Objective To identify hepatitis C virus(HCV)-specific cytotoxicity T lymphocytes (CTL)epitopes by the combination of T epitopes prediction software and in vitro assays.Methods HCVspecific CTL epitopes were predicted by T epitope prediction software Rankpep and then candidate HCV-specific CTL epitopes were selected.Candidate HCV-specific CTL epitopes were used to stimulate PBMC of HCV-infected patients and healthy volunteers.and then enzyme-linked immunospot(ELISPOT)and intracellular cytokine staining(ICS)were used to measure the frequencies of IFN-γ-producing cells in total PBMC and the percentages of IFN-γ+CD8+T cells in total CD8+T cells,respectively.Results Five candidate CTL epitopes[NS3 450(TVPQDAVSR),NS3 594(GPTLLYRL),Ns4b 78(sMMAFSAAL),NS5a 416(SEENVSVVF)and NS5a 367(TVSSALAEL)]were used to stimulate PBMC of ten HCV-infected patients and two healthy volunteers.PBMC of seven HCV-infected patients secreted IFN-γ while PBMC of healthy volunteers did not produce IFN-γ.The frequencies of peptide-specific IFN-γ-producing cells ranged from 5 to 36 SFC/105 PBMC and the percentages of peptide-specific IFN-γ+CD8+T cells ranged from 0.02%-0.25%.Conclusion Resuhs of ELISPOT assay and ICS assay confirm that these five peptides NS3 450,NS3 594,NS4b 78,NS5a 416 and NS5a 367 are identified as Hovel HCV-specific CTL epitopes.

BACKGROUND: In the research, the recipe for kidney tonification is prepared into "topical form" and "oral form". According to the interrelationship of "acupoints-meridans and collaterals-internal organs-target organs", osteoporosis is treated by the approaches of point compress and oral application respectively. According to the traditional theory of Chinese medicine, it is to infer that the herbs bring the adjustment into play by"being attributive to kidney meridian", but,whether does the specialty of herbs on "targeting medication" happenpractically or not? Hormones in "hypothalamus-pituitary- target gland" system is assayed to further analyze estrogen receptor and androgen receptor of target organs,such as kidney,bone, uterus, thyroid gland and testis so as to observe the relativity between "tropism and receptor".DESIGN: Complete random design with the objects of osteoporosis rats, and the control experimental study with kidney tonification recipe administrate with different approaches.OBJECTIVE: To probe into the effect of kidney tonification recipe on pituitary-thyroid axis in experimental osteoporosis.SETTING: College of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hebei Medical University.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Chinese-Western integrated Basic Experiment Room of Hebei Medical University from January 2000 to December 2004. Sixty SD healthy female rats of 3-month old were employed,weighted(300 ± 20) g. The experimental animals were provided by Hebei Experimental Animal Center. After bred routinely for 1 week in Experimental Room, the rats were randomized into 6 groups,namely normal control(10rats), pathological model group(10 rats), infusing group(10 rats) in which kidney tonification recipe was applied based on 0. 8 g/100 g body mass,acupoint paste on bladder meridian group (10 rats), acupoint paste on kidney meridian group(10 rats) and paste on non-meridian group(10 rats). METHODS: Osteoporosis model was prepared with injection of dexamethasonc. Antagonism osteoporosis acupoint paste(AOAP)on acupoints and non-neridian places was administrated to compare with oral recipe for kidney tonification in the treatment of osteoporosis. It took the changes in serum estrogen, bone density, calcitonin/parathyroid hormone(CT/PTH), thyrotropic hormone(TSH), freeT3andfreeT4asthemeasuringindexes. Immunocyto-chemistry stain and morphological measurement of TSH cell,follicular adenoma of thyroid gland(C cell) and thyroid globulin(Tg) were applied in pituitary gland and thyroid gland to observe the therapeutic results.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Adjustment of the recipe for kidney tonification on thyroid function. ② Adjustment of the recipe for kidney tonification on bone density.RESULTS: AOAP improved the levels of estrogen, CT/PTH, TSH, free T3and free T4, increased bone density. The counts of TSH cell, C cell and Tg positive reaction substance were increased and they were colored deeply.CONCLUSION: AOPA, by "multiple relevant convergence reaction", adjusts and affects systematically the endocrinal function of bone metabolism,improves the levels of estrogen and CT/PTH, reverses the declining tendency of pituitary-thyroid axis function and improves thyroid function so as to weaken osteocyte in the bony absorption, enhance osteoblast in osteogenesis and increase bone density.

