Objective In order to provide scientific evidence for revealing the pathophysiological changes, levels of the humoral and cellular immunity and cytokines in elderly patients with bacterial pneumonia were determined. Methods The changes of immunological markers including IgA, IgG, IgM,C3, C4,T cell subpopulation (CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +) and CD4 +/CD8 +, IL 2, IL 6, IL 8, TNF ? were examined for the elderly bacterial pneumonia group(BPG), the aged control group(ACG) and the young control group(YCG). Results The level of CD3 +〔(53 90?7 10)% vs (62 67?6 08)%〕, CD4 +〔(33 85?4 69)% vs (3 57?3 40)%〕, IL 2〔(4 09?0 69) ?g/L vs (6 72?0 52) ?g/L〕 and IL 8〔(0 28?0 07) ?g/L vs (0 39?0 09) ?g/L〕 in ACG were significantly lower than those in YCG. The levels of IgA, IgG, IgM, C3, CD8 +, IL 8〔(0 33?0 08) ?g/L vs (0 28?0 07) ?g/L〕, and TNF ?〔(1 25?0 23) ?g/L vs (1 10?0 20) ?g/L〕in BPG were significantly higher than those in ACG; and in BPG the levels of IgG, IgM, C3, IL 8 and TNF ? were significantly higher than those in YCG. However, the levels of CD3 +, CD4 + and the ratio CD4 +/CD8 +in BPG were markedly lower than those in YCG;the IL 2(2 730?0 612 ?g/L) was much lower than that of ACG〔(6 72?0 52) ?g/L〕 and YCG〔(4 09?0 69) ?g/L〕, respectively. Conclusions The occurrence and the progress of bacterial pneumonia in the elderly are related to the immunological functioning including the excessive humoral immunity, the super activation of complement system, the dysequilibrium of T cellular immunoloregulation network and the super excretion of inflammatory cytokines.

Asialogycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) is a specific receptor of mammalian hepatocytes,exclusively up-take the glycoprotein in the blood.The number of ASGPR correlates significantly with liver function,and the reduction of the number of ASGPR suggest liver dysfunction.Decreased ASGPR in patients with liver cirrhosis or portal hypertension or hepatocellar carcinoma,lead to varying degrees of liver dysfunction,which made it more susceptible to post operative complications.liver ASGPR scintigraphy with Technetium-99 m DTPA-galactosyl human serum albumin (99m Tc-GSA),combinating with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) technology can assess the functional reserve of remnant liver and predict incidence of postoperative complications,then assist to evaluate the use fulness for clinically surgical decisions.Current situation and progress of 99mTc-GSA SPECT imaging in hepatic surgery were reviewed in the paper.

Tumor metastasis and recurrence had become a key to curative effect and long-term survival,and it's hotspot of current clinical oncology research.Differential expression of proteomics between cancer and normal tissue can be used for discovering new tumor markers.Clinical detection of liver cancer-related protein molecules was useful to monitor and assess early diagnosis,recurrence and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.Herein,this article reviewed the research progression of protein molecules in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) in the treatment of immune throm-bocytopenia(ITP) .Methods 230 cases of ITP were collected in this hospital from December 2011 to December 2012 and randomly divided into two groups with 115 cases in each group .Among them ,the control group was treated by the conventional treatment of open splenectomy(OS) ,while the observation group was treated by LS .The differences of the operative time ,hospitalization dura-tion ,intraoperative blood loss and platelet count ,clinical effects and the occurrence situation of adverse reactions were compared be-tween the two kinds of operation method .Results The operative time and the length of hospital stay in the observation group were significantly shortened compared with the control group (t=14 .706 ,t=13 .625 ,P<0 .05);intraoperative blood loss was significant-ly decreased(t=18 .238 ,P<0 .05) and the platelet count was significantly increased (t=17 .248 ,P<0 .05);the total effective rate of the observation group was 96 .52% ,which was significantly higher than 86 .09% of the control group ,(χ2 =9 .35 ,P<0 .05);the adverse reaction rate and the recurrence rate in the observation group were 6 .09% and 6 .96% respectively ,which were significantly lower than 10 .43% and 19 .13% in the control group(χ2 =8 .35 ,χ2 =8 .75 ,P<0 .05) .Conclusion LS for treating immune throm-bocytopenia has definite efficacy with high effective rate ,low adverse reactions and low recurrence rate .

