OBJECTIVETo investigate effects of the variation of immune function in high humidity environment in different time, and lay a foundation for further study of the related mechanism.
METHODThirty SD rats were divided into 3 groups (n = 10): 20 day group, 40 day group in 90% relative humidity chamber and control group in normal relative humidity. Peripheral blood and spleens were collected to detect the levels of T lymphocyte subsets by Flow Cytometery.
RESULTSIn peripheral blood of the 20 day group rats, the CD3+ %, CD4+ %, CD8+ % and CD4+/CD8+ were 52.91 +/- 6.27, 37.80 +/- 4.11, 14.85 +/- 3.73 and 2.72 +/- 0.82 separately. Expect CD3+ %, they all had significant differences (P < 0.05). In addition, the data of the 40 day group rats showed no diversity in statistics. In spleen, CD8+ % of the 20 day group rats was 6.23 +/- 2.87 with significant differences (P < 0.05) and IgG, IgA and IgM did not change a lot in blood serum of the high humidity groups except C3 of the 20 days group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONIn high humidity environment, the immune function of the rats increased in the initial stage. As time went on, the immune function gradually went to normal level through the self adjustment.

Objective:To explore influence of thrombus aspiration combined bivalirudin during emergency PCI on my- ocardial tissue perfusion and clinical prognosis in patients with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods:A total of 102 patients with acute STEMI,who were confirmed with thrombus burden by CAG in our hos- pital from Jan 2012 to Jun 2014,were selected.According to random number table,they were randomly divided into thrombus aspiration + bivalirudin group (n=52,thrombus aspiration group)and heparin group (n=50,routine PCI group).TIMI blood flow grade 3 rate,TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG)after PCI,ST segment re- gression rate 2h after PCI,peak value and peak time of cTnI after PCI,LVEF,LVEDd,incidence rates of bleeding and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)on one week and one month after PCI were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with routine PCI group,there were significant rise in postoperative TMPG grade 3 rate (56.00% vs.88.46%),TIMI grade 3 rate (58.00% vs.88.46%)and ST segment regression rate (52.00% vs. 76.92%)in thrombus aspiration group,P<0.05 or <0.01. Compared with routine PCI group one month after PCI,there was significant rise in LVEF [(53.76±5.24)% vs.(57.95±5.51)%],and significant reductions in LVEDd [(53.70±3.39)mm vs.(50.63±1.24)mm],peak value [(16.00±4.28)μg/L vs.(13.81±4.00)μg/L]and peak time [(14.00±2.80)h vs.(13.00±2.23)h]of cTnI in thrombus aspiration group,P<0.05 or <0.01. Incidence rate of mild bleeding in thrombus aspiration group was significantly lower than that of routine PCI group (1.9% vs.16.0%),P<0.05,but there was no significant difference in incidence rate of MACE between two groups,P>0.05. Conclusion:Thrombus aspiration combined bivalirudin during emergency PCI is safe and fea- sible for acute STEMI patients,it can effectively reduce incidence rate of bleeding,remove coronary thrombus,im- prove myocardial tissue perfusion and doesn't increase incidence rate of MACE.

Aim To screen peptides binding specifically to anti-human PTA1mAbs from a random twelve-peptide phage-disp-layed library. Methods Series of PTA1mAbs(LeoA1、 1B11、 C9、 2D1、 2E9、 2G8、 2H2 and E8)were purified using protein-A affinity column. PTA1mAbs which could bind PTA1-Fc fusion protein binding to its ligand were confirmed by flow cytometry, and then used as target to screen phage library. After three rounds of affinity screening, the peptide sequences of positive phage clones were determined and analyzed. Results LeoA1 could block PTA1-Fc fusion protein binding to its ligand. 13 phages which could bind specifically to LeoA1 were isolated from phage library and further confirmed by ELISA. Conserved motifs were found among the sequences of the peptides. Conclusion It was shown that the conserved motifs were candidafe regions binding to PTA1 ligand,which is important to identify functional epitopes for seeking ligand of PTA1 and further investigation of biological function of PTA1.

Radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) has been one of the most effective treatments for prostate cancer.This study is designed to identify the related predictive risk factors for complications in patients following RRP.Between 2000 and 2012 in Department of Urology,Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center,421 cases undergoing RRP for localized prostate cancer by one surgeon were included in this retrospective analysis.We reviewed various risk factors that were correlated with perioperative complications,including patient characteristics [age,body mass index (BMI),co-morbidities],clinical findings (preoperative PSA level,Gleason score,clinical stage,pathological grade),and surgeon's own clinical practice.Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) was used to explain comorbidities.The total rate of perioperative complications was 23.2% (98/421).There were 45/421 (10.7%),28/421 (6.6%),24/421 (5.7%) and 1/421 (0.2%) in grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ respectively,and 323/421 (76.8%) cases had none of these complications.Statistical analysis of multiple potential risk factors revealed that BMI >30 (P=0.014),Charlson score ≥1 (P<0.001) and surgical experience (P=0.0252) were predictors of perioperative complications.Age,PSA level,Gleason score,TNM stage,operation time,blood loss,and blood transfusion were not correlated with perioperative complications (P>0.05).It was concluded that patients' own factors and surgeons' technical factors are related with an increased risk of development of perioperative complications following radical prostatectomy.Knowing these predictors can both favor risk stratification of patients undergoing RRP and help surgeons make treatment decisions.

The capsid protein (VP60) gene of RHDV was subcloned into the Pichia expressin vector pPICZ B to express the VP60 protein intracellularly. The recombinant plasmid was initially transformed into a E. coli strain TOP10 F'. After verification of the construct by sequencing, the recombinant plasmid was linearized by Sac I in the 5' AOX1 region and then transformed into Pichia pastoris strain GS115 using the Pichia EasyComp Kit. After selecting and verifing for the insertion of VP60 gene in the genome, two clones of Pichia transformants were select for expression test. The recombinant clones were first inoculate with BMGY in baffled flask at 28-30 degrees C in a shaking incubator (250-300 r/min) until culture reaches an OD600 = 2-6, then resuspend the cell pellet to an OD6oo of 1.0 in BMMY medium to induce expression for 5 days by methanol at a concentration of 0.5% in a 1 liter baffled flask covered with 2 layers of sterile gauze. Collect the cell pellets and break it by acid-washed 0.5 mm glass beads. The expression of recombinant Pichia strains was detected by SDS-PAGE and Western analysis with a polyclonal serum which showed a specific protein band of 60kD. Theses results indicates that the recombinant VP60 produced in Pichia was antigenically similar to the viral polypeptide. Electron microscopic observation of the recombinant Pichia-derived protein revealed the presence of virus-like particles similar in size and appearance to native virus capsids. In the haemagglutination test, the recombinant VLPs, like the native RHDV, also agglutinated human blood type O erythrocytes and could be inhibited by the anti-RHDV polyclonal serum.
