Objective To study the immune function of the subpopulation of T helper lymphocyte(Th), including Th1 and Th2 cells in myasthenic thymus and peripheral blood (PB).Methods Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) method is adopted to detect the acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-reactive interleukin-2(IL-2)-, interleukin-4 (IL-4)-, interleukin-10 (IL-10)-, interferon-gamma(IFN-?)-secreting cell numbers in thymus and peripheral blood (PB). Results The AChR-reactive IL-2-,IL-4-,IL-10-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers were increased in thymus as well as the AChR-reactive IL-10-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers in PB. There is a positive correlation between thymus and PB in MG for the AChR-reactive IL-4-, IL-10-secreting cell numbers. After treatment, the AChR-reactive IL-2-,IL-4-, IFN-?-secreting cell numbers were decreased in PB, while there were 1 case and 2 cases showing a decrease and an increase in AChR-reactive IL-10-secreting cell number, respectively.Conclusions The immune dysfunction of the Th1 and Th2 subpopulation existed in the thymus and PB of MG, and the AChR-reactive IL-4-, IL-10-secreting cell numbers might be served as parameters to evaluate the degree of the immune dysfunction in the MG thymus. The role of the IL-10 in pathogenesis of MG needs further study.

The results of experiment showed that B. subtilis BR151 and MI112 containing plasmid pUB110 in LB liquid medium is more stabl than in LB slant. Stable recipient strain BSG for plasmid pUB110 was obtained by mutagenesis with NTG. The strain BSG is more efficient recipient of transformation for shuttle vectors pPTE4 and pBE2 from E.coli than its parent. The chimeric plasmids which contain small inserts are stable in strain BSG after 30 generations.

The DNA damage, caused by cigarette smoking, can cause airway cell apoptosis and death, which may be associated with the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, just 20%-30% smokers develop COPD, which suggests that different degrees of DNA repair cause different outcomes in smokers. X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), a base excision repair protein, has multiple roles in repairing ROS-mediated, basal DNA damage and single-strand DNA breaks. The present study investigated the association between polymorphism in XRCC1 (Arg399Gln) and susceptibility of COPD. A total of 201 COPD cases and 309 controls were recruited and frequency-matched on age and sex. XRCC1 genotype was determined by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Overall, compared with those with the XRCC1 Arg/Arg genotype, the risk for COPD had no significant difference among individuals with Trp/Trp genotype. However, after stratifying by smoking status, in former smokers, compared with those with the XRCC1 Arg/Arg genotype, the risk for COPD was significantly reduced among individuals with Trp/Trp genotype (adjusted OR=0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.85, P=0.028); after stratifying by smoking exposure, in light smokers, compared with those with the XRCC1 Arg/Arg genotype, the risk for COPD was significantly reduced among individuals with Arg/Trp genotype and Trp/Trp genotype (adjusted OR=0.39, 95% CI 0.16-0.94, P=0.036; 0.24, 95% CI 0.07-0.79, P=0.019, respectively). In conclusion, XRCC1 Arg194Trp genotype is associated with a reduced risk of developing COPD among former and light smokers.
