Objective To detect the serum level of interleukin (IL)-1 1, lymphocyte subsets and NK cells in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), and explore the related factors in the pathogenesis of ITP. Methods The serum level of IL-11, lymphocyte subsets and NK cells were detected by double antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry in 50 ITP patients (ITP group) and 30 controls (control group). Results The platelet in ITP group [ (30.21 ± 19.40) ×109/L] was lower than that in control group [ (207.21 ± 31.55 ) × 109/L] obviously (P ＜ 0.05 ); the serum level of IL-11 in ITP group [(255.72 ± 163.43) ng/L] was significantly higher than that in control group [ (40.60 ± 5.57 ) ng/L ] (P ＜ 0.05 ). The correlation analysis indicated that the blood serum levels of IL- 11 had negative relationship with the platelet (r = -0.557 ,P ＜ 0.05). The percentage of CD3+ and CD4+ T lymphocyte percentage, CD4+/CD8+ in ITP group were lower and the percentage of CD8+ T lymphocyte was higher than those in control group obviously (P ＜ 0.05 ). The percentage of CD3- CD(16+56) +NK cell in ITP group was lower than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion IL-11, lymphocyte subgroup and NK cell change correlate with ITP morbidity closely, and the IL-11 level and the platelet possibly have the negative feedback control action.

Sepsis and septic shock are common critical diseases in the ICU, which have a high mortality and seriously affect the patients'' quality of life.The pathogenesis of sepsis is very complicated and involves the changes in the functions of multiple systems and organs.Recently, the investigation into the potential mechanisms underlying the development of sepsis is becoming a hotspot all over the world.The author presents an overview on the advances in the studies of the pathogenesis of sepsis, relating to the imbalance of inflammatory response, immune dysfunction, abnormal blood coagulation, nerve-endocrine-immunity network, mitochondrial function damage, endoplasmic reticulum stress, autophagy, and genetic polymorphism, in order to provide some theoretical evidence for the prevention and treatment of sepsis in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the components of mesenteric lymph of the rats with severe intraperitoneal infection,and inquire into the effect of intestinal lymphatic pathway in severe intraperitoneal infection.Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups according to random number table method,namely model group and sham group with 12 rats in each group.The rat model of severe intraperitoneal infection was reproduced by injecting artificial gastric juice and E.coli intraperitoneally.Mesenteric lymph in both groups was collected 4 hours after the reproduction of the model,and white blood cells were counted and classified.The levels of endotoxin,alkaline phosphatase (AKP),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),creatine kinase (CK),glutamine transferase (GST),protein and cytokines of mesenteric lymph were determined.Results Compared with the sham group,there was an increase in the neutrophil ratio in mesenteric lymph (0.167 ± 0.004 vs.0.610 ± 0.006,t=33.520,P＜0.001),however the percentage of both macrophages (0.009 ± 0.001 vs.0.020 ± 0.004,t=-6.677,P＜0.001) and lymphocytes (0.824 ± 0.005 vs.0.921 ± 0.004,t=-31.471,P＜0.001) was decreased in model group.Compared with sham group,the levels ofendotoxin (kEU/L:0.346 ±0.022 vs.0.186 ±0.001,t=18.103,P＜0.001),AKP [U (king unit):13.97 ± 5.55 vs.3.76 ± 0.18,t=4.503,P=0.006],LDH (U/L:2 827.45 ± 1 940.32 vs.712.68 ± 14.09,t=2.670,P=0.044),CK (kU/L:2.19 ± 1.21 vs.0.70 ± 0.01,t=3.035,P=0.029),GST (kU/L:12.33 ± 6.53 vs.1.36 ± 0.39,t=4.105,P=0.009) were all significantly elevated.The concentration of protein (g/L:4.40 ± 0.48 vs.2.84 ± 0.16,t=6.882,P=0.001),tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α (ng/L):499.39 ±76.36 vs.180.90 ± 70.98,t=7.483,P＜0.001],interleukin-6 [IL-6 (μg/L):13.74 ± 0.78 vs.-0.07 ± 0.07,t=52.972,P＜0.001],intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [ICAM-1 (ng/L):2 754.19 ±221.48 vs.1 362.85 ±393.43,t=6.891,P＜0.001] and monocyte chemo-attractant protein-1 [MCP-1 (μg/L):28.23 ± 1.77 vs.24.87 ± 1.15,t=3.561,P=0.007] and high mobility group protein-1 [HMGB-1 (ng/L):1 392.78 ± 572.42 vs.564.17 ± 21.32,t=3.543,P=0.016] in mesenteric lymph in model group were significantly higher than those in sham group.Conclusion Intestinal lymphatic pathway maybe the early pathway for the production of remote organ injury caused by severe intraperitoneal infection.

