OBJECTIVETo explore the improvement of dendritic cells' (DCs) functions in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients by two different drugs plasma, i.e., Shen supplementing and detoxification (SSD) and Pi invigorating and detoxification (PID), thus comparing which method was more effective to activate DCs to improve T lymphocyte functions.
METHODSTotally 30 CHB outpatients were recruited. They were assigned to the immune tolerant group and the immune clearance group, 15 in each group. Totally 60 mL peripheral blood was extracted to isolate and develop mature DCs. Chinese compound containing (Liuwei Ganlu Syrup for SSD) and (Sijun Ganlu Syrup for PID) plasma were added to promote the maturation of DCs on the 7th day. Besides, non-drug plasma was taken as the control. On the ninth day, HBV core 18-27 loaded core peptide and its own T lymphocyte were co-cultivated for 72 h. Then T lymphocytes were collected. The expression levels of CD3, CD28, CD4, and CD8, programmed death-1 (PD-1) were detected using flow cytometry.
RESULTSCompared with non-drug plasma, the expression levels of CD3, CD4, and CD28 could be improved, and the expression levels of CD8 and PD-1 could be reduced by the two methods, showing statistical difference (P < 0.05). Besides, SSD containing plasma showed better effect in improving the molecular CD28 expression rate, and reducing the molecular PD-1 expression rate on the T cell surface, showing statistical difference when compared with that of PID containing plasma (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSIn vitro intervention of DCs by SSD and PID containing plasmas combined co-cultivation of its own T lymphocytes could promote the activation of DCs to improve the function of T cells and the expression of T cell surface molecules. Besides, SSD showed more significant effect on infection immune of HBV patients in the tolerance stage.

Chemokines are small cytokines with chemotactic activity, they are involved in regulating immune responses and inflammatory responses. In the development of tumors, chemokines are multi-functional mediators that not only affect the infiltration of immune cells into the tumor, but also have an important impact on tumor growth, angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis. Besides, they are important targets of tumor therapy. Here we review chemokines involved in the regulation of signaling pathways, analyze the mechanism of chemokines in the development of breast cancer, summarize the chemokines targeted drugs for breast cancer in recent years and make a prospect about the role of chemokines in anti-breast cancer therapy.

Objective To investigate the relationship between hypoxia and insulin resistance in males with metabolic syndrome ( MS ). Methods Parameters at physical, hematological, glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and insulin resistance were measured in 295 middle-aged men who took health examination. The trends of laboratory indexes grouped by hemoglobin quartile and MS components were compared. The correlation between hypoxia and insulin resistance was analyzed. Results With the increase of hemoglobin, the occurrence rates of MS, TG, INS, and HOMA-IR were also significantly increased ( P < 0. 05 ), while HDL-C and HOMA-IS reduced remarkably(P<0. 05). With the increase of MS components, hematological parameters(RBC, Hb, Hct), INS, and HOMA-IR were significantly increased( P<0. 05) while HOMA-IS were significantly decreased( P<0. 05). Blood lactate and HIF-1αwere significantly increased with the increase of hemoglobin as well as MS components(P<0. 05);Hematological parameters were positively correlated with blood lactate and HIF-1α, and Hypoxia related indicators including hematological parameters, Lac, HIF-1α showed a positive correlation with HOMA-IR and a negative correlation with HOMA-IS( P < 0. 05). Conclusion Chronic hypoxia does exist in metabolic syndrome, and the degree of hypoxia is associated with insulin resistance. Hematological parameters are also significantly correlated with insulin resistance which could be as a result of chronic hypoxia.
