Objective To observe dynamically the location and time of attachment and invasion of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites to murine intestinal mucosa by chromogenic in situ hybridization targeting SAG2 mRNA. Methods Thirty 7- to 8-week-old BALB/c mice were randomly divided into experiment group(24 mice)and control group(6 mice). Each animal in the experiment group was given 2?104 tachyzoites of RH stain in 0.2 ml PBS by intragastric administration and that in the control group was given 0.2 ml PBS. Four mice in the experiment group and one in the control group were sacrificed at 15 min,30 min,1 h,2 h,4 h and 8 h after infection,respectively,and paraffin sections of duodenum,jejunum and ileum were prepared to perform the in situ hybridization with Dig-labeled oligonucleotide probe complementary to SAG2 mRNA of T. gondii. Results Tachyzoites were found on the striated border of small intestine epithelial cells (absorptive cells,goblet cells and endocrine cells),in or between two absorptive cells or in the lamina propria. At 15 min-2 h after infection,there was significant difference in the number of attachment on jejunum and ileum (P

Objective To study the invasion and proliferation in IEC-6 cells of Toxoplasma gondii RH strain tachyzoites in vitro.Methods T.gondii tachyzoites of RH strain were co-cultured with IEC-6 cells in vitro,the process of cell adhesion,invasion and proliferation by tachyzoites was observed consecutively with inverted microscope.At 5 min,10 min,20 min,30 min,1,2,4,6,12,24 and 48 h after co-culture,the tachyzoite invasion to IEC-6 and intra-cellular proliferation were observed with Giemsa-Wright's staining,respectively.The invasive rate of tachyzoites to IEC-6 was counted.Results T.gondii tachyzoites invaded the IEC-6 cells 5 min after culture,thenceforth the invasive rate increased gradually.The invasive rate was about 55.0% at the first hour after culture with 1-5 tachyzoites in one cell.In the second hour after culture,the rate reached highest with 81.8 % and there were many pseudocysts emerging.At the same time,tachyzoites invaded the cell nucleus and proliferated in the nucleus.At the 4th hour after culture,the invasive rate began to decrease(80.8?9.2)%,the pseudocysts began to break and tachyzoites were released to cluster.The clustering tachyzoites increased significantly at the 6th hour.At the 12th hour the clustering tachyzoites decreased and most tachyzoites were free,the number of complete cells decreased obviously.There were only a few cells and pseudocysts left at the 24th hour,and a great quantity of free tachyzoites existed out of the IEC-6 cells.There were plenty of mobile tachyzoites while none of IEC-6 cells existed after 48 h culture.Conclusion IEC-6 cell may be the suitable target cell of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite.The tachyzoites can invade the IEC-6 cells quickly in vitro and proliferate in the plasma and nucleus with a reproductive cycle of about 6 to 12 hrs.

Objective The dose and type of light and photosensitizer could seriously affect the curative effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT).The purpose of this study was to observe whether or not PDT with hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) can cure laryngocarcinoma in the solid tumor model,and to define the proper laser amount for killing the cancer cells.Methods Forty eight BALB/c mouse models with subcutaneous Hep-2 laryngeal carcinomas were prepared.Mice were divided into six groups depending on the amount of laser received from 30 J/cm2 to 480 J/cm2 including a control group,tumor size in each group was between 8 mm and 10 mm.Tail vein injection were given with HMME prior to applying the laser light,and then illumination was carried out on the tumor at 3 h after HMME administration.Tumor volume,animal weight and histopathologic changes were observed after PDT.Results All mice apparently showed positive results via PDT,and the cancer had been cured in 120 J/cm2 and 480 J/cm2 groups.The laryngeal cancer lesions began to form scab 1 d after PDT and the scab became hard and black after 5 d.The tumor regression began simultaneously and completed around 30 d after PDT.Conclusions PDT may treat laryngeal cancers which sized less than 10 mm in mouse models.The optimum energy to destruct the laryngeal cancer cells may be 120 J/cm2.

