SARS患者急性期病情严重程度与康复期免疫功能的关系

目的考察SARS患者发病期病情轻重程度与康复期机体免疫功能受损的关系。方法将患者分为未使用呼吸机组（A）和使用过呼吸机组（B），通过回顾性分析SAILS患者住院期间和康复期的病例资料，比较两组患者肺部病灶阴影范围和吸收时间、WBC总数及其分类、康复期淋巴T细胞亚群与活化分子等。结果B组的肺部病灶范围在第2周内显著性大于A组，吸收时间也长于A组；A组的WBC总数，中性（N）、淋巴细胞（L）计数和百分数均在正常参考值范围，B组WBC总数、N计数与百分数高于A组，L百分数低于A组；第1次随访B组CD8^＋、CD8^＋／CD28^-、CD3^＋／HLA-DR^＋T细胞显著性高于A组，CD3^-／HLA—DR^＋细胞显著低于A组；第2次随访仅B组CD3^-／HIA—DR^＋细胞仍显著低于A组，其余免疫细胞无统计学差异。结论SAILS患者未使用呼吸机组较使用过呼吸机组肺部病理性损害小，免疫功能基本正常或受损程度很小。     

Circulating leucocyte subpopulations in sedentary subjects following graded maximal exercise with hypoxia

Summary Ten healthy sedentary subjects [age, 27.5 (SD 3.5) years; height, 180 (SD 5) cm; mass, 69.3 (SD 6.3) kg] performed two periods of maximal incremental graded cycle ergometer exercise in a supine position. Randomly ordered and using an open spirometric system, one exercise was carried out during normoxia [maximal oxygen consumption ( O_2max)=38.6 (SD 3.5) ml·min^–1·kg^–1; maximal blood lactate concentration, 9.86 (SD 1.85) mmol·l^–1; test duration, 22.6 (SD 2.7) min], the other during hypoxia [ O_2max=33.2 (SD 3.2) ml·min^–1· kg^–1; maximal blood lactate concentration, 10.38 (SD 2.02) mmol·l^–1; test duration, 19.7 (SD 2.8) min]. At rest, immediately (0 p) and 60 min (60 p) after exercise, counts of leucocyte subpopulations (flow cytometry), cortisol and catecholamine concentrations were determined. At 0 p in contrast to normoxia, during hypoxia there was no significant increase of granulocytes. There were no significant differences between normoxia and hypoxia in the increases from rest to 0 p in counts of monocytes, total lymphocytes and lymphocyte subpopulations [clusters of differentiation (CD), CD3⁺, CD4⁺CD45RO^–, CD4⁺CD45RO⁺, CD8⁺CD45RO^–, CD8⁺CD45RO⁺, CD3⁺HLA-DR⁺, CD3^–CD16/CD56⁺, CD3⁺CD16/CD56⁺, CD 19⁺] as well as adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol concentrations. The counts of CD3 ^–CD16/CD56⁺-and CD8 ⁺CD45RO⁺-cells increased most. At 60 p, CD3^–CD16/CD56⁺ and CD3⁺CD16/CD56⁺-cell counts were below pre-exercise levels and under hypoxia slightly but significantly lower than under normoxia. We concluded that the exercise-induced mobilization and redistribution of most leucocyte and lymphocyte subpopulations were unimpaired under acute hypoxia at sea level. Reduced increases of granulocyte counts during the study and reduced cell numbers of natural killer cells and cytotoxic, not major histocompatibility complex-restricted T-cells, only indicated marginal effects on the immune system.

用BA－ELISA斑点法检测痢疾杆菌免疫小鼠GALT中的特异性抗体分泌细胞（ASC）

改进的ＢＡ－ＥＬＩＳＰＯＴ法使免疫酶斑更为清晰，保存时间延长。用此法检测了痢疾杆菌福氏２ａ经口及腹腔免疫后，小鼠派伊尔氏（ＰＰ）淋巴结、肠系膜淋巴结（ＭＬＮ）及脾脏（ＳＰＬ）中特异性ＩｇＡ、ＩｇＧ、ＩｇＭ抗体分泌细胞（ＡｎｔｉｂｏｄｙＳｅｃｒｅｔｉｎｇｃｅｌｌ，ＡＳＣ）的动态变化，得到有规律的结果：两种免疫途径均能在ＰＰ及ＭＬＮ中诱导出３类特异ＡＳＣ的显著升高，但口服导致的升高其持续时间较腹腔途径为短。此外，腹腔途径还能诱导ＳＰＬ中３种ＡＳＣ升高。

