Objective To explore the effects of inducible co-stimulator (ICOS) gene on the cytotoxic activity of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells against cholangiocarcinoma cells. Methods CIK-ICOS cells were obtained by stable transfecting ICOS genes into CIK cells through the adenovirus vector whereas untransfected and EGFP-transfected CIK cells were treated as controls. The proliferation and apoptosis of different CIK cells, as well as their cytotoxicity against cholangiocarcinoma cells in the three groups were detected. The expressions of IFN-T, IL-2 and TNF-α in the supernatant of different CIK cells were measured by ELISA. SCID mice with cholangiocarcinoma were randomly divided into CIK group, CIK-EGFP group, CIK-ICOS group and normal saline group. The cytotoxic activity of CIK-ICOS cells against cholangiocarcinoma cells in vivo was observed. Results CIK-ICOS cells displayed better proliferation than CIK cells and CIK-EGFP cells. At day 20 and 23 of culture, the apoptosis rate of CIK-ICOS cells was 0.69% and 0.89%, respectively, while that of the CIK cells was 2.90% and 4.92%. The cytotoxic effect of CIK-ICOS cells at different E: T ratio against cholangiocarcinoma cells was significantly stronger than that of CIK cells and CIK-EGFP cells (F=13.37, 6.46, 25.51, P<0.05). The concentration of IFN-γ in CIK-ICOS cultured supernatant was (49.50±4.73)μg/L, which was significantly higher than that in the cultured supernatant of CIK cells [(30.53±3.73)μg/L] and CIK-EGFP cells [(30.12±2.64)μg/L](F=38.89, P<0.05). The growth of cholangiocarcinoma was significantly slower in CIK-ICOS group than that in CIK group and CIK-EGFP group, whereas the necrosis area of tumor was larger and the CIK cells in CIK-ICOS group was more than those in the other two groups. Conclusions CIK cells had the function of killing cholangiocarcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo. After ICOS genes were transfected into CIK cells, the survival time of CIK cells in vitro was prolonged and the proliferation of CIK cells was enhanced, as well as the secretion of IFN-γ was increased so that the cytotoxicity of CIK cells against cholangiocarcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo was enhanced.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and prognosis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients with gross hematuria.Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 490 primary IgAN patients admitted in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2010 to June 2019 were analyzed. Patients were divided into gross hematuria group and non-gross hematuria group. The clinical and pathological features and prognosis were compared between the two groups. All patients were diagnosed by kidney biopsy, and followed up until June 30, 2020. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to examine the renal survival,and Cox regression model was used to analyze the risk factors affecting renal survival in two groups.Results:Among 490 patients there were 111 patients (22.7%) in the gross hematuria group and 379 patients (77.3%) in the non-gross hematuria group. Age, hypertension, 24-h urine protein, serum creatinine, blood uric acid, blood triglycerides, total blood cholesterol level, mesangial cell hyperplasia (M1), the proportion of renal tubular atrophy or renal interstitial fibrosis (T1/2) in gross hematuria group were lower than those in non-gross hematuria group ( P<0.05), while the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in gross hematuria group was higher than those in non-gross hematuria group ( P<0.05). Four hundred and twenty six patients (86.9%) were followed up for at least 6 months, including 93 patients in gross hematuria group and 333 patients in non-gross hematuria group. There was no statistically significant difference in treatment method between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of end-point events in non-gross hematuria group was higher than that in gross hematuria group [18.6%(62/333) vs. 6.5%(6/93), χ2=8.023, P<0.05]. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative renal survival rate of the gross hematuria group was higher than that of the non gross hematuria group (χ2=11.44, P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that urine protein>1 g/24 h, eGFR<60 ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1, hypertension, hyperuricemia and the elevated serum IgA/C3 were risk factors for renal survival [ HR(95% CI)=3.457(1.137-10.514),2.736(1.073-6.977),2.720(1.144-6.465),2.789(1.102-7.060),1.070(1.009-1.135), all P<0.05]. Conclusions:IgAN patients with gross hematuria has less severe kidney damage and higher cumulative renal survival rate than non-gross hematuria patients. Urinary protein>1.0 g/d, hypertension, hyperuricemia and the elevated serum IgA/C3 are risk factors for adverse end-point events, to which timely attention and corresponding treatment should be given.

