| 1 | Dysfunction of peripheral blood dendritic cells from patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection显示文摘AIM To identify the property of dendritic cella (DCs) of peripheral blood monocytes (PBMC) in patlents with chronic HBV infection.METHODS Twenty patients with persistent HBV infectlon were included in this study, 10 healthy subjects being used as a control group. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of T cell-depleted populations were incubated and induced into mature dendritic cells in the RPMI-1640 medium in the presence of cytokines GMCSF, IL-4, FLt-3, TNF-α and 100 mL@ L-1 of fetal calf serum for a total of 10 - 12 days. The expressions of surface markers on DCs were evaluated using flow cytometric analysis. ELISA method was used to determine the cytokine levels of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IL-10 in the supernatant produced by DCs. For detection of the stimulatory capacity of DCs to T cell proliferation,mytomycin C-treated DC were incubated with allogenic T cells.RESULTS A typical morphology of mature DCs from healthy subjects and HBV-infected patients was induced in in vitro incubation, but the proliferation ability and cellular number of DCs from HBV-infected patients significantly decreased compared with healthy individuals. In particular, the expression levels of HLADR, CD80 (B7-1) and CD86 (B7-2) on DC surface from patients were also lower than that from healthy individuals (0.46 vs 0.92 for HLA-DR, 0.44 vs 0.88 for CD80 and 0.44 vs 0. 84 for CD86, P< 0.05). The stimulatory capacity and production of IL-12 of DCs from patients in allogenic mixed lymphocyte reaction (AMLR) significantly decreased, but the production level of nitric oxide (NO) by DCa simultaneously increased compared with healthy subjects (86± 15 vs 170±22 μmoI@L 1, P<0.05).CONCLUSION The patients with chronic HBV infection have the defective function and immature phenotype of dendritic cells, which may be associated with the inability of efficient presentation of HBV antigens to host immune system for the clearance of HBV. | Fu-Sheng Wang Li-He Xing Ming-Xu Liu Chuan-Lin Zhu Hui-Gang Liu Hui-Fen Wang Zhou-Yun Lei Division of Biological Engineering,~2 Fourth Department of Liver Diseases,Beijing Institute of Infectious Diseases,Beijing Hospital of Infectious Diseases,Beijing 100039,China | 2001 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2001，7，4： | 131 |
| 2 | Immune suppression in chronic hepatitis B infection associated liver disease: A review显示文摘Hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection is one the leading risk factors for chronic hepatitis, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer(HCC), which are a major global health problem. A large number of clinical studies have shown that chronic HBV persistent infection causes the dysfunction of innate and adaptive immune response involving monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, natural killer(NK) cells, T cells. Among these immune cells, cell subsets with suppressive features have been recognized such as myeloid derived suppressive cells(MDSC),NK-reg, T-reg, which represent a critical regulatory system during liver fibrogenesis or tumourigenesis. However, the mechanisms that link HBVinduced immune dysfunction and HBV-related liver diseases are not understood.In this review we summarize the recent studies on innate and adaptive immune cell dysfunction in chronic HBV infection, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and HCC, and further discuss the potential mechanism of HBV-induced immunosuppressive cascade in HBV infection and consequences. It is hoped that this article will help ongoing research about the pathogenesis of HBV-related hepatic fibrosis and HBV-related HCC. | Tian-Yang Li Yang Yang Guo Zhou Zheng-Kun Tu | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019，25，27： | 69 |
