Objective To investigate the mobilization effect of low-does granulocyte-colony stimulation factors(G-CSF) on allogenic peripheral stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) and the best acquisition time for haemopoietic stem cell. Methods G-CSF was administered subcutaneously at 5μg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)to 108healthy donors. The mobilization effects were assayed by mononuclear cell count,flow cytometry and colonyforming units analysis.Results Onfourth day,fifty day and sixth day, the ratio of CD_(34)~+ were (0.71 ±0.08)%, (1.09±0.09) %, (0.57±0.08) %, respectively. The CFU-GM yield were (93.33±44.51)/10~5MNC, (124.61±57.85)/ 10~5MNC, (80.25±49.24)/10~5MNC, respectively. The number of CD_(34)~+ were (3.33±1.36)×10~6/kg, (4.14±1.67) ×10~6/kg, (2.79±1.47)×l0~6/kg, respectively. The ratio and number of CD_(34)~+ cell of PBSC collections of fifth day was higher than that of the fourth day (P <0.05). And the fourth day was higher than that of the sixth day(P < 0.05). Twice day (fourth day and fifth day) collection can obtain enough CD_(34)~+ cell for PBSCT. There were no significant adverse effects. Conclusion Low-does G-CSF takes good effects on the mobilization of PBSC. And it was better to collect stem cell on fourth day and fifth day rather than on fifth day and sixth day after mobilization.

To study the level of blood selenium(Se)and nitrogen monoxide(NO)of oral lichen planus patients.Tested the contents of blood selenium(Se)and nitrogen monoxide(NO)of oral lichen planus patients and healthy cases.The level of blood selenium(Se)of oral lichen planus patients was lower than that of the control group,the situation of nitrogen monoxide(NO)was opposite,which indicated that Se and oxyradical may play an important role in the mechanism of oral lichen planus.

To investigate the effects of lidocaine on phospholipase A_2(PLA_2) and fluidity of lung cell membrane during rabbits endotoxemia. Method: Twenty-four white rabbits were randomly assigned to receiving one of three treatmemnts (n=8 for each group): infusion of saline(control group), infusion of Escbericbia coli endotoxin(endotoxin group), infusion of endotoxin with lidocaine pretreatment (lidocaine group). The PLA_2 activity, PS, PE and PC contents of lung cell membrane fluidity were analysed with high performance liquid chromatography and DPH method respectively. Result: PLA_2 activities in the plasma and cell membrane were reduced significantly, and the PS, PE and PC contents in the cell membrane increased significantly in lidocaine group compared with those in endotoxin group. The membrane fluidities of RBC and lung cells of rabbit with lidocaine pretreatment also incresed significantly in comparison with those in endotoxin group. Conclusion:The pretreatment with lidocaine inhibits PLA_2 activity in plasma and cell membrane of rabbit lung, reduces the contents of phospholipids in cell membrane of rabbit lung, increases membrane fluidity of RBC and lung ceils of rabbit and stabilizes cell membranes function.

Objective To analyze the outcomes and the prognostic factors of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT) for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Method From Feb.2002 to Feb.2014,a total of 95 patients with ALL were treated with alloPBSCT in our hospital.Of these,73 cases obtained the first CR (CR1),11 cases obtained late CR,7 patients were in relapse and 3 patients suffered from primarily refractory disease (PRD) before transplant.The median age was 26 (4-57) years.Conditioning regimens including total body irradiation (TBI)/ etoposide/semustine/cyclophosphamide or busulfan/semustine/cyclophosphamide were used.Matched sibling transplantation was performed on 68 patients,and matched unrelated donor transplantation was performed on 27 patients.Combination of CsA,MTX and low-dose,short-course mycophenolate mofetil was used for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis.The average fellow-up was 57 months.Result Hematopoietic reconstitution was achieved in all 95 patients.Five-year estimate of overall survival (OS) was 54.3％,disease free survival (DFS) was 51.2％,relapse rate (RR) was 30.2％ and transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 24.0％.The 5 year OS and DFS were significantly longer in patients with CR1 than in late CR and relapse/PRD patients before allo-PBSCT (P＜0.001).There was no significant difference in OS between the two different conditioning regimens.Multivariate analyses revealed that Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD and cGVHD were correlated with higher TRM,CR1 before allo-PBSCT and TBI were associated with a lower RR,and non Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD and CR1 before allo-PBSCT were favorable factors which were associated with OS and DFS.In the patients with DFS≥1 year after allo-PBSCT,DFS and OS were shorter in patients with cGVHD (P =0.008).Conclusion Allo-PBSCT in adult ALL patients should be performed in CR1.Severe acute and chronic GVHD are not associated with improved survival.

