Advances in immunotherapy of extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma / 中华耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL) is a relatively rare group of highly aggressive non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma (NHL). The disease has rapid clinical progress, high degree of malignancy and poor prognosis. Traditional chemoradiotherapy regimens have not shown good efficacy. In recent years, the immunotherapy of tumors has developed rapidly. At present, it has shown strong therapeutic activity in the treatment of various solid tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma and kidney cancer. Multiple tumor immunotherapy drugs have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical use. This article reviews recent novel immunotherapeutic regimens of ENKTCL, hoping to change the treatment modality of this malignant disease.

Clinical study on the treatment of allergic rhinitis by rhinitis desensitization prescription with nebulization suction / 中国基层医药

Objective To observe the clinical effect of rhinitis desensitization prescription with nebulization suction in the treatment of allergic rhinitis.Methods 100 patients of allergic rhinitis were randomly divided into control group(50 cases)and study group(50 cases).The control group was given conventional treatment,study group on the basis of conventional therapy was given rhinitis desensitization atomization inhalation.The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.Results After 1 course,three course,1 month of treatment,the total effective rates of the study group were 90%,92%,96%,which of the control group were 86%,88%,and 90% respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (χ2 =3.87,4.10,4.30,all P <0.05).Conclusion Rhinitis desensitization atomization inhalation in the treatment of allergic rhinitis has good curative effect,and it has high clinical application value.

Prokaryotic expression and activity analysis of 5′-methylthioadenosine nucleosidase in Mycobacterium tuberculosis / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective To clone and express of Rv0091 encoding protein in Mycobacterium tuberculosis,identify and characterize of the enzyme activities.Methods Construct the Rv0091 prokaryotic expression plasmid,the vector was transformed into E.coli strain BL21trxB.After induced by IPTG,recombinant protein was purified by Ni2+-NTA chromatography and analyzed for purity by SDS-PAGE gels stained with Coomassie Blue.Immunological activity was identified by Western blot.The recombinant protein molecular weight was identified by Mass spectrometry.The enzyme-coupled assay detectes enzyme activity.Results The expression plasmid pET32a-Rv0091 was constructed and expressed in E.coli.BL21trxB,and the optimum expression system was conformed.The purity of the recombinant protein was more than 95％.Western blot analysis confirmed that recombinant protein was one of Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins.Mass spectrometry identified the relative molecular weight and theoretical molecular weight was basically the same.Enzyme assay showed the recombinant protein able to catalyze the substrate MTA.Enzymatic properties showed that the optimal buffer for the phosphate and Hepes buffer,the poor thermal stability of the enzyme,the optimal temperature of 37℃,optimal pH10-12,when the pH ≤7,the protein denaturation and loss of some vitality.Conclusion The recombinant protein methylthioadenosine nucleosidase(MTAN) was obtained and enzyme activity was detected and plays a key role in the metabolism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Identification of Shiga-like toxin Escherichia coli isolated from children with diarrhea by polymerase chain reaction / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the etiology of Shiga like toxin producing Escherichia coli (SLTEC) in children with diarrhea.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We designed and synthesized 3 pairs of primers located in the SLT1, SLT2, and eaeA genes of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), while the virulent genes SLT1, SLT2, and eaeA from E.coli species were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>One strain of EHEC with SLT1, SLT2, and eaeA in 29 reference strains of diarrhea-causing E.coli (DCEC) and 10 strains of other enterobacteria detected by PCR had positive reactions, while all other DCEC and enterobacteria were negative. Of 474 strains of E. coli isolated from 1032 children with diarrhea and detected by PCR, 20 strains of SLT1 producing E. coli (4.2%) positive, and 7 strains of SLT2 producing E. coli (1.5%) positive; while of 74 strains of entero-SLTs-producing and invasive Escherichia coli (ESIEC), 15 strains of SLT1 (20.3%) and 5 strains of SLT2 (6.8%) were positive.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Shiga-like toxin E. coli has been identified as a major etiologic agent of children with diarrhea in Taiyuan, China.</p>

The relationship of cervical cancer with pathogen infectious, cytokine and Se / 中华实验和临床病毒学杂志

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>To identify the relationship of cervical cancer with pathogen infectious, cytokine and Se.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>On the one hand regarded tissues of the carcinoma of the uterine cervix with 195 cases as the experimental group and ordinary cervical tissues with 75 cases as the control group. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect them. On the other hand applied ELISA to detect cytokine IL-2R, TNF and fluorescent luminosity technique to detect element Se in the serums.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In the experimental group those infected pathogen were 166 cases (85.1%), In all of pathogen HPV 16,18,35 type were 60 cases (30.8%), HSV 2 were 60 cases (30.8%), While those ordinary tissues infected pathogen were 15 cases (20 0%),in the contrast group. HPV 16,18,35 type and HSV 2 mere 4.0% and 6.7% respectively,(P<0.001). In the serums of effective 62 experimental objects IL-2R (x=356.44 U/ml) and TNF (x=373.48 pg/ml) were much high than them in the serums of effective 36 contrast objects (P<0.001). But Se (x=0.058 mg/ml) was lower than it in the serums of contrast objects (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The occurrence of carcinoma of the uterine cervix is closely connected with infection of HPV 16,18,35 and HSV2, high level of cellular factors IL-2R, TNF and low level of element Se.</p>

Study on the gastic leptin and helicobacter pylori associated gastritis / 中华检验医学杂志

Objective To explore the pathophysiological role of gastric leptin in helicobacter associated gastritis.Methods Patients undergoing gastroscopy were involved in the study.Helicobacter pylori infection was diagnosed by use of Hp-ureA-PCR,~(14)C urea breath test and rapid urease-nessler′s test. The level of leptin in local gastric mucosa and plasma were detected by ELISA. The level of IL-1? and IL-1ra in local gastric mucosa were detected by RIA.Results Total of 31 H pylori positive and 30 H pylori negative patients with chronic gastritis were founded. The level of Leptin and IL-1ra in the gastric mucosa in H pylori positive patients were significantly increased as compared with that in H pylori negative group (P 0.05).Gastric leptin closely related to IL-1? in H pylori positive group(r= -0.78,P
