Résumé
Objective To investigate the role of CXC chemokine ligand 5 (CXCL5) in the patho-genesis of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods A mouse model of IBD was established by giving 3% DSS in drinking water. Influences of CXCL5 knockout on mouse body weight, clinical symptoms, survival rate, pathological injury and the secretion of inflammatory cyto-kines were analyzed. Results CXCL5 levels in serum of mice with DSS-induced IBD were significantly higher than those of the normal control group. DSS-induced weight gain, death, pathological damages and inflammatory cytokine secretion were alleviated in mice after knocking out CXCL5. Conclusion CXCL5 might promote the secretion of inflammatory cytokines in mice with DSS-induced acute colitis and aggravate pathological damages,suggesting that CXCL5 might be a potentially important candidate target for the treat-ment of IBD.
Résumé
Objective To investigate the epidemic patterns and the characteristics of influenza in Chi-na through a Meta-analysis based on the studies published in domestic literatures.Methods Related articles published during 2005 to 2012 were screened out from domestic databases and analyzed through a Meta-analysis with Review Manager 5.0 software.Results Twenty-two articles covering 957 901 patients with influenza-like-illness (ILI) and 148 233 pathogen samples were screened out according to the inclusion criteria.No significant difference with the ILI diagnosis rate was found between subjects at age 0-4 years and those at age 15-59 years. Higher ILI diagnosis rates were observed in those two groups as compared with subjects elder than 60 years old. Most of the pathogen samples were carried by subjects aged 25-59 years.More influenza virus strains were isola-ted in 2009 as compared with those of the seven other years (OR=2.25, 95%CI=1.27-3.70).There was sta-tistical difference between the numbers of influenza A H1N1 and seasonal influenza A strains (OR=2.25, 95%CI=1.30-3.91) .Significant difference was also observed between the numbers of influenza A and influenza B strains (OR=4.05, 95%CI=2.53-6.47).Conclusion There was significant difference with the diagnosis rate between subjects aged 0-4 years and those aged≥60 years.More attention should be paid to people at high risk of infection (0-4 years old and≥60 years old) and those at 25-29 years with high mobility and social inter-course for the timely prevention and control of pandemic influenza.The detection rate of influenza virus strains was increased during the outbreak of novel influenza A H1N1 infection in 2009.After that outbreak, the detec-tion rate of novel influenza A H1N1 strains was 2.25 times the rate of seasonal influenza strains.The detection rate of influenza A was 4.05 times the rate of influenza B virus strains.Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the surveillance for influenza A virus and other epidemic influenza virus strains.
