AIM To probe into antitumor effect of lymphocyte activated by superantigen SEC against glioma. METHODS Lymphocyte subset was analysed with APAAP method after the lymphocyte had been activated by SEC. The cytotoxicity of lymphocyte against glioma in vitro was evaluated by MTT method. With established animal model of glioma xenografted and immunity embeded model of HuPBL-SCID, we observed the growth of glioma. RESULTS The lymphocyte activated was mainly composed of CD4 + T lymphocyte. Lymphocyte activated by SEC had killing activety against 8 glioma cells and the group of 1?10 3 U?L -1 had shown the strongest killing power. The growth curve showed that:each of the rate of producing A, C and B group different suppress effect on glioma its suppress rate was 58.5%,46.2% and 36.3% respectively. CONCLUSION Lymphocyte stimulated by superantigen SEC produces killing power against glioma.

Methods Seventy Kunming mice were divided into blank group, model group, pos itive control group, Zih eche low and high dosage groups, and pigplacenta low and high dosage grou ps, wi th 10 in each. The senile dementia models were established with the D-Galactose subcutaneous injection. The blank group was not administered any medicines. The model group was prescribed normal saline instead of the tested medicine; the pos itive control group was given Naofukang by gavage; the Zih eche low and high dosage groups were given 2g/kg and 4g/kg Ziheche respectivel y by gavage; while the pigplacenta low and high dosage groups were treated wi th p igplacenta 4g/kg and 8g/kg respectively by gavage. After treatment for 6 week s, the behavior experimental dark-avoiding test and step-down test were applied to test the effect of the medicines on the learning memory of mice, and acetylchol inesterase and monoamine levels in brain tissues. Results There was no s ignificant difference between the effect of pigplacenta and Ziheche in resi stin g senile dementia. In the latency of dark-avoiding test, the effect of high d osa ge of pigplacenta was significantly better than that of Ziheche (P

Objective To explore the feasibility of using the modified continuous balloon dilatation substituting the traditional membrane-covered stent in the treatment of benign esophageal stenosis in children.Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 25 cases with esophageal stenosis from January,2012 to February,2014 was conducted.Preoperative esophageal stenosis was confirmed by angiography,and the expansion of the stenosis segment was examined after 2-4 weeks postoperatively.According to the age and the location of the esophageal stricture,25 cases were classified into two groups.Twelve cases of group A without obvious contraindications were treated by continuous balloon dilatation,while 13 cases of group B with age of less than 3 years or upper esophageal stenosis,retrievable stent implantation was performed.All cases were followed up from 6 months to 2 years.Clinical symptoms,swallowing fluency and the degree of esophageal stricture were followed up at 1,3,and 6 months postoperatively,and the effect of treatment was evaluated.Results Two groups of patients were successfully treated,and the stents were removed successfully after 2-4 weeks.The average diameter of the stenosiswas significantly increased after treatment,swallowing was improved obviously,with no perforation,hematemesis and melena and other serious complications.The balloon moved down happened in one case,which was adjusted under perspective observation.One case in group A underwent colonic interposition for esophageal replacement because of recurrence of restenosis.The balloon dilatation was effective in 10 cases.In Group B,5 patients had stent migration or displacement,3 cases had recurrent esophageal stricture,and the treatment was effective in 5 cases.There was significant difference in complications between the group A and B (x2=5.23,P<0.05).Conelusions Continuous balloon dilatation is a simple,effective procedure with fewer complications in the treatment of children with benign esophageal stenosis.In addition to stenting,it may be another ideal choice for benign esophageal stenosis in children.