| 3 | Combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for colon cancer in China: A meta-analysis显示文摘AIM:To investigate whether autologous dendritic cell(DC)-cytokine-induced killer(CIK)cell therapy is able to improve the therapeutic efficacy of chemotherapy in colon cancer.METHODS:We conducted a systematic review of published papers from the sources of MEDLINE,the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,EMBASE,the Wanfang Database,the China Science and Technology Periodical Database and China Journal Net.Published data were extracted independently by two authors using predefined database templates.The quality of the data from individual papers was also assessed.The effects of chemotherapy were compared with those of chemotherapy in combination with DC-CIK immunotherapy.The pooled analysis was performed using the data from random or fixed-effect models.RESULTS:Seven trials matched our inclusion criteria(n=533).The overall analysis showed significant survival benefit[one-year overall survival(OS),P<0.0001;twoyear OS,P=0.009;three-year OS,P=0.002]in favor of DC-CIK immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy.Disease-free survival(DFS)rate was improved after the combination of DC-CIK immunotherapy and chemotherapy(one-year DFS,P<0.0001;two-year DFS,P=0.002;three-year DFS,P=0.02).An improved overall response rate(P=0.009)was also observed in patients who received DC-CIK therapy.Furthermore,the analysis of T-lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood indicated that the number of CD4+T cells significantly increased in the DC-CIK plus chemotherapy group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The combination of DC-CIK immunotherapy and chemotherapy was superior in prolonging the survival time and enhancing immunological responses. | Zheng-Xu Wang Jun-Xia Cao Zhi-Ping Liu Yu-Xin Cui Chun-Yun Li Duo Li Xiao-Yan Zhang Jin-Long Liu Jun-Li Li | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，4： | 30 |
| 4 | Effect of a cancer vaccine prepared by fusions of hepatocarcinoma cells with dendritic cells显示文摘AIM To prepare a cancer vaccine (H22-DC) expressing high levels of costimulatory molecules based on fusions of hepatocarcinoma cells ( H22 ) with dendritic cells (DC) of mice and to analyze the biological characteristics and induction of specific CTL activity of H22-DC.``METHODS DCs were isolated from murine spleen by metrizamide density gradient centrifugation, purified based on its characteristics of semi-adhesion to culture plates and FcR , and were cultured in the medium containing GM. CSF and IL-4. A large number of DC were harvested. DCs were then fused with H22 cells by PEG and the fusion cells were marked with CDllc MicroBeads. The H22-DC was sorted with Mimi MACS sorter. The techniques of cell culture, immunocytochemistry and light microscopy were also used to test the characteristice of growth and morphology of H22-DC in vitro. As the immunogen, H22-DC was inoculated subcutaneously into the right armpit of BALB/C mice, and their tumorigenicity in vive was observed. MTT was used to test the CTL activity of murine spleen in vitro.``RESULTS DC cells isolated and generated were CD1 lc +cells with irregular shape, and highly expressed CD80,CD86 and CD54 molecules. H22 cells were CDllc cells with sphericel shape and bigger volume, and did not express CD80, CD86 and CD54 molecules. H22-DC was CDllc+ cells with bigger volume, being spherical, flat or irregular in shape, and highly expressed CD80, CD86 and CD54 molecules, too. H22-DC was able to divide and proliferate in vitro, but its activity of proliferation was significantly decreased as compared with H22 cells and its growth curve was flatter than H22 cells. After subcutaneous inoculation over 60 days, 1-12_2-DC showed no tumorigenecity in mice, which was significantly different from control groups (P< 0.01 ) . The spleen CTL activity against H22 cells in mice implanted with fresh H22-DC was significantly higher than control groups (P< 0.0l).``CONCLUSION H22-DC could significantly stimulate the specific CTL activity of murine spleen, which suggests that the fusion cells have already obtained the function of antigen presenting of parental DC and could present H22specific antigen which has not been identified yet, and H22-DC could induce antitumor immune response; although simply mixed H22 cells with DC could stimulate the specific CTL activity which could inhibit the growth of tumor in some degree, it could not prevent the generation of tumor. It shows that the DC vaccine is likely to become a helpful approach in immunotherapy of hepstocarcinoma. | Juan Zhang~1 Jin-Kun Zhang~2 Shao-Hong Zhuo~3 Hai-Bin Chen~2 1 Clinical Laboratory,The First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College,Shantou 515041,Guangdong Province,China2 Cancer Pathology Laboratory,Shantou University Medical College,Shantou 515031,Guangdong Province,China3 Department of Gastroenterology,Third Municipal Hospital of Shantou,Shantou 515073,Guangdong Province,China | 2001 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2001，7，5： | 26 |
| 5 | Gastric cancer and the epoch of immunotherapy approaches显示文摘The incidence of gastric cancer(GC) fell dramatically over the last 50 years, but according to IARC-Globocan 2008, it is the third most frequent cause of cancerrelated deaths with a case fatality GC ratio higher than other common malignancies. Surgical resection is the primary curative treatment for GC though the overall 5-year survival rate remains poor(approximately 20%-25%). To improve the outcome of resectable gastric cancer, different treatment strategies have been evaluated such as adjuvant or perioperative chemotherapy. In resected gastric cancer, the addition of radiotherapy to chemotherapy does not appear to provide any additional benefit. Moreover, in metastatic patients, chemotherapy is the mainstay of palliative therapy with a median overall survival of 8-10 mo and objective response rates of merely 20%-40%. Therefore, the potential for making key beneficial progress is to investigate the GC molecular biology to realize innovative therapeutic strategies, such as specific immunotherapy. In this review, we provide a panoramic view of the different immune-based strategies used for gastric cancer treatment and the results obtained in the most significant clinical trials. In detail, firstly we describe the therapeutic approaches that utilize the monoclonal antibodies while in the second part we analyze the cell-based immunotherapies. | Elena Niccolai Antonio Taddei Domenico Prisco Amedeo Amedei | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015，21，19： | 24 |
| 6 | Current status and perspectives of immune-based therapiesfor hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)is a frequent cancer with a high mortality.For early stage cancer there are potentially curative treatments including local ablation,resection and liver transplantation.However,for more advanced stage disease,there is no optimal treatment available.Even in the case of a'curative'treatment,recurrence or development of a new cancer in the precancerous liver is common.Thus,there is an urgent need for novel and effective(adjuvant)therapies to treat HCC and to prevent recurrence after local treatment in patients with HCC.The unique immune response in the liver favors tolerance,which remains a genuine challenge for conventional immunotherapy in patients with HCC.However,even in this'immunotolerant'organ,spontaneous immune responses against tumor antigens have been detected,although they are insufficient to achieve significant tumor death.Local ablation therapy leads to immunogenic tumor cell death by inducing the release of massive amounts of antigens,which enhances spontaneous immune response.New immune therapies such as dendritic cell vaccination and immune checkpoint inhibition are under investigation.Immunotherapy for cancer has made huge progress in the last few years and clinical trials examining the use of immunotherapy to treat hepatocellular carcinoma have shown some success.In this review,we discuss the current status of and offer some perspectives on immunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma,which could change disease progression in the near future. | Maridi Aerts DaphnéBenteyn Hans Van Vlierberghe Kris Thielemans Hendrik Reynaert | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016，22，1： | 24 |
| 7 | Plasmacytoid dendritic cells in antiviral immunity and autoimmunity显示文摘Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) represent a unique and crucial immune cell population capable of producing large amounts of type I interferons (IFNs) in response to viral infection.The function of pDCs as the professional type I IFN-producing cells is linked to their selective expression of Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) and TLR9,which sense viral nucleic acids within the endosomal compartments.Type I IFNs produced by pDCs not only directly inhibit viral replication but also play an essential role in linking the innate and adaptive immune system.The aberrant activation of pDCs by self nucleic acids through TLR signaling and the ongoing production of type I IFNs do occur in some autoimmune diseases.Therefore,pDC may serve as an attractive target for therapeutic manipulations of the immune system to treat viral infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases. | TANG Fei1,2,DU Qiumei1,2 & LIU Yong-Jun3 1 Center for Infection and Immunity,Institute of Biophysics,Chinese Academy of Sciences,Beijing 100101,China 2 Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences,Beijing 100049,China 3 Department of Immunology and Center for Cancer Immunology Research,University of Texas,M.D.Anderson Cancer Center,Houston,Texas 77030,USA | 2010 | Science China(Life Sciences)2010，53，2： | 23 |
