Objective To study the antagonism to chemokine MCP-1 of MC148 gene which homogued human?chemokines mediated by adenoviral vector.Methods MC148 was amplified from DNA of molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV) isolates and sequenced. The product was co-tranfected into adenovirus vector to construct recombinant Ad-MC148. MC148P protein was obtained from the supernatant of 293 cells transfected with recombinant Ad-MC148 and served as antagonist against the recruitment of monocyte to MCP-1 in chemotaxis inhibition assay.Results MC148 gene was cloned, the sequence of which was identical to that reported in GenBank. Recombinant Ad-MC148 was constructed successfully. MC148P could antagonize the chemotaxis of monocyte to MCP-1. Conclusions MC148 could antagonize chemokine MCP-1 and inhibit chemotaxis of monocyte. MC148 is an antagonist against MCP-1. This study might provide a novel way to control immune response.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare Weian granules and establish the standard of quality control.METHODS:Using C18-ODS as fixed phase and acetiontrile-water-acetic acid(15∶10∶1) as mobile phase,the detection was carried out at wavelength 294nm.RESULTS:The linear range of Magnolol concentration was 0.075～0.525?g/ml and correlation coefficient was 0.9 989.The average recovery of sample was 98.53% with a RSD of 0.42%(n=6).CONCLUSION:The method is suitable for the quality control of Weian granules.

Objective:To investigate the effect and elucidate the mechanism of the selective cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)inhibitor NS-398 on apoptosis and survivin, XIAP and c-IAP1 expressions of hepatocarcinoma cell lines. Methods:The proliferation of hepatocarcinoma BEL-7402 cells treated with NS-298 at different concentrations were evaluated by MTT assay. The apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry (FCM) and TUNEL assay. Expressions of COX-2, survivin, XIAP and c-IAP1 were analyzed by immunocytochemical staining. Results: NS-398 significantly inhibited cell proliferation of BEL-7402 cells and induced apoptosis. Immunocytochemisty indicated that the expressions of COX-2, survivin, XIAP and c-IAP1 were significantly down-regulated in BEL-7402 cells by NS-398 treatment compared with untreatment group (P<0.01). Conclusion:NS-398 inhibits the proliferation and induced apoptosis of BEL-7402 cells. The mechanism may be related with down-regulation of the survivin, XIAP and c-IAP1 expression.

Gastric hepatoid adenocarcinoma (GHA) is a rare but important sub-type of gastric adenocarcinoma characterized by high serum α-fetoprotein,early lymphatic and hepatic metastasis,and poor prognosis.Clinically,the presentation could be atypical,liver neoplasm could be the initial finding.With similar clinicopathological presentation as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),prompt and correct diagnosis can be a challenge,especially in endemic areas with a high incidence of HCC.Once diagnosed,surgical removal remains the treatment of choice.This review focus on advancement on the biological,histological and immunohistological features,and the clinicopathological presentation of GHA.

Objective To study the role of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in an animal model combining ischemia-reperfusion with 85％ liver resection.Methods Eight-week-old male SD rats received BM-MSC by tail vein and then underwent 30-min ischemia followed by 85％ liver resection.The survival rate was monitored for 7 days after surgery.Liver regeneration was assessed on day 2 after hepatectomy.Liver damage,liver cell apoptosis,and cytokine expression in the first 24 h after hepatectomy were also assessed.Results BM-MSC mostly homed to the spleen.Transplantation significantly inhibited myeloperoxidase [(19.9 ± 6.0) mg/g vs.(41.4 ± 10.2) mg/g] and downregulated proinflammatory cytokines.BM-MSC significantly reduced the ALT and AST levels [AST (1 475 ± 275) IU/L vs.(2 550 ± 441) IU/L,P ＜ 0.05;ALT (738 ± 101) IU/L vs.(1 113 ± 268) IU/L,P ＜ 0.05].The attenuation of liver injury was also verified histologically 24 h after surgery.Liver cell apoptosis was markedly reduced.Moreover,BM-MSC infusion significantly promoted remnant liver regeneration.As a result,the survival rate was improved by BM-MSC treatment in this model (95％ vs 70％,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion In an animal model combining ischemia-reperfusion with 85％ liver resection,BM-MSC infusion attenuated liver injury and promoted hepatocyte regeneration,resulting in improved survival rate.

Objective To investigate the effect of selective bowel decontamination (SBD) on prognosis of 90％ hepatectomy in rats.Methods We adopted rat model of subtotal hepatectomy(90％,SHx),gentamicin + polymyxin + nystatinor saline of the same amount was administrated preoperatively.Liver damage makers,portal and systemic lipopolysaccharide(LPS),mucosal damage,signaling pathways and liver regeneration were investigated.Results We found that SHx resulted in significantly enhancedsystemic LPS.Inhibition of gastrointestinal gram-negative bacteria by SBD significantly reduced LPS levels and improved survival after SHx.SBD protected intestinal mucosa barrier,alleviated liver parenchymal damage and inflammation and promoted liver regeneration.Conclusion SBD is beneficial and necessary for extended heptactomy.

Portal hypertension is a common clinical disease and brings a series of complications including the formation of gastrointestinal varicose veins, ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, and abdominal varicose veins. Most of these complications are related to the opening of collateral circulation after the increase in portal venous pressure. On one hand, collateral circulation helps to alleviate the high portal venous pressure, and on the other hand, it brings related complications to patients. This article reviews recent reports and studies on collateral circulation related to portal hypertension, in order to increase our knowledge of collateral circulation in portal hypertension and improve clinical diagnosis and treatment of such disease.

OBJECTIVETo prepare flexible proanthocyanidins nanoliposomes, and explore the in vitro release behavior of proanthocyanidins flexible nanoliposomes and general nanoliposomes.

METHODFlexible proanthoeyanidins nanoliposomes were prepared proanthocyanidins using a film dispersion method, characterized by transmission electron microscope, and the in vitro release action was studied in different dissolution mediums using dynamic dialyse method with the content of total phenol as index.

RESULTThe in vitro release of both proanthocyanidins flexible nanoliposomes and general nanoliposomes were in accordance with Weibull distribution.

CONCLUSIONProanthocyanidins flexible nanoliposomes without pressure had similar in vitro release behavior with general nanoliposomes.
