ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the protective effects and mechanism of quercetin against the oxidative damage to renal cell.Methods Using the model of renal cell lines HK-2,hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 )induced oxidative damage on renal cells.On the basis of the effects of quercetin on HK-2 cells viability observed by CCK8,the alteration of cell signaling pathway after treating with quercetin was detected by immunoblotting.The glutathione (GSH)in the cell was also detected. Results It was found that H2 O2 can induce the oxidative damage in HK2 cells.Compared to control group,the cell viability decreased to 34. 9%.While pretreated with quercetin (10 μM~40 μM),the viability was between 40% and 70%.Quercetin decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS)to 1 10%-130% in HK2 cells which were induced by H2 O2 to 153%.Additionally,quercetin increased the content of anti-oxidant enzyme such as GPX1,SOD2 and GSH.Moreover, quercetin can promote the degradation of p-AMPK and LC3 and decrease p-mTOR,as well as inhibit the activation of BAX and caspase 3.Conclusion Quercetin has a protective effect on renal cell induced by oxidative damage,and the mechanism may be related to antioxidant effects and promoting autophagy.

ABSTRACT

The microchimerism is a status of the microcell or DNA of an individual in another one with genetic differences. Taking an overall view about the discovery and research of the microchimerism, it was found that although the study of the microchimerism emphasizes the formation, origin, distribution, type, relationship to disease and several other aspects, the objects of the study are always the microchimerism that obtained naturally. As it is known to all, the microchimerism can also be produced in some clinical treatment, such as in the transplant and transfusion, but compared with the microchimerism gained naturally, obviously, the study for the iatrogenic microchimerism formed in the treatment is not elaborate enough. The curative effect of micro transplantation, a new technique for leukemia treatment, is obvious, but its mechanism is unclear, whether that is related to microchimerism still needs further research. This review summarizes the study history and perspective of the microchimerism so as to provide some ideas for studying the action mechanism of microchimerism in micro transplantation.

ABSTRACT

This study was purposed to establish and identify a H-2 completely mismatched microtransplantation model of leukemia mouse. The recipients were female BALB/c mice, while donors were male C57BL/6J mice. Recipients were inoculated intravenously with 1×10(6) of WEHI-3 cells, a cell line of myelomonocytic leukemia. Donors received 100 µg/kg G-CSF mobilization through hypodermic injection, every 12 hours, and it last 5 days. Chemotherapy regimens was MA (mitoxantrone+cytarabine), and it last 4 days. Recipients were given chemotherapy conditioning without GVHD prophylaxis after inoculation of leukemic cells for 2 days, and within 8 hours after last chemotherapy received donor mobilized spleen mononuclear cells (sMNC). The number of sMNC was (3, 6, 12) ×10(7), respectively. The early death rate, recovery level of WBC in peripheral blood and leukemia load were compared between chemotherapy and microtransplantation groups. The donor chimerism was detected by RT-PCR. From the clinical manifestation and pathological features, the GVHD in recipients was evaluated. The results showed that the early mortality in chemotherapy group was 25%, meanwhile those in the (3, 6, 12)×10(7) groups were 16.67%, 8.33%, 8.33%, respectively. The(3, 6)×10(7) groups has a stronger hematopoietic recovery capability than that in chemotherapy and 12×10(7) groups (P < 0.05) . There were more leukemic cells in chemotherapy mice than that in microtransplantation mice (P < 0.01) , and (12, 6)×10(7) groups had lower leukemia load than that in 3×10(7) group (P < 0.05) . No signs of GVHD were observed in microtransplantation mice. The donor microchimerism could be discovered at eraly 2 weeks after donor cell transfusion. It is concluded that a H-2 completely mismatched microtransplantation model of leukemia mouse has been successfully established, and it will provide a experimental base for studying microtransplantation in clinic.

