HIV /AIDS related lymphoma (ARL)are a group of heterogeneity of neoplasms,and they have poor prognosis.The factors of pathogenesis elucidated in recent years include immune injury caused by HIV,EB virus infection and genetic changes.There are four pathological types of ARL,including diffuse large B cell lymphoma,Burkitt lymphoma,plasmablastic lymphoma and primary effusion lymphoma.Morphological characteristics,immunophenotype markers and clinical data should be combined to make diagnosis and differen-tial diagnosis,which will facilitate timely treatment and improve prognosis.

Objective To investigate the chemical constituents of Polygala fallax.Methods The chemical constituents were isolated and purified via silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography as well as recrystallization.Their structures were determined on the basis of spectral analysis and physicochemical properties.Results Six compounds were isolated and identified as 3-O?-D-glucopyranosyl senegenic acid(Ⅰ),tenuifolin(Ⅱ),presenegenin(Ⅲ),1,7-dimethoxy-2,3-methylenedioxy xanthone(Ⅳ),sinapinic acid(Ⅴ),ferulic acid(Ⅵ).Conclusion Compounds Ⅲ—Ⅵ are isolated from P.fallax for the first time.Compound Ⅰ is a new triterpenoid saponin,named fallaxsaponin A.

Objective To investigate the changes of Tc1/Tc2 profiles and the cytotoxic function of CD8~+ cells in ovarian cancer patients undergoing paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy, so as to identify whether there is a "window period" of anti-tumor immune suppression reverse after chemotherapy. Methods Blood samples from each ovarian cancer patient were obtained before (S_0) and at day 5-7 (S_1), day 12-14 (S_2) and day 25-28 (S_3) after chemotherapy in 13 patients. Thirteen age-matched healthy female volunteers were enrolled as a control group. Flow cytometry technique was employed to analyze the proportion of Tc1/Tc2. The numbers of specific IFN-γ, secreting CD8~+ cells were also calculated after peripheral lymphocytes had been stimulated with self tumor lysates. Results The proportion of Tel in CD8~+ cells increased re-markably on S2 while the proportion of Tc2 in CD8~+ cells remained no significant changes after chemothera-py. The ratio of Tc1 to Tc2 cells reached the highest on S_2. IFN-γ/secreting CD8~+ T cells also increased re-markably on S_2, especially when CD8~+ T cells were stimulated with autologous tumor antigen. Conclusion Paclitaxel and carboplatin induce the changes of Tc1/Tc2 profile and augment anti-tumor immune response by immune reconstitution. It probably turns out that the "window period" during immune reconstitution offers a best opportunity for cancer immunotherapy.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the dynamic changes in the numbers and functions of CD8~+T cells and NK cells in patients with advanced ovarian cancer undergoing first line chemotherapy,so as to identify whether there was a "window period" of anti-tumor immune suppression reverse after chemotherapy.Methods: Peripheral blood samples from each ovarian cancer patient were obtained before (S_0) and at day 5-7 (S_1),day 12-14 (S_2) and day 25-28 (S_3) after Chemotherapy in 13 patients.The numbers and proportions of CD3~+,CD4~+,CD8~+ and nature killer (NK) cells were analyzed by flow cytometry technique.The percentages of specific IFN-γ-secreting CD8~+ cells were also calculated after that peripheral lymphocytes had been stimulated with self tumor lysates.Cytotoxicity of NK cells against K562 cells was detected by LDH releasing assay.Results: The numbers of CD3~+,CD4~+,CD8~+T cells and NK cells reduced to the lowest on S1.Compared to those of the control group,and the percentages of IFN-γ-secreting CD8~+T cells were remarkably higher on S_1,S_2 and S_3 when CD8~+T cells were stimulated with autologous tumor antigen,and the percentage of CD8~+IFN-γ~+ cell reached the highest on S2.No significant differences of NK cell cytotoxicity against K562 cells were found on S_1,S_2 and S_3 compared to S0.Conclusion: Paclitaxel and carboplatin induce lymphopenia,which triggers the temporary immune reconstitution.During immune reconstitution the enhanced priming of CD8~+T cell response by autologons tumor antigen is found while the function of NK cells does not change significantly.It probably turns out that the" window period"during immune reconstitution offers a best opportunity for cancer immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the changes of interleukin-17A(IL-17A)and interleukin-22(IL-22)in the lung of cigarette smoke exposed mice and the effect of smoking cessation and N -acetylcysteine (NAC )treatment . Methods BALB /c mice in experimental groups were exposed to cigarette smoke.Then the smoke-exposure was stopped and mice were treated with NAC gavage.The mice were executed 1,2,and 3 months after smoking cessa-tion.Lung tissue sample and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were collected.HE staining was used to observe the pathologic changes of the lung and ELISA was used to measure the level of IL-17A and IL-22.Results Con-siderable emphysematous changes was found in the lung of mice exposed to cigarette smoke.Compared with the controls,the level of IL-17A and IL-22 elevated remarkably in pulmonary tissue and BALF after smoking exposure and declined gradually after smoking cessation.Additional NAC gavage treatment enhanced the decline tendency. Conclusion IL-17A and IL-22 might play a complex role in the chronic inflammatory changes of lung in mice ex-posed to cigarette smoke.

