肺腺癌细胞微环境及转移与黏附分子表达的关系

目的研究肺腺癌细胞生长环境及转移性与黏附分子CD44v6和CD29的表达关系。方法将起源相同、转移性不同的两个肺腺癌细胞系AGZY和Anip分别用简便肿瘤多细胞球体(MTS)培养法培养，并设常规单层贴壁细胞培养对照。通过倒置显微镜、扫描及透射电镜观察MTS形成情况，并用免疫组化法分别对MTS及贴壁细胞上CD44v6和CD29表达进行检测。结果MTS培养成功，贴壁细胞与MTS在细胞结构及细胞连接结构上相似，两种MTS在形态及结构上差异无显著性。免疫组化结果显示，CD29在高转移性的Anip细胞及其MTS上呈阳性表达；在低转移性的AGZY细胞及其MTS上阴性表达。CD44v6在Anip和AGZY细胞及MTS上均呈阳性表达，差异无显著性。贴壁细胞与MTS上两种黏附分子表达均无差异。结论成功建立了一种简易制备MTS的方法。细胞生长方式(单层贴壁与MTS)可能不影响CD44v6和CD29的表达。CD29表达可能与肺腺痛转移性相关；CD44v6表达可能与肺腺癌转移无关。

Serum protein media are important factors in the manual hexadimethrine bromide (polybrene) test, experience in China.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The use of the manual hexadimethrine bromide (polybrene) test in routine cross-matching after accurately detecting cell grouping and irregular antibodies is prevalent in China. This article reports the importance of serum protein mediums in the performance of the manual hexadimethrine bromide test. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood group O red blood cells and Blood group AB and Rh positive serum were collected at random from healthy blood donators, IgG anti-D serum separated from pregnant woman, then tested with each other by the manual hexadimethrine bromide methods in routine tests and some designed corresponding tests with IgG, IgM anti-D monoclonal diagnostic reagents and some serum protein components. RESULTS: Red blood cells that were adjusted to 3-5% suspension by normal saline then only added in 0.7 ml low ionic medium (LIM) and two drops of polybrene solution adhere to the surface of test tubes' bottom when centrifuged, so it was difficult to perform the next approach, but the adherence disappeared when red blood cells' concentrations exceeded 20-30%. Rh positive red blood cells coated by anti-D have the same phenomenon. This adherence can be prevented by serum medium diluted from 1:128 to 1:1024 times by normal saline and hemoglobin medium diluted from 1:32 to 1:128 times, but not by albumin or immunoglobulin medium. The denary logarithm values of the greatest inhibited dilutions of serum and hemoglobin elution between antibody sensitizing red blood cells and the same pre-sensitizing red blood cells tests were no significant difference (P value > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The whole serum or serum protein mediums are important factors that can influence successfully performance of the manual hexadimethrine bromide test. So appliance of the manual hexadimethrine bromide test to immunohematology laboratory, such as when performing titrations of serum or plasma, or when testing eluates for antibody activity, this adherence must be considered.     

Molecular identification of pathogenetic IdLNF+1 autoantibody idiotypes derived from the NZBxSWR F1 model for systemic lupus erythematosus

The acceleration of nephritis in SNF(1) mice by CD4(+) T-cell clones reactive with a nephritogenic idiotype, Id(LN)F(1) [1], as well as the ability of anti-Id(LN)F(1) antisera to down-regulate the production of Id(LN)F(+)(1) immunoglobulin (Ig) in vivo and delay nephritis [2], suggests that dysregulation of this idiotype may contribute to the development of SNF(1) nephritis. Herein, we show that a monoclonal Id(LN)F(1)-expressing antibody, 540, significantly (P< or = 0.01) stimulated Id(LN)F(1)-reactive T-cell clones B6 and D2 to proliferate, while other Id(LN)F+1 antibodies did not. Further, injection of 540-producing hybridoma cells into nonautoimmune (SWRxBalb/c)F(1) mice resulted in the deposition of Id(LN)F(+)(1) Ig in the kidneys, in a pattern indicative of early nephritis. To identify the pathogenetic Id(LN)F(1) epitope(s) at the molecular level, we compared the deduced amino acid sequences of the heavy and light chain variable regions of pathogenetic and non-pathogenetic Id(LN)F(1)-expressing Igs 540, 317, and 533. Two overlapping peptides derived from the V(H) sequence of 540 (aa 54-66 and 62-73), which both contain the triple basic amino acid motif K(X)K(X)K, stimulated SNF(1) T cells and T-cell clones B6 and D2. These results further support the involvement of a subset of Id(LN)F(1)-expressing Ig in SNF(1) nephritis.

Detection and identification ofMycobacterium avium in the blood of AIDS patients by the polymerase chain reaction

One hundred fifty-three blood samples from patients positive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect the presence ofMycobacterium avium. Samples were collected from patients who also had blood cultures performed by a radiometric method. Blood samples were centrifuged on a Ficoll-Hypaque gradient to purify peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The purified cells were washed and incubated with a resin, boiled to release mycobacterial DNA, and then amplified. Polymerase chain reaction products were detected by a nonisotopic method. A 123 base-pair (bp) insertion sequence, namely IS6110, fromMycobacterium tuberculosis complex was also included in the reaction as an internal control ofTaq polymerase activity to exclude the presence of enzyme inhibitors. This IS6110 fragment can be distinguished from the 383 bp target product on ethidium bromide-stained agarose gel and may also be used in a colorimetric assay. Such results were compared with the results of culture and indicated that the assay is as sensitive as bacteriological methods, though faster.     

Kinetics of the phenotype and function of murine peritoneal macrophages following acute inflammation

This study was undertaken to have a better understand for the process and the underlying mechanisms to limitmacrophage activation and population of activated macrophages.A comprehensive kinetics of cytokineproduction was performed in murine peritoneal macrophages recovered from Balb/c mice at various timeduring the course of an intraperitoneal injection with thioglycollate (TG).The expression of cell surfacemolecules such as MHC-Ⅰ,MHC-Ⅱ,B7-1 and B7-2 of these macrophages were also determined by flowcytometry.The present findings of our research suggested that the population of activated macrophages and theactivation of macrophages (including cytokines production and expression of cell surface functional molecules)were strictly controlled during inflammation process.This is one of the important mechanisms to retain the hosthomeostasis.Cellular & Molecular Immunology.2004;1(1):57-62.
