Regulatory T cells (Treg),a group of negative regulatory cells,have four subsets:CD4+Treg,CD8 + Treg,NKT Treg and DN Treg cells.They play an essential role in the inhibitive immune-regulation and might be the key factors of neoplasms immune escape.These mechanisms include inhibiting the effector cell function by inhibitory cytokines,killing effector cells by granzyme and perforin,competition and inhibiting IL-2,and affecting Treg differentiation and proliferation by regulating the function of CTLA-4,etc.Tumor immunotherapies targeting Treg and related immunosuppressive factors,such as remove Treg or controling the numbers and functions,enhances the immune response against tumors,which might offer a new method of tumor immunotherapy.

Objective To discuss the value of choledochoscopy via subcutaneous jejunal blind loop in the diagnosis and treatment of severe complications after pancreatoduodenectomy. Methods A fiber choledochoscope (FCC) was introduced through a subcutaneous jejunal blind loop. Under direct vision, the pancreatojejunal or choledochojejunal anastomotic leakages were coated with biological glue, or the anastomotic bleedings were stopped with hemostatic drugs. Results Five cases of intestinal leakage, 3 cases of biliary leakage and 2 cases of anastomotic bleeding were all cured. Follow-up for 1～3 years in the 10 cases found no recurrence of tumors. Choledochojejunal anastomotic stricture occurred in 1 case 1 year after the surgery and was cured by dilatation under fiber choledochoscope. In the remaining 9 cases, the pancreatic juice and bile fluid were excreted normally. Conclusions Application of FCC through the subcutaneous jejunal blind loop can be employed in the diagnosis and treatment of complications after pancreatoduodenectomy and in the long-term follow-up of pancreatojejunal or choledochojejunal anastomotic stoma under direct vision.

Objective To improve the technique of pancreatoduodenectomy in order to facilitate the(management) of complications and direct observation on follow up.Methods Pancreatoduodenectomy and Child′s method of digestive tract reconstruction was performed in 42 paltents.A blind loop of jejunum 5 to 6 cm in length was constructed beyond the pancreatojejular anastomosis and it was fixed to the subcutaneous(tissue) of the adjacent abdominal wall.Results Thirty-two cases recovered uneventfully,and 10 cases had complications induding pancreatic and biliary leakage and hemorrhage.These complications were successfully treated under direct vision by choledochoscope passed into the blind jejunal loop.This method of observation was used for long-time follow up in 22 cases,and revealed ercurrent tumor(n=5),bile duct stricture(n=4) and bile duct ascariasis(n=1).Conclusions This operative method did not cause new(complications) and it can be combined with the traditional operation.Postoperatively,direct observation and management of leakage of pancreatojejular anastomosis and biliointestinal anastomosis and hemorrhage can be accomplished,and the anastomoses and pancreatic stump can be directly observed at followup.

Objective To investigate the level of mental health and effect of psychological rehabilitation on paraplegic patients. Methods 38 paraplegic patients were randomly divided into control group (n=19) and treatment group (n=19). Both groups received physical therapy and occupational therapy, while the treatment group received psychotherapy in addition, once a week for 3 weeks. Their mental health level was assessed with Self-reporting Inventory. Results The psychological problems occurred was ranked as somatization, anxiety, fear, interpersonal sensitivity, depression and obsession from more to less. The scores of each factor reduced after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion The paraplegics are in poor mental health condition, so more psychotherapy intervention should be taken to improve their rehabilitation effect and quality of life.

BACKGROUND:Atlantoaxial anatomical structures were special. Compared with thoracolumbar vertebrae, there is no fixed anatomical marker for screw implantation. Moreover, pedicle structural variation is great. The current consensus view is to suggest an individualized program of pedicle screws. The development of orthopedic digital software technology provides a novel manner for preoperative design.
OBJECTIVE:To original y design 3D matrix model, to observe atlas pedicle channel, pedicle screw safety zone, to measure optimal program for screw fixation, and to simplify preoperative design of entering pedicle screw.
METHODS:Continuous atlas CT data of 12 healthy adults in picture archiving and communication system of People’s Hospital, Three Gorges University were imported into Mimics 10.01 software. There were seven males and five females, at the age of 30-65 years old, averagely 45 years. After three-dimensional reconstruction, the three-dimensional reconstruction models were imported into 3Dmax 2009 as .dwg format. The reference three-dimensional planes and the sites of nail insertion were determined by the atlas modeling. The modeling consisted of 17×17×2 elements and the transverse section angles ranged from 0° to 40° and the sagittal section angles ranged from 0° to 40° with a space of 2.5°. 578 elements were used to simulate pedicle screw array model. Perspective observation showed that the diameter was 3.5 mm, and length was 22 mm in pedicle channel. Thus, safety area, best screw channel and screw angle were analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The total number of elements in the matrix study was 17×17×2×12 in 12 subjects. 175 screws in total of 6 936 units could safely meet the operative standard. No significant difference in the number of pedicle screw between left and right sides (P>0.05). Results indicated that the digital three-dimensional modeling technology is an effective, simple, accurate way in the preoperative design and measurement for atlas pedicle surgery.

