The sere of 300 volunteer blood donors in Shanghai Area were tested for the hepatitis B surface antigens (HBsAg)and their antibodies(Anti- HBs)by ELISA technique.The posi- tive rates of test for both HBsAg and Anti-HBs were 12.66% and 33.6% respectively.The sensitivity of the testing method was 2ng/ml for HBsAg and 5mIU/ml for anti- HBs.In the meantime,the sera were also tested for HBsAg by RP- HA,which,gave the positive rate of only 5 %,with the fete of missed test being 8% as epmpared with the result given by ELISA.The prob- lems that are existing at present in test by ELISA were treated, suggesting that the quality control over the reagents and procedures involved must be carried out so that, the method mentioned above can become an effective means.In addi- tion,the significance of test for anti- HBs and anti-HBe in screening the blood donors was discussed.

Background Open-globe injury of zone Ⅱ is a severe eyeball wound in the sclera area near 5mm from the corneal limbus.To accurately evaluate the local tissue structure after the wounding is very important for lessening the complications of eye injury.Ultrasound biomicroscope (UBM) has been proven useful in examining eyeball wall and vitreous at the wound in order to offer the useful information about whether secondary operation is needed for the injured eyes and when is the optimal timing for surgery.Objective The present study is to explore the clinical application of UBM in open-globe injury of zone Ⅱ. Methods This is an observational study of clinical cases.UBM examination was performed on 38 eyes of 38 cases received emergency repair surgery of open-scleral injury.The restore status of sclera,ciliary body and vitreous of injuried zone (zone Ⅱ) were evaluated under the UBM in 3-5 days after the operation.The comprehensive results of UBM,B-scan and ophthalmoscope examinations were analyzed to determine the further treatment.The oral informed consent was obtained from each subject before this trial.Results Vitreous surgery were performed on 15 cases,and all wounds were found by UBM and were proven in the surgery.The other 23 cases were followed up in out-patient department and no obvious complications were found.Conclusion UBM is a valuable and atraumatic examination for open-globe injury of zone Ⅱ.It offers important and appraisal information about ocular injury.

[Objective] To analyze the clinical curative effect of 20G and 23G vitrectomy for posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies,to explore the differences of their efficacy and safety.[Methods] This was a retrospective case study.Select 71 patients (71 eyes) who suffered from posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies and underwent different ways of vitrectomy,according to the way of vitrectomy,the patients were enrolled into 20G vitrectomy group (20G group,37 patients,37 eyes) and 23G vitrectomy group (23G group,34 patients,34 eyes).All patients were given wound suture,and patients complicated traumatic cataract should underwent cataract surgery;then were given 20G/23G vitrectomy and extraction of intraction foreign bodies,and (or) be given retinal laser photocoagulation,cryocoagulation,and endotamponade during the procedure.Extraction of intraction foreign bodies and the location of retinal,surgical time,postoperative inflammation and stimulus syndrome,length of hospital stay,the best corrected acuity (BCVA) and other complications after surgery were registered.Minimum follow-up was 6 months.[Results] The rate of extraction of intraction foreign bodies and early retinal reattachment rate were 100％ of the two groups.Comparing the complications after surgery between the two groups,the differences had no statistical significance (all P ＞ 0.05) except the incidence of postoperative ocular hypotenison.The significant difference was found in the comparison of surgical time,average hospitalizcd days,postoperative inflammation score and stimulus syndrome between the two groups,and there were significant differences when the vision distribution before and after surgery in two groups were self-compared (P ＜ 0.05).At lastest follow up,the differences had no statistical significance when comparing the cases of unplanned surgical reoperation,the location of retinal and the vision distribution between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).[Conclusion] 20G and 23G vitrectomy are both safely and effectively performed in patients with posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies,the efficacy and safety of them are comparable.There is higher incidence of postoperative ocular hypotension in 23G group,and it has an ascendant than 20G group in shorter surgical time and length of hospital stay,lighter postoperative inflamnation and stimulus syndrome.

Objective To investigate subtle structural changes of white matter in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impair-ment (aMCI)using a tractography-based method.Methods Thirty patients with clinical diagnosis of aMCI and thirty-one cases of normal control(NC)and undergone diffusion tensor imaging.Cingulum (CG),corpus callosum (CC),uncinate fasciculus (UNC) and inferior occipitofrontal fasciculus (IOFF)were reconstructed,and fractional anisotrophy (FA)values were measured along these tracts using dTV II software.Differences of white matter tracts’FA values were explored between aMCI group and NC group.In addition,correlation analyses were also done between FA values and the MMSE(mini-mental state examination)scores in the aMCI patients.Results ① aMCI patients exhibited significant lower FA values in the bilateral CG,bilateral UNC and CC than NC group. Although there were no statistically significant differences,aMCI patients exhibited lower FA values than NC group in the left IOFF.② The FA values of right CG were positively correlated with MMSE scores.Conclusion Abnormal changes of FA values in CG,UNC and CC of aMCI patients suggest that subtle damages of white matter tracts related to memory exist in the prodromal phase of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).Fiber tractography has high sensitivity in detecting early damages of white matter.

