AIM: IL-12 acts upon T lymphocytes and activates its receptor complexes of ?1/?2 ,and so IL-12 can regulate TH1/TH2 balance. Our study is aimed at IL-12-inducing apoptosis of T cells and expression and signal conduction of Bcl-2 during T cell apoptosis. METHODS: The apoptosis of T cells was detected by Annexin V staining cytometry and the expression of Bcl-2 under different inhibitors were detected by the method of semi-quantitative PCR. RESULTS: IL-12 can induce the human leukemic T cell line(TIB-152) and the human lymphoma T cell line(HTB-176) and the normal human T cells to undergo apoptosis. The Bcl-2 expression at 6 hours of treatment with IL-12 increased aparently,and reached the max at 24 hours. But IL-12 did influence Bcl-2 expression. IL-12 can induce T cells to undergo apoptosis which is characterized by early membrane changes. CONCLUSION: The inducing effect is correlated with the concentration of IL-12 and the maturation of T cells. Bcl-2 takes part in the progression of T cells' apoptosis as a apoptosis mediator.

Objective To investigate the expressions of survivin, cyclooxyenase-2 (COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and their relationship with angiogenesis in condyloma acuminatum (CA) tissues. Methods Immunohistochemistry using PowerVision staining kit was performed to detect the expression of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF protein in 60 CA tissue samples from patients and 21 normal skin samples from the foreskin of human controls. At the same time, the microvessel density was determined in CA tissues by staining blood vessel endothelium with anti-CD105 monoclonal antibody. Results The positivity rate of survivin and COX-2 expression was 56.67% and 63.33%, in CA tissues, 9.52% and 0 in normal skin tissues, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups of tissue samples in the positivity rate and intensity of survivin and COX-2 expression (all P < 0.05). VEGF was expressed in all of the CA tissues and normal skin tissues, while the intensity of VEGF expression was statistically different between the two groups of tissue samples (P < 0.05). The MVD was 16.38 ± 5.46 and 0.62 ± 0.44 in CA tissues and normal skin tissues, respectively (P < 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the expressions of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF, as well as between MVD and the expressions of survivin and COX-2 in CA tissues. Conclusion The expression levels of survivin, COX-2 and VEGF are significantly higher in CA tissues than in normal skin tissues.

Objective:To investigate the treatment outcome of chemotherapy regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome in the treatment of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL).Methods:The clinical data of 1 AITL patient with severe clinical symptoms admitted to Weihai Municipal Hospital in July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:The 74-year-old male patient was presented with the manifestations of rash, lymph node enlargement, bloating and fever. He was pathologically diagnosed as AITL by lymph node biopsy. In the early stage of treatment, due to severe clinical symptoms and poor therapeutic effect, the treatment regimens were constantly adjusted. CHOPE, etoposide + chidamide + thalidomide +dexamethasone + cyclosporine, brentuximab vedotin + bendamustine + dexamethasone + cyclosporine + thalidomide +chidamide regimens were used successively, and the disease progressed after short-term complete remission. Finally complete remission was obtained again after a multi-drug combination regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome, following the maintenance treatment of azacitidine combined with chidamide, and the disease condition of the patient remained stable.Conclusions:The chemotherapy regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome can achieve a good therapeutic effect for relapsed/refractory AITL.

Objective To analyze the role of telehealth?based dialysis registration systems in real?time and dynamic reflection of renal anemia in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and discuss the prospect of its application in dialysis registration management. Methods The Red China project was to build up a dialysis registration system based on the WeChat mobile terminal platform. Demographic and baseline laboratory parameters such as age, gender, primary disease, dialysis age, creatinine were recorded in this system. Hemoglobin (Hb) level was monthly recorded. The platform generated Hb statistics report for each HD center monthly, including the detection rate, target rate and the distribution level of Hb, and released it to physicians through the WeChat terminal of mobile phone. After that, physicians could change the treatment of anemia individually on basis of this report. Here the demographic and baseline laboratory parameters, the detection rate, target rate, the average level and the distribution of Hb from June 2015 to October 2017 after the project launched were analyzed. Results From June 2015 to October 2017, 8392 maintenance HD patients from 28 HD centers in Shanghai were enrolled, of whom 5059(60.3%) were male.The average rate age was (60.5 ± 13.7) years old. Baseline average Hb was (108.3±16.0) g/L. Baseline detection rate and target rate were 54.2%and 47.5%, respectively. After 28 months follow?up, the detection rate of Hb increased from 54.2% to 73.6% (P<0.001), the target rate of Hb increased from 47.5% to 56.1% (P<0.001), and the level of average Hb rose from (108.3±16.0) g/L to (110.7±16.0) g/L. The difference between average Hb in two consecutive months was less than 1.3 g/L. Conclusions The telehealth?based dialysis registration system can timely report the anemia situation of HD patients, which may improve the awareness rate of anemia, the degree of attention and the compliance of anemia monitoring, so as to improve the detection rate and target rate of Hb and reduce the fluctuation of Hb, which helps to maintain the HD patients to correct anemia in a timely, stable and long?term way. The telehealth?based dialysis registration system, as an improved mode of dialysis registration is a promising way for long?term management of renal anemia in dialysis patients.

Objectives:This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of bendamustine in combination with rituximab (BR regimen) for the treatment of newly diagnosed indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-iNHL) and elderly mantle cell lymphoma (eMCL) .Methods:From December 1, 2020 to September 10, 2022, a multi-center prospective study was conducted across ten Grade A tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province, China. The BR regimen was administered to evaluate its efficacy and safety in newly diagnosed B-iNHL and eMCL patients, and all completed at least four cycles of induction therapy.Results:The 72 enrolled patients with B-iNHL or MCL were aged 24-74 years, with a median age of 55 years. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status scores of 0-1 were observed in 76.4% of patients, while 23.6% had scores of 2. Disease distribution included follicular lymphoma (FL) (51.4% ), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) (33.3% ), eMCL (11.1% ), and the unknown subtype (4.2% ). According to the Ann Arbor staging system, 16.7% and 65.3% of patients were diagnosed with stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ lymphomas, respectively. Following four cycles of BR induction therapy, the overall response rate was 98.6%, with a complete response (CR) rate of 83.3% and a partial response (PR) rate of 15.3%. Only one eMCL patient experienced disease progression during treatment, and only one FL patient experienced a relapse. Even when evaluated using CT alone, the CR rate was 63.9%, considering the differences between PET/CT and CT assessments. The median follow-up duration was 11 months (range: 4-22), with a PFS rate of 96.8% and an OS rate of 100.0%. The main hematologic adverse reactions included grade 3-4 leukopenia (27.8%, with febrile neutropenia observed in 8.3% of patients), grade 3-4 lymphopenia (23.6% ), grade 3-4 anemia (5.6% ), and grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia (4.2% ). The main non-hematologic adverse reactions such as fatigue, nausea/vomiting, rash, and infections occurred in less than 20.0% of patients.Conclusion:Within the scope of this clinical trial conducted in China, the BR regimen demonstrated efficacy and safety in treating newly diagnosed B-iNHL and eMCL patients.