Objective To explore the mechanism of hepatic autophagy inhibition induced by ischemia-reperfusion injury in the aging liver.Methods The healthy male Lewis rats aged 3 months (3M) and 24 months (24M) were selected,and then were randomly divided into 3M IRI group,3M sham operation group,24M IRI group,24M sham operation group.In the experimental group,noninvasive vascular clamp was used to clamp the left and middle hepatic lobes (about 70o％ hepatic ischemia).The liver was subjected to ischemia at 37 0.5℃ for 30min and reperfusion for 6h.The hepatic duodenal ligament was dissected only by sham operation.The serum levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were measured at 6 h after operation.Liver tissues of each group were examined by liver pathology and the number of autophagosome of LC3B in liver tissue of each group was observed under confocal microscopy.The changes of autophagyrelated protein were analyzed by Western blotting.Results The levels of serum ALT and AST in 24M IRI group were significantly higher than those in 3M IRI group,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Pathological analysis showed that 3M IRI group showed spotty necrosis,the 24M IRI group showed massive necrosis and the infiltration of the inflammatory cells;Confocal microscopy showed that the number of autophagosome in the liver tissue of the 24M sham group was slightly lower than that of the 3M sham operation group and the number of autophagosome in the 24M IRI group was significantly lower than that in the 3M IRI group (P＜0.05).The levels of autophagyrelated proteins (Beclin1 and ATG4B protein) in 24M IRI group were significantly down-regulated compare to 3M IRI group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The ischemia-reperfusion injury of liver in aged rats inhibits autophagy,and its mechanism may be related to the decrease of autophagy-related protein level in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury.

A novel unsaturated polyphosphoester (UPPE) was devised in our previous research, which is a kind of promising scaffold for improving bone regeneration. However, the polymerization process of UPPE scaffolds was unfavorable, which may adversely affect the bioactivity of osteoinductive molecules added if necessary, such as recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP2). The purpose of this study was to build a kind of optimal scaffold named UPPE-PLGA-rhBMP2 (UPB) and to investigate the bioactivity of rhBMP2 in this scaffold. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of UPB scaffold was assessed in vitro. A W1/O/W2 method was used to fabricate PLGA-rhBMP2 microspheres, and then the microspheres were added to UPPE for synthesizing UPB scaffold. The morphological characters of PLGA-rhBMP2 microspheres and UPB scaffolds were observed under the scanning electron microscopy and laser scanning confocal microscopy. The cumulative release of UPB scaffolds was detected by using ELISA. The cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of UPB scaffolds were evaluated through examining the adsorption and apoptosis of bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs) seeded on the surface of UPB scaffolds. The bioactivity of rhBMP2 in UPB scaffolds was assessed through measuring the alkaline phosphates (ALP) activity in bMSCs seeded. The results showed that UPB scaffolds sequentially exhibited burst and sustained release of rhBMP2. The cytotoxicity was greatly reduced when the scaffolds were immersed in buffer solution for 2 h. bMSCs attached and grew on the surface of soaked UPB scaffolds, exerting well biocompatibility. The ALP activity of bMSCs seeded was significantly enhanced, indicating that the bioactivity of rhBMP2 remained and still took effect after the unfavorable polymerization process of scaffolds. It was concluded that UPB scaffolds have low cytotoxicity, good biocompatibility and preserve bioactivity of rhBMP2. UPB scaffolds are promising in improving bone regeneration.

Objective To study the correlation between 5-serotonin transporter ( 5-HTT) gene pol-ymorphism and the first episode major depressive disorder ( MDD ) and cognitive function in adolescent. Methods 5-HTT genotype and allele were detected by polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) amplification of 76 patients with first episode of MDD and 73 normal controls. Case control method was used to analyze the correlation between different genotypes and the onset, the clinical features, and cognitive function. Result-s There was no significant difference between 5-HTTLPR genotype frequencies for the 41 cases of type S/S (53.9%),27 cases of type L/S(35.5%),8 cases of type L/L(10.5%)of case group and 5-HTTLPR geno-type frequencies for the 38 cases of type S/S(52.1%),18 cases of type L/S(24.7%),17 cases of type L/L (23.3%) of control group(P>0.05).Patients with S/S type,L/S type had significantly higher sleep scores than those of patients with type L/L(P=0.005,P=0.001). Agitation score in patients with S/S type group was significantly higher than that in patients with S/L,L/L(P=0.000,P=0.001);patients with S/S inferior-ity scores were significantly lower than those of patients with S/L,L/L(P=0.002,P=0.006). There was no significant difference in cognitive function among three groups. Conclusions In Chinese Han population, there may be no direct association between 5-HTTLPR gene polymorphism and susceptibility to MDD and its cognitive function in adolescents. S/S and L/S patients may be prone to sleep problems,type S/S patients may be prone to irritability and type L/L patients may be prone to inferiority.

Objective: To investigate the intestinal motor function (distal colonic manometry and gastrointestinal transit time) after T. spiralis infection in rats. Methods: Sprague Dawley rats were infected by administering T. spiralis larvae. Rats were studied on 14, 42, and 56 days post infection (PI). Age matched non infected animals served as controls. All rats underwent colonic manometry and gastrointestinal transit time test. Results: (1) The small intestinal inflammation became the most severe on day 14 PI, and returned to normal on day 56. (2) The distal colonic manometry showed significantly active motility in acute infected rats either at rest or upon balloon stimulating. (3) Rat colonic motility parameters were not different from those of the control rats either at rest or upon small volume (1mL) balloon stimulating on day 42 and day 56 PI. But when the balloon was inflated with 2 mL of air, the colonic activity increased significantly compared with that of the control. (4) Gastrointestinal transit time was slower in acute and PI rats than that in the control group. Conclusion: Intestinal motility function was abnormal persistently after transient intestinal nematode infection in rats either in distal colonic manometry or in gastrointestinal transit time.
