1.Effects of halofuginone on maturation of dendritic cells and immune tolerance during homograft heart transplantation of rats
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 study the relationships of portal hypertensions to vasoactive substances-angiotensin(AT-Ⅱ)in cirrhosis patients.Methods:48 patients with liver cirrhosis(LC)(including 18 patients with compensated LC and 30 patients with decompensated LC) and 32 normal controls(NC) were studied. Color duplex doppler ultrasonography was used to study portal venous and splenic venous blood flow(PVBF and SVBF).Also,the blood concentration of AT-Ⅱ was detected.Then,analyze the correlation between PVBF and SVBF to AT-Ⅱ.Results:Portal hyperdynamic exists in cirrhosis patients from beginning to the end. Low level of AT-Ⅱ in compensated LC patient has no relation with portal hyperdynamic, high level of AT-Ⅱ in decompensated LC has positive relation with portal hyperdynamic.Conclusion:This study has directed significance of clinical treatment and diagnosis.

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.

Objective: To study mental health status in patients with hepatitis and cirrhosis. Methods: Symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) were assessed to 123 patients with acute and chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. Results: The factor scores of SCL-90 in those patients were significantly higher than those in Chinese norms (P﹤0.01), especially for somatization, depression, anxiety and hostility factors in patients with chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. The factor scores existed elevatory tendency according to the severity of disease among the three groups, but the significant difference was only founded in psychotic factor. Multiple factor analysis showed that the type of liver diseases, age and marriage influenced the factor scores. Conclusion: Mental health problems exist in varying degrees in most patients with hepatitis and cirrhosis, and the type of liver diseases, age and marriage play an importance role in the factor scores of SCL-90.

A thin layer chromatograph-fluorescent method was used to assay content of scopoletin in Erycibe obtusi folia Benth.. The method showed that it not only can minimize analytical errors in thin layer scan and column contamination in HPLC,but also eliminated mutual interference of components in the preparation. It provides a good assay technique for quality control of hebal preparations. The method was carried out on thin layer plates of silica gel H(40?)with benzene-ether (1. 1: 1 )as the developer,at an excitation spectrum of 347nm,fluorescence spectrum of 420nm and a temperture of 25??1℃.The method showed good linearity(r= 0. 9998, n = 5)in the range of 0.08~0. 40?g/?l of scopoletin and the average recovery was 98. 52 % ~ 102. 67 % with RSD
