The hemolysin (IgM) production by mouse splenic lymphocytes immunized with sheep red blood cell in vitro was enhanced by lower concentrations (0.1-0.4?g/ml) of total glucosidcs of pacony (TGP), but diminished by higher concentrations (0.4-3.2?g/ml) of the drug. The dual effects of TGP on ConA induoed proliferation of mouse splenocytcs was also observed by in vitro treatment with TGP over a range of 0.05-1.6?g/ml. These results suggested that effects of TGP on immune system was definitely depend on the concentrations of TGP administered.The specific helper T (Th) cclls were induced by irradiation with ~(60)Co at 800R plus primed thymocytes and were measured by the adoptiver transfer system. It was found that the higher generation of Th cells incroosed further by TGP (5mg/kg, ip).

Captopril (CPT, 40, 80mg/kg, ig) enhanced serum superoxide dismutaseactivity, and suppressed luminal-dependent chemiluminescence of peritoneal macrophagesin mice. CPT (160mg/kg, ig) had a suppressive action on lipid peroxidation of mice. Theseresults suggested that CPT had antioxygen free radical effect or anti-lipid peroxidationeffects. CPT at 25 ?g/ml concentration suppressed ConA-induced prolifeation of mousesplenic T lymphocytes in vitro, which suggested that CPT had a suppressive effct on Tlymphocyte function.

Objective To evaluate the value of diagnose of colon carcinoma by colonoscopy and double contrast radiography.Methods The results and data of radiography diagnosis,colonscopy diagnosis,biopsy and post-operation pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results The rate of accordance by X-ray diagnosis was 85.4%,colonscopy 80.5% and biopsy 84.6%.Conclusion The method of examination of colon double contrast radiography preceeds to colonoscopy examination when the patients were suspected suffering from the right colon or left colon carcinoma accompanying by masses;colonoscopy is the first method of diagnosis to choose when the patients were suspected suffering from carcinoma of sigmoid colon or colon polyps undergoing malignant changes.

Poly ( aniline_luminol ) composite nanowires were synthesized by chemical oxidation using ammonium peroxydisulfate. In contrast to the maximum fluorescence emitting wavelength of luminol at 425 nm, the maximum fluorescence emitting wavelength of the polymeric luminol in the composite nanowires was red shifted to 465 nm obviously. The poly ( aniline_luminol) composite nanowires were modified on graphite electrode surface by drop coating, forming a stable poly ( aniline_luminol ) composite nanowires film. The composite nanowires film modified electrode presented favorable electrochemiluminescence ( ECL ) performances, and the ECL response could be enhanced by hydrogen peroxide. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the modified electrode provided a linear range of 5. 0×10-9-1. 0×10-5 mol/L for the detection of hydrogen peroxide with a detection limit of 2 ×10-9 mol/L.

Objective To test the expression of serine/arginine rich splicing factor 1(SRSF1)and apoptosis inhibiting factor(Survivin) in prostate cancer,and study their correlation with the pathological features of prostate cancer,so as to put forward the new targets in the treatment of prostate cancer. Methods SRSF1 and Survivin protein was determined in 20 prostate tissue samples including prostate cancer(n=12)and benign prostat?ic hyperplasia(n=8)by immunohistochemical SP method. SRSF1 and Survivin was correlated to pathological features,and both the relevance was analyzed(no related reports at home and abroad). Results The positive expression rate of SRSF1 protein in prostate cancer tissue cells was 76.37± 5.06%,which was significantly higher than that of benign prostatic hyperplasia(11.30%±1.09%,P<0.05);the positive expression rate of Survivin protein in prostate cancer tissue cells was 86.93%±3.21%,which was significantly higher than that of benign prostatic hyperplasia(17.67%±1.99%, P<0.05);SRSF1 and Survivin protein expressed in prostate cancer organizations and were positively correlated to pathological Gleason grading, and there was significant correlation(P<0.05). Conclusion SRSF1 and Survivin protein were highly expressed in adenocarcinoma tissue,which were significantly increased than that of benign hyperplasia of prostate tissue. The positive expression SRSF1 and Survivin protein were positively cor?related to pathological Gleason grading.The expression of Survivin protein was elevated with the expression of SRSF1 protein in prostate cancer. These preliminary evidence indicated that SRSF1 may up?regulate the expression of Survivin,and thus promote the occurrence and development of prostate cancer.

Objective To explore CT and MR manifestations and its diagnostic value of liver cystic lesions.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 78 cases with liver cystic lesions were collected,including 21 cases of inflammatory cystic lesions,30 cases of tumor cystic degeneration and 27 cass of congenital growth cysts.Results The detected rate of liver cystic lesions with CT and MRI was all 100%.For inflammatory cystic lesions,tumor cystic degeneration and growth cyst,CT diagnostic accurate rate was 76%,90% and 93%,respectively,and MR was 83%,93% and 100% respectively.CT and MR manifestations:Of all inflammatory cystic lesions,hepatic abscess and liver echinococcosis cyst appeared as cystic occupying lesion,the cysts were of tension,low-density band on CT or water-like signal intensity on MR around the lesions in hepatic abscesses.Liver echinococcosis cysts were of big cyst with small cyst sign and enhanced moderately in cystic wall post contrast-enhanced scan.The metastasis cystic tumors showed single or multiple cystic lesions and mild or moderate circular enhancement.The primary liver tumor's cystc degenerative lesions showed cyst-solid lesions on CT and MR,and were of enhanced manifestations of the primary tumors.Growth cysts were single or multiple low-density or water-like signal intensity,generally there was not enhanced.Conclusion CT and MR have great diagnostic value for the location and nature of cystic lesions.

Mechanism of Immunomodulatory actions of total glucosides of paeony ( TGP ) was studied by McAb indirect immunofluorescence. TGP 5 mg/( kg?d ) ip for 8d suppressed DTH, that was enhanced by cyclophosphamide( Cy), and decreased L3T4+/Lyt-2+ 〔 (Th/i)/(Ts /c) 〕 cell ratio in ICR mice .TGP 5 mg/ ( kg?d ) ip for 5d enhanced DTH that was suppressed by Cy, and increased the L3T4+/Lyt-2 + cell ratio in ICR mice. The same dose of TGP ip for 5d promoted the hemolysin production of spleen cells, that was suppressed by Cy, increased the L3T4+/Lyt-2 + cell ratio in BLAB/c mice. The results suggest that immunomodulatory actions of TGP might be brought about by altering Th/Ts cell ratio.
