Objective To study the changes of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) in pulmonary fibrosis induced by paraquat (PQ) with immunohistochemistry method. MethodsA total of 58 C57BL/6J male mice were randomly (random number) divided into the experimental group and control group. Pulmonary fibrosis was induced by intra-peritoneal injection of PQ in dose of 10 mg/kg into the mice of experimental group (n = 48), while physiological saline was used instead in mice of control group (n = 10). The mice of experimental group were sacrificed 2, 5, 7 and 14 days after PQ poisoning and the mice of control group were sacrificed on the 7th day after saline administration. Lungs of mice were taken and histological changes in lungs were evaluated by haematoxylin-eosin stain, and TGF-β1 was determined with immunohistochemistry method. The integrated optical density (iOD) value of TGF-β1 was measured and analyzed. ResultsThe TGF-β1 was markedly increased in macrophages during the genesis of pulmonary fibrosis induced by PQ. As the course of fibrosis progressed, the positive staining of TGF-B1 was mainly seen in macrophages and neutrophil's cytoplasm. On the 14th day after PQ poisoning, TGF-β1-positive cells were also detected in the fibroblast and myo-fibroblast inside the fibroblastic foci. Compared with the control group, the iOD value of TGF-β1 increased in experimental group (P < 0. 01 ) and it gradually upgraded during the course of fibrosis. Conclusions The TGF-β1 significantly increased during the course of pulmonary fibrosis induced by PQ and played an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Recently,the progress in employing transplanting stem cells to cure injured retina is very fast and has been continuously yielding exciting results.Various sources are used in the studies,including retina-derived cells such as M?ller cells and ciliary body cells,and non-retina-derived cells such as embryonic stem cells and brain-derived stem cells.This review briefly discusses the recent progress of these studies.

Objective To explore the relation between the level of oxygen pressure and lactate in arterial blood and prognosis of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods 36 patients with sudden cardiac arrest received CPR were selected.Patients were divided into 3 groups.The 21 patients who 30 minutes of CPR didn't regain heart beats were group A,those 10 who kept blood circulation for over 2 hours but finally died were group B,and the remaining 5 who survived were group C.Control group was made up of 20 people with no disease.In CPR immediately (0h),1h,3h,6h,12h were measured in blood specimens from arterial partial pressure of oxygen and lactate levels were compared among groups of patients dynamic changes of the index.Results The 3 groups A,B,C significantly reduced blood oxygen pressure,blood lactate increased significantly the CPR in the early,and compared with the control group there was significant difference( P < 0.01 ).The group B CPR 3h,6h,and continue until no significant changes in 12h;The group C CPR 3h,6h began to increase blood oxygen pressure and blood lactate levels begin to decline,blood oxygen pressure increased significantly,lower blood lactate to a lower level after 12h.Taken with marked changes in B group,the difference was significant ( P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Arterial partial pressure of oxygen and blood lactate levels could be used as indicators of prognosis of patients with CPR.Sustained increase in arterial oxygen partial pressure showed a good prognosis,lactate levels continued to rise that a poor prognosis.

Objective To find out the consumption situation of iodized salt in Baotou, identify problems and take appropriate intervention measures, and to provide scientific basis for further consolidating the results of control measures, strengthening and improving the sustainable elimination of iodine deficiency disorders. Methods Three batches of each quarter, 54 salt samples were sampled in Donghe wholesale division and Qingkun wholesale division in Baotou city salt company during 2008 - 2010; each place of Damaoqi, Baiyun district, and Qingshan district were divided into five sampling areas according to the direction of east, west, south, north, and central position, one school was selected in each district, 30 students aged 8 to 10 from each school were selected, and home salt samples were taken, and salt iodine was tested by direct titration(GB/T 13025.7-1999). Results Qualified rate of wholesale iodized salt was 100%(378/378) during 2008 - 2010, and mean salt iodine was 30.4 mg/kg;qualified rate of household iodized salt was 99.8%(2417/2421 ), and mean salt iodine was 30.4 mg/kg; iodized salt coverage rate was 99.6% (2421/2430) and consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 99.4% (2417/2430).Conclusions Qualified rate of iodized salt, coverage rate of qualified iodized salt and consumption rate of qualified iodized salt are 90% or more, which has reached the standard of sustainable elimination of iodine deficiency disorders.

Objective To induce mice bone marrow(BM) mono-nuclear cells into dendritic cells(DC) in vitro,and then produce function vaccine of anti-myeloma by bone marrow derived dendritic cells(BM-DC).Methods Mono-nuclear cells separated from mice bone marrow were cultured in tissue culture plastics which supplemented granulocyte-macrophage clonystimulating factor(GM-CSF),IL-4.During the 8 days,there were numerous of mature DCs outgrown,and then fused with SP 2/0 myeloma cells in logarithmic growth phase cultured with 8-azaguaine by polyethylene(PEG).The resulting purified DC/myeloma hybrids were generated by selecting with hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine(HAT).The specific anti-tumor activity was examined in vitro.Results Mono-nuclear cells derived from BM cultured by supplement propriate cytokines milieu in tissue culture plastics,and then exposed to lipopolysaccharide(LPS).There were plenty of mature DCs appear as early as day 8,and exhibit dramatic veils of cytoplasm and extensive dendrites in their surfaces,high express CD11c(83.19%),major histocompatibility complex(MHC)-Ⅱ(95.25%),CD86(89.24%),their capacity to stimulate primary T cell responses in mixed leukocyte reaction(MLR) would be shown strongly.Hybrids could grow well through PEG fusion and HAT selection.These hybrids could stimulate naive T cells into cytotoxic T-lymphocyte(CTLs) directed against SP 2/0 myeloma,and exhibit strong specific killed ability.Conclusions BM-DCs is fused with tumor cells ensure the tumor associated antigens could be processed and presented effectively,and stimulate specific anti-tumor immunity so that prevent or cure this kind of tumor.So it's feasible in practice to produce anti-tumor vaccine by BM-DCs.

AIM: To investigate antioxidative and antinitrosative effects of volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu on dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis mice. METHODS: Balb/c mice were fed with 4% DSS solution for 7 d to induce ulcerative colitis.Using biochemical method,the activity of antioxidative enzyme SOD,MDA and NO were determined in normal,model,SASP and three mouse's groups with low,moderate and high volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu respectively.At the same time,the activity of iNOS was also measured by immunohistopathology. RESULTS: The concentration of MDA and NO were reduced and SOD increased significantly in high-and moderate-volatile oil groups compared with those in the model group.The activity of iNOS was reduced significantly in high-and moderate-volatile oil groups compared with those in the model group.The results demonstrated that the expression of iNOS was significantly inhibited in DSSinduced ulcerative colitis mice after being treated with high or moderate-dosage volatile oil. CONCLUSION: Volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu has antioxidative and antinitrosative effects which may be one of the mechanism for treating UC.
