Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of human glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)-engineered rat neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation in rat model of Parkinson's disease ( PD) . Methods SD rats received a single injection of 24 μg of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) at two sites in right striatum. Then 10 days after surgery, the successful animal models of PD were divided into 3 groups: PD model group ( 2 μl transplantation media was injected in right striatum), NSC group (transplanted were 2×10~5 NSCs infected by bare lentivirus) and GDNF group (transplanted were 2×10~5 GDNF-engineered NSCs). The rotation scores were assessed 5 weeks, 7 weeks and 9 weeks after transplantation. The dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra ( SN ) were analyzed quantitatively using immunohistochemistry for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), and the dopamine and its metabolites, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) were analyzed 9 weeks after transplantation by high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC) . Results GDNF-engineered NSC transplantation could effectively improve the behavioral performance in rats. At the 5th week after cell transplantation, the rotation turns within 90 min were (993. 9±159. 1) turns, (956. 7±136. 3) turns and (433. 6±100. 9) turns in PD model group, NSC group and GDNF group respectively (F=95. 694, P = 0. 000). At the 7th week, the rotation turns within 90 min were (964. 2 ± 152.0) turns, (909. 2 ± 136. 3) turns and (399. 4±84. 4) turns in PD model group, NSC group and GDNF group respectively (F = 106. 134, P=0. 000). At the 9th week, the rotation turns within 90 min were (909. 5±152. 2) turns, (865. 5± 129. 1) turns and (312. 2±63. 7) turns in PD model group, NSC group and GDNF group respectively (F= 151. 100, P = 0.000). GDNF-engineered NSC transplantation could significantly increase the levels of dopamine and its metabolites in injured striatum. The concentrations of dopamine in injured striatum was higher in GDNF group than that in PD model group and NSC group C(7. 5±0. 8) ng/mg vs. (3.3±0.3) ng/mg and (3. 7±1. 3) ng/mg, F=59. 543, P = 0. 0003. The level of DOPAC was higher in GDNF group than that in PD model group and NSC group C(0. 9±0. 1) ng/mg vs. (0. 5± 0. 1) ng/mg and (0. 6±0. 2) ng/mg, F= 17. 293, P=0. 000]. The concentration of HVA in injured striatum was higher in GDNF group than that in PD model group and NSC group [(0. 9±0. 1) ng/mg vs. (0.5±0. 1) ng/mg and (0. 6±0. 2) ng/mg, F=35.175, P = 0.000]. Conclusions engineered NSC transplantation improves the function of dopamine system in SN and striatum, and GDNF gene therapy has potential clinical value.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and the side effects of whole body hyperthermia(WBH) combined with chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Methods 24 patients were included in trial group(16 male and 8 female), 15 patients in Ⅲb stage and 9 patients in Ⅳ stage.6 patients had received chemotherapy before, received 1 course of WBH combined with Docetaxel; 18 cases were previously untreated, received 1 course of WBH combined with Paclitaxel and Carboplatin, then another course chemotherapy in the same time period. 26 patients were included in control group (17 male and 9 female), 16 patients in Ⅲb stage and 10 patients in Ⅳ stage. 6 patients had received chemotherapy before, were treated with Docetaxel at least 2 courses with 3 weeks interval. 20 cases, previously untreated, were treated with Paclitaxel combined with Carboplatin at least 2 courses with 3 weeks interval. Efficacy was evaluated 4 weeks after 2 courses of chemotherapy. Results The response rate was 58.3, and 30.8 in control group. The common side effects were gastrointestinal toxicity , nerve toxicity and leucopenia, but these side effects were all mild. Conclusions WBH combined with chemotherapy is an effective regimen for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer with acceptable toxicity.

Objective To investigate if corticosteroid could influence periphe ral blood CD3＋、 CD4＋ and CD8＋ cells in secondary syphilis and the prognosis of syphilis. Methods CD3＋、 CD4＋、 CD8＋ cells were detected in 11 patients wh o took corticosteroid and 20 patients who did not. The effects on the therapeuti c effect of lesions were observed. Results The levels of CD3＋ and CD4＋ in peri pheral blood were significantly lower in corticosteroid group than those in cont rols. The proportion of patients whose RPR test turned to negative and lesions c ured was significantly lower in corticosteroid group than those in controls with in the first three months after treatment. Conclusion Corticosteroid administrat ion decreases the levels of CD3＋ and CD4＋ in secondary syphilis and therefore influence the prognosis of syphilis.

