白介素-12家族与实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎的研究进展

实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎(EAE)是自身反应性CD4+T细胞,即辅助性T细胞(Th细胞)介导的自身免疫性中枢神经系统脱髓鞘性炎症,在EAE的发病中,Th细胞分泌的细胞因子起了重要的调节作用。白介素-12(IL-12)家族由IL-12和最近发现的白介素-23(IL-23)、白介素-27(IL-27)组成,是一类结构相似、具有共价结合的杂化双链的细胞因子,在细胞免疫尤其是Th1型炎症反应中,起重要的调节作用。本文综合论述了IL-12家族各成员与EAE的关系的研究,揭示了各因子在EAE发生发展中的作用。     

Comparison of the use of bulk to micro culture of cell preparations for lymphokine-activated cytotoxicity assays.

Different assay systems have been used to quantitate lymphokine-induced natural cytotoxic activity as a measure of immune status. This study compares the effects of inducing cytotoxicity in a bulk culture system, where effector cells are transferred to a micro culture well for assay, to a micro culture system where the effector cells are not transferred. The effector/target ratio for both the bulk and micro culture systems was calculated using the number of viable effector cells present at the time of target cell addition. After overnight incubation with interleukin-2 (IL-2), the lytic activity of murine spleen cells to targets using a micro culture system was increased two-fold over the bulk culture method. This increase was amplified further after 5 days of activation with IL-2, in that the micro culture system resulted in a four-fold increase in cytotoxic activity. The loss of some adherent cells in the bulk culture system did not explain the overall decrease in recovered cytotoxicity. The difference appeared to be related to cell loss during centrifugation. Therefore, the E/T ratios are different in the two systems if not corrected for the number of viable cells.

The influence of anaesthetic techniques and type of delivery on peripartum serum interleukin-6 concentrations

Background: Interleukin-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine with a wide range of physiological activities. It plays an important role in the immuno-neuro-humoral axis during stress and surgery.
Methods: Serum interleukin-6 in parturients was measured on hospital admission, immediately after birth and 12 and 24 hours later. All parturients had uncomplicated pregnancies, and delivered vaginally without (n=31) or with (n=20) epidural analgesia, or underwent Caesarean section under epidural (n=20) or general (n=10) anaesthesia.
Results: Serum interleukin-6 assayed immediately following Caesarean section was low, but peaked 12 hours later, irrespective of the anaesthetic technique or other foetomaternal characteristics. Patients who delivered vaginally showed the highest interleukin-6 levels immediately after delivery. These were positively correlated with serum interleukin-6 on admission and duration of labour. Serum interleukin-6 was significantly higher in parturients who had epidural analgesia, and was significantly lower in those receiving intravaginal prostaglandins compared to those without prostaglandins.
Conclusion: The interleukin-6 response after Caesarean section can be explained by a generalized acute phase response to surgery, with no anaesthetic, maternal or neonatal interference. The rapid increase in peripartum serum interleukin-6 levels after vaginal delivery reflects, in part, cervical ripening or labour, their physiological triggers and psychological or physical stress. Regional anaesthesia, duration of labour and exogenous prostaglandin administration can modulate the peripartum interleukin-6 response and subsequently the physiological effects of this cytokine.     

IL-2激活的TIL对自体肿瘤细胞的杀伤活性及其与LAK细胞活性的比较

肿瘤浸润性淋巴细胞(TIL)经白细胞介素2(IL-2)体外培养后具有很强的体内外抗肿瘤作用,且有一定的靶细胞特异性,其抗肿瘤效果强于淋巴因子激活的杀伤细胞即LAK细胞(P<0.01)。从瘤体中新鲜分离到的TIL对自体肿瘤细胞的杀伤活性极低,经IL-2体外培养后,其杀伤活性逐渐增高,以培养至7～25d的杀伤活性最强,这与IL-2使TIL分泌3种抗癌淋巴因子包括IL-2、IFN-γ、淋巴毒素(LT)增加有关。体外培养25d后,TIL的抗肿瘤活性下降,实验表明这与培养过程中TIL的Lyt-2~+细胞(Tc)减少而L3T4~+细胞(T_H)增多有关。TIL经冻存复苏和IL-2体外培养后仍保持很强的抗肿瘤活性,冻存前后比较未见显著差异(P>0.05),这为间断地运用TIL治疗复发性、晚期肿瘤提供了一条可行的途径。
