Aim To prepare and identify monodonal sntibody (Mab) specific for Toaoplasma gondii tachyzoites. Method The Mab specific for Taxoplasma gondii tachyrzoite were prepared via bybridoma technique. Indirect ELISA was used to determine the activity of the Mab. Agarose double immuodiffusion test was performed to confirm subclass and SDS-PAGE & western blot were used to analysis rolecular weight of the antigen (s) recognized by the Mab. IFA was used to identify the epitope of Taxoplasma gondii tachyzoites. The protection and specificity of the Mab were snalysed at same time. The Mab was tesed in Mab-ELISA method to detect Taxoplasma gondii antigen. Results A Msb F7C8H12 specific for T. gondii was produced. It belongs to IgG1 subclass. Moleculsr weight of the sntigens recognized by the Mab was 16.5 and 24 kDa. IFA did not show fiuorescence in intact tachyzoite.Inhibition test showed that the inhibition rate was 50% when the concetration of the antigen was 40μg/ml.Afterthe RH strain tachyzoites were incubated with Mab ascites, mice were inected with the tachyzoites through peritoneum. The results showed that the mean dead time of mice were not delayed. T. gondii antigen mixed with PBS snd normal human serum was detected by Mab-ELISA, the sensitvity was 0.78 yg/ml and 1.5μg/ml respectively. When mice were infected with T. gondiiRH strain tachyzoites, 103/mouse p.i., circulating antigen could be detectedin 6 day and 8 day. Conchusion The Mab (F7C8H12) to T. gomdii tachyzoites is an excellent probe for studying T. gondii snd toxoplasmosis.

Hepatic fibrosis in rat induced by intraperitoneal injection of dimethylnitroamine (DMN) was traeted by RNA (4 mg ? kg-1) and CoQ10(2. 5 mg ? kg-1) ,seperately. Normal and pathological groups were compared. In 30, 60 and 90 days treatment, rats were killed for ul-trastructural examination and measurement of serum enzymology, serum amino acids and the quantity of collagenous fibers. The results indicated that, in RNA-treated and CoQ10 treated groups, Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Y-glutamyl-transpeptidase(?-GT) were normal, the ratio of albunm to globulin (A/G) had significantly difference compared with controlgroup. In RNA-treated group,L-Alanine:2-Ox-oglutarate Aminotransferase(ALT), monoamine oxidase (MAO) and N-acetyl-?-glucosaminidase (NAG) decreased evidently, serum amino acids increased slightly. Ultrastructural and microscopical examination showed the degree of hepa-tocytic necrosis degeneration and the quantity of collagenous fibers in RNA-treated group were rather mild. It appeared that there were protection effects of RNA on liver enzymology and hepaticfibrosis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of Plantago asiatica L. on antioxidation in rats. Methods: The antioxidative enzymes and LPO of serum, heart, and liver tissues were determined. Results: The activities of superoxide (SOD) in serum and heart were significantly lower than that of the control. The lipid peroxide (LPO) level in serum and heart was markedly higher than that of the control. Serum and liver catalase (CAT) activities in rats fed with high fat were decreased. Activities of liver glutathione peroxidase (GSH Px) in high fat rats were decreased significantly. The production of SOD activities in serum and liver and GSH Px in liver were increased significantly in rats maintained on Plantago asiatica L. supplemented diets, meanwhile serum and heart LPO were reduced. Conclusion: 15g/kg Plantago asiatica L. can increase the antioxidation against lipid peroxide in hyperlipidemic rats.

Objective To study the feasibility of using fractional flow reserve (FFR) to guide whether to perform coronary revascularization of non-culprit moderate stenosis in patients with unstable angina and estimate their clinical prognosis. Methods This study enrolled unstable angina patients with multivessel disease. First successful stenting of the culprit artery, then the other non-culprit moderate coronary stenosis were randomized into PCI guided by angiography or guided by FFR measurements. Death from any cause, nonfatal myocardial infarction, unplanned hospitalization leading to urgent revascularization and clinical manifestations with angina were followed during the first year. Results 71 patients were included, among them 35 patiens were randomly assigned to angiography-guided PCI and 36 patients to FFR-guided PCI. In FFR-guided PCI group, FFR was successfully measured in all of non-culprit moderate coronary stenosis. In 23 stenosis, the FFR was greater than 0.80, and stents were not placed in these stenosis. In 13 stenosis with FFR<0.8, stent were inplant and FFR was raised≥0.95 after stenting. The percentage of patients who had a primary end-point event was higher in the angiography-guided PCI group than the FFR-guided PCI group (P<0.05). Neither the rate of mortelity from any cause nor the rate of non-fatal myocardial infarction had significant difference between the 2 groups. Related to the target vessels rates of nonfatal myocardial infarction (5.6%vs. 28.6%) and target lesion revascularization (5.6%vs. 31.4%) were statistically different (P<0.01 and P<0.05, respectively). Conclusions In patients with unstable angina, it is safe to use FFR values to guide decisions on the revascularization of angiographically moderate non-culprit stenosis. Routine measurement of FFR in addition to angiographic guidance, as compared with PCI guided by angiography alone, results in a significant reduction in major adverse events at 1 year, particularly in urgent revascularization, and clinical manifestations with angina get better.

BACKGROUND: Stable reliable experimental animal models are needed urgently in scar research.OBJECTIVE: Scar animal models of nude mice are evaluated with histological method to define optimal opportunity for using.DESIGN: Randomizly controlled and repetitively measured design.SETTING: Department of Burn, First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted at the Center for Animal Experiment, Medical College, Sun Yat-sen University between January 2004 and March 2004. Fifteen nude mice aged 4-6 weeks were provided by Center for Animal Experiment, Medical College, Sun Yat-sen University (of either gender with body mass of 15-25 g). Hyperplastic scar was gained from samples of exairesis in patients with burn after healing which is hyperplastic scar for half a year.METHODS: Human hyperplastic scar was grafted at dorsa of nude mice to establish scar animal models. After graft for four weeks, 5 experimental animals were killed every week, and grafts were gained. 100 g/L formalin was used to fix samples for 3 weeks. Picric-sirius red polarized light method was used to detect the graft and clinical materials, and histological feature was observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Results of film reading of picric-sirius red polarized light method. ②Analytic result of computer image.RESULTS: ①Results of film reading of picric-sirius red polarized light method: The grafts showed the same feature of diffused distribution of mainly yellow and red thick fiber with thin-mesh green fiber under polarized light in every time segment group. ②Analytic result of computer image: In clinicopathological hyperplastic scar, type Ⅰ collagen was about 74%; type Ⅲ collagen accounted for about 26%. In the graft from 4-6 weeks, the contents of type Ⅰ collagen were (74.52 ±0.47)% , (74.43 ±0.53)% ,(74.69±0.63)%, respectively; The contents of type Ⅲ were (25.48±0.47)%, (25.57±0.53)%, (25.31±0.63)%, respectively, which had insignificant difference (P > 0.05 ).CONCLUSION: In the time segment designed by experiment, the feature of graft and clinical material is coincident, which is accorded with the characteristics of hyperplastic scar. The detection of collagen of scar tissue with picric-sirius red polarized light method is a simple effective method for assessing the tissue of hyperplastic scar. Establishing scar models with nude mice is effective and stable.
