Objective To investigate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV 1)specific CD8'T cell responses and related human leukocyte antigenⅠ(HLA-I)restriction sites.Methods Four Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)strains-transformed B-lymphoblastoid cell lines (BLCL)from periph eral blood monocytes (PBMC)of 4 healthy individuals were established.Using synthesized peptides in HIV-1 Gag,Vif and Nef regions as epitopes and using BLCL as antigen presenting cells (APC), the frequency of interferon-7(IFN-?)secreting cells in CD8 T cells from a HIV-infected long term nonprogressor by enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT)assay in vitro were assessed.Moreover, matching analysis of HI.A-Ⅰrestriction sites were performed.Results HIV-1 epitopes were presen ted restrictively by HLA-Ⅰmolecules in specific CD8 T cell responses,and this antigen presenting had high specificity.HLA-Ⅰrestriction sitesA03,A26,C04andC08 contributed to presentepitopes in HIV-1 C-ag region,A03 and C08 to HIV-1 Nef as well.Conclusion HLA-Ⅰrestriction sites may include A03,A26,C04 and C08 in HIV-1 Gag region,and A03,C08 in Nef region.

Objective To optimize the extraction of volatile oil from Qingjie Granules and process of inclusion compound of beta-cyclodextrin. Methods Water Distillation was used for extraction. Extraction time, grinding degree, and the amount of water were set as inspection factors, and volatile oil volume was set as the evaluation index to inspect extraction process of volatile oil from Qingjie Granules. With inclusion rate as the evaluation index, the single factor test and the Box-Behnken combined with the response surface method were used to choose the optimum inclusion process. Results The optimum extraction process for Schizonepetae Herba, Saposhnikoviae Radix and Forsythiae Fructus coarse powder should be with 10 times amount of water, extracting 3 h. Inclusion method should be saturated water solution method, and the inclusion process of volatile oil as feed and beta-cyclodextrin inclusion ratio was 1:12; the temperature was 40 ℃; inclusion time was 3.5 h. By means of TLC, UV and IR spectra, the formation of the inclusion compound of volatile oil in clear solution particles was preliminarily proved. Conclusion The optimum extraction and inclusion process of volatile oil from Qingjie Granules are stable and feasible, which can be used in industrial production.

Objective To analyze the levels of high density lipoprotein ( HDL) and low density lipoprotein ( LDL) among the staff in a college .Methods Fasting serum samples were collected from 2 234 paticipants .The lev-els of HDL and LDL in different sex and ages were estimated .Results The average value and abnormal rate of LDL in males were 3.20mmol/L and 49.1%,respectively.The average value of LDL in males was higher than normal val-ue.The average value and abnormal rate of LDL in females were 3.03mmol/L and 42.3%,respectively.The value of LDL in females who less than 54 years old was lower than that in males of the same age ( t=5.33,10.56,all P<0.01).Conclusion The abnormal rate of LDL had significant increase and the level in males was higher than that in females.The health education is necessary to prevent and control the abnormal level of LDL .

