Two isolates of Plasmodium jalcipanm from Hainan Province were cloned by limiting dilution method and eight clones were established. Some characteristics including drug sensitivity and antigenicity of these clones were observed. The results showed that the established clones were different from each other in chloroquine sensitivity and antigenicity. The ID50 of chloroquin3e against 6 clones from isolate Fcc-7801 varied between 60.60 and 13.08 nmol/L The ID50 of chloroquine against 2 clones from isolate Fcc-1 were 93.63 and 49.64 nmol/L, respectively. According to the indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) Teactivity of these clones with a panal of murine anti-gpl95 McAbs, 8 clones could be divided into 5-serotypes, 3 of which were consistent with the Ⅴ , Ⅵ, Ⅶ serotypes devided by J. S. McBride (1985).

Objective:To study the effect of IL-15 eukaryotic expression plasmid on the humoral immune responses to HBV surface antigen protein vaccine.Methods:Had constructed two of IL-15 eukaryotic expression plasmides.One is the eukaryotic expression plasmid of the IL-15 whole sequence,the other is the chimeric eukaryotic expression plasmid of the IL-2 signal peptide and IL-15 mature peptide sequence(IL-2s-15).The bioactivities of the expression products of the two plasmids were identified by CTLL-2 proliferation assay.Results:After IL-15 plasmid co-immunized with HBsAg,the titer of anti-HBsIgG was much higher than that of control( P 0.05),however,the anti-HBsIgG2a/IgG1 ratio was higher than that of control.Conclusion:IL-15 expression plasmids effect differently on the immune responses induced by protein vaccine.

Objective To examine whether hantavirus Z37 envelope glycoprotein genes G1 and G2 recombinants could elicit humoral immune responses in mice. Methods We vaccinated BALB/C mice with plasmid pcDNA3.1 G1 and pcDNA3.1 G2 respectively by intramuscular and gene gun inoculation. Serum anti hantavirus antibodies were detected by IFA and neutralizing antibodies (NAb) were detected by plaque reduction neutralization test with immunoperoxidase staining. The mice given intramuscular inoculation were divided into 3 groups, each group containing 5 mice: groupⅠas control inoculated with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1 ; groupⅡ with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1 G1; group Ⅲ with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1 G2. Each mouse was immunized three times. 4 weeks after primary vaccination, 2 boosts were given at 3 week intervals. The mice given gene gun inoculation were divided into 3 groups, each group containing 3 mice: groupⅠ as control with 1.5 ?g pcDNA3.1; group Ⅱ with 1.5 ?g pcDNA3.1 G1; group Ⅲ with 1.5 ?g pcDNA3.1 G2.Each mouse was immunized two times. 4 weeks after primary vaccination, 1 boost was given. Results 1. In mice given intramuscular inoculation, serum anti hantavirus antibodies were detected 3 of 5 in group Ⅱ, 2 of 5 in group Ⅲ.IFA titers 1∶20~1∶80. NAb were detected 1 of 5 in group Ⅱ, 2 of 5 in group Ⅲ. NAb titers 1∶10~1∶20. 2.In mice given gene gun inoculation, serum anti hantavirus antibodies and NAb were detected in all experimental group mice, IFA titers 1∶20~1∶320, NAb titers≥1∶10. Conclusions Genetic immunization with HV Z37envelope glycoprotein genes G1 and G2 recombinants could elicit effective humoral immune response in mice.

BACKGROUND:How to obtain a sufficient number of cells is one of the key issues in the celltransplantation therapy, and studies have shown that stem cellproliferation can be promoted by reasonable stimulus.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate reduced glutathione effects on biological characteristics of human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:The cells were divided into two groups:the control group consisted of the normal human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells, and in the experimental group, human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells were treated with 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At days 5, 7, 9, cells treated with 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione showed higher absorbance values than those in the control group (P<0.05). Flow cytometry showed reduced glutathione had no effects on CD29, CD44, CD45, CD105 expression. Real-time PCR results showed reduced glutathione was capable of promoting extracellular signal-regulated kinase mRNA expression (P<0.05). Findings from this study showed that 0.15 g/L reduced glutathione can promote the proliferation of human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective To investigate the appropriate compatibility of appropriate compatibility of sevoflurane and propofol for patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion in order to protect their cognitive function.Methods Eighty patients, 41 males, 39 females, aged 65-75 years, BMI 17-26 kg/m2, ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, scheduled to undergo elective posterior lumbar interbody fusion, were to be scored according to Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), mini mental state examination (MMSE), dementia scale (CDR) and daily living ability scale (ADL) to identify patients with MCI before the surgery.They were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n=20 each) using a random number table: TCI propofol 2.0-2.5 μg/ml group (group P), TCI propofol 1.2 μg/ml+sevoflurane 0.6 MAC group (group PS1), TCI propofol 0.6 μg/ml+sevoflurane 0.9 MAC group (group PS2), 1.0-1.5 MAC sevoflurane group (group S).MoCA and MMSE were used to evaluate the cognitive function of patients 1 d before the operation (T0), after patients become wide-awake (T1), 3 d and 7 d after operation (T2 and T3).Apolipoprotein J (ApoJ) concentration related to cognitive function in blood samples, which were drawn at T0-T3 would be measured with ELISA method.Results Compared with T0, the scores of MMSE and MoCA in four groups decreased significantly (P<0.05) at T1, the scores of MMSE and MoCA in group S decreased significantly (P<0.05) at T2;compared with T1, the score of MMSE in the four groups increased significantly at T2, T3 (P<0.05).The scores of MMSE at T1, T3 in group S decreased significantly compared with groups P, PS1 and PS2 (P<0.05).The scores of MoCA at T2, T3 in group S decreased significantly compared with groups P, PS1 and PS2 (P<0.05).Compared with T0, the concentration of plasma ApoJ in the four groups increased significantly at T1 (P<0.05).Compared with T1, the concentration of plasma ApoJ in the four groups decreased significantly at T2 and T3 (P<0.05).Compared with group PS1, the concentration of plasma ApoJ at T1, T3 increased significantly in groups S and group PS2 (P<0.05).Conclusion TCI propofol 1.2 μg/ml combined with 0.6 MAC sevoflurane group is the appropriate compatibility of sevoflurane and propofol for patients with MCI undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion,because it has less negative influence on cognitive function and lower concentration of plasma ApoJ.

Objective To explore the application of Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel in colonoscopy examination. Methods 1000 patients received colonoscopy examination were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 500 cases in each. Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel was applied on anal region in the experimental group before endoscopy for perianal anesthesia and lubrication. Paraffin oil was used in the control group to lubricate perianal and enteroscopy. The success rate of primary insertion, visual analogue pain score (VAS) score, examination time and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results In the experimental group, the success rate of primary insertion (95%) was higher than that of the control group (76%), and the pain score was lower than that of the control group.The examination time was shortened, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions Oxybuprocaine Hydrochloride Gel applied to colonoscopy can effectively reduce the patient's pain and discomfort, improve the success rate of primary insertion, shorten the examination time. And the method is worthy of clinical popularization and application.
