Objective To study the effects of citrullinated vimentin (cVim) on the maturation and immunologic function of dendritic cells (DCs) from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) peripheral blood.Methods In the present study,mononuclear cells were isolated from the peripheral blood of patients with RA and cultivated in media containing GM-CSF and IL-4 to generate immature DCs (imDCs).The imDCs generated were stimulated with citrullinated vimentin and vimentin.LPS was used as the positive control and PBS was used as the negative control.The expression of surface molecules on the DCs,such as CD14,CD80,CD83,CD86,MHC Ⅰ and MHC Ⅱ were analyzed with FACS.The capability of the stimulatory activity of the DCs on allogeneic T cells in mixed reaction was tested by MTS.t-test was used for statistical analysis.Results Compared to untreated DCs,DCs treated with LPS increased the expression levels of MHC Ⅱ,CD80,CD83 and CD86 (1.07±0.14,1.25±0.13,1.90±1.08,2.44±0.65,P＜0.05),while cVim increased the expression levels of MHC Ⅱ ( 1.18±0.09,P＜0.05) and CD83 ( 1.97±0.99,P＜0.01 ),and Vim decreased the expression levels of CD80 (0.82±0.18,P＜0.01 ).It was demonstrated that the expression levels of MHC Ⅱ on DCs pulsed with cVim were significantly higher than that of the DCs with LPS,but the expression levels of CD80 and CD86 were not significantly different.The expression levels of MHC Ⅱ and CD83 on DCs pulsed with cVim were significantly higher than that of the DCs with Vim.The mixed lymphocyte reaction showed that the DCs induced by LPS and cVim trigerred the proli-feration of allogenic T cells obviously.Conclusion This result suggests that cVim could promote the phenotypic maturation of DCs and increase the expression of costimulatory molecules.

Objective To analyze the curative effects and complications of ventriculo-peritoneal shunt in treating hydrocephalus caused by different diseases in children. Methods The data of 289 children with hydrocephalus who were performed ventriculo-peritoneal shunt were examined and the incidence rate of complications was analyzed. Results Thirty-seven incidences of complications occurred in 24 patients with the total incidence rate of 12.46%.There was obstruction of proximate tube in five cases,distal end in two cases,with the obstruction rate of 2.42%.Postoperative infection happened in nine cases(3.11%).Bacterial culture was positive in three cases,two of which were Staphylococcus epidermidis and Bacillus coli in the other one.Negative results were found in six patients for the bacterial culture.Subdural hematoma occured in one case,and tube break after injury in two cases.Slit ventricle syndrome broke out seven times in three cases,leakage of cerebrospinal fluid in two,exposure of pumps in three,and subcutaneous hydrops in two.Four cases(1.38%)were dead from infection. Conclusion Ventriculo-peritoneal shunt is preferred for hydrocephalus in children if the complications are well prevented and controlled.

Objective To explore the effects of hyperglycemia and oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) on the differentiation of macrophage derived THP-1 monocytes. Methods THP-1 human monocytic leukemia cell line was cultured in vitro, and the differentiation of THP-1 cells into macrophages was induced by phorbol esters. The macrophages were then incubated with the absence of D-glucose and ox-LDL (control group), 30 mmol/L D-glucose (hyperglycemia group), 100 μg/mL ox-LDL (ox-LDL group) or 30 mmol/L D-glucose and 100 μg/mL ox-LDL(G-ox-LDL group) for 24 h. High performance liquid chromatography was used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of intracellular cholesterol and cholesteryl esters. Both light microscope with red oil O staining technique and transmission electron microscope were employed to observe the morphology of treated and control THP-1 cells. Results A large number of intracellular red oil O stained granules and lipid vacuoles were observed in ox-LDL group and G-ox-LDL group, the contents of total cholesterol and cholesteryl esters were significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.05), and the contents of cholesteryl esters were higher than 50% of total cholesterol in both groups. However, only a few intracellular red oil O stained granules and lipid vacuoles were observed in control group and hyperglycemia group, there was no significant difference in the contents of total cholesterol and choleateryl esters between control group and hyperglycemia group (P>0.05), and the contents of cholesteryl esters were less than 50% of total cholesterol in both groups. Conclusion Foam cells form when THP-1 cells are incubated with ox-LDL, while hyperglycemia alone can not convert THP-1 cells to foam cells, indicating that ox-LDL is necessary for the macrophages derived THP-1 monocytes to turn into foam cells.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of TongluoShu Liquid in treating rheumatoid arthritis at early stage. Methods 100 cases were randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group with 50 cases in each group. The treatment group was given TongluoShu liquid, 150ml / time, twice a day; and the control group was given Diclofenac Sodium Sustained Release Tablets (Deegan), one granule for each time, twice a day, and Methotrexate 7.5mg / time, once per week. Results In the treatment group, symptoms, signs and biochemical indicators were significantly improved, and the swelling of the soft tissue around the joints in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ were also reduced. Besides, osteoporosis was controlled and the progress of destruction to the cartilage of stage Ⅲ was detained, though there was no statistical difference between the two groups after the treatment. Conclusion ShuTongluo liquid is a safe and effective medicine with less adverse reactions in treating rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective To observe the effects of exercise on serum adiponectin and adiponectin receptor (AdipoR) level in skeletal muscle of insulin-resistant rats. Methods A total of 30 healthy male rats were randomly divided into a control group ( NC, n = 8) and a high-fat group ( HF, n = 22), fed with normal chow and high fat diet, respectively. Eighteen weeks later, the high-fat group was randomly divided into a high-fat diet control group (HC, n = 10) and an exercise group (HE, n = 12). The HC and HE group were continually fed with high fat diet, while the HE group was administered with swimming training for 6 weeks in addition at the same time. After 24 weeks, the insulin sensitivity index was calculated, and serum adiponectin level was detected by using ELISA. The expressions of AdipoR mRNA in skeletal muscle were detected with real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results After 18 weeks, compared to NC group, the insulin sensitivity index of HF group decreased significantly. It suggested that insulin resistance appeared in HF group. Twenty-four weeks later, compared to NC group, the ISI of HC group was significantly decreased, meanwhile the level of serum adiponectin, expression of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 mRNA in skeletal muscle of HC group were 71.9% , 59.9% and 69.2% of those of the NC group, respectively; compared to HC group, the ISI was increased significantly by exercise, meanwhile the expression of AdipoR1 mRNA in skeletal muscle was significantly increased by 1.33 times, however the level of serum adiponectin and the expression of AdipoR2 mRNA in skeletal muscle were not altered in HE group. Conclusion Six weeks of exercise improves insulin sensitivity through increasing the expression of AdipoRI mRNA in skeletal muscle.