BACKGROUND:Recently, there is more and more attention on uric acid (UA), especially the correlation with cardiovascular disease in the filed of epidemiology; however, researches of the effect of UA on endothelial cells are lack based on cytology.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of UA in different concentrations on human umbilical vein endothelial cells line (ECV304), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) and 3-(4,5-dimethyl thiazole-2)-2, 5-diphenyl thiazolyl blue (MTT)in vitro.DESIGN: Randomized controlled study based on ECV304.5ETTING: Department of Endocrine, Xijing Hospital, the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS:ECV304 was provided by Department of Immunology, the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; DMEM Iow-glucose medium by Gibco Company, USA; bovine serum by Beijing Yuanheng Shengma Biotechnology Researching Institute; trypsin by Gibco Company, USA; MTT by Huamei Company; dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) analytical pure by Tianjin Bodi Chemical Engineering Co. Ltd.; UA by Sigma Company; NO kit and MDA kit by Nanjing Jiancheng Company; ordinary invert microscope and enzyme-linked immune detector IX70 invert microscope by Olympus, Japan;enzyme-linked immune detector by Eastern China Electron Tube Factory.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in Department of Endocrine and Burning, the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from December 2003 to April 2004. Resuscitation, culture, regeneration and inoculation of endothelia cells were undertaken Cell Culture published by Situ et al. Endothelia cells were cultured with non-serum DMEM for 24hours so as to maintain synchronization at the phase of G0/G1 and divided into 4 groups, including control group, low-concentration UA group, moderate-concentration UA group and high-concentration UA group. Each group was divided into 3time points, including 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours with 8 samples in each time point. Samples were added with 5％serum medium containing 0 mmol/L, 0.1 mmol/L, 0.2 mmol/L and 0.4 mmol/L UA in control group, low-concentration UA group, moderate-concentration UA group and high-concentration UA group, respectively, and incubated in box with the volume fraction of 0.05 CO2 at 37 ℃. Twenty-four hours later, MDA and MTT were detected; additionally, MTT was detected once more after 48 and 72 hours.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Proliferation of ECV304 and content of NO and MDA.RESULTS:With the increasing concentration of UA, content of MDA was decreased to (2.97±0.05),(2.89±0.09),(2.78±0.10) and (2.44±0.03) μmol/L, respectively; content of NO was (6.86±1.41), (12.5±2.7), (18.9±1.8) and (21.1±1.4) μ mol/L. Absorbencies of NO and MTT were increased and proliferation was increased remarkably at 48 hour.CONCLUSION: A which is characterized by anti-oxidation may promote proliferation of vascular endothelia cells and release of NO.

Objective To investigate the condition of inflammation and prethrombotic state (PTS) of the aged patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) complicated with esstential hypertension(EH) and type 2 diabetes mellitns(T2DM). Methods The levds of fasting plasma hs-CRP,D-D and VWF were all measured in 86 CHD patients with EH,84 patients with T2DM,80 patients with EH and T2DM,91 CHD patients and 79 normal cases. Results Compared with normal group,diseases groups had significantly higher hs-CRP,D-D,and VWF,but compared with CHD with EH and T2DM group,other diseases groups had lower hs-CRP,D-D and VWF(P <0.05) ;The concentration of serum hs-CRP was positively correlated with D-D and VWF in CHD group (P < 0. 05). Conclusion The inflammation and hypercoagulable state is more significant in CHD patients with EH and T2DM,thns the levels of plasma hs-CRP,D-D and VWF play an important role in the treatment.

Objective To offer a theory that supports the individualized tacrolimus dosage regimen by retrospectively investigating the influences of gene polymorphism and other clinical factors on tacrolimus concentration in renal transplant recipients. Methods A total of 280 renal transplant recipients were genotyped for CYP3A4?5, CYP3A4?6, CYP3A4?18B, CYP3A5?3, MDR1 1236C>T, MDR1 2677G>T/A, MDR1 3435C>T polymorphisms by PCR followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis.PXR 6bp deletions (rs3842689) genotypes were determined by Allelic Special-Touch down PCR.Correlation between gene polymorphisms and tacrolimus concentrations was analyzed. Results The mutation frequency of CYP3A4?18B, CYP3A5?3, MDR1 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A, 3435C>T and PXR rs3842689 in the renal transplant recipients was 29.11%, 69.29%, 43.57%, 49.64%, 36.43% and 26.07%, respectively.Multiple regression analysis showed that, CYP3A5?3 and red blood cell count were associated with the value of C0/D of FK506, the best regression model was:D=C0/(-60.445 +95.777×CYP3A5 +34.938×RBC), and the equation could explain 38.8% of tacrolimus individual differences. Conclusion Gene polymorphism of CYP3A5?3 and red blood cell count may be responsible, in part, for the large interindividual variability of FK506 dose and concentration.
