【Abstract】Objective The effects of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) on cellular immunologic function of patients with breast cancer were studied. Methods Twenty five patients with breast cancer were treated by the TIL that were isolated from tissue of tumor. T cell subgroups and natural killer cell (NK cell) activity of peripheral blood, the levels of serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) were assayed before and after treatment. Results CD3, CD4, CD4/CD8 and NK cell activity were ascended obviously, and CD8, sIL-2R were descended obviously after the treatment of TIL. Conclusion TIL can enhance the cellular immunologic function of patients with breast cancer.
【Abstract】Objective This study was conducted to build experimental model of orthotopic liver transplantation in rat (ROLT) with the character of acute rejection; and to study the effect of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 immunoglobulin G (CTLA4Ig) on prevention of rejection and the induction of immune tolerance of ROLT. Methods Build model of Wistar→SD ROLT(performed by the two cuff method) with character of acute rejection.Recipients were injected with CTLA4Ig 75 μg per ROLT into abdominal cavity after 2 days of operation. Contrast was made with no treatment group, the clinical characters, the liver function, the transplantated liver pathologic character and the concentrations of TNFα in serum were observed and measured on postoperative day 7. In treatment group, all above observation were done on postoperative month 4. Above all, determination of the effect of CTLA4Ig on preventing acute rejection and inducing tolerance in ROLT was observed.Results ①Recipients (no treatment group) died one by one within 6th～14th days; pathologic character of rejection in transplantation liver could be found; ② In treatment group, on postoperative day 7 and month 4, no clinical rejection character and no pathologic character of rejection in transplantation liver were found and serum concentration of cytokins related to TNFα found lower than that of contrast group(P＜0.05), and serum concentration of ALT、AST、TBIL、DBIL found lower too(P＜0.05); But serum concentration of TP and Alb was found higher than that of contrast group(P＜0.05). Conclusion ① CTLA4Ig treatment alone inhibits the rejection responce in ROLT. ② CTLA4Ig treatment can Prevent rejection and induce immune tolerance in ROLT model with characters of acute rejection; the serum concentration of cytokins related to TNFα can probably be used as evaluation standard of rejection in ROLT rejection.
Objective To observe the turbulence of regional intra-artery implantation chemotherapy and peripheral venous chemotherapy on immunologic function of patients. Methods Two weeks after radical operation of gastric carcinoma, chemotherapy was performed. Eighty-three patients were divided into two groups, one (42 patients) received peripheral venous chemotherapy (PVC) and the other (41 patients) received regional intra-artery implantation pump chemotherapy (RAIPC). The serum T-lymphocyte subsets and immunoglobulin level before and 1-4 days after the chemotherapy were measured. Results After PVC, proportion of CD3 and CD4, CD4/CD8 and IgG, IgA, IgM concentration in PVC group were significantly decreased compared with those before PVC （P＜0.05， P＜0.01）, and it is the same when compared with postRAIPC patients except for CD4 and IgM （P＜0.05）. In RAIPC group, there were no significant changes in proportion of CD3, CD4 and CD8, CD4/CD8 and IgG, IgA concentration between pre- and post-RAIPC patients. Conclusion After radical operation of gastric carcinoma, RAIPC affects the immunologic function more moderate than PVC.
【Abstract】 Objective To study the role of house dust mite ( HDM) induced airway epithelium TLR4 expression and T lymphocyte activation in asthmatic inflammation. Methods Thirty BALB/ c mice were randomly divided into an ovalbumin ( OVA) group, a HDMgroup, and a control group. The mice in the OVA group were sensitized with OVA and Al( OH) 3 , and repeatedly exposed to aerosolized OVA. The mice in the HDMgroup and the control group were sensitized and challenged with HDMand saline, respectively.Histopathology changes of pulmonary tissue and airway were observed under light microscope. Levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-17, and IFN-γin BALF were measured by ELISA. Total and differential cell counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid ( BALF) were also measured. The mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4 weredetected by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. Th1, Th2, and cells in the peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry. Results Light microscope revealed eosinophil specific inflammatory cells infiltration around the peribronchovascular region,mucus gland hyperplasia, and airway mucous plug inthe OVA group. The HDM group showed more severe alveolar and intersititial congestion and neutrophils infiltration. The control group showed intact alveolus with few mucous plug and inflammatory cells.Compared with the OVA group, significant increases in the number of total cells and neutrophils, as well as significantly higher expression of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IL-17 were detected in the HDMgroup ( P lt;0. 05) ,while IFN-γexpression had no significant change ( P gt;0. 05) . The expression of TLR4 mRNA and protein significantly increased in the HDMgroup( P lt; 0. 05) , and did not change significantly in the other two groups ( P gt;0. 05) . The percentages of Th2 and Th17 cells in peripheral blood in the HDMgroup were significantly higher than the OVA group ( P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion HDM may induce inflammatory cells infiltration andactivation of Th2 and Th17 lymphocyte cells via up-regulation of TLR4 expression in airway epithelium,which might play an important role in asthmatic inflammation.
ObjectiveTo study the contents of CD44 that shared exon variant 5 (CD44v5) in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) of patients with gastric carcinoma and the expression of CD44v5 in tumor tissue and their clinical significance. MethodsThe contents of CD44v5 were determined by FlowCytometry in PBL of 31 patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery and 10 normal controls. Tissue expression of CD44v5 in 33 patients with gastric carcinoma was investigated by immunohistochemistry. ResultsThe contents of CD44v5 were significantly higher in PBL of patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery than those of controls (P＜0.01). Nodepositive gastric cancer patients showed significantly elevated contents of CD44v5 in PBL in comparison with nodenegative gastric cancer (P＜0.01）. Significant correlations were noted between the contents of CD44v5 in PBL of patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery and tumor size, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and different the Vnion International Centre Le Cancer (VICC) stages of tumor (P＜0.05). The expression of CD44v5 could be detected in 69.7% of tumor tissue,but was not detected in adjacent normal gastric mucosa. Significant correlations were noted between CD44v5 expression and depth of invasion,and lymph node metastasis.The presence of CD44v5 protein was correlated with the lymph node involvement rate. Conclusion CD44v5 in PBL or tumor tissue may be useful as a metastatic marker. It may be of important clinical value in the diagnosis of metastasis and judgement of development for the patients with gastric cancer.
