The high mortality of paraquat (PQ) poisonings is mainly due to the lack of effective treatments. The optimal method of extracorporeal removal of paraquat is often a matter of debate. Due to the lack of well-designed studies, we are often left with circumstantial evidence, and we must exercise our best clinical judgment as to whether extracorporeal paraquat removal is beneficial and if so, by what method. It is clear, however, that rapidity in paraquat removal is beneficial. Due to the urgent nature of treatment for paraquat poisoning, there may never be well-designed evidence-based studies to help guide us. In the meantime, we must continue to use less than ideal evidence and our own experience to guide our decision-making process. Most toxicologists recommend rapid initiation of charcoal haemoperfusion (CHP) to lower plasma PQ levels and to limit pulmonary and other organs uptake of PQ.

BACKGROUND:Clinical infusion of hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells for treatment of aplastic anemia has been reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stems cells on the secretion function of T lymphocytes of aplastic anemia patients. METHODS:Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stems cells were extracted from healthy human adipose tissues. T-lymphocytes were harvested from peripheral blood of patients with aplastic anemia by density gradient centrifugation. Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stems cells were co-cultured with T-lymphocytes. The levels of interleukin-2, interleukin-4, interleukin-10 and interferon-γwere detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. T-bet and GATA-3 levels were examined by real-time PCR and western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The levels of Th1 type cytokines interferon-γand interleukin-2 in the co-culture group were significantly lower than those in the T-lymphocyte group (P<0.05). But the levels of Th2 type cytokines interleukin-4 and interleukin-10 in the co-culture group were significantly higher than those in the T-lymphocyte group (P<0.05). The T-bet mRNA and protein levels in the co-culture group were significantly lower than those in the T-lymphocyte group, while the GATA-3 mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in the co-culture group. Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stems cells can mediate an immunoregulation effect on T-lymphocytes of aplastic anemia patients in vitro, which is possibly related with the inhibition of Th1-dominant response due to the disorder of T-bet and GATA-3 gene expression.
