Objective To investigate the clinical significance of dynamic changes of CD4~+ CD25~+ regulatory T cells(Treg)in patients subject to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplanta- tion(alIo-HSCT).Methods Forty-five patients received allo-HSCT.The graft-vesus-host disease (GVHD)was prevented by cyclosporine A and short-term MTX regimen in 31 patients.Fourteen of all the patients received Zenapox(CD25MAb)at the day of transplantation and day 4 after transplan- tation.The levels of Treg in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry from 45 patients at 2nd,4th,8th and 12th week after allo-HSCT and the time of aGVHD development,respectively.Re- suits Anti-CD25 could suppress the peripheral blood levels of Treg significantly.The Treg levels were significantly higher in patients with grade 0-1 aGVHD than those with 2-4 aGVHD at 8th and 12th week after transplantation.Among patients with 2-4 aGVHD,Treg levels were significantly low- er after development of aGVHD than before.Conclusions Treg are important for the aGVHD preven- tion and can be a useful clinical surveillant index for the development of aGVHD.It can significantly decrease the levels of Treg in the peripheral blood with anti-CD25.

AIM: To elucidate the in vivo mechanisms of the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCS) in injuried arteries. METHODS: A VSMCS proliferative model was constructed by injury of rabbit iliac arteries with balloon catheters and a probe designed for rabbit platelet-derived growth factor B chain (PDGF-B ) mRNA was used to detect the expression of it by intimal VSMCS on the vascular cross sections using an in situ hybridization technique at the indicated times. The relation of this expression to the proliferation of VSMCS by their expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and vascular intimal areas were estimated. RESULTS: The expression of PDGF-B mRNA of intimal VSMCS was increased when calculating the intimal PDGF-B mRNA positive cells per millimetre area at ?400 magnification with average numbers of 31.93?14.64 in 1 week group, 26 50?9 25 in 2 weeks group and 24 85?13 65 in 4 weeks group. This was in accordance with the expression of PCNA by VSMCS and the increase of intimal areas. CONCLUSION: The local production of PDGF-B by VSMCS via an autocrine mechanism is responsible for the continuous proliferation of these cells and formation of neointima after the injury. The probe designed is very useful for detecting rabbit PDGF-B mRNA.

BACKGROUND:Healthy human umbilical cord jel y is a mucous connective tissue without vessels and has been used in eye plastic operation because of its elasticity and toughness. It contains lysozyme, placental globulin, hyaluronic acid enzyme, AMP antibody and complement, and also contains a lot of mesenchymal stem cells, so it is not prone to infection and rejection. OBJECTIVE:To observe the histocompatibility and histopathological changes of human umbilical cord jel y as a tarsal substitute transplanted for eyelid reconstruction in guinea pigs. METHODS:The mucous connective tissue of healthy neonate umbilical cord jel y was made into tissue blocks at even thickness. Models of tarsal defects were established in guinea pigs, and then the mucous connective tissue of healthy neonate umbilical cord jel y was implanted. Samples of implanted materials were col ected for histological examination at 1, 2, 3 weeks postoperation under light microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no obvious rejection, infection and eyelid deformation observed, the corneas of al the animals were clear, corneal epithelial shedding did not occur, and the eyelid could move normal y. One week after implantation, there was no infection and rejection on the conjunctiva and the incision of the eyelid, the eyelid could move normal y, and partial inflammatory cells were observed between the human umbilical cord jel y and the muscle of the eyelid with microscopy. Two weeks after implantation, there was no infection and rejection on the conjunctiva and the incision of the eyelid, the cornea was clear, the eyelid and eye could move normal y, and no symblepharon occurred;umbilical cord jel y showed the tendency of absorption, and the inflammatory cells were reduced at 2 weeks after implantation. Three weeks after implantation, the incision of the conjunctiva healed wel , the cornea was clear;there was no difference in the eyelid form and movement between the two eyes;the umbilical cord jel y was absorbed partial y, normal fibrous tissues formed and there were no inflammatory cells. With low immunogenicity, human umbilical cord jel y can guide the growth of new col agen and serve as an ideal tarsal substitute.
