Objective To explore the possible immune pathophysiology of CD4+T regulatory(CD4+Treg)in acquired aplastic anemia(AA).Methods The levels of CD4+CD25+Treg、CD4+CTLA-4+Treg、CD4+PD-1+Treg、CD3+CD8-IL-10+Treg、CD3+CD8-TGF-?1+Treg、CD3+CD8-IL-4+ Treg in the bone marrow of 23 cases of AA at active phase,10 cases of AA at recovery phase and 15 normal controls were measured,and the relationship between CD4+Treg and priming immune factor-CD28 or effective immune factor-IFN-? was also evaluated respectively.Results Contrast to normal controls,while CD4+CTLA-4+Treg of AA at active phase decreased markedly,levels of other CD4+Treg:CD4+CD25+Treg,CD4+PD-1+Treg,CD3+CD8-IL-10+Treg,CD3+CD8-TGF-?1+Treg and CD3+CD8-IL-4+Treg did not change significantly.Contrast to normal controls,the ratio of membrane costimulatory of CD28/CTLA-4 and CD28/PD-1 were all increases significantly in AA at active phase;the ratio of cytokines in cell plasma of IFN-?/IL-4,IFN-?/TGF-?,and IFN-?/IL-10 were also increased significantly.Conclusion In AA,not only at priming stage but also at effective stage,the positive costimulatory increased while the negative regulatory costimulatory decreases or dose not change,which shifted the immune balance to intensification.That the CD4+Treg does not expand to control the intensified immune reaction might be one of immunopathgenesis of AA.

Objective To evaluate the possible association among serum folate,polymorphisms related reduced folate carrier gene (RFC-1) AS0G,methionine synthase reductase gene (MTRR) A66G,and cervical cancer,and to provide clues for the etiology of cervical cancer.Methods Based on a hospital-based case-control study,107 cases diagnosed as cervical cancer pathematologically and 107 controls with hysteromyoma,were selected by frequency,matched with age and habitation.Serum folate concentration was detected by RIA and polymorphism RFC-1 A80G and MTRR A66G was examed by RFLP-PCR.Results Serum folate concentration in patient group [(1.86±0.60) ng/rml] was significantly lower than that in control group [(2.30 ± 1.14) ng/ml],and risk of cervical cancer increased with the decreased serum folate levels (x2trend =12.57,P =0.001).Risks to catch cervical cancer for women with RFC-1 80 GG were 2.42 times (95 % CI 1.01-5.81) as much as for those with RFC-1 80 AA,and 1.65 times (95 % CI 0.77-3.53) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG,risks to catch cervical cancer for women with MTRR 66 GG were 1.35 times (95 % CI 0.40-4.56) as much as for those with MTRR 66 AA and 1.26 times (95 % CI 0.38-4.16) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG.Conclusion Serum folate deficiency to a certain degree can increase the risk of cervical cancer.RFC-1 A80G mutation may be a risk factor for cervical cancer and homozygous (GG) gene may increase the susceptibility of cervical cancer.MTRR A66G gene mutation may have nothing to do with cervical cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture on ischemic stroke by recording the therapeutic effect score and performing transcranial Doppler (TCD) detection in electroacupuncture-treated convalescent stroke patients before and after treatment.Methods Sixty convalescent patients with ischemic stroke were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 30 cases each. The control group received routine medication and the treatment group, electroacupuncture in addition. In the two groups, pre- and post-treatment neurological defect scores were recorded and the clinical therapeutic effects were observed after four weeks of treatment. Pre- and post-treatment middle cerebral artery (MCA) pulsation indices (RI), resistance indices (RI) and ratios of systolic to end-diastolic (S/D) blood flow velocity detected by TCD were compared between the two groups. Results The total efficacy rate was 80.0% in the treatment group and 50.0% in the control group; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the MESSS score in the two groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant post-treatment difference in the MESSS score between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in TCD indices (PI, RI and S/D) on the affected side in the two groups (P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in TCD indices on the affected side between the treatment and control groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Electro- acupuncture can promote rehabilitation in convalescent stroke patients.
