BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) is an autoallergic disease,but its immunological pathogenesis has not been completely known. T lymphocytes, especially CD4+ TH1/TH2 cells, may have an important effect in the occurrence and development of RA.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the action of CD4+ TH1 and TH2 cells which separately mediate cellular immunity and humoral immunologic response (respectively) function in the occurrence and development of RA.DESIGN: Case-control, comparative observation.SETTING: Department of Immunology, Medical College of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 15 patients with RA hospitalized in the Department of Internal Medicine of General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University between March 1999 and March 2000 were selected for a RA patient group, consisting of 2 males and 13 females. Of them, 12 patients whose serumal rheumatoid factor (RF)was positive and the three others' was negative. At the same time, 30 healthy individuals from persons receiving health examination in the hospital or from our department were selected for a healthy control group, consisting of 4 males and 26 females. Informed consents were obtained from the participants.peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) from the two groups of subjects were detected by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT). 200-500 lymphocytes were counted under a normal light microscope, and the perwhich secreted cytokines were detected by ELISPOT, and those which had red spots in their plasma after staining were positive cells. Among them,the cells secreting γ-interferon (IFN-γ) were Tm cells while those secreting interleukin-4 (IL-4) were TH2 cells. 200-500 lymphocytes were counted under a normal light microscope and the percentages of TH1 and TH2 cells square test were used for comparing statistical differences of data between the two groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Quantitative analysis of T lymphocyte subsets (including CD3+ T cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells) and CD4+ TH1/TH2 cells in peripheral blood from the two groups of subjects.RESULTS: Analysis of the results was from the study on all of subjects percentages of total T cells (CD3+ T cells), CD4+T cells and CD8+F cells in peripheral blood were not significantly different between the two significantly higher in RA patient group than that in healthy control group [(24.44±5.25)%, (14.93±3.82)%, P ＜ 0.05],while in RA patient group the percentage of TH2 cells and ratio of TH1 cells to TH2 cells from peripheral blood were not significantly different as compared with those of control group(P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: Cellular immunologic function mediated by TH1 cells may be associated with the occurrence and development of RA.

