Objective To investigate the value of G6PI in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods The clinical data of 130 cases of patients with RA treated in the hospital from August 2011 to August 2013 were statistically analyzed.In addition to that,85 non-RA patients with other rheumatic diseases were recruited as non-RA group and 60 healthy people were recruited as control group.Results Serum G6PI,anti-CCP antibodies and RF concentrations of RA group were significantly higher than those of non-RA group and control group(P <0.05),the RF concentrations of non-RA group was significantly higher than those of con-trol group(P <0.05).The positive rates of G6PI,anti-CCP antibodies and RF tests were 67.7%(88/130),52.3%(68/130)and 75.4% (98/130)respectively in RA group,which were significantly higher than those in non-RA and control group(P <0.05),the serum RF concentrations in non-RA group were significantly higher than control group(P <0.05).The sensitivity,negative predic-tive value and Youden index of G6PI were significantly higher than those of anti-CCP and RF(P <0.05).Serum G6PI concentra-tions of RA patients was positively correlated with those of RF(r=0.732,P <0.05).Conclusion G6PI detection can be used in the diagnosis of RA,and is of great value.

Objective To compare the severity of hepatic ischemidreperfusion(I/R)injury caused by partial hepatectomy performed under propofol-remifentanil and isoflurane-fentanyl anesthesia.Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 41-64 yr weighing 58-86 kg undergoing elective partial hepatectomy were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=15 each):propefol-remifentanil group(PR)and isoflurane-fentanyl group(IF).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,fentanyl,etomidate and vecuronium.The patients were mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation.Anesthesia was maintained with TCI of propofol(Cp=3.5μg/ml)and remifentanil(Cp=4.2 ng/ml)in group PR or 1.5%-2.5% isoflurane and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl in group IF.Muscle relaxation was maintained with intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium in both groups.Blood samples were taken before occlusion of hepatic portal(T1)immediately(T2)and 30,60 min after release of portal occlusion(T3,4)and 1 d after operation(T5),for determination of sernm levels of ALT,AST,γ-GGT,LDH,TBIL,T-SOD and MDA.Specimens were obtained from the liver left intact after partial hepatectomy for ultrastructural examination with electron microscope.ResultsSerum levels of ALT at T5,γ-GGT at T3,4,and MDA at T4,5 were significandy lower while T-SOD at T5 were significantly higher in group PR than in group IF.Electron microscopic examination showed that tissue damages were significantly aRenuated in PR group as compared with IF group.Conclusion Propofol-remifentanil anesthesia can to some extent pmtect the liver against I/R injury during partial hepatectomy by reducing oxygen free radicals.

US10 gene of Herpesvirus is located in the short unique region of its genome and not essential for virus replication.US10 gene encodes a phosphorylated tegument-capsid associated protein or type Ⅰ transmembrane glycoprotein which selectively targets the cytoplasmic tail of HLA-G,a kind of nonclassical class Ⅰ MHC molecular,to reduce and block the host NK cell cytotoxicity in immune evasion.US10 can also interact with host proteins to play a pathogenic role and regulate the expression of other viral proteins such as glycoprotein E (gE).Through further research,the role of US10 in virulence and its ability to combine with RNA and regulate transcription can be judged in the future.

Until now, more than seventeen parvovirus have been reported which can infect mammals and poultries. The infected cells appeared different properties of apoptosis and death, present a typical cytopathic effect. NS1 is a major nonstructural protein of parvovirus, with a conservative structure and function, which plays an important role in the viral life cycle. In addition to the influence on viral replication, the NS1 also participates in apoptosis induced by viruses. Parvovirus induced apoptosis which is mainly mediated by mitochondrial pathway, this review summarized the latest research progresses of parvovirus induced apoptosis.

AIM:To cultivate the exoerythrocytic stage of Plasmodium yoelii in vitro and to study some involved affecting factors.METHOD:In vitro cultivation.RESULTS:The monolayer hepatocytes grown in 1 6 - mm plastic cell culture dishes were inoculated with sporozoite sus- pension prepared from Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes for48hours.At a final density of2? 1 0 4 cells per well,the infection rate of hepatocyte,cultured in medium supplemented wit15 % bovine serum,was 0 .0 35? 0 .0 1 3% ,the diameter of the nearly mature EEF of Plas- modium yoelii was up to40 .3? 31 .6 ?m,and contained more than1 0 0 nuclei,the number of EEF might be4- 1 0 /cm2 .An intraperitoneal inoculation of the EE schizonts to mice could induce parasitemia.At a final density of0 .5? 1 0 4 or4? 1 0 4 cells per well or the hepatocytes cultured in medium supplemented with1 0 % bovine serum,no EEF could be observed.CON- CL USION:The density of hepatocytes and culture medium are important for the cultivation of the EE stage of Plasmodium yoelii.This procedure will lay foundation for the further studies of the sporozoite invasion,the development of EEF and the affecting factors in- volved.

