Adult male rats weighing 250-300 g were used to study ACPase and ATPase in the liver following 60Co radiation on the whole body for a single dose 2000 rad(95.7-99r/min). The irradiated group and the control group were sacrificed at intervals of 1, 2, 3 days after irradiation. The left liver lobe was removed, fro/en in dryice-isopentane, and then cut in a cryostat. ACPase and ATPase activities were revealed by histochemical and cytochemical methods respectively.In the control group, ACPase activity was found to be mainly localized in the vicinity of bile canaliculi, and generally higher in the periportal region than in the centrilobular region. The distribution of ATPase reaction products was much like that of ACPase.On the 1st day after irradiation, a slight decrease was found in ACPase and ATPase activities, while on the 2nd and 3rd days in both of them was found a marked increase especially in the periportal region. These results were in agreement with cytochemical observations.The significance of these results and related problems were discussed.

Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the presence of various autoantibodies and may cause injuries to multiple organs,with kidney as the most common and important organ involved.Autoantibodies are of great importance in the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of autoimmune renal diseases.Lupus nephritis,anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis and antiglomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease are the most common autoimmune renal diseases.Anti-C1q antibody,ANCA and anti-GBM antibody play important roles in those diseases,respectively.Appropriate and steady detecting methods are crucial to clinicians,and the results should also be interpreted with great cautions.

Application research on human amniotic membrane has been carried out for nearly a hundred years and people found that there were more than dozens of kinds bioactive substances in the amniotic membrane. It has been proved that the amniotic membrane has a lot of functions, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-virus, anti-angiogenic and promoting cell apoptosis, and soon. As effective treatments, amniotic membrane has been used for adjunctive therapy of burns, trauma, ophthalmic damage, dermatopathya. Recent advances of amniotic membrane and amniotic membrane-derived cells research have led to enormous progress in skin tissue engineering, vascular tis- sue engineering, biological scaffold material, and biological sustained-release materials. Amniotic membrane and amniotic membrane derived cells have a significant advantage and unique charm in medical field. Therefore, they have higher research value and broad prospects in the applications.

MYO1E gene is located on chromosome 15 and encodes myosin 1e,which acts as an actin-based molecular motor of cytoskeleton. Myosin 1e is critical to maintain the podocyte function and the conse-quent integrity of the glomerular filtration barrier. Mutations in MYO1E gene has been indentified to be the cause of childhood-onset,familial steroid-resistant focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Surprisingly,three patients with MYO1E mutations had partial remission by cyclosporine therapy. Detection of the MYO1E gene in the patients suffering from steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome will be beneficial to make therapeutic decisions and predict prognoses.

As one of active immune effector molecules,immunoglobulins play an important role in the pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune bullous diseases.Human immunoglobulins can be divided into 5 categories,including IgG,IgA,IgM,IgD and IgE,and all of them participate in and play different roles in the pathogenesis of autoimmune bullous diseases except IgD.IgG can induce the formation of blisters by activating complements and leukocytes as well as by releasing proteolytic enzymes,and different subtypes of IgG differ in biological activities.IgA can cause granulocyte migration and lead to the formation of blisters and pustules.IgE is associated with urticaria-like erythema and eosinophil infiltration.IgM is usually seen in Brazilian pemphigus foliaceus.These findings may provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune bullous diseases.

Objective The objective of this study was to determine the effect of curative chemotherapy regimen on breast cancer cells and its mechanism.Methods A tumor-bearing mouse model was established and routine dose of capecitabine was given as a conventional chemotherapy group.Continuous low-dose capecitabine chemotherapy was used as a radiotherapy group and no chemotherapy was used as a control group.The expression of microvessel density(MVD),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and thrombospondin 1(TSP-1)were measured by flow cytometry.The percentage of myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs),NK cells and macrophages in the program was observed.The tumor size and blood leukocyte count were measured after chemotherapy.Results MVD and VEGF in the radiotherapy group were significantly decreased and TSP-1 was significantly increased in comparison with the conventional chemotherapy group(P<0.05).The proportion of MDSCs in the radiotherapy group was significantly decreased,the proportion of NK cells and macrophages were significantly increased when compared to the conventional chemotherapy group(P<0.05).The tumor volume was no difference between the control and chemotherapy groups(P>0.05).However,the white blood cell count in the radiotherapy group was significantly higher than that in the conventional chemotherapy group(P<0.05).Conclusion Capecitabine chemotherapy at continuous low-dose inhibits neovascularization and adjusts the proportion of immune cells to suppress tumor formation.Thus,this chemotherapy could reduce side effects caused by chemotherapy and improve the quality of life.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the optimizing conditions in isolation of the side population in laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2. METHOD: Single-cell suspension cells were detached from the culture flask with trypsin EDTA, at a concentration of 1 x 10(6) cells/ml. (1) The trail Samples were incubated with Hoechst33342 at a concentration of 5 microg/ml, 9 microg/ml, 10 microg/ml, 11 microg/ml for 90 minutes. (2) They were incubated with Hoechst for 50, 70, 90, 110, 130 min in water bath individually. (3) The single-cell suspension were incubated Hoechst in water bath and in thermostat each. (4) The two different density of cells were harvested, which were 100% and 70%, and then di gest into single-cell suspension. Once incubation finished, suspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), then test SP% by flow cytometry. Among all groups,Verapamil hydrochloride was added to the control samples, incubated at 37 degrees C for 30 minutes, the other condition were keep the same with their trial groups. RESULT: (1) The percentage of Hoechst-negative cells in trial group was (39.96 +/- 0.24)%, (26.23 +/- 0.39)%. (18.79 +/- 0.02)%, (19.01 +/- 0.14)% at the concentration of 5 microg/ml, 9 microg/ml, 10 microg/ml, 11 microg/ml respectively, when the PI-positive cells were (30.45 +/- 0.63)%, (49.9 +/- 0.42)%, (50.12 +/- 0.68)%, (64.16 +/- 0.39)% separately. (2) Varying the duration of staining incubation showed that there was a typical FACS pattern and SP% was constant when the incubation was at least 90 min. (3) Compare to water bath, SP% was more than in thermostat, the SP% was (18.67 +/- 0.45)%, (22.6 +/- 0.50)% respectively; (4) Cell density is also responsible for SP%. The low density the cell is, the less in SP%. SPSS13.0 was used in statistical analysis, the groups were compared using t-Test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. CONCLUSION The optimum concentration and duration of incubation of Hoechst33342 in isolation of the side population cells in laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2 is 10 microg/ml and 90 min. Incubated in water bath is better than in thermostat. The best staining cell density is around 80%-90%.
