.Arg3482Pro), c.5979_5981delTGG and c.9455delA were likely to be pathogenic mutations. The results have facilitated genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for the two pedigrees.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of three-dimensional medical image guided ultrasound in the chemotherapy of huge hepatic hemangioma.Methods Seventy-six cases were enrolled in a randomized control study.All cases were randomly divided into two groups (group A and group B).In group A,all cases underwent treatment based on the traditional two-dimensional medical images.Under the assistance of three-dimensional medical image information,preoperative treatment planning was performed in group B.After puncture treatment,therapeutic efficacy was evaluated by color ultrasound during follow-up.Results For treating huge hepatic hemangioma (tumor diameter ≥ 10.0 cm),the insertion number and pingyangmycin dosage in the group B were less than those in the group A [(6.2± 0.5)times vs (9.3±0.6) times,t=24.467,P=0.035;(99.2±8.0) mg vs (148.8±9.6) mg,t=34.613,P=0.029].The success rate of first treatment in the group B was higher than that in group A [73.6%(28/38) vs 100%(38/38),x2=131.91,P=0.032].Conclusion For huge hepatic hemangioma,the three-dimensional medical image information can be applied to reduce the insertion number and anesthetics dosage,improving the success rate of first treatment and therapeutic effect.
