Objective: Surfactant protein A (SP-A) is protein that appears to play an important role in mammalian first-line host defense. The objective of this study was to immunolocalize SP-A in human sinonasal tissue. Method:Eleven cases of allergic rhinitis, fifteen cases of polyp and seven cases of normal middle turbinate were studied with immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence method to detect the expression of SP-A. Result:The expression of SP-A in allergic rhinitis and polyp were dramatically higher than that in controls(P<0.05), and there was no remarkable difference in the expression of SP-A between allergic rhinitis and polyp(P>0.05). The result demonstrated that SP-A was positivly correlated with eosinophils within the basement membrane of epitheli-um(R=0.81,0.55). In the result of immunofluorescence, there was significantly higher expression SP-A in nasal mucosa of allergic rhinitis and nasal polyp than that in control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:SP-A is likely to play key roles in the inflammatory reaction process of allergic rhinitis and polyp. Its secretion in the upper airway indicates that future studies may allow manipulation of this protein and development of novel treatments for sinonasal pathology.

OBJECTIVE:To establish characteristic chromatogram of Cornus officinalis and its different wine-processedproducts,investigate the differences of chromaticity values,and analyze them with chemical pattern recognition technology.METHODS:UPLC method was adopted. Using loganin as reference,UPLC characteristic chromatograms were drawn for 10batches of C. officinalis and 20 batches of different wine-processed products (stewing with wine,steaming with wine). TCMFingerprint Similarity Evaluation System(2012A edition)was used for similarity evaluation,and common peaks were confirmed.The chromaticity values [lightness(L),red and green tone value(a),yellow and blue tone value(b),color difference value(ΔE)]were determined by spectrophotometer. SPSS 20.0 and SIMCA 14.0 software were used for cluster analysis,principal componentanalysis and partial least squares-discriminant analysis;taking the area of characteristic peak and chromaticity value as indexes,andthe variable importance projection greater than 1 as the standard,the difference markers affecting its quality were screened.RESULTS:There were 6 common peaks in the chromatograms for decoction piece of C. officinalis,7 common peaks forwine-processed C. officinalis(stewing with wine)and wine-processed C. officinalis(steaming with wine). Four components wereidentified as gallic acid,5-hydroxymethylfurfural,morroniside,loganin. 5-hydroxymethylfurfural was produced after processing.The similarity between C. officinalis and different wine-processed products (stewing and steaming with wine) was low(0.869-0.937,0.845-0.944),but the similarity between different wine-processed products was higher than 0.99. ΔL,Δa,Δb and ΔEof C. officinalis decoction pieces and wine-processed C. officinalis decoction pieces(stewing in wine)were -9.42--3.58,-24.92- -15.00,-11.33- -7.00 and 17.01-28.12,respectively. ΔL,Δa,Δb and ΔE of C. officinalis decoction pieces and wine-processed C. officinalis(steaming in wine)decoction pieces were -8.58--2.42,-25.08--13.83,-10.92--6.08,15.58-28.67. ΔL,Δa,Δb and ΔE of wine-processed C. officinalis decoction pieces(stewing and steaming with wine)were -2.17-3.00,-0.75-2.50, 0.25-1.42 and 1.25-3.83,respectively. Results of cluster analysis showed that 30 batches of sample were clustered into two categories,S1-S10 were clustered into one category,and S11-S30 were clustered into other category. Principal component analysis showed that cumulative contribution rate of former two main components was 83.147%. Results of partial least squares-discriminant analysis showed that morroniside,No.5 peak and chromaticity values(L,a,b)were the difference markers affecting its quality. CONCLUSIONS:Established UPLC characteristic chromatogram is stable and feasible,and can be used to rapidly identify C. officinalis and its different wine-processed products. Established chemical mode can be used to identify different wine-processed products.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the efficacy of individualized subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) in allergic rhinitis(AR) maintain phase.
METHOD:
Compare nasal symptom scores (VAS) and special disease scale--nasal conjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ) score after 3 years treatment to evaluate the therapeutic effect of each group and the level of improving patients quality of life. Take patients' blood to detect the serum level of IL-10 by enzyme linked immunosorbent test (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay).
RESULT:
After 3 years treatment, there was no difference of VAS between the conventional SCIT group and the individualized SCIT group. ELISA results showed that the level of IL-10 was significantly higher in the drug symptomatic treatment group than that in the healthy group, the levels of IL-10 were significantly lower in the conventional SCIT group and the individualized SCIT group than that in the healthy group, but there was no difference between the conventional SCIT and the individualized SCIT group.
CONCLUSION
After 3 years treatment, there was no difference between conventional and individualized SCIT groups. But the efficacy of the conventional and individualized SCIT groups were significantly better than that in the drug symptomatic treatment group.