Objective To construct the prokaryotic vector and to express a novel candidate gene IDD01 associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) for its functional study. Methods The open reading frame (ORF) of IDD01, amplified from HCC tissue by RT PCR, was inserted into the expression vector pMAL c2X. The recombinant vector was transformed into E. coli TB1, and the expression products were analyzed by SDS PAGE. Results The length of PCR product was about 770 bp. The restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing conformed that the gene segment was correctly inserted into the vector. SDS PAGE and density scanning indicated that the protein was expressed as a fusion protein with 28 KD of molecular weight and the fusion protein possessed 30.4% of the total bacterial protein. Conclusion The recombinant vector is constructed successfully and IDD01 can be expressed at a high level, which lays a foundation for the further research on the functions of IDD01 gene.

Conclusion:When the pH value of nasal circulatory perfusion liquid of TMP HCl is 7.00, the nasal mucosa absorption is optimal.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the causes of stomal recurrence after laryngectomy and the possibility of surgical management.METHODS The clinical data of 13 cases of stomal recurrence were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS In 13 cases of stomal recurrence after laryngectomy,the survival period of 9 cases treated surgically was longer than that of 4 cases untreated or palliative treatment.CONCLUSION The overall prognosis of stomal recurrence after laryngectomy is poor.A proper surgical treatment in some cases will prolong the patient's lifetime obviously and improve his quality of life.

Objective To detect the levels of plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and investigate its relationship with liver function, ascites and heart structure in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods The levels of plasma NT-proBNP and various clinical and biochemical parameters were determined in 60 patients with liver cirrhosis and 30 healthy controls. Meanwhile Child-Pugh liver function was classified. All people underwent color Doppler echocardiography. Results The level of plasma NT-proBNP was significantly elevated in patients with liver cirrhosis [(38.63±36.05)pmol/L], compared with that of the controls [(7.50±8.25)pmol/L],P<0.01. There was no significant difference in different Child-Pugh class and aseites amount of liver cirrhosis. E/A < 1 and E wave decelerate time (EDT) was in-creased in liver cirrhosis. Conclusion The levels of plasma NT-proBNP in liver cirrhosis are significantly elevated, and related to early impairment of diastolic function. But it does not correlate with liver function and aseites.

Objective To explore the safety of the human bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) after silencing of human leukocyte antigen A2 expression .Methods We divided the cells into three groups:normal cultured cells of the 8th passage served as control group , and hBMSCs after HLA A2 silencing expression of the 5th and 15th passage as experimental groups 1 and 2 ,respectively .The hBMSCs were recultured by sterile methods .The growth curve ,telomerase activation ,and expressions of P27 ,cyclin D2 and cyclin‐dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) were utilized to explore the safety of the hBMSCs induced by LV‐siRNA‐HLA A2 .The BMSCs were transplanted to the subcutaneous layer of nude mice .Tissue types were detected 24 weeks after transplantation . Results The cell curves had no obvious left or right shift in all the groups . The telomerease activation in experimental groups 1 and 2 did not significantly differ from those in control group . The expressions of anti‐oncogene P27 ,cyclin D2 and CDK4 had no obvious difference between the two experimental groups and control group , either . There was only ectopic osteogenesis 24 weeks after the BMSCs (HLA A2 gene silenced ) were transplanted to the subcutaneous layer of the nude mice .Conclusion There was no obvious evidence to support that hBMSCs had undergone change in safety after the silencing of HLA A 2 expression .
