Academic Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University 2003;15(1):51-54
Objective: To evaluate the effect of the active specific immunotherapy with leukemia vaccine in the malignant hematopoietic diseases. Methods: We established the animal models by inoculating C57BL/6 rats with FBL-3 erythroleukemia cells and prepared three types of tumor vaccine, which were administered on the rats respectively. The MTT colorimetric assay was adopted 2 and 4 weeks later to test the cytotoxicity of macrophage (MΦ) and that of cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL) derived from the rats injected with tumor vaccines, and compared the results with the control group. Results: With the growth of erythroleulemia cells in the rats, the cellular immunity was seriously depressed, and the inhibition of specific cellular immunity was later than that of non-specific cellular immunity. The tumor vaccine made from inactivated tumor cells, IFA and cytokines (rGM-CSF, rIL-2 and rIL-6), promote the cellular immunity of tumor burden rats, especially the specific cellular immunity more efficiently than that of tumor vaccine made from inactivated tumor cells and IFA, but the third vaccine made from inactivated tumor cells alone has no effect. Conclusion: The tumor vaccine made from inactivated tumor cells with addition of IFA and cytokines (rGM-CSF, rIL-2 and rIL-6) provides a promising future in the active specific immunotherapy against hematopoietic tumor.

Objective: To observe the promoting blood circulation by removing blood stasis of Lubai Capsule(LBC)(Rhizoma Phragmitis, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Flos Schizonepetae, etc.). Methods: Acute blood stasis rat models were established with swimming in iced water and sc adrenalin in order to observe the effect of LBC on blood rheology. Mesenteric microcirculatory disturbance rat models were also established with adrenalin in order to observe the effect of LBC. Clotting time was measured in vitro with prothrombin time(PT) and kaolin partial thromboplastin time(KPTT) kit in order to observe its effects. Results: LBC could decrease the whole blood and plasma viscosity, fibrinogen, erythrocyte sedimentation and aggregation ratio of blood platelets of rats, ease the sticky condition of blood stasis rat models and prevent from forming thrombus. It could also inhibit the constraction and slowing of blood flow of thin artery, the reducing of open capillaries and change of fluid condition caused by adrenalin and improve these phenomena. PT and KPTT could be increased obviously. Conclusion: LBC can significantly promote blood circulation by removing blood stasis, because of improving blood rheology and mesenteric microcirculatory disturbance and inhibit endogenous and exogenous coagulation system.

Human acute premyeloid leukemia cell cDNA expression library was constructed to screen acute premyeloid leukemia tumor antigen. Total RNA and purified mRNA were extracted from human premyeloid cell line NB4. First and second strands of cDNA were synthesized by reverse transcription. After blunting, the cDNA fragments were ligated with EcoR I adapters. Then the cDNAs were digested with Xho I, and less than 400 bp cDNA fragment was removed by Sephacryl-S400 spin column, the remaining were ligated with lambdaZAP vector. The recombinants were packaged in vitro, and a small portion of packaged phage was used to infect E. coli XL1-Blue-MRF' for titration. The recombinants were examined by color selection. In order to evaluate the size of cDNA inserts and the diversity of library, the pBK-CMV phagemid was excised from the ZAP express vector by using ExAssist helper phage with XLOLR strain, and then the pBK-CMV phagemid was digested by Xho I and EcoR I. The results showed that the NB4 cell line cDNA library consisting of 1.65 x 10(6) recombinant bacteriophages was constructed with the recombinant ratio of 99.6%. The average length of the recombinant exogenous inserts was about 1.7 kb. It was concluded that the constructed cDNA library are deserved to screen target clones.
