As a new therapy in past twenty years,biological agents have been approved for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However,biological agents currently used for IBD treatment require intravenous or subcutaneous injections,and some require infusion under close observation. Therefore,it is of positive clinical significance to find a safe and effective oral biological agent. This article reviewed recent advances in study on novel oral biological agents in the treatment of IBD.

Objective: To assess the immunological effects by orally administering chicken type Ⅱ collagen(CCⅡ) on collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)mice. To assess the effect on producing IL-1 of peritoneal macrophage in adjuvant arthritis rats by orally administering CCⅡ. Methods: Arthritis were induced in Kunming mice by immunization with chicken type Ⅱ collagen with Freund's complete adjuvant, followed by an interperitoneal injection of CCⅡ 3 weeks later.Chicken type Ⅱ collagen was orally administered from 5 days prior to the induction of arthritis to 14 days after inducing arthritis model. The animals were examined visually twice weekly for polyarthritic signs of swollen and erythemic limbs. Quantitation of antibody level of CIA mice was measured by ELISA method. Subpopulations of T lymphocytes in mice were evaluated by flow cytometry method. IL-1 assay was evaluated by ELISA method. Results: Joint swelling was significantly reduced at a dose of 5 μg.kg-1 and 50 μg.kg-1 of CCⅡ, but not at 250 μg.kg-1. The level of anti-collagen antibodies was also reduced at a dose of 5 μg.kg-1 and 50μg.kg-1 (OD value from CIA model control 0.242±0.073 to CCⅡ 5 μg.kg-1 0.123±0.029 and CCⅡ 50 μg.kg-1 0.110±0.075 respectively). Subpopulations of T-lymphocytes were changed by orally administering of CCⅡ, and the ratio of L3T4+/Lyt-2+ was lowered (the ratio from 1.71 of CIA model control to 1.21, 1.51 of administered CⅡ 5 μg.kg-1, 50μg.kg-1 respectively.) after administering CCⅡ. IL-1 level can be reduced (the value from adjuvant arthritis model control 62.8±0.9 to 43.4±1.3, 49.7±0 ng.L-1 administered CⅡ 5 μg.kg-1, 50μg.kg-1 respectively). Conclusion: Arthritis sign in CIA animal model can be suppressed by oral CCⅡ. The effects may be involved by influencing the mechanisms both humoral and cellular immunity. The effects occurred at lower doses of CCⅡ. These results demonstrated the biologic relevance of by-stander suppression associated with oral tolerance, and the potential use of this approach to treat human inflammatory joint diseases.

Objective To analyze the consistency of transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography (TPUS) and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing perianal lesions of Crohn's disease (CD), and to evaluate the value of transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography in detecting perianal lesions of CD. Methods A cohort of 102 patients diagnosed as Corhn's disease were enrolled from August 2008 to August 2010. Perianal abscess and fistula of these CD patients was diagnosed by ultrasonography and MRI system. Statistics was performed with SPSS 11.5 software for X2 test. The consistency was analyzed with Kappa test. Results The mean onset time of perianal lesions in CD was -0.443 year (95%CI:-1.659~0.773 year) before typical symptoms showed up. There was no significant difference in detecting perianal lesions of CD between transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (P = 0.706, Kappa = 0.541). If pelvic magnetic resonance imaging was considered as the golden standard in detecting perianal lesions of CD,the sensitivity (Sen), specificity (Spe), Youden's index, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of TPUS were 72.73%, 82.61%, 0.55, 66.67% and 86.36% respectively.Furthermore, there was no significant difference between transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging in detecting perianal abscess ( P = 0.706, Kappa = 0.496) and fistula (P=0.655, Kappa=0.546) of CD. Conclusions Perianal lesions occur in the entire course of CD. There was favorable consistency between transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging in detecting perianal abscess and fistula of CD. Transcutaneous perianal ultrasonography can be used as an additional method in detecting and evaluting perianal lesions of CD.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a multifunctional organelle in eukaryotic cells, is responsible for protein synthesis and intracellular signal transduction, which dominates cell function, survival, and apoptosis. Disequilibrium of ER homeostasis may induce ER stress, which closely intertwines with tumor occurrence and progress. A few clinical-used drugs (such as anthraquinones and oxaliplatin) can mediate the immunogenic cell death of tumor cells through excessive ER stress, and sequentially stimulate anti-tumor immune responses as well as long-term immune memory. However, these drugs often exhibit poor targeting ability and extremely low ER accumulation in tumor cells, limiting their clinical efficacy. Therefore, the researches of ER-targeted delivery of these drugs will significantly benefit the efficient and precise anti-tumor immunotherapy. In this review, we introduce the relationship between ER and tumor immunity, and summarize the ER targeting strategies for anti-tumor immunotherapy in recent years. Furthermore, we discuss the problems of existing ER targeting strategies and look into its broad prospects of application.

Understanding the pattern and molecular mechanisms of tooth, maxilla and mandible development is the prerequisite for studying their regeneration. Tooth development can be divided into three stages: bud-bell stage, tooth crown development stage and tooth root development stage. During these processes, key genes show spatial and temporal expression pattern. Tooth development is a complex process involving interactions between dental epithelium and mesenchyme, precise regulations of enamel knots in cusp patterning, as well as successful eruption into the oral cavity under proper biomechanical stress and signaling transductions. The development of tooth, maxilla and mandible, all of which originate from the first branchial arch, is independent and regulates each other to form a whole during development. Any developmental defects of them will ultimately cause defects to the others. In this paper, we briefly reviewed the development of tooth, maxilla and mandible, proposed that the homeostasis of microenvironment is critical for their development. Moreover, we reviewed the role of Meckel’s cartilage, a special structure and signaling mechanism during mandible development. At last, we proposed an integrated development model of tooth, maxilla and mandible. We also hope that the regeneration of fully functional tooth, maxilla and mandible in human can be achieved based on fundamental knowledge we have gained so far.

Objective To investigate the expression of CD40-CD154 co-stimulatory pathway in peripheral circulation and intestinal mucosa in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD),the difference between the expression of CD40-CD154 in patients with IBD and that in healthy controls,and the correlation between CD40-CD154 levels and disease activity. Methods A total of 62 patients with Crohn's disease (CD),64 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 56 healthy controls were enrolled. Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA),SYBR-green real time PCR and immunohistochemical assay were respectively applied to evaluate expression of CD40-CD154 in plasma,mononuclear cells of peripheral blood and intestinal mucosa. Results Levels of CD40 (P=0. 000) and CD154 (P=0. 001) in plasma,mononuclear cells of peripheral blood and intestinal mucosa were significantly higher in patients with CD and UC than in healthy controls. However,no correlation between disease activity and CD40-CD154 expression in peripheral circulation or intestinal mucosa was detected (P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion CD40-CD154 pathway activation is found in plasma,peripheral blood mononuclear cells and intestinal mucosa in patients with IBD,but is not correlated with disease activity.
