Objective To investigate the effect of cryotherapy of employing Argon/Helium assisted with TACE for the unresectable primary liver carcinoma. Methods 124 cases with primary liver carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups:60 cases were treated by TACE and cryotherapy; the other 64 cases were simply done by TACE as control. In general, TACE was undertaken once a month and altogether three times for a course. Cryotherapy was undergone 1-3 times for a course. Results The total effective rates (CR+PR) were 45.3% for the control group and 68.3% for the combined therapy group, with an obvious difference between the two groups, 0.5,1,1.5 years survival rate were 81.3%,62.5%,43.8% respectively in the control group;93.3%,83.3%,63.3% respectively for the combined group. There was an obvious difference between the two groups of 1,1.5 years of survival rates. Conclusions Cryotherapy of employing Argon/Helium assisted with TACE for the unresectable primary liver carcinoma is feasible with raising the effective rate and prolonging survival time.

Objective To observe the expression of TLR4 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 after transient and stable HBV genome transfection. Methods Immunofluorescence flow cytometry was used to detect mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of TLR4 and TLR4 positive cell percentage in hepetocellular carcinoma cell lines HepG2 and HepG2. 2.15. Various doses of HBV DNA plasmid were transfected into HepG2 cells with lipefectamine 2000. Immunofluoroscenee flow cytometry was used to detect MFI of TLR4 and TLR4 positive ceil rate of infected HepG2 ceils. Trypan blue staining was used to examine the sum of living cells. Results MFI of TLR4 and TLR4 positive cell rate of HepG2.2.15 cells were significantly higher than those in HepG2 cells (both P' <0. Ol). MFI of TLR4 and TLR4 positive cell rate of HepG2 cells transfected by various doses of HBV DNA were significantly higher than those in control group (all P' < 0. 01). MFI of TLR4 and TLR4 positive cell rate of infected HepG2 cells were positively correlated with the doses of HBV DNA (both P' <0. 01) and negatively correlated with the sum of living cells (both P' <0. 01). Conclusions Enhanced expression of TLR4 appeared in HepG2 cells with both transient and stable HBV infection, along with reduction of living cells.

OBJECTIVE To compare the difference of methods for active systemic anaphylactic reaction induced by breviscapine injection between ″Pharmacopoeia″ 2010 edition, an Attached ⅫG in Traditional Chinese Medicine lnjection Safety Test Application Guidelines ″ Anaphylactic Reaction Test″(thereafter referred to as the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″) and the Traditional Chinese Medicine, Natural Medicine lmmune Toxicity (Anaphylaxis, Anaphylactic Reaction of Light) Technology Guiding Principles in the 2005 Version (thereafter referred to as the method of ″Guiding Principle″) and provide reference for non-clinical safety evaluation of drugs. METHODS According to the methods of ″Pharmacopoeia″and ″Guiding Principle″, respectively, the effect of breviscapine injection on active systemic anaphylactic reaction of guinea pigs was investigated. The guinea pigs were divided into four groups, negative control group, positive control group, breviscapine injection 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 groups. ln the sensitization phase, the guinea pigs were ip administrered with breviscapine injection 0.5 mL each every other day for 3 times. The dose was 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 , respectively. For the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″, on the 14th and 21st days after the first sensitization, the guinea pigs were iv administrered with breviscapine injec-tion 1 mL. For the method of ″Guiding Principle″, the guinea pigs were provocated on the 12th day after the first sensitization. Each group was studied by observing the symptom of anaphylactic reaction and immune time. RESULTS For the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″, on the 14th day after the first sensitization, there was 1 guinea pig with sneezing and (or) the nose-scratching at different time in the 5 mg.kg-1 group. ln the 50 mg.kg-1 group, there was one or two cases of sneezing and (or) 1 case of nose-scratc-hing. The 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 dose groups conformed to the regulations. On the 21st day after the first sensitization, trembling occurred in the 5 mg.kg-1 group, with 1 or 2 guinea pigs sneezing and ( or) scratching the nose. There were 4 guinea pigs (4/ 4) with sneezing 1 and 3 times, cough once or twice, 1 scratching nose and urination at different time, and 1 guinea pigs (1/ 4) appeared 3 times consecutive sneezing and shivering in 50 mg.kg-1 group. The 5 mg.kg-1 group conformed to the regulations, while the 50 mg.kg-1 group did not. For the method of ″Guiding Principle″, the 5 mg.kg-1 group was weak positive or positive, with different degrees of symptoms of an anaphylactic reaction, including 3 guinea pigs scratched nasal symptoms. And the 50 mg.kg-1 group of anaphylactic symptoms including scratc-hing nose, sneezing, coughing and (or) urination, showed positive. CONCLUSION During the active systemic anaphylactic reaction of drugs non-clinical safety evaluation of drugs the advantage of either method should be brought into play. The method of ″ Pharmacopoeia″ may be used for preliminary screening of test samples. ln case pf suspected reactions, the method of ″Guiding Principle″ should be used for more detailed observations.

Objective To measure stress distribution of the main bone architecture of the normal adult cadaveric foot and discuss the effect of plantar ligament injury on stress distribution. Methods Seven fresh adult cadaveric feet were used and 10 strain gauges attached to the bones of the longitudinal foot arch,including the calcaneus,navicular,medial cuneiform,1-5 metatarsal trunk,the distal part of the tibia and fibular,respectively.After the loading Was added to 700 N by almighty test machine,resistance strainmeter was used to measure surface strain of these bones.The results were processed statistically. Results The strain was varied based on different bone segments attached and increased with loading.Tensile force was always found at the medial part of the navicular,the distal part of the tibia and fibular,while the others showed compression all the time.Peak strain was found at calcaneus.followed by the second and third metatarsal.Strain on the surface of the bone segments changed greatly with different ligament injury(P<0.05).Conclusion The bone surface stress of the longitudinal foot arch changes significantly when the plantar ligament is injured.

Objective To investigate the changes and clinical correlation of IL-4 in patients with HBV infection.Methods Sixty cases with chronic asymptomatic HBV carriers,60 cases with chronic hepatitis B,60 cases with liver cirrhosis,60 cases with hepato-cellular carcinoma and 50 healthy controls were collected for serum.ELISA was used for detection of cytokine IL-4 levels;The a-mount of HBV DNA was measured by fluorescence quantitative PCR;Liver function was tested by automatic biochemical analyzer. Results Compared with the healthy controls[(1.64±0.17)ng/mL],IL-4 levels of patients with CHB,LC and HCC were signifi-cantly increased[(4.18±0.48),(4.71±0.42),(3.62±0.31)ng/mL,P <0.05].LC group have the highest IL-4 levels,while ASC was the lowest.Compared with the ASC group,IL-4 levels of patients with CHB,LC and HCC were significantly increased(P <0.05).Compared with the HCC group,IL-4 levels of patients with LC were significantly increased(P <0.05).IL-4 level was posi-tively correlated with TBIL levels in LC patients(r=0.529,P <0.01),while the IL-4 level was positively correlated with ALT and TBIL level in HCC patients(r=0.263,0.323,P <0.05).Conclusion IL-4 may play an important role in chronic HBV infection, the levels of IL-4 can be used as an important indicator to assess the severity of chronic hepatitis B.
