Objective To study the application of autologous natural killer(NK)cells in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma and the changes of immune function and tumor markers in patients.Methods 61 patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma admitted to Gansu Wuwei Tumour Hospital from March 2023 to April 2024 were divided into targeting group(31 cases,given supportive treatment combined with sunitinib malate capsules)and cell group(30 cases,autologous NK cells combined with targeting group)according to the patient's willingness to treat combined with propensity score matching.6 weeks was a treatment cycle,and all patients were treated for 4 cycles.The clinical efficacy of the two groups after 4 cycles of treatment and the occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment were statistically analyzed.The levels of serum cytokines,tumor markers,lymphocyte function and immune function were compared between the two groups before and after 4 cycles of treatment.Results After 4 cycles of treatment,the objective remission rate and disease control rate in the cell group were higher than those in the targeting group(P<0.05).After 4 cycles of treatment,the levels of serum hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF),carcinoembryonic antigen,carbohydrate antigen 125,carbohydrate antigen 199 and alpha-fetoprotein in the two groups were lower than those before treatment,and those in the cell group were lower than those in the targeting group(P<0.012 5).After 4 cycles of treatment,the levels of serum interleukin-2,interleukin-6,tumor necrosis factor-β,interferon-γ,peripheral blood CD3+,CD4+,NK cells and CD4+/CD8+in the two groups were higher than those before treatment.The levels of serum interleukin-2,tumor necrosis factor-β,interferon-γ,peripheral blood CD3+and NK cells in the cell group were higher than those in the targeting group(P<0.012 5).The level of CD8+in peripheral blood was lower than that before treatment(P<0.012 5),but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.012 5).During the treatment,there was no significant difference in the incidence of diarrhea,nausea and vomiting,alopecia,liver function damage,decreased platelet level and decreased neutrophil level between the cell group and the targeting group(P>0.05).Conclusion The treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma with autologous NK cells could improve the level of serum cytokines,reduce the level of tumor markers,regulate the function of lymphocytes and immune function,and had a good therapeutic effect.At the same time,it would not increase the incidence of adverse reactions,and the safety was good.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of salvianolic acid B (SalB) on blood-brain barrier (BBB) in rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, and to illustrate its possible mechanisms. Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats. The break-down of BBB was indicated by extravasations of immunoglobulin (IgG) monitored with immunohistochemistry. The expression of MMP-9 and NOS2 in the brain was determined by immunohistochemistry, and the expression of p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 was detected by Western blotting. It was shown that on day 2 after ischemia-reperfusion the IgG accumulated around the vascular boundary zone, suggesting the break-down of BBB, and the expression of MMP-9 and NOS2 up-regulated at the same time. The result of Western blotting suggested that the expression of p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 increased. On day 7 after ischemia-reperfusion the. expression of MMP-9 and NOS2 was about the same level as day 2, the expression of p-p38 was higher than that on day 2 and the expression of p-ERK1/2 was slightly lower than that on day 2. SalB (1 and 10 mg x kg(-1)) significantly alleviated the extravasations of immunoglobulin induced by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (P < 0.05). On day 2 and day 7 SalB attenuated the expression of MMP-9 and NOS2 (P < 0.05). SalB (10 mg x kg(-1)) reduced the expression of p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 apparently on day 2 and 7 after ischemia-reperfusion (P < 0.05). SalB (1 mg x kg(-1)) inhibited the expression of p-p38 on day 7 after ischemia-reperfusion (P < 0.05). The results indicate that SalB protects blood-brain barrier in rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion by inhibiting the MAPK pathway.

Methods My ocardial ischemic/reperfusion model was used to study the protective effect of d ifferent dosage resvaratrol on myocardial ischemic/reperfusion injury in rats. Results Res shrinked the size of myocardial infarction indu ced by the ischemic reperfused method, inhibited the release of creatine kinase( CK) and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) from the injured myocardium and reduced elega ted ST-T of electrocardiogram(ECG) caused by myocardial ischemic-reperfused in jury in dose-dependent way. Res also improved the morphological changes of inju red myocardium. Conclusion Res has protective action on myo cardial ischemic reperfused injury in rats.

Microglia cells are immune cells in the central nervous system.When the microenvironment of brain has changed,microglia will respond rapidly.ATP,UTP,or other nucleotide signals released by neurons from damaged site and their metabolites such as ADP,adenosine,UDP and so on will bind with the purinergic receptors on microglia to regulate the morphology and function of microglia,then the microglial cells activated by nucleotide signals are to regulate neural cells by phagocytosis or releasing cytokines.In this article,the function and corresponding mechanisms of nucleotide signals on chemotaxis,phagocytosis,and process retraction are reviewed.
