Objective:To investigate the effect of tolerogenic dendritic cells(tolDC)on autophagy of synovial cells in collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)rats.Methods:Bone marrow mononuclear cells of rats were extracted and induced into tolDC using IL-4,GM-CSF and NF-κB oligonucleotide decoy,and loaded with BⅡC to become BⅡC-tolDC.SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group,CIA model group and BⅡC-tolDC intervention group,with 3 rats in each group.Normal female SD rats were immunized with bovine type Ⅱ collagen solution to construct CIA model.Rats in BⅡC-tolDC intervention group were infused with BⅡC-tolDC via tail vein on the 21st day after initial immunization for two weeks,arthritis indexes were recorded weekly.On the 35th day,the rats were sacrificed,and synovial histopathology of ankle joint of rats in each group were observed by HE staining;the number of osteo-clasts in cartilage of rats in each group were observed by TRAP staining.The number of autophagic of ankle synovial cells of rats in each group were observed by transmission electron microscopy.Levels of serum TNF-α and IL-1β of rats in each group were detected by ELISA.LC3,Beclin-1 and ATG5 proteins of synovial cells of ankle joints of rats in each group were detected by Immunohistochemical staining.Results:CIA rats were constructed successfully by immunization with bovine type Ⅱ collagen.BⅡC-tolDC intervention re-duced the arthritis index of CIA rats,inhibited synovial inflammation and abnormal proliferation of synovial tissue,improved joint bone and cartilage injury,and reduced the number of osteoclasts in cartilage tissue and the number of autophagosomes in synovial cells.At the same time,reduced levels of serum TNF-α,IL-1β,and protein expressions of LC3,Beclin-1 and ATG5 of synovial cell of CIA rats.Conclusion:BⅡC-tolDC may alleviate arthritis lesions of CIA rats by inhibiting synovial cell autophagy of CIA rats.

Objective:To conduct a systematic study of the immunologic response of rats to transplanted glutaraldehyde ( GA)-treated porcine blood vessels in vivo.Methods: The experiment was divided into two groups:fresh group and glutaraldehyde-treated group.Twenty cases of fresh and glutaraldehyde-treated porcine pulmonary arteries were subcutaneously embedded in rats.We compared the changes using HE staining and immunohistochemistry.Results:HE staining showed that there were stronger expression on day 12 and day 30 in the fresh group than that in the glutaraldehyde group.There were similar results in morphology in CD68,C3,IgG.The results of integral optical density ( IOD) in immunohistochemistry showed that IOD started rising from day 4 and got the peak on day 12 or day 30 and or fell on day 60.Conclusion: Innate immunity played an important role in the research on xenogenic immunological rejection mechanism.The immunogenicity of glutaraldehyde-treated xenogenic blood vessels is lower than that in fresh blood vessels.However there is still immunogenicity in glutaraldehyde-treated xenogenic blood vessels.We will explore better ways to obviously weaken the rejection.

Objective To explore the relationships among pulmonary function,DVH and acute radiation pneumonitis after three-dimensional conformal radiation treatment in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer.MethodsPulmonary function tests were conducted on 68 inoperable patients (male 42,female 26,median age 52,KPS≥80) before and after three months radiotherapy respectively.After 3 months of follow-up,radiation pneumonitis were graded,and V20,V30 and MLD were derived from dose volume histogram (DVH).ResultsAll patients were treated with radiotherapy at the irradiation dose of 60～70Gy.Acute radiation pneumonitis occurred in 24 patients with 11 Grade Ⅰ,7 Grade Ⅱ,3 Grade Ⅲ,3 Grade Ⅳ.There were no significant difference between the pre-irradiation and the three months after irradiation for FVC (P＞0.05).But there were significant different between pre-irradiation and three months after irradiation for FEV1.0 and DLCO (P＜0.05).V20,V30 and MLD were observed in patients treated with high radiation pneumonitis.ConclusionsThere were close relationships among pulmonary function,DVH and radiation pneumonitis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
