The results showed that high-dosage group(40 mL/kg) of com-pound P. igniarius oral liquid can obviously enhance the ability of carbon clearance of mice; middle-(20 mL/kg) and high-dosage groups can significantly enhance the phagocytic rate and phagocytic index of chicken erythrocyte of mouse macrophage;low-(10 mL/kg), middle- and high-dosage groups can significantly enhance NK cel activity of mice. These showed that compound P. igniarius oral liquid can enhance mononuclear-macrophage and NK cel activity. In conclusion, compound P. igniarius oral liquid’s polysaccharide can enhance immunologic function and significantly im-prove the specific and nonspecific immunologic function.展开更多

The non-...Alveolar macrophages (AM) from BCG activated Wistar rat were irradiated with different doses of Gamma rays in vitro. The effects of radiation on their immunological functions and membrane damage were studied. The non-specific cytotoxicity and specific phagocytosis of AM irradiated with dose of 0, 100, 300 and 500 Gy decreased with the increase in dose. The relative fractions of Lactate Dehydrogenase and Beta-glucuronidase (β-glu) activity in supernatant increased with the increase in dose. There was a correlation between the suppression of immunological functions and the degree of damage of cytoplasmic and lysosomal membranes of AM after irradiation. Na2SeO3, a protective agent of cell membranes, alleviated this effect on the suppressive cytotoxicity indices of irradiated AM.展开更多

Methods:A total of 86 patients with NSCLC who were admitted in our hospital were included in the study and randomized into the observation group and the control group with 43 cases in each group. The patients in the two groups were given routine chemotherapy. On this basis, the patients in the observation group were given DC-CIK cellular immunotherapy. The patients in the two groups were treated for 3 courses. The peripheral blood T lymphocytes and cytokines after treatment in the two groups were compared. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions in the two groups were evaluated.Results:The total effective rate and disease control rate after treatment in the observation group were slightly higher than those in the control group, but the comparison between the two groups was not statistically significant. CD8+ after treatment in the observation group was significantly reduced, while CD3+, CD4+, and CD4+/CD8+ were significantly elevated when compared with before treatment. CD3+ and NK contents, and CD4+/CD8+ after treatment in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. IFN-γ, IL-4, TNF-α levels, and Th1/Th2 after treatment in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while TGF-β level was significantly lower than that in the control group. The occurrence rate of nausea and vomiting, and liver and renal function damage in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, but the median progression free survival (PFS) was significantly longer than that in the control group, while the comparison of median overall survival (OS) between the two groups was not statistically significant, and 2-year survival rate was significantly higher than that in the control group.Conclusions: DC-CIK in combined with chemotherapy can correct the immunologic disorder in patients with advanced NSCLC, and strengthen the anti-tumor effect.展开更多

On a per-patient basis, an experienced radiologist recorded airway abnormalities(bronchiectasis,airway wall thickening, mucus plugging, tree-in-bud, and air-trapping) and parenchymal-interstitial abnormalities(consolidations, ground-glass opacities,linear and/or irregular opacities, nodules, and bullae/cysts) found on HRCT.The chi-square test was performed to compare the prevalence of each abnormality among patients with different subtypes of hPIDs. Overall logistic regression analysis was performed to assess whether HRCT findings predicted obstructive and/or restrictive PFTs results(absent-to-mild vs moderate-tosevere).RESULTS Thirty-eight of the 52 patients with hPIDs showed common variable immunodeficiency disorders(CVID), while the remaining 14 had CVID-like conditions(i.e., 11 had isolated IgG subclass deficiencies and 3 had selective IgA deficiencies). The prevalence of most HRCT abnormalities was not significantly different between CVID and CVID-like patients(P > 0.05), except for linear and/or irregular opacities(prevalence of 31.6% in the CVID group and 0 in the CVID-like group; P = 0.0427). Airway wall thickening was the most frequent HRCT abnormality found in both CVID and CVID-like patients(71% of cases in both groups). The presence of tree-in-bud abnormalities was an independent predictor of moderate-to-severe obstructive defects at PFTs(Odds Ratio, OR, of 18.75, P < 0.05), while the presence of linear and/or irregular opacities was an independent predictor of restrictive defects at PFTs(OR = 13.00; P < 0.05).CONCLUSION CVID and CVID-like patients showed similar HRCT findings. Tree-in-bud and linear and/or irregular opacities predicted higher risks of, respectively,obstructive and restrictive defects at PFTs.展开更多

