Treatment of ulcerative colitis by traditional Chinese medicine and dynamic study of immune functions

The effect of the traditional Chinese medicinal herbs enema and enteric-coated capsules in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) were compared in 260 cases. The immune complexes and the dynamic change of autoantibodies were monitored in 28 out of the 260 cases before and after treatment. The following results were observed. (1) There was no significant difference in the total effective rate between the enema group and the oral capsule group (93.3% and 87.5% respectively), but the recovery rates of purulent hemafecia, mucusfecia and erosion accompanying colitis, etc. in the former group were higher than those in the latter (P less than 0.01). (2) The circulating immune complexes were found 43 times above the normal range in 17 cases with positive rate 60.7%, and tended to decrease as the condition became better after treatment. Antinuclear antibodies were determined by the indirect fluorescent immune method and the indirect enzyme labelling method and the positive rates were 53.6% and 64.7% respectively, both being much higher than those in the controls (P less than 0.01).

目的 :检测B细胞淋巴瘤 (B NHL)中肿瘤浸润T细胞 (TIL T)的活化标记IL 2Rα(CD2 5 )的基因及蛋白表达 ,寻找TIL T在B NHL肿瘤微环境中存在意义的实验依据。方法 :将 19例B NHL提取RNA ,采用RT PCR和SSCP检测其IL 2Rα的Ⅳ Ⅷ外显子基因突变与否 ;19例B NHL采用细胞免疫化学染色进行CD3、CD4、CD8、CD2 0、CD2 5细胞免疫表型的分析 ;2 9例B NHL和 2 0例良性淋巴组织 ,采用冰冻切片免疫组化方法进行IL 2Rα(CD2 5 )蛋白表达的检测。结果 :SSCP显示 19例TIL -T的IL 2Rα未发现异常泳动条带。细胞免疫化学染色示B NHL中 5 2 .6 3% (10 /19例 )的CD2 5 +细胞少于 10 % ,TIL T(CD3+)与CD4相关 (r =0 .5 7,P <0 .0 1)并与CD2 5相关 (r =0 .5 0 ,P <0 .0 5 )。免疫组化示 86 .2 % (2 5 /2 9例 )的B NHL中CD2 5表达 (+/- )和 (+) ,且主要表达在TIL T细胞上 ,呈散在分布 ,阳性细胞少于T标记细胞。结论 :19例TIL T的IL 2Rα在RNA水平未发现基因异常 ;CD2 5蛋白在B NHL中呈弱表达趋势。提示部分TIL T不表达CD2 5 ,推测TIL T的IL 2Rα的表达在转录后机制中可能出现异常或TIL T存在活化障碍。     

Effects of Platelet Factor 4 on Expression of Bone Marrow Heparan Sulfate in Syngenic Bone Marrow Transplantation Mice

Platelet factor 4 ( PF4) is a negativehematopoietic factor.It can inhibit the prolifera-tion of endothelial cells and hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells,particularly megakaryoryocyticcells,reversibly[1] ,inhibit DNA synthesis,blockcell cycle progression during S phase and reducethe sensibility of normal hematopoietic stem/pro-genitor cells,but not some cancer or leukemia celllines,to cytotoxic drugs and ionizing radia-tion[2 - 3] ,and it also can cause a population in-crease of the stem cel…     

赤芍总苷对沙土鼠全脑缺血再灌注损伤的保护作用

OBJECTIVE: To study the protective effects of the total paeony glycoside (TPG) against global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in gerbils. METHODS: Gerbils models of global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury were prepared by bilateral common carotid artery ligation for 12 min followed by 24-hour reperfusion. The effects of TGP on brain edema index, superoxide dismatase (SOD) activity and malonaldehyde (MDA) concentration of the cerebral tissue homogenate and pathology of the brain were examined 24 h after model establishment. RESULTS: Compared with the model group, TPG at the doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg could significantly relieve brain edema, enhance SOD activity and lower MDA concentration in the gerbils. Pathological examination showed that the gerbils with TPG treatment had milder injury of the cells in the hippocampal CA1 region. CONCLUSIONS: TPG has obvious protective effects against global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.     

Onychomycosis caused by Fusarium solani in a woman with diabetes

A case of untreated fusarial onychomycosis leading to serious consequences is reported. Fusarium solani is a widespread fungus and an occasional human pathogen. It usually invades rapidly in immunocompromised hosts, and often results in a poor outcome despite treatment. We report a woman with diabetes mellitus who had untreated fusarial infection of the nails, which developed into subcutaneous fusariosis, superinfected by bacteria, and then evolved into osteomyelitis that subsequently resulted in septic shock. Early management of mycotic nails in immunocompromised hosts is crucial to prevent life‐threatening disease.     

近红外光谱仪监测窒息新生儿听觉刺激诱发时的脑氧合代谢及脑血流变化

目的了解窒息新生儿在听觉刺激诱发脑神经活动时的脑氧合代谢和脑血流量的改变。 方法1998~2003年北京中日友好医院儿科选择窒息新生儿34例为窒息组，健康新生儿40名为对照组。使用近红外光谱仪，观察听觉刺激试验诱发的脑氧合血红蛋白\[Hb O2\]、还原血红蛋白\[Hb H\]和总血红蛋白\[Hb tot\]浓度的变化，并比较两组脑氧合代谢和脑血流量的改变。根据\[Hb O2\]、\[Hb H\]和\[Hb tot\]不同的变化，将氧合代谢曲线分为A(\[Hb O2\]、\[Hb H\]和\[Hb tot\]均增加)； B(\[Hb O2\]和\[Hb tot\]增加,\[Hb H\]降低)；C(\[Hb O2\]和\[Hb tot\]降低,\[Hb H\]增加)3种曲线类型。 结果窒息组中25例(25/34、73.5%)显示C型变化，对照组中28例(28/40、70.0%)显示A型变化，两组中A、C两型例数比较差异显著(P<0.05)。两组\[Hb O2\]和\[Hb tot\]数值变化幅度比较差异显著(P<0.05)。 结论窒息新生儿听觉刺激诱发相应皮层的神经活动时，显示局部脑血流量下降、氧合代谢降低，重度窒息儿更明显。     

Delta hepatitis virus infection in China

To assess the prevalence, epidemiological features and prognostic implications of hepatitis D (Delta) in Sichuan Province, The People's Republic of China, 649 sera (515 from HBsAg positive patients and 134 from HBsAg negative subjects) were tested by radioimmunoassay (RIA) for antibody to the hepatitis D virus (anti-HD). Forty-seven sera (7.2%) showed some degree of reactivity. Serial dilutions of these sera indicated that prozoning was not responsible for the equivocal results. Thirty-four of the 47 sera were submitted under code to a second laboratory for independent analysis. According to those results anti-HD antibodies were detected in four of these sera. The overall prevalence of anti-HD in the HBsAg positive patients therefore was 0.8% (4/515). On the basis of clinical, biochemical and histological data 427 HBsAg positive sera were further divided into acute Type B hepatitis, chronic Type B hepatitis, healthy carrier state and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) subgroups. Two of 65 (3.1%) anti-HD positive sera belonged to the acute Type B hepatitis group; one of 104 (0.9%), the chronic Type B hepatitis group and one of 246 (0.4%), the healthy carrier group. No antibody was detected in sera from 12 HBsAg positive HCC patients. All HBsAg negative patients were negative for anti-HD antibody. The results of this study indicate that despite a high prevalence of hepatitis B virus infection, positive serology for delta virus is uncommon in Sichuan Province, The People's Republic of China.
