Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(19):-
Objective To pave the way for developing recombinant antiidiotypic antibody(antiId)vaccine of gastric carcinoma by generating phagedisplayed antiId to monoclonal antibody MGd1 directed against the cancer. Methods Balb/c mice were immunized i.p. with MGd1 conjugated with KLH, and mRNA was isolated from the spleens of the immunized mice. VH and VL DNAs of the antibody were amplified separately by RTPCR and assembled into ScFv DNAs with a linker DNA by PCR. The ScFv DNAs were ligated into the phagemid vector pCANTAB5E and the ligated sample was transformed into competent E.coli TG1. The transformed cells were infected with M13KO7 helper phage to yield phage antibody ScFv library. After four rounds of panning to the library with MGd1, the MGd1positive clones were selected by ELISA from the enriched phages. The types of the antiId ScFv displayed on the selected phage clones were preliminary identified by competition ELISA. Results The VH,VL and ScFv DNAs were about 340 bp, 320 bp and 750 bp respectively. After four rounds of panning to the antibody library, 17 MGd1positive phage clones displayed antiId ScFv were selected from 40 enriched phage clones, among which 3 displayed ? or ? type antiId ScFv. Conclusion The successful generation of antiId ScFv to monoclonal antibody MGd1 by recombinant phage antibody library technology might lay a foundation for screening of novel candidate molecules for developing recombinant antiId vaccine of gastric carcinoma.

Objective: To observe the efficacy of acupoint sticking with Jianpi Tongjing Zhitong ointment in the treatment of functional dyspepsia due to liver-qi stagnation and spleen deficiency and its effect on serum 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and ghrelin contents. Methods: One hundred patients with functional dyspepsia due to liver-qi stagnation and spleen deficiency were divided into a treatment group and a control group by the random number table method, with 50 cases in each group. The treatment group received acupoint sticking with Jianpi Tongjing Zhitong ointment and the control group was treated with mosapride citrate orally. Patients were treated for 4 weeks as a course. The therapeutic efficacy was compared after one-course treatment and the differences in gastric emptying rate, and serum 5-HT and ghrelin contents between groups were compared before and after treatment. Results: The total effective rate was 79.6% in the control group and 89.4% in the treatment group, showing significantly different between groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the gastric emptying rate and serum ghrelin content of the two groups increased significantly, and the serum 5-HT content decreased significantly, the intra-group differences were significant (all P<0.01). After treatment, the gastric emptying rate and serum ghrelin content were significantly higher in the treatment group than those in the control group, while the serum 5-HT was significant lower in the treatment group, the inter-group differences were significant (all P<0.05). A negative correlation (r=-0.59) was observed between serum 5-HT content and gastric emptying rate, and a positive correlation (r=0.64) was observed between serum ghrelin content and gastric emptying rate, showing statistical significance (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Acupoint sticking with Jianpi Tongjing Zhitong ointment has a remarkable clinical efficacy in treating patients with functional dyspepsia due to liver-qi stagnation and spleen deficiency and is able to influence the secretion of serum 5-HT and ghrelin. Improving the gastrointestinal motility through the regulation of related brain-gut peptides is suggested as an underlying mechanism for this therapy.

Objective To demonstrate the effect of tumor necrosis factor-α induced protein 8 like-2 (TIPE2) expression in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and its mechanism. Methods A prospective observation was conducted. Thirty-nine patients with ARDS admitted to department of emergency of PLA General Hospital from July 2013 to July 2015 were enrolled, and 35 healthy persons served as control group. The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score within 24 hours after admission, blood gas analysis, procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) were recorded. The mRNA expressions of TIPE2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and myxoma resistance protein 1 (MX1) in plasma were determined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The correlations were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results The mean of APACHE Ⅱ score in 39 patients with ARDS was 25±3, the mean of PCT was (1.85±0.41) μg/L, and the mean of CRP was (18.0±3.0) mg/L. The TIPE2 mRNA expression in PBMC of ARDS patients was significantly down-regulated as compared with that of healthy control group (2-ΔΔCt: 3.28±0.15 vs. 8.87±0.20, P < 0.001), and the MX-1 mRNA expression in plasma was significantly higher than that of healthy control group (2-ΔΔCt: 39.44±0.46 vs. 20.10±0.32, P < 0.001). It was shown by correlation analysis results that the TIPE2 mRNA expression was negatively correlated with MX1 mRNA expression (r = -0.630, P < 0.001), so as APACHE Ⅱ score (r = -0.781, P < 0.001), but no correlation was found between TIPE2 mRNA and PCT as well as CRP (r value was 0.143 and 0.330, respectively, both P > 0.05). The MX1 mRNA expression was positively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score (r = 0.893, P < 0.001), but no correlation was found between MX1 mRNA and PCT as well as CRP (r value was 0.230 and 0.210, respectively, both P > 0.05). Conclusion TIPE2 expression was decreased in ARDS patients, which negatively correlate with disease severity, and indicate TIPE2 might be involved in the pathogenic process of ARDS.

