Objective To obtain and identify dendritic cell (DC) from mouse bone marrow in vitro. Methods Recombinant mouse granulocyte and macrophage colony stimulus factor (GM-CSF) induction was used to induce mouse bone marrow cells to form dendritic cells in vitro. The morphological changes were observed with light inverted microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM). CD11c, MHCⅡ, and CD86 were identified with flow cytometry. The biological function was studied with antigen phagocytosis test and mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). Result The cultured DC from mouse bone marrow displayed the typical morphological characteristics of DC. Immature DC, which had high expression in CD11c and low expression in MHCⅡ and CD86, could phagocytize antigen. Mature DC, which had high expression in CD11c, MHCⅡ and CD86, could stimulate allogenic mixed lymphocyte proliferation. Conclusion DC can be generated from mouse bone marrow cells through cytokine induction in vitro and be used for further study associated with DC.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathologic changes of the lung epithelial tumor with epithelioid granuloma. Methods E-leven cases of lung malignant tumor with epithelial epithelioid granuloma reaction were studied according to the histological changes of lung epithelial tumor, immunophenotype, acid-fast staining, and tuberculosis PCR test results combined with follow-up data. Results The mean age was 62. 3 years, and male to female ratio was 10∶ 1. The main clinical manifestations displayed a cough, chest pain, fever and hemoptysis or bloody sputum. Nine cases were malignant tumors, tuberculosis or inflammatory lesions was 1 case each in pre-vious surgery. The tumor with epithelioid granuloma formation of the 11 cases displayed in the same site ( mixed) . The histopathologic changes of the lesions showed a epithelioid or typical tuberculous granulomas formation, including 4 cases of adenocarcinoma, 5 cases of squamous cell carcinoma and 2 cases of neuroendocrine tumors. The acid-fast bacilli staining was positive in 3 cases;6 cases were positive for PCR detection of mycobacterium tuberculosis. 5 patients died within 2 years due to various causes. Conclusions The lung epithelial tumors with epithelioid granuloma is more commonly found in the middle-aged, The signs and symptoms of the patients are similar to primary epithelial malignant tumors of the lung . The biological behavior was progressive with poor prognosis. The diagnosis of the lesions depends on pathological examination. It is very important to pay more attention to the pathological examination, especially in lung puncture samples, and the differential diagnosis for a definate diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of carotid artery ultrasonography,CT angiography (CTA)and digital subtraction angiography (DSA)for carotid artery dissection. Methods The image data of carotid artery ultrasonography,CTA,and DSA of 24 patients with carotid artery dissection were analyzed retrospectively. Results Twenty-four,16,and 21 patients were examined with DSA,CTA,and carotid artery ultrasonography respectively. The detection rates of carotid artery dissection with DSA,CTA, and carotid artery ultrasonography were 95. 8%,75.0%,and 71. 4% respectively. The DSA mostly showed the line-like sign (n=12,50 %). CTA and carotid artery ultrasonography mostly showed the double lumen sign;they were 37. 5%(n=6)and 52. 4%(n=11)respectively. Compared with DSA,the concordance rates of carotid artery ultrasonography and CTA were 66. 7% and 81. 3% respectively. There was no significant difference (Kappa=0. 39,P=0. 08 and Kappa=0. 43,P =0. 22 respectively). The concordance rate of ultrasonography in combination with CTA and DSA reached 87. 5%(n=15,Kappa=0. 67,P =0.047). There was significant difference. Conclusion DSA is a gold standard for the diagnosis of carotid artery dissection,and it is irreplaceable. Carotid artery ultrasonography in combination with CTA can improve the diagnostic rate. Carotid artery ultrasonography can be used as a screening method for carotid artery dissection.

Objective To explore the distribution of specific allergens for children in Sichuan Province and provide the evidences of clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods Totally 451 cases in West China Second University Hospital,from April to August of 2016,were detected for 20 kinds of allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) by a new reverse enzyme-allergosorbent test,SPSS 18.0 statistical analysis was used to evaluate allergen-specific IgE levels in different groups of age,gender and diverse population distribution of disease.Results A total of 282 cases among 451 subjects were detected as IgE positive and the positive rate was 62.53%,among which 248 cases were positive for inhaled allergen-specific IgE,and the positive rate was 54.99%.There were 261 positive cases in food allergen-specific IgE,and the positive rate was 57.87%.For inhaled allergens,the highest positive rate was dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (n=111,24.61%),then dermatophagoides farina (n=110,24.39%),and house dust (n=108,23.95%);For food allergens,the highest positive rate was milk (n=159,35.25%),then egg (n=111,24.61%),and house dust (n=108,23.95%).Conclusions Both Inhaled allergens and food allergens were the important cause of allergic disease for children in Sichuan area.Serum allergen specific IgE determination was helpful to understand the patient′s allergy status,and diagnose the allergic disease.

