Objective To observe the effects of Jieyu-Chufan capsule(JCC) on the behavior and the monoamine neurotransmitter content of cerebral in depression mouse model and explore its mechanism. Methods The ICR male mouse were randomly divided into seven groups according to their weights(the model group, the low, middle and high doses group, Baiyoujie group, the amitriptyline group, the normal control group). The low, middle and high doses group were given JCC with 1.250, 2.500, 5.000 g/kg separately by intragastric administration. Baiyoujie group was given 0.014 g/kg Baiyoujie by gavage. The amitriptyline group was given 0.050 g/kg amitriptyline by gavage. The model group and the normal control group received the same volume of distilled water intragastrically. The drugs were administrated once a day. The brepharoptosis and movement conditions of mouse were observed after 22 days. The monoamine neurotransmitter content of each group was measured after 25 days. Results Compared to the model group, the number of mouse with brepharoptosis decreased in the high dose group after 1, 2, 6 hour with reserpine injection (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the number of mouse came out from the circle increased after 4 hours with reserpine injection (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the content of NA (880.45 ± 428.81 ng/g, 875.98 ± 449.33 ng/g vs. 299.92 ± 267.08 ng/g) and DA (2 305.99 ± 530.37 ng/g, 2 169.99 ± 278.19 ng/g vs. 1 439.34 ± 357.33 ng/g) in the middle and high dose group increased (P<0.01);the content of 5-HT (781.43 ± 135.10 ng/g vs. 492.01 ± 192.80 ng/g) in the middle group increased (P<0.01). Conclusions JCC showed an antidepression influence in depression mouse model induced by reserpine. The mechanism may be related to regulating the level of monoamine neurotransmitter in the nervous centralis .

Objective:To investigate the changes in peripheral blood and liver-infiltrating natural killer-like B (NKB) cells in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to assess the influence of IL-18 on NKB cells in vitro and the underlying mechanism. Methods:Forty-three HCC patients and 21 normal controls (NC) were enrolled in the study. Peripheral blood samples were collected to isolate plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Intrahepatic lymphocytes (IHL) were isolated from tumor tissues and para-tumor tissues obtained from 16 HCC patients who received surgery. IL-12, IL-18 and IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP) levels in plasma were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The percentages of CD3 -NKp46 + CD19 + NKB cells and IL-18 + NKB cells in PBMC and IHL were analyzed by flow cytometry. Changes in the percentages of NKB cells and IL-18 + NKB cells were measured after stimulating PBMC and IHL with recombinant human IL-18 (1 ng/ml and 10 ng/ml). Changes in IL-18BP levels in the culture supernatants and phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in NKB cells were also assessed. Student′s t test, one-way analysis of variance or LSD-t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:There was no significant difference in plasma IL-12 level between HCC patients and NC ( P=0.245). Compared with NC, HCC patients had decreased IL-18 level in plasma [(224.3±58.89) pg/ml vs (327.0±52.27) pg/ml, P<0.000 1], but increased IL-18BP level [(4.421±0.97) ng/ml vs (0.92±0.18) ng/ml, P<0.000 1]. The percentages of peripheral blood NKB cells and IL-18 + NKB cells were lower in HCC patients than in NC [(2.68±1.23)% vs (8.88±2.95)% and (54.42±12.60)% vs (69.74±12.65)%, both P<0.000 1]. The percentage of NKB cells in IHL was reduced in tumor tissues as compared with that in para-tumor tissues [(2.89±0.86)% vs (4.66±1.17)%, P<0.000 1]. Moreover, the percentage of IL-18 + NKB cell was also down-regulated in tumor tissues as compared with that in para-tumor tissues [(51.50±13.18)% vs (62.13±9.24)%, P=0.013]. Recombinant human IL-18 stimulation reduced the IL-18BP level in the culture supernatants ( P<0.05). IL-18 stimulation at 1 ng/ml did not affect NKB cell percentage, IL-18 + NKB cell percentage or NF-κB phosphorylation in NKB cells from PBMC or IHL ( P>0.05), while 10 ng/ml of IL-18 not only elevated NKB cell percentage and IL-18+ NKB cell percentage, but also promoted NF-κB phosphorylation in NKB cells ( P<0.01). Conclusions:In vitro stimulation with high concentration of IL-18 might promote NF-κB phosphorylation by inhibition of IL-18BP expression. This process might play a positive feedback role to induce the activation of NKB cells and IL-18 secretion.

Objective To analyze the values of serum tumor necrosis factor-α stimulated gene 6 protein (TSG-6) and type ⅩⅥ collagen (col-16) in predicting the prognosis of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Methods A total of 160 patients with UC were enrolled as UC group, another 160 volunteers were selected as control group, and the levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 were compared between the two groups. According to the modified Mayo scoring criteria, patients in the UC group were divided into mild group (n=63), moderate group (n=52), and severe group (n=45), and the levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 were compared among the three groups. Based on the colonoscopy follow-up results, patients in the UC group were divided into good prognosis group (n=121) and poor prognosis group (n=39), and the levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 were compared between the two groups. Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlations of serum TSG-6 and col-16 with the modified Mayo score. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of serum TSG-6 and col-16 on the prognosis of patients in the UC group. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the values of serum TSG-6 and col-16 in predicting the prognosis of patients in the UC group. Results The levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 in the UC group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.01). The levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 in the moderate and severe groups were significantly higher than those in the mild group, and the levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 in the severe group were significantly higher than those in the moderate group (P < 0.01). The levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group (P < 0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showedthat serum TSG-6 and col-16 were positively correlated with the modified Mayo score (r=0.691, P < 0.05; r=0.635, P < 0.05). Logistic analysis results showed that serum TSG-6 and col-16 were risk factors for poor prognosis (P < 0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the curve for predicting poor prognosis in patients with UC were 0.773 and 0.765 for serum TSG-6 and col-16, respectively. Conclusion The levels of serum TSG-6 and col-16 are abnormally elevated in patients with UC, and there is a certain correlation of the two indexes with the severity and prognosis of disease, and the two indexes can be used as predictors of poor prognosis.

To analyze the clinical data of 2 neonates with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). The rashes appeared in both cases shortly after birth.Case 1 had both rashes and neonatal sepsis, and no other tissues and organs were involved.After anti-infective treatment, the rashes gradually disappeared.Case 2 had secondary pneumonia, abnormal coagulation function and gastrointestinal bleeding.Both cases were positive for CD1a and S-100 by immunohistochemical staining of skin biopsy, and they were diagnosed as multi system-LCH.The early diagnosis of LCH is particularly important.The detection methods of skin or lymph node biopsy like immunohistochemistry, need to be performed as early as possible.Because the course of the disease is not clear, a close monitoring and follow-up are needed.
