Objective:To investigate the effects of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor on expressions of CC chemokine receptor 2(CCR2) mRNA and protein in cultured human THP-1 cell lines.Methods:THP-1 cell was stimulated by GM-CSF of different concentrations and time intervals.The mRNA expression of CCR2 was tested by RT-PCR,The protein expression of CCR2 was analyzed by Western blotting.Results:RT-PCR and Western blotting showed that THP-1 cell in control group expressed a low-level of CCR2 mRNA and protein.After stimulated by GM-CSF,the expression of CCR2 mRNA and protein increased in a concentration-and time-dependent manner.Conclusion:GM-CSF could stimulate THP-1 cell to express CCR2 mRNA and protein,in an concentration-and time-dependent manner.

In recent years,the prognosis and survival quality of tumour patient would be improved greatly through cell immunotherapy,which becomes the priority scientific research.Immunoeytes can kill the tumour cell directly or through immunoregulation.CD4CD8 double-negative T cells is a newly found subset of T cells whose SUlface express neither CD4 nor CD8.This article mainly introduces the advancement of one subet of DNT cell,DN Tregs,in tumor.

Objective To investigate the effects of lipid microspheres prostaglandin E1(Lipo PGE1) on subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).Methods Ninty-three patients with SAH were randomly divided into control group(treated with nomal drugs) and Lipo PGE1 treatment group(treated with nomal drugs and Lipo PGE1).Changes in neuroimaging,biochemical indexes and incidence of cerebral vasospasm were measured. Results A lower incidence rate of cerebral vasospasm was observed in Lipo PGE1 treatment group(P0.05).The levels of vWF and GMP-140 were significant lower in the Lipo PGE1 treatment group than those in the control group after treatment for 3 and 7 d(P

Objective To investigate the changes of somatosensory evoked potential(SEP)in subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)and in-fluence from lipid microspheres prostaglandin E1(Lipo PGE1). Methods Ninty-three patients with SAH were randomly divided into control group(treated with nomal drugs) and Lipo PGE1 treatment group(treated with nomal drugs and Lipo PGE1).Clinical outcomes and changes of SEP before and after the treatment were observed. Results After the treatment,the latency of N20 wave was prolonged in both groups(P

Objective To express human single-chain antibody against amyloid?peptide 40 in pichia pastoris for passive immuniza- tion to Alzheimer's disease patients.Methods Human single-chain antibody gene from a phage display library was mutated to obliterate BamHI site and cloned into pAO815 plasmid for pT-scFvA?40 construction which was identified by PCR amplification and endonuclease digestion.Vector pT-scFvA?40 was cut by EcoRI and NotI endonucleases and the antibody gene was cloned into pPICgK plasmid to con- struct pPIC9K-scFvA?40 expression vector which was confirmed by gene sequencing.Linearized pPIC9K-scFvA?40 was used to trans- form pichia pastoris GS115 and the recombinant was induced by 0.5% methanol to express human single - chain antibody against amyloid?peptide 40.Results Gene sequencing confirmed pPIC9K-scFvA?40 orientation.Recombinants were obtained by linearized pPICgK - scFvA?40 transformation.After inducing with 0.5% methanol,the recombinant secreted proteins with 33 kD size.Conclusions Expression vector pPIC9K-scFvA?40 was constructed successfully.Human single-chain antibody against amyloid?peptide 40 was recombinantly expressed in pichia pastoris.

By tracing of ~(75)Se-Na_2SeO_3 incubating and irrigating of the isolated myocardial slices of rats, the numeric relationship between the free selenics in the serum and the serum sdenics, the sodium sdenite doses injected were observed; the absorption of the frce selenics and the serum selenics was compared; the setenics metabolic rate and quantities of the myocardial tissue in different duration after injecting of selcnite, the effect of selenics concentration to the participating were calculated, It is suggested that there is a very close relationship between the free selenics and the selenium metabolism in the myocardium; the ratio betwen the values of the free selenics and the serum selenics may become a stable indicator of the selenium metabolism; the free selenics in the serum may be where the important mediates of selenium metabolism are.

Objective To explore the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) in the metastasis of lung cancer.Methods The expression of ICAM-1 in the tissue and the serum ICAM-1(sICAM-1) level in the 52 cases of primary lung cancer were detected with immunohistochemical staining method(SP) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),with 20 cases of adjacent non-cancerous tissue as the control.Results The positive rate of ICAM-1 expression in lung cancer was significantly higher than that of adjacent non-cancerous tissue.The expression of ICAM-1 in the cases with lymph node metastasis was higher than that of no lymph node metastasis.The expression of ICAM-1 in stage III+IV was higher than that of stage I+II,and that in adenocarcinoma was higher than that of squamous cell carcinoma.The level of sICAM-1 in patients with lymph node metastasis was higher than that without lymph node metastasis.The sICAM-1 level in patients of adenocarcinoma was higher than that of squamous cell carcinoma,and that in patients with positive expression of ICAM-1 in tissue was higher than that of negative expression of ICAM-1.Conclusion The expression of ICAM-1 may be associated with the metastasis in lung cancer.The sICAM-1 level reflects the expression of ICAM-1 in tissue and may be used as a tumor marker of metastasis and prognosis in lung cancer.

Objective To prepare a targeted ultrasound micro bubble,which carried the HSV-TK gene,and investigate the in vitro target searching ability of the micro bubbles and inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 cells.Methods Ultrasonic micro bubbles were prepared by mechanical vibration method,construction of targeted HSV-TK ultrasound micro bubbles by biotin affinity bridge construction.To detect the general characteristics of ultrasound micro bubbles,and to test its effect on the proliferation of HepG2 cells in vitro.Results HSV-TK targeted ultrasound microbubbles more gathered on the surface of HepG2 cells,through detection of PCNA and MTT,it was found that the proliferation of gene targeting microbubble group was obviously decreased,cell apoptosis increased significantly,Cells invade experiments showed that the number of cells in genetic microbubble group (22.18 ± 2.01) decreased significantly compared with the control group and the nontargeted group,can effectively inhibit the proliferation and invasive ability of HepG2 cells.Conclusion Targeted ultrasound microbubble carrying target gene have better inhibitory effect on HepG2 cells in vitro.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the eosinophil (Eos) percentage and levels of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in induced sputum and the severity of late onset asthma(LOA) and differential diagnosis. Methods Fifty-four patients with LOA were selected. The percentage of eosinophil and levels of ECP were measured by Wrigbt′s stain and immuno-CAP system respectively. The lung function was also evaluated. The same indexes were measured in 25 elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 10 healthy elderly subjects as control. Results The percentage of Eos and levels of ECP in induced sputum in patients with LOA were significantly and negatively correlated with FEV_1/FVC (r=-0.68,-0.61, respectively, P
