Objective To explore the significance of IL-17 and IL-10 in patients with different types of hepatic cystic echinococcosis ( CE ) in cyst stages , to investigate the values of evaluation of hydatid cyst activity . Methods 33 patients with hepatic hydatid disease and 21 healthy people (control group) were enrolled, divided into 4 groups, according to WHO ultrasonic classification for CE:Control group (n=21), CEⅠ,Ⅱgroup (active, n=14), CEⅢgroup (transitional, n=10), and CEⅣ,Ⅴgroup (inactive, n=9). The serum concentrations of IL-17 and IL-10 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Serum levels of IL-17 in CEⅢgroup were significantly higher than other groups (P<0.05). There were no significant difference in serum IL-17 levels between CEⅠ,Ⅱgroup [(38.57 ± 3.83) pg/mL] and CEⅣ,Ⅴgroup [(40.22 ± 5.15) pg/mL]. Serum levels of IL-10 were significantly higher in CEⅢgroup [(14.65 ± 2.15) pg/mL] than CEⅠ,Ⅱgroup [(11.38 ± 0.71) pg/mL] (P<0.05), while CEⅠ,Ⅱgroup were significantly higher than CEⅣ,Ⅴgroup [(7.60 ± 0.46) pg/mL] (P<0.05). There were no significant difference of IL-17/IL-10 ratio between CEⅠ, Ⅱgroup (3.44 ± 1.04) and CEⅢgroup (4.60 ± 2.40), and there were no significant difference of IL-17/IL-10 ratio between CEⅢgroup and CEⅣ,Ⅴgroup (5.39 ± 1.95). IL-17/IL-10 ratio in CEⅠ, Ⅱgroup was significantly lower than CEⅣ, Ⅴgroup (P<0.05). The serum concentrations of IL-17 has no correlation with IL-10 in different cyst stages. Conclusions The synergy effect of IL-17 and IL-10 may play the certain role to promote the parasite progress. Neither IL-17 nor IL-10 level could be as an independent marker of echinococcal cysts activity, while IL-17/IL-10 ratio reflect the hydatid cyst activity in certain degree, but as a echinococcal cysts activity marker, further evidence should be needed.

BACKGROUND: Stem cells, cells with special function in animals and humans, exist in various tissues. Most of stem cells differentiate into special tissue organs and some of them remain in the status of stem cells for tissue repair. Mesenchymal stem cells were transplanted to burn wounds in some researches for inducing the proliferation and activation of skin stem cells so as to cure burn.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of stem cell culture medium cultured in vitro instilled locally into the severely traumatic skin in guinea pigs on healing time and healing degree of the wound.DESIGN: Random grouping and blank control trial.SETTING: Department of Toxicology, School of Public Health, Jilin University.MATERIALS: Totally 14 adult healthy guinea pigs of either gender weighing 300 to 350 g were recruited.METHODS: The experiment was conducted in the Laboratory of Toxicology Department, School of Public Health, Jilin University, from March to September 2003. Ten guinea pigs were put to death by bloodletting on the neck. The bone marrow was extracted and cultured in unicellular supematant fluid for use. The 14 guinea pigs were made into models of bilateral severe skin trauma.Ten of the guinea pigs were chosen randomly, stem cell culture was instilled into one side of the animals (stem cell group), while the culture medium was instilled into the other side of the animals (culture medium group). The remaining 4 guinea pigs that received no treatment were blank control group.Three days later, transparent lucite was put on the wound every other day for drawing the shape and observing the wound. After the shape was copied onto the transparent lucite, the wound area was worked out on the rectangular coordinate paper and the speed of wound healing was calculated.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Gross observation was performed on the healing status of the wound and average healing time and speed of the guinea pigs in each group.wound healing status of the guinea pigs in each group: At day 3, the wound in stem cell group was dry without obvious exudation. There was a layer of membrane at the bottom of the wound and it stuck to the pledget closely so that the dressing could not easily be removed. The wound status in the culture medium was practically the same as that of the stem cells, but no membrane-ike material was formed and the dressing was easily removed. Inflammation appeared obviously in blank control group.nificantly less in stem cell group than in culture medium group and blank control group [(12.45±2.18) days vs (26.29±1.38) days and > 30It was obviously faster in stem cell group than in culture medium group and blank control group [(40.42±2.14) mm2 per day vs (15.53±5.22) mm2 per day and(10.27±4.57) mm2 per day,P < 0.05].CONCLUSION: The stem cells of homologous animals were instilled on the skin surface to repair injury wound. Stem cells can grow on the wound and transform into skin cells, which promotes the recovery of wounded skin. Therefore, it is feasible to treat severe skin defect with stem cells.

Objective To explore if keratinocytes that stably maintain HPV11 genome can be obtained by transfection and selection methods. Methods Escherichia coil containing pBR322.HPV11 plasmid was cultured and amplified. Then the plasmid was extracted, purified and digested with BamH Ⅰ enzyme to release viral genome from the bacterial vector. After recovering from the low-melting point agarose gel by electrophoresis, the genome was self-circulated with T4 DNA ligase. The religated DNA was cotransfected with pTK-neo DNA into HaCaT keratinocytes using Lipofectamine reagent. After selection with G418 for 2 to 3 weeks, clonal and pooled cultures were expanded and analyzed. Fluorescent quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR) and nested reverse transcriptase PCR (nRT-PCR) were applied to detect HPV11 DNA and spliced HPV11 E1^E4 mRNA expression in the transfected cells. Results After the cotransfection of HPV11 genome into HaCaT keratinocytes and two-week selection,G418-resistant cell colonies were obtained with morphological features indistinguishable from normal HaCaT keratinocytes. As shown by FQ-PCR, HPV11 DNA was present in G418-selected HaCaT keratinocytes. The average viral DNA load capacity was 15.9±16.8 copies/cell in the primary culture of G418-selected HaCaT cells and 23.9±1.1 copies/cell in the third passage of the cells; there was no statistical difference between the two passages of cells (t=-0.822, P>0.05). nRT-PCR targeting HPV11 E1^E4 mRNA transcript produced a specific 628-bp fragment, which was shown by agarose gel electrophoresis. Conclusions Our data indicate that HPV11 genome can be successfully introduced into HaCaT keratinocytes by transfection and HPV11 DNA-positive cells can be obtained by G418 selection. Moreover, HPV11 DNA is still present in the third passage of transfected cells.

Objective To observe a recombinant mutant of HBV core protein for dominant negative gene therapy against HBV encapsidation in vitro. Methods C gene and S gene of HBV were acquired through PCR and subcloned into pGEM T to construct pGEM T C and pGEM T S respectively. After digestion and ligation of these two plasmids, pGEM T CS was constructed. The cloned gene was inserted into pcDNA3.1 + to construct pcDNA3.1 + CS, which was identified by DNA sequencing. The recombinant plasmids were transformed into HepG2 cells, and screened with G418. The resistant HepG2 cell clones were chosen to test the expression of core surface protein by RT PCR, and the expressing HepG2 clones were cultured with 10% HBV DNA positive human serum for 72 hours. The intracellular HBV particles were extracted and the DNA was subjected to dot hybridization. Results The analysis showed that the HepG2 cells expressing mutant C protein had capabilities to resist HBV invasion in varied degrees. The mutant C protein had a dominant negative role in the encapsidation of HBV compared with the naive part of core protein. Conclusions The production of recombinant mutant core protein has a potential value for gene therapy against HBV infection.
