Objective To explore the clinical effect and side-effect of oxaliplatin(L-OHP)-containing regimen and cisplatin (DDP)-containing regimen in TACE of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods 108 patients with advanced HCC were randomly divided into experimental group(n=55) and control group (n =53). The experimental group were treated with TACE using L-OHP. After dilute with glucose solution, L-OHP(130 mg/m2) and FT207 (500-750 mg/m2) were injected into blood vessel respectively. ADM (40 mg/m2) and LP (10~30 ml) were emulsified and then used for vessel embolism according to the size of focus. The control group received TACE with DDP, DDP (40 mg/m2) and F]'207(500~750 mg,/m2) were diluted with glucose solution, and also according to the size of tumor' s focus, ADM(40 mg/m2) and LP(10~30 ml) were emulsified for vessel embolism, and then diuretic. Results The total effective rate of experimental group was 67.3 % (37/55), and that of control group was 47.2 % (25/53), and the difference was with statistical significance (P <0.05). The descent rate of AFP of experimental group was 73.1%(31/43), and that of control group was 44.7 % (17/38), and the difference was with statistical significance (P <0.05). The main side effects were gastrointestinal reactions, the incidence rate of nausea and vomiting in experimental group were lower than control group, and the difference was with statistical significance. The incidence rate of leucopenia, damage of hepatic function and peripheral neuritis were not significant. Damage of heart and kidney were not found in the two sets. Conclusion L-OHP -containing regimen in TACE of advanced HCC is an efficient method, with good security and good tolerance to patients.

This study aimed to modify the mixed and purified culture of rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in vitro. The retinae of 1-3 day old Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were separated bluntly into two layers: inner layer and outer layer, under a surgical microscope. Retinal cells isolated from different layers (inner layer, outer layer and whole retinal tissue) by using enzyme dissociation method were cultured in F12/DMEM medium containing 15% FBS. After 3-day culture, the RGCs in the retinal cells obtained from mixed culture of inner, outer, and whole retinal tissue were identified by immunocytochemical staining of Thy-1.1, and the rate of RGCs to retinal cells (RGCs%) was calculated. Two monoclonal antibodies, anti-macrophages/granulocytes (OX-41) against rat macrophage and antibody against rat Thy-1.1 (OX-7), were used to purify RGCs by either a conventional or modified two-stepped immunopanning procedure (purification in situ). Purified RGCs were seeded at different cell density and cultured in F12/DMEM medium containing 15% FBS. Immunocytochemical staining for Thy-1.1, MTT, and PI-Hoechst33342 fluorescence imaging were used to identify the purity and the viability of RGCs in purified culture of RGCs. The results showed: (1) Immunocytochemistry of different retinal tissue layers culture revealed that the RGCs% was (19.9±1.2)%, (0.5±0.2)%, and (6.2±1.7)% respectively in the mixed culture of inner, outer, and whole retinal tissue, with differences being significant (P<0.05); (2) fluorescent double staining of Hoechst33342 and PI indicated that with the same RGCs%, RGCs obtained from purification in situ grew well with more neurite outgrowth than those by the conventional two-stepped immunopanning method; (3) the viability of purified RGCs seeded at high density was increased and the cells developed complex intercellular networks. The viability of RGCs was declined with the decreasing seeding density, and most cells presented round or oval in shape with thin neurites. It was concluded that: (1) RGCs% in the inner layer retina was higher than that in the outer layer retina; (2) RGCs obtained by in situ purification had more neurite outgrowth and lower mortality than those by conventional two-stepped immunopanning procedure; (3) the viability of purified RGCs could be increased by increasing cell seeding density to some extent.

Objective To study the comparability of total prostate specific antigen ( tPSA) meas-urement by four domestic chemiluminescence immunoassays ( DCI) and electrochemiluminescence immuno-assay ( ECI) . Methods A total of 45 serum samples that requested tPSA tests were selected. Four DCIs ( Snibe MAGLUMI 4000, Mindray CL-2000i, Autobio A2000, HYBIOME AE180) and ECI ( Roche Cobas e601) were used to measure tPSA. The precisions of the methods were evaluated. The four DCIs were com-pared with Roche ECI respectively, and the comparability of the test results was analyzed. Wilcoxon signed rank test and Spearman correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. Results The precisions of five methods were good. The tPSA levels measured by Roche Cobas e601, Snibe MAGLUMI 4000, Mindray CL-2000i, Autobio A2000, and HYBIOME AE180 were 14.11(9.92, 36.09), 12.00(8.56, 27.23), 12.10 (8. 60, 29.87), 13.35(9.51, 32.85) and 14.50(9.88, 40.06) μg/L, respectively. The correlation coeffi-cients of Roche with Snibe MAGLUMI 4000, Mindray CL-2000i, and Autobio A2000 were 0.992, 0.989, 0. 957 and 0.983, respectively (all P<0.001). Assuming the tPSA medical decision point for regression equation was 4.0μg/L, the proportional biases of Snibe MAGLUMI 4000, Mindray CL-2000i, Autobio A2000, and HYBIOME AE180 compared with Roche were -10. 88%, -18. 07%, 0. 23% and 22. 31%, respectively. Conclusion The comparability of tPSA test results is different between 4 DCIs and Roche ECI, which pro-vides some references for clinical application and standardization of the DCI test results.

Objective To validate the performance of 4 domestic chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) systems on 8 tumor markers quantitative assay kits. Methods Four domestic CLIA systems were randomly marked as A, B, C, D and 8 tumor markers, including carbohydrate antigen (CA)125, CA15-3, CA19-9, ferritin (Fer), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), prostate-specific an-tigen (PSA) and free PSA (fPSA) were determined. According to the standard of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), the precision, methodological comparison and analytical measure range of 4 systems were validated. Clinical serum samples were obtained from patients in Suzhou Hospital. According to the CLSI EP9-A3 protocol, imported equipment was used as the reference system. The biases of medical de-cision points were assumed, and Pearson correlation analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. Results The precision verification of CA125 and PSA on A, CA125 and AFP on B, CA125, CEA, AFP and PSA on C, and all 8 tumor markers on D could meet the laboratory quality control requirements. The correlations of the test results between A-D and the imported equipment were significant (all P<0.05) with the correlation coefficients 0.79-0.99, 0.47-0.99, 0.90-0.98 and 0.78-1.00, respec-tively, and the number of acceptable tests at the level of medical decision was 5, 2, 5, 4. All tests were certified to meet the analytical measure range validation. Conclusions The detection performance of 4 do-mestic CLIA systems for all 8 tumor markers are different. The performance of domestic CLIA systems should be tested when choosing one that can meet laboratory quality control requirements.

Objective:
To establish primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) animal model induced by anti-platelet membrane glycoprotein GPⅠbα antibodies AN51 and R300.
Methods:
Twenty guinea pigs (6-8 week) were divided into 4 groups. Five guinea pigs in each group were intravenously injected with different doses of AN51 (0.05, 0.1, 0.2 μg/g) and 0.2 μg/g IgG as control. The whole blood was collected from inner angular venous plexus. Platelets number was determined by an automated cell counter and Swiss-Jim method. Then, the similar protocol was used to establish ITP nude mice model by intraperitoneal injection of different concentrations of anti-platelet GPⅠbα antibody R300, respectively.
Results:
①Five minutes after intravenous injection of AN51 at 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 μg/g, the platelet counts of guinea pigs reduced about 0-5%, 50%-60% and 70%-80% compared to the control group, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (