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to investigate the expression level of NOV and BNIP3 mRNA in mice myelomonocytic leukemia (AML-M(4)) and its significance. The mice were inoculated intravenously with myelomonocytic leukemia cells of WEHI-3, and divided randomly into chemotherapy group and control (untreated) group. Bone marrow samples were then collected from both groups at different times. The NOV and BNIP3 mRNA expression were detected by TaqMan quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and the relationship between these expression levels and clinical significance in leukemia incidence and progression were analyzed with β-actin as the housekeeping gene. The results showed that the mean values of NOV and BNIP3 increased gradually from 2 weeks after inoculation and achieved highest level at death in control group. Expression level of NOV increased from 1.85E-05 before inoculation to 3.57E-02 at death (p < 0.05), and BNIP3 from 3.44E-03 to 3.48E-02. While 2 gene expression in the chemotherapy group decreased quickly to 2.51E-05 and 1.58E-03 (p < 0.05) respectively after chemotherapy, which were close to the level before inoculation (p > 0.05). The 2 gene expressions again rose at relapse, and difference of expression level between 2 group at death were no statistically significant (p > 0.05). It is concluded that the expression of NOV and BNIP3 in leukemia AML-M(4) is significantly higher than that in normal controls, of which high level expression is an important factor in the development of leukemia. Close relation between the therapeutic effect and expression level of these two genes suggests the great value in prognostic evaluation and MRD detection.

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF) on murine thymocyte emigration and cell cycle alteration after a sublethal dose of gamma-irradiation. Female BALB/c mice were given 6.0 Gy γ-ray total body irradiation and then randomly divided into G-CSF and control groups. Mice in the G-CSF group were injected recombinant human G-CSF 100 µg/(kg·d) subcutaneously once daily for 14 consecutive days and mice in the control group were given the same volume of phosphate buffered solution. Thymocyte cycle alteration and the proportion of apoptosis cells were detected by flow cytometry within 72 hours after irradiation. Real-time PCR was used for detection and quantitation of murine T cell receptor rearrangement excision circles (sjTREC) of the thymic cells at 30 and 60 day after the irradiation. The results showed that at 6 hour after irradiation G-CSF could significantly increase the thymic cells in G(0)/G(1) phase, G-CSF vs control: (82.0 ± 5.0)% vs (75.9 ± 2.8)% (p < 0.05), and decrease the thymic cells in S phase, G-CSF vs control: (10.2 ± 4.8)% vs (15.7 ± 2.3)% (p < 0.05), but G-CSF seemed have no evident effects on the percentage of thymic cells in G(2)/M phase. G-CSF could also protect thymocytes from apoptosis at 6 hour and 12 hour after irradiation the percentages of apoptosis cells in G-CSF group were (11.5 ± 2.4)% and (15.5 ± 3.3)%, respectively, which were significantly lower than that of the control group (16.5 ± 2.2)% and (22.6 ± 0.7)%, respectively (p < 0.05). The sjTREC copy amount was conspicuously higher in G-CSF group than that in the control at 30 day after irradiation (p < 0.01), but the preponderance disappeared 60 days later. It is concluded that G-CSF has a positive effect on the thymic cell cycle alteration to protect thymocytes from apoptosis and enhance the recent thymocyte emigration, which may contribute to the central immune reconstitution after irradiation.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship between WT1-induced T-cell subsets and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (NST).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Peripheral blood mononucleated cells (PBMCs) from 19 patients who expressed WT1 and developed GVHD after NST were simulated by WT1126-134 peptide in vitro, and proportions of WT1-induced-T-cell subsets (Tc1, Tc2, Th1, Th2 cells) before and after transplant were detected by intracellular cytokine staining (ICCS) assay. WT1-specific CD8(+) CTLs of 14 patients with HLA-A*0201 were detected by HLA-A*0201/WT1 pentamer.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) 17 of 19 patients developed GVHD, among whom proportions of Tc1 and Th1 cells, achieved peak value in 16 patients at occurrence of GVHD (P = 0.039); (2) The peak proportions of Tc1 and Th1 cells in patients with aGVHD above grade II were higher than those with grade I, but being no statistical difference (P = 0.900 and P = 0.140, respectively); (3) The peak proportion of Th1 cells (P = 0.004), but not Tc1 cells (P = 0.060) in patients with extensive cGVHD was significantly higher than that in patients with limited one; (4) Proportions of Tc1, Th1 and WT1(+)CD8(+)CTL in patients without GVHD were similar to those in patients with Grade I aGVHD, but lower than those in aGVHD above grade II.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>GVHD promotes the generation of WT1-induced GVL effect, and the intensity of the latter maybe correlated with the intensity of GVHD, especially cGVHD. Th1 cells play a more important role in the enhancement of WT1-induced GVL effect in extensive cGVHD patient than in limited cGVHD patients.</p>

