Dendritic cells are the most powerful cells to induce T cell immune reaction. DC derived from leukemia also possess the ability of the antigen processing and presentation. DC pulsed with tumor antigen can effectively initiate T cell immune reaction and induce T cell to cytotoxic T lymphocytes in vitro and in vivo. In this text, we introduce the advanced development of the biological character of DC, tumor immunology, the mechanism of tumor cell escaping immune surveillance and DC in leukemia immunotherapy.

AIM: To test the effect of ethanol precipitation on the purifying technology of chlorogenic acid (CGA). METHODS: Using HPLC, the effect of the extraction of CGA from the crude Flos Lonicerae Japonica powder with three concentrations of ethanol was compared. RESULTS: Ethanol with concentration of 60% was optimal. CGA content was raised from 5.5% to 37.72% by use of ethanol precipitation and extraction in combination. CONCLUSION: The ethanol precipitation can get rid of the impurity in the crude powder of Flos Lonicerae Japonica effectively and the yield of CGA can reach 90.16%.

Objective To construct DNA vaccine expressing Mycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb) immunodominant antigen Ag85A and analyze its anti-tuberculosis T cell responses in BCG primed-mice after DNA vaccination boosting.Methods The coding gene of Ag85A mature fragment was amplified by PCR with H37Rv genomic DNA as template,and then cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pVAX1 to construct Ag85A DNA vaccine.After purification,Ag85A DNA vaccine was injected intramuscularly twice in BCG primed-mice with BCG vaccination and DNA vaccination alone as control.Eight weeks post-vaccination,spleen lymphocytes were separated and were then used to analyze Mtb antigen specific effector T cell response and polyfuntional IFN-γ/TNF-α/IL-2 secreting CD4+ T cell frequencies and intensities,and CD8+T cell responses by IFN-γ ELISPOT assay and intracellular staining,respectively.Results Compared to BCG vaccinated-and DNA vaccinated-mice,Ag85A DNA boosting not only enhanced significantly BCG primed-mice IFN-γ+TNF-α+IL-2+,IFN-γ+ IL-2+,TNF-α+IL-2+ and IL-2+ CD4+ T cell frequencies and IL-2 secretion,but also improved significantly IFN-γ-secreting and IL-2-secreting CD8+ T cell frequencies.Condusion Ag85A DNA vaccine was constructed successfully and was demonstrated to enhance significantly BCG primed-mice Mtb antigen specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses when boosting,which is beneficial to improve BCG immunogenicity and its waning immune protection against Mtb.

Objective To explore the epidemiological features of the metabolic syndrome in a cohort study of Xiangtan Mengkuang in China.Methods The prevalence rate,means and standard deviation of various risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome were analysed on the basis of base-line survey of risk factors of 5792 subjects(aged 25 years-old～) in 2004.Results (1)The prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome was 12.9%(12.4% in males,and 13.7% in females,P

Objective:Clonidine,by activating peripheral α-sbrenoceptors, produces transient pressor response after i.v.injection in anesthetized animals.Moxonidine, with at least 40-fold higher affinity to I1-imidazoline receptors than to α2-adrenoceptors,produces also a transient pressor response. This work was designed to investigate whether I1-imidazoline receptors are involved in this pressor effect of moxonidine. Methods:Female spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHRs,aged 14-16 weeks)were anesthetized with urethane.To observe the transient pressor responses,moxonidine 0.1,0.3,1.0mg/kg(intravenous,i.v),2.0μg(intracerebroventricular,i.c.v.)and 1.0,10.0mg/kg(intragastric,i.g.)were administrated in different groups of rats.To evaluate the roles of α1-adrenoceptors,α2-adrenoceptors and I1-imidazoline receptors in the transient pressor responses to moxonidine, prazosin(10.0μg/kg),yohimbine(2.0mg/kg),phentolamine(0.2mg/kg),idazoxan(1.0mg/kg)or yohimbine+idazoxan(2.0mg/kg+1.0mg/kg)were intravenously given to the animals before moxonidine 0.3mg/kg (i.v.).Results:It was found that i.v.moxonidine produced a greater pressor response than clonidine when producing a similar reduction of blood pressure.This effect of moxonidine was not influenced by prazosin, but was partly inhibited by yohimbine, phentolamine or idazoxan,and completely blocked by the combination of yohimbine and idzaxon.Neither i.c.v.injection nor i.g. administration of moxonidine induced transient pressor responses.Conclusion:The transient pressor response of i.v. moxonidine is mediated by both peripheral I1-imidazoline receptors and α2-adrenoceptors.

