Recent studies have shown that immune cells play an important role in the development of non-immune diseases.Regulatory T cells (Treg) are a group of T cell subsets which have immunoregulatory and immunosuppressive functions.Abnormalities in the number and function of Treg cells may cause immune imbalance, which leads to the development of diseases.Immunometabolic disorders may in turn affect the generation, proliferation and function of Treg cells.Clarification of the relationship and interaction between immunometabolism and Treg cells will make it possible to treat metabolic diseases with cellular immunotherapy.

Objective To muhi-directionally visualize and measure the normal anatomy of palatovaginal canal and its communications with high-resolution multi-slice spiral CT and its post-processing technologies.Methods One hundred and sixty-seven subjects with normal PPF and its communications were examined by 16-MSCT using high-resolution technique.The MPR and CPR images of palatovaginal canal were obtained on postproeessing workstation.The length and diameter of the palatovaginal canal and its communications was measured and analyzed with one way ANOVA analysis and independent samples t test.Results In this study, the detection rate of palatovaginal canal on 167 subjects was 98.8% (330/334).The mean length of left and right palatovaginal canal was (1.18 ± 0.22) cm and (1.07 ± 0.29) cm, respectively.The mean diameter of anterior opening (0.19±0.06)cm was significantly larger than median (0.10 ± 0.04) cm and posterior opening (0.16 ± 0.07)cm in left palatovaginal canal (F = 211.109, P < 0.01).Similarly,The mean diameters of anterior, median and posterior opening in right palatovaginal canal were (0.19±0.06)cm, (0.10±0.03)cm and(0.16±0.06) cm, respectively (F = 139.350,P <0.01).No significant difference on length measurements was revealed between the men [left: (1.18±0.22) cm; right: (1.12 ± 0.31)cm] and women [left: (1.07±0.25)cm; fight: (1.02±0.25)cm] (left: t = 0.919, P > 0.05 ;right:t = 1.117,P > 0.05).Between the men [left: (0.19±0.06) cm, (0.10 +0.04) cm and (0.16±0.07) cm; right: (0.19±0.06) cm,(0.10±0.04) cm,(0.16±0.06) cm] and women [left: (0.20±0.08) cm, (0.10±0.04) cm and (0.15±0.05) cm; right: (0.20±0.06) cm, (0.09± 0.04) cm and (0.15±0.05) cm], no significant difference on diameter measurements was revealed (left: t =- 1.183,0.190 and 1.660 ; fight: t = - 1.420,1.210 and 0.802 ; all P > 0.05).Conclusion On the basis of high-resolution MDCT scan, MPR and CPR images could visualize clearly the morphologic features of the palatovaginal canal, which may be helpful for making diagnostic and therapeutic decisions because more imaging information could be obtained.

Objective To give a dose reference to the researcher who study prevention of restenosis using endovascular brachytherapy Methods The dose distributions around a 3 mm diam by 20 mm long balloon filled with 90 Y , 32 P and 186 Re separately have been calculated by a computer program based on a dose point kernel Results The peak value of the absorbed dose is found inside the balloon, the inflexion of the dose curve at the endothelial surface of the vessel In the vessel tissue the dose decreases with distance in an approximately exponential manner The lower the nuclide energy is, the faster the dose falls with distance, and the longer the region of uniform dose distribution along vessel wall is The dose rate at the surface of the vessel wall is approximately 74, 71, and 45 mGy/min per mCi/ml, with the dose rate decreasing to 53%, 48% and 28% at 0 5 mm for 90 Y , 32 P and 186 Re separately Conclusion The fast falling of the dose in an approximately exponential manner in the vessel tissue makes for focusing ? radionuclide energy to the vessel wall target and reducing the injury of the normal tissue around the vessel, and especially 186 Re with lower energy has a more obvious advantage in this aspect

Objective:To investigate the change of thymus in different period of EAE mice. Methods: The thymic index and thymocyte number at 0,10,15,20 days after EAE induced were recorded. The percent of thymic apoptosis and CD4+CD44+T cells in spleen was acquired by Flow Cytometry. The content of p53 and Bcl-2 gene was detected by PCR and electrophoretic technique. Results:The thymic index and thymocyte number correspondingly reduced at 0,10,15 days after EAE induced. Apoptotic rate of thymocyte increased at 10,15 days after EAE induced,highest at 10 days. The percent of CD4+CD44+T cells also increased at 10,15 days after EAE induced, highest at 10 days. The content of p53 increased, while Bcl-2 reduced at 10 days after EAE induced. Conclusion:The atrophy of thymus is most serious at 15 days after induction;while the apoptotic percent is highest at 10 days after induction,which have a relationship with regulation of p53 and Bcl-2. The change of thymus in EAE mice closely related with EAE attack,and the recovery of thymus precede EAE.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (non-M3 type) in children suffering from different levels of platelet count(PLT).Methods:In the Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to December 2018, laboratory and clinical data of 247 de novo primary AML pediatric patients were retrospectively reviewed.According to the PLT before treatment, patients were divided into very low platelet group (VLG), low platelet group (LG) and non-lowing platelet group (NLG), with<50×10 9/L, ≥50×10 9/L but <125×10 9/L and ≥125×10 9/L as the boundaries.All patients were followed up until June 30, 2019.Meanwhile, the follow-up data was obtained by consulting medical records or by telephone.SPSS 17.0 software was applied for data analysis. Results:In general clinical features, a different group of hemoglobin (Hb) content, fusion gene AML- ETO and clinical risk stratification were statistically significant in different PLT groups ( χ2=11.270, 12.115 and 12.848, respectively, all P<0.05). However, the differences of other indicators in different groups of PLT were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in terms of 3-year disease-free survival(DFS) rate (59.3%, 36.3%, 50.4%) among the 3 groups (all P>0.05). The median total survival(OS)time(40.5 months)and 3-year OS rate(41.0%) of NLG patients were significantly higher than those of VLG(23.1 months, 30.1%)and LG(14.1 months, 18.2%)patients, with statistically significant differences( χ2=7.798 and 6.553, respectively, all P<0.05). The univariate analysis of gender, white blood cell(WBC), Hb, PLT, lactic dehydrogenase(LDH), FLT3-ITD, NPM1, DNMT3A, CEPBA, C-KIT, AML-ETO, molecular genetic prognosis, complete remission(CR), and hemopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT) displayed that DNMT3A mutation was an adverse factor that affects patients′ OS ( χ2 =5.834, P<0.05), and the positive factors that influences OS were non-reducing PLT before treatment, and obtaining CR and subsequent HSCT ( χ2=7.798, 79.168, and 31.337, respectively, all P<0.05). Multi-factor analysis revealed that the independent protective factors that affect patients′ OS were the non-reducing PLT before treatment, and obtaining CR and subsequent HSCT( Wald=42.760, 15.918, and 10.183, respectively, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Before treatment, non-reducing PLT is a protective factor for primary childhood AML patients, and the prognosis is satisfying.
