Objective:To Study the efficacy and satety of lamivudine in the treatment of CHB and HBV carrier. Methods:All patients were divided into three groups. 21 patients with CHB were classified CHB test group(namely groupⅠ), 16 HBV carries were classified ASC test group(namely Group Ⅱ), 40 patients with CHB were CHB controlled group(namely controlled group). Both group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ received lamivudine, group Ⅰ was added protecting liver therapy. The controlled group only received protecting liver therapy. The treatment courses of three groups were one year. Results:The effective rates of group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ were higher than the controlled group in turning into negative HBeAg and HBV-DNA, both the negative-turning rate of liver functions and hepatic serology target declining fibrosis in group Ⅰ was more significant than the controlled group without severe side effect. Conclusion:Lamivudin is efficient and safe medicine in the treatment of CHB and HBV carrier.

Objective:To summarize the allergic mechanism caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection (TCMI) to provide some references for perfecting Good Laboratory Practice(GLP) of TCMI.Method:The related iteratures in data bases at home and abroad were reviewed,and the present experimental research methods about allergies were referred to to have a view of future studies.Result:The allergic mechanism of TCMI was mostly antigen-antibody reaction, part of which was anaphylactoid reaction.The method of the evaluation of allergy caused by TCMI only was animal experiments, but there were still some allergies caused by TCMI after the evaluation with this method.The present experimental research methods indicated that the detection of mediators of inflammation and FCM(Flow Cytometry) could be used to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI.Conclusion:More attention should be paid to allergies caused by TCMI for its complicated mechanism and frequent occurrences in clinic.It may be an effective way to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI with several methods including in vivo and in vitro.

Aim To investigate the Clotrimazoles (CLT) inhibitive effect on the secretion of ?-defensins of the Paneth cells.Methods The ?-defensin mRNA expression is determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The secretion of defensins is determined by dot-blot and ELISA. Results CLT has no influence on the defensin mRNA expression. All of 125 nmol?L -1, 250 nmol?L -1 and 500 nmol?L -1 CLT can inhibit the secretion of ?-defensins. Conclusion CLT could inhibit the secretion of defensins, which suggests that CLT maybe influence the function of small intestine

Homeostasis between the host and viruses is naturally maintained.On the one hand,the immune system activates the immune re-sponse to kill or eliminate viruses;on the other hand,the immune system controls the immune response to maintain immune homeostasis. The cause of persistent infections with hepatitis viruses such as HBV and HCV is that viral molecules damage the immune system of the host and their variants escape immune clearance.Long-term coexistence of the host and viruses is the process involving various immune cells and molecules and is the result of homeostasis maintenance in antiviral immune response.The immune homeostasis maintained during persis-tent infections with hepatitis viruses is analyzed by the cellular and molecular mechanisms.

The neonatal burst suppression is a severe EEG pattern and always demonstrates serious damage of nerve system. But the outcome of these patients depends on the different etiology. A total of 256 cases of video EEG recordings were analyzed in order to summarize the etiology and outcome of burst suppression. The results showed that some patients in all 17 cases of burst suppression showed EEG improvement. The etiology was the dominant factor in long term outcome. It was suggested that effective video EEG monitoring is helpful for etiologic study and prognosis evaluation.

The MPN method was used to enumerate ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) in water and sediments of several shallow lakes. The suitable incubation time, medium types and substrate (ammonium sulphate) concentrations were studied. The results showed that, MPN values increased with the incubation time, reaching a stable maximum at some time stages, which was 40 days in all the samples for MSF medium. Among the three media used (XZ-AOB、MSF、SW), MSF give the highest MPN value. In addition, am- monium sulphate concentration in medium was an important factor affecting MPN estimation of AOB. Compared to AOB in lake sediments, AOB in lake water was more sensitive to ammonium sulphate concentration.

Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2000;0(06):-
Objective To study the Ile796Val polymorphism in human SCAP gene in Hubei area, and analyze its correlation with coronary heart disease (CHP) and hypertension and the relationship between polymorphism and lipid metabolism. Methods Using PCR RFLP, we detected genotypes of Ile796Val polymorphism in human SCAP gene. Results The allele A frequencies of Ile796Val in human SCAP gene for controls, CHD patients and the hypertension patients were 0.32, 0.45 and 0.42 respectively. The allele G frequencies were 0 68, 0.55 and 0.58 respectively. There were significant differences in frequencies of genotype and alleles between controls and hypertension group. And there was significant difference in the level of TC, LDL C and ApoB. In CHD group, there was significant difference in the TC level between different genotypes. In hypertension patients, although a difference was noted in genotype, there was no significant difference in allele frequencies and lipid level exceps a significant difference in the levels of TC, LDL C and ApoB in hypertension patients. Conclusion Ile796Val polymorphism in human SCAP gene may be a great agent to cause disorder in the lipid level of blood and lipid metabolism of tissue. It is of great significance in disorder in lipid metabolism of inter cellular and genetic investigation of hyperlipidemia.
