RESUMEN
@#Objective To compare and analyze neutralizing antibody titer and specific IgG concentration in the sera immunized with F-genotype mumps attenuated live vaccine,so as to evaluate the possibility of using them as mutual verification indexes.Methods A total of 194 serum samples were randomly selected,including 98 in vaccine group inoculated with F-genotype mumps attenuated live vaccine(49 before immunization and 49 after immunization)and 96 in placebo group(48 before immunization and 48 after immunization),which were detected for the concentration of mumps virus specific IgG and the titer of neutralizing antibody by ELISA and neutralization test respectively,and the detection results were compared.With neutralizing antibody titer as ordinate and IgG concentration as abscissa,the scatter plot was drawn,and the correlation between them was analyzed by logistic regression.With neutralizing antibody titer as standard,the specific IgG concentration of each group was analyzed by ROC curve,which was evaluated to judge the reliability of neutralizing antibody positive conversion.Results There was no significant difference in the concentration of specific IgG(t =-0.977,P > 0.05)and the titer of neutralizing antibody(Z =-1.405,P > 0.05)in the serum of the placebo group before and after immunization.However,in the vaccine group,the concentration of specific IgG(t =-9.959,P < 0.001)and the titer of neutralizing antibody(Z =-5.696,P < 0.001)in the serum after immunization were both significantly higher than those before immunization;The positive conversion rates of specific IgG before and after immunization in the placebo group and before immunization in the vaccine group were significantly higher than those of neutralizing antibody(χ2= 27.927,29.777 and 17.563respectively,each P < 0.001),while no significant difference was observed between the positive conversion rates of the two after immunization in the vaccine group(χ2= 27.927,29.777 and 17.563respectively,each P < 0.001),while no significant difference was observed between the positive conversion rates of the two after immunization in the vaccine group(χ2= 2.346,P > 0.05).There was a significant correlation between specific IgG concentration and neutralizing antibody titer in each group(r = 0.321 0 ～ 0.620 1,each P < 0.05).After immunization,the area under ROC curve was the largest(0.961),and the specificity(1.00)and sensitivity(0.93)were higher in the vaccine group.Conclusion The neutralizing antibody titer and specific IgG concentration in the serum immunized with mumps attenuated live vaccine(F-genotype)showed a good correlation,which might be used as mutual verification indicators.
RESUMEN
Objective: To investigate hypertriglyceridemia and hepatomegaly caused by Schisandrae Sphenantherae Fructus (FSS) and Schisandra chinensis Fructus (FSC) oils in mice. Methods: Mice were orally administered a single dose of Schisandrae Fructus oils. Serum and hepatic triglyceride (TG), triglyceride transfer protein (TTP), apolipoprotein B48 (Apo B48), very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), alanine aminotransfease (ALT) and liver index were measured at 6-120 h post-dosing. Results: FSS and FSC oil caused time and dose-dependent increases in serum and hepatic TG levels, with maximum increases in the liver (by 297% and 340%) at 12 h post-dosing and serum (244% and 439%) at 24-h post-dosing, respectively. Schisandrae Fructus oil treatments also elevated the levels of serum TTP by 51% and 63%, Apo B48 by 152% and 425%, and VLDL by 67% and 38% in mice, respectively. FSS and FSC oil treatments also increased liver mass by 53% and 55% and HGF by 106% and 174%, but lowered serum ALT activity by 38% and 22%, respectively. Fenofibrate pre/ co-treatment attenuated the FSS and FSC oil-induced elevation in serum TG levels by 41% and 49% at 48 h post-dosing, respectively, but increased hepatic TG contents (by 38% and 33%, respectively) at 12 h post-dosing. Conclusions: Our findings provide evidence to support the establishment of a novel mouse model of hypertriglyceridemia by oral administration of FSS oil (mainly increasing endogenous TG) and FSC oil (mainly elevating exogenous TG).

RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the changes of bone mineral density (BMD) and serum bone turnover factor in newly diagnosed systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) patients.@*METHODS@#Eighty newly diagnosed SLE patients and 80 age and gender matched healthy controls were enrolled. None of the SLE patients had ever received glucocorticoid, immunosuppressive agents or vitamin D. BMD was measured at radius,lumbar spine and hip by dual X ray absorptiometry (DXA). Bone turnover markers including serum levels of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP5b),bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 (25-OH-VD3) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Logistic regression was employed to analyze the risk factors associated with decreased BMD.@*RESULTS@#Mean age of the SLE patients was (32.8±12.4) years, and 85% were female, none of whom were post-menopausal. BMD was significantly reduced in all the measured sites, compared with the healthy controls. Sixteen (20%) of the patients were osteopenic in at least one site measured locations. The serum levels of 25-OH-VD3 were markedly reduced in the newly diagnosed SLE patients than those of the normal controls [(46.1+12.3) nmol/L vs. (25.4+11.2) nmol/L, P<0.001)]. The serum levels of 25-OH-VD3 in the SLE patients with nephritis were much lower than those without nephritis (P=0.04). A significant negative correlation was demonstrated between the serum concentration of 25-OH-VD3 and the disease activity scores as measured by SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI) (r=-0.3,P=0.001). The serum TRAP5b concentration was positively correlated with SLEDAI (r=0.435,P=0.003). Age (P=0.058) and SLEDAI (P=0.085) were probably associated with decreased BMD in Logistic regression analysis.@*CONCLUSION@#The study showed reduced BMD in untreated SLE patients. The role of chronic inflammation was of probable importance in bone metabolism.

@#[Abstract] Objective: To establish a method for in vitro isolation and culture of T lymphocytes from peripheral blood of cynomolgus monkeys that induced by human CD3 antibody based on the foundation of protein homology of CD3 from human, cynomolgus monkey and porcine. Methods: The amino acid sequences of human, cynomolgus monkeys and porcine CD3 proteins were obtained from NCBI, and the sequence, homology and phylogenetic tree were analyzed by DNAMAN software. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of CD3 protein on T cell membranes from the three species. PBMCs of healthy cynomolgus were isolated and divided into three groups: group A was stimulated with anti-human CD3Ab alone, group B was stimulated with IL-2 alone, and group C was costimulated with human CD3Ab and IL-2. Cell morphology and growth status were observed under inverted microscope and the cell growth curve was plotted. Cell viability was detected by trypan blue staining and the expressions of CD3, CD4 and CD8 on T cell surface were detected by flow cytometry. Results: The homology of the amino acid sequence of human CD3 protein to cynomolgus monkey and porcine were 86.9% and 65.6% respectively. The expression levels of CD3 protein on cynomolgus and porcine T cell membrane were 79% and 17% contrast to human, respectively. Cells of group A did not proliferate. Proliferation, viability and CD3 expression [(93.8±3.6)% vs (70.3±4.7)%, P<0.01] in T cells of group C were significantly higher than those in group B. Growth curve of T cells in group C showed an S-shape, which is consistent with Logistic growth curve. T cells in group C exhibited high purity and expressed high level CD3; moreover, the CD8+T cell took a high proportion. Conclusion: The membrane of T lymphocytes from peripheral blood of cynomolgus can express CD3 protein that highly homological to human. Co-stimulation of human CD3Ab, IL-2 and 1% PHAcan induce the proliferation and differentiation of T lymphocytes of cynomolgus, and obtain T lymphocytes with good growth status, high proliferation ability and high purity.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of ipratropi um bromide and atropine on airway mucin hypersecretion in the chronic bronchiti s model of rats. Methods The model was established by intratrac heal instillation of small dose of lipopolysaccaride (200 μg) ipratropium bromi de and atropine were administrated 3-21 d after the model was established. Patho logical changes, mucin in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and tracheal ring culture medium were examined before and after the adnsinistration of iprat ropium bromide and atropine. Results Characteristic pathologica l manifestions of chronic brochitis were found after instillation of LPS. Sig nificant decrease in the number of tracheal epithelia goblet cells, secretion of mucin were observed in ipratropium bromide and atropine treated rats. The eff ect of inhibiting the secretion of mucin of ipratropium bromide was higher than atropine. Conclusion It suggests that muscarinic acetylcholine receptor plays an important role in airway mucin hypersecretion in chronic bro nchitis model of rat. Ipratropium bromide exhibit a stronger inhibition effect on mucin hypersecretion than atropine, moreover no inhibition effect on mucocil iary clearance which was observed in atropine.
