RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the value of autoantibodies and serum levels of IgG4 and CA19-9 in the diagnosis of IgG4 associated cholangitis (IgG4-SC).Methods:Detect the serum IgG4 and CA19-9 of 41 clinical cases of IgG4-SC patients,162 clinical cases of non IgG4-SC patients and 40 healthy human serum samples by immunoassay and direct chemiluminescence methods, also detect the antinuclear antibodies (ANA),anti neutrophil antibody (ANCA),anti smooth muscle antibody (SMA) and anti mitochondrial antibody (AMA) of the above serum samples by indirect immunofluorescence and analyze the detection results.Results:①The positive rates of ANA,ANCA,SMA and AMA in patients with IgG4-SC were 41.46%,7.32%,0 and 2.44%.Among them,the positive rate of ANA was significantly different from that of the normal control group(P<0.01),and the positive rate of SMA and AMA was significantly different from that of non IgG4-SC group(P<0.01),and so as the positive rate of ANCA do with that of PSC group.②The number of serum IgG4 and CA19-9 increased samples were significantly compared with the normal control group (P<0.01);the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.979 and 0.646,respectively,and P<0.05.Conclusion:The high level of serum IgG4 and CA19-9 and autoantibody detection are of great accuracy and important clinical value in the differential diagnosis of IgG4-SC.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of salidroside on hypoxia-induced apoptosis of corpus cavernosum smooth muscle cells (CCSMCs) in rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Rat CCSMCs were cultured in vitro by the enzyme digestion method and identified by immunofluorescent staining of anti-alpha-SMA and anti-Desmin. The non-toxic dose of salidroside was determined by MTT assay. Low-oxygen mixed gas (1% O2, 5% CO2, and 94% N2) was piped into a modular incubator chamber to induce hypoxia. The CCSMCs were divided into a normal, a hypoxia, and a 32 microg/mL salidroside intervention group. The apoptosis of the CCSMCs was detected by flow cytometry and the expression of the caspase-3 protein determined by Western blot.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The majority of the CCSMCs were positive for alpha-SMA and Desmin at immunofluorescent staining. Salidroside at < 32 microg/ml produced no obvious toxicity to CCSMCs. Compared with the normal control group, the rates of early and late apoptosis of CCSMCs were both increased significantly in the hypoxia group ([12.77 +/-1.41]% vs [18.69 +/- 1.29]%, P < 0.01 and [14.63 +/- 2.00]% vs [21.03 +/- 1.530]% , P < 0.05). Western blot showed a markedly increased expression of cleaved caspase-3 (P < 0.01). Intervention with 32 microg/ml salidroside significantly reduced hypoxia-induced early apoptosis of CCSMCs ([13.46% +/- 1.87]%, P < 0.01) and decreased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Salidroside can reduce the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and inhibit hypoxia-induced apoptosis of CCSMCs in rats.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study and discuss the effect and mechanism of Hirsutella sinensis mycelium (HSM) on idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in rats.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Forty Wistar rats were divided into five groups: the normal control group, the model control group, the high-dose group (1.0 g x kg(-1) HSM), the low-dose group (0.5 g x kg(-1) HSM), and the positive control group (10 mg x kg(-1) hydrocortisone). In addition to rats in the normal control group, the pulmonary fibrosis model was established by injecting 5 mg x kg(-1) bleomycin into rat tracheas for consecutively 28 days, in order to observe their lung function, lung tissue hydroxyproline, cytokines and pathology.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>After rats were administered with HSM, 0.5 g x kg(-1) and 1.0 g x kg(-1) HSM could significantly decrease lung index and hydroxyproline content (P<0.01), while notably improving pulmonary function, alveolus inflammation and fibrosis degree (P<0.05, P<0.01); 1.0 g x kg(-1) HSM could decrease significantly protein expressions of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and TGF-beta1 in lung tissues, while increasing significantly protein expressions of IFN-gamma (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>HSM have better effect in treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in rats. Its treatment effect and mechanism are related to the regulation of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and TGF-beta1 and IFN-gamma imbalance.</p>