腺病毒编码人TRP2修饰DC诱发抗小鼠黑色素瘤免疫的研究

目的比较腺病毒载体(Ad)介导人和小鼠酪氨酸酶相关蛋白2(tyrosinase-relatedpro-tein2,TRP2)修饰小鼠骨髓来源的树突状细胞(BM-DC)诱发抗小鼠黑色素瘤免疫的差异。方法Ad编码人或小鼠TRP2(AdhTRP2或AdmTRP2)体外感染小鼠BM-DC并体内皮下免疫C57BL/6小鼠,7d后取出被免疫小鼠脾细胞行体内细胞毒性T淋巴细胞杀伤试验(invivoCTL)和细胞内IFN-γ染色(ICS)分析CTL的杀伤活性和IFN-γ的产生;或给免疫后小鼠皮下接种小鼠B16.F10黑色素瘤细胞,观察荷瘤小鼠的成活情况。结果invivoCTL和ICS分析显示,AdhTRP2/BM-DC免疫小鼠,其6hCTL杀伤率为(98.7±1.2)%,IFN-γ产生的CD8+T细胞占总CD8+T细胞的(1.25±0.21)%;而AdmTRP2/BM-DC免疫的小鼠,其6hCTL杀伤率和产生IFN-γ的CD8+T细胞比例分别为(28.6±6.3)%和(0.24±0.06)%。荷瘤试验表明,AdhTRP2/BM-DC免疫小鼠后1周皮下接种106B16.F10细胞,观察3个月100%的小鼠无瘤生长;而接种5×104B16.F10细胞至AdmTRP2/BM-DC免疫1周的小鼠,3个月后小鼠成活率仅为40%。结论Ad介导异种(人)TRP2较自身(小鼠)TRP2修饰的BM-DC更为有效地打破肿瘤免疫耐受、诱导强烈的抗黑色素瘤免疫反应,是一种高效的以DC为基础的肿瘤疫苗。     

Immune responses to DNA in normal and aberrant immunity

Because of structural microheterogeneity, DNA can exert powerful effects that lead to immune system activation as well as antibody induction. These activating effects resemble those of endotoxin and result from sequences that occur much more commonly in bacterial DNA than in mammalian DNA. In contrast, mammalian DNA can inhibit the response to bacterial DNA as well as other stimuli and may serve a counterregulatory role during infection. The recognition of the immune effects of DNA is relevant to the pathogenesis of a variety of infectious and inflammatory diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus, a prototypic autoimmune disease characterized by anti-DNA autoantibodies.     

Operation Everest II: Alterations in the immune system at high altitudes

We investigated the effects on immune function after progressive hypobaric hypoxia simulating an ascent to 25,000 ft (7620 m) over 4 weeks. Multiple simultaneousin vitro andin vivo immunologic variables were obtained from subjects at sea level, 7500 ft (2286 m), and 25,000 ft during a decompression chamber exposure. Phytohemag-glutinin-stimulated thymidine uptake and protein synthesis in mononuclear cells were reduced at extreme altitudes. Mononuclear-cell subset analysis by flow cytometry disclosed an increase in monocytes without changes in B cells or T-cell subsets. Plasma IgM and IgA but not IgG levels were increased at altitudes, whereas pokeweed mitogen-stimulatedin vitro IgG, IgA, and IgM secretion was unchanged. During exposure to 25,000 ft,in vitro phytohemagglutinin-stimulated interferon production and natural killer-cell cytotoxicity did not change statistically, but larger intersubject differences occurred. IgA and lysozyme levels (nasal wash) and serum antibodies to nuclear antigens were not influenced by altitude exposure. These results suggest that T-cell activation is blunted during exposure to severe hypoxemia, whereas B-cell function and mucosal immunity are not. Although the mechanism of alteredin vitro immune responsiveness after exposure to various environmental stressors has not been elucidated in humans, hypoxia may induce alterations in immune regulation as suggested byin vitro immune assays of effector-cell function.Some of this study's results were presented as an abstract at the FASEB meeting in St. Louis, Missouri, 1986.
