Objective To investigate the role of integrin CD11b in liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and its possible mechanism.Method CD11b-/-and WT (C57BL/6) mice were used to establish a 70% liver warm I/R by clamping the left and median liver lobes for 60 min with vascular micro clamp at 37℃,then the clamp was removed and the abdominal incision was sutured.The blood plasma and liver samples were obtained at different time points (1,3,6,12,24 and 48 h) postreperfusion to assess liver function and cellular injury.Serum ALT and AST levels were determined,and HE staining and TUNEL assay were performed to estimate the severity of liver damage.Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were assayed by Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Kupffer cells were isolated from the live,and the reduced form of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and active oxygen species (ROS) production were assayed.Result CD11b-/-mice displayed a significantly preserved liver function as represented by lower alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartic transaminase (AST) levels,less histological damage and apoptosis compared to WT mice.Furthermore,TNF-α was decreased and IL-10 mRNA expression was increased in CD11b-/-mice compared to WT mice.Finally,CD11b-/-mice showed decreased activity of NADPH oxidase and less ROS production.Conclusion Integrin CD11 b may regulate the levels of inflammatory (TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines,enhance the activity of NADPH oxidase in Kupffer cells and enrich the production of ROS,which aggravate liver I/R injury.

AIM: To investigate the effect of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on the proliferation of murine T lymphocytes stimulated by Con A in vitro and its related immunosuppressive mechanism. METHODS: Murine T lymphocytes were stimulated by Con A and treated with different concentrations of DHA. Cell proliferation was measured by carboxyl fluoresce in diacetate succinmidyl ester (CFDA-SE) staining. The expression of CD69, CD25 and CD71,which was the marker of early, middle, later activation of CD3~+ T lymphocytes, was measured by flow cytometry (FCM) combined with two-color immunofluorescent staining of cell surface antigen. Fluorescence calcium indicator fluo-4/AM was used to measure the change of the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca~(2+)]_i) of murine T lymphocytes. The distribution of the cell cycle was analyzed by PI staining. The expression of CD69, the early activation antigen on CD4~+CD25~(high) Treg was also measured by FCM combined with three-color immunofluorescent staining. RESULTS: The result of CFDA-SE staining showed that DHA efficiently inhibited the Con A-induced proliferation of T-lymphocytes in a time-and dose-dependent manners. DHA showed modestly increased proportions of CD69 and CD25 on Con A-stimulated CD3~+T cells, but inhibited the expression of CD25 in a dose dependent manner. DHA with Con A, but not DHA alone, caused an increase in intracellular calcium concentration of T cells. The results of FCM analysis with PI staining showed that DHA imposed a total cell cycle arrest in G_0/G_1 and prevented cells entering S phase and G_2/M phase. Furthermore, DHA reduced the expression of CD69 on CD4~+CD25~(high) Treg. CONCLUSION: DHA, which exhibits immunosuppressive effect on the proliferation of murine T-lymphocytes, is promising to be developed as an immunosuppressive reagent.

Objective To investigate the effect of berberine anti macrophages apoptosis, initially to determine the concentration of anti-apoptosis and to explore its mechanisms of treatment in atherosclerosis (AS). Methods Apoptosis of RAW264.7 macrophages is induced by 0.5 μmol/L Tg and 50 μg/ml Fuc. The cell survival rate and apoptosis rate was detected by MIT and flow cytometry, respectively. Results There was statistical significance between the berberine group of 800 μg/ml and normal group in the cell sur-vival rate(P<0.01). With the decline in concentration of berberine, the cell apoptosis rate showed a down-ward trend, berberine (0.02-0.63 μg/ml) effectively inhibited the cell apoptosis induced by Tg and Fuc. Conclusion Berberine group has little impact on the cell proliferation. Berberine can effectively inhibit the cell apoptosis induced by Tg and Fuc.

Objective To study the effects of nerocutneous vessels on perforator flap blood supply and survival area. Methods Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. The study of the vasculature and nerve disposition of rat dorsum was performed with 10 rats of one group. According to the study,a distal rectangle neurocutaneous flap based on deep circumflex iliac artery perforator, 10 cm long and 3 cm in the width, was elevated on the rest rats, and sutured back to the original situation. The axis of the experimental group's flap paralleles the posterior median line,while the control group flap's angulated about 30° with it. The blood flow of the flap was assessed by fluorescein angiography on the 1st and 7th day after surgery. The surviving rate and the capillary density of flap were assessed on the 7th day after surgery. Results The rat deep circumflex iliac perforator artery was a constant perforator artery, with an nutrition area about 4 cm× 3 cm. The dorsal cutaneous nerves run along the dorsomedian line, nourished by rich vessels. The blood perfusion 1st day after surgery was 42.85% in the experimental group, 37.94% in the control group(P > 0.01 ).On the 7th day, it was 84.07% in the experimental group, 58.55% in the control group (P< 0.01). The mean survival rate of the experimental group was 83.93%, higher than control group's 59.95% (P<0.01),and the density of the blood vessels was higher in experimental group than control group's. Conclusion The neurocutaneous vessels can improve the flap survival condition, which make the perforator flap bigger and safer.
