1.IL-17, IL-17 receptor and mycoplasma pneumoniae infection
International Journal of Pediatrics 2012;(6):621-623
With the development of mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) pathogenesis research,the dynamic observation of changes of cytokines on judgement of the infection of mycoplasma is of certain guiding significance.Domestic and foreign studies showed that MP infection was closely related with IL-17 and its receptor.IL-17 and its receptor may be involved in neutrophil recruitment,and in resistance to MP infection on the immune response.In this paper,the relationship between IL-17and its recepter and mycoplasma infection are reviewed.

BACKGROUND: Lanceolata and astragalus can improve myocardial ischemia, which are widely used in clinics.OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of extract of lanceolata and astragalus on electrocardiogram (ECG) of rats with experimental myocardial ischernia.DESIGN: Completely randomized and controlled study.SETTING: Pharmacological College of Harbin Commerce University.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out at the Laboratory of Pharmacological College of Harbin Commerce University from September to December 2002. Totally 30 healthy adult Wistar rats were divided randomly into 3 groups: control group, lanceolata group and astragalus group with 10 in each group.METHODS: ① After anesthesia, lead ECG Ⅱ of rats was recorded.30 g/kg saline, 30 g/kg lanceolata extract and 30 g/kg astragalus extract [extract of lanceolata and astragalus (raw drug: 1 g/mL)] were injected into rats in the control group, lanceolata group and astragalus group respectively. After 1-3 minutes, 0.5 U/kg pituitrin was injected intravenously (for model of myocardial ischemia), and then saline was used to dilute from 0.1to 0.2 mL for 10-second injection. Changes of ECG after injection of pituitrin were recorded with LMA-2B Ⅱ physiological recorder (migration of T wave and ST section and change of heart rate). ② Differences of data were compared with t test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Height of T wave and Migrations of ST section and changes of heart rate of ECG of rats before and after medication.RESULTS: Data of totally 30 rats was entered the final analysis. ①Height of T wave: The height was higher after medication than that before medication in three groups (P < 0.01), but that in astragalus group was obviously lower than that in lanceolata group [(1.63±3.81), (2.18±2.93) mm,P < 0.01]. ② Heart rate: The rate was lower after medication than that of before medication in three groups (P < 0.01), and that in astragalus group was obviously lower than that in lanceolata group [(212.21 ±5.01),(221.18±5.66) time/minute, P < 0.01]. ③ Height of ST section: There were not significantly different in three groups (P > 0.05), and the difference was not obvious before and after medication (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: ① Both astragalus and lanceolata can protect experimental myocardial ischemia induced by pituitrin. ② Effect of lanceolata on reduction of T-wave height is stronger than that of astragalus, but the effect of lanceolata on reduction of heart rate is weaker than that of astragalus.

Objective To evaluate the preventive effect of different portal vein flush solutions in no heart beating donor harvest on biliary cast syndrome (BCS) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), and the application of choledochoscopy in treating BCS. Methods The incidence of biliary complications in 137 consecutive recipients undergoing OLT in our liver transplant center from May. 2002 to Dec. 2003 was retrospectively analyzed. The incidence and risk factors of BCS were compared in 2 groups with different types of portal vein flush solution in no heart beating donor liver harvest: group 1 (n = 65). University of Wisconsin (UW) solution; and group 2 (n = 72), hypertonic citrate adenine ( HCA) solution combined with UW solution. Therapeutic experience and clinical value of choledochoscopy for BCS were summarized. Results Seventeen out of 137 cases (12.4 %) developed BCS in the first three months after operation. In the group 1, the incidence of BCS was 20. 0 % (13/ 65), while that in the group 2 5. 56 % (4/72) with the difference being significant (P

Cell aging,the fundamental unit of biological decay,is responsible for senile disease. With the development of research,the mechanism of cell aging has been investigated in molecular level. Two hypotheses have emerged to explain the reason that lamins contribute to cell aging,one is the mechanical stress hypothesis,the other is the gene expression hypothesis. The latter proposes that mutations in A-type lamins lead to abnormal tissue-specific gene regulation. In recent years,the molecular mechanisms of lamins causing cell aging primarily include gene mutation,Zmpste24 mutation,CAAX mutation and other mutations. These mutations in the gene that encode nuclear lamins cause nuclear lamina damage directly and result in cell aging,which have been associated with several degenerative disorders.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of ethambutol(EMB)and isoniazid(INH) in children’s plasma. METHODS:After precipitated with acetonitrile,plasma samples were determined by UPLC-MS/MS method. Using lamivudine as internal standard,Waters ACQUITY? UPLC HSS T3 column was adopted with mobile phase consisted of ace-tonitrile-water(containing 0.05% formic acid and 15 mmol/L ammonium formate)in gradient mode at the flow rate of 0.2 ml/min. By ESI,positive ion detection was conducted in MRM mode. The monitoring transition ion-pair was m/z 205.2→116.0 for EMB, m/z 138.1→121.1 for INH and m/z 230.2→111.9 for internal standard. RESULTS:The linear range of EMB and INH was 10-5 000 ng/ml and 50-5 000 ng/ml,respectively;the limits of quantitation were 10 and 50 ng/ml;RSDs of inter-day and intra-day were all lower than 15% and relative recoveries were 98.7%-105.5%. Plasma concentrations of EMB and INH in 4 children with tuberculo-sis were 94.5-99.7 and 55.1-80.9 ng/ml. CONCLUSIONS:The method is rapid and sensitive,which suitable for children’s plasma concentration monitoring of EMB and INH and pharmacokinetic study.

IL-2 gene was introduced into human erythroleukemic cell line K562 by retroviral vector. After transduction for eighteen days, flow microfluorometric analysis for DNA distribution of both K562/neo and K562/IL-2 cells indicated that transduced cells were accumulated in a state of G2M arrest. Thirty days later, the number of G2+M in K562/neo cells decreased, but proportion of G0/G1 in K562/IL-2 cells was still lower and G2+M was higher than that of nontransduced cells. The proliferative activity assay by MTT method demonstrated that the proliferation of K562/IL-2 was slow following four day culture. The index of mitosis was decreased. The results of light microscopical studies showed many giant and multinucleate giant cells with even more than twenty nuclei in each cell. It was possible that the formation of multinucleate giant cells associated with repeated endomitosis in a single cell. Further analysis of morphometry confirmed that the size of IL-2 gene modified K562 cells was increased. The ratio of giant cells was higher than that of nontransduced K562 cells. We suggested that I1-2 gene transduction might have some regulation effects on proliferative activity of K562 cells. IL-2 gene modified K562 cells might be blocked at a stage of G2.

Object To study the difference between Radi x Codonopsis (RC) and Radix Astragali (RA) on the central nerv ous system. Methods Sleeping was induced by pentobarbital sodium and ether. The water maze was used. Results Both RC and RA could prolong the sleeping time induced by pentobarbital sodium and ether. RC and RA had effect on the scopolamine-indu ced study and memory disturbance of mice. Conclusion The effect of RC on prolonging the sleeping time induced by pentobarbital sodium and ether is better than that of RA. On the study and memory disturbance induced by sc opolamine, RC is also better tha n RA.
