Objective To study the therapeutic effect of temporary hepatic venous occlusion(TACE-THVO) in transplanted hepatoma rat model and to compare the effect between the adriamycin or the athanol iodized oil emulsion. Methods The seventy five SD rats with transplanted hepatoma were classified into five groups. In the control group, TACE-THVO was performed separately by injecting the adriamycin or the ethanol iodized oil emulsion. Within one week, ten rats in each group were all sacrificed. Then the results were analyzed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.Results (1) Gross study results: within one week, the hepatoma volume in each group was reduced after therapy. The experimental groups showed a lower tumour growth rate than that in the control groups; (2) Light microscopy results: within one week, the area of the tumor necrosis and the capacity of the adriamycin or the ethanol iodized oil emulsion in the portal venous were increased in the experimental groups rather than that in the control groups. The area of the tumor necrosis with the adriamycin iodized oil emulsion was less than that of the ethsnol iodized oil emulsion; (3) Scanning electron microscopy results: within one week, the rough-surfaced reticulum showed a hydropic degeneration. There might be lipodol drop in the tumor nuceus, which appeared karyorrhesis. Conclusion The area of the tumor necrosis with the ethanol iodized oil emulsion is larger than that of the adriamycin iodized oil emulsion. TACE-THVO may be a effective therapy for the hepatoma.

Objective To investigate human plasma glycoproteomie changes related to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection,and to identify glycoproteins with potential anti-HIV activity or anti-HIV drug targets. Methods Plasma proteins with lower abundance were enriched through affinity purification to remove albumin and IgG in clinical samples (HIV-positive patient, n= 10, and healthy controls, n= 20). Proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and stained by Pro-Q emerald glycoprotein stain kits. The 2-DE image was analyzed by ImageMaster software to find differential glycoproteins. Furthermore, the depleted HIV-positive and healthy control plasma proteins were digested by PNGase F. Glycoproteins were deglycoliszed, separated by 2-DE and analyzed by ImageMaster software. Differential glycoproteins were identified by liquid chromatography combined with high capacity ion trap mass spectrometry (HCT). Results The pretreatment of HIV-positive plasma prior to 2-DE could efficiently remove the high aboundant albumin and IgG in plasma and improve the detection of proteins with low-abundance. High revolution 2-DE gel images of glycoproteins from HIV positive and healthy control plasma samples were obtained. Glycoproteins were successfully deglycolized through PNGase F treatment. Thirteen differential glycoproteins were identified by liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry. These proteins included alphalantitrypsin precursor and serine/threonine-protein kinase N1. Conclusions Potential HIV infection related proteins,such as alphal-antitrypsin precursor are successfully identified. Our study may offer some help to understand the molecular mechanism of HIV infection and select new drug targets for preventing HIV infection.

Objective To investigate the ability of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) for differentiating benign from malignant solid adnexal tumors. Methods One-hundred and six patients (114 tumors) with surgically and histologically proven solid adnexal tumors (44 benign, 70 malignant) underwent conventional MR imaging and 1H-MRS. Single-voxel spectroscopy was performed using the point resolved spectroscopy localization technique with a voxel size of 2.0 cm × 2.0 cm × 2.0 cm. Resonance peak integrals of choline (Cho), N-acetyl aspartate (NAA), creatine (Cr), lactate (Lac), and lipid (Lip) were analyzed and the Cho/Cr, NAA/Cr, Lac/Cr and Lip/Cr ratios were recorded and compared between benign and malignant tumors using independent two-sample t test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of Cho/Cr ratio for differentiating benign from malignant tumors. Results A Cho peak was detected in all 114 tumors, NAA peak in 112 tumors (43 benign and 69 malignant), Lip peak in 70 tumors (21 benign and 49 malignant), and Lac peak in 16 tumors (7 benign and 9 malignant). The Cho/Cr and Lip/Cr ratios were 4.8±2.5, 6.4±4.0 in benign versus 9.6 ± 3.3, 10.5 ± 4.6 in malignant solid adnexal tumors, respectively, with a statistically significant difference (t values were-8.826 and-2.915,P<0.05). The NAA/Cr ratio were 1.4 ± 0.7 in benign versus 1.6 ± 1.0 in
malignant solid adnexal tumors, with no statistically significant difference (t=-1.523,P>0.05). When the Cho/Cr threshold was 7.2 for differentiating between benign and malignant tumors, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy were 80.0%(56/70),88.6%(39/44) and 83.3%(95/114) respectively. Conclusions The 1H-MRS patterns of benign and malignant solid adnexal tumors differ. The Cho/Cr ratio can help clinicians differentiate benign from malignant tumors.
