Objective To analyze effects of antithymocyte globulin(ATG) in preventing the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease(GVHD) in allogeneic stem cells transplantation. Methods Twenty-seven patients with leukemia were divided into two groups.The source of the transplantation donor and the type of acute leukemia were similar between the two groups,including HLA-sibling donors,HLA-unrelated donors and HLA-haploidentical donors.The 12 patients in group A adopted the classic method(CsA + MTX) to prevent GVHD.The 15 patients in group B adopted CsA + MTX +ATG to prevent the occurrence of GVHD. Results The 15 patients in group B have been all survived.Four of them presented Ⅱ0 acute GVHD(aGVHD),while the rest 11 patients only presented Ⅰ0 GVHD in approximately 30 d after transplantation with control very soon.In group A,Ⅳ? ultra-acute GVHD occurred in 3 HLA-haploidentical patients at day 7,9 and 10 after transplantation.One HLA-unrelated patient presented Ⅲ? aGVHD.The 4 patients above mentioned died due to pulmonary infection secondary to severe GVHD.The rest 8 HLA-sibling patients presented Ⅱ?-Ⅲ? aGVHD. ConclusionUsing ATG before allogeneic stem cells transplantation can efficiently prevent the occurrence of GVHD or relieve its severity.It can significantly diminish the transplantation related mortality rate.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors in patients with low grade glioma. Methods Eighty- seven patients with low grade glioma confirmed by cytological examination were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among 87 patients, male accounted for 62.1%(54/87), and the average age was 36.2 years. The average followed- up time was 51.4 months (3-135 months), and 5 cases were lost in follow-up. The follow- up rate was 94.3% (82/87). The 3- year survival rate was 84.1%, and the 5- year survival rate was 66.7%. The 3- year survival rate was related to clinical symptoms, maximum diameter of tumor and the extent of resection (P<0.01 or<0.05);and the 5- year survival rate was related to years, Karnofsky score, clinical symptoms, maximum diameter of tumor, the pathology classification and extent of resection (P<0.05 or<0.01). Conclusions Low grade glioma is more common in male patients and patients under the age of 40 years. Age below 40 years, Karnofsky score ≥ 70 scores, only epilepsy symptom, tumor diameter below 6.0 cm, oligodendrogliomas, complete resection or subtotal resection are positive prognostic factors. Postoperative radiotherapy can reduce the rate of tumor progression.

Paeoniflorin is the main active ingredient of Chinese herbaceous peony. This study is to investigate the protective effect of paeoniflorin (Pae) on acute brain damage induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice. The mice were randomly assigned to the normal control, model control (LPS), as well as groups of paeoniflorin and lipopolysaccharide (Pae + LPS). Then the mice were administered intraperitioneally with normal saline or Pae (10, 30 mg · kg(-1)) once daily for 6 d. One hour after intrapertioneally treatment on the seventh day, each group were injected LPS (5 mg · kg(-1)) to establish the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide inflammation model except the normal group. The mice were sacrificed after 6 h and the brain homogenates were prepared and measured. The malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), succinatedehydrogenase (SDH), Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase were dectected by the colorimetric method. The levels of HO-1 and Nrf2 protein in subcellular fractions of brain tissue were detected by Western blot. The results demonstrated that the administration with paeoniflorin reduced the levels of the MDA production; significantly increase the activities of antioxidant enzyme (SOD and GSH-PX). In addition, paeoniflorin could enhance the total antioxidant capacity, decrease the level of H2O2, and increase the activities of SDH, Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase. Furthermore, paeoniflorin can increase the expression of HO-1 and activate the nuclear transfer of Nrf2. Taking together, these findings suggest that paeoniflorin alleviate the acute inflammation in mice brain damage induced by LPS, which is related with its antioxidant effect and improvement of energy metabolism.