Aim To explore the anti-proliferation effects of curcumin trinicotinate ( CurTn ) on vascular smooth muscle cell ( VSMC ) and its mechanism. Methods The cells were cultured in DMEM supple-mented with 10% fetal bovine serum. MTT assay was used to examine cell proliferation. FCM was used to observe cell cycle. The expressions of PCNA, Cy-clinD1 and p-ERK1/2 were analyzed using Western blot. Results CurTn could inhibit the proliferation of VSMC and showed a certain amount-time relationship. What’ s more, CurTn could increase the G1 phase pro-portion of cell, decrease the S phase proportion and the expression level of PCNA protein. It was also found that CurTn significantly inhibit the protein expression of p-ERK1/2 and Cyclin D1 . Conclusion CurTn may inhibit the proliferation of VSMC via downregulating the expression of CyclinD1 and p-ERK1/2 .

Objective To verify that lncRNA-C21orF96 regulates the expression of miRNA-875-5p and USF2 genes and promotes the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.Methods RT-PCR was used to measure the expression of lncRNA-C21orF96 related miRNA in gastric cancer cells.pcDNA3.1 plasmid was used to over-express lncRNA-C21orF96 in KATO-Ⅲ and siRNA was used to knockdown the expression of lncRNA-C21orF96 in SGC-7901,and RT-PCR was used to measure the expression of miRNA-875-5p and USF2 genes;By overexpressing lncRNA-C21orF96 in MKN45,transwell was used to observe changes of cells invasion and migration.Results LncRNA-C21orF96 showed a significant inverse relationship with miR-875-5p,(SGC-7901:21.19 ±1.09 vs.3.28 ±0.06,P＜0.01;SNU-16:24.76 ±2.09 vs.8.16 ±0.07,P ＜ 0.01).In KATO-Ⅲ over-expressing lncRNA-C21 orF96,miR-875-5p expression decreased significantly while USF2 expression increased (P ＜0.01);In SGC-7901 with lncRNA-C21orF96 knockdown,miR-875-5p expression increased significantly while USF2 expression decreased (P ＜ 0.05).The number of cells passing through the artificial basement membrane in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the control group (migration:216.19 ± 2.30 vs.89.19 ± 4.60,P＜0.001;invasion:146.18 ±5.3 vs.59.18 ± 2.60,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions The overexpression of lncRNA-C21orF96 significantly reduces the expression of miR-875-5p and promotes the expression of USF2,hence promoting the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.

Excessive N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine(NAPQI)formation is a starting event that triggers oxidative stress and subsequent hepatocyte necrosis in acetaminophen(APAP)overdose caused acute liver failure(ALF).S-glutathionylation is a reversible redox post-translational modification and a prospective mechanism of APAP hepatotoxicity.Glutaredoxin-1(Glrx1),a glutathione-specific thioltransferase,is a primary enzyme to catalyze deglutathionylation.The objective of this study was to explored whether and how Glrx1 is associated with the development of ALF induced by APAP.The Glrx1 knockout mice(Glrx1-/-)and liver-specific overexpression of Glrx1(AAV8-Glrx1)mice were produced and underwent APAP-induced ALF.Pirfenidone(PFD),a potential inducer of Glrx1,was administrated preceding APAP to assess its protective effects.Our results revealed that the hepatic total protein S-glutathionylation(PSSG)increased and the Glrx1 level reduced in mice after APAP toxicity.Glrx1-/- mice were more sensitive to APAP overdose,with higher oxidative stress and more toxic metabolites of APAP.This was attributed to Glrx1 deficiency increasing the total hepatic PSSG and the S-glutathionylation of cytochrome p450 3a 11(Cyp3a11),which likely increased the activity of Cyp3a11.Conversely,AAV8-Glrx1 mice were defended against liver damage caused by APAP overdose by inhibiting the S-glutathionylation and activity of Cyp3a11,which reduced the toxic metabolites of APAP and oxidative stress.PFD precede administration upregulated Glrx1 expression and alleviated APAP-induced ALF by decreasing oxidative stress.We have identified the function of Glrx1 mediated PSSG in liver injury caused by APAP overdose.Increasing Glrx1 expression may be investigated for the medical treatment of APAP-caused hepatic injury.
