Objective To investigate the effects of dexamethasone(DEX)on the secretion of interleukin (IL)-17 and interferon(IFN)-γ and the proportion of Th17,Tc17,Th1 ,Tc1 cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE). Methods Thirty hospitalized SLE patients were recruited and twenty-two healthy volunteers were recruited as healthy controls. PBMCs were separated from SLE patients and healthy controls and then was cultured in vitro by medium or PMA/Ionomycin or PMA/Ionomycin +dexamethasone for six hours. Four- color immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric assay were used to analyze the percentage of Th17,Tc17,Th1,Tc1 cells in PBMCs. Concentrations of IL-17 and IFN-γ in plasma and the supernatants of PBMCs which were cultured for 24 hours were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The plasma concentrations of IL-17 and IFN-γwere elevated in SLE patients as compared to the controls(P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed between patients and controls for the spontaneous production of IL-17 and IFN-γ or percentage of T subsets expressed by PBMCs. After the stimulation of PMA,compared with the controls,the level of IL-17 was significantly elevated in the supematants of PBMCs and the percentages of Th17 and Tc1 in SLE patients increased significantly(P < 0. 05). However,there showed no significant differences between SLE patients and the controls for the percentages of Th1 and Tc17 cells. DEX could significantly decrease the production of IL-17(P < 0. 01)and the percentages of Th17,Tc1 cells by the active PBMCs(P < 0. 05). Conclusions There is abnormal expression of T subset cells and their cytokines in vivo of SLE patients. DEX can interfere with immunological pathological process in the cytokine network imbalance of SLE patients and shows powerful inhibition of IL - 17. Our results may provide some laboratory evidence for the clinical application of corticosteroids.

Sleep takes an important role in maintaining typical development, neural plasticity, and language development. Not only poorer performance in memory and cognitive functions, but also obvious delayed language development are seen in children and adolescents with sleep problem. Previous research found that sleep duration affects children and adolescents' ability in comprehensive vocabulary, expressive vocabulary, and vocabulary retention. Children and adolescents with poor sleep quality usually show language developmental delay, however, there is no integrated evaluation tool for sleep and language, and a consistent conclusion is therefore not reached. Daytime naps are beneficial to consolidate vocabulary learning in infants, and it’s also relevant to vocabulary retention and generalization in children and adolescents. Children with sleep related breathing disorders show lower ability in receptive language comprehension and lower lexical level, and with the increase of their age, the severity of their language disorder becomes higher. Besides, sleep can promote language learning in children with neuro-developmental disorder.The neuro-physiological mechanism underlying sleep and language remains unknown, and one of the possible explanations is that sleep problem harms the information processing in frontal lobe and hippocampus, and interferes with neural plasticity. The injury includes memory, attention, executive function, auditory processing, and so on, and finally language development is damaged. Further research is necessary to clarify the relation and mechanism between these two elements, this will be helpful in finding out an effective way to promote language function in children with language retardation and/or combined with neuro-developmental disorder.

Objective To explore the specificity and efficiency of YFP labeled natural killer (NK) cells through Vav-Cre induced YFP reporter system in mice. Methods ROSA26R-YFP and Vav-Cre mice were crossed, and their YFP and Cre gene double positive progeny were screened by genotyping. The specificity of YFP in hematopoietic cells from im-mune organs including lymph nodes, spleen, thymus and bone marrow were analyzed by flow cytometry. The percentages of YFP positive cells in NK cells from lymph nodes, spleen and bone marrow were also analyzed by flow cytometry. Results A total of 11 double positive mice (ROSA26R-YFP-(+/-)VavCre) were obtained in 17 mouse offspring by crossing ROSA26R-YFP mice with Vav-Cre mice. The percentages of YFP positive cells in immune organs including lymph nodes, spleen, thy-mus and bone marrow were 73.87%± 1.51%, 56.07%± 1.47%, 86.17%± 1.74%and 53.60%± 3.56%, and there were signifi-cant differences compared with the corresponding negative control cells(0.27%±0.01%, 1.33%±0.91%, 0.11%±0.01%and 0.29%± 0.03%, P<0.01). There were no YFP expressions in non-immune organs in double positive mice and in negative control mice (0.72%±0.43%vs 0.92%±0.27%, P>0.05). The positive rates of YFP were significantly higher in NK cells in lymph nodes, spleen and bone marrow (76.94%±0.84%、81.66%±1.18%and 88.92%±0.77%) compared with those of control (P<0.01). Conclusion YFP marked NK cells through Vav-Cre induced YFP reporter system in mice have high specificity and efficiency.

Objective To explore the role of GRK5 in sustained β adrenergic receptor (βAR)-stimulated increased levels of oxidative stress.Methods Male SD rats (180-200 g) were separated into 4 groups according to the random principal: control group (CTRL), control with NAC supplement group (CTRL+NAC), ISO treated group (ISO), and ISO treated with NAC supplement group (ISO+NAC), with 6 rats in each group.ISO group was treated by method of intraperitoneal injection for 3 mg/(kg· d).CTRL rats received same volume of physiological saline by same method, while NAC was treated by supplement in drinking water for 15 g/L per day.After 2 weeks of treatment, BP, heart mass index (HMI), histology changes, expression of NOX4 and GRK5 of myocardium was examined.Results HMI of ISO rats was significantly higher than that of the CTRL group [(3.99±0.10 vs 3.31±0.13) mg/g, P<0.05], and the cardio-myocyte cross-sectional area of ISO group was also significantly increased compared with CTRL group [(11 117.00±387.57 vs 4572.23±176.39) μm, P<O.05].ISO+NAC significantly reduced the ISO-induced increases of heart weight index (3.56±0.12 mg/g, vs ISO, P<0.05) and myocyte cross-sectional area (6160.33±141.44 μm2, vs ISO,P<0.05).The immunohistochemistry results showed that the expression of myocardial NOX4 of ISO group was significantly higher than that of CTRL group [(10.59±1.61 vs 4.35±1.65), P<0.05], and NAC reduced the ISO induced NOX4 expression increase [(4.67±1.25 vs 10.59±1.61), P<0.05].Western Blot and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the protein expression of myocardial GRK5.Both results showed that there were no significant differences between ISO and CTRL, ISO+NAC and ISO group (P>0.05).RT-qPCR detected no significant differences of myocardial GRK5 mRNA expression between ISO and CTRL, ISO+NAC and ISO groups (P>0.05).Arterial blood pressure showed no significant difference among the 4 groups of rats (P>0.05).No significant differences were found between rats from CTRL+NAC and CTRL group.Conclusions In the mechanism of sustained βAR-stimulated cardiac hypertrophy, GRK5 may not participate the regulation of hypertrophy-induced factor, and this process needs to be proved in further study.

The results of RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry showed that the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor ( flk-1 ) in the renal cortex of insulin-resistant rats during the phase of normal blood glucose were significantly increased, which were decreased by telmisartan. The result suggests that telmisartan may ease kidney damage via decreasing VEGF and flk-1 expressions.
