ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate immune function of patients with multiple myeloma ( MM) by detect the changes of the Treg cells in bone marrow of patients with MM .Methods Treg cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow of 45 patients with MM and 15 healthy controls were measured by flow cytometry .Results The per-centage of Treg cells in peripheral blood of MM was higher than that in healthy person ;The percentage of Treg cells in MM bone marrow was lower than that in healthy person ,and the extent was positively correlated with the level of β2-MG and ISS(P<0.05).Conclusion MM Patients display an abnormal level of CD 4 +CD25 +Treg cells,which may be an important mechanism of MM immune deficiency .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To survey the distribution of class Ⅰ integron in extended-spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and its contribution in horizontal transfer of ESBLs genes.METHODS The presence of class Ⅰ integron among 230 ESBLs-producers and 197 non-ESBLs-producers of E.coli and K.pneumoniae were detected by PCR.The correlation and co-transfer between integron and genes coding for SHV,CTX and TEM were studied. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-seven(59.6%) isolates were positive for intⅠ gene among ESBLs-producers,contrasted to 48(24.4%) in non-ESBLs-producers(P
