Objective To identify the changes in proliferative activity and cytotoxicity of lymphokine activated killer(LAK) cells after in vitro co-culture with dendritic cells from umbilical cord blood(CBDC). Methods CBDCs were induced by using GM-CSF and IL-4,and then co-cultrued with allogenic LAK at different proportions.Proliferative activity and cytotoxicity of LAK cells were measured by MTT assay.Results The typical CBDCs were induced in vitro,and the cultured CBDCs stimulated the proliferation and cytotoxicity of LAK cells.The optimal proportion of CBDC and LAK was 1:10,at which the activated LAK showed the highest cytotoxic effect on the tumor cells.Conclusion The CBDCs can enhance the proliferation and cytotoxicity of LAK cells.

BACKGROUND: Vitrification is a comparatively new technology which applies high concentration cryoprotectant and rapid refrigeration. By the method, the cells were quickly frozen and to avoid damage by ice crystals inside and outside. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effect of four cryoprotectants on morphology and function of ovarian tissue in rats after vitrification. METHODS: The rats were randomly assigned into six groups with 6 rats for each: DMSO + EG, DMSO + EG + sucrose, DMSC +EG + sucrose + acetamide, EG + sucrose + acetamide, ovariectomized, and normal control groups. The ovarian tissues of four freezing groups were treated with the corresponding cryoprotectants, the vitrified ovarian tissues were then resected but not frozen and transplanted; otherwise, tissues were not treated with any treatment in the normal control group. Two weeks after freezing, the tissues were thawed and heterotopic-transplanted into femoribus intemus of hind limb. At 30 days after implantation, vaginal epithelial cells and estrus cycle were observed, while after three months, blood were collected to detect the level of estradiol (E2) and the ovarian tissues were reclaimed to analyze their morphological changes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: All ovarian tissues were damaged after cryoprersarvation in four freezing groups. The rates ot healthy primordial follicles were 67.9%, 71.6%, 80.5%, and 59.4%, respectively, while healthy primary follicles were 41.6%, 52.3%, 55.9%, and 36.7%, respectively. In all freezing groups, the rate of the healthy follicles in DMSO + EG + sucrose + acetamide group was higher than DMSO + EG group and EG + sucrose + acetamide group (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in the proportion of follicles at different development stages among four groups. The typical secondary follicle was not found in four groups. Damaged ovotid showed oocyte pyknosis and vacuolation in cytoplasmic area. There was not typical cell type of all freezing groups. Ovarian autografting gained visible vascularity from surrounding tissue that connected ovarian tissue to form net. There was a lot of blood capillary in transplanted ovarian tissues and clumped primordial follicles in cortical substance. The rates of primary follicles and secondary follicles were lower than primordial follicles. The level of serum estradiol was obviously decreased compared with normal control group (P < 0.01). There was significant difference between DMSO + EG + sucrose + acetamide group and other three freezing groups (P < 0.05). Four kinds of freezing methods have poor effects on different stages of follicles and the structure of ovariarn tissue. DMSO + EG + sucrose + acetamide group is an optimal protocol for cryoprerserving ovarian tissue. Freezing methods still need to explore further because the rats had not appeared disciplinary estrus cycle after ovarian autoqrafting.

The experiment was performed at the Institute of Treatment and Prevention of Tumor of Jilin Province and Department of Etiology, Jilin Medical College from October 2004 to June 2005. The normal umbilical cord blood (UCB) was provided by a healthy lying-in woman from Changchun Hospital with the permission of the pregnant woman. Full-term normal delivery and UCB of healthy pregnant women was collected by aseptic venepuncture after fetal disengagement, and with Natrium Citricum anticoagulation. After the UCB mononuclear cells were isolated by Ficoll-paque (relative volume mass: 1.077?0.22) density gradient centrifugation, long-term liquid culture system was used for UCB adherent cells, and co-cultured with UCB mononuclear cells. The adherent cells were observed and mononuclear cell cycles were tested with flow cytometer. It showed that adherent layer of UCB increased UCB mononuclear cells expansion as compared with that of non-adherent layer of UCB after co-culture for 7 days. The cell percentage in S+G2+M phase obviously increased, and there was significant difference [(42.7?1.1)%,(35.5?2.8)%,P

AIM: To study the effect of the radix sophorae flavescentis on cellular immunity in rats with Pneumocystis Carinii Pneumonia (PCP) induced by long-term use of immunosuppressant, and explore the action of traditional Chinese medicine for the immunological regulation and infectious prevention after organ transplantation. METHODS: The experiment was conducted at Department of Pathobiology, Jilin Medical College from May 2005 to March 2006. Forty adult healthy female SD rats were selected from Harbin Medical University (Certification: 02473146) and randomly divided into experiment group and control group, with 20 rats in each. The model of PCP was set up by glucocorticoid injection subcutaneously to SD rats (25 mg once, 2 times/week). The mixture of sophorae flavescentis was given to stomach with tube in experiment group (3 mL/kg, 2 times/day), and was consisted of radix sophorae flavescentis, ash bark, amur cork-tree, malt, milkvetch root and danshen root. Six weeks later, all the rats were anesthetized and broncholveolar lavage fluids were collected.①Alveolar washing fluid was concentrated 10 times and the levels of the soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) were examined by double antigen sandwich ELISA.②Blood was sampled from rat eyes and the count of lymphocytes in peripheral blood were detected.③The percentages of CD3+ and CD4+ subgroups were assessed with erythrocyte chaplet kit sensitized by antigen. RESULTS: All 40 rats were involved in the result analysis without drop.①The count of lymphocytes in peripheral blood in experiment group was significantly higher than that in control group (5.1?1.3)%, (0.8?0.3)%, P

