The role of interleukin-8 produced by tumor induced fibroblasts in the development of cutaneous melanoma

Objective To determine the role of interleukin-8 (IL-8) produced by tumor induced fibroblasts in the development of cutaneous melanoma. Methods B16 melanoma cells induced L929 fibroblasts phenotype was transdifferentiated to myofibroblasts (MF) by co-culture in vitro. MF was monitored by morphology and immunophenotype for a-SMA. The level of IL-8 was detected by ELISA. The effect on B16 cell proliferation rate was estimated using MIT method in vitro. Melanoma implanting model was constructed in C57 mice. Results L929 MF phenotype could be modulated by B16 melanoma cells-derived transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and elevated the levels of IL-8. L929 MF did not influence the B16 melanoma cells viability in vitro, but shortened the time of tumor formation and increased the incidence rates of tumors in C57 implanting model mice. Conclusion Fibroblasts can be activated by tumor cells and produce IL-8, which acts as an inflammatory cytokine promoting the development of cutaneous melanoma.     

Study on T lymphocyte subsets and NK cells in patients with Graves＇ disease combined with type 2 diabetes

Objective To investigate changes in T lymphocyte subsets and NK cells in patients with simple Graves' disease (GD)and Graves' disease combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus (GD/T2DM). Methods Fifteen cases of GD/ T2DM were selected from our hospital from November 2001 to November 2004. Before and after therapy thyroid function, thyroglobulin antibody (TGA), thyroid microsomal antibody (TMA) and blood glucose level were measured, and T lymphocyte subsets (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD4/CD8) and NK cells (CD56) were measured by immunofluorescence double labeling monoclonal antibody and flow cytometry, respectively. At the same time, comparison was made with simple GD (15 cases), T2DM (15 cases) and healthy control (20 cases). Results Before therapy, CD4/CD8, CD4 and NK cells in GD/T2DM were less than normal, and there was no significant difference in comparison with simple GD (P<0.05). In T2DM group, only CD4/CD8 and CD4 were less than those of healthy controls (P<0.05). When thyroid function recovered after 1 to 3 months of methimazole treatment in both GD/T2DM and simple GD groups, various indexes recovered, which were more obvious in simple GD. Conclusion Immune hypofunction of GD may be the key to the immune abnormality of GD/T2DM, which is more significant than that of simple GD or T2DM. The recovery of thyroid function and immune abnormality is not consistent, and the recovery of GD is more significant than that of GD/T2DM.

政府介入能否有效推动技术创新:基于两个案例的分析

技术创新与产业升级是经济持续发展的核心动力,其成功与否攸关中国经济的未来.因此,约从2000年中期开始,国家便启动鼓励技术创新与产业结构升级的方针政策.然而,作者的田野调查发现,这类产业政策往往并未取得预期效果.作者通过对典型案例的深入分析,条理出政府介入创新失效的两种机制:“风险积聚”与“监督失灵”.前者是指国家介入促使企业不顾风险,从而提高了企业失败的可能性;后者是指创新活动无法衡量,导致政策实施过程中政府无法监督企业.在上述发现的基础上,作者进一步反思了政府介入在早期“追赶模仿”与如今“超前创新”两个不同发展阶段的作用效果,认为中国若想成功鼓励技术创新,必须转变既有的发展模式.     

RNA结合蛋白La对宫颈癌细胞侵袭转移的影响及其机制

目的探讨RNA结合蛋白La(La)对宫颈癌细胞侵袭转移的作用及其作用机制。方法采用RNA干扰技术沉默La基因在宫颈癌细胞株HeLa中的表达,并通过G418筛选,构建稳定表达的HeLa的La干扰克隆。采用划痕实验、Transwell小室等检测La对宫颈癌细胞侵袭转移的影响。利用Western blot的方法检测细胞中基质金属蛋白酶2(MMP-2)和基质金属蛋白酶抑制剂2(TIMP-2)的表达,并采用明胶酶谱的方法检测细胞培养上清中MMP-2的活性。结果 La干扰后细胞的迁徙和侵袭能力明显降低,对细胞迁徙距离和穿过Transwell小室的细胞数目进行分析后发现,差异有统计学意义;同时发现在细胞中MMP-2的蛋白表达水平及酶活性均降低,而TIMP-2的蛋白表达水平上调。结论 La对宫颈癌的侵袭转移具有促进作用,这种作用可能与其对基质金属蛋白及其抑制剂的调控相关。     

飞机防冰腔结构参数的重要性测度

分析了常见的3种飞机防冰腔结构,应用Gambit软件建立了双蒙皮防冰腔结构网格模型。采用Spalart-Allmaras湍流模型模拟热气在防冰腔内的流动状况,采用Fluent软件进行传热效率分析,建立了防冰腔结构参数对传热效率的重要性测度模型。通过随机响应面法建立防冰腔结构参数与传热效率的函数关系,采用低分散性抽样法求解防冰腔结构参数的重要性测度,建立了防冰腔结构参数的重要性测度分析流程。分析结果表明:当笛形管中心到外蒙皮的距离从35.15mm增加到38.85mm时,传热系数由0.505减小到0.463;当双蒙皮通道高度从2.85mm增加到3.15mm时,传热系数由0.495减小到0.476;当射流孔孔径从1.90mm增加到2.10mm时,传热系数从0.505减小到0.494;当射流孔角度从14.25°增加到15.75°时,传热系数从0.476增加到0.494。防冰腔结构参数的重要性排序依次为射流孔角度、笛形管中心到外蒙皮距离、射流孔孔径、双蒙皮通道高度,在防冰腔结构加工与装配过程中,需要重点考虑射流孔角度与笛形管中心到外蒙皮距离这2个参数。