Aim To explore the relationship between IL-8 and ELMO1 in breast carcinoma and the mecha-nisms of IL-8 induced invasion and metastasis. Meth-ods Under the IL-8 stimulation, chemotaxis assay was examined to detect the chemotaxis ability of breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 . ELMO1 protein levels in breast cancer cell lines were detected using Western blot. MDA-MB-231 cells were transfect-ed with small RNA interference plasmids in order to downregulate ELMO1 expression, and overexpression plasmids were used to upregulate the expression of EL-MO1 in MCF-7 cells. Matrigel invasion assay and chemotaxis assay were used to detect the in vitro inva-sion and chemotaxis ability of breast cancer cells with IL-8 stimulation. Results IL-8 induced chemotaxis of the different breast cancer cell lines in a dose-depend-ent manner. After transient transfection, Western blot results showed that ELMO 1 protein levels observably decreased in SiELMO1/MDA-MB-231 cells compared with Scr/MDA-MB-231 cells, while the expression of ELMO1 protein levels significantly increased in MCF-7/ELMO1 cells compared with the MCF-7/Con cells;with IL-8 stimulation, SiELMO1/MDA-MB-231 cells showed significantly decreased chemotaxis ability com-pared with Scr/MDA-MB-231 cells. MCF-7/ELMO1 cells showed significantly increased chemotaxis ability compared with MCF-7/Con cells; the invasion assay showed under the stimulation of IL-8 , and the invasion ability was significantly reduced in SiELMO1/MDA-MB-231 cells compared with Scr/MDA-MB-231 cells ( P<0. 05 ) . The invasion ability was significantly en-hanced in MCF-7/ELMO1 cells compared with MCF-7 cells( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion IL-8 promotes the in-vasion and migration of breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 , and ELMO1 plays an important role in IL-8 induced chemotaxis and invasion.

Objective To observe the removal of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-? ), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) on hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) patients, and investigate the effect of inflammatory mediators on HFRS. Methods A total of 40 patients with moderate or more severe HFRS were divided into two groups randomly. Continuous venous-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) was applied to the 20 cases in CVVH group, and hemodialysis (HD) was applied to the 20 cases in HD group. The levels of TNF-? and IL-6 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and ET-1 level was measured by radioimmunoassays (RIA). Results ① In comparing CVVH and HD groups, the days of oliguria (3.0?2.1, 6.0?3.4), incidence of complications (25%, 40%), and mortality (15%, 25%) had significant differences (P0.05). ④ In CVVH group, IL-6 and ET-1 could be detected constantly in filtrate, but TNF-? was not detectable. TNF-?, IL-6 and ET-1 were not detectable in dialysate. Conclusion Continuous blood purification can remove plasma inflammatory mediators. Therefore, it is helpful in recovering renal function, improving the prognosis of HFRS, and decreasing complications and mortality. CVVH is one of the best methods to treat HFRS.

Objective To establish mice model that induces mucosal immunity by orally infected tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii. Methods Respectively, 5?103, 5?104, 5?105, 5?106 tachyzoites of RH strain were inoculated to BALB/c mice by stomach delivery. The control group was given PBS solution. Symptoms and pathological changes of mice were observed. Secretory im-munoglobulin A (SIgA) was assayed. The lymphocytes from Peyer's patches (PP) and intraepithe-lial lymphocyte (IEL) were observed and the changes of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells assayed by SABC immunohistochemistry. Results Inoculation of 5?104 tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii caused symptoms and pathological changes in mice. The titre of SIgA increased in intestine, and CD4+ T subset of the mucosal inductive sites and CD8+ T subset of the mucosal effectors' sites increased. Conclusion Mucosal immunity may be induced by oral infection of 5?104 tachyzoites of T. gondii RH strain in BALB/c mice.

Objective To investigate and compare the killing effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT)induced by hematoporphyrin derivative (HpD),hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) and photocarcinorin (PsD007) on human leukemia cells K562 in vitro.Methods Human leukemia cells were cultured with serial concentrations of photosensitizers followed by irradiation of different dosage of laser light,then MTT colorimetric assay was applied to measure the relative survival rate of PDT for the cells.Results Significant difference in the inhibitory between the PDT group and control group was observed (P＜0.05).The survival rate of PDT for the cells elevated along with the increase in the concentration of sensitizer and dose of laser light.When the photosensitizer concentration was bigger (25 μg/ml) or the energy density was bigger (7.2 J/cm2),the effect of PsD007 was better than HMME,and they were significantly better than HpD (P＜0.05).Conclusion PDT has significant killing effect on human leukemia cells K562,and its relative inhibitory rate appears to be correlated with the dose of sensitizer and laser light irritation.The effect of PDT is related to the photosensitizers.The effect of HpD-PDT is not as effective as PsD007 and HMME.On the conditions of higher energy density and larger photosensitizer concentration,the effect of PsD007-PDT is better than HMME-PDT.
