Objective: To investigate the effect of thalidomide and triamcinolone acetonide (TA) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Methods: The primary culture of HUVEC with collagenase Ⅰ was identified with FⅧAg. There were 3 groups in the study including thalidomide group(10, 25, 50 and 75 mg/L), TA and thalidomide group and control group. The absorbance ratio was measured through MTT-test. Results: Both thalidomide group and TA and thalidomide group showed inhibitor effect on the growth of HUVEC significantly(P < 0.01). The inhibitory effect was dose dependent. Compared to thalidomide group, the inhibitory effect was more significant in TA and thalidomide group(P < 0.05). Conclusion: Thalidomide can inhibit the growth of HUVEC; however, the effect was more significant in TA and thalidomide group.

Objective To investigate the expressions and clinical significances of MUC1-mRNA and CK20-mRNA in peripheral blood of esophageal cancer patients.Methods MUC1-mRNA and CK20-mRNA were detected in 53 patients with esophageal cancer,10 patients with esophageal benign tumor and 20 healthy volunteers by RT-PCR technique.Results The expressions of MUC1-mRNA,CK20-mRNA and combining group were 35.85 % (19/53),49.06 % (26/53) and 62.26 % (36/53) in peripheral blood of 53 esophageal cancer patients.In control group,there was no expression of MUC1-mRNA and CK20-mRNA in peripheral blood of 10 patients with benign esophageal disease and 20 healthy volunteers.The positive rate increased by combining test(x2 =11.0228,P ＜0.05).Conclusion MUC1-mRNA and CK20-mRNA might be specific and sensitive markers to detect circulating tumor cells in peripheral blood and their expressions are closely related to TNM stages of the esophageal cancer patients.The combining test might be of high value of the diagnosis of micrometastasis.

Objective To explore the mechanism of combined treatment with methotrexate (MTX) and Ga-Al-As laser irradiation for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to assess the effectiveness of Ga-Al-As laser therapy for RA. Methods Twenty-two patients with RA were randomly and evenly divided into two groups: the treatment group treated with Ga-Al-As laser irradiation combined with MTX and the control group treated with MTX only. Ten age-matched normal subjects were observed as normal controls. The amount of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in peripheral blood (PB) of the normal controls and that in the PB and synovial fluid (SF) of the 22 patients before and after therapy were counted by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, the amount of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in synovial fluid of the patients was measured before and after treatment by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results After combined treatment the clinical symptoms of the patients were improved significantly, and the amount of PGE2in SF decreased significantly. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in PB of RA patients was ( 3.84 ±3.20) % , compared to ( 10.05 ± 7.04) % in healthy individuals. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in SF of RA patients was ( 14.89 ± 12.30) % , much higher than that in PB. The count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells in SF decreased significantly in treatment group compared to control group (P ＜0.05). Conclusion Ga-Al-As laser irradiation eombined with MTX can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of RA patients. It may be related to the decrease of amount of PGE2 and count of CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cell in PB and SF.

In control group,there was only one expression of CEA-mRNA in peripheral blood of 10 patients with benign esophageal disease,as well as in 20 healthy volunteers. There was no expression of CK20-mRNA in peripheral blood of 10 patients with benign esophageal disease and 20 healthy volunteers. Conclusion CEA-mRNA, CK20-mRNA might be specific and sensitive markers to detect circu-lating tumor cells in peripheral blood and their expression was closely related to TNM stages of the esophageal cancer patients.

Objective: To clone human T cell receptor (TCR) ? chain gene and express its encoding protein by baculoviral expression system in insect cells. Methods: TCR ? chain cDNA was cloned from normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by RT-PCR and inserted into baculoviral transfer vector. This vector was co-transfected with baculovirus into insect sf 9 cells. The recombinant protein expressed was identified by SDS-PAGE and flow cytometry with mouse anti-human ? chain monoclonal antibody. Results: Human TCR ? chain cDNA cloned and inserted into baculoviral vector specifically expressed protein in the insect sf 9 cells, accounting for about 11% of the total protein yield in the supernatant of cell lysate. The molecular weight of the recombinant protein determined by SDS-PAGE was identical to what we anticipated. The insect cells transfected with recombinant baculovirus were demonstrated by intracellular labeling flow cytometry to express ? chain protein. Conclusion: Human T cell receptor ? chain gene was successfully cloned from human PBMC, and its encoding protein was highly expressed in insect cells. The TCR ? chain protein obtained by bioengineering technique is useful for in depth biological function study.

Objective To investigate the role of Rho/ROCK signaling pathway in the process of human mesangial cells (HMCs) inflammation and fibrosis induced by high glucose. Methods Synchronized HMCs were divided into following groups: ( 1 ) Normal glucose control group ( NG, 5.5 mmol/L glucose); ( 2 ) High glucose group ( HG, 30 mmol/L glucose); (3) Mannitol group( Man,5.5 mmol/L glucose+ 24.5 mmol/L mannitol); (4) NG +Y-27632 group( 10 μ mmol/L Y-27632 ); ( 5 ) HG Y-27632 group ( 10 μmmol/L Y-27632 ). The supernatant and cells were collected at 0,12,24,36,48, and 72 h. Western blot was used to detect the active RhoA and total RhoA,while RhoA, ROCK-Ⅰ, CTGF, and TNF-α mRNA expressions were determined with realtime PGR method in the cells, then ELISA method was used to check protein levels of FN, CTGF, and TNF-α in the supernatant. Results ( 1 ) RhoA activation was stimulated after treatment for with 30 mmol/L glucose, peaked at 1 h, and then decreased ( P = 0. 02). (2) RhoA, ROCK-Ⅰ, CTGF, and TNF-α mRNA expressions in HMC cultured under high glucose were higher than those in the normal group ( P ＜ 0.05 ), and there was certain time-dependence. Besides, there was no statistical significance between Man and NG groups( P＞0. 05 ). ( 3 ) After Y-27632 pretreatment and being cultured with normal glucose and high glucose for24 h or48 h, RhoA, ROCK-Ⅰ, CTGF, and TNF-α mRNA expressions were significantly decreased ( P＜0.01 ) as compared with groups without treatment. (4) High glucose increased FN, CTGF,and TNF-α protein secretion of HMC in a time-dependent manner( P＜0. 05 ). ( 5 ) After Y-27632 pretreatment and being cultured with normal and high glucose for 12,24,36,48,72 h, FN, CTGF, and TNF-α protein secretions were significantly reduced( P＜0.05 ). Conclusion Rho/ROCK signaling pathway may mediate inflammation and fibrosis induced by high glucose in HMCs, supporting a potential role for inhibitors of Rho/ROCK in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.
