One pathogenic free-living amoeba, strain W042302 (Fig. 1.), was first isolated from the cooling water of a power plant in Shanghai, in April, 1986. It could result in the deaths of mice, and recovered from the brain tissue of the dead mice. This pathogenic free living amoeba could be induced into trophozoite with two flagellae (Fig. 2.). Protein patterns obtained by PAGE showed twelve bands stained by Coomassie brilliant blue R250. The isoenzyme patterns of both acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase of the amoebic extract exhibit only a single band, while iactate dehydrogenase is devoid of noticeable activity. From the results obtained in the present study, it is inferred that strain W042302 may be belong to Naegleria australiensis.

Objective To investigate and compare the special psychologic characteristics of the post-traumatic epilepsy patients and their spouses.Methods The complete clinical data of 244 patients and their spouses were retrospectively and constractively analyzed. There were two distinct groups because of the etiology: group A including 122 patients of post-traumatic epilepsy and their spouses, and group B including essential epilepsy. Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were used to evaluate the psychologic status of objects.Results All of the single-item score of SCL-90 were significantly higher than the China norm (P<0.01) in both groups, and the score in group A was higher than that in group B. But the characteristics of the abnormal data were diffierent in patient from in spouse. The scores of the post-traumatic patients were higher than that of the spouses in 3 items, and lower in 5 items. Specially the depression and anxiety emotion of the spouses were more obvious than the patients in group A (P<0.01).Conclusion Both the patient and spouse have the conspicuous psychosomatic disorder, and the appearance is diffierent from each other. The psychosomatic disorder of post-traumatic epilepsy patient and spouse is more conspicuous than the essential epilepsy.

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cells(NSCs)are characterized by widely resources,convenient harvesting,easy culture and prone to import and express exogenous genes,which can be served as carriers of gene therapy for neural system disease.OBJECTIVE:To review the application of NSCs in spinal cord injury.METHODS:Databases of PubMed(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed)and Wanfang(http://www.wanfangdata.com.cn)were searched by the correspondence author using key words of "neural stem cells,spinal cord injury,cellular transplantation" both in English and Chinese to retrieve papers concerning isolation,identification,differentiation of NSCs as well as its application in repairing spinal cord injury.A total of 82 documents were initial obtained by computer,after repetitive studies were excluded,23 papers were included in the final analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The NSCs transplantation has been widely used in animal experiments.Currently,the applications of NSCs in repairing spinal cord injury are concentrated on the following aspects:Firstly,cellular replacement therapy,namely,direct transplanting NSCs or activating in vivo NSCs to differentiate into neurons and glial cells,and then integrating transplanted cells with the existed neural cellular structure to cure the disease.Secondly,NSCs were utilized as gene carriers,which carrying target gene to body and reach the aims of cellular replacement and gene therapy.Thirdly,autologous NSCs were induced differentiation for self neural repair via studying growth factors and cytokines.

Objective To evaluate the treatment and prevention measure for intrahepatie diffuse biliary stricture after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with intrahepatic diffuse biliary stricture after orthotopic liver transplantation from January 2002 to December 2007 in Beijing Center for Organ Transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. A prospective clinic study was launched in order to prevent microthrombosis in the microcireulation of bile duct during warm and cold iscbemia in non-heart-beating donor since January 2006. Urokinase perfusion of the artery system was conducted during graft harvesting and reperfusion at the end of graft trimming to reduce the incidence of intrahepatic diffuse biliary stricture. Results Among 21 patients with intrahepatie diffuse and mixed type biliary stricture, 16 patients underwent liver retransplantation, and the other 5 patients died of primary graft failure while waiting for retransplantation. The incidence of intrahepatic diffuse biiiary stricture was 5.9% in non-urokinase perfusion group. On the contrary, the incidence rate of intrahepatie diffuse biliary stricture was 1.4% in urokinase perfusian group (x2 = 5.98, P < 0. 05). Conclusions Liver retransplantation is effective for refractory biliary stricture in liver transplant recipients. The incidence of intrahepatic diffuse biliary stricture is reduced in non-heart-beating donor by using urokinase perfusian.

Objective To explore the changes of frequency, BAFF expression and sensitivity to apoptosis of CD19 + CD5 + B cells in endometriosis patients and investigate the relationship between CD19 +CD5 + B cells and endometriosis. Methods Flow cytometry and quantitative PCR were used to assess the frequency, BAFF expression and sensitivity to apoptosis of CD19+ CD5 + B cells in the peripheral blood,peritoneal fluids and endometrium biopsies of 39 patients with endometriosis and 31 patients with myoma of uterus ( control subjects). Results: All 39 endometriosis patients had higher frequencies ( all P ＜ 0. 01 ) of CD19 + CD5 + B cells in the peripheral blood, peritoneal fluids and endometrium biopsies than that in 31 control subjects. CD19 + CD5 + B cells from endometriosis patients expressed higher BAFF, and were more resistant to CD95L-induced apoptosis than the cells from control subjects ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). Conclusion CD19 + CD5 + B cells might play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis through higher BAFF expression and more resistance to CD95L-induced apoptosis.
