ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:The CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells have immunosuppression effect, and it is speculated that these cells may restrain the occurrence of acute graft-versus-host disease. OBJECTIVE:To observe the variety of the CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells in the peripheral blood from donors before and after granulocyte colony stimulating factor mobilization, and study the relationship between CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells and acute graft-versus-host disease. METHODS:Ninety patients with malignant blood diseases who undertook al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation and their donors were observed. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor 5μg/kg was injected subcutaneously into the donor per 12 hours for 5 days, and the stem cells were col ected before and after mobilization. The ratio of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells in the peripheral blood was detected before and after mobilization with flow cytometry, and the ratio of these cells in the stem cellsuspension was measured by the same method. The patients were divided into two groups according to the CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells ratio:high dosage group (≥5%) and low dosage group (<5%). The incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease was observed in the two groups after transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The ratio of the CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells in the donor before and after mobilization were 11.3%and 1.5%,respectively, and there was a significant difference (P<0.05). The ratio of the CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells was 3.4%in the patients with acute graft-versus-host disease, and 15.7%in the patients with no acute graft-versus-host disease, showing a significant difference (P<0.05). After hematopoietic reconstitution, the incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease was 18.4%in the high dosage group and 48.1%in the low dosage group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Therefore, the granulocyte colony stimulating factor can lower the ratio of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells in the human peripheral blood. The increase in CD4+CD25+FOXP3+Treg cells can restrain the occurrence of acute graft-versus-host disease.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To research PHA-CIK cells' phenotype and cytotoxicity. Methods: Using phytohemagglutinin(PHA)to stimulate peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMNCs) for 24 h,then cultured like incubating cytokine induced killers by traditional method. On 15th day examined its immunophenotype by flow cytometry and using MTT method to evaluate cytotoxicity. Results: The ratio of CD3+,CD8+, CD3+ CD8+ and CD3+ CD56+ cells were high.PHA-CK cells cytotoxicity was strong in some degree.Conclusion:PHA-CIK cells had strong cytotoxicity.The result provides an experimental basis for biotherapy.