文摘Objective: To study the influence of laparoscopic radical correction of oophoroma combined with chemotherapy on Tumor related factors and immunologic function levels. Methods:Retrospective analyses the 95 cases of ovarian cancer in our hospital from January 2013 to September 2017, which were divided into the control group and the observation group. The patients in the observation group underwent laparoscopic ovarian cancer radical surgery, the control group underwent open radical resection of ovarian cancer, two patients were combined with TP chemotherapy, the levels of serum MMP-9, HE4, YKL-40, EPO, PRL, TSGF and T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+) in two groups before and after treatment were detected and compared. Results: (1) Before treatment, there was no statistical difference between the levels of serum MMP-9, HE4, YKL-40, EPO, PRL, TSGF in the two groups;After treatment, the levels of serum MMP-9, HE4, YKL-40, EPO, PRL, TSGF in the control group were statistically significant compared with those before treatment in the same group, and the differences were statistically significant between the two groups. (2) Before treatment, there was no statistical difference between the levels of serum T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+) in the two groups;After treatment, the differences of serum CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+ were statistically significant compared with those before treatment in the same group, but the differences were not statistically significant between the two groups. Conclusion: Chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer TP in laparoscopic radical resection after, can not only significantly improve the patient's serum MMP-9, HE4, YKL-40, EPO, PRL, TSGF level. Moreover, compared with the simple operation, this method does not significantly affect the T lymphocyte subsets of the patients, and is worthy of clinical application.
文摘Objective: To observe the effectiveness of highly active antiret-rovirus therapy (HAART) on HIV/AIDS patients. Methods: Using HIV-1 quantitative methods and immu-nological function inspection, we monitored 4 HIV/AIDS pa-tients who were suffering from immunological deficiency andwere treated with HAART Results: The reproduction of HIV in all 4 patients was effi-ciently controlled at the 4th week of the treatment. The averageviral load decreased by 1.99 Log/ml (0.73-2.46 Log/ml). Thenumber of CD^+_4 and CD^+_8 showed a steady continuous increase4 to 12 weeks after the treatment, with an increase of 67.2%and 103.0% respectively. Correlative study among differentvariables after the treatment revealed that positive correlationexisted between the number of CD^+_4 and CD^+_3 as well as CD^+_8,while negative correlation existed between the number of CD^+_4and plasma viral load. Conclusion: HIV-1 quantitative method (plasma viral load)and the number of CD^+_4 in peripheral blood can be used asimportant reference indicators in evaluating HAART.
文摘Alveolar macrophages (AM) from BCG activated Wistar rat were irradiated with different doses of Gamma rays in vitro. The effects of radiation on their immunological functions and membrane damage were studied. The non-specific cytotoxicity and specific phagocytosis of AM irradiated with dose of 0, 100, 300 and 500 Gy decreased with the increase in dose. The relative fractions of Lactate Dehydrogenase and Beta-glucuronidase (β-glu) activity in supernatant increased with the increase in dose. There was a correlation between the suppression of immunological functions and the degree of damage of cytoplasmic and lysosomal membranes of AM after irradiation. Na2SeO3, a protective agent of cell membranes, alleviated this effect on the suppressive cytotoxicity indices of irradiated AM.
文摘Objective:To explore the effect of DC-CIK in combined with chemotherapy on the immunological function in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:A total of 86 patients with NSCLC who were admitted in our hospital were included in the study and randomized into the observation group and the control group with 43 cases in each group. The patients in the two groups were given routine chemotherapy. On this basis, the patients in the observation group were given DC-CIK cellular immunotherapy. The patients in the two groups were treated for 3 courses. The peripheral blood T lymphocytes and cytokines after treatment in the two groups were compared. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions in the two groups were evaluated.Results:The total effective rate and disease control rate after treatment in the observation group were slightly higher than those in the control group, but the comparison between the two groups was not statistically significant. CD8+ after treatment in the observation group was significantly reduced, while CD3+, CD4+, and CD4+/CD8+ were significantly elevated when compared with before treatment. CD3+ and NK contents, and CD4+/CD8+ after treatment in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. IFN-γ, IL-4, TNF-α levels, and Th1/Th2 after treatment in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while TGF-β level was significantly lower than that in the control group. The occurrence rate of nausea and vomiting, and liver and renal function damage in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, but the median progression free survival (PFS) was significantly longer than that in the control group, while the comparison of median overall survival (OS) between the two groups was not statistically significant, and 2-year survival rate was significantly higher than that in the control group.Conclusions: DC-CIK in combined with chemotherapy can correct the immunologic disorder in patients with advanced NSCLC, and strengthen the anti-tumor effect.

