OBJECTIVE:To investigate the significance of tacrolimus blood concentration monitoring to the therapy of mem-branous nephropathy. METHODS:41 patients with membranous nephropathy received tacrolimus,and the blood concentration of ta-crolimus reached to steady state. The trough concentration of tacrolimus was determined by EMIT. The patients were followed up, and clinical therapeutic efficacies were recorded. The relationship of blood concentration of tacrolimus with clinical efficacy was evaluated by SPSS 16.0 software. RESULTS:The blood concentration of tacrolimus was(7.47±2.74)ng/ml in complete remission (CR)group,(5.72±1.19)ng/ml in partial response(PR)group,and(3.30±1.08)ng/ml in no response(NR)group,with total remission rate of 75.61%. The blood concentration of CR group was the highest,followed by PR group and NR group,there was statistical significance among 3 groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The clinical efficacy of tacrolimus in the treatment of nephrot-ic syndrome is correlate to the blood concentration intimately. Trough concentration monitoring of tacrolimus has important signifi-cance to the treatment of membranous nephropathy.

Objective To analyze the feasibility of the recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (rCTB) as a carrier protein candidate for the preparing of polysaccharide-protein conjugate, and to discuss the immune effects of tetanus toxoid (TT) as the carrier protein in mucosal delivery vaccine. Methods The refolded pentrumer protein, rCTB was obtained by genetic engineering methods. Then conjugated the refold-ed protein with group A meningococcal polysaccharide (GAMP) using the chemical method(ADH) ,the pol-ysaccharide-protein conjugates(GAMP-rCTB) were prepared. BALB/c mice were immunized either intraper-itoneally ( i. p. ) or intranasally ( i. n. ) with GAMP-rCTB. Moreover, GAMP-TT vaccine that TT as carrier proteins was i.n. immunized to the mice. The evaluation of immunology is performed. Results The conju-gates of polysaccharide-potein with the rCTB and TT as protein carrier both are able to elicit high level of GAMP specific IgG antibody in serum after i.n. immunization, and the conjugates can also elicit specific IgA antibody in lung lavage and intestinal mucosa. Conclusion rCTB and TT can both as the protein carri-er for polysaccharide-protein conjugate as mucosal vaccine. The route of intranasal may be more ways for im-mune function than i.p. immunization when rCTB is used as the carrier of the polysaccharide-protein conju-gates.
