Objective To investigate the role of cell mediated immunity in HBV infection.Methods tive responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)to hepatitis B virus antigen HBcAg,HBehg and HBsAg were studied in 20 patients with acute hepatitis B and 23 patients with chronic hepatitis B as well as 20 heath normal donrors.Results Patients with acute hepatitis B showed stronger proliferative responses of PBMC to HBV antigen than patients with chronic hepatitis B as wdl as normal donors.The responses to HBcAg and HBeAg were stronger than that to HBsAg in both acute and chronic group.It was also found that cellular pro|ifertive response,which showed no correlation with ALT level,was significantly increased in the patients with HBV DNA+or/and HBeAg+.Conclusion The results indicate that cellular immune responses to HBV antigens exist in peripheral blood of patients with hepatitis B and potentially play an essential role not only in eliminating virus but also in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B.

Objective To explore the application value of the detection of vitamin B12 (VitB12 ) ,folic acid (FA) and four iron met-abolic indexes including serum ferritin (SF) ,transferring (TF) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) and serum iron (SI) in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of anemia .Methods 126 patients with anemia and 30 healthy controls were enrolled from Janu-ary to May 2013 and determined serum VitB12 ,FA ,SF ,TF ,TIBC and SI levels for conducting the comparison with each other . Meanwhile ,the patients with anemia were extracted bone marrow to carry out ferric stain and morphological test ,their detection re-sults and the results of above-mentioned serological markers determination were performed the comparison of the diagnostic accord-ance rate .Results The serum levels of various iron metabolism-related indexes had significant differences between the anemia group and the healthy control group (P<0 .05) ,and various different kinds of anemia had their comparatively specific serological characteristics .In 126 cases of anemia ,the diagnostic accordance rate of the bone marrow examination was 82 .5% ,which was sig-nificant higher than that of the serological examination(69 .8% )(χ2 =5 .600 ,P=0 .018);nevertheless ,in 23 cases anemia unable to determine the diagnosis by bone marrow examination ,the diagnostic accordance rate of the serological examination was 82 .6% (19/23);the inconsistent rate of the two examinations was 25 .4% (32/126) .Conclusion The bone marrow examination and the sero-logical examination have different emphasis points for the anemia diagnosis and have their own advantages ,which cannot replace each other .Their combination use has certain clinical value in the differential diagnosis between iron deficiency anemia (IDA) with anemia of chronic disease complicated with iron deficiency (ACD/ID) ,myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) ,megaloblastic anemia (M A ) and mixed cellular anemia .

Early diagnosis of esophageal cancer is essential for improving both the effectiveness of esophageal cancer treatment and the prognosis of patients.As a new technology for esophageal cancer early diagnosis,narrow-band imaging (NBI) enables surgeon to clearly observe the mucosa and submucosal blood vessels changes in early esophageal cancer.It has initially shown excellent application value in the early diagnosis.In particular it has obvious advantages to the ordinary white light endoscopy which is currently used in esophageal cancer early diagnosis.If combined with Lugol iodine staining,magnifying endoscopy and other diagnostic methods in clinical,NBI will have a better value in early diagnosis of esophageal.

AIM:To study the role of heme oxygenase (HO)-1 in the mechanism of cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK-8) for attenuation of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS: Adult male rats were randomly divided into five groups: control group, LPS group, CCK-8+LPS group, LPS+ Hm (hemin, HO-1 donor) group and LPS+ZnPP (zinc protoporphyrin, specific inhibitor of HO-1) group. PMN number in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), the structure of the lung, MDA content, HO-1 activity, the expressions of HO-1 mRNA and protein in the lung were detected respectively. RESULTS: The lung injury in LPS group was observed, at the same time the numbers of PMN, the content of MDA, the activity and the expression of HO-1 were all higher than those in control group (all P

Objective To observe and analyze the CT and MR imaging of the structures in the region of the jugular foramen (JF) on the base of thin-slice anatomic study. Methods Having been scanned by multislice CT and 1.5T MR scanner, two formalin-preserved adult cadavers were dissected into 1.0 mm thickness contiguous sections in transverse plane. Twenty cases without skull base and nasopharyngeal history received routine and post-contrast CT examinations with spiral and HQ mode. Twenty healthy volunteers received MR scanning, including SE T 1WI, FSE T 2WI, and 3D RF-FAST (3D Radio-Frequency Fourier Acquired Steady-State) sequences. Results JF region was divided into three levels, which included inner aperture, the jugular cavity, and the outer aperture. At the entrance of JF, there were glossopharyngeal canal and vagal canal, which wrapped the Ⅸ nerve and Ⅹ and Ⅺ nerves, respectively. CT images could display these canals in 20 cases (100%). Furthermore, the Ⅸ, Ⅹ, and Ⅺ nerves could be identified on different MR sequences. 17 cases (85%) were displayed on 3D RF-FAST, 14 cases (70%) on SE T 1WI, and 10 cases (50%) on FSE T 2WI, respectively. From the anterior to the posterior compartment within the JF cavity, the structures ranged as follows: the Ⅸ nerve, the inferior petrosal sinus, the Ⅹ and Ⅺ nerves, and the jugular bulb. These neuro-vessel structures could not be distinguished on CT, SE T 1WI, and FSE T 2WI images, except for 3D RF-FAST (16 cases, 80%). The outer aperture of JF was adjacent to the hypoglossal canal. The shape of JF outer aperture could be evaluated on CT images. On the oblique plane, which was parallel to the hypoglossal canal, the posterior cranial nerves could be detected to enter/exit the skull through the JF and hypoglossal canal separately. Conclusion The complement of CT and MR imaging would be helpful to distinguish the structures in the region of JF.

As an important member of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR), metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) plays an important role in the signal transduction of central nervous system. Selective mGluR1 antagonists can block the signaling pathway activated by mGluR1 and exert a series of physiological actions including analgesia, antianxiety, antidepression, etc. Currently, the discovery and modification of selective mGluR1 antagonists have become a hot research focus. This paper reviews the structural catalogs of selective mGluR1 antagonists and their structure-activity relationships in the last decade.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of the detection of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) DNA typing in therapy of cervical diseases. Methods 780 cases have been studied. These cases which showed HPV-DNA positive and were diagnosed by biopsy as cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia( CIN Ⅰ-Ⅲ) were treated by operation or physical therapy. And 6 months and 12 months after the treatment,TCT and HPV DNA test were carried out. Results The prevalence of HPV-DNA types among the 780 cases descended from HPV 16 to 52,58,18,33 and 31. Detection rates of HPV-52 and 58 were highest among the patients with CIN Ⅰ. In patients with CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ,carcinoma in situ and invasive carcinoma,the positive rate of HPV-16 was obviously higher than other genotypes,and the difference was significant (P＜0. 01 ). 520 cases were followed-up after treatment,we found that HPV-DNA subsided within 3 months to 1 year in 432 cases. 88 cases still showed the HPV-DNA positive, among this group 48 cases were cytology diagnosed as normal or inflammation,but 14 cases were ASC-US,22 cases were LSIL and 4 cases were HSIL. Cytology abnormal cases were mere often detected in patients with persistent HPV-positive than in patients with HPV-negative. Conclusion Referring patients with cervical diseases the common HPV genotypes are 16,52,58,18,33 and 31. Especially HPV-16 are closely related with cervical cancer and high-level cervical intraepithelial neoplasis. HPV-DNA turn negative in most patients in 12 months after treatment. Persistent infection of HPV-DNA is related with the pathological changes persist.
