Objective To investigate the levels, phenotypes and functions of regulatory T cells (Treg) and Th17 cells in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients and assess the role of imbalance between Treg and Th17 cells in the pathogenesis of SSc. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 31 SSc patients and 33 healthy controls were analyzed for the expression of CD4, CD25, CD45RA, the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4), FoxP3, and IL-17 using flow cytometry. Treg immunosuppression capacities were measured in co-cultured experiments. The expressions of IL-17A, IL-22, IL-6 and IL-1β were measured by FlowcytoMix. The expression of FoxP3, CTLA-4, IL-17A, and RORC mRNA were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The independent samples t-test was used to compare data between the groups. Results The frequency of Treg cells was significantly elevated in SSc [(3.6 ±1.1)%] compared with controls [(2.0±0.8)%, t=6.88, P<0.01)] and the expression of CTLA-4 was lower in Treg cells of SSc (P=0.034). The expression of CTLA-4 and FoxP3 mRNA was lower in SSc compared with controls (P<0.05), the immunosuppressive capacity of Treg cells were diminished in SSc (P=0.034). Th17 cells were increased in SSc (P<0.01); the levels of IL-17A, IL-22, IL-6 and IL-1β in the serums of SSc were higher than the controls (P<0.05). In SSc, CD25+FoxP3+IL-17+cells were increased[0.075%±0.032)%vs (0.049±0.027)%, t=3.52, P=0.029], but no difference of CD25+FoxP3+IL-17- was observed when compared with control. The expression of IL-17A and RORC mRNA were increased in SSc (P<0.01, respectively). Conclusion Both Treg and Th17 cells are increased in patients of SSc. Treg increases along with the deficiency of phenotype and function. FoxP3+IL-17+co-express cells are increased, and the balance between Treg and Th17 cells is broken.

Objective To evaluate the effect and mechanism of rt-PA combined with high pressure oxygen (HPO)on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods The model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was constructed by using middle cerebral artery occlusion.The neurological function score;brain index,water content and infarction volume;SOD;LDH;NOS;MDA;LD;NO and NOS were measured.The protein and mRNA expressions of iNOS,BDNF,p75NTR and TrkB were also detected by RT-PCR and Western blot to evaluate and compare the protective effect of rt-PA combined HPO therapy. Results rt-PA combined HPO could significantly decrease the neurological function score;brain index,water content,and infarction volume;SOD;NOS;MDA;LD;NO and NOS but increase LDH content and the weight of rats,compared with rt-PA.In addition,rt-PA combined HPO could increase BNDF and TrKB expressions and downregulate the expressions of iNOS and p75NTR,compared with rt-PA (P<0.05).Conclusion The rt-PA combined HPO therapy has a greater protective effect than rt-PA therapy and its mechanism might be related to having antioxidant effects, increasing the expressions of BDNF and TrKB,and decreasing the expressions of iNOS and p75NTR.
