Effects of PPARγ agonist on calpain expression in model of acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

AIM: To explore the effects of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ （PPARγ） agonist on calcium-activated neutral proteinase, calpain, expression in the brain of rats with acute experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). METHODS: EAE model was established in rats by inoculating the homogenate contained spinal cord of guinea pig and complete Freunds adjuvant. Respectively, the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone and non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen were used to treat the EAE rats. Outcome measures (Kohs scale) were applied at baseline and after treatment to assess the improvement of clinical symptoms. Calpain expression levels were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS: All the groups showed significant improvements of scales scores after treatment with rosiglitazone and ibuprofen. No significant difference of the expression of calpain mRNA was found among EAE group, rosiglitazone and ibuprofen groups (P>0.05), but the expression of calpain reduced markedly in rosiglitazone and ibuprofen groups compared with that in EAE group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Rosiglitazone and ibuprofen inhibit the expression of calpain and improve the clinical symptoms of EAE rats. PPARγ agonist plays a neuroprotective role in EAE rats.     

Effect of different PRA serum levels from patients with β-thalassemia on the proliferation and differentiation potential of the hematopoietic stem cells /progenitor cells of cord blood

AIM: To probe the effect of different panel reactive antibody(PRA) serum levels from patients with β-thalassemia on the proliferation and differentiation potential of the hematopoietic stem /progenitor cell of cord blood.METHODS: 1×105 mononuclear cells (MNCs) isolated from umbilical cord blood were incubated with different PRA serum levels (0 μL,50 μL,100 μL) respectively and complement,inoculated into the methylcellulose cultural system.The proliferation and differentiation potential of the hematopoietic stem /progenitor cell of cord blood by the colony formation assay were detected on day 7 and day 14,respectively.RESULTS: After culture of 7 days,the total colonies and CFU-GM were 88.20±9.41,79.00±11.39 in group A and 88.60±9.12,79.20±10.44 in group B,which were significantly higher than those of 20.60±7.39,15.20±4.66 in group C and those of 4.00±2.05,1.40±0.51 in group D (P<0.01).Meanwhile compared with group A and group E,no significant difference was found (P>0.05).After culture for 14 days,the total colonies and CFU-GM were 216.00±31.10,117.40±24.80 in group A and 213.20±31.06,116.00±19.75 in group B,which were significantly higher than those of 97.80±14.43,32.80±8.10 in group C and those of 31.40±13.41,8.40±4.30 in group D (P<0.01).The CFU-GEMMs were 45.60±8.51 in group A and 42.60±7.03 in group B,which were significantly higher than those of 20.80±6.96 in group C and those of 7.80±6.06 in group D (P<0.05).The BFU-MK was 12.80±4.42 in group A and 11.00±2.74 in group B respectively,which were significantly higher than that of 1.00±0.55 in group D (P<0.05).The CFU-E in group B 17.20±4.03 was significantly higher than that of 5.60±2.87 in group D (P<0.05).Meanwhile compared with group A and group E,no significant difference was found (P>0.05).By the Kendall test,there were negative correlations between the level of PRA serum and the total colonies,CFU-GM on day 7,the total colonies,CFU-GM,CFU-GEMM,BFU-E,BFU-MK on day 14 (tau-b=-0.793,-0.849,-0.808,-0.804,-0.645,-0.674,-0.624,P<0.01).There was a negative correlation between the level of PRA serum and CFU-MK on day 14 (tau-b=-0.466，P<0.05).CONCLUSION: PRA sera inhibit the colony in the colony cultures of the hematopoietic stem cells/progenitor cells in cord blood.The inhibition depends on the level of PRA sera.The higher the level of PRA sera,the stronger the inhibition is observed in our study.

精浆和精子对母兔子宫免疫及孕向发育的影响

在结扎子宫颈的情况下,分别在兔同一子宫的两侧子宫角剖腹注入生理盐水(对照)、精浆或精子以研究精浆和精子对子宫免疫和孕向发育的影响。试验共用母兔18只,每组6只。在注入后72 h时处死试验用兔,取子宫进行一般测量,并切片染色,用图象采集分析系统进行研究。结果表明:1)注入子宫的精浆和精子,都能明显降低黏膜中的肥大细胞数量和增加子宫角中冲洗液内的细胞数(P0.01)。精浆与精子相比,精浆降低黏膜中肥大细胞数量的作用更大(P0.05);而精子提高子宫角冲洗液内细胞数的作用更强(P0.01)。2)无论精浆还是精子,都能显著(P0.05)或极显著(P0.01)促进子宫(子宫角指数、子宫角长度和子宫角直径)、子宫壁(子宫壁厚度、黏膜层厚度、黏膜上皮层厚度和肌层厚度)、黏膜腺体(腺体数和腺上皮的厚度)以及黏膜血管的孕向发育。精浆与精子相比,就子宫、子宫壁及黏膜血管的孕向发育来说,精浆的作用更明显(P0.05或P0.01);而对子宫黏膜腺体孕向发育的作用,精浆和精子间没有明显差异(P0.05)。

传染性腔上囊炎疫苗免疫鸡TLR7基因表达的动态变化

给11日龄雏鸡分别口服接种鸡传染性腔上囊炎（IBD）弱毒疫苗（法贝灵，IBD-Blen）1和3头份后，于不同时间采集脾和腔上囊组织，分离纯化淋巴细胞，常规方法抽提总RNA，以鸡伊actin基因为内参，采用半定量RT—PCR法检测两种组织中鸡Toll样受体7（ChTLR7）基因的表达动态。结果显示，接种IBD弱毒疫苗前，试验鸡脾和腔上囊组织中均有ChTLR7的微量表达，疫苗接种后第7h，脾中ChTLR7 mRNA的表达开始显著上调，至接种后第12h达峰值，此后迅速下降，至第130h时降至疫苗接种前的水平；而腔上囊组织中ChTLR7 mRNA的表达自接种后第12h开始增加，第24h时达峰值，随后迅速下降，约72h后恢复至疫苗接种前水平。表明ChTLR7可能参与了IBDV感染早期的天然免疫反应过程。