Objective:To observe the effects of auto-dendritic cell vaccine on T cells of patients with condyloma acuminatum(CA) related human papilloma virus(HPV) and its clinical outcome.Methods:73 patients with condyloma acuminata(CA) in the present study were positive of HPV-DNA and have been unsuccessfully treated with freezing,laser,or electric therapy combined with interferon anti-virus treatment for half a year.The peripheral blood samples were harvested from patients and the monouclear cells were extracted to cultivate DCs in presence of cytokines.Auto DCs were sensitized with corresponding HPV virus antigen of a patient to prepare the auto-dendritic cell vaccine.Then the vaccine were cultivated with auto T-cells and the proliferation of T cells were examined.Meanwhile,the auto-DC vaccine(1-4)?107 was also injected into the patients' inguinal lymph glands and its therapeutic effectiveness was observed.Results:The prepared DC-vaccine significantly promoted the proliferation of auto T cells compared with control group(P

BACKGROUND: According to present theories and our clinical experience, immune ablative and tolerance inducing theory is proposed. Immune ablative means to clear out mutate cell clones and without transfusion of hemopoietic stem cells afterwards; intolerance inducing means to induce animal models not to react to mutate somatic cells, which avoids relapse or new occurrence of autoimmune disease. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of immune-ablative and tolerance inducing therapy in treating animal model of immune polymyositis (PM). DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized, controlled animal experiment was performed at the Animal Experimental Center of Nanfang Hospital from December 2008 to April 2009. MATERIALS: One New Zealand rabbit, female, weighing 4.1 kg and 36 England guinea pigs, female, weighing 400-500 g, were used. METHODS: New Zealand rabbit's muscle tissue homogenate and complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) were injected into guinea pigs to make PM animal models. The 28 animal models were randomly divided into intense immune-ablative and tolerance inducing group (Busulfan 1 mg/kg, every 12 hours, totally 8 doses; followed by CTX 40 mg/kg per day for 4 days; then cyclosporine A (CsA) 3 mg/kg per day was given till animals were dead); cyclophosphamide (CTX) group: CTX was given, 10 mg/kg per day for 3days; immune-ablative and tolerance inducing group: Busulfan 0.8 mg/kg, CTX 30 mg/kg, CsA 3 mg/kg; the administration time and dose were the same as group 1. Control group was not treated.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Full blood count (FBC) and biochemical index were tested before and after treatment, and surviving time was recorded. In addition, muscle pathological changes were observed.RESULTS: Compared with control group, number of white cells was significantly decreased in the other groups, and hematopoiesis function gradually restored after administration. The number of white cells in the immune-ablative and tolerance inducing group was the most, and striated muscle pathology showed PM. Following administration, the glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase and creatine kinase of intense immune-ablative and tolerance inducing and immune-ablative and tolerance inducing groups were significantly reduced (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), but no obvious striated muscle pathological changes were found. The glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, lactic dehydrogenase and creatine kinase in the CTX and control groups remained unchanged. Survival time of intense immune-ablative and tolerance inducing group was the shortest among all groups, and there was no significant difference between CTX and control groups. The animals in immune-ablative and tolerance inducing group survived for the longest time. CONCLUSION: Immune-ablative and tolerance inducing therapy has preferable effect on treating animal models of PM, and its prognosis is better than intense immune-ablative and tolerance inducing therapy and regular CTX therapy.

Objective To assess the impact of donor age on the outcome of living donor kidney transplantation.Methods A total of 217 patients undergoing living donor kidney transplantation during 2004 to 2011 were enrolled in our retrospective study.The recipients were divided into different groups according to their donors' age or the age gaps between donors and recipients.A follow-up survey was conducted to evaluate the serum creatinine level and the incidence of complications after transplantation.Results As the donors age grew,the recipients' serum creatinine increased.The serum creatinine levels of patients with older donors(age gap＞5 years) at 1 month[(143.5±42.1) μmol/L vs (114.4±30.4) μmol/L],3 months (139.9±36.6)μmol/L vs (110.6±33.3) μ mol/L],1 year [(132.1±22.1) μmol/L vs (105.5±35.9) μmol/L] and 2years (132.0±45.4) μmol/L vs (97.2±17.5) μ mol/L] after operation were significantly higher than those with younger donors(age gap＜-5)(P＜0.05).The incidence of acute rejection (19.4％ vs 9.7％,P＜0.05) and chronic rejection (9.7％ vs 1.4％,P＜0.05) was significantly higher in the group with donors older than 50 years old than those with donors younger than 50 years old.But no significant difference was observed in the survival of the grafts or the recipients.Age gap between the donor and recipient was an independent risk factor for abnormal serum creatinine level at 2 years after transplantation (OR=5.010,P＜0.05).Conclusions Donor age is an important impact factor on the outcome of living kidney transplantation.Recipients of older living donation have poorer Prognosis.

