Until recently,the paradigm held that na?ve T cells differentiated into distinct subsets under the guidance of environmental cues(e.g.,cytokines) and that once polarized,these cells were committed to a particular functional state. However,the existence of transdifferentiated T cell populations,which express signature transcription factors and cytokines associated with more than one Th subset,challenges the immutability of T helper subsets and suggests that plasticity is a feature of multifaceted immune responses. How this process impacts immune dysregulation in diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD) and the machinery that underlies this process is far from fully understood. Interleukin(IL)-17 secreting helper T(Th17) cells have been heavily implicated in tissue-specific immune pathology including murine models of IBD,human Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Plasticity within this subset is suggested by the existence of IL-17 secreting cells,which,can also secrete interferon-γ,the signature cytokine for Th1 cells or,can co-express the anti-inflammatory transcription factor forkhead box p3,a signature transcription factor of regulatory T cells. In this review we mainly discuss evidence for Th17 plasticity,mechanisms,which govern it,and highlight the potential to therapeutically target this process in human IBD.展开更多

Methods: Two hundred and thirty four patients with lymph node metastases who underwent curative surgery for colon cancer between 1999 and 2005 were enrolled in the present study. Firstly, clinicopathological factors and survival data, were analyzed to determine prognostic factors related to cancer-specific survival. Secondly, we examined the effectiveness of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy based upon these prognostic factors. Results: The multivariate analysis revealed that differentiation (P = 0.03, Hazard ratio = 2.50), lymphatic invasion (P = 0.02, Hazard ratio = 3.23) and the TNM classification, 7th?edition (P = 0.04, Hazard ratio = 1.94) were found to be significant independent prognostic factors. Among the patients classified as TNM IIIA, the recurrence-free survival rates were extremely good. Among the patients classified as IIIB and IIIC, there was no significant difference between the patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Conclusion: The present study suggests that the patients with Stage IIIA colon cancer may not require postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. The addition of oxaliplatin to 5-FU should be considered for the patients with Stage IIIB and IIIC colon cancer, for whom the prognoses are far from satisfactory.展开更多