| 8 | Progress in neural plasticity显示文摘One of the properties of the nervous system is the use-dependent plasticity of neural circuits.The structure and function of neural circuits are susceptible to changes induced by prior neuronal activity,as reflected by short-and long-term modifications of synaptic efficacy and neuronal excitability.Regarded as the most attractive cellular mechanism underlying higher cognitive functions such as learning and memory,activity-dependent synaptic plasticity has been in the spotlight of modern neuroscience since 1973 when activity-induced long-term potentiation(LTP) of hippocampal synapses was first discovered.Over the last 10 years,Chinese neuroscientists have made notable contributions to the study of the cellular and molecular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity,as well as of the plasticity beyond synapses,including activity-dependent changes in intrinsic neuronal excitability,dendritic integration functions,neuron-glia signaling,and neural network activity.This work highlight some of these significant findings. | POO Mu-Ming | 2010 | Science China(Life Sciences)2010，53，3： | 21 |
| 9 | Clostridium butyricum alleviates intestinal low-grade inflammation in TNBS-induced irritable bowel syndrome in mice by regulating functional status of lamina propria dendritic cells显示文摘BACKGROUND Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common functional gastroenterological diseases characterized by abnormal visceral sensitivity and lowgrade inflammation. The role of Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) in reducing intestinal low-grade inflammation via immune pathways has been well defined. However, the detailed mechanisms of the effects of C. butyricum on intestinal mucosal immunity, especially on immune cells of the lamina propria, remain unclear. Dendritic cells (DCs), which are important immune cells, secrete proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and others) and express T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-3 (TIM3), promoting proliferation and activation of DCs, and mediating Th1 and Th17 inflammatory responses. AIM To investigate the role of DCs in the development of IBS in a rat model and to understand the regulation of DCs after C. butyricum intervention. METHODS An IBS animal model was established using C57BL/6 mice, and C. butyricum was continuously administered via the intragastric route to simulate different intestinal immune states. Intestinal visceral hypersensitivity and histopathology were assessed using the abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) test and hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining, respectively. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) and TIM3 was analyzed by Western blot analysis and real-time PCR. Flow cytometry was applied to analyze the quantity, function, and membrane molecule TIM3 of the lamina propria dendritic cells (LPDCs). The regulatory effect of C. butyricum was verified in bone marrowderived dendritic cells by in vitro experiments. RESULTS The secretion of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) in mice with IBS was significantly increased compared with that of the control group, which suggested that the intestinal mucosa in mice with IBS was in a low-grade inflammatory state. The expression of CD11C+CD80+ and CD11c+TIM3+ in intestinal LPDCs in mice with IBS increased significantly. Meanwhile, the cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) were significantly reduced after the intervention with probiotic C. butyricum. The amount and function of LPDCs and the TIM3 on the surface of the LPDCs were decreased with the alleviation of the intestinal inflammatory response. CONCLUSION The results suggest that C. butyricum regulates the amount and functional status of LPDCs in the intestinal mucosa of mice with IBS, and therefore modulates the local immune response in the intestine. | Qin Zhao Wen-Rong Yang Xiao-Hong Wang Gai-Qin Li Lei-Qi Xu Xiao Cui Yang Liu Xiu-Li Zuo | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019，25，36： | 20 |
