Objective To investigate the correlation between the types of constitution in TCM and the sleep status in the PLA Navy divers. Methods Eighty-nine PLA Navy divers who performed 10m diving professional training were selected. Constitution in TCM was classified and determined by the standardized standard Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire, sleep status was evaluated by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Results 62.9% of Navy divers were the mild constitution in TCM. The eight kinds of the biased constitution in TCM are ranked with yang deficiency, phlegm-dampness, dampness-heat, qi deficiency, yin deficiency, blood stasis, qi stagnation and special intrinsic quality. Among 78 Navy divers with good sleep quality, there were 49 divers (72.1%) with the mild constitution in TCM and 19 (27.9%) with the biased constitution in TCM. Among 21 Navy divers with poor sleep quality, there were 7 divers (33.3%) with the mild constitution in TCM (accounting for) and 14 (66.7%) with the biased constitution in TCM. For Navy divers with poor sleep quality, the sleep quality scores were positive correlated with the blood stasis constitution in TCM (r=0.481,P<0.05). Conclusion Sleep status is correlated with the types of the constitution in TCM, and regulating constitution in TCM can improve sleep quality in PLA Navy divers.

OBJECTIVERespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infects nearly all children under two years of age. It is poorly understood why a few children who were infected with RSV develop bronchiolitis that require hospital admission while most have a relatively minor illness. Several recent studies have obtained some indications for the involvement of genetic heterogeneity in RSV bronchiolitis, implying that the clinical outcome of RSV infection perhaps is determined by genetic factors. Regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted RANTES plays a key role in the pathophysiology of RSV bronchiolitis. The purpose of this study was to explore the genetic association between the RANTES gene promoter -28C/G polymorphism and RSV bronchiolitis in Chinese Han ethnic group population.
METHODSThe study recruited 238 hospitalized patients (186 male and 52 female) under 12 months of age, with a clinical diagnosis of bronchiolitis due to RSV, the sex, age, hospital stay, SaO2 at the time of admission, personal and family history of atopy were recorded. The 288 healthy control subjects (206 male and 82 female), who had no evidence of personal or familial history of atopy and no history of wheezing, were chosen at the same time. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to identify the polymorphism at position -28C/G of the RANTES promoter. The total IgE concentrations in serum samples were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The absolute peripheral blood eosinophil counts were measured by using an automated hematology analyzer.
RESULTSThe distribution of RANTES -28C/G gene polymorphism was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Compared to control subjects, significant difference was demonstrated for genotypes and allele frequencies of the RANTES -28C/G polymorphism in patients with RSV bronchiolitis (G = 10.22, P < 0.01; chi2 = 9.708, P < 0.01). Compared with the wild type CC, the -28G allele carriers demonstrated a 2.09-fold increased risk of RSV bronchiolitis (OR = 2.09, 95% CI = 1.32 - 3.30, P < 0.01). Interestingly, both the percentage of personal history of atopy and the percentage of family history of atopy for the -28G allele carriers were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that for those CC homozygotes carriers in RSV bronchiolitis. Compared with the wild type CC, the -28G allele carriers demonstrated a 1.85-fold increased risk of the personal history of atopy (OR = 1.85, 95% CI = 1.01 - 3.38, P = 0.045) and a 1.91-fold increased risk of the family history of atopy (OR = 1.91, 95% CI = 1.03 - 3.54, P = 0.037), and the absolute peripheral blood eosinophil counts for the -28G allele carriers were significantly higher (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe RANTES gene promoter -28C/G polymorphism is associated with the susceptibility to RSV bronchiolitis, and the -28G allele is an important predisposing factor for the personal history of atopy and the family history of atopy in RSV bronchiolitis.

OBJECTIVERespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infects nearly all children under two years of age. It is not understood why some develop serious bronchiolitis. Whether there is a genetic component is not known. The nature of the association between RSV bronchiolitis and subsequent wheezing remains unknown. interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a potent neutrophil chemokine and activator, which plays a role in virus-induced wheezing diseases. The purpose of this study was to assess the genetic association between the IL-8 gene promoter -251A/T polymorphism and RSV bronchiolitis and post-bronchiolitis wheezing in children.
METHODSTotally 320 children who were hospitalized for bronchiolitis together with positive immunofluorescence for RSV were recruited in this study from Jan. 2002 to Jan. 2004. A group of 272 healthy children were enrolled as controls. The age of these children ranged from 1 to 12 months. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to identify the polymorphism at position-251 of the IL-8 promoter in RSV bronchiolitis and control groups. The total IL-8 and IgE concentrations in serum samples were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The patients with RSV bronchiolitis were followed up in order to analyze the occurrence of wheezing post-bronchiolitis.
RESULTS(1) Both A allele and T allele were detected at -251 of the IL-8 promoter; the prevalence of the A allele in RSV bronchiolitis group was 45.6%, as compared with 37.7% in normal group. The prevalence of IL-8-251A allele was significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.05). (2) For genotypes T/T, A/T, A/A in RSV bronchiolitis, level of serum IL-8 were (17 +/- 6) ng/L, (21 +/- 7) ng/L, (24 +/- 9) ng/L, respectively, the difference was significant among the three genotypes (P < 0.01). (3) The prevalence of the A allele in the group who wheezed after the episode of RSV bronchiolitis was 54.6%, as compared with 35.8% in the group who had bronchiolitis but did not go on to wheeze. The prevalence of IL-8-251A allele was significantly different between the two groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONPolymorphism of IL-8 promoter-251A/T was associated with susceptibility to RSV bronchiolitis in children. The association of IL-8-251A with severe RSV bronchiolitis is most marked in the children who go on to wheeze.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between the distribution of mononucleotide polymorphism of five regulation regions of alpha-IFN among HLA-DRB1*11 gene episodes and the therapeutic effects of alpha-IFN treatment in chronic hepatitis B patients.
METHODSOne hundred seven chronic hepatitis patients from Nanjing Second Hospital who were treated by alpha-IFN for 12 months and then followed at least six months without the treatment were randomly selected for this regressive analysis. They were grouped into a continuous responsive group and a non-continuous responsive group. Hepatitis B virus X interacting protein gene locus was searched in NCBI. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) gene locus was detected based on a pooling sequencing method. Primer and TaqMan-MGB probes referring to different mononucleotide loci were designed respectively to detect SNP in five regulation regions of alpha-IFN. Then gene sequencing differences between the two groups were analyzed.
RESULTSAmong the 107 cases there were 30 cases (28.0%) in the continuous responsive group and 77 cases (71.9%) in the non-continuous responsive group. CT occupation rate in five regulation regions of IFN reached 18.0% in the continuous responsive group and 23.8% in the non-continuous responsive group. AG occupation rate reached 10.8% in the former group and 15.8% in the latter group. The differences in CT and AG between the two groups were significant.
CONCLUSIONSThe distribution of mononucleotide polymorphism of five regulation regions of alpha-IFN among HLA-DRB1*11 gene episodes affects the IFN anti-virus treatment. Detecting the gene distribution of mononucleotide in five regulation regions of alpha-IFN helps in predicting the therapeutic effects of alpha-IFN.

To investigate the role of CD4+, CD25+, and CD127low regulatory T cells (Tregs) in multiple myeloma (MM). Methods:Levels of CD4+T cells and Tregs, as well as expression of CTLA-4 and apoptosis-related proteins, such as CD95, bcl-2, and Caspase3 of Tregs in peripheral blood of 30 patients with newly diagnosed cases, 27 patients under of complete remission (CR) from multiple myeloma patients, and 25 healthy adults were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results:The percentage of CD4+T cells in the untreated group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The percentage of Tregs in CD4+T cells in the untreated group was significantly higher than that of the CR group and control group (P<0.05), which in ISSⅢpatients of the untreated group was significantly higher than that in I/II(P<0.05). No significant difference of CD95 expression in Tregs was observed among the three groups. The expression of CTLA-4 in Tregs from the untreated group was significantly higher than that of the CR group (P<0.05) and control group (P<0.01), and so was in CR group than this in controls (P<0.05). The expression of bcl-2 in Tregs in the untreated group was significantly higher than that of the CR group (P<0.05) and control group (P<0.01), and so was in CR group than this in controls(P<0.05). The expression of Caspase3 in Tregs from the untreated group and CR group were all significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The percentage of Tregs in CD4+T cells in the untreated group was positively correlated with the proportion of bone marrow plasma cells (P<0.05). The percentage of Tregs in CD4+T cells from 15 MM patients who received bortezamib and dexamethasone (VD) chemotherapy was negatively correlated to the ratio of plasma cell reduction after the first VD chemotherapy (r=0.735, P<0.01). Conclusion:The level of Tregs in the peripheral blood of MM patients was positively correlated with tumor burden and progression of disease, but was negatively correlated with curative effect. The increased level of Tregs was associated with their strengthened anti-apoptosis function.

