Objective:To amplify full-length expressing sequence of human granzyme B(GrB) and perforin(PFP) firstly,then to construct a co-expression vector of pVAX1-PIG and to analyze the expression of human GrB and PFP in Hep-2 cells.Methods:The human PFP and GrB expressing sequences were amplified by RT-PCR.The expression vector pVAX1-PIG was constructed.The recombinant vector was transfected into human Hep-2 cells and their expressions were detected by RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescent antibody assay.Results:The GrB and PFP cDNA fragment were cloned into the vector of pVAX1 in the right direction.The target proteins were detected in the transfected Hep-2 cells.Conclusion:The vector of pVAX1-PIG was constructed successfully and expressed in Hep-2 cells line.The perforin/granzyme B protein can induce cell apoptosis.These results provide some foundation in gene therapy for tumor by making use of PFP and GrB gene.

Objective To explore the management alternatives to tr aumatic periprosthetic femoral fractures after hip replacement. Metho ds A retrospective analysis was done on five cases of traumatic perip rosthetic femoral fractures posterior to hip replacement admitted in from June 1 998 to June 2003. There were two males and three females, with age range of 52- 71 years (average 59 years). One case suffered from traffic accident and the oth er four from slipping. Three cases had received hip replacement for femoral head aseptic necrosis, the other two for femoral neck non-union. Total hip replacem ent was carried out in four cases (five hips) and femoral head replacement in on e. These traumatic periprosthetic fractures occurred from one month to 17 years after hip replacement. According to classification to periprosthetic fracture of Vancouver (1995), there were 3 cases of type B and 2 type C. Two cases (one cas e of type B and one type C) were treated with traction and conservative treatmen ts, two (type B) with long shaft prosthesis revision combined with shape memory saw tooth embracing fixator or wires and one (type C) with anatomical plate inte rnal fixation. Results All 5 cases were followed up for f rom two months to five years and attained fracture union with no complications s uch as infection, nonunion or fixation breakage. Conclusions Traumatic periprosthetic femoral fractures after hip replacement are hard to deal with. The management alternatives differ according to fracture site, prost hesis loosening, bone quality and general status of patients. Classification cri teria and corresponding managements of periprosthetic fractures of Vancouver are proved to be suitable guidelines.

Objective To investigate the regulation of immune function in patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) by the secretion of T cell 1 (Th1) gamma interferon gamma (IFN-γ) in patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Methods From January 2011 to January 2014, 20 cases of laboratory-confirmed AIDS patients were collected for research. Patients with AIDS received highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART group), while 20 healthy volunteers were selected as control group. Before receiving highly active anti-retroviral treatment in six months and 12 months , the patients with AIDS were collected in blood study of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in separated culture group and IFN-γ co-culture group for testing culture differential expression of cytokines and immune cells in solution. Results Before treatment in 6 months and 12 months , the supernatants in the cultured alone group and IFN-γ co-culture group by IL-12, IL-21 levels were significantly lower than that in the healthy group (P < 0.05); After treatment in 6 months and 12 months , the supernatants in the IFN-γ co-culture group by IL-12 and IL-21 levels were significantly higher than that in the cultured alone group (PP < 0.05). Before treatment in 6 months and 12 months,the level of IP-10 and CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3Treg cells in the cultured alone group and IFN-γ co-culture group, were significantly higher than the healthy group (P < 0.05); After treatment in 6 months and 12 months, the supernatant in the IFN-γ co-culture group was significantly higher than the average in the cultured alone group in IP-10; CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3Treg cells in the IFN-γ co-culture group were significantly lower than that in the cultured alone group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Patients with AIDS received highly active anti-retroviral therapy can improve the immunity. IFN-γ may further stimulate the secretion of immune cytokine in patients with AIDS.

Objective To explore the relationship between cervical lesions in patients with high -risk human papilloma virus(HPV)infection and serum interleukin -1 beta(IL -1 ),interleukin 2(IL -2),interleukin 10(IL -10).Methods 180 cases of cervical lesions were treated in our hospital from August 2013 to August 2015. Among them,105 cases were infected with HPV,and 75 cases were not infected by HPV.The serum levels of IL -2, IL -10 and IL -1βwere observed in two groups,and compared the levels of serum IL -2,IL -10 and IL -1βin patients with different DNA hr -HPV load,the correlation between DNA hr -HPV load and IL -1β,IL -2 and IL -10 levels was analyzed.Results The levels of IL -1β,IL -10,IL -2 were (0.85 ±0.23)ng/L,(182.35 ± 10.02)ng/L,(38.97 ±5.23)ng/L in patients with HPV infection,the levels of IL -1β,IL -10,IL -2 in patients without HPV infection were (0.62 ±0.18)ng/L,(305.42 ±11.13)ng/L,(25.18 ±3.16)ng/L.The levels of IL -1β,IL -10 were significantly higher in HPV group than in without HPV infection group,the level of IL -2 in HPV group was significantly lower than that of uninfected HPV group,and the differences were statistically significant (t =7.222,20.328,-7.558,all P <0.01).There were significant differences in the load of DNA hr -HPV between different pathological changes of cervical lesions,and the DNA hr -HPV load increased significantly with the increase of the degree of disease(t =6.214,19.097,33.906,6.952,6.274,all P <0.05).IL -1βand IL -10 levels from high to low were DNA hr -HPV load volume >1 000,100 -1 000 and <100,IL -2 levels from high to low were DNA hr -HPV load <100,100 -1 000 and >1 000.DNA hr -HPV load was positively correlated with serum IL -1βand IL -10 levels in patients with cervical lesions and HPV infection(r =0.452,0.422,P =0.035,0.019),and nega-tively correlated with IL -2 level(r =-0.398,P =0.027).Conclusion hr -HPV infection is closely correlated with serum IL -1β,IL -2,IL -10 levels in cervical lesions patients,IL -1,IL -2 and IL -10 can be used as impor-tant index for clinical monitoring.