| 10 | Intestinal antigen-presenting cells in mucosal immune homeostasis:Crosstalk between dendritic cells,macrophages and B-cells显示文摘The intestinal immune system maintains a delicate balance between immunogenicity against invading pathogens and tolerance of the commensal microbiota.Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)involves a breakdown in tolerance towards the microbiota.Dendritic cells(DC),macrophages(MΦ)and B-cells are known as professional antigen-presenting cells(APC)due to their specialization in presenting processed antigen to T-cells,and in turn shaping types of T-cell responses generated.Intestinal DC are migratory cells,unique in their ability to generate primary T-cell responses in mesenteric lymph nodes or Peyer’s patches,whilst MΦand B-cells contribute to polarization and differentiation of secondary T-cell responses in the gut lamina propria.The antigen-sampling function of gut DC and MΦenables them to sample bacterial antigens from the gut lumen to determine types of T-cell responses generated.The primary function of intestinal B-cells involves their secretion of large amounts of immunoglobulin A,which in turn contributes to epithelial barrier function and limits immune responses towards to microbiota.Here,we review the role of all three types of APC in intestinal immunity,both in the steady state and in inflammation,and how these cells interact with one another,as well as with the intestinal microenvironment,to shape mucosal immune responses.We describe mechanisms of maintaining intestinal immune tolerance in the steady state but also inappropriate responses of APC to components of the gut microbiota that contribute to pathology in IBD. | Elizabeth R Mann Xuhang Li | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，29： | 19 |
| 11 | Emergence of immunotherapy as a novel way to treat hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Tumor immunity proceeds through multiple processes, which consist of antigen presentation by antigen presenting cells(APCs) to educate effector cells and destruction by the effector cytotoxic cells. However, tumor immunity is frequently repressed at tumor sites. Malignantly transformed cells rarely survive the attack by the immune system, but cells that do survive change their phenotypes to reduce their immunogenicity. The resultant cells evade the attack by the immune system and form clinically discernible tumors. Tumor microenvironments simultaneously contain a wide variety of immune suppressive molecules and cells to dampen tumor immunity. Moreover, the liver microenvironment exhibits immune tolerance to reduce aberrant immune responses to massively-exposed antigens via the portal vein, and immune dysfunction is frequently associated with liver cirrhosis, which is widespread in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) patients. Immune therapy aims to reduce tumor burden, but it is also expected to prevent non-cancerous liver lesions from progressing to HCC, because HCC develops or recurs from noncancerous liver lesions with chronic inflammatory states and/or cirrhosis and these lesions cannot be cured and/or eradicated by local and/or systemic therapies. Nevertheless, cancer immune therapy should augment specific tumor immunity by using two distinct measures: enhancing the effector cell functions such as antigen presentation capacity of APCs and tumor cell killing capacity of cytotoxic cells, and reactivating the immune system in immune-suppressive tumor microenvironments. Here, we will summarize the current status and discuss the future perspective on immune therapy for HCC. | Naofumi Mukaida Yasunari Nakamoto | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，17： | 13 |
| 12 | Combination treatment with comprehensive cryoablation and immunotherapy in metastatic hepatocellular cancer显示文摘AIM: To retrospectively assess the effect of comprehensive cryosurgery (ablation of intraand extra-hepatic tumors) plus dendritic cell-cytokine-induced killer cell immunotherapy in metastatic hepatocellular cancer. METHODS: We divided 45 patients into cryo-immunotherapy (21 patients), cryotherapy (n = 12), immunotherapy (n = 5) and untreated (n = 7) groups. Overall survival (OS) after diagnosis of metastatic hepatocellular cancer was assessed after an 8-year follow-up. RESULTS: Median OS was higher following cryo-immu-notherapy (32 mo) or cryotherapy (17.5 mo; P < 0.05) than in the untreated group (3 mo) and was higher in the cryo-immunotherapy group than in the cryotherapy group (P < 0.05). In the cryo-immunotherapy group, median OS was higher after multiple treatments (36.5 mo) than after a single treatment (21 mo; P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Cryotherapy and, especially, cryoimmunotherapy significantly increased OS in metastatic hepatocellular cancer patients. Multiple cryo-immunotherapy was associated with a better prognosis than single cryo-immunotherapy. | Li-Zhi Niu Jia-Liang Li Jian-Ying Zeng Feng Mu Meng-Tian Liao Fei Yao Li Li Chun-Yan Liu Ji-Bing Chen Jian-Sheng Zuo Ke-Cheng Xu | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013，19，22： | 13 |
