新生儿抚触的研究进展

新生儿抚触作为儿科护理的新理念,是一种对新生儿健康十分有益的自然健康医疗技术。开展新生儿抚触对新生儿有特别重要的意义。抚触可以促进婴儿体格和智能的发育、增进睡眠、稳定情绪;抚触可以增强免疫力、促进食物的消化和吸收;抚触可以促进早产儿生长发育、新生儿缺氧缺血性脑病患儿的康复;抚触可以降低新生儿黄疸、避免发生胆红素脑病;抚触可促进母婴之间情感交流;抚触可利于产后妈妈的恢复。总之,无论是对家庭、社会、医院、还是对新生儿自身来讲,抚触都是非常有意义、重要且必要的,作为家长及医院工作人员都应该了解并掌握新生儿抚触的方法以及注意事项,因此,在临床工作和家庭中都应该积极主动的广泛开展新生儿抚触,目前各国都在研究并开展新生儿抚触这种护理技术,未来新生儿抚触将会被越来越多的家庭所认识并在医院中和家庭中广泛开展。     

The thymic stromal cell line MTSC4 induced thymocyte apoptosis in a non-MHC-restricted manner

Mouse thymic stromal cell line 4 (MTSC4) is one of the stromal cell lines established in our laboratory. While losing the characteristics of epithelial cells, they express some surface markers shared with thymic dendritic cells (TDCs). To further study the biological functions of these cells, we compared the capability of MTSC4 with TDCs in the induction of thymocyte apoptosis, using thymic reaggregation culture system. Apoptosis of thymocytes induced by MTSC4 and TDCs was measured by Annexin V and PI staining and analyzed by flow cytometry. We found that MTSC4 selectively augmented the apoptosis of CD4^ 8^ (DP) thymocytes. This effect was Fas/FasL independent and could not be blocked by antibodies to MHC class I and class II molecules. In addition, MTSC4 enhanced the apoptosis of DP thymocytes from different strains of mice, which implies that MTSC4-induced thymocyte apoptosis is not mediated by the TCR recognition of self peptide/MHC molecules. In contrast to MTSC4, thymocyte apoptosis induced by TDCs was MHC-restricted. Thus, MHC-independent fashion of stromal-DP thymocyte interaction may be one of the ways to induce thymocyte apoptosis in thymus. Our study has also shown that the interaction of MTSC4 stromal cells and thymocytes is required for the induction of thymocyte apoptosis.     

血卟啉单甲醚在A549肺癌细胞内亚细胞分布的动态变化

目的:探讨血卟啉单甲醚(Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether,HMME)在A549肺癌细胞内亚细胞分布的动态变化。方法:传代培养A549肺癌细胞,分别与光敏剂HMME孵育2 h和12 h。应用由荧光显微镜及电感耦合器材(Charge-coupled device,CCD)组成的高分辨率荧光显微成像系统,结合荧光探针标记技术,采用细胞器-细胞荧光强度比值法研究HMME在不同时间的亚细胞分布情况。结果:在2 h和12 h两个孵育时间点高尔基体的平均荧光强度比值(J1/J2)值都最高;随着孵育时间延长,A549细胞的四种细胞器J1/J2值都升高且溶酶体幅度最大。结论:孵育时间是影响HMME亚细胞分布的一个重要因素。随着孵育时间的延长,A549肺癌细胞各细胞器吸收HMME能力逐渐增强,尤以溶酶体显著。     

Critical role of interleukin-17/interleukin-17 receptor axis in mediating Con A-induced hepatitis

Concanavalin A (Con A)-induced hepatitis is thought to be a T-cell-mediated disease with active destruction of liver cells. Interleukin (IL)-17 is a cytokine produced principally by CD4(+) T cells. However, whether IL-17/IL-17 receptor (IL-17/IL-17R)-mediated responses are involved in T-cell-mediated Con A-induced liver injury remains unclear. In this study, we found that IL-17 expression was highly elevated in liver tissues during Con A-induced hepatitis. The increased levels of IL-17 were paralleled with the severity of liver injury reflected by Alanine aminotransaminase and histological assay as well as the secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6. Blockage of IL-17 significantly ameliorated Con A-induced hepatitis, while overexpression of IL-17 systemically resulted in massive hepatocyte necrosis in mice. Furthermore, overexpression of an IL-17R immunoglobulin G1 fusion protein significantly attenuated liver inflammation after acute Con A treatment. High expression of IL-17R on Kupffer cells was also observed along with the production of cytokines including TNF-α and IL-6. Inhibition of Kupffer cells by gadolinium chloride completely prevented Con A-induced liver injury and cytokine release. Finally, IL-17-expressing CD4(+) T and natural killer T cells were greatly increased in Con A-injected mice compared with that in controls. Overall, our results indicate that IL-17R signaling is critically involved in the pathogenesis in Con A-induced hepatitis, and blockade of IL-17/IL-17R signaling pathway may represent a novel therapeutic intervention in human autoimmune-related hepatitis.