文摘AIM To compare high-resolution computed tomography(HRCT) findings between humoral primary immunodeficiencies(hPIDs) subtypes; to correlate these findings to pulmonary function tests(PFTs).METHODS We retrospectively identified 52 consecutive adult patients with hPIDs who underwent 64-row HRCT and PFTs at the time of diagnosis. On a per-patient basis, an experienced radiologist recorded airway abnormalities(bronchiectasis,airway wall thickening, mucus plugging, tree-in-bud, and air-trapping) and parenchymal-interstitial abnormalities(consolidations, ground-glass opacities,linear and/or irregular opacities, nodules, and bullae/cysts) found on HRCT.The chi-square test was performed to compare the prevalence of each abnormality among patients with different subtypes of hPIDs. Overall logistic regression analysis was performed to assess whether HRCT findings predicted obstructive and/or restrictive PFTs results(absent-to-mild vs moderate-tosevere).RESULTS Thirty-eight of the 52 patients with hPIDs showed common variable immunodeficiency disorders(CVID), while the remaining 14 had CVID-like conditions(i.e., 11 had isolated IgG subclass deficiencies and 3 had selective IgA deficiencies). The prevalence of most HRCT abnormalities was not significantly different between CVID and CVID-like patients(P > 0.05), except for linear and/or irregular opacities(prevalence of 31.6% in the CVID group and 0 in the CVID-like group; P = 0.0427). Airway wall thickening was the most frequent HRCT abnormality found in both CVID and CVID-like patients(71% of cases in both groups). The presence of tree-in-bud abnormalities was an independent predictor of moderate-to-severe obstructive defects at PFTs(Odds Ratio, OR, of 18.75, P < 0.05), while the presence of linear and/or irregular opacities was an independent predictor of restrictive defects at PFTs(OR = 13.00; P < 0.05).CONCLUSION CVID and CVID-like patients showed similar HRCT findings. Tree-in-bud and linear and/or irregular opacities predicted higher risks of, respectively,obstructive and restrictive defects at PFTs.

文摘In this paper,the ballistic impact experiments,including impact test chamber and impact double-spaced plates,were conducted to study the reaction behaviors of a novel functionally graded reactive material(FGRM),which was composed of polytetrafluoroethylene/aluminum(PTFE/Al)and PTFE/Al/bismuth trioxide(Bi_(2)O_(3)).The experiments showed that the impact direction of the FGRM had a significant effect on the reaction.With the same impact velocity,when the first impact material was PTFE/Al/Bi_(2)O_(3),compared with first impact material PTFE/Al,the FGRM induced higher overpressure in the test chamber and larger damaged area of double-spaced plates.The theoretical model,which considered the shock wave generation and propagation,the effect of the shock wave on reaction efficiency,and penetration behaviors,was developed to analyze the reaction behaviors of the FGRM.The model predicted first impact material of the FGRM with a higher shock impedance was conducive to the reaction of reactive materials.The conclusion of this study provides significant information about the design and application of reactive materials.
