Objective To study the significance of antibody to double-stranded DNA (anti- dsDNA) in autoimmune hepatitis(AIH). Methods Anti-dsDNA were detected by immunological blotting. According to the anti-dsDNA, the patients were separated two groups: anti-dsDNA positive group and anti-dsDNA negative group. The clinical characteristics were compared between anti-dsDNA positive AIH group and negative group. Results Among the 43 serum samples, 13 (30.23%) eases with anti-dsDNA positive were found. The average level of AST(aspartate aminotransferase) and TBIL(total bilirubin) were (647.56 ±529.77) IU/L and (10.81± 8.08) rag/L, respectively, which was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). PTA (prothrombin activity) was 75.72%± 30.23 %, lower than that of the control group(P < 0.05). The liver cirrhosis rate in the anti-dsDNA positive AIH group was 61.5% (8/13), ,significantly higher than that of the control group. The time from the onset to liver cirrhosis was significantly shorter in an- ti-dsDNA positive AIH group than that of control group by the survival analysis and log rank test (P = 0. 0074). Conclusion AIH patients with anti-dsDNA positive generally associate with the serious liver damage, and prognosis is worse.

Objective To investigate the significance of antibody to Ro-52 in patients with autoim-mune liver disease(AILD). Methods One hundred and fifteen patients with abnormal liver functions, who had anti-Ro-52 detection by immunological blotting, were reviewed retrospectively. According to types of AILD, the clinical features were compared between patients with and without anti-Ro-52, respectively, κ test of concordance was used to provide a chance-corrected valve for immune-serological results. Results The rates of anti-Ro-52 in autoimmune hepatitis( AIH), primary sclerosing cholangitis(PBC) and AIH/PBC o-verlap syndrome groups were 32.43%, 24.56% and 33.33%, respectively, there were no significant differ-enees among three groups ( x2 = 0. 949, P >0. 05). The rate of anti-soluble hver antigen/liver-pancreas ( an-ti-SLA/LP) in AIH patients with anti-Ro-52 (58.33%) was higher than AIH patients without anti-Ro-52 ( 16.00% ,P < 0.05 ). The rate of anti-SLA/LP in AIH/PBC overlap syndrome patients with anti-Ro-52 (85.71%) was also higher than that of control group (28.57% ,P <0.05). Anti-Ro-52 and anti-SLA/LP had concordance according to κ test( κ >0.40, P <0.05). The average level of IgG in AIH/PBC overlap syndrome patients with anti-Ro-52 was higher than patients without anti-Ro-52 ( t = 2. 508, P < 0.05 ). Conclusion The rates of anti-Ro-52 in AIH, PBC and AIH/PBC overlap syndrome were of no significant differences. Anti-Ro-52 may have correlation with anti-SLA/LP. AIH/PBC overlap syndrome patients with anti-Ro-52 shewed higher IgG level than patients without anti-Ro-52.

Objective To analyze the feature of SLA specific T cell response in AIH. Methods Thirtyone cases of AIH were enrolled by investigating T-cell reactivity against chemically synthesized peptides spanning the full SLA protein using ELISpot. The 31 cases of AIH included 10 anti-SLA/LP positive cases and 21 negative cases. The control groups included 30 PBC patients, 29 chronic viral hepatitis patients and 30 healthy cases. The secretion of IFN-γ after PBMC stimulated by SLA peptides was observed. Results Eighteen of 31 cases with AIH [56. 08 % ( 18/31 ) ] showed the positive response to SLA peptide pools, and only 1 of 30 patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (3.34%) and 1 of 29 patients with virus hepatitis ( 3.44% ), could be elicited responses by SLA peptide pools. There wasn't positive response in healthy eases. The response frequency to SLA peptides in AIH group was significantly higher than those in PBC cases, chronic viral hepatitis cases and healthy cases (X2 = 21. 295, 20. 655, 15.988, P < 0. 01 ). Amongst 18 AIH patients with positive responds to SLA pool, 8 antigen clusters including aa 1-44, aa 57-132, an 129-180,aa 177-196, aa 193-244, aa 241-268, aa 281-308 and aa 321-428 were highlighted. The mean number of recognized peptides was 6 (2-17), indicating the polyclonal feature. Fourteen of 18 AIH patients with positive response to SLA peptides were subjected to live function test simultaneously when PBMC were collected. There was significant correlation between the breadth of recognized poptides and AST ( logarithm, r = 0. 539, P = 0. 045). Conclusions SLA peptides can induce PBMC in peripheral blood of AIH patients to secrete IFN-γ and it is polyclonal response. The breadth of recognized peptides may reflect the degree of liver inflammation.