Objective To study the effects of lipopolysaccharide(LPS) on the expression of toll like receptor 4 (TLR4), reactive oxygen species(ROS) and on the proliferation of cells as well as secretion of six proinflammmatory cytokines including TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 levels in SKOV3 cells. And to explore the mechanism of SKOV3 cells in regulation. Methods Cultured primary SKOV3 cells were stimulated with different concentrations of LPS (0.01 μg/ml, 0.1 μg/ml, 1 μg/ml, 10 μg/ml and 20 μg/ml) for 4 h, the TLR4 expression in SKOV3 cells were examined by flow cytometry;1 μg/ml LPS stimulated SKOV3 for 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h respectively, the TLR4 expression and cell cycle in SKOV3, cell proliferation, ROS level as well as cells and TNF-α and IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 levels in the culture medium were assayed by flow cytometry, MTT, CBA assay respectively. Results LPS with different concentrations of LPS stimulation in-duced an increased TLR4 expression, however, the expression was reduced when LPS concentration up to 10 μg/ml. LPS stimulation for 4 h, 8 h induced an increased TLR4 expression and cell proliferation. Stimulated for 24 h, however, the TLR4 expression and cell growth were inhibited in S period. Meanwhile, LPS stimulation for 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h induced a higher ROS secretion in comparison with control group. LPS stimulation induced a stronger cytokine response in comparison with control group, as demonstrated by the production of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8 secretion in cultured SKOV3 cells, while IL-10 and IL-12 with low expression have no obvious difference in the all medium samples. Conclusion TLR4 expression, cell proliferation, ROS and proin-flammmatory cytokine secretion could be induced in SKOV3 through LPS stimulation. The study provide new ex-periment evidences for human ovarian cells SKOV3 immunity regulation and inflammation reaction to promote cells inhibition after LPS stimulation.

Objective To explore the mechanism through which nicotine protects dopaminergic neurons against 6-OHDA toxicity in SD rat. Methods Rats received nicotine or saline treatment (two doses tested,0. 2 rag/ kg and 2 rag/ kg, 5 injections i.p. per day at 2-h intervals). On day 8after the treatment, a single injection of 20μg of 6-OHDA was administered into right striatum.Nicotine or saline was administered continuously daily until animals were killed. The dopaminergic neurons and CD3, CD4 and CDS-positive lymphocytes were analyzed quantitatively using immunohistochemistry. Microglia activation was quantified by IBA1 immunofluorescence. Results The loss of dopaminergic neurons induced by 6-OHDA in the substantia nigra was significantly less severe in the nicotine treatment group (at both 0. 2 and 2 mg/kg groups) than that in the saline treated group. In the striatum, we observed that the number of CD3, CD4 and CD8-positive lymphocytes reduced significantly in the nicotine treated animals as compared to saline controls. Otherwise, nicotine inhibited CD4 and CD8-positive lymphocytes infiltration equivalently. Quantitative immunofluorescenee analysis indicated the microglia activation was inhibited obviously in nicotine treatment. Conclusions Our data suggest that nicotine may have a neuroprotective effect against dopaminergic lesion induced by 6-OHDA by inhibiting the inflammation.

Objective To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of mouse CD25 extracellular domain and to express it in E coli.Methods Total RNA was isolated from splenocytes of Balb/c mice.The CD25 extracellular domain gene was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into the PET-32a vector.A positive recombinant,PET-32a-CD25e,was identified by enzyme cleaving and sequencing before its expression in E.coli,and transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3) plysS for its expression.After purification with Ni+ resin and renaturation in vitro,a relative molecular mass(Mr) of the interesting protein was detected by SDS-PAGE and Wes-tern blotting.Effect of the purified interesting protein on the proliferation of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized syngeneic mice was detected by MTT assay.Results The cloned CD25 extracellular domain gene was identified to be functional by sequencing and expression.The purified interesting protein could significantly induce the proliferation and IL-4 secretion of splenocytes from T cell vaccine-immunized mice in vitro.Conclusion Mouse CD25 extracellular domain gene can be successfully expressed in prokaryotic cells with biological activity,which lays a foundation for further relative studies.
