The aim of this study was to comprehensively investigate the correlations between foliar fungal endophyte communities and effective components accumulations in Salvia miltiorrhiza. Foliar samples of S. miltiorrhiza were collected in 5 different areas. Their fungal endophyte communities and effective component contents were determined by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively. The results showed that, for characteristics of foliar fungal endophyte communities and effective component contents, there were both similarities and differences among the five samples. Correlation analysis of DGGEs' band and 24 effective components revealed a significant correlations (P < 0.01). For examples, 4 bands (15, 18, 23 and 26) were all significantly correlated with the accumulations of caffeic acid, salvianolic acid B, salvianolic acid C and dihydrotanshinone I.

ObjectiveTo detect the features of dopamine secretion of cultured bovine retinal pigmentary epithelial(RPE) cells. The level of dopamine and survival rate after passage and microencapsulation were also observed. MethodsThe primary culture of bovine RPE cells was made using enzyme digestion. After purification and identification the growth curve of the cell was observed. Alginate-polylysine-alginate(APA) microencapsulated cells were made with a high voltage electostatic system. The activity of the cells in the mirocapsule was investigated by trypan blue staining. The secretion of dopamine was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay. ResultsThe cell had high purity of immunocytochemistry. The growth curve showed that the exponential growth occurred at the first 1~4 days. Dopamine content was first detected at the time point of 2 hour, and arrived at the peak at about 48 hour of the cultivation. The secretion of dopamine was not different between passages. Dopamine secretion was dramatically decreased in the first 4 days after microencapsulation (P

Objective To explore the incidence and risk factors of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods The clinical data of 72 cases allo-HSCT from Oct 2004 to Dec 2008 were analyzed. Thirteen factors possibly correlated with the development of aGVHD were analyzed. Results aGVHD was developed in 32 cases (44.4 %), in which grades Ⅰ aGVHD was 11.1%, gradesⅡaGVHD was 18.1%, and grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD was 15.3 %. The univariate analysis showed that diagnosis, the status of disease, use ATG, conditioning regimen, donor type,ABO blood group disparity between donor and recipient, CD34+ cell number, early engraftment and neutropenic infection, HLA locus were associated with the occurence of aGVHD (P <0.1). On the COX regression mode, an increased risk of aGVHD was associated with HLA mismatch (HR =2.58, P <0.005), GVHD prophylaxis without ATG (HR =2.94, P < 0.001), and unrelated donor (HR =1.97, P <0.01). Conclusion aGVHD is a common complication after allo-HSCT, and HLA mismatch and unrelated donor are independent risk factors for aGVHD.

Objective To summarize the reasons of mis-diagnosis and mis-treatment of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Methods Clinical data of 17 patients with AIP,who were admitted to the hospital from May 2005 to July 2010 and experienced mis-diagnosis and mis-treatment, were retrospectively analyzed. Results The main clinical manifestations included epigastric pain (13 cases),progressive obstructive jaundice (12 cases), fever (6 cases) and weight loss (9 cases). Fifteen patients had extrapancreatic organ involvemnet, including allergic rhinitis, swelling of lymphoglandulae submaxillares, swelling of submaxillary gland, allergic asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren syndrome, diabetes mellitus, primary sclerosing cholangitis and autoimmune hepatitis. Of these 17 cases, 11 cases presented with high serum globulin, 14 cases with high serum IgG, 13 cases with high serum γ-globulin, 13 cases with positive anti-nuclear antibody and 2 cases with positive anti-insulin IgG antibody. The abdominal imaging demonstrated that 15 patients had diffuse enlargement of the pancreas with diffuse or segmental narrowing of main pancreatic duct, narrowing of the intrapancreatic common bile duct, dilation of the proximal biliary duct and gallbladder enlargement. Focal enlargement of the pancreas was found in 2 cases. Thirteen cases were misdiagnosed as pancreatic carcinoma. Among them, 4 cases underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and 7 cases underwent choledochojejunostomy. Two cases were misdiagnosed as end stage of cancer that lost therapeutic chance. Another 4 cases were misdiagnosed as chronic pancreatitis. Steroid therapy was administered in all patients with satisfactory response. All patients were followed-up for 15 months (ranged from 6 months to 45 months), and recurrence was found in 4 cases. Satisfactory response was found in patients treated with steroid for the second time. No pancreatic cancer was found in these patients in the follow up period. Conclusion The main causes of mis-diagnosis and mis-treatment of AIP may be contributed by difficulty in differentiating AIP from pancreatic carcinoma based on clinical manifestations and inadequate knowledge of AIP as well as insufficient attention to AIP in China.
