ABSTRACT

Extra-nodal malignant lymphoma is often characterized by a lack of typical symptoms and positive results of auxiliary examinations, which make diagnosis difficult. In some cases, fever can be the only clinical manifestation. For the lymphoma patients presenting with persistent fever with a duration over 3 weeks, characteristics of fever including time of fever attack, fever type and effects of drugs may have significant value in the diagnosis, especially in the early stage of the disease or in rare cases.

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of nano-realgar in treatment of systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) lupus nephritis (LN). Intragastric administration of equal volume of high-, middle-, low-dose nano-realgar suspension, and normal saline (NS) were given to MRL/lpr mice, respectively. The observations were made on levels of ANA, ds-DNA antibody, IgG and IgM in blood serum, as well as TWEAK, NF-κB, MCP-1 mRNA and protein expression levels in renal tissues. The results showed that compared with the NS group, levels of ANA, ds-DNA antibody, IgG and IgM were obviously reduced (P < 0.05); the levels of TWEAK, NF-κB and MCP-1 mRNA were obviously reduced (P < 0.05); the protein expression levels of TWEAK, NF-κB and MCP-1 mRNA were obviously reduced (P < 0.05) in the high-, middle-, low-dose nano-realgar group. It was concluded that nano-realgar intervened the TWEAK-NF-κB signal pathway through downregulating MCP-1 expression among MRL/lpr mice, in order to reduce the levels of ANA, ds-DNA antibody, IgG and IgM for relieving autoimmune damages in the treatment of SLE (LN).

ABSTRACT

The mechanical properties of tumor cells adhering to extracellular matrix (ECM) are closely related with their invasion and metastesis. In this study we investigated the adhesive mechanical properties between hepatocellular carcinoma cells(HCC) and the collagen I coated surfaces from the viewpoint of cell cycle by coupling cellular biology and cellular mechanics, using micropipette aspiration and cell synchronization technique. The results showed that the synchronous G1 and S phase HCC cells were achieved by use of thymine-2-desoryriboside, colchicines sequential blockage method and double thymine-2-desoryriboside blockage method, and that the synchronous rates of G1 and S phase HCC amounted to 74.09% and 90.39% respectively. Within the ranges of dosing and timing in this study, the adhesion of HCC cells to collagen I displayed dose dependent and time dependent patterns. S phase cells had small force of adhesion to collagen I as compared with G1 phase and controlled cells(P<0.001), which suggested that G1 phase HCC may play an important role in the step of invading interstitial connective tissue in the metastasis pathway of HCC through blood circulation. These are of significance to unveiling the mechanism of HCC metastasis.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To observe the physiological and biochemical effects of intermittent fasting combined with hunger-resistant food on mice, and to evaluate the safety and beneficial effects of this regimen. METHODS: One hundred and forty-four adult ICR mice were divided into 4 groups: standard feed AL group (ad libitum intake of standard feed), hunger-resistant food AL group (ad libitum intake of hunger-resistant food), standard feed IF group (feeding standard feed and fasting on alternate days), and hunger-resistant food IF group (feeding hunger-resistant food and fasting on alternate days). The experiment lasted for 4-8 weeks and all mice drank water freely. The quality of life, body weight, fasting blood glucose, serum lipid, blood routine test, liver and kidney functions as well as the viscera indexes were examined. RESULTS: Compared to the standard feed AL group, the caloric taking and the increment of body-weight were reduced (P<0.01), and the viscera indexes of the liver and kidney were elevated (P<0.05) in the hunger-resistant food AL group and the hunger-resistant food IF group, the values of fasting blood glucose were reduced in standard feed IF group and hunger-resistant food IF group (P<0.01), the value of triglycerides was reduced in hunger-resistant food IF group (P<0.05), while the quality of life, blood routine test as well as the liver and kidney functions were not obviously affected in the hunger-resistant food AL group, standard feed IF group and hunger-resistant food IF group. CONCLUSION: The regimen of intermittent fasting combined with hunger-resistant food is safe and beneficial to metabolic regulation, such as controlling body-weight and adjusting blood glucose and serum lipid. It is expected that development of this regimen will be helpful to the control of obesity and diabetes, etc.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of compound immunotherapy of tumor-derived heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) on tumor-bearing mice, and to provide reference for translating this strategy to human cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Cell culture, techniques for protein extraction and purification, SDS-PAGE, Western blot and capillary electrophoresis for HSP70 detection and purity analysis, and animal experiments were used. Mice were treated with HSP70 5 or 10 microg and IL-2 50 kU, 100 kU or 2 kU (maintaining dosage) at previously designated intervals.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Both the mono-administration of either HSP70 or IL-2 and the compound immunotherapy of HSP70 and IL-2 obviously inhibited the growth of the implanted tumor and prolonged the life span of the mice to different extents. However, long periods of tumor-free survival (over 90 days) were demonstrated only in HSP70 10 micro g group, HSP70 10 microg-IL-2 50 kU group, and HSP70 10 microg-IL-2 100 kU group (40%, 40%, 60% respectively). On the other hand, none of the mice in the rest groups achieved long-term survival. Statistical significance was apparent in comparison with the groups without long period survival (P < 0.025 - 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Our research revealed that tumor-derived HSP70 immunotherapy was much more effective than IL-2 alone. And in compound immunotherapy, HSP70 was the main factor in delaying or eradicating the tumors. The proper combination of HSP70 and IL-2 (10 microg HSP70 and 100 kU IL-2 in this experimental mouse model) clearly enhanced the immunotherapy efficacy which indicated that the specific immunotherapy as a main part of tumor immunotherapy assisted by cytokine immunotherapy would be a promising strategy in cancer treatment.</p>