We investigated the correlation between toxin gene exoS,exoU and fluoroquinolone resistance in lower respiratory tract infection with P.aeruginosa so as to provide guidance for reasonable treatment of clinical infections.We collected P.aeruginosa of sputum samples in hospitalized patients from October 2015 to March 2016.The antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by liquid dilution method.The exoS and exoU genes were detected by PCR technique.Results showed that forty-six P.aeruginosa strains were identified from sputum.The exoS and exoU gene positive rate were 86.96 ％ (40/46) and 69.57 ％ (32/ 46) respectively,and the highest proportion of genotype was exoS+/exoU+ (60.87％,28/46).Among them,36.96％ (17/ 46) were multiple drug-resistant bacteria(MDR).Fluoroquinolone non-sensitive (FQ-NS) strain were 78.95％ (15/19) for MDR and 89.47 ％ (17/19) exoU gene were positive,which was significantly higher than the fluoroquinolone sensitive strains (FQ-S).Compared with the FQ-S strain,FQ-NS strains were serious drug resistance.The drug resistant rate of eefepime and aztreonam were more than 70％,and then meropenem and imipenem were more than 50％.The drugs of lower resistance rate in FQ-NS strain had polymyxin B(10.53％,2/19),amikacin(10.53％,2/19),ceftazidime (15.79％,3/19) and gentamicin (21.05％,4/19).P.aeruginosa of lower respiratory infection carried toxin genes exoS and exoU were higher,the main genetpy was exoS+/exoU+.FQ-NS strains were higher drug resistance rate and a higher proportion of exoU+ strains than FQ-S strains.We should strengthen virulence genes test and drug resistance monitoring in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the role of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-l (sTREM-1) in children with community acquired pneumonia.Methods One hundred and seventy-six children with community acquired pneu-monia, 98 cases were mild and 78 cases were servere, were recruited. Thirty healthy children were recruited as control group. The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil percentage (N%), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and sTREM-1 were measured.Results The levels of WBC, N%, CRP, IL-6, IL-10, IL-6/IL-10, PCT, and sTREM-1 were signiifcantly different among children with mild pneumonia, severe pneumonia, and healthy controls. All of the indicators were elevated in children with mild and severe pneumonia than those in healthy controls (P<0.05). IL-6/IL-10 sTREM-1 were further signiifcantly elevated in children with severe pneumonia than children with mild pneumonia (P<0.05). IL-6/IL-10 was positively correlated with sTREM-1 (r=0.42,P<0.05).Conclusions sTREM-1 may help for evaluating the severity and outcome of children with community acquired pneumonia.

Objective:To develop a biomimetic nanoparticle probe of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) coated with breast cancer cell membrane, to observe its ability to target homologous breast cancer cells in vitro, and to investigate its effect of enhanced photoacoustic imaging and sonodynamic therapy (SDT) for breast cancer in vitro.Methods:The cell membrane of breast cancer 4T1 was extracted by chemical cleavage and repeated freezing and thawing. Then the HMME-coated polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer biomimetic nanoparticle was prepared by double emulsification and extrusion. The basic characteristics of nanoparticles were detected. The target ability of nanoparticles to homologous breast cancer cells and the enhancement of photoacoustic imaging were observed in vitro. Singlet oxygen sensor green (SOSG) was used to verify the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of nanoparticles, and its SDT effect on breast cancer cells was evaluated by CCK8 cytotoxicity assay.Results:The size of the prepared CHP-NPs was uniform, the morphology was spherical "core-shell structure" , the particle size was (275.23±8.25)nm, and the surface potential was (-18.43±0.45)mV. It was observed that CHP-NPs could target homologous 4T1 cells under laser confocal microscopy. In vitro photoacoustic imaging experiments show that the photoacoustic signal of nanoparticles increases with the increase of its concentration. According to SOSG probe detection, CHP-NPs could produce ROS under ultrasonic irradiation.When CHP-NPs was incubated with 4T1 cells alone and no ultrasonic irradiation was used, the cell survival rate was not significantly affected. When the concentration was 0.6 mg/ml, the cell survival rate was still 95%. After ultrasonic irradiation, CCK8 experiment showed that the CHP-NPs had a significant SDT effect on breast cancer cells.Conclusions:The biomimetic nanomolecular probe of breast cancer cell membrane is successfully prepared. The probe has good ability to target homologous tumor, and can significantly enhance tumor photoacoustic imaging and SDT effect.
