1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Exerts Opposing Effects to IL-4 on MHC Class-II Antigen Expression,Accessory Activity,and Phagocytosis of Human Monocytes

To investigate the differentiation and activation of monocytes, the combined effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (D3) and IL-4 on human blood monocytes were examined with respect to expression of MHC class-II antigens, accessory activity, and phagocytic capacity. IL-4 was reported lo upregulate the expression of MHC class-II antigens and accessory activity of monocytes. The experiments described here demonstrate that D3 inhibits the expression of all three subtypes of MHC class-II antigens (HLA-DR, -DP and -DQ) as well as the accessory activity of monocytes. both in a dose- and time-dependent manner. However, D3 enhances the immunoglobulin- and complement-dependent phagocytosis by monocytes in a dose- and time-dependent manner. When monocytes are treated with both IL-4 and D3, the effects of D3 are reverted by IL-4. suggesting that IL-4 induces the development of monocytes into accessory cells, whereas D3 stimulates differentiation of monocytes into classical macrophages. These findings provide further evidence for the contention that, depending on defined stimuli, monocytes may develop either into accessory cells or into classical macrophages.

腹膜透析治疗老年慢性肾功能衰竭的临床分析

目的 分析持续性腹膜透析(PD)治疗老年慢性肾功能衰竭(CRF)患者的临床效果,探讨PD在老年CRF患者中的应用经验.方法 回顾性分析89例老年CRF患者接受PD(简称老年PD组)治疗后的临床表现和生化指标、主要并发症、存活率、死亡原因等,并与53例非老年PD组相比较.结果 老年PD组的原发疾病以糖尿病(37.08%)、原发性高血压(30.34%)为主,而非老年PD组则以肾小球肾炎(54.72%)为主.两组患者的1年与3年存活率差异无统计学意义,腹膜炎仍是两组患者退出PD的主要原因.老年组的病死率明显高于非老年组,感染与心脑血管病是两组患者的主要并发症和死亡原因.低钾血症在老年PD患者中非常普遍.结论 腹膜透析在老年CRF患者的治疗中有效,但长期存活仍受腹膜炎、心脑血管病并发症的影响,老年PD患者的低钾血症应引起足够的重视.     

肿瘤光动力治疗中组织氧含量的动态模型研究

目的：分析肿瘤光动力治疗中的组织氧含量的变化规律，研究影响肿瘤光动力治疗效果的与氧相关的因素,探讨改进光动力治疗的途径。方法：建立肿瘤光动力治疗中氧含量的动态模型，并采用Crank—Nicolson离散方法解析该模型，在时间域和空间域上，分析光动力过程中肿瘤氧含量的动态变化过程，研究光照的光功率密度、肿瘤初始氧含量等因素对光动力疗效的影响，并比较间断光照和连续光照两种方式的不同疗效。结果：肿瘤氧含量随着治疗时间和离血管的距离呈衰减趋势，光动力反应只发生在血管附近的有限区域，且区域大小与初始氧含量密切相关．在较高的初始氧含量下，更大区域的氧含量因为处于阈值Cth以上，所以能发生光动力反应。当采用较低的光功率密度光照治疗时,肿瘤氧含量衰减比高功率密度下慢；当采用间断光照进行光动力治疗时，在治疗黑暗期肿瘤氧含量能得到回升．有利于光照期的治疗。结论：初始氧含量较高的情况下治疗效果更好；在较低的光功率密度下，光动力反应较难进行，但是有利于保护肿瘤供氧源的工作。在较低的初始氧含量下，间断光照方式的疗效要比连续光照要好。

CD44+/CD24-细胞在乳腺癌组织及细胞系中的数量与分布

Objective To study the distribution and quantity of CD44VCD24- cells in breast cancer tissue and the cell lines,and as well as its correlation with the expression of various breast cancer markers and molecular subtyping of breast carcinoma.Methods The expression of CD44 / CD24,estrogen receptor,progesterone receptor,HER2,human estrogen-induced protein PS2,bcl-2 and nm23 in 60 cases of invasive ductal carcinoma of breast were studied by either single or double immunohistochemical staining.The co-expression of CD44 and CD24 in 3 breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7,MDA-MB-468,and MDA-MB- 231) was also examined.Results The quantity and distribution of CD44 + /CD24- cells varied greatly and no specific patterns were identified.The percentage of CD44 + /CD24- in breast cancer was 65%.The amount of CD44+/CD24- cells did not correlate with the age of patients,lymph node metastasis,tumor　 size,molecular subtypes and expression of various breast cancer markers in breast carcinoma.The proportion of CD44+/CD24- cells in MCF-7,MDA-MB-468,and MDA-MB-231 cell lines was < 1%,5% and > 80% ,respectively.Conclusions CD44+ /CD24- cells are demonstrated in certain breast cancer tissues and cell lines.However,there is no relationship obtained between the quantity or the distribution of these cells and the molecular subtyping or the clinicopathologic parameters in breast cancer.     

Comparison of the unlabeled and labeled pre-mRNA splicing assays in vitro

Pre-mRNA splicing is a fundamental process required for the expression of most metazoan genes. It is carried out by the spliceosome that catalyzes the removal of non-coding intron sequences to ligate exons into mature mRNA prior to transport and translation. The purpose of our study is to explore whether the in vitro unlabeled pre-mRNA splicing assay could be performed as an alternative method of splicing reaction other than the radiolabeled one. Two different splicing methods in vitro , P labeled and unlabeled pre-mRNA as the substrates in the reaction, were investigated. The radiolabeled products were visualized by autoradiography while the unlabeled products were observed by Ethidium Bromide (EB) staining. As a result, although there are more unspecific bands in the EB staining assay than 32P labeled one, the RNA products of in vitro splicing could be observed clearly. This suggests that the unlabeled pre-mRNA splicing assay can be an optional substitution for the isotope-labeled assay.
