Objective To explore the clinical and pathological features of the autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) overlap syndrome (AIH-PBC overlap syndrome). Methods The clinical data and liver biopsy specimens from 17 cases of the AIH-PBC overlap syndrome were analyzed and compared with 117 cases of AIH and 85 cases of PBC. The pathological features were as analyzed by histological observation and immunohistochemical staining for CK19, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD25, CD57 and CD68 in the biopsy liver tissues. Results Of the cases of autoimmune liver disease in this study, 8.4% were diagnosed as AIH-PBC overlap syndrome based on clinical, biochemical, serological and pathological examinations. Among the overlap syndrome cases, the females were in predominance (male∶female was 1∶8.5), and the median age of the patients presenting the clinical onset signs was 39.3 years, and the serological double-positive autoantibodies of ANA and AMA-M2 occupied 52.9%(9/17). Serum levels of ALT, ALP, ?-Glo, AST, TBIL, IgG and IgM were higher in patients with overlap syndrome than those in patients with AIH or PBC, respectively. The pathological findings in the biopsy liver tissues from the patients with overlap syndrome included moderate to severe interface hepatitis with plasma cell predominated mixed-inflammatory cells infiltration in hepatic and portal tracts, as well as the damage and obvious reactive proliferation of small bile ducts. Meanwhile, the amounts of CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD25, CD57 and CD68 positive mononuclear cells increased in the overlap syndrome liver tissues compared with those in single PBC or AIH cases. Conclusion AIH-PBC overlap syndrome is not frequent (8.4%) in this study, but exist among autoimmune liver diseases in China. This overlap syndrome presented both clinical and pathological features of AIH and PBC, and cellular immune mediated injuries might be pivotal role in pathogenesis.

Objective To explore the status of immune responses in the lungs and the changes in lymphocyte subgroups in the immune organs in a patient having been suffered from severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Methods The distribution and number of lymphocyte subgroups in the lungs and immune organs from an autopsy case of SARS were analyzed by using immunochemical staining with an array of monoclonal antibodies including CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, CD57, CD68, S-100 and HLA-DR. Healthy spleen and lymph nodes were used as normal controls. Results CD8 + T lymphocytes constituted the major component of infiltration of inflammatory cells in the pulmonary interstitium. A semi-quantitative analysis of lymphocyte subgroups revealed that the percentage of CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + or CD20 + lymphocyte in a total of 31 thoracic lymph nodes of the SARS case were decreased by 74.2%, 67.7%, 74.2%, and 83.9%, respectively, compared with healthy controls. However, the percentages of lymphocyte subgroups in the celiac lymph nodes were less decreased than those in thoracic lymph nodes. The numbers of CD20 + , CD3 +, CD4 + and CD8 + lymphocytes were also decreased. CD20 + lymphocyte were notably decreased in the spleen, while CD57 +, CD68 +, S-100 + and HLA-DR + cells were increased relatively in the lymph nodes and spleen. Conclusions The results suggested that cellular immune responses were predominant in the lung of SARS patient, and it might play an important role in getting rid of coronaviruses in the infected cells and inducing immune mediated injuries to the lungs. There might be a decrease in number and imbalance in various degrees in the proportion of lymphocyte subgroups in the immune organs of the patients with severe SARS, and these changes might have a tendency to be more remarkable in lymphatic tissue situated closer to the lungs.

Objective To explore the significance of cellular apoptosis induced by severe acute respiratory syndrome cronovirus (SARS-CoV) in the pathogenesis of SARS. Methods TdT-mediated biotinylated-dUTP nick end ladelling method (TUNEL), and the double immunochemical staining with cytokeratin and CD3, CD8, CD20 and CD68 monoclonal antibodies were used to study the cellular apoptosis in tissue specimens from six patients who died from SARS. Meanwhile, the expression of Fas, Fas ligand (FasL), P53 and Bcl-2 proteins was detected by immunohistochemical method. Results The number of cellular apoptosis was obviously increased in multiple organs from the six patients died from SARS. The cellular apoptosis occurred predominantly in cytokeratin-positive pneumoncytes, terminal bronchiolar epithelium, CD3 + and CD8 + lymphocytes, as well as a part of CD20 + lymphocytes and CD68 + macrophages. Fas protein was mainly expressed in the infiltrated mononuclear cells, while FasL was chiefly expressed in SARS-CoV target cells, especially in the apoptotic cells. In the lung and immune organs, down-regulation of P53 and Bcl-2 expression was found. Conclusion The occurrence of increased and rapid cell apoptosis induced by SARS-CoV might be the main cause of the injuries to the lung and immune system. That the activated lymphocytes which expressed Fas and FasL attack SARS-CoV target cells might be the underlying mechanism of cell apoptosis in SARS. Down-expression of Bcl-2 and P53 proteins might also participate in cell apoptosis induced by SARS-CoV.

Objective To assess the efficacy of extensive esophagogastric devascularization with splenectomy for surgical treatment of portal hypertension complicating cirrhosis of liver, and to explore the pathogenesis of chronic congestive splenomegaly. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 232 patients of portal hypertension complicating cirrhosis of liver having undergone extensive esophagogastric devascularization with splenectomy was made. Pathological alterations and extracellular matrix productive cells of the congestive splenomegaly were studied both immunohistochemically and histologically. Results The functional markers including the numbers of PLT, WBC, and PTA in the peripheral blood and serum Alb were significantly improved after the operation compared with that of before the operation. Careful pre-operation preparation, replenishment of blood loss during the operation, postoperative drainage of the splenic bed, and prevention of complications were efficiently carried out. The mean volume of CCS spleens was 1 423.67?738.69cm 3. There was an obvious increase in the numbers of vimentin-, ?-SMA-positive cells in the CCS tissues, as well as CD68-positive macrophages. Conclusions The results indicated that extensive esophagogastric devascularization with splenectomy was a reasonably effective alternative therapy for patients with portal hypertension complicated by esophageal varices and congestive splenomegaly. Adequate replacement of blood lost in prevention of operation and postoperative complications were essential for satisfactory recovery of the petient. The activation of macrophagic system, with proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts, might participate in the pathogenesis of congestive splenomegaly.
