Chinese Journal of AIDS & STD 2006;0(04):-
Antiretroviral therapy(ART)has been started in an increasingly earlier period in clinical practice.However,owing to the failure of immunological reconstitution or maintenance of latent HIV-1 reservoir in present antiviral treatment,interleukin-2(IL-2)is widely used as an adjuvant to ART with a view to intensifying immunological reconstitution and to activating latent HIV-1 infections.Some conclusions could be drawn as follows,1)IL-2 can extend the half-life of CD+4 T cells and increase the number of CD+4 T cells.2)Compared with ART alone,IL-2 and HAART combination can not reduce HIV-1 related opportunistic infection or death.IL-2 clinical usage is mainly focused on purging HIV-1 reservoir.3)IL-2 combined with ART could increase out flow rate of HIV-1 latent reservoir to reduce HIV-1 infected quiescent memory cells in peripheral circulation even to an undetectable level.4)IL-2 is supposed to be used periodically and for a long period of time.

[Objective]To evaluate the effect of continuous dynamic pressure stress on experimental humeral fracture healing and to explore the role of COX-2 /PGE2 /cAMP signaling pathway in healing promotion induced by the special biomechanical condition.[Method]A total of 120 New Zealand rabbits were divided randomly into three groups: Group A,unilateral humeral fracture was fixed with shape memory connector(SMC),producing axial continuous dynamic pressure stress on fracture gap.Group B,fixed with 4-hole DCP,and Group C,fixed with SMC and gavaged with aqueous suspensions of celecoxib(3 mg/kg/day) after fracture.COX-1 and COX-2 mRNA expressions in fracture gap were determined by real-time RT-PCR at 0,3,7,14,21,28 and 56 days after operation,as well as the contents of PGE2 and cAMP were measured by radioimmunoassay(RIA).Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase(B-ALP) activity was determined by measuring p-nitrophenol and osteocalcin concentrations were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) for serial collected blood samples.Callus specimens fixed by formalin were used for histopathological examination.[Result]The COX-2 mRNA levels normalized with GAPDH mRNA as well as the contents of PGE2 and cAMP showed significant difference along with the 56-day period and also between the two internal fixations.Histopathological observation and determination of serum biochemical markers of bone formation revealed that the endochondral bone formation and the callus remodelling took place earlier in Group A than in Group B.The accelerated healing process and increased serum values of the bone formation markers induced by continuous dynamic pressure stress of SMC were inhibited by celecoxib,a specific COX-2 inhibitor.[Conclusion]The persistent dynamic longitudinal pressure stress produced by SMC contributed to endochondral bone formation and callus remodelling,resulting in an acceleration of fracture healing,which was considered to be closely correlated with the COX-2/PGE2/cAMP signal transduction pathway.

BACKGROUND: Immunonutrition therapy can increase the synthesis of proteins with shorten half-life, regulate the local and whole body cytokines production, make the intestinal structure and functional integrity, up-regulate the immunity-inhibiting after operation through the improvement of cellular immune function. It has been proved that the appropriate nutritional therapy during perioperative period can improve the patients' immune function; however, enteral immunonutrition (EIN) in patients undergoing liver transplantation is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of EIN therapy during liver transplantation.METHODS: Eighty-four patients undertaking liver transplantation were randomly divided into two groups, namely EIN group and regular enteral nutrition (EN) group (given EIN and common EN respectively). The liver function, cellular immunity, humoral immunity, infection and the incidence of rejection were monitored in order to compare the therapeutic efficacy of two kinds of nutrition therapies. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The serum prealbumin and cholinesterase levels were impressively higher in the EIN group at 1 day before operation than before nutritional therapy. The expressions of CD3+ and CD4+ were significantly higher in the EIN group than the EN group at 1 day before operation (P < 0.05). The recovery of cell immunity was delayed 1 week in the EN group as compared with the EIN group; at 1-28 days after operation, IgA level was higher in the EIN group than in the EN group (P < 0.05). No increase in the incidence of infections occurred in the two groups. The results suggest that the EIN can improve the cell immunity and humoral immunity with a better effect than the EN. The EIN therapy is necessary for the rehabilitation of patients undergoing liver transplantation at the perioperative stage.

Objective To observe the effects of electroacupuncture at Ganshu (BL18) and Zusanli (ST36) on depression state and gastrointestinal motility and relevant protein expressions in brain of rats with stress-induced depressive functional dyspepsia. Methods Totally 48 Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal, model, electroacupuncture (EA) and sham-operation group, with 12 rats in each group. Depressive functional dyspepsia model was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress protocols. From day 15 to day 28, the EA group was given electroacupuncture at BL18 and ST36, and the sham-operation group was stimulated by electroacupuncture at 1/3 and 2/3 of the tail. Body weight test, open field test and sucrose preference test were measured on day 0, day 14 and day 28. After 14-day administration, gastric residual volume and intestinal propulsion rate of semisolid paste were detected. The expression of βCaMK inⅡ lateral habenulas and BDNF in hippocampus were measured by Western blot. Results Compared with the normal group, the weight, the sucrose preference rate, the behavior score, the small intestinal propulsion rate of semisolid paste and the expression of BDNF in hippocampus decreased significantly both in the model group and sham-operation group (P<0.01), and the gastric residual volume of semisolid paste and the expression of βCaMK inⅡ lateral habenulas increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the weight, the sucrose preference rate, the behavior score, the small intestinal propulsion rate of semisolid paste and the expression of BDNF in hippocampus increased significantly in EA group (P<0.01), and the gastric residual volume of semisolid paste and the expression of βCaMK inⅡ lateral habenulas decreased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the sham-operation group, the expression of βCaMKⅡ in lateral habenulas decreased significantly, the expression of BDNF in hippocampus increased significantly in EA group (P<0.01). Conclusion Electroacupuncture at Ganshu (BL18) and Zusanli (ST36) can improve depression and gastrointestinal motility of rats with depressive functional dyspepsia, which may be related to the inhibition of βCaMK inⅡ lateral habenulas and the activation of BDNF in hippocampus dyspepsia.
