Objective To investigate the method of directed differentiation dendritic cells from embryonic stem cells(ESC) and to amplify high purity DCS in vitro for immunity therapy.Methods E14 ESC line were generated ESC-derived dendritic cells(ES-DC) in complete medium further supplemented with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor(GM-CSF) and interleukin-3(IL-3).ES-DCs was used flow cytometry to determine CD11c,CD80,CD86,MHC-Ⅱ cell surface phenotype. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were added to induce the ES-DCs matured. The matured ES-DCs was harvested 24 hours later to be identified with morphology, transmission electron microscopy, analyzed by flow cytometry and compared with the immatured ES-DCs phenotype. The antigen presenting was evaluated by mixed lymphocyte responses.Results The ES-DC had obviously dendritic processes under scanning electron microscope . The immature DCs express low level of CD11c(4.33±0.23)%,CD80 (7.62±0.19) %, CD86 (4.77±1.22) % and MHC-Ⅱ (9.68±0.15) %, but the mature DCs express higher lerve of CD11c(47.36±2.68)%,CD80 (74.4±1.47) %, CD86 (29.77±2.00) % and MHC-Ⅱ (87.56±2.75) %. MLR showed that ES-DCs could effectively stimulate lymphocyte to proliferate.Conclusion These results provide evidence that DCs can be generated from E14 ESC with GM-CSF and IL-3, express high level of CD11c,CD80, CD86, MHC-Ⅱ and can effectively stimulate lymphocyte to proliferate. ES cells may become new origin for DCs which provided the immunotherapy.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect and feasibility of acupuncture in uterine involution after cesarean section.
METHODSSeventy cases of cesarean section in primipara were randomized into an observation group (33 cases) and a control group (37 cases). In the control group, the conventional treatment was adopted after cesarean section. In the observation group, on the basic treatment as the control group, acupuncture was applied at Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Hegu (LI 4), Qihai (CV 6) and Guanyuan (CV 4). In 2 h after operation, acupuncture started, once a day, continuously for five times. The daily height of uterine fundus, daily uterine fundus decreasing degree, postpartum blood loss, lochia duration and ultrasonic B test in 42 days of postpartum were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSThe therapeutic methods of the two groups all promoted uterine contraction. The postpartum height of uterine fundus in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (all P<0.05) and the uterine fundus decreasing degree was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The blood loss in 2 h, 6 to 12 h and 24 to 48 h of postpartum was less than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The lochia duration in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture promotes uterine contraction, reduces postpartum blood loss and lochia duration and benefits uterine involution after cesarean section.

AIM:To establish the murine model of oxygen induced retinopathy ( OIR) and to evaluate the inhibition of retinal neovascularization by erythropoietin ( EPO) blockade.
METHODS: Neonates of C57BL/6 mouse ( P7 ) were exposed to 75%±2% oxygen for 5d and return to normal air environment when 12d ( P12 ) to establish oxygen-induced retinal neovascularization model. The neonates were divided into groups, injected with 0. 5μL solution containing 25ng ( group A), 50ng ( group B), 250ng ( group C) of soluble erythropoietin receptor ( EPO-R) or PBS (group D) at P12, P14 and P16 in the right eye. On P17, the litters were sacrificed and their right eyes were enucleated and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, made pathological section. The number of breakthrough internal limiting membrane neovascular nuclei was counted with pathological retinal morphology, understanding theproliferative degree of retinal neovascularization.
RESULTS: The pathological sections showed the neovascular cell nuclei which penetrating the inner limiting membrane in intravitreal EPO receptor injection group was reduced statistically than that in PBS injection group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). And, neovascular nuclei count differences in the
various concentrations of EPO receptor group was statistically significant (P<0. 01). With the EPO receptor concentration increase, neovascular endothelial cells broken through the internal limiting membrane was reduced.
CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection of soluble EPO receptor can block EPO and improve neovascularization. The new method is expected to become new treatment of ocular neovascular diseases.

Human herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) causes facial,ocular,and encephalitic disease and is associated with latent infection and cancer.Here,we developed a means of studying the pathogenesis of HSV-1 infection at the protein level by using the SELDI Protein Chip to detect changes of protein expression in Vero cells cultured in vitro.After infection with HSV-1 and culture for 12,24 or 48 h,cells were harvested and lysed.IMAC3 arrays were applied to SELDI-TOF-MS to detect proteomic differences before and after infection.The chip detected a series of differentially expressed protein peaks.Interestingly,both peaks at 16 912 Da and 17 581 Da corresponded precisely with the molecular mass of ISG 15,which may participate in antiviral activity during the process of infection.Thus,the results we obtained can serve as a basis to study the pathogenesis of HSV-1 and the interaction between the virus and its host.In addition,they can help in the discovery of new therapeutic targets for treatment of HSV-1 infection.
