Chinese Journal of Immunology 2001;0(07):-
Objective:To investigate the capability of corneal cells to stimulate lymphocyte proliferation and the expression of costimulatory molecules on primary human corneal epithelial cells.Methods:Human corneal epithelial cells were cocultivated with peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC). Expression of HLA class Ⅱ antigens, CD40, CD154, CD80 and CD86 was measured by immunohistochemical staining,and the expression of such molecules above on rejected corneal grafts was contrastingly assessed. Activation of lymphocytes was determined by measuring upregulation of CD69 by FACS analysis.Results:HLAⅡ expression was detectable on human primary corneal epithelial cells,and furthermore, upregualtion of costimulatory molecules CD40 and CD80 were also found after induction with ?-interferon. Both of HLA and CD40 were expressed on rejected corneal grafts. T lymphocytes were activated by epithelial cells in the coculture system.Conclusion:Human corneal epithelial cells are involved in rejection process of the corneal transplantation. The immunological reaction is triggered by epithelial cells,and endothelial cells suffer as the targets.

Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2008;24(5):355-358
Objective To investigate the expression of Human leucocyte antigen(HLA)-DP,-DQ,-DR and CD40 in human retinal pigment epithelial(RPE)cells,to determine their molecule expression in immune response process,and their abilities to stimulate T lymphocyte activation. Methods Human RPE cells were cultured with or without(-IFN respectively.Expression of HLA-DP,-DQ,-DR and CD40 was measured by immunohistochemical staining.Meanwhile,peripheral blood mononuelear cells(PBMC)were co-cultured with RPE cells in vitro,and then the expression of activated lymphocytes CD69 was measured by fluorescence activated eell sorter(FACS). Results Expression of HLA-DP,-DQ,-DR and CD40 antigen were enhanced by γ-interferon inducement.Increasing amount of CD69 positive Iymphocytes were found in the co-culture system of RPE cells and PBMC. Conclusion T-lymphocytes in the peripheral blood were activated by human RPE cells which is antigen presenting cells with immunological characteristics potential.

Objective To study the treatment and control status of patients with diabetes in urban communities in our country. Method structured questionnaire survey with physical examination were conducted by well-trained investigator, the participants were patient with diabetes diagnosed at least one year ago in four communities from four cities of China. Result 1047 adults with diabetes were investigated, predominantly type 2 diabetes. 50.9% of participants had hypertension, 32.7% of participants had hyperlipidemia. 70.8% of patients were treated with oral medication alone, 10.2% with insulin alone, 6.3% with oral medication plus insulin, and 9.8% without any medication. So, total about 16.5% of patients were treated with insulin. The well-performed proportion of medication, diet, physical activity, self-management education and blood sugar monitoring were 81.2%, 69.4%, 80.6%, 69.8% and 66.9%, respectively. Participants who well-practised all the five treatment strategies accounted for 34.9% of all participants. Out of all participants, 63% participants had poor FBG control and 50% had poor BP control. Conclusion Most patients with diabetes in urban community receive nonstandard treatment and most of them had poor FBG control and BP control.

Objective To explore the clinical curative effects of hip replacement in the treatment of femoral neck fracture and femoral head necrosis in elderly patients and the existing problems.Methods A total of seventy-five aged patients with femoral neck fracture or femoral head necrosis who were treated by hip replacement were selected as study objects.They were divided into fracture group and femoral head necrosis group according to disease type,all the patients were treated with hip replacement.The surgical time,intraoperative blood transfusion volume,length of hospital stay,in-bed time,perioperative complications and postoperative complications were observed and recorded.The Harris score was used to evaluate hip function of preoperation and postoperation.Results All patients were followed up for 6 ~ 24 months,no incision infection and severe perioperative complications.The volume of intraoperative blood loss,operation time,hospitalization time,in-bed time of the fracture group were (334.9 ± 90.4) mL,(91.7 ± 14.3) min,(19.5 ± 7.5) d,(5.9 ± 1.6) d,respectvely,which of the femoral head necrosis group were (362.9 ± 71.5) mL,(93.5 ± 7.8) min,(20.5 ± 4.2) d,(6.3 ± 1.4) d,respectvely,the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05).At the end of the follow-up,the Harris scores of the two groups were higher than before operation,and the score of the fracture group (89.0 ± 7.4) points was significantly higher than (84.0 ± 9.2) points of the femoral head necrosis group (t =19.639,P < 0.05).In the fracture group,1 year after surgery,1 patient appeared delayed fracture healing,2 cases with postoperative pain when walking the affected area.In the femoral head necrosis group,1 case with femoral nerve injury,1 case of death due to its original diseases,1 case of postoperative sore pain when walking,the two groups had no prosthesis loosening or dislocation phenomenon.Conclusion Hip replacement in the treatment of femoral neck fracture and femoral head necrosis in elderly patients can be used as a clinical treatment option with short in-bed time,less intraoperative blood loss,short operation time,less perioperative complication and good treatment effect,and it is worth to be promoted.

Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS, OMIM 154500), also known as Franceschetti-Klein syndrome, is a rare disorder that affects the first and second branchial arches. The estimated incidence is 1/50 000 live births. Mutations in TCOF1 (78%-93%) and POLR1C or POLR1D (8%) cause the disease. Most of TCS cases are inherited in a dominant pattern, while a small proportion are inherited in a recessive pattern. TCS has a variable phenotype with typical clinical characteristics including downward-slant of palpebral fissure, malar hypoplasia, mandibular hypoplasia and microtia. TCS management is a multidisciplinary affair, as interventions range from reconstructive to psychosocial. For hearing rehabilitation, TCS patients may have the choices of BAHA, ponto, vibrant soundbridge or bonebridge implantation. In this review, we summarize the TCS clinical malformations, diagnosis, genetics, management and auditory rehabilitation.

9.Applications of magnetic resonance imaging in radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(2):127-130
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)has apparent dominance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) diagnosis,staging,the plan of radiotherapy target and assessment of efficacy because of its high-contrast of parenchyma and muli-parameters imaging.Especially diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) developed in several years,it can provide qualitative and quantitative information at the cellular level about tumor cellularity and the integrity of cell membranes,which is valuable for tumor detection,cervical lymph nodes metastases,systemic transfer,monitoring and predicting the treatment response of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
10.The relation between plasma homocysteine level and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Chinese Journal of Internal Medicine 2012;51(4):308-310
Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma level of homocysteine (Hcy) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).Methods The differences of Hcy,Vitamin B12,and folate levels between 150 outpatients with ALS and 137 age and sex matched controls were compared in a cross-sectional study.Results Compared with the healthy controls,patients with ALS had a higher plasma Hcy level [ ( 18.47 ± 13.09) μmol/L vs ( 11.91 ± 5.37 ) μmol/L,P < 0.001 ] and a lower folate level [ ( 8.39 ±4.45) ng/ml vs (10.38 ±5.01) ng/ml,P <0.001].In a logistic regression model using ALS as a dependent variable,plasma level of Hcy was significantly associated with ALS.A trend for higher Hcy levels in patients with shorter interval from symptom onset to diagnosis ( ODI ) was also found [ Hcy levels (20.73 ± 15.79 ) μmol/L with ODI < 19 months vs ( 16.41 ± 9.73 ) μmol/L with ODI ≥ 19 months,P =0.035 ].Conclusions Plasma Hcy level is significantly increased in patients with ALS.The individuals with shorter time to diagnosis present higher Hcy level,suggesting that it may associate with the progression pace of ALS.
