Objective To explore the expression of DC?SIGN, the phenotype of dendritic cells (DCs), on podocytes, and its role in immune and inflammatory responses of lupus nephritis (LN). Methods DC?SIGN and IgG1 expression in renal tissues of lupus nephritis patients were observed by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. The 4?week old LN mice were randomly divided into the experimental group and the intervention group. C57BL/6J mice were used as normal control group. Mice of the intervention group were injected anti?DC?SIGN antibody at 6?week old. Mice were sacrificed at 16, 20, 24, 28?week old respectively, to observe the mice renal function and pathological changes. And DC?SIGN and IgG1 expression in renal tissue were observed by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. In addition, mice podocytes were treated with serum of LN mice. Flow cytometry was used to investigate the expression of MHC II, CD80 and DC?SIGN expression on podocytes. Mixed lymphocyte reaction was used to detect the ability of stimulating T cells proliferation. IFN?gamma and IL?4 in supernatant were determined by ELISA. Results (1) Expression of DC?SIGN and IgG1 was found in glomeruli of lupus nephritis patients. (2) Accompanied by increased proteinuria of LN mice from 20?week old (P<0.01), DC?SIGN and IgG1 expression was found in glomeruli, and the renal function deteriorated up to 24 week?old (P<0.01). Mice with anti?DC?SIGN antibody intervention appeared reduced proteinuria and remission of renal function (P<0.01). (3) After stimulated by serum of LN mice, the expression of DC?SIGN, MHC II and CD80 was up?regulated, stimulation of T cell proliferation was enhanced (P<0.01), and IFN?gamma/IL?4 ratio increased (P<0.01). Anti?DC?SIGN antibody treatment down?regulated the expressions of DC?SIGN, MHC II and CD80 on podocytes, decreased the ability of stimulating T cell proliferation and lowered the ratio of IFN?gamma/IL?4 (P<0.01). Conclusions Podocytes in lupus nephritis can play DC?like function through the expression of DC?SIGN, which may be involved in immune and inflammatory responses of renal tissue. However, inhibiton of DC?SIGN can depress immune function of podocytes and have prevention and treatment effect.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of perioperative administration of rhubarb on the acute inflammatory response in patients with gastric cancer. METHODS: In this prospective, single-blinded, controlled clinical trial, thirty-one patients with gastric cancer operatively treated were randomly divided into two groups, with 14 patients in control group and 17 in study group. Patients in both groups were given an isocaloric and isonitrogenous enteral diet. The enteral diet was started 36 hours after operation, and continued for 6 days. Patients in the study group were fed with rhubarb before operation, and at 1 day and 2 days after operation. Indexes of acute inflammatory response such as serum C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), and indexes of nutritional status such as serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA) and transferrin (TRF) were measured before operation, and at 1 day, 3 and 7 days after operation. RESULTS: Patients in both groups had acute inflammatory response, and the indexes of nutritional status decreased after operation.IL-6, CRP and TNF-alpha tested at 3 and 7 days after operation were lower in the study group as compared with those in the control group, and the recovery time of gastrointestinal motility such as borborygmus, gas elimination and defecation was shorter in the study group as compared with that in the control group. The indexes of nutritional status showed no significant differences between two groups after operation. CONCLUSION: Rhubarb can positively modulate the acute inflammatory response, promote the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal motility, and benefit enteral nutrition support in patients who have undergone major operations for gastric cancer.
