Methods： Kunming male mice were randomly divided into three groups： blank group, PYM group （P group）, low dose radiation ＋ PYM group （P ＋ L group）. Mice of P ＋ L group were given whole body low dose radiation 75 mGY, dose rate were 12.5 mGY/min. After 6 h, mice in both P ＋ L group and P group were given inbreathe of atomization of PYM, concentration was 2 mg/mL. Mice were sacrificed after the dl, d7, d14, d21 and d28, IL-6 were detected in alveolar irrigating solution. The tissue samples of mice lung were fixed in 10% formalin, TNF-α and TGF-β were analyzed by immuno- histochemistry. Results： Compared with P group, IL-6 in low dose radiation ＋ PYM group were lower, near to blank group, the difference had notable statistical significance on the dl and the d7, while on the d14, d21, d28, the difference had not statisti- cal significance. It suggested that low dose radiation could reduce the resection of IL-6 at the begin of lung injure induced by low dose radiation. The expression of TGF-β and TNF-α in P ＋ L group were lower than that in P group, but the difference in the two groups had statistical significance by gray analysis P 〈 0.05. Conclusion： In the early stage of lung injure caused by PYM in mice, low dose radiation of 75 mGY can reduce the secretion of IL-6, decrease the production of TGF-β and TNF-α.展开更多

Methods： to determine the INF-γ and TNF contents in the blood serum of lung cancer patients by double antibody sandwich immunoenzymatic method （ELISA）; to measure the INF-γ and TNF contents of 30 lung cancer patients in the acupuncture anesthesia group and 30 lung cancer patients in general anesthesia group before the operation and at the 8th days, the 12th day after the operation respectively and make comparison between the two groups. Results. The pre-operation INF-γ contents of the two groups showed no significant difference （P〉 0.05）; the post operation INF-γ contents of the two groups showed significant difference at 8th day and 12th day after the operation （P〈 0.05）; the acupuncture anesthesia group was superior to the general anesthesia group; the self-comparison of the anesthesia group showed significant difference at the 12th day and 8th day after the operation （P〈 0.05）; the pre-operation TNF contents of the two groups showed no significant difference （P〉 0.05） and the post-operation TNF contents of the two groups showed significant difference at the 8th day and 12th day after the operation （P〈 0.05）. Conclusion：Acupuncture can increase the serum INF-γ and TNF contents of lung cancer patients and therefore regulate the immunity of the patients.展开更多
