RESUMO
Objective To investigate the expression of PD‐L1 in the CD4+CD25hiCD127low/‐ Treg cells in the peripheral blood of colon cancer and the correlation with clinical stage .Methods The expression of PD‐L1 on CD4+CD25hiCD127low/‐Treg cells from 47 samples of the peripheral blood of colon cancer was analyzed by flow cytometry .Results Compared with those from healthy do‐nor ,the proportion of CD4+CD25hiCD127low/‐Treg cells and expression of PD‐L1 on these cells increased significantly (P<0 .01) . Further analysis showed that expression of PD‐L1 increased with the increase of clinical stage of colon cancer (P<0 .01) ,and de‐creased significantly after postoperation (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Increase of proportion of CD4+CD25hiCD127low/‐Treg cells and the expression of PD‐L1 may enhance the suppression of antitumor immunity ,and thereby promote tumor immunoescape .
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of propofol on the endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis during focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Eighty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 240-280 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =20 each):shame operation group (group S) ; focal cerebral I/R group (group FCIR); propofol pretreatment group (group P); intralipid pretreatment group (group Ⅰ).Focal cerebral I/R was induced by 4 h middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by reperfusion.Propofol was infused at a rate of 12 mg· kg-1 · h-1 starting from 30 min before ischemia until 15 min of ischemia in group P,while intralipid was given instead of propofol in group I.Neurological deficit scores (NDSs) were measured at 6 h of reperfusion in 10 rats chosen from each group and the rats were then sacrificed.Their left brains were removed for determination of brain water content.The left 10 rats were sacrificed and their brains were immediately removed for determination of the expression of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP),Bcl-2,and activated caspase-3 in the left hippocampi by Western blot.Results Compared with group S,NDSs and brain water content were significantly increased,the expression of CHOP and activated caspase-3 was up-regulated,and the expression of Bcl-2 was down-regulated in group FCIR,NDSs was increased in group P (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group FCIR,NDSs and brain water content were significantly decreased,the expression of CHOP and activated caspase-3 was down-regulated,and the expression of Bcl-2 was up-regulated in group P,and no significant change was found in each parameter in group Ⅰ (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Propofol can reduce focal cerebral I/R injury through inhibition of the endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis in rats.
