T-lymphocytes from focused ultrasound ablation subsequently mediate cellular antitumor immunity after adoptive cell transfer immunotherapy.

Background: Our previous studies found that high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) stimulated tumor-specific T cells in a mouse H tumor model, and adoptive transfer of the T cells from HIFU-treated mice could subsequently elicit stronger inhibition on the growth and progression of the implanted tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of T cells from focused ultrasound ablation in HIFU-mediated immunomodulation.

Methods: Sixty H tumor-bearing mice were treated by either HIFU or sham-HIFU, and 30 naïve syngeneic mice served as controls.

Specific antitumour immunity of HIFU-activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes after adoptive transfusion in tumour-bearing mice.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the specific anti-tumour immunity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) activated by high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) after adoptive transfer in a murine tumour model.

Materials And Methods: H22 tumour-bearing mice were treated by either HIFU or sham-HIFU, while naïve syngeneic mice were used as controls. They were sacrificed and the spleens were harvested 14 days after HIFU.

[Study on relationship between alfalfa canopy spectral reflectance and leaf water content].

In the present study, alfalfa canopy reflectance was researched at alfalfa squaring period under different irrigation amount at the hutubi county grassland ecological station. Determining the spectral diagnostic model of alfalfa leaf moisture content was determined by spectrometry. The results showed that (1) The spectral reflectance of alfalfa canopy gradually decreases with the increase in the leaf water content in the near infrared.

High-intensity focused ultrasound tumor ablation activates autologous tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes.

Previous studies have shown that high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation can enhance host antitumor immune response, though the mechanism is still unknown. In the present study, we investigated whether HIFU ablation could activate tumor-specific T lymphocytes and then induce antitumor cellular immunity. We studied 70 C57BL/6J mice bearing the H(22) tumor; they were randomly divided into a HIFU group and a sham-HIFU group.
