Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fish Polysacchoride(GPS)was observed to have mitogenic activity on murine spleen cell proliferation in vitro,The results showed that this mitogenic activity of GPS may be directed to B Iymphocytes,i.e.GPS is a new mitogen of murine B lymphocytes.Furthermore,it was found that B lymphocytes stimulated by GPS was M? depedent and T cell-indepedent.On the contrary,antibodies and IL-2 production was inhibited by GPS in vivo.

RNA methyltransferase is responsible for transferring methyl and resulting in methylation on the bases or ribose ring of RNA, which existed widely but mostly remains an open question. A recombinant protein PH1948 predicting RNA methyltransferase from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 has been crystallized. The crystals of selenomethionyl PH1948 belong to space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a=207.0 A, b=43.1 A, c=118.2 A, b=92.1 degrees , and diffract X-rays to 2.2 A resolution. The V(M) value was determined to be 2.8 A3/Da, indicating the presence of four protein molecules in the asymmetric unit.

Objective To investigate the cytotoxic effects of human γδT cells on hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vitro.Methods Normal human PBMC were activated by IPP and rhIL-2.The expansion of γδT cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.The concentration of interferon gamma in the supernatants was detected by ELISA.The cytotoxicity of activated lymphocytes against hepatocellular carcinoma cells were measured by the lactate dehydrogenase release assay in vitro.Results After PBMC activated by IPP and rhIL-2 for 10 days,the proportion of γδT cells were expanded from (4.34±1.79)% to (55.65±6.88 )%.The secretion of interferon gamma expanded significantly after PBMC stimulated by IPP,and reached its peak value at the seventh day.The secretion of interferon gamma is lower if it has no IPP.The activated lymphocytes stimulated by IPP were detected to have cytotoxicity in vitro against human hepatocellular carcinoma ceils.Conclusion The high proportion of γδT cells can be gained in human PBMC activated by IPP,PBMC stimulated by IPP can secret interferon gamma effectively and the activated γδT cells have high cytotoxlcity in vitro against human hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol and ketamine on antigen-induced bronehoconstriction and microvascular leakage in rats.Methods Thirty SD rats of both sees weighing 150-200 g were sensitized with ovalbumin 1 mg, aluminium hydroxide 200 mg and devitalized Bordetella pertusis (6 ? 109 ) adminisered intraperitoneally 2 weeks before experiment. The animals were anesthetized with pentobarbital 30 mg ? kg-1 ip, tracheotomized and mechanically ventilated (VT = 10 ml? kg-1 , RR = 70 bpm) . The animals were randomly divided into 5 groups with 6 animals in each group: group I received normal saline iv group II propofol 50 mg?kg-1?h-1 iv group III propofol 100 mg?kg-1?h-1 iv group IV ketamine 50 mg?kg-1?h-1 iv; and group V ketamine 100 mg? kg-1? h-1 iv. Two minutes after propofol or ketamine administration Evan's blue 30 mg?kg-1 was given iv. Five minutes after dye injection ovalbumin 15 mg?kg-1 was injected iv to trigger asthmatic attack which was maintained for 30 min when airway pressure was measured. Then the animals were sacrificed by bleeding. Heart and lungs were removed for determination of lung coefficient( wet lung weight/body weight) , wet lung/dry lung ratio, lung extravascular water content [ (wet lung weight - dry lung weight/wet lung weight ? 100% ] and lung Evans blue content (formamide extraction method) . Results Propofol and ketamine significantly attenuated ovalbumin-induced bronchoconstiction( P
