Objective To study the killing effects of the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) KIR2DS1-positive natural killer (NK) cells against leukemia cells.Methods High-purified NK cells separated by RosetteSep NK cell enrichment kit from healthy donor peripheral blood were taken as effector cells,and the freshly isolated bone marrow mononuclear cells from newly diagnosed acute myelogeneous leukemia (AML) patients were taken as target cells.The cytotoxic activity of NK cells were detected by CCK8 kit assay.HLA-Cw,KIR gene of the healthy donors and patients were detected by polymerase chain reaction and sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) genotyping techniques,respectively.NK cells were divided into KIR2DS1-positive group and KIR2DS1-negevitive group,and then anti-KIR2DS1 mononuclear antibody was used to block KIR2DS1 of NK cells.Meanwhile based on HLA-Cw,KIR2DS1-positive NK cells and target cells were divided into C1 homozygote group(expressing HLA-Cw 01,03,07,08,12,14,16 alleles),C2 homozygote group (expressing HLA-Cw 02,04,05,06,15,17,18 alleles) and the C1/C2 heterozygote group (co-expressing the alleles in C1 group and C2 group).Results The purity of NK cells was (91.2±5.94) % through flow cytometry analysis.At the same effector-target ratio,cytotoxicity of KIR2DS1-positive NK cells against target cells was higher than that of KIR2DS1-negetive NK cells.While the E:T =10:1,cytotoxicity of KIR2DS1-positive NK cells against target cells [(2.82±6.81) %] was significant higher than that of KIR2DS1-negetive NK cells [(28.61±5.14) %] against target cells.The killing effects of KIR2DS1-positive NK cells was significantly weakened after KIR2DS1 blockaded with specific antibody (t =-3.00,P =0.05).When focusing on the C1 group NK cells,KIR2DS1-positive NK cells against C2 group [(4.39±3.46) %] target cells was significantly higher than than against C1 group [(41.22±3.68) %] (t =8.33,P < 0.05) and C1/C2 group [(41.32±5.09) %] (t =6.37,P < 0.05) target cells.Conclusions The killing effects of KIR2DS1-positive NK cells are significantly higher than that of KIR2DS1-negetive NK cells.The HLA-C1 group KIR2DS1-positive NK cells could recognize HLA-C2 loci and then kill the target cells.

OBJECTIVE: To study the influence factors of the oxidation of DHA and EPA,and to find effective antioxidants.METHODS: The oxidation of DHA and EPA was optimized by orthogonal test with the quality of DHA and EPA as indicators and temperature,light and time as factors.The optimized antioxidants were selected by adding salidroside,BHA,BHT,vitamin E into samples.RESULTS: If there is lower temperature,weaker light and shorter storage,the oxidation of DHA and EPA will be more slowly.Effect of salidroside on the oxidation of DHA and EPA is the strongest.CONCLUSION: The oxidation of DHA and EPA can be reduced by lowering temperature,storing in dark place,reducing storage duration and adding salidroside.

AIM:To construct eukaryotic expression vector of Sirt2 and detect its expression in HEK293 cells. METHODS: Total RNA was isolated from brain tissue of a-dult SD rat. A 1 130 bp fragment containing the coding region of Sirt2 was amplified by RT-PCR and the resulting PCR product was subcloned into PMD20-T vector and se-quenced. Coding region of Sirt2 was generated with PCR by using the PMD20-T-Sirt2 as template, the amplified PCR fragment was inserted into the EcoR I and Hind Ⅲ sites of the pcDNA3. 1myc-his(-)A expression vector, and the sequence was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The expression of new construct pcDNA3.1 myc-his(-) A-Sirt2 in HEK293 cells was detected by immunofluorescence. RESULTS: The full length coding region of Sirt2 was obtained and confirmed by sequencing, the expression of Sirt2 was detected successfully in HEK293 cells.

Objective To assess the antimicrobial resistance and resistance-related mutations in rpoB and katG genes in Mycobacteria tuberculosis isolates from patients with cutaneous tuberculosis. Methods Seven strains of Mycobacteria were isolated from lesions or secretions of patients with cutaneous tuberculosis and identified as M. tuberculosis. Proportion method was used to test the susceptibility of M. tuberculosis isolates to rifampicin, isoniazid, streptomycin and ethambutol. PCR and sequencing were performed to analyze the mutations in rpoB and katG genes. Results Of the 7 isolates of M. tuberculosis, 1 was resistant to rifampicin,isoniazid and ethambutol simultaneously, and the other 6 were sensitive to rifampicin, isoniazid, streptomycin and ethambutol. All the 7 isolates were positive for the amplification of rpoB and katG genes by PCR. DNA sequencing revealed two mutations at codon 531 (TCG to TTG) and codon 315 (AGC to ACC) in the multi-drug resistant strain, which were absent in the other 6 strains. Conclusion Multi-drug resistance has emerged in M. tuberculosis isolates from patients with cutaneous tuberculosis, which is likely to be related to improper treatment.

This research was aimed to find the skin irritation and burns treatment effect of wound dressing with mi- crospheres containing levofloxacin. We used reference GB/T16886. 10-2005 to evaluate the dressing skin irritation. We prepared rabbit models divided into three groups. The control group was rapped with Vaseline gauze bandage, while the positive control group was rapped with the wounds of nano-silver paste bandage. The experimental sample group was rapped with wound dressing with microspheres containing levofloxacin. We measured the wound without healing area and the hydroxyproline content at the ends of 3 d, 6 d, 9 d, 14 d, 21 d, 28 d. and meanwhile performed histopathological examination. The experimental results showed that the dressing primary irritation index was 0. The nonhealing wound area of theexperimental sample group and positive control group at the ends of 6 d, 9 d, 14 d, 21 d were less than that of the control group (P<0. 05). The nonhealing wound area of the experimental sample group at the ends of 9 d and 14 d was significantly lower than that of the positive control group (P < 0.05). The hydroxyproline content of the experimental sample group at the ends of 6 d, 9 d and 14 d was significantly higher than that of the positive control group and blank control group (P<0. 05). The pathology observed of the experimental sample group at 21 d were the earliest appendages. The wound dressing with microspheres containing levofloxacin has minimal skin irritation, effectively promote wound healing of burn.