| 13 | Recognition of HBV antigens and HBV DNA by dendritic cells显示文摘BACKGROUND:Hepatitis B virus(HBV)is a hepatotropic, noncytopathic,DNA virus which can cause acute and chronic infection.Viral persistence is associated with a weak or absent specific immune responses to HBV,particularly the cellular immune response.Dendritic cells(DCs)are professional antigen-presenting cells with a unique T cell stimulatory aptitude that play a crucial role in the instruction of adaptive immune responses upon infection.An impaired function of DCs was suggested by recent studies to account for the T and B cell hyporesponsiveness in chronic HBV infection.This review summarizes recent insights into the recognition of HBV antigens by DCs. DATA SOURCES:Studies were identified by searching MEDLINE and/or PubMed for articles using the key words'hepatitis B virus (HBV)','dendritic cells','C-type lectins','mannose receptor', 'toll-like receptor',and'dendritic cell-specific intercellular-adhesion-molecule-3 grabbing nonintegrin(DC-SIGN)'up to December 2009.Additional papers were identified by a manual search of the references from the key articles. RESULTS:DCs play an important role in the progress of hepatitis B,especially in the recognition of HBV.There are three main ways of recognition of HBV antigens by DCs. First,HBV DNA can be recognized by DCs through toll-like receptor 9(TLR9)which activates the NF-κB signal pathway and p38 MAPK to up-regulate the expression of interferon (IFN)regulatory factor 7(IRF-7)in a manner independent of type I IFN signaling,resulting in secretion of type I IFN and inflammatory cytokines,and induction of DC maturation and the adaptive immune response.Second,HBc/HBeAg cannot be recognized by DCs,but DNA or ssRNA encapsulated within HBcAg can be internalized by DCs through TLRs.Third,HBsAg can be internalized by DCs through the mannose receptor,which lacks the ability to induce DC maturation without the assistance of DC-SIGN.Meanwhile,there is some cross-talk among the three mechanisms,which induces an effective anti-viral response or HBV persistence. CONCLUSIONS:On the basis of these recognition processes, methods have been used to enhance the efficacy of DC-based vaccine against HBV and have been useful in the clinical application of HBV vaccine therapy.But the interactions between HBV antigens/HBV DNA and DCs are not clear, and cross-talk between TLRs and various ligands makes HBV antigen recognition by DCs more complicated.More efforts should be made to define the mechanisms and develop effective vaccines and therapies. | Cui, Guang-Ying Diao, Hong-Yan | 2010 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2010，9，6： | 11 |
| 14 | Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma of the liver:unusual presentation of a rare tumor and literature review显示文摘BACKGROUND:Hepatic follicular dendritic cell (FDC) sarcoma is an extremely rare neoplasm.Most commonly,FDC sarcoma presents as a solitary mass in lymph nodes,however,several extra-nodal locations have been identified.METHODS:We report a case of a 53-year-old female who presented with symptoms of abdominal pain,fever,anemia,and jaundice.After an extensive review of the literature,we have found only 12 cases of hepatic FDC sarcoma.RESULTS:The tumor was 11.5 cm in diameter and composed of spindle and epithelioid cells with ovoid nuclei and associated with mixed inflammatory infiltrate.Immunohistochemical stains were positive for CD35 and CD21.The patient underwent a left hepatic lobectomy.CONCLUSIONS:Liver follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is a very rare tumor.Most cases present with abdominal pain and weight loss,and most of them can be managed by hepatic resection with excellent short-term outcomes. | Paulo N Martins Sanjay Reddy Ann-Britt Martins Marcelo Facciuto | 2011 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2011，10，4： | 11 |
