Use of egg yolk-derived immunoglobulin as an alternative to antibiotic treatment for control of Helicobacter pylori infection

The present study evaluated the potential use of immunoglobulin prepared from the egg yolk of hens immunized with Helicobacter pylori (immunoglobulin Y [IgY]-Hp) in the treatment of H. pylori infections. The purity of our purified IgY-Hp was 91.3%, with a yield of 9.4 mg of IgY per ml of egg yolk. The titer for IgY-Hp was 16 times higher than that for IgY in egg yolk from nonimmunized hens, and IgY-Hp significantly inhibited the growth and urease activity of H. pylori in vitro. Bacterial adhesion on AGS cells was definitely reduced by preincubation of both H. pylori (10(8) CFU/ml) and 10 mg of IgY-Hp/ml. In Mongolian gerbil models, IgY-Hp decreased H. pylori-induced gastric mucosal injury as determined by the degree of lymphocyte and neutrophil infiltration. Therefore, in this experimental model, H. pylori-associated gastritis could be successfully treated by orally administered IgY-Hp. The immunological activity of IgY-Hp stayed active at 60 degrees C for 10 min, suggesting that pasteurization can be applied to sterilize the product. Fortification of food products with this immunoglobulin would significantly decrease the H. pylori infection. In conclusion, the IgY-Hp obtained from hens immunized by H. pylori could provide a novel alternative approach to treatment of H. pylori infection.     

Development and selection of γδ T cells

Summary:  Two main lineages of T cells develop in the thymus: those that express the αβ T-cell receptor (TCR) and those that express the γδ TCR. Whereas the development, selection, and peripheral localization of newly differentiated αβ T cells are understood in some detail, these processes are less well characterized in γδ T cells. This review describes research carried out in this laboratory and others, which addresses several key aspects of γδ T-cell development, including the decision of precursor cells to differentiate into the γδ versus αβ lineage, the ordered differentiation over the course of ontogeny of functional γδ T-cell subsets expressing distinct TCR structures, programming of ordered Vγ gene rearrangement in the thymus, including a molecular switch that ensures appropriate Vγ rearrangements at the appropriate stage of development, positive selection in the thymus of γδ T cells destined for the epidermis, and the acquisition by developing γδ T cells of cues that determine their correct localization in the periphery. This research suggests a coordination of molecularly programmed events and cellular selection, which enables specialization of the thymus for production of distinct T-cell subsets at different stages of development.     

以合理用药绩效管理促进医院高质量发展

合理用药是保障医疗质量与安全的重要举措之一。通过设置合理用药绩效考核指标,管控重点药品涉及的科室及医生,审核处方、医嘱优化药物治疗方案,动态监测与超常预警异常用药,限制重点监控药品用量以及实时公示药品使用情况等一系列管控方法,2017年-2021年次均药品费用均保持在较低水平,处方合格率总体上升;2021年门急诊次均药品费用和住院次均药品费用均较2020年下降,处方合格率达99.05%,合理用药绩效指标整体完成情况良好,达到了预期目标。还需继续加大抗菌药物合理使用管理力度,强化临床药师实时审核医嘱,优化抗感染治疗方案等。

Radioprotective Effect of Whey Hydrolysate Peptides against γ-Radiation-Induced Oxidative Stress in BALB/c Mice

Radiation therapy is widely used in the treatment of tumor diseases, but it can also cause serious damage to the body, so it is necessary to find effective nutritional supplements. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the protective effect of whey hydrolysate peptides (WHPs) against ⁶⁰Coγ radiation damage in mice and explore the mechanism. BALB/c mice were given WHPs by oral gavage administration for 14 days. Then, some mice underwent a 30-day survival test after 8 Gy radiation, and other mice received 3.5 Gy radiation to analyze the changes in body weight, hematology and bone marrow DNA after three and 14 days. In addition, through further analysis of the level of oxidative stress and intestinal barrier function, the possible mechanism of the radioprotective effect of WHPs was explored. The study found WHPs can prolong survival time, restore body weight, and increase the number of peripheral blood white blood cells and bone marrow DNA content in irradiated mice. In addition, WHPs can significantly improve the antioxidant capacity, inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines and protect the intestinal barrier. These results indicate that WHPs have a certain radioprotective effect in mice, and the main mechanism is related to reducing oxidative damage.     

High-Fat Foods and FODMAPs Containing Gluten Foods Primarily Contribute to Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Korean Adults

Dietary control plays an important role in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). However, few studies have examined the relationship between dietary intake and symptoms of IBS in Koreans. The current cross-sectional study aimed to examine the diet in food consumption and nutrient intake in Korean adults aged 20 to 40 with IBS. The data collected were completed by 857 subjects using a community-based web survey. The questionnaire covered functional bowel disorders based on Rome III, the semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), and the food items causing symptoms. In total, 186 of 857 subjects (21.7%) were diagnosed with IBS. The non-IBS group had a fat intake of 76.9 ± 47.9 g/day, while the IBS group had a fat intake of 86.6 ± 55.1 g/day (p = 0.014). The non-IBS group had a total fermentable oligosaccharide, disaccharide, monosaccharide, and polyol (FODMAP) intake of 12.6 ± 9.7 g/day, whereas the IBS group had a total FODMAP intake of 13.9 ± 9.9 g/day (p = 0.030). Foods that contributed to the onset of symptoms in the IBS group were instant noodles (70.8%), Chinese noodles with vegetables and seafood (68.7%), pizza (67.2%), and black bean sauce noodles (66.3%) which are mostly classified as high fat and high gluten foods. The dietary intake of IBS patients differs from that of non-IBS subjects. Increased intake of gluten-containing or high-fat foods due to the westernized diet caused more IBS symptoms than high FODMAPs and dairy products in Korean adults in their 20 s to 40 s.

炎症性肠病患者巨细胞病毒感染危险因素

目的探讨炎症性肠病(IBD)患者巨细胞病毒(CMV)感染危险因素及CMV包膜糖蛋白H(gH)基因分型与临床疗效的关系。方法选取2015年2月-2019年12月河北北方学院附属第一医院收治的IBD患者362例,调查CMV感染情况以及临床疗效,多因素Logistic回归分析IBD患者合并CMV感染的危险因素,分析感染不同CMV gH基因型IBD患者临床特点及临床治疗效果。结果362例IBD患者中CMV感染患者122例,CMV感染率为33.70%,单因素分析结果显示,年龄≥40岁、重度IBD病情、广泛结肠型病变范围、糖皮质激素治疗、免疫抑制剂治疗、抗病毒治疗、激素依赖、结肠切除、临床治疗无效是IBD患者CMV感染的危险因素(P<0.05);多因素Logistic回归分析显示年龄≥40岁、重度IBD病情、广泛结肠型病变范围、糖皮质激素治疗、免疫抑制剂治疗是IBD患者CMV感染的独立危险因素;122例IBD合并CMV感染患者中gH 1型85例(69.67%)、gH 2型37例(30.33%);gH 1型与gH 2型IBD合并CMV感染患者的年龄≥40岁、广泛结肠型病变范围、糖皮质激素治疗、免疫抑制剂治疗、结肠切除结局以及激素依赖占比比较差异无统计学意义,而gH 1型患者病情严重程度比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),gH 1型与gH 2型患者的治疗有效率比较差异无统计学意义(χ²=0.017,P=0.895)。结论年龄≥40岁、重度病程、广泛结肠病变、糖皮质激素以及免疫抑制剂治疗会增加IBD患者CMV感染风险,IBD并CMV患者以gH1型为主,但gH基因分型不会影响临床疗效。