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy of the application of color Doppler sonography (CDS) and computer tomography angiography (CTA) in preoperative perforator identification and flap design and provide theoretical support for the restoration of oral maxillofacial defect with free superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap (SCIAPF). Methods: (1) Preoperative CDS and CTA techniques were performed to map the SCIA perforators of 29 adult patients diagnosed with malignant tumor in the oral maxillofacial head and neck regions. These patients were scheduled for concurrent reconstruction surgery. (2) A diagnostic test was designed to com-pare the CDS and CTA techniques. Results:(1) A total of 18 patients underwent flap preparation. SCIA was not found in one of the pa-tients during surgery, but was observed intra-operatively in the other 17 patients. The average SCIA diameter was 0.69 ± 0.20 mm. (2) The diagnostic test showed a CDS sensitivity of 75.0%, a CDS specificity of 82.4%, and an area under the ROC curve of 0.79. The CTA sensitivity was 75.0%, the specificity was 94.2%, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.85. The diameters measured by CDS and CTA were compared with the diameter measured intra-operatively. Significant differences were observed among the three diame-ters (P<0.05). The average diameter measured by CDS was 0.84 ± 0.14 mm. The average diameter measured by CTA was 1.01 ± 0.19 mm. Conclusion:CDS and CTA are relatively reliable technologies for preoperative detection of perforator vessel. The use of CDS and CTA technology mapping for SCIAPF can provide accurate information about the perforator, including the position of the perforator and the relationship between the peripheral tissues and the caliber of the vessel.

Objective To derive reference limits of cardiac functional parameters (CFP) determined by gated myocardial SPECT imaging, and to analyze the influence of gender, age and weight on CFP. Methods One hundred and seventy-five consecutive outpatients (89 males with age of (48.3±10.7) years and 86 females with age of (49.8±10.4) years) were defined as patients with low-likelihood coronary heart disease (LCHD). All patients underwent adenosine or exercise stress 99Tcm-MIBI G-MPI from February 2008 to April 2011. The EF, EDV and ESV of the left ventricle were measured by quantitative gated SPECT (QGS) software. The reference limits were derived by means of Gaussian distribution or percentiles. The influence of gender, age and weight on CFP was analyzed by multiple regressions for linear models. Two-sample t test was used to analyze data of 2 groups. Parameters between different age groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance. Results The lower reference limit of EF for males was 50%, the upper limit of EDV and ESV was 112 ml and 49 ml respectively. For females, the corresponding reference limits were 54%, 77 ml and 30 ml. Men had higher EDV, ESV (EDV: (75.8±18.3) ml vs (53.3±11.7) ml, t=9.35, P<001; ESV: (27.1±10.9) ml vs (14.3±7.9) ml, t=8.59, P<0.01) and lower EF than women ((65.1±76)% vs (74.7±10.0)%, t=-6.92, P<0.01). The incidence of small hearts in women was 76%(65/86). The gender and age was the primary and secondary predictors of both of EF and ESV, while the body weight was a significantly third predictor for cardiac volume. Patients were dived into different age (≤40 years, 41-49 years, ≥50 years) groups. For males, EDV, ESV and EF were not significantly different among the different age groups (F values: 1.106, 0.954, 1.029, all P>0.05). For females, EDV was not different (F=2408, P>005), while ESV and EF were significantly different among 3 groups (F values: 5.010, 6.229, both P<0.05). Conclusions The CFP determined by G-MPI in LCHD patients are significantly affected by gender and age. The age-related changes of CFP in males are different from those in females.

OBJECTIVETo explore the mechanisms involved in the ligustrazine alleviation of the pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) in patients of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) associated with chronic cor pulmonale (CCP) during exacerbation.
METHODSSeventy patients of COPD and CCP with acute exacerbation were randomly and equally divided into control group and treatment group. The control group received standard treatment with antibiotics, antiasthmatic and expectorant medications, and oxygenation; and the ligustrazine treatment group received ligustrazine treatment (80 mg/d; i.v.; for 2 weeks) in addition to the standard treatment. Before and at the end of 2 week treatment, the clinic responses of the two regimens were evaluated, plasma levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO) were determined; arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2, mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP), outflow tract of right ventricle (RVOT), and internal diameter of right ventricle (RV) were measured.
RESULTSGood clinic benefits were achieved in both the standard and ligustrazine regimens, plasma level of ET-1, values of mPAP, RV and RVOT decreased significantly, plasma level of NO and PaO2 values decreased (all P < 0.01 vs pre-treatment to all parameters). Compared with the control group, ligustrazine greatly enhanced the clinic efficacy from 77.1% to 97.1% (P < 0.05), and also resulted in more significant changes of all these parameters (P < 0.01 vs control group for all parameters). For both groups, the levels of plasma ET-1 were positively correlated with values of mPAP, RVOT, and RV (r = 0.710, 0.853, and 0.766, respectively, all P = 0.000), and negatively correlated with plasma NO and PaO2 (r = - 0.823, and - 0.752, respectively, all P = 0.000).
CONCLUSIONLigustrazine is effective in treating pulmonary artery hypertension during acute exacerbation of COPD and CCP in patients from the plateau area. The observed changes in the plasma levels of NO and ET-1 in response to ligustrazine treatment suggest that ligustrazine may act through the selective effect on pulmonary blood vessels to enhance the synthesis and release of NO and suppress those of ET-1 from lung vascular endothelial cells, thus reducing pulmonary artery pressure and decreasing pulmonary arterial hypertension.
