10 mU/L (GroupⅡ,71 cases) when they were one year old.There were 40 healthy children in control group. The genomic DNA from the peripheral blood was extracted and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing were employed to detect the IL-12B gene 3′UTR+1188 SNP.Results The frequency of AA,AC and CC genotype in GroupⅠwere 25.7%,44.3% and 30.0% respectively,and 36.6%, 47.9% and 15.5% in GroupⅡ,48.8%,39.0%,12.2%,in control group,respectively.The differ- ence of frequency of CC genotype and non-CC genotype between GroupⅠand GroupⅡwas significant (x~2=17.078,P

Objective To explore the effect of bacillus calmette-guerin (BCG)intervention on expression of costimulatory molecules of B7-CD28/CD152 and T lymphocyte apoptosis in asthmatic mouse.Methods Twenty-seven mice were randomly divided into:asthma model group,BCG treatment group and normal control group.The mice were sensitized by ovalbumin(OVA) and 100 g/L Al(OH)3 with intraperitoneal injection,challenged with atomization inhalation,then reproduced the asthmatic models.The BCG treatment group were treated with BCG(0.025 mg,merely) subcutaneous injection 3 times before sensitization(5,3,1 day).The normal control group were treated with 9 g/L saline water taking place of OVA and Al(OH)3.CD28,CD152,CD80 and CD86 were analyzed by flow cytometry in splenic lymphocyte suspension.T lymphocyte was cultivated from peripheral blood mononuclear cell.The apoptosis ratio of T lymphocyte was counted by Comet Assay.SPSS 10.0 software was applied to analyze data.Results Contrasting asthma model group with normal control group,CD28 was up regulated(t=3.94 P0.05),CD86 was up regulated(t=2.68 P0.05).Contrasting BCG treatment group with asthma model group,T lymphocyte apoptosis rate was higher(t=3.15 P

Drug reservation wag investigated in 2077 community residents.We found that most drugs were obtained from the hospitals(83.78%),kept at a relatively lower place(69.23%),packed in box(75.25%),and did not meet the storage requirement(72.60%).Half of the overdue drugs(median time,12 months)were used for internal treatment.This study suggests that there might be unsafe drug storage in communities.

mutants which didnt produce red pigmen ts on malt extract agar plate were obtained.The 8 stable mutants were cultured on solid medium.Two samples wer e yellow,the others were white.The extracted samples were scanned in visible len gth.2 yellow samples showed only one absorptive peak at 370nm,the 6 white sample s showed no absorptive peak.The mutants producing only yellow pigments on solid medium were tested in liquid culture.The results indicated their ability to pro duce only yellow pigments were stable.

Objective　To evaluate the therapeutic effect of phacoemulsification for complicated cataract secondary to uveitis. Metho ds　Twenty-one eyes of 19 patients with complicated cataract secondary to uveitis were emulsified in situ frature technique after blunt separation of iris posterior synechiae, excision of organized membrane with scissors and st retching pupil. Results　The visual acuities with correction on e week after operation was≥ 0.5 in 16 eyes (76.2%), and ≥0.2 in 18 eyes (85.7% ). The major complications were iris damage and corneal edema. No rupture of pos terior capsule and corneal decompensation were found. After operation, a round p upil was obtained in 19 eyes (90.5%) and an irregular pupil in 2 eyes (9.5%).Conclusion　This operation is suitable for complicated cataract se condary to uveitis, and worth to popularize due to the minimization of iris dam age and postoperative inflammation in the anterior chamber, good visual acuity r ehabilitation earlier.

OBJECTIVETo study the regulatory effect of thymosin α1 (Tα1) on immunosuppression of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from children with aplastic anemia (AA) through Toll-like receptor 9(TLR9)and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) signaling pathway.

METHODBone marrow T cell subsets from children with AA and normal individuals were measured by using flow cytometry. Expressions of TLR9/IDO mRNA of MSCs cocultured with Tα1 were determined by reverse-transcription PCR (RT-PCR). Inhibition of PHA-activated T cell proliferation and activation by MSCs cocultured with Tα1 was detected by using MTT assay and flow cytometry.

RESULTCD4(+)/CD8(+) ratio (0.64 ± 0.02) in children with AA was significantly lower than that in normal individuals (1.42 ± 0.05); but CD8(+)/CD38(+) ratio (0.92 ± 0.04) was significantly higher than that in normal individuals (0.65 ± 0.05). AA MSCs obviously expressed TLR9, but not IDO; AA MSCs treated with Tα1 downregulated TLR9 expression but upregulated IDO expression in concentration- and time-dependent manners. The inhibition of AA MSCs on T cell proliferation (21.38% ± 12.34%) was lower than that in normal individuals (62.72% ± 17.79%, P < 0.05), while AA MSCs treated with Tα1 for 18 h exhibited a stronger inhibition (42.83% ± 16.54%, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe immunosuppression mediated by MSCs could be improved by Tα1 through upregulation of IDO expression via TLR9-dependent signaling pathway. This research provides a new idea for targeted immunomodulatory therapy with bone marrow MSCs from children with AA.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the role of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in the occurrence and development of conventional renal cell carcinoma(CRCC).

METHODSRT-PCR and Western-blot were used to detect mRNA and protein contents of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in 25 CRCCs and 10 normal renal tissue distant to tumor. Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the expression of cyclin D1 and p27(kip1) in pathological tissue sections of 76 CRCCs. The relationship between those index and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed statistically.

RESULTIn CRCC, the expression of cyclin D1 was higher than that of the control group. The higher cyclin D1 content was related to big tumor size (P<0.05); The expression of p27(kip1) was lower than that of the control group, and the lower p27(kip1) was related to higher nuclear grade and TNM stage (P<0.01). The 5-year cumulative survival rate of the p27(kip1) high expression group is longer than that of the low group (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe excessive expression of cyclin D1 and lower expression of p27(kip1) play an important role in the carcinogenesis of CRCC. The lower expression of p27(kip1) may affect the progression of the tumors. The detection of p27(kip1) may be as a reference marker in the prognosis of CRCC.
