Objective To estimate the activity of the phosphatidylinositol3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway in peripheral blood T cells from patients with atopic dermatitis (AD),and to investigate its clinical significance.Methods T cells were isolated by using the Rosettsep T cell purification kit from the peripheral blood of 38 patients with AD and 38 healthy human controls,and classified into several groups to be treated with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody,anti-CD28 monoclonal antibody,and LY294002 (an inhibitor of PI3K) respectively.The activity of PI3K signaling pathway in T cells was estimated by immunoprecipitation and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Western blot was performed to measure the expressions of total Akt and phosphorylated Akt in T cells,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay to examine the proliferation of T cells,and ELISA to determine the levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and IL-10.Results The activity of PI3K and Akt was significantly higher in freshly isolated patient-derived T cells than in control-derived T cells (both P < 0.05).However,the difference in the activity of PI3K and Akt between patient-derived and control-derived T cells disappeared (both P > 0.05) after 24-hour in vitro culture.The activity of PI3K and Akt in control-derived T cells was significantly increased after 24-hour incubation with sera from the patients with AD (both P < 0.05).In addition,compared with patient-derived T cells treated with patients' sera or anti-CD3/CD28 monoclonal antibody alone,those treated with the combination of LY294002 and patients' sera or anti-CD3/CD28 monoclonal antibody showed a significant decrease in the proliferative activity (63% ± 11% vs.123% ± 25%,125% ± 22% vs.195% ± 28%,both P< 0.05),supematant levels of IL-6 ((168 ± 33) vs.(265 ± 46) ng/L,(431 ± 64) vs.(823 ± 128) ng/L,both P< 0.05) and IL-10 ((56 ± 14) vs.(98 ± 25) ng/L,(120 ± 21) vs.(213 ± 35) ng/L,both P< 0.05).Eczema area and severity index (EASI) was unassociated with the activity of PI3K or Akt in fresh T cells from patients with AD (both P > 0.05).Conclusions The PI3K signaling pathway is abnormally activated in peripheral blood T cells from patients with AD,which is associated with the proliferation of,as well as secretion of cytokines by,T cells,suggesting that there exist serum factors activating this pathway in peripheral blood of patients with AD.

Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2009;29(9):783-786
OBJECTIVETo explore the mRNA expressions of IL-10, IL-18 and Fas in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients of various Chinese medicine syndrome types in order to seek the objective indices for syndrome differentiation of SLE.
METHODSSLE patients were sorted into various syndrome types by Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation. In them, patients with the 4 often encountered types were selected, i.e. the qi-xue excessive heat type (Group A, 12 patients), the Pi-Shen yang-deficiency type (Group B, 19 patients), the qi-yin deficiency with blood stasis type (Group C, 23 patients), and the qi stagnation and blood stasis with gan stagnation type (Group D, 28 patients). The mRNA expressions of IL-10, IL-18 and Fas in PBMCs were detected by SYBR Green I real time PCR.
RESULTSThe mRNA expressions of IL-10, IL-18 and Fas in PBMC of all SLE patients (0.40 +/- 0.53, 1.41 +/- 1.93 and 0.33 +/- 0.70) were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (0.07 +/- 0.11, 0.24 +/- 0.25, 0.08 +/- 0.21, P<0.01, P<0.05), their levels in different syndrome types decreased in order of type A-->B-->C-->D. The levels of the three indices in patients of type A and B were obviously higher than those in patients of type C and D (P<0.01), while no significant difference was found between type A and B (P>0.05), and between type C and D (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe mRNA expressions of IL-10, IL-18 and Fas in PBMCs could be taken as the objective indices for reference in syndrome differentiation of SLE.

Objective To evaluate the effect of sevoflurane pretreatment on the inflammatory response during renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Thirty pathogen-free male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 12-14 weeks,weighing 220-260 g,were randomized into 3 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),I/R group and sevoflurane pretreatment group (group SP).Renal I/R was induced by clamping the left renal pedicle for 45 min followed by reperfusion in I/R and SP groups.In group S inhalation of 3% sevoflurane in O2 was started at 30 min before I/R and maintained throughout the experiment.Venous blood samples were taken at 3 h of reperfusion for determination of serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) concentrations.The animals were then sacrificed and the left kidneys were removed for microscopic examination and for measurement of the content of tumor necrosis factor-apha (TNF-α),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in renal tissues (by ELISA).Results Compared with group S,the serum BUN and Cr concentrations,severity of necrosis of renal proximal convoluted tubules (0 =normal,4 =necrosis of whole segment of proximal convoluted tubules),and contents of TNF-α,IL-6 and ICAM-1 were significantly increased in I/R and SP groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group I/R,the serum BUN and Cr concentrations,severity of necrosis of renal proximal convoluted tubules,and contents of TNF-α,IL-6 and ICAM-1 were significantly decreased in SP group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Sevoflurane pretreatment can protect kidney against I/R injury by inhibiting the inflammatory responses in the renal tissues of rats.