Four phthalocyanines (iron tetracarboxylphthalocyanine, copper tetracarboxylphthalocyanine, manganese tetracarboxylphthalocyanine, cobalt tetracarboxylphthalocyanine) were used as dual functional mimic enzymes of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). The first function, eliminating O2－, was proved by using riboflavine-methionine photoreduction method in the concentration range of 10－5 to 10－6 mol/L. The second function, clearing out H2O2, was demonstrated by means of spectrophotometry with the decomposing percentage being increased with the increase of the concentration of the imitating compounds. Measurements of metal phthalocyanines, SOD and CAT by the liver homogenate technique of mice showed that they had obvious action of decreasing the lipid peroxidation.

This study aims at exploring the effects of tensile strain and loading time on the secretion of IL-1 beta of human periodontal ligament fibroblast. Five tensile strain values including 0%, 8%, 12%, 16%, 20% and three loading time including 24 h, 48 h, 72 h are set in this study. The prepared cell samples are mounted on the self-devised loading apparatus in vitro. The content of IL-1 beta in each sample was determined using double-antibody ELISA. The secretion amount of IL-1 beta per day is directly proportional to the loading time and tensile strain value in tensile strain group of 8%, 12%, 16%. The secretion amount of IL-1 beta reaches its maximum at tensile strain value of 16% in loading time groups. Loaded strain for 24 h and 48 h, the secretion amount of IL-1 beta at tensile strain value of 20% is obviously more than that at value of 0%, but the amount already begin to decrease apparently. Loaded strain for 72 h, the secretion amount of IL-1 beta decreases to a great extent that it is less than the amount at strain value of 0%. The tensile strain stimulates the secretion of IL-1 beta by human periodontal ligament fibroblast when the strain is under normal physiological extent, but the stimulation effect fades out as time goes on.

Objective:To investigate the application value of digital X-ray radiotherapy and single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)radionuclide bone imaging in the diagnosis of intertrochanteric fracture of femur.Methods:A total of 70 patients who were diagnosed as intertrochanteric fracture of femur in Shijiazhuang People's hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 were selected,and they were divided into study group and control group according to random number method,with 35 cases in each group.Digital X-ray radiography combined with SPECT radionuclide bone imaging was used in the study group,and digital X-ray radiography was used in the control group.And then,the accuracy of the diagnostic results between the two groups were compared.Results:The radiographic examination indicated that 31 cases(88.6%)of 35 cases in the study group were confirmed,and 24 cases(68.6%)of 35 cases in the control group were confirmed.The diagnostic accuracy rate of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=4.158,P<0.05).The preoperative imaging diagnosis indicated that diagnosed number of fracture blocks in the study group was(3.57±0.50),which was significantly higher than that(2.67±0.40)in the control group,and the difference of that between two groups was statistically significant(t=8.315,P<0.05).In the actual intraoperative examining for bone continuity,5 cases were continuity and 30 cases were non-continuity.In the bone stability,13 cases were stability and 22 cases were non-stability.The study group was closer to intraoperative bone continuity and bone stability,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(x2=12.857,4.644,P<0.05),respectively.Conclusion:The combination of digital X-ray radiography and SPECT radionuclide bone imaging has higher diagnostic value for intertrochanteric fracture of femur,which can provide important reference for clinical diagnosis.
