OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of tanshinone on inflammatory response in air-pouch model mice with artificial joint aseptic loosening. METHODS:Mice were randomly divided into blank control group(normal saline),titanium particle group (normal saline),tanshinone low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups(50,100,200 mg/kg),10 in each group. Air-pouch mod-els were induced. Except that mice were injected 0.5 mL normal saline into air-pouch in blank control group,other groups were in-jected 0.5 mL Titanium particle suspension(10 mg/mL)into air-pouch,continuously administrated medicines by 0.1 mL/10 g after 24 h,ig,for 14 d. After 24 h of last administration,the air-pouch was collected,air-pouch inflammation was observed by eyes and by microscopy after hematoxylin-eosin staining,and inflammatory cell density was calculated. Real-time quantitative poly-merase chain reaction method was conducted to detect the tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin 1β(IL-1β)mRNA expres-sion;enzyme-linked immunosorbent method was used to detect the TNF-α,IL-1β protein expression. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,air-pouch swelling was obvious in titanium particle group,much exudation and neovascular were observed,in-flammatory response was severe,inflammatory cell density was increased significantly(P<0.05);TNF-α,IL-1β mRNA and pro-tein expression were obviously enhanced(P<0.05). Compared with titanium particle group,air-pouch swelling was relieved in tan-shinone doses groups,exudation and neovascular were decreased,inflammatory response was relieved,inflammatory cell density was decreased significantly(P<0.05);TNF-α,IL-1β mRNA and protein expression were obviously decreased(P<0.05),with a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS:Tanshinone can effectively inhibit the aseptic inflammatory response in air-pouch model mice with artificial joint aseptic loosening.

Objective To explore the relationship between tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene polymorphisms in donors and recipients and the incidence and severity of acute graft-versus-host diseases (aGVHD) after unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alIo-HSCT). Methods Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TNFα-238 (G/A), TNFα-857 (C/T), TNFα-863 (C/A), TNFα-1031 (T/C), TNFβ + 252 (A/G) were analyzed by Multiplex SNaPshot analysis in 76 pairs of donors and recipients. Results Transplantation involving donors with TNFα-857 CC genotype resulted in a higher incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD than donors with CT genotype (91.3% vs 8. 7% , P =0. 039). In the 23 patients with grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD, no patients had TNFβ +252 AA genotype, 19 (82.6%) had GA genotype and 4 (17.4%) had GG genotype. There was a significant difference in the distribution pattern of the TNFβ +252 (AA, GA and GG) genotypes in these patients (P =0.03). There was no significant association of TNFα-238 (G/A), TNFα-863 (C/A) and TNFα-1031 (T/C) polymorphisms with the risk of aGVHD. Conclusion These results suggest donor TNFα-857 CC genotype is related to a higher incidence of grade Ⅱ -Ⅳ aGVHD, and patients with TNFβ +252 AA genotype have protection against the risk of grade Ⅱ -Ⅳ aGVHD.

Objective To establish a luciferase labeled McA-RH7777 hepatoma rat model,which could be used for gross observation to further observe the effect of selective ligation of the portal vein and bile duct on tumor growth and metastasis.Methods The luciferase gene was transfected into rat McA-RH7777 hepatoma cells with pCDH-puromycin-CMV as the carrier,which were subcutaneously inoculated into Buffalo rats.Tumor pieces were then heterotransplanted into the left lateral lobe of the allogenic rat liver to observe the tumor growth in vivo.After the successful hepatoma modeling,the rats were randomly divided into three groups,namely the implanted portal vein group with combined portal vein and bile duct ligation,the implanted portal vein group with single portal vein ligation and sham operation group.The rats were executed at the 1 st week and 2nd week after ligation,and the livers were dissected to record the tumor growth and metastasis inside and outside the liver,respectively.Results The tumor formation rates of Buffalo rats after subcutaneous and intrahepatic implantation were both 100%.The fluorescence signal implanted into the liver lobe could be observed in vivo after the intrahepatic implantation of luciferase transfected Luc-McA-RH7777 at 2nd week,the range and intensity of which increased over time.Only local tumor growth could be found at the 4th week,without obvious intrahepatic and lung metastasis.However,both an increased in situ tumor volume and the pulmonary metastasis could be observed in the implanted portal vein group with combined portal vein and bile duct ligation at 2nd week after the ligation.Immunohistochemistry showed AFP positive immunoreactions in the vast majority of intrahepatic tumor cells and Luc positive immunoreactions in part of tumor cells.Conclusion Luc-McA-RH7777 cells could be used to establish the heptoma rat model and the in vivo analysis within the Buffalo rat liver demonstrated that the combined ligation of the portal vein and bile duct can accelerate the development and metastasis of liver cancer.
