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 explore the reversing mechanism of multidrug resistance of ciclosporin(CsA) on K562/A02 cell line,attenuating DNA damage repair through H2AX suppression.Methods K563 and K562/A02 respectively co-cultured with adriamycin(ADM) of different concentrations and CsA.MTT assay was employed to determine the inhibitory concentration of 50 percent(IC50),the resistance times and the reversal times.The K562/A02 cells treated with CsA,and reverse transcriptase(RT)-PCR technique was used to examine the mdr1 and H2AX mRNA level.Flow cytometry was used to measure P-glycoprotein(P-gp) and H2AX expression.Neutral comet assay was used to detect the level of DNA double strands break(DSBs) of the K562/A02 treated with ?H2AX antibody.Results 2?10-3g/L CsA could increase the sensitivity of K562/A02 to ADM,and the reversal times was 5.28.Mdr1 mRNA level and H2AX mRNA level were decreased when treated with CsA(P

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 evaluate the standardization of Meta-analyses on nephropathy published in Chinese journals.Methods By searching in WANFANG,VIP,CNKI databases and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database(CBM) as well as related Chinese journals,eligible Meta-analyses were enrolled and analyzed according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) Statement and the MOOSE (Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology) Checklist.Results A total of 217 Meta-analyses were enrolled with 166 on randomized controlled trials (RCT) and 51 on observational studies.Based on the PRSIMA Statement,of the 166 Meta-analyses on RCT,51.8％(86 papers) were found with the complete research hypothesis,13.9％ (23) with the literature screening flow chart,15.7％ (26) with the subgroup analysis,53.0％ (88) with the publication bias analysis and 28.3％ (47) with the sensitivity analysis.According to the MOOSE Checklist,of the 51 Meta-analyses on observational studies,only 9.8％ (5) had done the statistical stability calculation,54.9％ (28) with the outlook of application,45.1％ (23) with the limitation of the study,2.0％ (1) with the quantitative analysis on potential bias and 17.6％ (9) with the suggestion for future studies.Conclusions Unclear hypothesis,limited methodological description,lack of in-depth analysis on heterogeneity and bias are the common defects in Meta-analyses published in Chinese journals on nephrology.

Chelating ligand method has been used to synthesize baicalin-metal (Ni2+, Co2+, Cu2+) complexes (BMC). The composition and structure of BMC were characterized by the element analysis, ultraviolet spectrum (UV), infrared spectrum (IR), mass (MS) and thermal gravitational analysis (TGA). MTT was used to analyze the effects of BMC on SMMC-7721 cell proliferation. PI staining method and Annexin-V/FITC double staining method were used to analyze the effects of BMC on the cell cycle and apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cell. Fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR was used to analyze the expression of BMC on Bcl-2 gene and Bax mRNA, flow cytometry was used to analyze BMC on the expression of Bcl-2 protein and Bax protein. The antineoplastic activity and mechanism of action of BMC was explored comprehensively. The results showed that three new kinds of BMC (molar ratio of 2 : 1) were successfully prepared, the complexes molecular formula are: Na2Ni(C21H16O11)2 x 10H2O, Na2Co(C21H16O11)2 x 8H2O and Na2Cu(C21H16O11)2 x 8H2O. According to the results of cell cycle and apoptosis detection, BMC stopped cells at G0/G1 phase to S phase and G2/M phase. Gene and protein detection showed that under the given concentration and time, BMC can downregulate the expression of Bcl-2 gene in SMMC-7721 cells, and significantly decrease the expression of Bcl-2 protein, at the same time, with the increase of expression of Bax gene, the Bax protein's expression increased significantly. Which indicates that BMC restrain cell proliferation and cell apoptosis by stopping cell cycle, reducing the expression of Bcl-2 and increasing that of Bax; The anti-tumor activities of three kinds of complexes were: baicalin-copper (BC-Cu) > baicalin-cobalt (BC-Co) > baicalin-nickel (BC-Ni) > baicalin (BC), showing the dose-response relationship.

In this paper, the new carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (F-CNTs/GCE) was prepared to establish a new method for studying the molecular interaction mechanism between baicalin metal complexes (BMC) and bovine serum album (BSA), and the principle of this method was discussed deeply. Under the physiological condition, the thermodynamics and kinetics properties of interaction between BMC and BSA were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) to inference their molecular effective mechanism. The results show that the presence of F-CNTs can accelerate the electron transfer, and better response signal was showed in the BMC/BMC-BSA system. The detection of interaction of BMC-BSA used new method show that BMC-BSA generates stable thermodynamically non-covalent compounds, and the obtained average binding sites of BMC-BSA were 1.7; the number of electron transfer in BMC/BMC-BSA reaction process was 2, and non electroactive supramolecular compounds of BMC-BSA were generated by this interacting reaction. The relevant research work provides a new way to study the molecular mechanism for the interaction of drugs with protein, and with a certain reference value for discussion on the non covalent interactions.
