ObjectiveTo observe the effects of high mobility group box-1 protein ( HMGB1 ) on function of murine spleen IL-10-producing dendritic cells (DCs) subset CD11clowCD45RBhighDCs.MethodsSplenic CD11clowCD45RBhighDCs and CD4 +T cells in Balb/c mice were purified by magnetic beads sorting.CD11clowCD45RBhighDCs were treated with various doses of HMGB1 (0,20,100,500ng/ml).Flow cytometry was used to determine expressions of CD11clowCD45RBhighDC surface molecules including CD40,CD80,CD86,Ⅰ-a/e and Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4.IL-10 level in CD11clow CD45RBhighDC culture supernatants was determined by ELISA method.The CD4+ T cells were divided into four groups: control group (without only treatment),untreated group (HMGB1-untreated CD11clow CD45RBhigh DCs plus CD4+T cells),high-dose HMGB1-treated group (500 ng/ml HMGB1-treated CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs plus CD4 +T cells),high-dose HMGB1-treated + antibody 1 group (500 ng/ml HMGB1-treated CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs plus IL-10 antibody and CD4+T cells),high-dose HMGB1-treated + antibody 2 group (500 ng/ml HMGB1-treated CD11clow CD45RBhigh DCs plus homotype IL-10 antibody and CD4 +T cells).IL-4 as well as interferon( IFN-γ) contents in CD4 + T cell culture supernatants were determined by flow cytometry.ResultsHMGB1 could markedly enhance the expressions of CD40,CD86 and TLR4 on CD11clowCD45RBhigh DC surface as well as level of IL-10 secreted by CD11clow CD45RBhigh DCs as compared with the non-HMGB1 treatment.Meantime,the secretion of IL-10 was HMGB1 concentration dependent.IFN-γ level in high-dose HMGB1-treated group was (279 ± 17) pg/ml,which was markedly lower than that in the untreated group [ (963 ± 11 ) pg/ml,P ＜ 0.05 \ ].IL-4 level in high-dose HMGB1-treated group was (372 ± 14) pg/ml,which was significantly higher than that in the untreated group [ (213 ± 10) pg/ml,P ＜0.05) \].ConclusionsHMGB1 promotes IL-10 production in CD11clowCD45RBhighDCs,induces the differentiation of CD4 +T cells to Th2 cells and downregulates the immune response via activating CD11clowCD45RBhigh DCs.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of glycine on the lung injury in acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP). Methods Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: sham operation, ANP group,pretreated group and treatment group(with intravenous glycine 1g/kg). Serum TNF ? level,glutathione (GSH) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in pulmonary homogenate were determined at 6, 12, and 24h hours after ANP induced. Pulmonary pathology and 3 day survival rate were compared between the groups.Results Compared with ANP group,in glycine pretreated group serum TNF ? level significantly reduced at 6,12, and 24h,while in glycine treatment group serum TNF ? level decreased at 24-hour . In glycine pretreated group or treatment group, the pulmonary GSH content were decreased.In both glycine pretreated group and glycine treatment group, pulmonary MPO activity decreased at 12 and 24h,and pulmonary pathologic severity significantly ameliorated and survival rate increased. Conclusions Although glycine can not increase the GSH synthesis,but giving prophylactic or therapeutic glycine may be effective in improving acute lung injury in ANP, probably through the inhibition of the infiltration and activation of leukocytes.

This paper reported a sporadic case of a 29-year-old Han female diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) by next generation sequencing (NGS),one of genetic analysis techniques.She was admitted because of recurrent intractable seizure for 26 years,dizziness and headache for 3 months.Physical examination revealed angiofibromas over her face,shagreen patches in her lower back area,and hypomelanotic macules around her limbs and body.Cranial MRI manifested lesions on lateral ventricles,cerebellar vermis and left temporal lobe with abnormal signal changes on both sides of extensive cerebral cortex.A pathogenic and heterozygous missense mutation,c.T1967C,in exon 16 of her TSC1 gene was found via genetic tests,which has not yet been reported before.

Compared with patients with high-middle rectal cancer,local recurrent rate of low rectal cancer in patients is worse.The poor outcome of low rectal cancer is due to the unique anatomical features of the low rectum and the lack of clearly defined anatomical excision planes.Therefore,how to use the appropriate imaging methods,evaluate accurately preoperative cancer staging,plan feasible surgical plane and select the appropriate surgical approach,these will be very important for radical resection of rectal cancer.Therefore,the quality of life and long-term survival of the patients will be improved.

Objective To compare the treament to adhesion ileus between laparoscopic surgery and traditional surgery.Methods 59 cases of patients with adhesion ileus were selected.32 patients were given laparoscopic adhesion ileus loose solution method.And the other 32 patients were given traditional surgery.Results The operation time(t =12.135,P =0.002),peristalsis recovery time (t =9.053,P =0.001),postoperative infection rate (x2 =8.346,P =0.004),obstruction again (x2 =4.863,P =0.026) and hospital stays (t =4.724,P =0.028) in laparoscopic surgery group was significantly better.The differences between both groups were statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with the traditional open surgery,laparoscopic adhesion ileus loose solution with surgical trauma is small.Operation time and the postoperative recovery time is short,It can be used as the main treatment of adhesion ileus.

Translation is a process not only concerning on the language transformation, but also concerning on the cultural communications. However, due to the diversity between cultures, translation loss is a stumbling block which has to be coped with, or a necessary process called translation compensation. This paper, employing the method of text analysis, attempts to compare two English versions ofHuangdi-Neijing by Veith and Li-Zhaoguo as study cases to discuss the translation compensation strategies from the perspective of Bassnett’s cultural translation theory, thus achieving the optimal translation effect.

This article proposes the integrated outline of excessive heat accumulated in chest syndrome from the view of Fu-viscera disease of sanjiao based on numbers of clinical experiences,which can prove that the objective existence and theory of sanjiao fu-viscera has specific significance.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of RNA interference(RNAi)on WT1 gene expression in HL-60 cell line.Methods Several pairs of small interfering RNA(siRNA)for WT1 gene was designed and transfected into HL-60 cells.WT1 gene expression was assessed by RT-PCR,and WT1 protein expression was tested by Western blot.Flow cytometry was used to measure the cell apoptosis.Results The expression rates of WT1 mRNA and the expression rates of WT1 protein were(23.62%?1.28%),(23.20%?1.04%),respectively in HL-60 WT1 siRNA-transfected cells,significantly lower than those of control cells(P

Leptin,a polypeptide hormone coded by Ob-gene,has the functions of depressing appetite,reducing caloric intake and enhancing caloric consumption,etc.Leptin has a close relationship with kidney,for it is metabolized and eliminated via kidney.Meanwhile,leptin can also directly affect kidney functions,influencing the process of chronic renal failure.Furthermore,hyper-leptinemia is associated with anorexia,malnutrition and cardiovascular diseases.Different dialysis patterns may also play different roles in cleaning leptin.For example,common dialysis could not clear leptin,but other dialysis modes such as high permeability dialysis,hemodiafiltration,and mastic absorption hemoperfusion can alleviate hyper-leptinemia through cleaning leptin partly.For kidney transplantation patients,hyper-leptinemia may affect the immune balance which has been maintained for a long time.

Dioxin,as a kind of strong carcinogenic substance,a kind of environment hormone with tremendous harm,can get into human body through food chain and accumulate in fat of animals and persons,forming serious threat to human health. Dioxin has been included in the list of monitoring objects in food part of the global environment monitoring program as a new environmental pollutant by World Health Organization. In this paper,the toxicity,the source of dioxin and its impact on human health and prevention and control measures are introduced.
