尖锐湿疣患者外周血Thl/Th2及Tc1/Tc2亚群的检测及意义

Objective To investigate the role of T-helper (Th) and cytotoxic T (Tc) lymphocyte polarization in the pathogenesis of condyloma acuminatum (CA) and its correlation with recurrence. Methods Three-colour immunofluorescent flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD3+ CD8-/IFN-γ+ (Th1),CD3+CD8-/IL-4+ (Th2), CD3+ CD8+/IFN-γ+ (Tel) and CD3+ CD8+/IL-4+ (Tc2) cells in the peripheral blood of CA patients and health controls. Results Compared to health controls, CA patients showed a decreased number of Thl (P < 0.01) and Tcl cells (P < 0.05), as well as a decreased Th1/Th2 and Tc1/Tc2 ratio (P <0.05). Furthermore, in 15 recurrent CA patients the ratio of Th1/Th2 was remarkably decreased (P < 0.01),while the ratio of Tc1/Tc2 had no significant change in comparison with health controls. Conclusion The decrease of Th1 and Tc1 subsets results in relative Th2 and Tc2 predominance, and this tendency is more significant in recurrent CA patients. The Th1 to Th2 and Te1 to Tc2 shifts in CA patients could be responsible for the fact that human papilloma virus (HPV) is hard to be eliminated.

毛果芸香碱和布林佐胺滴眼液对兔眼表组织的影响

目的：探讨抗青光眼药物毛果芸香碱和布林佐胺滴眼液及各自的防腐剂三氯叔丁醇和氯化苯甲烃胺（BAC）对兔眼表组织的影响。方法:选取新西兰大白兔15只，分为正常对照组（3只）、毛果芸香碱组（A组，6只）和布林佐胺组（B组，6只）。用药组右眼使用青光眼药物毛果芸香碱或布林佐胺滴眼液，左眼使用对应的防腐剂三氯叔丁醇或BAC，连续用药30 d。取球结膜组织行苏木素－伊红（HE）染色计数结膜上皮层炎症细胞数；角膜行扫描电镜检测并进行上皮损害分级评分。结果:与正常对照组比较，布林佐胺滴眼液（P<0.01）和防腐剂BAC（P<0.01）导致球结膜上皮层炎症细胞浸润增多；毛果芸香碱滴眼液（P>0.05）和三氯叔丁醇（P>0.05）引起的球结膜炎症细胞增多不明显。布林佐胺滴眼液导致球结膜炎症细胞增加的程度较毛果芸香碱滴眼液严重（P<0.01）。青光眼药物和防腐剂均可导致兔角膜上皮超微结构的损伤，表现为角膜上皮细胞六边形结构变为不规则、边界不清、细胞膜皱缩、细胞间距增宽、上皮细胞表面的微绒毛丢失、细胞空洞和暗细胞增加。布林佐胺滴眼液和BAC引起的角膜损害较毛果芸香碱滴眼液（P<0.01）和三氯叔丁醇明显（P<0.05）。各组左右两眼的球结膜炎症细胞数和角膜损害评分均无显著差异。结论:布林佐胺滴眼液和防腐剂BAC使用1个月后可导致兔球结膜炎症细胞增加和角膜上皮细胞损伤，毛果芸香碱滴眼液和三氯叔丁醇主要引起角膜上皮超微结构的变化；防腐剂是引起眼表损伤的主要原因。布林佐胺滴眼液对兔眼表的损伤较毛果芸香碱滴眼液严重。     

Functional supertype of HLA-A2 in the presentation of Flu matrix p58-66 to induce CD8+ T-cell response in a Northern Chinese population

The functional supertype of HLA-A2 was investigated in the presentation of the A*0201-restricted Flu matrix p58-66 peptide to activate recall CD8+ T-cell response. In healthy Northern Chinese, the HLA-A2 supertype was mainly composed of the six alleles, A*0201 (26.4%), A*0206 (12.7%), A*0203 (8.2%), A*0207 (7.3%), A*0210 (1.8%) and A*0205 (0.9%), as analyzed by PCR using sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) and sequence based typing (SBT). The IFN-gamma release Elispot assay was employed to assess effector CD8+ T cells. In A*0201-bearing individuals, the CD8+ T-cell response was potent when stimulated with autologous CD8- PBMCs. The frequency of the effector CD8+ T cells was 96.6% with the magnitude of effector CD8+ T cells of 225 SFC/5 x 104 CD8+ T cells and the RI of 25.7. In non-A*0201 individuals, the effector CD8+ T cells were minimally detectable while the peptide was presented by the autologous CD8- PBMCs. However, the induction of the response of CD8+ T cells obtained from non-A*0201 individuals was remarkably improved when the peptide was presented by autologous dendritic cells instead of CD8- PBMCs. The HLA-A2 alleles possessing cross-reactivity in the peptide presentation were mainly of A*0206 and non-A*0201 heterozygotes of A*0206 and A*0210. Moreover, A*0206 as the HLA-A2 functional supertype was further confirmed by tetramer assay. In two A*0206+ donors with CD8+ T-cell response to the peptide, the CD8+ T-cell frequency assessed by specific binding of peptide HLA-A*0201 tetramer was 4.62% and 1.66%, respectively. Thus, our results have substantiated the immunological relevance of the HLA-A2 supertype, which may benefit the design of peptide vaccines with the potential to be applicable in broader populations.     

Aperture modulated arc therapy

We show that it is possible to translate an intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) treatment plan and deliver it as a single arc. This technique is referred to in this paper as aperture modulation arc therapy (AMAT). During this arc, the MLC leaves do not conform to the projection of the target PTV and the machine output of the accelerator has a constant value. Dose was calculated using the CORVUS 4.0 IMRT system, which uses a pencil beam dose algorithm, and treatments were delivered using a Varian 2100C/D Clinac. Results are presented for a head and neck and a prostate case, showing the equivalence of the IMRT and the translated AMAT delivery. For a prostate AMAT delivery, coronal plane film dose for the IMRT and AMAT deliveries agreed within 7.19 +/- 6.62%. For a meningioma the coronal plane dose distributions were similar to a value of 4.6 +/- 6.62%. Dose to the isocentre was measured as being within 2% of the planned value in both cases.

Glycoconjugate metabolism in a cystic fibrosis knockout mouse model

Cystic fibrosis knockout mice (cftr(-/-)) die prematurely of obstruction of the intestine which may result from accumulation of dehydrated glycoconjugate-containing mucus. We noted an increase in the specific activity of [(14)C]glucosamine-labeled high-molecular weight glycoconjugates, probably mucin, in the lumen of the intestine of cftr(-/-) (homozygous) mice compared to cftr(+/+) (wild-type) and cftr(+/-) (heterozygous) mice and a decrease in the turnover of glycoconjugates of several organs of the cftr(-/-) mice. No difference in the anionic composition of secreted intestinal glycoconjugates was detected and no difference in the amount of mucin 1 (Muc1) was found in the small intestine, colon, pancreas, and lungs of the different genotypes. In addition, the spleen of the cftr(-/-) mice was significantly smaller than that of control mice and the small intestine and colon were, respectively, longer and shorter compared to control mice. These results indicate modified glycoconjugate metabolism in cystic fibrosis knockout mice and morphologic changes to the spleen and intestine where the latter modifications are possibly related to the intestinal malabsorption associated with cystic fibrosis.