| 15 | Role of Toll-like receptors in Helicobacter pylori infection and immunity显示文摘The gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infects the stomachs of approximately half of the world's population. Although infection induces an immune response that contributes to chronic gastric inflammation, the response is not sufficient to eliminate the bacterium. H. pylori infection causes peptic ulcers, gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. Disease outcome is linked to the severity of the host inflammatory response. Gastric epithelial cells represent the first line of innate immune defence against H. pylori, and respond to infection by initiating numerous cell signalling cascades, resulting in cytokine induction and the subsequent recruitment of inflamma-tory cells to the gastric mucosa. Pathogen recognition receptors of the toll-like receptor(TLR) family mediate many of these cell signalling events. This review dis-cusses recent findings on the role of various TLRs in the recognition of H. pylori in distinct cell types, describes the TLRs responsible for the recognition of individual H. pylori components and outlines the influence of innate immune activation on the subsequent development of the adaptive immune response. The mechanistic iden-tification of host mediators of H. pylori-induced patho-genesis has the potential to reveal drug targets and opportunities for therapeutic intervention or prevention of H. pylori-associated disease by means of vaccines or immunomodulatory therapy. | Sinéad M Smith | 2014 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pathophysiology2014，5，3： | 11 |
| 16 | Immunotherapy for colorectal cancer显示文摘The incidence of colorectal cancer(CRC)is on the rise,and the prognosis for patients with recurrent or metastatic disease is extremely poor.Although chemotherapy and radiation therapy can improve survival rates,it is imperative to integrate alternative strategies such as immunotherapy to improve outcomes for patients with advanced CRC.In this review,we will discuss the effect of immunotherapy for inducing cytotoxic T lymphocytes and the major immunotherapeutic approaches for CRC that are currently in clinical trials,including peptide vaccines,dendritic cell-based cancer vaccines,whole tumor cell vaccines,viral vector-based cancer vaccines,adoptive cell transfer therapy,antibody-based cancer immunotherapy,and cytokine therapy.The possibility of combination therapies will also be discussed along with the challenges presented by tumor escape mechanisms. | Shigeo Koido Toshifumi Ohkusa Sadamu Homma Yoshihisa Namiki Kazuki Takakura Keisuke Saito Zensho Ito Hiroko Kobayashi Mikio Kajihara Kan Uchiyama Seiji Arihiro Hiroshi Arakawa Masato Okamoto Jianlin Gong Hisao Tajiri | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013，19，46： | 11 |
| 17 | Electroacupuncture treatment improves motor function and neurological outcomes after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury显示文摘Electroacupuncture(EA)has been widely used for functional restoration after stroke.However,its role in post-stroke rehabilitation and the associated regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood.In this study,we applied EA to the Zusanli(ST36)and Quchi(LI11)acupoints in rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion.We found that EA effectively increased the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and its receptor tyrosine kinase B,synapsin-1,postsynaptic dense protein 95,and microtubule-associated protein 2 in the ischemic penumbra of rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion.Moreover,EA greatly reduced the expression of myelin-related inhibitors Nogo-A and NgR in the ischemic penumbra.Tyrosine kinase B inhibitor ANA-12 weakened the therapeutic effects of EA.These findings suggest that EA can improve neurological function after middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion,possibly through regulating the activity of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor/tyrosine kinase B signal pathway.All procedures and experiments were approved by the Animal Research Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,China(approval No.PZSHUTCM200110002)on January 10,2020. | Si-Si Li Xu-Yun Hua Mou-Xiong Zheng Jia-Jia Wu Zhen-Zhen Ma Xiang-Xin Xing Jie Ma Chun-Lei Shan Jian-Guang Xu | 2022 | Neural Regeneration Research2022，17，7： | 10 |
