Objective To investigate the effect of different stimulating culture conditions and detecting methods on the frequency of Th17 cells and to set up and optimize the experimental method for detecting the frequencies of human Th 17 cells in peripheral blood by flow cytometry (FCM ) .Methods The peripheral blood in the healthy people was performed the stimulating culture by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) at different final concentrations(50 ,100 ,150 ,200 ,250 ,300 ng/mL) and ionomycin 1 μg/mL .The frequencies of Th17 cells were assessed by FCM after different stimulating time points (4 ,6 ,8 ,10 ,12 h) .The mean fluorescence in-tensity(MFI) and percentage of the ratio of CD4 positive cells on the cellular surface and inside cell membrane were measured be-fore and after PMA stimulation .Results The frequency of Th17 cells was highest with the good stimulation effect under the condi-tion of PMA 150 ng/mL and ionomycin1μg/mL stimulation for 6 h (P<0 .05) .MFI of CD4 inside cellular membrane after stimula-tion was lower than that in the cells with stimulation after labeling membrane surface CD 4(P<0 .05) ,and the Th17 cell frequencies and the ratio of CD4 positive cells were higher than those in the latter ,but the differences were not statistically significant (P>0 .05) .Conclusion After stimulating whole blood with the final concentration of PMA 150ng/mL and ionomycin1μg/mL for 6 h , measuring intracytoplasm CD4 and IL-17 levels is the simple and effective method for detecting the frequency of human Th 17 cells .

Objective To investigate the causes,diagnostic methods,prevention and cure of postmenopausal bleeding(PMB).Methods The clinical and pathological data of 210 PMB patients admitted in this hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results The causes for PMB were benign diseases(69.5%),the most of which were infec- tious diseases(49.5%),non-organic disease(20.5%)and malignant tumor(10.0%).Compared with benign diseases and non-organic diseases,the attack age of malignant tumor was higher[(67.1?6.9)years old],menopausal dura- tion was longer(11.6?2.9)years,bleeding duration was longer[(157.6?26.4)days],and mucous membrane was obviously thickened[(14.6?3.2)mm](P0.05).Conclusion The main cause for PMB is benign diseases,followed by non-organic diseases.More attentions should be paid to the PMB patients with higher attack age,longer menopausal duration and bleeding dura- tion,and obviously thickened mucous membrane,so as to be precautions to the occurrence of malignant tumor.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of human leukocyte antigen B27(HLA-B27)antigen and ankylosing spondylitis(AS),and its implications for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of AS.Methods Flow cytometry was used to detect HLA-B27.354 suspected AS patients,35 patients final diagnosed with AS and 30 patients diagnosed with rheu-matoid arthritis(RA)were enrolled in the study.Results The positive rate of HLA-B27 in 354 patients with suspected AS was 22.0%,in patients diagnosed with AS was 85.7%,which was higher than the RA group(P <0.05).In AS patients,Males accoun-ted for 77.1%,females accounted for 22.9%,and the patients′age mainly concentrated in youth.The sensitivity and specificity of HLA-B27 test was 85.7% and 100.0% respectively in the diagnosis of AS.Conclusion HLA-B27 antigen detection is important for early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of AS patients.

Objective To investigate the dynamic variation of flavonoids contents in the flowers of Citrus grandis at different flowering periods. Methods The content of total flavonoids in the flowers of Citrus grandis was determined by means of ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy ,and the contents of naringin and rhoifolin were determined by HPLC. Results The content of total flavonoids in the flowers during the flower withering period ,the young fruit period ,the blossom period,and the budding period was 306.90 mg.g-1,277.93 mg.g-1,215.55 mg.g-1 and 162.74 mg.g-1 respectively. The naringin content during the above four different periods was 246.31 mg.g-1,213.93 mg.g-1,175.94 mg.g-1 and 130.90 mg.g-1 respectively. The rhoifolin content during the four periods was unchanged. Conclusion The contents of total flavonoids and naringin in flowers of Citrus grandis during flower withering period are the highest.

ObjectiveTo investigate sleep disorder of patients with depression and find out the regularity.Methods78 depression cases in the east-region of Shenyang were evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire and mental health symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90). The results were contrasted with normal control group.Results63 depression cases (80%) had sleep disorder (PSQI scores≥8) and were significantly higher than normal control group. The PSQI evaluation showed that sleep quality, enter-sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorder, hypnotige drugs, function of daytime and total scores of PSQI of the depression group were significantly higher than that of normal control group (P<0.05～0.01). The SCL-90 test showed that scores of somatic, obsessive, depressive, anxiety, phobia, paranoid and mental-illness, etc. and total quota of bad-sleep quality group were significantly higher than that of the fine-sleep quality group (P<0.05～0.01).ConclusionDepression patients have significantly descent in sleep quality, latter is often closely related to the mental psychotic expressiveness of somatic, obsession, depression, anxiety, phobia, etc.

AIM To study the central role of genistein (GST) in regulating cardiovascular function of nervous center by examining the effects of GST on the electrical activity of rat paraventricular nucleus neurons in slice preparation and to elucidate the mechanism involved. METHODS Using extracellular single-unit discharge recording technique to examine discharges of neurons in paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamic slices at the resting potential level. RESULTS ①In response to the application of GST 10, 50 and 100 μmol·L-1, respectively, in the perfusate for 2 min, the spontaneous discharge rates (SDR) of neurons in 25/26 hypothalamic slices were significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner. ②Pretreatment with L-glutamate 0.2 mmol·L-1 led to a marked increase in the SDR of slices in an epileptiform pattern. GST 50 μmol·L-1 significantly attenuated the increased SDR in all 7 slices. ③In 8/8 slices, the G protein-coupled inwardly rectifying K+ channels (GIRKs) antagonist, tetraethylammonium 1 mmol·L-1 completely blocked the inhibitory effect of GST 50 μmol·L-1. ④Pretreatment with nitric oxide synthase inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester 50 μmol·L-1 increased SDR in all 7 slices, but did not affect the inhibitory effect of GST 50 μmol·L-1. CONCLUSION GST can inhibit the electrical activity of paraventricular neurons, and play a protective role on the central neurons. The inhibitory effect of GST may be related to the activation of GIRKs which induce K+ outward current and then engender the cell membrane hyperpolarization, but be not due to the NO release.

Objective To understand the clinical features of candidemia.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed based on the data of 88 candidemia cases treated in Huashan Hospital during the period from 2007 to 2012.The clinical data were re-viewed in terms of species distribution,underlying diseases,clinical manifestations,treatment and outcomes.The prognostic factors were analyzed by chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test.Multivariate analysis was conducted by multiple Logis-tic regression.Results Candida albicans (40/88,45.5%)was the most common pathogen isolated from these candidemia ca-ses,followed by Candida tropicalis (20/88,22.7%),Candida parapsilosis (17/88,19.3%),Candida glabrata (10/88, 11 .4%),and Candida krusei (1/88,1 .1 %).Solid malignancy,diabetes,and surgical procedure were the most frequently identified underlying diseases.Fatal or deteriorative outcome was reported in 28 cases.The attributable mortality was 18.2%. Multivariate prognostic analysis indicated that presence of central venous catheter (OR:6.322,95% CI :1 .055-37.891 ,P =0.044)was independently correlated to increased mortality.Appropriate antifungal therapy was an independent predictor of de-creased overall mortality (OR:0.137,95% CI :0.039-0.480,P =0.002).Conclusions The pathogen distribution of candi-demia has changed slightly.Appropriate antifungal therapy plays a key role in the treatment of candidemia.