Objective To observe the effects of Qingfei Chengqi decoction on lung tissue cell apoptosis and its associated protein,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)of lung tissues in rats with severe intra-peritoneal infection(SII). Methods Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:sham operation group,model group and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)group(each n=10). Simulating clinical pathophysiological process of digestive tract perforation,the rat model of SII was reproduced by injecting E. coli intraperitoneally. The TCM group was treated by gavage with Qingfei Chengqi decoction one day in advance of the study,3 times per day,once 2 mL. The same amount of nutrient broth which contained 10%barium sulfate(BaSO4) to replace the bacteria solution was injected into the sham operation group. Six hours after model establishment,all rats were killed and lung tissues were harvested for pathohistological evaluation and for the determination of apoptosis rate with TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling(TUNEL)method,of Bax,Bcl-2 protein expression with Western Blot method,and of the level of TNF-α,IL-6 with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method,and the pathological changes of lung tissues were observed under the light and electron microscopes. Results Compared with sham operation group,the apoptosis rate〔(12.7±5.4)%vs. 0〕,the expression of Bax protein〔absorbance(A)value:8 416.89±875.16 vs. 6 654.09±1 130.18〕,the level of TNF-α(ng/L:3 132.56±457.96 vs. 1 948.55±269.32), the level of IL-6(ng/L:75.14±1.63 vs. 31.17±0.81)of lung tissues were significantly increased(all P<0.05), meanwhile Bcl-2 protein expression decreased observably(A value:7 490.59±200.34 vs. 12 289.02±535.93,P<0.05)in model group induced by SII. After treatment with TCM,apoptosis rate〔(7.9±0.3)%〕,the expression of Bax protein(A value:7 619.50±999.30),the level of TNF-α(ng/L:3 114.34±454.32)and IL-6(ng/L:52.46±0.96) of lung tissues were decreased and Bcl-2 protein expression(A value:11 155.07±1 018.87)increased(all P<0.05) compared with model group. General observation:the color of lung tissues was uniform in sham operation group;the lung tissues of model group swelled obviously,and parts of lung tissues had patches of ecchymosis and hemorrhage. The light microscope showed:the pulmonary vessels,the alveolar interstitium,alveolar epithelium and lobular interstitium of sham operation group were all normal,while in the model group,the pulmonary interstitium was edematous and hemorrhagic,and in the alveolar cavities there was infiltration of inflammatory cells. Under the electron microscope, the lung tissue type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells of model group were increased,and they had morphological changes in various degrees,such as cell shrinkage and change becoming round,and cell nucleus presenting irregular in shape. After treatment with TCM,the above pathological changes were all alleviated compared with those in the model group. Conclusions Qingfei Chengqi decoction can ameliorate the SII leading to acute lung injury,and reduce the cell apoptosis rate of lung tissues in SII rats. Its mechanism may be related to the intervention of above TCM which can lower the levels of inflammatory media and elevate the protein expression of Bcl-2.

Objective To explore the possible mechanism and protective effect of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) on rats with paraquat-induced acute lung injury. Method The solution of 20% paraquat (PQ) in dose of 18 mg/kg was injected intra-peritoneally into rats to induce poisoning,and phosphate buffered solution (PBS) was given to rats instead of PQ in rats of control group. Eighty specific pathogen free (SPF) Wistar rats were randomly divided into four group: PQ plus PBS group (n = 20), PQ plus MSCs group (n = 20), MSCs plus PBS group (n=20), normal group (n = 20). The forth generation of MSCs were transfected with Ad5-EGFP virus vector, and then the MSCs-EGFP was delivered to rats through the tail vein of rats 4h after PQ. Five rats of each group were sacrificed 1 d, 3 d, 7 d and 28 days after MSCs administration, and lung tissues of rats were taken to make sections for histological observation of the migration of MSCs under fluorescence inverted microscope. The lung tissues of rats sacrificed on the 28 th day after PQ poisoning were taken for detecting pulmonary coefficient and the content of hydroxyproline (HYP) in the lung tissue homogenate, and at the same time, the levels of serum transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) were assayed. Results The pathological changes of lung tissue showed that the pulmonary fibrosis and consolidation in the MSCs treatment group were milder than those in PQ poisoning model group. In the MSCs treatment group, the levels of serum TGF-β1 and lung tissue HYP, and pulmonary coefficient were lower than those of PQ poisoning model group (P＜0.05). Conclusions The use of MSCs for treatment of paraquat intoxication can protect pulmonary structure by decrease in TGF-B1 and inhibiting the fibroblast migration, suppressing the production of collagenous protein.