Objective To explore the effect of combined application of Pathfile in the VDW-Mtwo nickel titanium file in the elderly narrow canals.Methods 35 teeth with 101 root canals were divided into the two groups by drawing lots.In group A,root canals were prepared with VDW-Mtwo and Pathfile.In group B,root canals were prepared with VDW-Mtwo.All root canals were filled with continuous wave thermoplasticized gutta-percha technique.The operating time for each root canal,the number of broken instruments and postoperative pain were recorded.The efficacy of reparation was analyzed with radiography.Results The root canal preparation time of group A was (5.14 ± 1.25) min,which was significantly shorter than (6.82 ± 1.76) min of group B (t =5.539,P ＜ 0.05) ; The difference was not statistically significant in step formation and just fill rate between the two groups (P =1.00,1.74) ; The instrument intact of group A was 100.00％,which was significantly higher than 79.17％ of group B (x2 =4.279,P =0.039) ;The difference was not statistically significant in pain after operation between the two groups (P =0.20).Conclusion For narrow root canals preparation in the elderly treated with Mtwo and Pathfile would be shorten the preparation time and reduce broken instruments.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of infliximab (IFX) combined with conventional therapy in the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD) with incomplete intestinal obstruction.Methods From 2007 to 2013,22 cases of CD with incomplete intestinal obstruction were enrolled and were divided into IFX treatment group and conventional therapy group,each 11 cases.In conventional therapy group,patients were fasting or liquid food intake,received conventional therapy such as anti-infection and fluid supplement therapy to maintain water and electrolyte balance,long-term oral mesalazine,metacortandracin and imuran.In IFX treatment group,on the basis of conventional therapy patients received intravenous IFX 5 mg/kg at the 2nd,6th,14th,22nd and 30th week after admission.Regular blood test,liver function,erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),C reaction protein (CRP) and CD active index (CDAI) of two groups were compared before and after treatment.Patients underwent endoscopy examination on admission day and the 30th week after treatment to evaluate the efficacy.The side effects were recorded during the period of treatment.The t test and Chi squaretest were used for comparison between groups.Results Compared with conventional therapy group,the average intestinal obstruction remission time of IFX treatment group shortened ((10.53±1.28) day vs (16.82±1.97) day) and the difference was statistically significant (t =2.985,P＜0.05).At the end of 30th week after treatment,clinical total effective rate of IFX treatment group and conventional therapy group was 9/11 and 7/11 (x2 ＝22.35,P＜0.05).Under endoscopy,total effective rate of these two groups was 7/11 and 5/11 (x2＝21.93,P＜0.05).At the end of 30th week after treatment,ESR,CRP and CDAI of IFX treatment group ((11.4±7.5) mm/1 h,(13.2±6.6) mg/L and 125.4±26.9) were all significantly lower than those on admission day ((31.3±5.7) mm/1 h,(45.3±7.6) mg/L and 240.5±35.2) (t=2.650,3.022,2.719,all P＜0.05).No serious side effects were observed in IFX treatment group and conventional therapy group during the treatment period.Conclusion For CD patients with incomplete intestinal obstruction,on the basis of conventional therapy,the addition of IFX could achieved better efficacy than conventional therapy alone.
