Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of B cell activating factor (BAFF) and disease activity in the patients with dermatomyositis (DM).Methods Serum BAFF levels of 61 patients with DM and 25 matched healthy controls were measured by ELISA.The results of the two groups were compared using unpaired Mann-Whitney U test and the relevance was analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis.Results Serum levels of BAFF in DM patients were significantly higher compared to healthy controls [(274 7±264 6) pg/ml 与 (832±170) pg/ml,Z=-5.492,P＜0.01].A cross-sectional assessment revealed that serum BAFF levels were positively correlated with global disease activity (r=0.501,P＜0.001),muscle disease activity (r=0.303,P＜0.05),and cutaneous disease activity (r=0.467,P＜0.01).High serum BAFF levels were associated with increased incidence of interstitial lung disease (x2=17.238,P＜0.01).The longitudinal study showed modest correlations between serum BAFF levels and global disease activity (r=0.658,P＜0.01),muscle disease activity (r=0.307,P＜0.05),as well as cutaneous disease activity (r=0.565,P＜0.01).Conclusion Serum levels of BAFF correlate with disease activity in DM patients.The results of this study suggest that BAFF is a serological biomarker for DM disease activity.

Objective To investigate the metabolic differences of Tacrolimus in different transplant recipients. Methods A retrospective study was conducted, 30 patients of the organ transplant admitted to organ transplantation center of General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces from January 2002 to August 2012 were enrolled, and they were divided into combined liver and kidney transplant (SLK) group, single liver transplant group and single renal transplant group, 10 cases in each group. The SLK group and the simple liver transplantation group were given the same drug regimen, methylprednisolone injection was given during operation, and tacrolimus+ mycophenolate mofetil+ prednisone triple immunosuppressive therapy was taken after operation, on the first day after operation, the initial dose of tacrolimus was given 0.06 mg·kg-1·d-1 divided into 2 times taken orally, and on the third day after operation, the concentration of tacrolimus was detected; after operation group for 2 - 4 days, single renal transplantation group was given tacrolimus the initial dose of tacrolimus 0.15 mg·kg-1·d-1 was divided into 2 parts for twice oral administration, after 2 - 3 days of the above treatment, monitoring the concentration of tacrolimus began. One month after transplantation, the metabolic differences of tacrolimus among the three groups were compared.Results One month after operation, the oral tacrolimus doses (μg·kg-1·d-1: 74.78±32.65 vs. 80.62±24.02, 85.58±16.78) and the monitored blood drug concentration (μg/L: 6.64±2.73 vs. 7.50±3.08, 7.46±3.20) in SLK group were lower than either the single liver transplantation group or single renal transplantation group, but the comparisons among the three groups, there were no statistically significant differences(allP > 0.05).Conclusions In SLK group, the protective effect of transplanted liver on transplanted kidney may be related to the length of postoperative time. Liver transplantation performed within post-operative one month has no protective effect on the transplanted kidney.

SUMOylation is a post - translational modification consisting of covalent conjugation of ubiquitin - like proteins called small ubiquitin related modifier ( SUMO ) . SUMO modification has been shown to significantly alter protein activity, which can modulate protein stability, affect protein-protein interactions, and modify protein localization and trafficking. This process adds another layer of control in eukaryote gene expression, and it regulates both transcriptional activation and repression. This article reviews the current situation and future development of SUMOylation in ophthalmology.
