Mechanism of Graft Damage Caused by NTPDase1-activated Macrophages in Acute Antibody-Mediated Rejection

ObjectivesTo investigate the effect and mechanism of macrophage activation and graft damage caused by nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 1 (NTPDase1) in acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR).MethodsAcute AMR was induced in different skin-grafted nude mouse models with wild-type NTPDase1 expression, transgene-enhanced NTPDase1 expression, or NTPDase1 gene knockout. Several methods (eg, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, high-performance liquid chromatography [HPLC], immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, and luciferin/luciferase assays) were used to study (at the histologic and molecular levels) the extracellular adenosine diphosphate (ADP) concentration, macrophage proliferation, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen expression on the surface of macrophages, B-cell activating factor (BAFF) expression in the peripheral blood serum, and the total number of SmIg-positive B cells during acute AMR. The relative activity of NTPDase1 in B cells and epithelial cells, pathologic changes, and the incidence of positive C4d deposition around the capillaries of skin grafts on the different nude mice were studied.ResultsMacrophages proliferated significantly when acute AMR occurred. The higher the NTPDase1 expression level, the lower the extracellular ADP concentration, the expression of MHC class II antigens on the surface of macrophages, the expression of BAFF in the peripheral blood serum, and the total number of SmIg-positive B cells, indicating negative correlations. The relative activity of NTPDase1 in B cells and epithelial cells of the skin graft was different among the different mice. The higher the NTPDase1 expression level, the lower the degree of pathologic damage to the skin graft.ConclusionsImbalance in extracellular ADP degradation by NTPDase1 may promote macrophage activation, and activated macrophages may be an important cause of graft damage.     

Clinicopathological characteristics,prognosis, and chemosensitivity in patients with metastatic upper tract urothelial carcinoma

PurposeTo investigate the clinical characteristics, chemosensitivity, and outcome of metastatic upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Patients and MethodsRecords of patients with metastatic UTUC since January 2005 were retrieved from a database that included clinical and survival data. Statistical analyses including survival and multivariate analyses of factors were respectively performed by the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model.ResultsA total of 250 consecutive UTUC cases were evaluated. There were 56 patients (22.4%) with initially diagnosed stage IV disease. The most common metastatic sites were lung (39.6%), distant lymph nodes (39.2%), bone (19.6%), liver (18.0%), and adrenal gland (7.2%), respectively, and the local recurrence rate was 10.4%. Two hundred thirteen patients received first-line chemotherapy. The overall response rate was only 28.7% and the median progression-free survival time was only 5.0 months. The overall survival time of the cohort was 18.0 months. Multivariate analyses showed that initially diagnosed stage IV disease, number of metastatic organs ≥3, no response to chemotherapy and cycles of chemotherapy ≤2 were adverse prognosticators for overall survival.ConclusionUTUC presented to be more prone to metastasize than locally recur and thought to have low chemosensitivity. Stage IV disease at initial diagnosis, number of metastatic organs, response and cycles of chemotherapy were independent prognosticators for metastatic UTUC.     

安宫牛黄丸治疗基底节区脑出血患者颅内高压疗效观察及对血清B 型钠尿肽水平的影响

目的：观察安宫牛黄丸治疗基底节区脑出血患者颅内高压疗效及对氧化应激指标以及血清B 型钠 尿肽（BNP） 水平的影响。方法：选取80 例痰热内闭证基底结节区脑出血患者,按随机数字表法分为观察组 及对照组各40 例,对照组接受脑出血颅内高压常规方案治疗,观察组在对照组基础上联合安宫牛黄丸治疗。 比较2 组治疗前后颅内压（ICP）、平均动脉压（MAP）、心率（HR）、中医证候积分、总抗氧化能力（T-Aoc）、超氧 化物歧化酶（SOD） 以及BNP 水平的变化。结果：治疗后,2 组ICP、MAP 水平均较治疗前下降（P＜0.05）, HR 水平均较治疗前上升（P＜0.05）;观察组ICP、MAP 水平均低于对照组（P＜0.05）,HR 水平高于对照 组（P＜0.05）。治疗后,剧烈头痛、动作迟缓、嗜睡中医证候积分均较治疗前下降（P＜0.05）,观察组上述 3 项中医证候积分均低于对照组（P＜0.05）。治疗后,2 组T-Aoc、SOD 水平均较治疗前上升（P＜0.05）,BNP 水平均较治疗前下降（P＜0.05）;观察组T-Aoc、SOD 水平均高于对照组（P＜0.05）,BNP 水平低于对照 组（P＜0.05）。结论：安宫牛黄丸治疗痰热内闭证基底节区脑出血患者,能有效改善颅内高压,缓解氧化应激 反应,促进心脏功能的恢复。     

煤的热解研究III.煤中官能团与热解生成物

借助化学分析和ＦＴＩＲ光谱分析对我国煤化程度不同的１８ 种煤中官能团的研究表明：煤中官能团含量与煤化程度有关;煤中羧基、羟基及醚键等其他含氧官能团的含量与热解生成物ＣＯ２、Ｈ２Ｏ 和ＣＯ 的产率有关,脂肪—ＣＨ 的含量与甲烷和焦油的产率相关联,芳香—ＣＨ 的含量与热解半焦产率有关。煤的热解生成物主要是煤中官能团的断裂所致。