This study was aimed to evaluate the cyto-compatibility of PGLA film for periodontal guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and their degradable products. Different extraction temperature, time and ratio were used to assess the cell relative growth rate (RGR) for PGLA. The degradable solution were brought into contact with cultured cells in vitro to observe the effects of cytotoxicity at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 weeks. The results showed when the extraction ratio was 0.1 g/ml, the extraction time has no effects on cytotoxicity at 37 degrees C. When the ratio was 0.1 cm2/ml, slight cytotoxic reaction appeared with the increase of extraction temperature (50 degrees C or 70 degrees C). When the extraction ratio was 0.5 cm2/ml in contract with the degradable solution at 37 degrees C for 72 h, the cell growth rate decreased. When the ratio was 6 cm2/ml, the cytotoxicity existed in some degree even if the temperature was at 37 degrees C for 24 h. After 2-4 w, the degradable solution had no obvious toxic effects on cells. However, the RGR gradually decreased as the degradation period increased. In conclusion, the effects of the extraction temperature, time, ratio and the degradation products accumulating in solution on RGR may exist. PGLA film has a good cytocompatibility.

Objective:To explore the effect of music relaxation training combined with Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction oral administration and foot bath on fatigue status and quality of life in patients with cancer related fatigue.Methods:A total of 90 patients with cancer related fatigue in our hospital from January 2019 to October 2020 were selected. The patients were divided into 2 groups by random number table method, with 45 in each group. Both groups were given health and diet education. The control group was given music relaxation training, and the observation group took Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction oral administration and foot bathing on the basis of the control group. Both groups have a course of treatment of 4 weeks, a total of 3 courses. The TCM syndrome scores were observed before and after treatment, and the Piper Fatigue Score (PFS) was used to evaluate fatigue status, and the Karnofsky functional state score was used to evaluate the quality of life of patients, evaluation of clinical efficacy.Results:After treatment, 43 patients in the observation group and 42 patients in the control group were analyzed. The total effective rate of the observation group was 83.72% (36/43), which was significantly higher than 64.29% (27/42) of the control group ( χ2=4.18, P=0.041). After treatment, the TCM syndrome scores in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( t=2.48, P=0.015). After treatment, the Karnofsky functional state score in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( t=2.83, P=0.006). After treatment, the emotion score (4.35±1.02 vs. 5.03±1.01, t=3.09), feeling score (4.31±1.06 vs. 5.00±1.02, t=3.06) and total score (4.23±1.07 vs. 4.87±1.10, t=2.72) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Music relaxation training combined with Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction oral administration and foot bathing can alleviate the fatigue state of CRF patients and improve the quality of life.

Objective: To explore the effects and molecular mechanism of the selective JAK1inhibitor SHR0302 and Ruxolitinib on myeloproliterative neoplasms (MPN) cell line SET2 and primary cells in vitro. Methods: Cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 kit. Colony forming experiment was conducted to evaluate erythroid burst colony formation unit (BFU-E) of primary cells from MPN patients. Multi-factor kits were used to detect six inflammatory cytokines. Phosphorylated proteins of Jak-Stat signaling pathway were tested by Western blot. Results: At different time points after treated with SHR0302 and Ruxolitinib, the inhibition of cell proliferation was dose dependent by both drugs (P<0.01) . The inhibitory rates of 2.5 μmol/L SHR0302 and 0.1 μmol/L Ruxolitinib on SET2 cells for 72 h were comparable, i.e. (59.94±0.60) % and (64.00±0.66) %, respectively, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of SHR0302 was weaker than that of Ruxolitinib. Similarly, both SHR0302 and Ruxolitinib inhibited BFU-E in primary marrow cells from MPN patients in a dose-dependent manner. SHR0302 1.0 μmol/L produced similar degree of inhibition compared to Ruxolitinib 0.2 μmol/L. Except IL-12, the expression of other 5 cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-8) was significantly inhibited by 1.6 μmol/L SHR0302 in SET2 cells at 24 h (P<0.01) , while Ruxolitinib 1.0 μmol/L had the same effect. Several phosphorylated molecules of Jak-Stat signaling pathway were significantly inhibited by SHR0302 in SET2 cells only for 3 h. P-stat1 (Tyr701) , p-stat3 (Tyr705) were down-regulated when treated with SHR0302 1.0 μmol/L (P<0.05) , p-jak1 (tyr1022/1023) and p-stat5 (Tyr694) were inhibited at 5.0 μmol/L (P<0.05) . Ruxolitinib significantly inhibited the downstream STAT protein at 0.1 μmol/L. Again, the inhibitory effect of SHR0302 on protein expression was weaker than that of Ruxolitinib. Conclusion SHR0302 can effectively inhibit the proliferation of MPN cell line and patients' primary cells, as well as the expression of inflammatory factors. The molecular mechanism is possibly related to the down-regulation of phosphorylated proteins of Jak-Stat signaling pathway. Overall, the anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory effects of SHR0302 are weaker than those of Ruxolitinib.