Objective To study the variation and characteristics of HIV-1 tat exon 1 gene from a patient with AIDS dementia complex( ADC), so as to research the pathogenesis of ADC. Methods The tat gene was amplified with nested PCR from genomic DNA which was extracted from lymph node, spleen and different brain tissues( meninges, grey matter from frontal cortex, white matter from frontal cortex, temporal cortex and basal ganglia) of a patient who died of ADC. PCR products were cloned into the pGEM-T vector,after transformation and selection by ampicillin and blue/white spotting. Five of positive clones were sequenced. HIV-1 tat sequences were processed with BioEdit and MEGA4. With the softwares, Neighbor-Joining tree, p-Distances, values of ds/dn, and analysis of amino acid motifs were all done. Results The samples were all identified as HIV-1 B and genetic variation exists in HIV-1 tat isolated from different tissue;Compared with HXB2, sixteen sites of the amino acid seque nce coded by the HIV-1 tat gene which was isolated from the patient changed. In addition, part of the changes were different between periphery and brain,especially, the five Q54R changes from basal ganglia and one Q54R change from temporal cortex are deserve to follow with interest. Conclusion Variations exist in the HIV-1 tat genes extracted from the ADC patient and the variations from peripheral and central nerve tissues were different, whether the variations concerned with the pathogenesis of ADC need more research.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of the new plan of concurrent capecitabine (CAP) and radiation therapy for hu-man cervical adenocarcinoma in nude mice. Methods The nude mice were injected with CAC-1 cells for the modelization of cervical ade-nocarcinoma. Before treatment,all mice with tumors were randomly divided into control group,CAP group,5-FU group,radiation group,CAP+ radiation group,5-FU+radiation group. According to the tumor size,mice were furtherly divided into large-size and small-size groups in the control group,CAP group,radiation group, CAP+radiation group. The change of tumor size,tumor growth percentage and the delay time of tu-mor growth were evaluated. Results The therapeutic effect of combining 2/3MTD CAP with 6 Gy radiation or fractionation 2 Gy × 8 times radiation was better than that of the control group,chemotherapy group and the radiation group. The difference was significant (P < 0.05). The restraint effect of the combining 2/3MTD CAP with 6 Gy radiotherapy was better than that of the combining 2/3MTD 5-FU with 6 Gy radiotherapy. Combining 2/3MTD CAP with fractionation 2 Gyx8 times radiation therapy was more efficient than Combining 2/3MTD CAP with fractionation 6 Gy radiation therapy. In combining therapy groups,the response of large-size tumors was more significant than that of the small-size tumors (P < 0.05),which had almost no obvious response. Conclusion Concurrent CAP and radiation therapy has obvious restraint effect on CAC-1 cervix adenocarcinoma in nude mice. The CAP and radiation therapy can promote the therapeutic effect to each oth-er. The therapeautic effect of the concurrent CAP and radiation therapy is affected by the radiation dose, radiation method and the tumor size.

Objective To establish the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of serum alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) antibody and evaluate its role in its diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis( AIH ). Methods The reactivity between yeast ADH and human anti-ADH serum antibody was tested by Western blot analysis. ELISA was established using yeast ADH. The method was applied in serums of 67 AIH patients,94 primary biliary cirrhosis(PBC) patients, 199 chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, 132 chronic hepatitis(CHC) patients, 24 alcohol hepatitis disease(ALD) patients, 99 connective tissue disease(CTD) patients and 31 healthy individuals. The positive rate of ADH antibody in the patients and healthy individuals was measured. The χ2 test was used to compare the positive rates. Results The ELISA method for detecting human anti-ADH serum antibody was established successfully and the optimum reaction conditions were defined. Western blot showed that yeast ADH has cross reactivity with human anti-ADH antibody. The positive rate of anti-ADH antibody in the AIH group [59. 7% ,40/67 ] was higher than that in the normal control group(0,χ2 = 31. 271 ,P <0. 05), PBC group (6. 4% ,χ2 =54. 492,P <0. 05), CHB group( 14. 1% ,χ2 =54. 848,P <0. 05) ,CHC group(21.2% ,χ2 = 29.269,P<0.05), ALl) group ( 25. 0% ,χ2 =8.512,P <0.05)and CTD group ( 43. 4% ,χ2 =4.229, P <0. 05). Conclusions Compared with the PBC, CHB, CHC, ALD and CTD group, the anti-ADH antibody positive rate in the serums of AIH was significantly increased. The antibody may be helpful to the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis.