OBJECTIVETo study the molecular mechanism of TAp63gamma-induced cell apoptosis.
METHODSTranscription and protein expression of apoptosis inducing factor and p63 were investigated by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR in human esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line EC9706 respectively. Twenty-four hours after transfection with pcDNA3.1-TAp63gamma, the apoptosis and translocation of apoptosis inducing factor in EC9706 cells were studied by flow cytometry, laser confocal microscopy and mitochondrial/cytosol/nuclear extraction analysis respectively. Down-regulation of apoptosis inducing factor protein was achieved by RNAi and pretreatment with caspase inhibitor zVAD.fmk of EC9706 cells.
RESULTSPresence of protein expressions of apoptosis inducing factor and absence of TAp63gamma was observed in the cytoplasm of untransfected cells. RT-PCR verified the subtype of p63 in EC9706 cells was DeltaNp63. After 24 hours of transfection, both nuclear and cytoplasmic expression of apoptosis inducing factor protein were observed in cells transfected with TAp63gamma and p53 expression vectors, but not in cells transfected with control vector. Cell apoptosis rates were 1.37%, 13.64%, 4.52%, 4.03% and 1.91% in the pcDNA3.1 transfection group, pcDNA3.1-TAp63gamma transfection group, apoptosis inducing factor siRNA and pcDNA3.1-TAp63gamma transfection group, zVAD.fmk treatment group, and the group receiving apoptosis inducing factor siRNA, plus zVAD.fmk treatment and pcDNA3.1-TAp63gamma transfection, respectively.
CONCLUSIONSApoptosis inducing factor of EC9706 cells is released from mitochondria into both the cytoplasm and nucleus during TAp63gamma induced apoptosis. Down-regulation of apoptosis inducing factor inhibits TAp63gamma-induced apoptosis. Overall, TAp63gamma-induced apoptosis is dependent on the expression of apoptosis inducing factor and caspase.

Autophagy often occurs after cells are attacked by oxidative stress, where damaged structures are phagocytic and degraded into nutrients, thereby reducing oxidative damage, promoting the survival of cancer cells and reducing the therapeutic effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, excessive activation of autophagy can promote cell apoptosis. In this paper, the photosensitizer pyropheophorbide-a (Ppa) was used to produce a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to achieve the effect of killing cancer cells. At the same time, icaritin (Ica), an autophagy inducer, was used to over-activate autophagy, which transformed the protection of cancer cells into the promotion of cancer cell apoptosis, so as to improve the effect of photodynamic therapy. In this study, the interaction force between Ica and Ppa was exploited to successfully construct a self-assembled nanomedicine IP with good stability and high drug load. The synthesis method is simple, through using the drug itself as a carrier, and the loading capacity (LA) of Ica and Ppa can be increased to 83.53% and 16.45% without introducing potential biosafety risks of nanocarriers. Compared with free Ppa, self-assembled nanomedicine IP showed superior performance in cellular uptake and reactive oxygen species production. In addition, the self-assembled nanomedicine IP can reverse the protective autophagy induced by PDT by activating the autophagy of tumor cells, and facilitate apoptosis and antitumor coordination, which significantly improves the antitumor activity of PDT.

This study was purposed to investigate the expressions of miR-21, miR-155 and miR-210 in plasma of patients with lymphoma, and explore their role played in diagnosis, evaluation of chemotherapy effect and prognosis of lymphoma. The expressions of miR-21, miR-155 and miR-210 were assayed by RT-PCR in plasma of 54 cases of lymphoma, 10 cases of lymphonode inflammation and 27 cases of normal controls. The results indicated that the expressions of miR-21, miR-155 and miR-210 in plasma of lymphoma patients were higher than those of control group and lymphonode inflammation group (P < 0.05). The expressions of miR-21 and miR-210 in plasma of control group and lymphonode inflammation group had no significant differences (P > 0.05). The expression of miR-21 in plasma of lymphoma patient group significantly correlated with their serum LDH level. The expressions of miR-21 and miR-210 in plasma of previously untreated lymphoma patient group were higher than those of the patients treated for 6 or more courses (P < 0.05). The diagnostic accuracy of miR-21, miR-155 and miR-210 used for lymphoma patients was 56, 65, 48 respectively, and reached to 83 when combined three of them. It is concluded that the expressions of miR-21, miR-155 and miR-210 in plasma of lymphoma patients were significantly higher. Detection of these 3 miRNA in plasma of patients can contribute to the clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis evaluation of lymphoma.