ABSTRACT

This study was purposed to investigate the value of combination of pentamer and intracellular IFNgamma staining in the qualitative and quantitative detection of circulating antigen-specific T cells. WT1 expressions in 14 HLA-A*0201+ patients and their matched donors were detected by RT-PCR, and circulating WT1 specific T cells were assayed by HLA-A*0201/WT1 pentamer combined with intracellular IFNgamma+ staining. The results showed that the low level of WT1 expression was found only in 2 cases out of 14 donors, but different levels of WT1 expression could be observed in all leukemic patients. The WT1+CD8+ CTL and WT1+IFNgamma+ cells did not detected in all 14 donors, but WT1+CD8+ CTL cells in 2 patients and WT1+IFNgamma+ cells in 3 patients could be detected before transplantation respectively, there was no significant difference between them, while the WT1+CD8+ CTL cells and WT1+IFNgamma+ cells both could be detected in all 14 patients after transplantation, the positive detection rate after transplantation was obviously higher than that before transplantation. The WT1+CD8+ and WT1+ IFNgamma+ cells could be detected within 30 days after transplantation, but the positive detection rate of WT1+IFNgamma+ cells was higher than that of WT1+CD8+ CTL cells (p=0.014). The median peak value of WT1+CD8+ CTL cells was 0.18% in 14 patients, and the median peak value of WT1+IFNgamma+ cells was 0.83% in 14 patients, the later was significantly higher than former. The median peak time of WT1+CD8+ CTL cells was 75 days after transplantation, while the WT1+IFNgamma+ cells was 105 days after transplantation, there was no significant difference between them. It is concluded that pentamer and intracellular IFNgamma staining may effectively detect circulating WT1 specific T cells in leukemic patients, and the combination of these two methods profit to the exact qualitation and quantitation of circulating antigen-specific T cells.

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the level and distribution of antibody F1 against plague in population of Ningxia natural plague foci in 2007 and 2008. Methods Seven hundred and eighteen blood samples were collected in five major cities and counties of natural plague foci, and 475 blood samples were collected in nonplague area as control group. Conventional indirect hemagglutination, colloidal gold test, and enzyme-linked immunoassay were employed to test the antibody. If the result was tested positive by more than two methods used then the result was defined as positive. Antibody titer that did not reach the positive standard was defined as suspected samples. Results A total of 718 serum samples were tested, the results showed that 9 samples were positive (antibody titer was 1:16 - 1:64), the positive rate was 1.25%(9/718), suspected samples was 28, the detection rate was 3.90%(28/718). Four hundred and seventy-five serum samples in the non-plague area were all negative by the three methods. There was a significant difference of antibody F1 positive rate between residents in historical epidemic area and history nonepidemic area(χ2 = 4.44, P< 0.05). There was no statistical significance of the positive rate[1.25%(9/718), 1.25%(9/718),2.51%(18/718)]among the three methods used(χ2 = 1.91, P> 0.05). Conclusion There still exists a certain proportion of Fl antibody positive people in Ningxia natural plague foci, and these people are distributed in areas where several animal plague prevalent in recent years.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the microanatomy of the bridging veins emptying into the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) for preservation of the bridging veins in surgeries through the anterior transcallosal approach. Methods Blue latex was injected into the SSS and internal jugular veins in 20 cadaver heads (40 sides), in which the bridging veins of the frontal zone and central zone were dissociated and their positions relative to the body surface were determined. Such indexes of the lateral veins in each zone as the caliber, the number of bridging veins, and convergence angle were determined. The opposite hemisphere was manipulated in an identical manner to measure the indexes of the sagittal sinus. Results in an area posterior to the frontal region of the SSS, a "safe zone" was identified where no bridging veins drained into the SSS, covering the area 32.6 nun anterior and 7.5 mm posterior to the coronal suture. After complete dissociation of the bridging veins near the longitudinal fissure in the "safe zone", the fissure allowed an opening width of 4.48~10.86 mm. Conclusion Thorough knowledge of the venous anatomy can help avoid the bridging veins in the anterior transcallosal approach. Total dissociation of the sticking segment and arachnoid segment of the bridging veins can broaden the opening width of the longitudinal fissure without increasing the tension of the bridging veins to better preserve the bridging veins during surgery.