BACKGROUND:The mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 10 exerts effects on the osteoclasts by in vitro mouse cranium experiment,
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect and mechanism of recombinant mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 10 (CPN10) on the differentiation of osteoclasts in the in vitro culture system that induces osteoclast differentiation.
METHODHuman macrophage colony-stimulating factor-dependent adhesive blood mononuclear cells were divided into four groupreceptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)+CPN10 (1 mg/L), RANKL, CPN10 (1 mg/L), and negative control (complete culture medium). Monocytes were resuspended in a-MEM medium containing macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and were cultured in each group for 7, 14, 21 days. The morphology, quantity and bone resorption area of osteoclasts were examined by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining. The expressions of NFATc1 and c-Fos gene and protein were also detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In negative control group, no TRAP-positive multinucleated osteoclasts generated, while in the other groups, TRAP-positive multinucleated osteoclasts differentiated and formed the lacunae in the smal bone grinding. The number of osteoclasts formation and resorption in CPN10 group were significantly lower than that in RANKL+CPN10 group. The expression of NFATc1 and c-Fos in the negative control group C was significantly lower than that of RANKL+CPN10 group and CPN10 group. However, CPN10 expressed NFATc1 and c-Fos protein, which was significantly lower than RANKL+CPN10 group. CPN10 is involved in the formation of osteoclasts, and the mechanism is related with the upregulation of NFATc1, c-Fos expression.

BACKGROUND:Mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 10 (r-Mt cpn10) is one of the main factors that cause bone tuberculosis dissolution and absorption as wel as inhibits the proliferation of osteoblasts. Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand and osteoprotegerin are the important factors influencing bone metabolism.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of r-Mt cpn10 on human osteoblast proliferation, alkaline phosphatase secretion, expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand mRNA and osteoprotegerin mRNA. METHODS:Human bone marrow stromal cel s were induced to differentiate into osteoblasts, and osteoblasts at passage 3 were cultured with various concentrations of r-Mt cpn10 (0.1, 1, 10 mg/L). Osteoblasts cultured without r-Mt CPN10 were assigned as controls.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:MTT assay results showed that, compared with control group, r-Mt cpn10 at different concentrations inhibited osteoblast proliferation and alkaline phosphatase secretion (P<0.05). RT-PCR analysis showed that, r-Mt cpn10 at different concentrations increased receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand mRNA expression (P<0.01), and inhibited osteoprotegerin mRNA expression in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.01). 10 mg/L r-Mt cpn10 exhibited the strongest effect (P<0.01). The r-Mt cpn10 can inhibit osteoblast proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity, and it may influence bone metabolism by regulating the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand mRNA and osteoprotegerin mRNA.

Conclusion ① IKr blocked by dofetillide did not affect the heterogeneity between the two ventricles , which showed reverse‐frequency dependence . ② In the context of blocking IKr , ATX‐Ⅱ increased the heterogeneity between the left and right ventricles and enhanced the reverse‐frequency dependence .In contrast ,mexiletine ,the blocker of INa‐L ,decreased the heterogeneity between the two ventricles and reverse‐frequency dependence .

Objective To explore the association of urinary level of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) with renal tubulointerstitial lesions in patients with lupus nephritis (LN). And to find a potential clinical biomarker, which could reflect the specific tubulointerstitial lesions of LN. Methods Sixty cases of biopsy proven new-onset LN patients were enrolled into the study. And 10 normal kidney tissues were collected, which came from 10 patients with kidney trauma or renal tumor nephrectomy. Sixty patients with LN were divided into mild disease group, moderate disease group, severe disease group and the extremely severe disease group according to the criteria of 2000 Hill's morphologic index for the evaluation of renal pathology. Urine and renal tissues specimen were collected. The clinical and pathological data were analyzed retrospectively. Urine level of KIM-1 was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (-). Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expression of KIM-1 in the renal tissue. T-test, One-Way analysis of variance(ANOVA) test or rank sum test and Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results ①With the aggravation of tubulointerstitial lesions, the urinary level of KIM-1 was increased gradually, which was shown in the control group [(0.32 ±0.03) ng/ml], mild group [(2.31 ±0.30) ng/ml], moderate group [(6.12 ±0.51) ng/ml], severe group [(12.51 ±1.83) ng/ml] and the extremely severe group [(15.30 ±2.11) ng/ml] (all P<0.05); ② With the aggravation of tubulointerstitial lesions, the expression of KIM-1 in the renal tissue was increased gradually which was shown in the control group [(2.13±0.12)%], mild group [(35.01±0.33)%], moderate group [(51.12± 2.11)%], severe group [(63.50 ±1.80)%] and the extremely severe group [(75.31 ±3.22)%] (all P<0.05);③ Urinary KIM-1 level in LN patients was positively correlated with the expression of KIM-1 in the renal tissue (r=0.870, P<0.01);④Urinary KIM-1 level in LN patients was positively correlated with 24 hUP, systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI), renol (R)-SLEDAI, glomerular activity index (GAI), tubulointerstitial ativity imdex (TLAI), chronicity (AI) (r=0.826, 0.741, 0.824, 0.743, 0.871, 0.741, P<0.05), and was negatively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (r=-0.726, P<0.05), while was not correlated with CI (r=0.532, P>0.05). The expression of KIM-1 in the renal tissue was positively correlated with serum creatinine (SCr), quantity of 24 h UP, SLEDAI, R-SLEDAI, GAI, TLAI and AI (r=0.780, 0.780, 0.812, 0.727, 0.735, 0.910, 0.701, P<0.05), and was negatively correlated with eGFR (r=-0.727, P<0.05), while it was no correlated with CI (r=0.543, P>0.05). Conclusion Urinary KIM-1 enables to assess the tubulointerstitial lesion in LN patients, and it can be a sensitive biomarker to predict the tubulointerstitial damage and to evaluate the degree of tubulointerstitial lesions.