OBJECTIVETo study the expressions of erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) and thrombopoietin receptor (TPOR) on CD34+ CD59- and CD34+ CD59+ bone marrow (BM) cells from patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).
METHODS(1) The expressions of EPOR and TPOR on CD34+ CD59- and CD34+ CD59- BM cells from 26 PNH patients and 16 normal controls were examined by flow cytometry (FCM). (2) The mRNA expression of the EPOR and the TPOR in BM mononuclear cells (BMMNC) from 25 PNH patients and 13 normal controls were examined by RT-PCR.
RESULTS(1) The percentage of EPOR positive cells in PNH CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC [(30.67 +/- 18.30)%] was significantly higher than that in PNH CD34+ CD59- BMMNC [(8.05 +/- 3.51)%] (P < 0.01) and than that in control CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC [(8.24 +/- 6.51)%] (P < 0.01), but there was no obvious difference between the CD34+ CD59-BMMNC in PNH and CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC in control. (2) The percentage of TPOR positive cells in PNH CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC [(28.15 +/- 17.75)%] was significantly higher than that in PNH CD34+ CD59-BMMNC [(15.65 +/- 14.45)%] (P < 0.05) and than that in control CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC [(10.77 +/- .39)%] (P < 0.01), but there was no obvious difference between the CD34+ CD59- BMMNC in PNH and CD34+ CD59+ BMMNC in control. (3) There was no statistic difference in EPOR mRNA and TPOR mRNA expressions in BMMNCs between PNH patients group [(0.41 +/- 0.37) and (0.32 +/- 0.19), respectively] and control group [(0.47 +/- 0.33) and (0.40 +/- 0.29), respectively].
CONCLUSIONThe expression of EPOR and TPOR of PNH patients on BM CD34+ CD59+ cells are significantly higher than those on BM CD34+ CD59- cells. The difference may be due to abnormal transcription of both receptor coding genes.

METHODSThe quantity of CD8+ CD25+ and CD8+ HLA-DR+ cells in PB and the expressions of perforin, granzyme B, tumor necrosis factor-beta (TNF-beta) and FasL in 29 SAA (14 untreated and 15 recovered) patients and 12 normal controls were analyzed by flow cytometry.
RESULTSThe fraction of CD8+ CD25+ T cells in CD8+ T cells was (3.67 +/- 2.58)% in untreated SAA patients, (5.19 +/- 4. 29)% in recovered patients and (4.84 +/- 2.31)% in normal controls, and that of CD8+ CD25+ T cells in CD3+ cells in the three groups was (2.25 +/- 1.35)%, (2.98 +/- 1.35)% and (2.11 +/- 1.88)%, respectively. They had no statistic difference among the 3 groups (P >0.05). The fraction of CD8+ HLA-DR+ T cells in CD8+ T cells was (39.30 +/- 8.13)% in untreated patients, which was significantly higher than that in recovered patients [(20.65 +/- 5.38)%] and controls [(18.34 +/- 6.68)%] (P<0.001), while there was no statistic difference between the latter two groups (P>0.05). CD8+ HLA-DR+ T cells in CD3+ cells was (27.81 +/- 7.10)% in untreated group, which was significantly higher than that of recovered group [(12.02 +/- 3.03)%] and controls [(8.50 +/-2.33)%] (P<0.01). And that in recovered group was higher than that in control group (P<0.05). The expressions of perforin, granzyme B, TNF-beta and FasL of CD8+ HLA-DR+ T cells in untreated group were 8.51%, 96.08%, 72.11% and 94.25% respectively, which were higher than those in recovered group (1.78%, 85.20%, 34.38% and 51.20%) and controls (1.86%, 82.09% ,17.92% and 32.91%). There was no statistic difference between recovered patients and controls (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONThere were elevated quantity of CD8+ HLA-DR+ T cells and high expressions of perforin, granzyme B, TNF-beta and FasL in SAA, which might contribute to the bone marrow failure.
