Objective:To examine whether the existence of the donor-and-recipient-derived DNA chimerism in recipient’s plasma can be a predictive marker for the status of transplanted organ.Methods:One hundred and twenty-six female patients who had been transplanted with male kidney were enrolled in the present study.In these female recipients,the SRY1,DYZ11st and DYZ12nd genes on the Y chromosome from the plasma were prospectively examined using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results:SRY1,DYZ11st and DYZ12nd sequences were detected in the cell-free blood (plasma) of 97 (77%) of 126 female patients with male kidney.The average time-span when the transplanted kidneys functioned was 8.7 years and 5.4 years among microchimerism-positive and microchimerism-negative recipients,respectively.The frequency of the patients who had acute rejection after renal transplantation was approximately 10% and 28%in microchimerism-positive and microchimerism-negative recipients,respectively.Serum creatinine levels in microchimerism-positive patients were significantly lower than those in microchimerism-negative patients.Conclusion:These results suggest that plasma DNA microchimerism is present in certain patients following renal transplantation and measurement of plasma DNA microchimerism using quantitative RT-PCR might be a useful predictor for the acceptance of transplanted kidneys.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of endothelin antagonist on ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced pigmentation in guinea pigs.Methods A skin pigmentation model was established by UVB irradiation in guinea pigs.The modeled animals were divided into 3 groups to be treated with sodium chloride physiological solution (blank control group),an endothelin antagonist (endothelin antagonist group) and arbutin (positive control group),respectively.Before the UVB irradiation,as well as after 15-and 30-day UVB irradiation,Mexameter(R) MX 18 was used to detect the melanin index in the dorsal skin of guinea pigs.After 30-day consecutive treatment,melanin index,the number of melanocytes in the epidermis and melanin content were compared among the above 3 groups.Results After 30-day UVB irradiation,the melanin index in the 9 UVB-irradiated areas on the dorsal skin of guinea pigs significantly increased compared with that before the radiation (P < 0.0001).After 30-day treatment with the 1‰ endothelin antagonist,the melanin index in the UVB-irradiated areas significantly decreased compared with that in the positive control group (P < 0.0001).Melanin content index-1 (MCI-1) was significantly lower in the endothelin antagonist group than in the blank control group (P < 0.05),while no significant difference in MCI-2 was observed among the 3 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Topical application of the endothelin antagonist has a certain therapeutic effect on UVB-induced pigmentation in guinea pigs.

Objective:To study the effect of anti CD3 monoclonal antibody on preventing acute rejection episodes after renal transplantation.Methods:42 patients undergoing renal transplantation were treated with anti CD3 monoclonal antibody (5 mg) daily for a mean of 10 days (treated group).122 patients who were not treated with anti CD3 monoclonal antibody (control group).Acute rejection episodes,graft loss,death and rate of CMV infection in patients were observed.Results:The treated group had a significantly reduced risk of acute rejection (18 6%),as compared with the control group (28 7%).The rate of graft loss were significantly reduced in the treated group 1 year,2 years,or 3 years after renal transplantation.There were no significant differences in mortality between treated group and control group 1 year,2 years,or 3 years after renal transplantation.The incidence rate of CMV infection were significantly increased in the treated group (33 3%),as compared with the control group (13 9%).The first acute rejection episode was postponed significantly in the treated group.There were more acute rejection episodes that could be reversed by MP in the treated group.Conclusion:Anti CD3 monoclonal antibody significantly reduced the risk of acute rejection and significantly reduced the rate of graft loss.Anti CD3 monoclonal antibody significantly increased the incidence rate of CMV infection,which should be paid attention.

AIM To study the protective and antiperoxidative effects of baicalin on myocardial ischemia. METHODS The rat anterior decenging branch of left coronary artery was occluded for 40 min and reperfusion for 120 min. Hemodynamics (LVP, LV d p /d t ) and electrocardiogram (ECG, lead Ⅱ) monitored continuously with polygraph,then the myocardium were taken to assay lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA) contents and superoxide dismatase (SOD). RESULTS Baicalin 10 or 40 mg?kg -1 iv depressed changes in LDH, MDA and SOD in myocardium after ischemia for 40 min and reperfusion for 120 min in rats. Baicalin 10 and 40 mg?kg -1 iv markedly improved the ?d p /d t max (kPa?s -1 ), LVSP in rat after ischemia for 40 min and reperfusion. CONCLUSION Baicalin possesses a protective effect against myocardial ischemia via attenuating lipid peroxidation.

A patient with impaired kidney function after kidney transplantation and received treatment at the First Hospital of Jilin University was retrospective analyzed. The patient was male, 45 years old, and was diagnosed hemolytic uremic syndrome by transplanted kidney biopsy. The patient received cyclosporine A (CsA) as maintenance centered immunosuppression therapy postoperatively. He was admitted because of 1 week acratia followed by 1 day increased serum creatinine level at 1.5 years after transplantation. At 1 day after admission, he was received renal needle biopsy, and underwent 2 days Prednlsolone treatment. After hemolytic-uremic syndrome was diagnosed, CsA was transferred to Tacrolimus (Fk506) with dose of 2 mg/d, and Azathioprine was replaced by mycophenolate, Prednisone was taken orally for 20 mg/d. The function of the transplanted kidney and the change of routine blood tests were observed. After 1 week treatment of the changed Immunosuppression therapy, the function of the transplanted kidney was improved obviously, and the hemoglobin and platelets was decreased during the treatment. The results demonstrated that kidney biopsy is a key method to diagnose hemolytic-uremic syndrome, and adjustment of immunosuppressive agents, replacing CsA with FK506 are effective for postoperative hemolytic-uremic syndrome.
