Objective To construct a recombinant lentiviral vector for HCV core-Ant and then study its effect on the transdifferentiation of hepatic stem cells. Methods The HCV core-Ant was obtained by PCR of two primers template with each other and T-vector cloning method,and then subcloned to pLenti6/V5-D-TOPO. The restriction endonuclease and T4 DNA ligase were used to construct the vector. pLenti6/V5-D-HCV core-Ant and the ViraPowerTM PackagingMix (containing three packaging plasmids pLP1,pLP2 and pLP/VSVG) were cotransfected into 293ET cells to produce replication in competent lentivirus after transfection. The viral supernatant on 293T cells was collected. The expression of the lentiviral vector containing HCV core-Ant in Hela cells was measured by immunohistochemistry. Then we constructed the lentiviral vector containing green flurosecent protein by the similar method,and the titers were determined. Results HCV core-Ant was identified and analyzed by restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing,respectively. The expression of the recombinant lentiviral vector plasmid containing HCV core-Ant in Hela cells was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The 3T3 cells transfected the lentiviral vector containing green flurosecent protein were found to show strong expression of GFP,which confirmed that the four-plasmid system of the lentiviral vector was successfully constructed. Conclusion The recombinant lentiviral vector expressing HCV core-Ant was successfully constructed by molecular cloning and recombination techniques in vitro,which will be beneficial to guiding further study on gene therapy of cancer.

Objective To assess the differences in the specificity and the sensitivity in detecting specific IgM by indirect ELISA and capturing-ELISA methods,and to analyze the possible causes of those differences.Methods The HBc-IgM and EHF-IgM level in serum samples from activity Hepatitis B patients and hemorrhagic fever patients with renal syndrome were determined by both indirect-ELISA and capturing-ELISA methods,and the differences in the positive rate,positive threshold value and the specificity between those two methods were compared. Results Specific murine IgM diluted in PBS were detected by indirect-ELISA and capturing-ELISA,and the specificity and sensitivity of those two methods were similar.Results showed that sensitivity of indirect-ELISA was lower than capturing-ELISA in detecting specific IgM in serum from patients with activity Hepatitis B and hemorrhagic fever patients with renal syndrome.The IgM level in hepatitis B and hemorrhagic group treated with thioglycol became negative detected by those two methods,suggesting that both of them have the anti-IgM epitope-specificity.Cross reaction results demonstrated that the reagent detecting IgM from the two methods had the specificity to the specific antigen. Conclusion It is recommended to detect IgM level by capturing-ELISA method for the early diagnosis of acute infectious disease,pathological changes,immune reaction and prognoses of chronic continuous infectious disease.Applying the indirect-ELISA method to detect IgM level to diagnose acute infectious disease is to discuss in the future.

Objective To evaluate the ability of further discriminating diagnosis of the headchest lead electrocardiogram (HCECG) in elderly patients with abnormal Q waves in routine lead electrocardiogram (RLECG) in inferior lead. Methods The 55 male patients, aged 65-88 years,with abnormal Q waves in both lead Ⅲ and aVF were selected and divided into two groups: myocardial infarction (MI) group and non-MI group, according to if the patient had a history of acute MI. All the patients accepted examination of coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and ultrasound cardiogram, those with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and myocardial hypertrophy were excluded.The 30 individuals of control group had no abnormal Q waves in lead Ⅱ , Ⅲ and aVF. HCECG and RLECG were recorded simultaneously in respective groups and occurrence rate of Q waves in correlative leads Ⅱ, Ⅲ, aVF and HL3, H0, HR3 were matched and compared, sensitivity and specificity were compared in respective leads. Results There were serious stenosis in 22 patients (100%) in MI group, and there were mild stenosis in 10 (30. 3%) and moderate stenosis in 23 patients (69.7%) in non-MI group. There was no significant difference between HCECG and RLECG in occurrence rate of Q waves in MI group (P> 0. 05 ). Non-MI group left anterior axillary line, Ⅱ ,Ⅲ, right anterior axillary line, near the anterior midline, aVF without Q wave and exclusion of old MI diagnostic specificity were 100%, 97.0%(32/33), 97.0% (32/33), 15.2% (5/33), 100%, 39.4%( 13/33)respectively. Conclusions Pseudo-changes are rarely found in HCECG and there is a higher degree of conformity in HCECG with coronary lesions, therefore HCECG may be used to discriminate whether the inferior abnormal Q waves occurred in RLECG are truly abnormal or not.