| 18 | Curcumin improves regulatory T cells in gut-associated lymphoid tissue of colitis mice显示文摘AIM: To explore the probable pathway by which curcumin(Cur) regulates the function of Treg cells by observing the expression of costimulatory molecules of dendritic cells(DCs).METHODS: Experimental colitis was induced by administering 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid(TNBS)/ethanol solution. Forty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal, TNBS + Cur, TNBS + mesalazine(Mes) and TNBS groups. The mice in the TNBS + Cur and TNBS +Mes groups were treated with Cur and Mes, respectively, while those in the TNBS group were treated with physiological saline for 7 d. After treatment, the curative effect of Cur was evaluated by colonic weight, colonic length, weight index of the colon, and histological observation and score. The levels of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cells(Treg cells) and costimulatory molecules of DCs were measured by flow cytometry. Also, related cytokines were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: Cur alleviated inflammatory injury of the colonic mucosa, decreased colonic weigh and histological score, and restored colonic length. The number of Treg cells was increased, while the secretion of TNF-α, IL-2, IL-6, IL-12 p40, IL-17 and IL-21 and the expression of costimulatory molecules(CD205, CD54 [ICAM-1], TLR4, CD252[OX40 L], CD256 [RANK] and CD254 [RANK L]) of DCs were notably inhibited in colitis mice treated with Cur.CONCLUSION: Cur potentially modulates activation of DCs to enhance the suppressive functions of Treg cells and promote the recovery of damaged colonic mucosa in inflammatory bowel disease. | Hai-Mei Zhao Rong Xu Xiao-Ying Huang Shao-Min Cheng Min-Fang Huang Hai-Yang Yue Xin Wang Yong Zou Ai-Ping Lu Duan-Yong Liu | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016，22，23： | 9 |
| 19 | Immunology of tuberculosis显示文摘Various T cells and macrophages as well as cytokines are involved in the immunopathogenesis of tuberculosis(TB). A better understanding of immunology of TB can not only lead to the discovery of new immunodiagnostic tools, accelerate and facilitate the assessment of new therapeutic methods, but also find new treatment regimens. In this highlight topic we cover the latest developments in the role of T cells, macrophages, Natural killer(NK) cells, invariant NK T(iN KT) cells and γδ T cells with TB infection. Histologically, TB displays exudative inflammation, proliferative inflammation and productive inflammation depending on the time course. T cells first recognize antigen within the mycobacterially-infected lung, and then activate, differentiate, but the first T cell activation occurs in the draining lymph nodes of the lung. When protective T cells reach sufficient numbers, they can stop bacterial growth. Except for T cells, neutrophils also participate actively in defense against early-phase TB. NK cells are innate lymphocytes which are a first line of defense against mycobacterial infection. Human NK cells use the NKp46, NCRs and NKG2 D receptors to lyse Mycobacterium TB-infected monocytes and alveolar macrophages. NK cells produce not only interferon-γ, but also interleukin(IL)-22, which is induced by IL-15 and DAP-10. iN KT cells show different phenotypes and functions. Many iN KT cells are CD4+,few iN KT cells are CD8+, while an additional fraction of iN KT cells are negative for both CD4 and CD8. γδ T cells represent an early innate defense in antimycobacterial immunity. Studies done in humans and animal models have demonstrated complex patterns of γδ T cell immune responses during chronic TB. Human alveolar macrophages and monocytes can serve as antigen presentation cells for γδ T cells. Furthermore, the predominance of Vγ9Vδ2 T cells in TB has been confirmed. | Qing Zhang Isamu Sugawara | 2012 | World Journal of Experimental Medicine2012，2，4： | 8 |
| 20 | Determination of interface width value in phase-field simulation of dendritic growth into undercooled melt显示文摘The influence of the interface width value on the simulation results and its dependence upon thermo-physical parameters in the phase-field simulation of dendritic growth into undercooled melt are investigated. After choosing the reasonable interface width value, the tip velocities of dendritic growth in Ni melt under different undercoolings are calculated and compared with the experimental data in order to benchmark our results. It is shown that the reasonable interface width value, which is determined by the undercooling, anisotropy, interface kinetic, and thermal diffusivity, has to be taken low enough, and the agreement of our results with experimental data verifies that the credible results can be achieved as long as the interface width value is adequately low. This paper provides the basis of determining interface width value in simulating dendritic growth into undercooled melt by phase-field approach. | YU Yanmei, YANG Gencang , ZHAO Dawen and LU Yili(State Key Laboratory of Solidification Processing, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an 710072, China) | 2002 | Progress in Natural Science:Materials International2002，12，3： | 8 |
