0.05).Conclusion:People adjust the immunological function of B cells to normal level in blood donation plastochrone.These undoubtedly provide powerfully experimental data on the enlistment of volunter blood donation.

Background:Inflammation plays an important role in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI),and erythropoietin (EPO)has been reported to have anti-inflammatory activity. Aims:To explore the protective effect of EPO on intestinal IRI and its potential mechanism. Methods:Thirty-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham operation group(sham group),IRI group,EPO group and 740Y-P group. Rats in IRI,EPO and 740Y-P groups were injected intraperitoneally with 0. 9% NaCl,EPO and EPO + 740Y-P,respectively,one hour before the establishment of intestinal IRI model by superior mesenteric artery clamping(45 min)-reperfusion. All rats were sacrificed one hour after reperfusion. Histopathological changes of small intestine were observed;expression of proteins in PI3K/ Akt and NF-κB signaling pathways was measured by Western blotting;expression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-8(IL-8),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)were examined by real-time PCR and ELISA. Results:Compared with sham group,the damage score of small intestine,protein expressions of PI3K,p-Akt and p-NF-κB p65,as well as mRNA expressions and serum levels of IL-8,TNF-α and MCP-1 in IRI group were significantly increased(P < 0. 05). EPO pretreatment could ameliorate the histopathological changes of small intestine in IRI model rats,inhibit PI3K/ Akt and NF-κB signaling activation and down-regulate expression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. When 740Y-P,a PI3K agonist,was used combinedly,the effect exerted by EPO was diminished. Conclusions:EPO pretreatment can protect against intestinal IRI by inhibiting the activation of PI3K/ Akt/NF-κB signaling and the subsequent inflammatory response.

BackgroundHypoxia-inducible factor-1 α (HIF-1α) specific double-stranded RNA ( dsRNA ) mediated by liposome inhibit reinal neovascularization in mice at dose-dependent manner. ObjectiveThe present study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of dsRNA targeting HIF-1α on retinal neovascularization in mice.MethodsModels of oxygen-induced retinal neovascularization were set up in C57BL/6J mouse through exposure of postnatal day 7 ( P7 ) to (75±3) ％ oxygen for 5 days.Fluorescein conjugated Dextran angiography of retinal vascular was performed to identify the retinal neovascularization.The 8 mice of the normal group were raised in the room air.Fifty-one P7 mice exposed to(75±3)％ oxygen for 5 days and then returned to the room air and assigned to control group ( 3 mice),empty vector group( 3 mice) and gene therapy group (45 mice),and the latter were medially divided to 9 groups randomly according to dose-ratio ( liposomes ∶ plasmid).The pSilencer 2.1-U6 hygro was injected in the model mice of empty vector group,and different dose-ratios of pSilencer2.1-U6 hygro-HIF-1α dsRNA were injected respectively in the model mice of various gene therapy groups.Fluorescein conjugated Dextran angiography of retinal vascular was performed to observe the morphology of new blood vessels,and retinal slides were prepared to score the numbers of nuclei extending beyond the inner limiting membrane( ILM ),and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) was detected in the retina by immunohistochemistry.Results The retinal blood vessels of the normal group formed a fined radial branching pattern.The retinal vascular patterns in the control group and the empty vector group were characterized by decreased central perfusion in both the superficial and the deep layers.The abundant vessels were distorted and irregular in the control group and empty vector group,and the obstructed capillary and lots of neovascular tufts were seen.The retinal neovascularization and non-perfusion distraction in the every gene therapy group were reduced markedly with the most severe appearance in 1 ∶ 1 ( liposomes ∶ plasmid) dose-ratio group.Few vascular endothelial cell nucleus extending beyond the ILM were found in the normal group;while a large number of vascular endothelial cell nucleus were showed in the control group and empty vector group with the occurring rate 100％.Statistically,no significant difference was seen in the number of nuclei extending beyond the ILM between the control group and the empty vector group(11.57±5.85 vs 11.53±6.15),however,that in 1∶1 (liposomes∶plasmid) group was reduced markedly ( 2.17 ± 4.23 ) ( P ＜ 0.01 ).Immunohistochemistry revealed that VEGF was faintly expressed in the normal group but strongly expressed in the control group and the gene therapy group.VEGF expressions of various gene therapy groups were weaker than ones of the control group and the empty vector group.ConclusionsRetinal neovascularization can be efficiently inhibited by intravitreal injection of the pSilencer2.1-U6 hygro-HIF-1α dsRNA mediated by liposome.Proportion of 1 ∶ 1 (liposomes ∶ plasmid)has a maximized efficiency.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Methotrexate thermosensitive hydrogels,and to study the in vitro re-lease property of it. METHODS:Taking PLGA-PEG-PLGA as matrix and mannitol as viscosity modifiers,Methotrexate thermosen-sitive hydrogels were prepared. Using the absolute value of the deviation of gelation temperature between 35 ℃,its formulation was optimized by orthogonal test using the concentrations of PLGA-PEG-PLGA,methotrexate and mannitol as factors. The dialysis bag method was used to investigate accumulative release rate of Methotrexate thermosensitive hydrogels and methotrexate solution within 336 h in vitro. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was as PLGA-PEG-PLGA of 20%,methotrexate of 0.10% and mannitol of 0.10%;gelation temperature were 35.1,35.0,35.0℃. The average drug-loading rate was more than 90%. 12 d accumulative re-lease rate was more than 90%(r=3). Methotrexate solution has been substantially completely relased within 240 h. CONCLU-SIONS:Methotrexate thermosensitive hydrogels with sustained-release are prepared successfully,and the preparation technology is simple and practical.
