Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2014;37(7):40-42,45
Objective To explore the role of halofuginone in immune regulation,observe the effects of halofuginone on maturation of dendritic cells and immune tolerance during homograft heart transplantation of rats,in order to provide new ways and means to treat transplantation tolerance and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods Rat bone marrow derived dendritic cells were isolated and the effects of halofuginone in LPS-treated DCs were investigated by flow cytometry;heart transplantation model of rats were established and the effect of halofuginone stimulated dendritic cells in the immune tolerance by pathological analysis and mixed lymphocyte reaction were observed.Results Flow cytometry results show that the expression of cell surface CD80 CD86,OX62 antigens were not high in control group,their expression increased significantly when stimulated by LPS for 24h,and decreased when stimulated by both Changshan ketone and LPS for 24h,and even lower than their expression levels in blank group,which showed that Changshan ketone has the ability to inhibit the maturation of dendritic cells induced by LPS.In rat heart transplantation model,dendritic cells stimulated with Changshan were injected into recipient rats in vivo,and receptor of rat transplantation rejection decreased significantly,which showed that dendritic cells stimulated with Changshan ketone may be used as a new method for cell therapy in treatment of transplant rejection.Conclusion This study systematically observes that halofuginone can inhibit the maturation of rat bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and lymphocyte proliferation for the first time in vivo and in vitro.

Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2016;(2):112-115
Objective To find out the clinical characteristics related to neonate food allergy.Methods Ten subjects were diagnosed as neonate food allergy at the Third Hospital of Peking University from January 201 3 to January 201 5.The following clinical data:the gestational age,genter,age of onset,feeding,clinical manifestations,white blood cell count,eosinophilic granulocyte count,C -reactive protein(CRP),routine stool test and occult blood test,blood spe-cific IgE of cow′s milk and clinical outcomes were investigated.Results There were 4 term infants,and 6 preterm in-fants,including 2 very -preterm subjects.The gender ratio between male and female cases was 73.The age of onset from 1 day after birth to 43 days after birth,clinical investigation of neonate food allergy in 1 0 cases,and the average time was 20.3 d,the median age was 1 8.5 d,and the SD was 1 3.38 d.Their rectified gestational ages were from 30 to 37 weeks in 6 cases at onset.Four infants received breast feeding,3 infants received formula milk feeding,and the other 3 infants received mixed feeding.At onset,the symptoms were almost involved in the digestive system.The white blood cell counts of lab test were almost normal in 1 0 subjects.And eosinophilic granulocytes were elevated in 8 subjects.CRP elevated in 1 case,and those of the other 9 subjects were normal.The cow′s milk specific IgE antibody was elevated in 1 subject,and that of the other 9 subjects was normal.Two subjects were performed opened food challenge test and the finding were positive.Conclusions Both the term infants and the preterm infants can have food allergy,but the age of onset ranged widely.Breast feeding infants can also be attacked.The symptoms of the digestive tract were the main clinical manifestations of such neonates.The open -food challenge test is beneficial to diagnose but difficult to practice in the neonates.Dietetic treatment is the only method can therapy the disease.And mostly the clinical outcomes are desirable.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the combination detection of blood lactic acid,B-type brain natri-uretic peptide(BNP)and homocysteine(Hcy)in elderly acute cerebral infarction.Methods The arterial and venous blood during a-cute onset stage,at 24,48,72 h after thrombolysis and at 12 h after fasting in 85 cases of acute cerebral infarction was collected for detecting blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy,performing the dynamic monitoring analysis and the comparative observation with the healthy control group.Results The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels in the acute onset stage group and the recovery group were significantly increased compared with the healthy control group(P <0.05).The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels during the onset stage in the acute cerebral infarction group were(6.47 ±3.92)mmol/L,(100.52 ±48.96 )pg/mL and(48.96 ±15.13 )μmol/L respectively,which were significantly higher than those at 48,72 h of postoperative recovery,the differences between them were statistically significant(P <0.05).The blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy levels during postoperative convalescence in the cere-bral infarction group were gradually decreased and declined to the minimal level until postoperative 72 h,which were(2.16±1.83) mmol/L,(33.61±10.42)pg/mL and(18.87±8.27)μmol/L respectively.Conclusion Blood lactic acid,BNP and Hcy are closely related with the occurrence and development of cerebral infarction,the joint detection of these three indicators provide a reliable ba-sis for the early diagnosis of elderly acute cerebral infarction.The active and effective treatment on the patient should be timely a-dopted and the dynamic monitoring should be performed in order to correctly assess the prognosis.

The present study is to investigate the protective actions of guggulsterone against the cytotoxicity produced by exposure to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in PC12 cells. It was evaluated by MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide] reduction assay, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay, and the release of nitric oxide (NO). ROS and Ca2+ in cells were evaluated by DCFH and Fura 2-AM, respectively. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was assessed by the retention of rhodamine 123 (Rh 123). Apoptosis and morphological alteration in PC12 cells were monitored with flow cytometry and electric microscope. Vitamin E, a potent antioxidant, was employed as a comparative agent. The results showed that preincubation of PC12 cells with guggulsterone (0.1-10 μmol·L-1) prevented cytotoxicity induced by H2O2. Extracellular accumulation of LDH, NO and intracellular accumulation of ROS, Ca2+ resulting from H2O2 were significantly reduced by guggulsterone. Incubation of cells with H2O2 caused a marked decrease in MMP, which was significantly inhibited by guggulsterone. The percentage of H2O2-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells was 24.3%, and decreased in the presence of guggulsterone (0.1-10 μmol·L-1) by .8.4%, 15 .9%, 11.8%, respectively. Guggulsterone exhibited comparable potency against oxidative stress induced by H2O2 in PC12 cells as that of vitamin E. The present findings showed that guggulsterone attenuated H2O2-induced cytotoxicity, extracellular accumulation of LDH and NO, intracellular accumulation of ROS and Ca2+, loss of MMP, and apoptosis, which may represent the cellular mechanisms for its neuroprotective action.