Objective To explore the effects of human papilloma(HPV) infection status on the DNA ploidy of cervical epi-thelial cells in Uygur and Han women .Methods Totally 348 women collected who initially received treatment in Tumor Hospital Affiliated to Xinjiang Medical University from July 2012 to June 2014 ,including 181 cases of Uygur and 167 cases of Han women .

Conclusion Single high-risk type HPV infection and mixed high-risk HPV infection had different impact on cervical lesions be-tween Han and Uygur women .It was necessary to respectively study the correlation between cervical lesions and HPV infection for each ethnic groups .

Objective:Our purpose was to establish an ideal chronic pressure-afterload heart failure rat model which has the transition from cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure. Methods: Chronic pressure-afterload heart failure rat model was induced by gradually constricting the ascending aorta of young rats. Young rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: the constricted and sham-operated groups. Clinical manifestation, tail-cuff blood pressure, organ weight, and hemodynamic data were observed at various time after operation. Results: The overall survival rate was 87%. Tail-cuff pressure began to increase in 4 weeks after operation. Left ventricular hypertrophy appeared in 12 weeks and heart failure in 5 months. Conclusion:It's a practical and reproducible model of cardiac hypertrophy that progresses to chronic heart failure.

AIM: We investigated the numbers and proportions of lymphocyte subsets in advanced ovarian cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, so as to identify whether there is immune reconstitution after chemotherapy, and seek rational chemo-immunotherapy strategies in ovarian cancer treatment. METHODS: Blood samples from each ovarian cancer patient were obtained before (S_0) and at day 5-7 (S_1), day 12-14 (S_2) and day 25-28 (S_3) after chemotherapy in 13 patients. Flow cytometry technique was employed to analyse the numbers, proportions of CD3~+, CD4~+, CD8~+, CD4~+CD25~+ Treg and memory-like phenotype lymphocyte subsets. RESULTS: Lymphopenia was observed at S1 after chemotherapy, but lymphocytes were found gradually recovered after S1. The numbers of CD3~+, CD4~+, CD8~+T cells and CD4~+CD25~+ Treg cells reduced to the lowest on S_1. The proportions of CD8~+ T cells and CD4~+CD25~+ Treg cells reduced to the lowest on S_1 and S_2 respectively. The proportions of CD45RO~+ memory T cells increased significantly on S2 while the proportion of CD8~+CD45RA~+ T cells decreased remarkably on S_2. CONCLUSION: Paclitaxel and carboplatin induce lymphopenia at day 5-7 after chemotherapy, then comes the temporary immune reconstitution. It probably turns out that the window period during immune reconstitution offers a best opportunity for cancer immunotherapy.