目的 提高对成人系统性Epstein-Barr（EB）病毒阳性T细胞淋巴组织增殖性疾病（ASEBV+T-LPD）肠道病变的认识。 方法 报道2012年3月－10月我院收治的2例以肠道病变为首发表现的ASEBV+T-LPD，并结合3例文献报道进行分析讨论。 结果 2例成人患者以腹泻为主要表现，伴有发热、淋巴结长大，初期分别误诊为结核及肠道感染，淋巴结病检提示多克隆EBER+的T淋巴细胞浸润，确诊ASEBV+T-LPD。例1经3 周期GLIDE方案（吉西他滨+门冬酰胺酶+异环磷酰胺+地塞米松+依托泊苷）化学疗法（化疗）后疾病进展，死于肺部感染。例2经干扰素联合抗病毒药物治疗，病情稳定。复习文献目前仅3例以肠道病变为首发表现的ASEBV+T-LPD被报道，早期均被误诊为炎性肠病或感染，3例均出现肠道穿孔或大出血等并发症，其中2例死亡。 结论 成人系统性EB病毒阳性T细胞淋巴组织增殖性疾病的肠道病变较为罕见，容易误诊为结核及炎性肠病。部分患者病情进展迅速，可出现肠道穿孔及消化道大出血等致死性并发症，死亡率高，预后差。确诊本病需密切结合临床和病理学检查。常规化疗及抗病毒治疗仅部分有效，不能维持长期缓解。
目的：了解左旋门冬酰胺酶（L-ASP）对儿童急性淋巴细胞白血病凝血功能变化的影响。方法：观察86例患儿在诱导缓解后治疗期间，L-ASP使用前后活化部分凝血活酶时间(APTT)、凝血酶原时间(PT)、凝血酶时间(TT)、纤维蛋白原(FIB)、抗凝血酶Ⅲ(AT-Ⅲ)、D-二聚体变化情况。结果：与用药前比,用药结束后一天的PT、APTT、TT均显著延长(P＜0.01);FIB、AT-Ⅲ显著降低(P＜0.01),D-二聚体显著升高(P＜0.01);用药结束后1周时PT、APTT、TT、D-二聚体较用药前差异无显著性,FIB、AT-Ⅲ虽有回升,但仍低于正常(P＜0.01)。结论：L-ASP可引起ALL患儿凝血功能异常，尤其对FIB、AT-Ⅲ影响明显，应引起临床高度重视。Ｌ-Ａｓｐ主要影响蛋白质的合成而引起蛋白质成份的凝血因子减少,从而引起凝血功能障碍,且对纤维蛋白原的合成影响更为显著。
Effect of radical operation on expression of interleukin-2(IL-2)mRNA and production of IL-2 were markedly reduced preoperatively and four weeks after operation,expression of IL-2 mRNA significantly enhanced,but it was still lower than that in the normal group.Production of IL-2 nearly reached normal level,When PBL was activated by phytohemagglutinin(PHA),expresseion of IL-2 mRNA and production of IL-2 were much higher than that in non-activated PBL.These results suggested that expression of IL-2 were much higher than that in non-activated PBL.These results suggested that expression of IL-2 mRNA and production of IL-2 are dificient in gastric cancer patients,and radical surgery will help them to recover and they can also be improved through activation with PHA.
ObjectiveTo investigate the predictive value of preoperative D-dimer, CA19-9, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. MethodsThe clinicopathologic data of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic occupying lesions in the First and Fifth Affiliated Hospitals of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2016 to December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the pathological characteristics, the patients were divided into pancreatic cancer and pancreatic benign tumour. The gender, age, accompanying diseases, preoperative D-dimer, CA19-9, lymphocyte count, neutrophil count, NLR and so on were compared between them. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of preoperative D-dimer, CA19-9, and NLR for diagnosis of pancreatic cancer were draw. ResultsA total of 142 patients were collected, including 79 patients with pancreatic cancer and 63 patients with pancreatic benign tumour. Compared with the patients with pancreatic benign tumour, the age was older (P<0.05), the number of neutrophils was more (P<0.05), the number of lymphocytes was less (P<0.05), the preoperative levels of CA19-9 and D-dimer, and the preoperative NLR were higher (P<0.05) for the patients with pancreatic cancer. The multivariate analysis of logistic regression revealed that the preoperative higer CA19-9, D-dimer, and NLR increased the incidence of pancreatic cancer (P<0.05), then the optimal cut-off value of preoperative levels of CA19-9 and D-dimer, and preoperative NLR on diagnosis of pancreatic cancer was 108 U/mL, 306 μg/L and 3.2, respectively, the corresponding area under ROC curve was 0.900, 0.891, 0.768, respectively, and which of combination of preoperative CA19-9, D-dimer, and NLR was 0.931. For the pancreatic cancer patients with preoperative NLR, CA19-9, and D-dimer higher than the optimal cut-off value, the proportions of patients with pTNM stage Ⅲ and lymph node metastasis were higher than those for pancreatic cancer patients with below than optimal cut-off value (P<0.05). ConclusionFrom preliminary study results, preoperative CA19-9, D-dimer, and NLR values have certain values in diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, and diagnostic value of combined detection of 3 indexes is higher than single index.