In recent years,a large number of researches show that the tumor related gene promoter hypermethylation is an important reason of esophageal adenocarcinoma and closely associated with the differentiation,invasion,metastasis,staging and prognosis of tumors.It might be used as a neww target for the clinical detection and therapy of esophageal adenocarcinoma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the methylation status of multiple genes in plasma and tumor tissues and its application in molecular diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Methods Methylation specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was used to detect methylation status of 5 tumor suppressor genes,such as adenomatous polyposis coli ( APC ),retinoic acid receptor-beta2 ( RARβ2 ),E-cadherin (CDH1),cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor4A (p16INK4α) and ras association domain family member 1 A (RASSF1A) in tumour tissues,adjacent normal tissues and plasma which obtained 1 d preoperative and 7 d postoperative in 76 cases with ESCC.60 healthy volunteers were randomly selected as a control which were age-matched and sex-matched.Chi square test was used to analyze DNA methylation rates of 5 genes in various groups of tissue and plasma samples; Kappa test was used to compare the consistency of DNA methylation in the plasma samples and tissue samples,and their correlation was analyzed by Spearman correlation test; Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity for single gene detection and 5 genes joint detection for diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.ResultsThe methylation rates of APC,RARβ2,CDH1,p16INK4α and RASSF1A in tumour tissues of patients with ESCC were 44.7％ ( 34/76),72.4％ ( 55/76 ),72.4％ (55/76),86.8％ ( 66/76 ),55.3％ (42/76),respectively,which were significantly higher than that in the corresponding adjacent normal tissues [ 6.6％ ( 5/76 ),3.9％ ( 3/76 ),3.9％ ( 3/76 ),3.9％ ( 3/76 ),2.6％ ( 2/76 ),x2 =29.01,75.39,75.39,105.34,57.18,all P ＜ 0.001 ].The methylation rates of above 5 genes in patients' plasma were 42.1％ ( 32/76 ),63.2％ ( 48/76 ),63.2％ ( 48/76 ),71.1％ ( 54/76 ),50.0％ ( 38/76 ),respectively,which were significantly higher than that of control group [3.3％ (2/60),3.3％ (2/60),1.7％ ( 1/60),3.3％ (2/60),1.7％ (1/60),x2 =26.88,51.62,55.01,63.48,38.30,all P ＜ 0.001 ].The methylation consistency was favorable or well between plasma and tumour tissues in patients with ESCC ( Kappa value was 0.679,0.791,0.791,0.542 and 0.895,respectively.all P ＜0.001 ).In single-gene detection for patients' plasma,methylation,the sensitivity of 5 genes was 42.1％ ( 32/76 ),63.2％ ( 48/76 ),63.2％ ( 48/76 ),71.1％ ( 54/76 ),50.0％ ( 38/76 ),respectively.The specificity was 96.7％ ( 58/60 ),96.7％ ( 58/60 ),98.3％ (59/60),96.7％ (58/60),98.3％ (59/60),respectively.The area under curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.694 [95％ confidence interval( CI)0.606 - 0.782 ) ],0.799 ( 95％ CI 0.723 - 0.875 ),0.807 ( 95％CI 0.733 - 0.882),0.839 ( 95 ％ CI 0.769 - 0.908 ) and 0.742 ( 95 ％ CI 0.659 - 0.824 ),respectively.In united testing of 5 genes,the sensitivity was 80.3％ and the specificity was 88.3％,AUC was 0.843 (95％CI 0.773 -0.913 ).The sensitivity of united testing was significantly higher than that of single-gene detection of APC and RASSF1A(x2 =23.30,15.33 ; P ＜ 0.001 ),except RARβ2,CDH1 and p16INK4α (x2 =5.48,5.48,1.75; P =0.019,0.019,0.186);There was no significant differences in specificity between united testing and single-gene detection (x2 =1.922,1.922,3.348,1.922,3.348,all P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions The methylation consistency is favorable or well between tumour tissues and plasma in patients with ESCC.There is no significant superior in diagnosing ESCC with united testing of multiple tumor suppressor genes methylation in plasma than with single-gene detection.But the sensitivity of the former is better than the latter.

Researches find that microRNAs(miRNAs) participate in cell proliferation,differentiation and apoptosis.Dysregulation of miRNA exist in almost all kinds of tumors,including esophageal cancer.MiRNAs bind to mRNA of oncogene or tumor suppressor gene by perfectly or partly base-pair complementarity,and then,promote mRNA degradation or inhibit translation of target mRNA.Recently studies have comfirmed that miRNA functions as a significant regulator in esophageal cancer and it is involved in tumorigenesis,development and prognosis.MiR-21 binds to programmed cell death 4(PDCD4) mRNA and inhibits the translation of PDCD4,then promotes tumorigenesis of esophageal cancer.MiR-106-25 polycistron is activated by genomic amplification,and then suppresses the expressions of P21 and Rim,and subsequently promotes the occurrence and progress of esophageal cancer.

miRNAs are endogenous short RNA molecules widely distributed in eukaryotic organisms.They are closely related to tumor development. One good example is miR-21. It is overexpressed in a variety of tumor tissues, suggesting that miR-21 may have significant carcinogenic activities and act as a oncogene.Many studies confirm that overexpression of miR-21 has great indication in the development, diagnosis, biological treatment and prognosis of gastrointestinal cancer.

hMSH6 is one of the most important members in the mismatch repair family. Its polymorphism is closely related to the pathogenesis and development of neoplasm, particularly in colorectal cancer and endometrial cancer. Moreover, it has been suggested to play a more important role in endometrial cancer compared with hMLH1 and hMSH2.
