Objective:To investigate the association of thyrotropin receptor antibodies(TRAb) with the sensitivity to glucocorticoid therapy in Graves′s ophthalmopathy(GO) patients.Methods:Total 37 subjects with active GO were treated with prednisone. According to the relieve degree and clinical activity of their eye symptoms post-steroid treatment, patients were grouped into sensitive group(S) and non-sensitive group(NS). TRAb positive rate and antibody titer of the two groups were compared.Results:In S group( n=28 ), the positive rate and titre of TRAb were 76.53% and (12.54?5.62) U/L, respectively; The positive rate and titre of TRAb post-treatment were 22.18% and (7.82?4.91) U/L, respectively, were significant lower than data prior treatment. In NS group( n=9 ), the positive rate and titre of TRAb prior treatment were 67.24% and (11.07?4.63) U/L, respectively; The positive rate and titre of TRAb post-treatment were 59.74% and (10.81?5.96) U/L, there was no significant difference with data prior treatment. Prior treatment, there was no significant difference of TRAb titres between the two groups. Post-treatment, TRAb titres in NS group were significant higher than in S group.Conclusion:The variations of TRAb level were closely correlated with the sensitivity to glucocorticoid therapy in GO patients. Serum TRAb level can be used as a major index to evaluate therapeutic sensitivity to glucocorticoid therapy in GO.

Objective: To evaluate the superiority in diagnosing DVT between venography and duplex ultrasound, and the effectiveness of C-reactive protein (CRP) as a biomarker. Methods: Firstly,the iliac - femoral vein of the dog left hind leg was isolated,and then, the thrombosis model was established by infusing the thrombin after breaking endangium.The recanalization of thrombosis was assessed by duplex ultrasound and venography, and the expression of serum hsCRP was also examined. From 2006 to 2008, 77 patients with acute DVT proximal to the knee joint were admitted. The interval between the onset of DVT and admission was 1-21 days. They were treated mainly with urokinase and low molecular weight heparin for 2 weeks. The assessment of each patient including clinical manifestation, venography, duplex ultrasound and serum highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were performed immediately after admission and 4 weeks after discharge. Results: After medical therapy for 2 weeks, the clinical features prominently subsided in 49 patients, improved in 23 and didn’t ameliorate in 5.4 weeks after discharge, venography showed clot regression in 15 patients; while in the remaining 62 patients the occluded venous lumen were not visualized, duplex ultrasound showed partial lysis of the thrombosis. At admission, the hsCRP was 28.91?29.4mg/L, and it dropped to 8.13?12.7mg/L at 4 weeks after discharge. Conclusion:Duplex ultrasound was effective to assess DVT. The hsCRP was positively related to the severity of DVT.

Methods The T lymph subgroup and NK (CD3 -/CD16+56 +) cells in patients’ peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of IL 2, IFN? mRNA were analyzed by RT PCR. Results CD3 +, CD4 + and CD4/CD8 in patients with CPHD were significantly lower than those in the control, while CD8 + higher ( P

Objective To construct lentivirus vectors carrying 16 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression cassettes targeting histone acetyltransferases and provide a powerful research approach to explore the mechanism of epigenetic genes in regulating hepatitis B virus (HBV).Methods Following the rule of short shRNA primer design,eight-pair primers (A ~ H )for each gene,which had stable interfering efficiency,were designed.The annealed primers were connected to the empty lentiviral vectors of shRNA for transformation.In order to confirm the positive clones,clones were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR ).Then, qualified plasmids were verified by enzyme digestion technology.Four shRNA lentivirus plasmids against the same gene were mixed to build lentivirus respectively.After the virus transfected into 293T cells for 48 and 72 hours,supernatants were collected to infect HepG2.2.15 cells.The percentage of fluorescent cells were observed and assessed by microscope 72 hours after infection.Results One hundred and twenty-eight lentiviral vectors of RNA interference (RNAi)library were constructed against 16 histone acetyltransferases and more than 80% of HepG2.2.15 cells were infected with lentivirus 72 hours after infection.Conclusions Sixteen shRNA lentivirus vectors against histone acetyltransferase are successfully constructed.Thus,a solid foundation for the study of the effect of human histone deacetylase on HBV replication is established.

ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory effects of Ginkgolide B on the biological characteristics of brain T cells and their interactions with glial cells during the recovery phase of ischemic stroke in mice. Methods36 adult C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to three groups: sham-operated group (Sham group), control group (PBS group), and Ginkgolide B treatment group (GB group). The Sham group underwent only sham surgeries, whereas the PBS and GB groups were subjected to a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model using the filament method, followed by intranasal administration of an equivalent volume of either PBS or Ginkgolide B solution for 14 days post-injury. Neurological function changes were evaluated in all three groups using the rotarod test and a neurological scoring system. On day 15, single-cell sequencing was performed on fresh tissues from the brain injury areas, surrounding cortex, corpus callosum, and striatum of mice in the PBS and GB group to assess the biological characteristics of T cells and their subpopulations, and further explore the interactions and mechanisms among T cells, microglia, and oligodendrocytes. ResultsCompared with the Sham group, both PBS and GB group exhibited significant improvements in neurological scores and reduced pre-fall motor durations (P < 0.001). Compared with the PBS group, the GB group showed a downward trend in neurological scores and an upward trend in pre-fall motor durations on days 5, 10, and 15 post-ischemic brain injury, with a significant increase in pre-fall motor duration on day 15 (P < 0.05). Compared with the PBS group, the GB group exhibited a significant increase in T cell proliferative activity in the brain 15 days post brain injury (P < 0.05). The number of proliferative T cells and the levels of lipid metabolism were significantly elevated (P < 0.05), and there was a significant increase in extracellular matrix remodeling in all T cells (P < 0.05). Additionally, the interactions between T cells and both microglia and oligodendrocytes, as well as among the microglia themselves and between microglia and oligodendrocytes, were significantly enhanced in the GB group. This was primarily evident in the strengthened interactions between CD74 and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), as well as colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) and colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF1) (P < 0.05). However, the inflammatory levels of T cells showed no significant differences compared with the PBS group. ConclusionA mouse model of ischemic stroke can be successfully established by MCAO operation. Ginkgolide B may promote neurological recovery post-brain injury in mice by modulating the biological characteristics of T cells within the brain and their interactions with glial cells.
