【Objective】 To retrospectively analyze the irregular antibodies in 6 blood group systems other than the Rh blood group system in 53 pregnant women and analyze its correlation with the occurrence of hemolytic disease of the newborn(HDN). 【Methods】 19 473 pregnant women were screened for irregular antibodies by microgel detection technology combined with anti-human globulin (IgG+ C3d), and the positive samples screened out were further confirmed to understand the types and titers of irregular antibodies. Irregular antibody type determination experiment: IgG type irregular antibody titer was determined after mercaptoethanol (2-Me) inactivated the serum of the irregular antibody positive specimen, and then IgG and IgM type were determined by comparing the titer levels of irregular antibody. Three hemolysis tests and total bilirubin tests were performed on umbilical cord blood during delivery to analyze the level of jaundice and the occurrence of HDN. 【Results】 53 cases of irregular antibodies other than the Rh blood group system were detected in 19 473 pregnant women, with a positive rate of 0.27%, mainly MNS and Lewis blood group system.The incidence of HDN was 39.6% (21/53). There were 27 cases of IgM, 7 IgG, and 19 IgM + IgG. Comparison of total bilirubin detection between the low titer group (≤8) and the high titer group (>8) : the latter was significantly higher than the former (P<0.05); IgG antibody subtypes: IgG1 of the latter significantly increased (P<0.05), and so was IgG3 in former (P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between IgG1, IgG3 and total bilirubin. The area under the curve of IgG1+ IgG3 for HDN diagnosis, the sensitivity and specificity were 0.953, 0.900, and 0.967, respectively. 【Conclusion】 Other than Rh blood group system, irregular antibodies are mainly distributed in MNS and Lewis blood group system. The incidence of HDN is higher in Kell, Duffy and Kidd blood group systems after producing irregular antibodies. Non-antibody types are mostly IgM type or IgM + IgG mixed, and the incidence of HDN is not high; Patients with poor maternal history, either high or low titer, can be classified into IgG1 and IgG3 in early stages, and those with Abnormal results should be included into the perinatal management of high-risk women with regular checking.

The intestinal flora in the human intestinal tract plays an important role in regulating the intestinal function and maintaining the homeostasis of intestinal state. An increasing number of basic experimental studies have found that intestinal flora can communicate with brain through gut-brain axis (GBA). GBA refers to the neurohumoral network of two-way communication between the intestinal tract and the brain, including immunity, vagus nerve, endocrine, and neurotransmitter. In addition, a large number of studies have suggested that the disorder or absence of intestinal flora may lead to many central nervous system diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, autism spectrum disorder, and hepatic encephalopathy. This article reviews the research progress of the interaction between intestinal flora and brain function to provide theoretical support for further researches on intestinal flora and brain, as well as the treatment strategies of related central nervous system diseases.

Objective To explore the effect of SFI in radiation-induced mice brain injury after 20 Gy cranial radiation.Methods The mice were divided into three groups:(1) control group,(2) RT-only group:the whole brain was irradiated with a dose of 20 Gy,(3) RT and SFI group:SFI at 20 ml/kg/d from 4 weeks after 20 Gy cranial radiation theraty(CRT).Results Morris water maze test showed that the latency of the irradiated group was longer than control group and SFI improved the cognitive function of mice (t =6.34,6.70,P <0.05).The expression of TNF-α reached to the highest level at 3 h after irradiation,and then it decreased but got the second higher level again at 4 weeks after irradiation.The expression of IL-1 β reached to the highest level at 72 h after irradiation and decreased until 4 weeks after irradiation.SFI decreased both expressions of TNF-α (t =11.34,9.70,6.07,P < 0.05) and IL-1 β (t =12.27,5.70,7.52,P < 0.05).Immune florescence staining showed that SFI reduced the number of activated microglia (t =12.35,8.64,7.82,P < 0.05)and inhibited the translocation of p65 of microglia after irradiation.Conclusions Findings suggest that SFI may decrease microglial activation and suppress the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β by inhibiting the translocation of NF-κB p65 and then attenuate irradiation-induced brain injury.

Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF165)-mediated autocrine stimulation of tumor cells enhances the progression to a malignant phenotype.VEGF165b competes with VEGF165 and binds to vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR),resulting in inhibition of downstream signal transduction pathways.This study was designed to investigate the role of VEGF165b in the migration and invasion of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells.The full-length of VEGF165b was constructed and cloned into an expression plasmid (pVEGF165b),and then transfected into A549 cells.Dimethylthiazolyl-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to detect the effect of VEGF165b on proliferation of transfected cells.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed to examine the effect of VEGF165b on the expression of VEGF165 in transfected cells.Wound-healing assays were used to investigate the effect of VEGF165b on migration of transfected cells.Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) activity assay and in vitro invasion assay were used to determine the role of VEGF165b in invasion of transfected cells.There was no significant change in proliferation of A549 cells after transfection of pVEGF165b,but the expression of VEGF165,migration and invasion in A549 cells were inhibited.Furthermore,exogenous VEGF165b inhibited the activity of MMP9 in the supematant of A549 cells and the subsequent invasion capacity of those cells.We therefore conclude that exogenous VEGF165b can inhibit the expression of VEGF165,as well as the migration and invasion ofA549 cells,but has no effect on the proliferation ofA549 cells.

Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF(165))-mediated autocrine stimulation of tumor cells enhances the progression to a malignant phenotype. VEGF(165)b competes with VEGF(165) and binds to vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), resulting in inhibition of downstream signal transduction pathways. This study was designed to investigate the role of VEGF(165)b in the migration and invasion of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells. The full-length of VEGF(165)b was constructed and cloned into an expression plasmid (pVEGF(165)b), and then transfected into A549 cells. Dimethylthiazolyl- 1 -2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to detect the effect of VEGF(165)b on proliferation of transfected cells. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed to examine the effect of VEGF(165)b on the expression of VEGF(165) in transfected cells. Wound-healing assays were used to investigate the effect of VEGF(165)b on migration of transfected cells. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) activity assay and in vitro invasion assay were used to determine the role of VEGF(165)b in invasion of transfected cells. There was no significant change in proliferation of A549 cells after transfection of pVEGF(165)b, but the expression of VEGF(165), migration and invasion in A549 cells were inhibited. Furthermore, exogenous VEGF(165)b inhibited the activity of MMP9 in the supernatant of A549 cells and the subsequent invasion capacity of those cells. We therefore conclude that exogenous VEGF(165)b can inhibit the expression of VEGF(165), as well as the migration and invasion of A549 cells, but has no effect on the proliferation of A549 cells.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of Corilagin on the production of proinflammatory cytokines in microglia induced by radiation. Methods The cytotoxicity of Corilagin was measured by MTT assay. Microglia BV-2 cells were irradiated 0 or 32 Gy after pretreated with Corilagin for 12 hours. Realtime-PCR was used to detect the mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β,TNF-α on several time-points. The content of nitric oxide (NO) was determined with nitrate reductase method. The translocation of NF-κB was measured by Western blot and immunocytochemical stain.Confocal microscopy was used to observe the expression of Iba-1 and Nemo. Results No cytotoxicity was detected on BV-2 cells with 1-10 μg/ml Corilagin. Iba-1 expression in microglia cells was activated by irradiation, the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, TNF-α and NO were also elevated. Whereas, the production of IL-1 β, TNF-α in activated microglia cells was significantly inhibited with 5 μg/mL corilagin ( tIL-1β = 6. 341, tTNF-α = 3.41 1, tNO = 3. 134, P < 0. 05 ). Corilagin significantly inhibited the expression of Nemo and the translocation of NF-κB p65. Conclusion Corilagin could inhibit the activation of irradiated microglia cells and down-regulate the expression of inflammatory cytokines, via inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.
