Objective To investigate the effect of tacrolimus on Langerhans cell migration in order to understand the therapeutic mechanism of tacrolimus. Methods C57BL/6 mouse injected with different doses of tacrolimus was stimulated by FITC at ear back. After twelve hours, the number of Langerhans cells which took antigen and migrated to lymph nodes was measured by flow cytometry. The number of Langerhans cells which took antigen and resided in epidermis was examined by immunohistochemical staining. Results After injection with tacrolimus, the number of Langerhans cells which took antigen and migrated to lymph nodes was reduced, especially at 12 hours before stimulation by FITC. The reduction was significantly different between the high dose and low dose injection groups. However,the number of Langerhans cells residing in epidermis was significantly higher in tacrolimus injection group than that in the control. Conclusions Tacrolimus, a new kind of immunosuppressive drug,may probably suppress Langerhans cell migration and therefore inhibit immune response in some diseases.

OBJECTIVE:To compare anesthesia effects of 3 anesthesia methods,to investigate anesthesia improvement method for bronch fiber oscope. METHODS:315 patients undergoing bronch fiber oscope were randomly divided into group A(106 cas-es),group B(104 cases)and group C(105 cases). Group A was treated with traditional bronch fiber oscope lidocaine atomization local anesthesia,group B was treated with modified bronch fiber oscope pethidine combined with lidocaine atomization local anes-thesia and group C was treated with three-limb tube connected with laryngeal mask and target-controlled propofol and remifentanil general anesthesia. SaO2,SBP,DBP,heart rate,breathing rate,excellent anesthesia rate,compliance rate,the rate of bodymove-ment and choking,pain recalling rate were compared among 3 groups before and during examination,and ADR was observed. RE-SULTS:Compared with before examination,SaO2 of group A was decreased significantly during examination,with statistical sig-nificance(P<0.05);that of group B and C had no obvious change before and during examination. Blood pressure,heart rate and breathing rate of 3 groups had no obvious change before and during examination. The excellent anesthesia rate and compliance rate of group A were significantly lower than those of group B and C,but the rate of bodymovement cough and pain recalling rate were significantly higher than group B and C,with statistical significantly(P<0.05). The excellent anesthesia rate and compliance rate of group B were significantly lower than those of group C,but the rate of bodymovement cough and pain recalling rate were signifi-cantly higher than group C,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No ADR was found in 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Modified bronchoscope atomization local anesthesia and modified painless bronchoscope are better than traditional bronch fiber oscope atomi-zation local anesthesia in anesthesia effect,safety,degree of comfort and acceptability. Modified bronchoscope atomization local an-esthesia was best but most expensive,so these methods can be chosen according to patient’s condition.

OBJECTIVETo observe improved effects of Jingjin acupuncture on fine activity of hemiplegic hand in recovery period of stroke.
METHODSFifty cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 25 cases in each one. Regular western medicine treatment, rehabilitation training and regular acupuncture (in which Shuigou (GV 26), Baihui (GV 20), Neiguan (PC 6), etc. were selected) were applied in both groups. Additionally, muscles in palm side of affected hand, dorsal metacarpophalangeal joints and proximal interphalangeal joints were treated with acupuncture in the observation group, once every other day and electroacupuncture was applied when arrival of qi was acquired. Baxie (EX-UE 9) in the affected hand were needled in the control group, and electroacupuncture was added when arrival of qi was acquired. Ten days of treatment was considered a treatment course, and after two courses Lindmark score, Brunnstrom movement function grade, joint range of hand and Barthel index (BI) were observed in two groups.
RESULTSCompared before the treatment, the Lindmark score in two groups were both improved after the treatment (both P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the motor coordination ability, sensory function and total score of Lindmark in observation group were obviously improved (differences before and after treatment: 8.24 +/- 3.07 vs 6.84 +/- 2.43, 3.52 +/- 2.33 vs 2.16 +/- 2.12, 11.76 +/- 3.55 vs 9.00 +/- 3.62, all P < 0.05). The Brunnstrom movement function grade was significantly improved in both groups after treatment (both P < 0.01), which was more obvious in the observation group (P < 0.05). The joint range of hemiplegic hand was improved in both groups after treatment (both P < 0.01), which was more obvious in the observation group [differences before and after treatment: (25.35 +/- 10.91) degrees vs (18.65 +/- 7.86) degrees, p < 0.05]. The score of BI was also significantly improved after treatment in two groups (both P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe Jingjin acupuncture could effectively improve fine activity of hemiplegic hand in recovery period of stroke prove daily life ability.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of tacrolimus on the migration of Langerhans′ cells. Methods The concentration of MCP-1 in the cultured supernatants of HaCaT cell treated with tacrolimus was determined by ELISA. The expression level of MCP-1 mRNA in HaCaT cell treated with tacrolimus was studied by RT-PCR method. Results The concentration of MCP-1 in HaCaT cell treated with 625 ~ 5 000 ng/mL of tacrolimus was significantly decreased. The expression level of MCP-1 mRNA was also markedly decreased. Conclusions Tacrolimus may probably decrease the expression of MCP-1 in keratinocytes and suppress the chemotactic ability of Langerhans′ cells precursor and Langerhans′ cells, thus inhibiting or diminishing certain local immunoreaction.

Objective To investigate the expression of IL-8 and CXCR2 on keratinocytes from psoriatic lesions and their roles on clinical and pathologic manifestations. Methods The chemotaxis of psoriatic lesional keratinocytes was detected by micropore loculus test. The concentration of IL-8 was determined in the cultured supernatants of psoriatic keratinocytes by ELISA. The expression of CXCR2 on keratinocytes from affected skin was tested by flow cytometry. Results The chemotaxis for neutrophils by the cultured supernatants of psoriatic lesional keratinocytes was significantly stronger than that by controls. The concentration of IL-8 in the cultured supernatants of psoriatic lesional keratinocytes was also increased. The expression of CXCR2 on psoriatic keratinocytes was significantly increased. Conclusions The psoriatic epidermal hyperproliferation may be correlated with up regulation of IL-8 production and CXCR2 expression on psoriatic keratinocytes. At the same time, the psoriatic inflammation may be partly related to the increase of secretion of IL-8, which has chemotactic capacity, by keratinocytes. IL-8 and CXCR2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.
