Objective:To investigate the efficacy of sequential therapy of CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) for relapsed/refractory mediastinal B lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL).Methods:One patient with relapsed/refractory mediastinal B-LBL treated with sequential therapy of CD19 and CD22 CAR-T who was admitted to Tongji Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology Tongji Medical College in March 2017 was reported. At 1, 3, 6, 12 and 18 months after CAR-T therapy, the indicators of primary disease remission were monitored and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results:The patient relapsed and progressed after third-line chemotherapy, and then received sequential therapy of CD19 and CD22 CAR-T. In the course of cellular immunotherapy, the patient presented grade 1 cytokine release syndrome. After active treatment, the patient got stable condition and was discharged. The patient came to the hospital for regular review, and the mediastinal mass of the patient was dynamically followed up. After CAR-T therapy, the mediastinal mass of the patient was significantly reduced, and the patient was in continuous remission for 18 months.Conclusions:Sequential therapy of CD19 and CD22 CAR-T provides a new therapeutic approach for relapsed/refractory B-LBL. For patients with poor curative effect of conventional chemotherapy, CAR-T therapy should be actively performed as soon as possible to improve the remission rate and the long-term prognosis of patients.

Objective:To study the effect of Jianpi Qinghua Recipe ( JPQHR) on angiotensin II/NADPH oxidase pathway in 5/6 nephrectomized rat renal failure model and the underlying mechanisms.
Methods:The animals were divided into 4 groups:the sham-operated group, the renal failure group, the JPQHR-treated group and the losartan-treated group. After 60-days therapy, serum nitrogen and creatinine were measured. The expression of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) protein and the expression of p47phox mRNA in renal tissue was determined. SOD and MDA were also examined.
Results:Compared with the sham-operated group, the levels of SCr and serum BUN and the AT1 protein and p47phox mRNA expression in the renal failure group were significantly increased. hTe activities of SOD in renal tissue from the renal failure group was signiifcantly down-regulated while MDA was up-regulated (P<0.05). Compared with the renal failure group, the levels of SCr and serum BUN and the AT1 protein and p47phox mRNA expression in both JPQHR-treated group and losartan-treated group were signiifcantly decreased. hTe activities of SOD in renal tissue from JPQHR-treated group and losartan-treated group were signiifcantly up-regulated whereas the content of MDA were down-regulated (P<0.05). Compared with the losartan-treated group, the activities of SOD in renal tissue from the JPQHR-treated group was obviously increased (P<0.05), the decrease in AT1 protein and p47phox mRNA was more evident but not statistically different (P>0.05). The level of SCr and serum BUN and the content of MDA were also not statistically different (P>0.05).
Conclusion:hTrough decrease the expression of angiotensin II and NADPH oxidase, JPQHR can reduce the oxidative stress in chronic renal failure and delay the renal ifbrosis progression.

AIM: To investigate the potential of murine epidermal stem cell (ESC) differentiation after seeded in a biodegradable carrier and implanted subcutaneously into syngeneic recipient mice. METHODS: ES cells were induced in vitro to differentiate into ESCs. After stained with a fluorescent dye Hoechst 33342, these ESCs were seeded into a polyglycolic acid (PGA) net containing collagen gel, functioning as a cell carrier, and implanted subcutaneously into 129/J mice, which were syngeneic to these stem cells. RESULTS: The ESCs kept alive in the implant when observed under a fluorescent microscopy 3 weeks or longer after implantation, and could differentiate into hair follicle - like structure,glandular structure, and gave rise to additional structures displaying features resembling native dermis. No apparent rejection or severe side effects were observed at least 10 weeks post- implantation. CONCLUSION: It is feasible to use these ESCs as seed cells in the study to fabricate dermal equivalent having the potential to develop dermal appendages.

Nowadays the role of genetic findings in determining the diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has become more valuable. To improve and validate the detection of clonal chromosomal aberrations in leukemia, we designed a combined application of karyotyping with multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and addressed the expression and distribution of fusion genes among the subtypes of Chinese adult patients with de novo AML. Multiplex RT-PCR assays were performed on 477 samples from newly diagnosed AML patients, and cytogenetic data were obtained from 373 of them by R or G banding techniques and those in some cases were confirmed by FISH. The PCR products in some suspected cases were tested by two-directional sequencing. The results showed that except unqualified samples, fusion genes were detected by multiplex RT-PCR in 211 of 474 patients (44.51%), including AML1-ETO, CBFβ-MYH11, PML-RARα, PLZF-RARα, NPM-RARα, MLL rearrangements, BCR-ABL, DEK-CAN, SET-CAN, TEL-PDGFR, TLS-ERG, AML1-MDS1 (EVI-1). In 373 patients, who took both multiplex RT-PCR and karyotype analysis, the detection rate of chromosomal aberrations by using multiplex RT-PCR and karyotyping was 160/373 (42.89%) and 179/373 (47.98%) respectively, and the combination could optimize the detection rate of clonal genetic abnormalities to 216/373 (57.90%). The PCR results from 11 cases "normal" in karyotyping but abnormal in RT-PCR for MLL rearrangements were confirmed by two-directional sequencing. It is concluded that karyotype studies remain the cornerstone for genetic testing; conventional cytogenetics and molecular-based methods are complementary tests for the detection of clonal genetic aberrations in AML, especially for the cryptic or submicroscopic aberrations. Once a genetic marker has been identified by combined analysis, it could be used to monitor residual disease during/after chemotherapy, by quantitative RT-PCR and/or FISH.
