Objective To study the immunosuppression mechanism induced by ultraviolet (UV) and cis-urocanic acid. Method The auto lymphocyte proliferation test with Langerhans' cell (LC) in guinea -pig was performed. Results In exposure to low dose of UVB (25 J/m2) radiation, the inhibition rate of lymphocyte proliferation stimulated by LC was 10. 5%, the inhibition rates of UVB radiation in doses of 50 J/m2 and 100 J/m2 were 22.4% or 50%, respectively. The lymphocyte proliferation was almost completely suppressed by200J/m2 UVB radiation, while the inhibition of LC function by cis-urocanic acid was weak. Conclusion UVB significantly inhibits LC auto -stimulation in dose -dependent way, which may play an important role in UVB induced immunosuppression.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of resection and cryotherapy combined with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) for the treatment of vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) with giant papillae (GP). Eight patients (16 eyes involved) with VKC, characterized by GP on the upper tarsal conjunctiva, underwent resection and cryotherapy in combination with AMT. The follow-up lasted for 3-22 months. The results showed that corneal shield ulcers and superficial punctuate keratitis healed during the first week after surgery and did not recur. Fourteen eyes (87.5 %) were symptom-free 1 month after surgery, and no GP, ectropion, trichiasis and other complications were noted, but the blood vessels of upper tarsal conjunctiva could not be clearly seen and a little conjunctival scar was observed. Recurrence of GP was observed in 2 eyes (12.5 %), with the area being less and irritation milder as compared with those before the operation. Among the two eyes, one eye was treated by cyclosporine eyedrops with improvement, but the other eye showed no improvement after the treatment, and underwent a second surgery with a cotton patch soaked in fluorouracil applied onto the supratarsal area after resection and cryotherapy. Four months after the treatment the patient presented no symptoms and GP did not recur. It is concluded that the resection and cryotherapy combined with AMT is an effective and safe treatment for VKC with GP.

BACKGROUND: Homogenate meals, as a replacement of normal diet, can be used in either hospitals or families. The homogenate meal as nutritious supplements should contain multiple components when it is applied in senior patients with chronic diseases because of the longterm application and complex complications.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of longterm tube feed of finished product of homogenate meal on the nutritious supplements of senior patients.DESIGN: A cross-sectional study based on diagnosis.SETTING, PARTICIPANTS and METHODS: Totally 24 senior patients with chronic diseases who had been used self-made finished products of homogenate meal for more than 1 year were selected for nutritious supplement from Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. The changes of nutritious index at before and 4, 8 and 12 months after supplement were observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Anthropometric measurement index and laboratorial index of 24 senior patients with chronic diseases before and after intervention were compared.RESULTS: Serous albumin at before nutritious supplements, and 4, 8 and 12 months after supplements were[ (36.4 ± 4.03), (36.60 ± 4.42),(38.20 ± 3.77), and(40.40 ± 3. 33) ] g/L respectively. Phosphorus and peripheral lymphocytes were significantly heightened while blood sugar began to decrease since 4 months after intervention, which all had significant differences compared with that of before intervention( t =2. 196 -2. 356,P <0.05; t=2.958-3.431. P <0.01) .Anthropometric measurement index also improved compared with that of before intervention.CONCLUSION: Longterm application of finished product of homogenate meal can improve the nutritious status of senior patients with chronic diseases.

The method of gene transfer into corneal endothelium was investigated to provide a foundation for the study of TGF-beta 1 gene transfer to inhibit corneal graft rejection. Two days after direct injection of pMAM TGF-beta 1 mediated by liposome into the anterior chamber of rabbits, one half of corneas were made into paraffin slides and the endothelial layer was carefully torn from the other half to make a single layer slide of endothelia. By means of immunohistochemical technique, the plasmid pMAM TGF-beta 1 expression product TGF-beta 1 in the endothelia was detected. Specific TGF-beta 1 expression was positive in the endothelia on both the paraffin slide and the single layer slide. The results showed that by direct injection into the anterior chamber, foreign plasmid DNA could be transferred into the endothelia and its expression was obtained. This may provide a foundation for further study on TGF-beta 1 participating in local induction of corneal immune tolerance.
