Methods： The E J-derived HSP70 co-cultured with DC from the healthy volunteers＇ PBMC, along with the crude lysate （the supematant before HSP70 purification） from EJ cells were used as the experimental groups and DC not pulsed by any tumor cells antigen were the blank control. The autologous T-lymphocytes were added into the above various DC groups, and after incubation, the stimulation indexes （SI） and interferon-y （IFN-γ） were detected to evaluate the immune activities of various DC groups. The killing effects of CTL to target cells, EJ and Hela cells, were determined with 51^Cr releasing test. Results： Both DC/HSP70 and DC/the crude lysate could effectively activate CTL in vitro and kill target cells EJ. The killing effect of DC/HSP70 to EJ was much stronger than DC/the crude lysate （the supernatant before HSP70 purification） （P 〈 0.05）. DC without any tumor cell antigens had a lower killing power to EJ. Meanwhile, DC/ HSP70 had little killing power to Hela non-relevant to bladder tumor histopathologically as compared with EJ cells （P 〈 0.05）. Conclusion： The DC pulsed by HSP70 derived from the autologous tumor cells could induce a peptide complexes specific CTL response to tumor cells, and the CTL response induced by the DC/HSP70 was stronger, which display the basis of the possible clinical application of DC/HSP70 for bladder tumor.展开更多

However, considering that GCP collection is sometimes a difficult, time-consuming and expensive task with high resolution (HR) data in remote and harsh environments, today unmanned aerial vehicle based remote sensing (UAVRS) is frequently used in geological disaster emergency monitoring and rescuing for its great advantage in collecting timely onsite images. In this paper, for evaluating the feasibility of the UAVRS in disaster emergency and high cut slope safety monitoring, the digital surface model (DSM) without GCPs based on Structure from Motion (SfM) is accessed, and results showed that the geometric accuracy of DSM was smaller than 1 percent, which prove the usefulness of DSM based on UAVRS in emergency. Comparing to normal disaster emergency, the method without GCPs can be more efficient and save the disaster emergency time by neglecting GCPs measurement.展开更多