Objective To detect and analyze the percentages of CD4+T, CD8+T and invariant na-ture killer T ( iNKT) cells as well as iNKT subsets in different tissues and organs of non-obese diabetic (NOD)/LtJ mice before the onset and in the early and late stages of type 1 diabetes (T1D) for better under-standing the immune function in different disease stages. Methods Female NOD/LtJ mice were selected as experimental subjects. Their fasting blood glucose levels were measured by blood glucose meter. Glycosuria and blood glucose level ≥11. 1 mmol/L in two consecutive detections were used as the diagnostic criteria of T1D. These mice were divided into three groups as follows: non-onset, early stage and late stage groups. Changes in food and water intake, glucose level in the urine, body weight, mental state, fur color and urine volume were recorded. Percentages of CD4+T, CD8+T and iNKT cells and ratios of subsets in peripheral blood, thymus, spleen, liver and inguinal lymph nodes were detected by flow cytometry (FACS). Results (1) Compared with the non-onset and the early stage groups, mice in the late stage group were apathetic and had rough hair. Moreover, significantly increased water and food intake and urine output (P<0. 05) and de-creased body weight, thymus index, spleen index and the absolute lymphocyte counts of spleen, liver and thymus (P<0. 05) were observed in the late stage group. (2) Compared with the non-onset group, the early stage group showed significantly increased percentages of CD4+T cells in spleen, liver, thymus and inguinal lymph nodes (P<0. 05). Compared with the early stage group, the late stage group showed decreased per-centages of CD4+T cells in liver, thymus, inguinal lymph nodes and peripheral blood (P<0. 05). Compared with the non-onset group, the percentages of CD8+T cells in the early stage group were significantly increased in spleen and thymus, but reduced in inguinal lymph nodes (P<0. 05). Compared with the early stage group, the percentages of CD8+T cells in late stage group were significantly reduced in liver and thymus, but increased in inguinal lymph nodes (P<0. 05). (3) The percentages of iNKT cells in liver and inguinal lymph nodes of mice in the early stage group were significantly higher than those of the non-onset group (P<0. 05). The percentages of iNKT cells in peripheral blood and liver of mice in the late stage group were sig-nificantly lower than those of the early stage group (P<0. 05). No significant difference in the percentages of iNKT cells in spleen and thymus was found among the three groups (P>0. 05). (4) Compared with the non-onset group, the percentages of iNKT1 subset in thymus in the early and late stage groups were significantly increased, while the percentages of iNKT2 subset were significantly decreased (P<0. 05). No significant difference in the percentages of iNKT1 and iNKT2 subsets in spleen, liver and inguinal lymph nodes was found among the three groups (P>0. 05). (5) The percentages of iNKT2 subset in spleen, liver and ingui-nal lymph nodes were significantly lower than those of the iNKT1 subset in the three groups (P<0. 05). The percentage of iNKT2 subset in thymus was significantly higher than that of iNKT1 subset in the non-onset group (P<0. 05). (6) Compared with the non-onset and the late stage groups, the early stage group showed significantly increased levels of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17A and up-regulated ratio of IFN-γ/IL-4 (P<0. 05). Compared with the non-onset and the early stage groups, the late stage group showed significantly increased IL-6 level (P<0. 05). Compared with the non-onset group, IL-10 level in the other two groups was in-creased, especially in the late stage group (P<0. 05). No significant difference in IL-2 level was found among the three groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion Increased percentages of iNKT cells and iNKT1 subset in NOD/LtJ mice with early stage of T1D might be involved in the development of T1D.

Objective:To explore the effect of a health management model constructed based on reflexive reconstruction strategy in patients with acute pancreatitis.Methods:Totally 150 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to Jincheng No.2 People's Hospital from January 2020 to January 2022 were selected by convenience sampling. They were divided into observation and control groups, each containing 75 individuals, using a random number table. Patients in the observation group were managed using a health management model under the reflexive reconstruction strategy, while patients in the control group followed a conventional health management model.Results:Six months post-intervention, the total score of health behavior capacity and the scores of its four dimensions, as well as the score indicating the level of health knowledge mastery in the observation group, were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01). Furthermore, the recurrence rate of acute pancreatitis in the observation group was 5.3% (4/75), which was lower than 16.0% (12/75) observed in the control group, demonstrating a statistically significant difference (χ 2=4.478, P=0.034) . Conclusions:The health management model developed based on the reflexive reconstruction strategy can enhance the health behavior capacity and the level of health knowledge mastery in patients with acute pancreatitis and reduce the recurrence rate of acute pancreatitis. It can serve as a reference for the continuous improvement of clinical health care management programs.
