SUMMARY Lysosomal storage diseases are a group of genetic disorders that result from the defect in lysosomal function. Signs and symptoms are variable, it is difficult to diagnose this group of disease merely by the clinical manifestation. The diagnosis usually is made by measuring the activity of the corresponding enzyme. Gene mutational analysis is useful for the diagnosis of some of the lysosome storage diseases. The treatment has focused on the replacement of the defective enzyme responsible for the disease and the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Both of them have achieved exciting outcomes in some of the diseases.

Objective: To study psychosocial factors and immunity of patients with generalized anxiety disorder Method: 30 patients with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), 25 patients with neurotic depression and 32 normal controls were collected and assessed with LES (life event scale), SCSQ (simplified coping style questionnaire) and EPQ (Eysenck personality questionnaire) The blood level of IL-2, and rates of NK cell and CD3+ cell of them were also measured Result: The number of negative life events and LEU of negative life events of GAD group were higher that of normal controls, but lower than that of neurotic depression group Their total life events were also more than that of normal controls They had less positive coping than normal controls, more negative coping than both normal controls and patients with neurotic depression Their N score of EPQ was higher than that of normal control and had no significant different to that of patients with neurotic depression They also had higher levels of IL-2 than that of the other two groups There was no significant difference in rates of NK cell and CD3+ cell among all three groups The level of IL-2 was negatively correlated to the number of total life events and L score of EPQ, positively correlated to the rate of NK cell Conclusion: Patients with GAD have psychosocial stress in their life, they incline to negative coping, having unstable mood and impaired immune function Psychosocial stress has influence on immunity

Objective To explore the fluctuation of cytokine mRNA expression level in a novel T-cell-mediated immune hepatic fibrosis model induced by repeatedly injections of Concanavalin A in BALB/c mice. Methods BALB/c mice were divided into different groups. Model group mice were injected weekly up to 20 weeks with Concanavalin A (15mg/kg), via retro-orbital venous plexus under ether anesthesia. Normal control group mice were treated in the same manner weekly with normal saline. Twenty-four hours after Concanavalin A challenge at 1, 5, 12 and 20 week, 8 mice from each time were killed by cervical dislocation, repectively. The livers of different group were excised and fixed in 10% formalin for HE staining and Gomori Ag staining or frozen in optimal cutting temperature (O.C.T.) media in liquid nitrogen for immunohistochemical staining for CD4 +T or CD8 +T cell. After extracting total RNA from liver tissues, IL-2, IL-4, IL-10 and transforming factor ?1 messenger RNA were amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. PCR products were electrophoresed on agrose containing ethidium bromide and visualized under ultraviolet light. Densitometric RT-PCR data were standardized with ?-actin signals. Results The histological change of HE staining and Gomori Ag staining indicated the fibrogenesis in model group mice. Immunohistochemical staining for CD4 + or CD8 + T cell indicated that the infiltrating lymphocytes in liver parenchyma were mainly CD4 +T lymphocytes. IL-2 mRNA expression level only increased after the first injection of Concanavalin A. The expression levels of IL-4, IL-10 and transforming growth factor ?1 mRNA significantly increased over the whole experiment period as compared with control group. Conclusions Repeated administration of Concanavalin A can induce T-cell-mediated immune hepatic fibrosis model in BALB/c mice. The expression levels of IL-4, 10 and TGF-?1 increase over the whole experiment period and may play an important role in creating mouse fibrotic model.