Objective: To explore the relationship of plasma apelin and angiotensin II (Ang II) with hypertension and hypertension caused early renal damage in order to provide the information for hypertension treatment. Methods: A total of 671 participants were enrolled in this cross-sectional community investigation. All participants were above 30 years of age with local residency longer than 5 years and were divided into 2 groups: Control group,n=354 non-hypertension subjects and Hypertension group,n=317 patients with essential hypertension. The levels of apelin, Ang II, urine creatinine and urinary albumin were examined. The relationship between blood pressure and the ratio of urinary albumin to urine creatinine (UACR) and the relationship between blood pressure and apelin, Ang II were studied by Pearson correlation analysis and multi linear regression analysis. Results: Compared with Control group, Hypertension group had the lower levels of apelin and higher UACR, both P<0.01. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) was negatively related to Ln (apelin), positively related to Ln (Ang II), bothP<0.01. With adjusted gender, age and blood lipids, the above relationship still existed. In Hypertension group, the patients combining with the early renal damage had the lower level of apelin and higher level of Ang II, bothP<0.01. The relevant analysis indicated that Ln (UACR) was negatively related to Ln (apelin), positively related to Ln (Ang II), bothP<0.01. With adjusted gender, age, MAP and blood lipids, the above relationship still existed. Conclusion: The patients with hypertension or hypertension caused early renal damage have decreased apelin. Apelin is negatively related to Ang II, therefore, apelin might be used as a target for hypertension treatment in clinical practice.

Objective To systematically review the clinical efficacy of sling exercise therapy(SET)on patients with chronic non-specif-ic low back pain (CNLBP). Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCT) about SET for CNLBP were electronically searched in CNKI, VIP,Wanfang Data,PubMed,Web of Science,The Cochrane Library and Embase from June,2007 to June,2017.After literatures screening, data extraction,quality evaluation and risk assessment,the results of meta-analysis were conducted by RevMan 5.3 software.Results Final-ly, 15 RCTs involving 789 patients were included. SET was better in improving Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score (MD=-1.15, 95% CI[-1.41,-0.90],Z=8.82,P<0.00001)and Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index(ODI)score(MD=-1.29,95%CI[-1.80,-0.78],Z=4.94, P<0.00001) than physical therapy, and was better than other exercise therapies in improving the VAS score (MD=-0.94, 95% CI[-1.52,-0.37],Z=3.21,P=0.001)and ODI score(MD=-5.96,95%CI[-9.41,-2.51],Z=3.38,P=0.0007).However,no significant dif-ference was found in improving the NPRS score between SET and other exercise therapies(MD=0.35,95%CI[-0.23,0.93],Z=1.19,P=0.23),nor in improving VAS score between SET and traditional Chinese medical therapies(MD=-5.29,95%CI[-20.27,9.70],Z=0.69,P=0.49).Conclusion SET may play a role in relieving pain and functional limitations in patients with CNLBP.Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies,larger scale and high quality RCTs are needed to verify the aforementioned conclusion.

Objective To establish an experimental model for the study of α-particle-induced bystander effect of DNA damage and investigate the characteristics of bystander DNA double-strand break (DSB).Methods The red fluorescence fusion protein of HsBrkl-RFP was used to mark the cytoplasm of one cell line to distinguish the irradiated target cells (HFS-RFP) and the non-irradiated bystander cells (HFS) in the co-culture cellular model.After α-particle irradiation,cellular DSB and its repair kinetics were analyzed by the immunofluorescence staining of γH2AX and laser confocal microscope observation.Results A bystander studying model was established by co-culturing human HFS-RFP cells with its partner HSF cells.After 0.1 Gy or 0.2 Gy α-particle irradiation,the similar kinetics of γH2AX foci production and abatement were observed in both irradiated HFS-RFP cells and non-irradiated bystander HFS cells,in which the highest level of γH2AX foci was detected at 1 h post-irradiation.The second peak of γH2AX foci formation appeared at 8 h post-irradiation,which possibly indicates the occurrence of secondary DSB.However,the production of secondary DSB in the bystander cells was weaker than that in the irradiated cells.Conclusions The cell co-culture model can be used for bystander effect investigation.Bystander DSB can be effectively induce by irradiation and the secondary breakage of DNA DSB in the bystander cells may relative to the consequential biochemical processing of clustered DNA damage.