Objective To explore the relationships among attachment,parental attachment and parental rearing style of adolescent depression.Methods 36 outpatients and hospital patients in Anhui Mental Health Center with depression and their parents were involved as the case group,33 age-,gender-,and education-matched high school students and their parents as the normal controls.The case group and control group were assessed with Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory (ECR) and Parental Rearing Pattern Questionnaire (EMBU).Results ① The score of attachment avoidance and anxiety dimension in the depression group were obviously higher than that of the control group(73.19 ± 16.63 vs 66.25 ± 12.91,62.76 ± 13.90 vs 51.97 ± 13.69,P ＜ 0.01) ;the score of mother's attachment anxiety in the depression group were significantly higher than that of the control group (72.06 ± 14.23 vs 57.42 ± 12.81),and there were significant differences between two groups (P ＜ 0.01).②The attachment avoidance was positively correlated with parental attachment avoidance in the depression group (r =0.534,r=0.488 ; P＜ 0.01).The attachment anxiety dimension was positively correlated with mother's attachment anxiety in depression group (r =0.532,P ＜ 0.01).Attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with parental warmness(r =-0.406,r =-0.462,P ＜ 0.01),however attachment avoidance had positive correlation with father's punishment and mother's rejection in depression group (r=0.395,r=0.468; P＜0.05).Father's attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with father's warmness(r =-0.527,P＜ 0.01),and mother's attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with mother's warmness (r =-0.491,P ＜ 0.01),which was positively correlated with mother's rejection (r =0.392,P ＜ 0.05).③ Regression analysis showed that mother's warmness rearing style had full mediating effect on the relationship between mother's attachment avoidance and attachment avoidance in depression group,and then mother's refused rearing style partly mediated the relationship between them.But father's warmness didn(t) have mediating effect on the relationship between father's attachment avoidance and attachment avoidance in depression group.Conclusion The attachment pattern is insecure in the depression group.Parenting attachment and rearing style significantly influence on adolescent depression attachment patterns,and mother's rearing style has mediating effect on the relationship between mother's attachment and depression attachment.

Objective To clarify the protective effect of nrsodeoxycholic acid ( UDCA ) on endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis in pancreatic β-cell of streptozotocin ( STZ )-induced diabetic rats.Methods Rats( n =40) received a single injection STZ( 50 mg/kg) intra-peritoneally and formed a β-cell injury model.Weight-matched normal rats( the control group,n =10 ) were injected with the buffer alone.STZ-treated rats with persistent random blood glucose higher than 16.7 mmol/L for 1 week were considered as diabetic status( n=14 ),then divided randomly into STZ-induced diabetes mellitus ( DM ) group ( n =7 ) and UDCA-treated DM group ( n =7 ).UDCA (40 mg· kg- 1,d-1 ) was administered daily by intragastric intubations throughout the experimental period (30 d).During the entire experiment,blood glucose in all rats was assessed.By the end of the experiment,all rats were sacrificed with the pancreas removed and the blood sample collected immediately.Fasting insulin levels were assayed by radioimmunoassay.The morphological changes of pancreatic β-cells apoptosis were determined by TUNEL assay.RNA in pancreas was abstracted and microarray containing 89 pieces of apoptosis related genes was applied.The related gene expressions were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.Results The concentration of blood glucose in diabetic rats was gradually decreased after UDCA treatment,but at the end of the experiment it was still higher than that in the normal control group.The treatment with UDCA raised the fasting insulin level in diabetic rats,but this concentration was significantly lower as compared to the control group.Based on TUNEL stained tissue sections,the percentage of β-cell apoptosis of UDCA-treated DM group was significantly lower than that of STZ-induced diabetic group(P＜0.05 ).Among 89 genes,42 genes up-regulated and 46 genes down-regulated in diabetic rats,some of which were ameliorated by UDCA treatment.The expressions of Caspase-3,Bax,Bip,and CHOP mRNA in pancreas of DM group were significantly up-regulated as compared with those in the control group ( P ＜ 0.05 ) ; while the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA was markedly down-regulated (P＜0.05 ).However,these parameters in the U DCA-treated animals showed a marked improvement.Conclusion Ursodeoxycholic acid seems to protect pancreatic β-cell from apoptosis in STZ-induced diabetes by attenuating the severity of endoplasmic reticulum stress.