Objective To study the change of intracellular free Ca2+ in the oocyst when it melanized and to find out the relationship between the melanized oocyst and its intracellular level of free Ca2+ in a Plasmodium-refractory strain of Anopheles dirus. Methods The distribution and experimental condition of the intracellular free Ca2+ in oocyst of Plasmodium yoelii was measured with Ca2+ sensitive dye Fluo-3/AM and Plutonic F-127 under confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) at different time. Results The best load condition was that the oocysts were incubated in 3 ?mol/ml Fluo-3/AM adding 1 ?l/ml 25% Pluronic F-127 for 60 min at 37 ℃ . Fluorescent imaging of oocysts was affected by an increase or decrease of the concentration of Fluo-3/Am and incubation time. The distribution of intracellular free Ca2+ was heterogeneous in the oocysts. The mean value of Ca2 + in the mature oocysts was (137.15 ?7.02) nmol/L(X?S) but was (18.44? 1.75) nmol/L in melanized oocysts with Ca2+ sedimentation in the wall of oocyst. Conclusion The results suggest that the level of the intracellular free Ca2+ in oocyst decreased and excreted during its melanization in a Plasmodium-reiractory anopheline mosquito species.

Objective] To analyse the soluble antigens of different developmental stages of Pagumogonimus skrjabini and deve lop a specific and sensitive serodiagnostic method for pagumogonimiasis. [Methods] The soluble antigens of P.skrjabini of various stages were separated by SDS PAGE. The specific antigen of the adult fluke was recognized immunologically by immunoblot assay. The protein bands between 10～30 kDa purified by SDS PAGE and electrophoretic elution were used in dot ELISA. [Results] Using dot ELISA, the soluble antigens of adult were recognized by sera infected with P skrjabini . More reactive bands appeared at 10～30 kDa, but major protein bands were at 22、24 and 26 kDa. However, using sera from patients infected with other trematodes including schistosome and Clonorchis , cross reaction bands appeared within 60 to 90 kDa. When compared with ELISA of crude adult antigens for detecting 28 suspected patients, there was no significant difference between the two methods. The sera of 38 patients with other diseases were also detected by the two tests. No cross reaction occurred with the purified adult antigen dot ELISA while 13 2%(5/38) of the sera cross reacted in ELISA of crude adult antigens. [Conclusion] Dot ELISA using 10～30 kDa antigen might be a specific and sensitive serodiagnostic method for diagnoing pagumogonimiasis.

Objective:To investigate the dynamic changes of glycine (Gly) and taurine (Tau) in corpus striatum of rats with ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI),and the regulation effect of electroacupuncture on them.Methods:Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into sham surgery group,model group,and treatment group.Rats in the sham surgery group were operated without ischemia.Rats in the model group and treatment group were operated to make model of cerebral IRI.The ischemia status lasts 1.5 h,and reperfusion was performed for 3.75 h.Rats in the treatment group were treated with electroacupuncture at Fengchi (GB 20).Neurologic deficit score (NDS) was used to evaluate the rats functions.Microdialysis and High Performance Liquid Chromatography technique were used to detect the changes of Gly and Tau in corpus striatum of rats.Results:Contents of Gly and Tau increased at 1.5 h after ischemia.Them decreased to level as same as those rats in the sham surgery group after reperfusion.The content of Gly in the model and treatment group increased again at 2-2.5 h after reperfusion,and then decreased to the same level of the sham surgery group.There was a third increase of Gly content in the treatment group at 2.75 h after reperfusion.Electroacupuncture treatment could delay the decrease of Tau content after reperfusion,and make it increase at 1.5,2 and 2.75 h after reperfusion.The peak appeared in the last time.NDS in the model and treatment group were more than that in the sham surgery group,and lowered at 5.25 h after surgery.Effects in treatment group was better than that in the model group (P＜0.05).Conclusion:IRI makes contents of Gly and Tau in corpus striatum increase at a special time.Electroacupuncture treatment could increase contents of Gly and Tau at a special time after reperfusion,which maybe an important mechanism of protecting effects of electroacupuncture on the brain.
