NKG2D is activation receptors of natural cell killer(NK) and CD8+T lymphocyte surface.NKG2D ligand molecules could be induced to express when cell is in the emergency state and is infected.In the aspect of tumor immune monitoring and tumor immuno-therapy,it received a lot of research.The combination of NKG2D and its ligand molecules can activate NK cells,and co-excite the T cells,then activate the body's immune system and cellular immune mechanism,inducing immune killer role.The activated NK cells strengthen through IL-15 the reaction to T cells of antigen presenting cells(APCs) which are from donors or receptors,causing rejection from the body to graft.From the other side,after NK cells being activated by NKG2D receptor,the number of T cells is reduced,so is the immune ability of regulatory T cells.Increase of the combination of NKG2D and its molecular ligands could provide new ideas in seeking for new immune therapy.So to strengthen the research of this aspect is of important clinic value in improving the survival time of tumor patients.
Objective To study MICA gene polymorphism and the expression levels of sMICA in liver cancer. Methods PCR-STR microsatellite genotyped technique was used to detect the polymorphism of MICA in Exon 5 in 141 cases of liver cancer and 141 cases of normal controls, and the relevance index between them was calculated. Results We identified five allelic genes in MICA Exon 5 in 141 patients with liver cancer in Hunan province by using PCR-STR method. Each allele and its frequency respectively are: MICA-A4 (11.7%), MICA-A5 (34.0%), MICA-A5.1 (35.1%), MICA-A6 (8.2%), MICA-A9 (11.0%). We further found that only MICA-A5.1 showed significant difference, indicating that polymorphism of MICA Exon 5 alleles is associated with HCC incidence. Conclusion Liver cancer was significantly related with MICA-A5.1, but not related with other MICA alleles. The patients with MICA-A5.1 homozygous have the highest level of serum sMICA. The patients with MICA-A5.1 heterozygous showed a lower level of serum sMICA and the patients without MICA-A5.1 showed the lowest levels of serum sMICA. Serum levels of sMICA were significantly related to MICA-A5.1 polymorphism.

Objective:To explore the change of content of the newly discovered serum markers B7-H4 in serum of ovarian cancer patients and its clinical significance. Methods:RT-PCR detection was used to detect the changes of mRNA content in B7-H4 gene in serum of 35 patients who were diagnosed as ovarian cancer and 23 cases of ovarian benign tumor, and sandwich ELISA assay was used to detect B7-H4 changes in the serum. CA125 II kits were taken to detect changes in the level of CA125 in all patients. Single-factor method was adopted to analyze and compare the relationship of the levels of B7-H4 and CA125 and the pathological types of patients; Serum of 30 cases of healthy women was selected as control. Results:Through the RT-PCR detection, mRNA content in B7-H4 gene were found significantly higher in ovarian cancer patients than in the control group, P 0.05. Compared with the healthy group and the benign tumor group, ovarian cancer patients have the unusual increase of B7-H4 expression, P 0.05; its change extent and accuracy were higher than CA125.Conclusion:The B7-H4 molecules content changes in serum can be used as an important indicator in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
Objective:To explore the protective effects and mechanisms of pravastatin on impairment of vascular endothelium cells induced by lysophosphatidyl choline (LPC). Methods: The models of both isolated thoracic aortic rings of rats and cultured human endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used. The endothelial-dependent and non-dependent relaxation and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in vascular tissues, and vitality of endothelial cells and the biochemical indexes were measured. Results: LPC decreased markdly endothelial-dependent relaxation response (EDR) and increased significantly content of MDA in vascular tissue. The incubation of rings with pravastatin concentration-dependently improved significantly endothelial-dependent relaxation response (EDR) injuried by LPC, but did not affect the non-endothelial dependent. Simultaneously pravastatin obviously prevented the increase of the MDA in vascular tissue and the ROS in cultured HUVECs, and inhibited the increase of vitality of endothelial cells and reduction of both eNOS activity and NO content induced by LPC in cultured HUVECs. Conclusions: LPC could directly inhibit endothelial-dependent relaxation induced by Ach. Pravastatin may concentration-dependently improve the impairment of endothelial function damaged by LPC. The action mechanismes of pravastatin may be related to antioxidant and antiinflammatory defenses.
Objective To investigate the distribution and the trend of drug resistance of the hospital pathogenic bacteria,provide a guideline of rational use of antibiotic for the doctors and reduce the generation of drug resistant bacterial strains.Methods The distribution of 2 140 bacterial strains and antimicrobial susceptibility of these strains in the past three years(2002-2004)were analyzed retrospectively.Results Of 2 140 clinical isolates,Gram negative bacteria were highly susceptible to IMI(imipenem),FEP(cefepime)and MERO(meropenem),while the susceptibility to CIP(ciprofloxacin),PICP(penicillin)and E(erythromycin)were not changed.However,the susceptibilities to other 14 antibiotics were reduced.Gram positive bacteria were susceptible to VA(vancomycin).Conclusion Clinicians should apply antibiotics rationally in order to reduce the drug resistant bacterial strains.
