Chinese Journal of Microbiology and Immunology 2016;36(7):519-522
Objective To prepare mouse anti-human monoclonal antibodies against B7-H6 and to identify their biological characteristics. Methods The B7-H6 gene was cloned by RT-PCR from a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line ( A549 ) and then subcloned into the eukaryote expression vector pCMV3 to construct the recombinant vector pCMV3-B7-H6. The recombinant vector pCMV3-B7-H6 that was verified with enzyme digestion and gene sequencing was transfected into NIH/3T3 cells by electroporation. BALB/c mice were immunized with the successfully transfected cells named 2H8 through intraperitoneal injection. The monoclonal antibodies against human B7-H6 with the advantages of high affinity and specificity were pre-pared by using hybridoma technology. Western blot assay and flow cytometry analysis were used to identify the specificity of prepared monoclonal antibodies. Results The recombinant eukaryotic expression vector encoding B7-H6 was successfully constructed. Two hybridoma clones that stably secreted monoclonal anti-bodies against B7-H6 were screened out by using flow cytometry analysis and the monoclonal antibodies se-creted by them were belonged to IgG2a isotype. Specific reactions between B7-H6 and the secreted mono-clonal antibodies were confirmed by Western blot assay and flow cytometry analysis. Conclusion The mon-oclonal antibodies which recognized B7-H6 specifically were prepared successfully.

Objective To investigate the clinical significan ce of pelvic lymphadenectomy in advanced ovarian carcinoma. Methods A total of 86 cases of advanced ovarian cancer with surgical treatment were assigned to 3 groups according to the size of residual focus and the performanc e of pelvic lymphadenectomy. Group A consisted of 42 cases with pelvic lymphaden ectomy and the diameter of residual focus smaller than 2 cm; Group B, 26 cases, underwent pelvic lymphadenectomy but with the residual focus larger than 2 cm; Group C con sisted of 18 cases without pelvic lymphadenectomy and the diameter of residual f ocus larger than 2 cm. All patients received CAP chemotherapy for 6 to 8 course of treatment and were in similar clinical stages and pathological grading. Results The 5 year survival rate was 30.1% (13/42) in Group A, and 11.5% (3/26) in Group B with significant difference (P<0.05). Group C's 5 year survival rate was 11.1%(2/18). No significant difference was found betwee n Group B and C. Conclusion Application of pelvic lymphadenecto my on those with residual focus less than 2 cm can apparently improve the patien ts' survival rate. But when the diameter of the focus is larger than 2 cm, pelvi c lymphadenectomy is not necessary.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a noninfectious inflammatory response in nasal mucosa caused by allergens, which is contacted by a specific individual. The immune imbalance of Th1/Th2 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AR. In?terleukin (IL)-33, the novel cytokine of IL-1 family, is an important regulatory factor of allergic diseases, autoimmune diseas?es and various inflammatory diseases. IL-33 is a kind of alarm, which is mainly secreted and released by damaged tissues and cells, especially impaired epithelial cells and endothelial cells. IL-33 binding to its receptor ST2L can activate a variety of immune cells to produce Th2 cytokines, precipitating and maintaining Th2 polarization, increasing AR immune inflamma?tion, which is the new target of AR in research and treatment. In this article, we have done a brief overview for the biological functions of IL-33 and its receptor ST2L and the research progress in the AR.

Objective To investigate the possibility of plastic and cosmetic operation incorporating epicanthoplasty with the double-eyelid procedure in one stage to achieve a more subtle scar in epicanthus patients with single eyelid. Methods After designing incision line of the epicanthic flap, double-eyelid line and the lower eyelid incision curved line, we cut the medial canthus skin transversely to reach a new medial canthus point, incised the part of front angle of medial palpebral ligamentum longitudinally and fixed the end point of front angle of medial palpebral ligamentum to nasal dorsum fascia firmly. Double eyelid operation was routinely performed to remove redundant small triangle skin as well as some patchy of orbicularis on the new medial canthus point. Along with eyelid edge about 1 to 2 mm to eyelash, the temporal side was cut with curved line till its disappearance by eyelid's "cat ear". The lower eyelid flap was separated downward and the superfluous flap and some patchy of orbicularis cut. The skin was su-tured to make postoperative scar hidden, blepharophimosis increased and the fold disappeared. Results 46 eyes (23 cases) were operated and satisfactory aesthetic results were obtained. Palpebral fissure was enlarged to 2 to 4 mm with epicanthic scar disappearance and formation of double-eyelid. Conclusions This is a simple and effective procedure with hidden epicanthic scar and the double-eyelid blepharoplasty could be performed simultaneously. Most patients receive satisfactory results during the 0.5 to 2 years' follow-up period except 2 cases with mild proliferation of epicanthus in half a year. It is especially suitable to correct the severe epicanthus palpebralis or epieanthus tarsalis.
