Control group was treated by DCF chemotherapy, while the observation group by Shenqi Fuzheng Injection based on the DCF chemotherapy. The levels of peripheral blood cells, tumor markers and immune function indexes in both groups were detected and compared before and after treatment.Results: There were no significant differences in serum RBC, WBC, PLT, Hb, NSE, CYFRA21-1, CA199, CEA, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+ levels before treatment in both groups. Compared with the pretreatment group, the levels of RBC, WBC, PLT and Hb in both groups decreased to some extent after treatment, and the levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group;Compared with the same group before treatment, the levels of NSE, CYFRA21-1, CA199 and CEA in the two groups were significantly decreased, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group;CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ levels in control group and observation group increased to some extent after treatment, and the levels in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group. The levels of CD8+ in both groups after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group after treatment. The above data for statistical analysis had significant differences.Conclusions: Shenqi Fuzheng injection combined with chemotherapy helps to clear and kill cancer cells, enhance immunity and reduce hematological toxicity after chemotherapy, which can be used as an adjuvant chemotherapy for gastric cancer.展开更多

Methods We enrolled 290 newborns and their hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) positive mothers. HBV cccDNA in PBMC and HBV DNA in serum were detected by a real‐time PCR‐TaqM an probe while HBV serological markers were detected with an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Results There was a positive correlation between the levels of PBMC HBV cccD NA and serum HBV DNA and HBeA g(r = 0.436 and 0.403, P < 0.001). The detection rate of pattern A [‘HBsA g(+), HBeA g(+), and anti‐HBc(+)’] was significantly higher in the PBMC HBV cccD NA positive group than in the control group(χ^2 = 48.48, P < 0.001). There was a significant association between HBV intrauterine transmission and PBMC HBV cccD NA(χ^2 = 9.28, P = 0.002). In the presence of serum HBV DNA, HBeA g, and PBMC HBV cccD NA, the risk of HBV intrauterine transmission was three times higher(OR = 3.69, 95% CI: 1.30‐10.42) than that observed in their absence. The risk of HBV intrauterine transmission was the greatest(OR = 5.89, 95% CI: 2.35‐14.72) when both PBMC HBV cccD NA and pattern A were present. A Bayesian network model showed that maternal PBMC HBV cccD NA was directly related to HBV intrauterine transmission. Conclusion PBMC HBV cccDNA may be a direct risk factor for HBV intrauterine transmission. Our study suggests that serological markers could be combined with PBMC‐related markers in prenatal testing.展开更多

METHODS: In vitro immunomodulation was assessed by measuring interleukJn (IL)-12p70, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interferon 7 (IFNγ) release by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) after 24 h stimulation with 13 live bacterial strains. A murine model of acute TNBS-colitis was next used to evaluate the prophylactic protective capacity of the same set of strains. RESULTS: A strain-specific in vivo protection was observed. The strains displaying an in vitro potential to induce higher levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and lower levels of the inflammatory cytokine IL-12, offered the best protection in the in vivo colitis model. In contrast, strains leading to a low IL-10/IU12 cytokine ratio could not significantly attenuate colitis symptoms, CONCLUSION:These results show that we could predict the in vivo protective capacity of the studied lactic acid bacteria (LAB) based on the cytokine profile we established in vitro. The PBHC-based assay we used may thus serve as a useful primary indicator to narrow down the number of candidate strains to be tested in murine models for their anti-inflammatory potential.展开更多
