Objective To explore the distribution and clinical significance of hepatitis B core antigen( HBcAg) in the hepatocytes of chronic hepatitis B virus infected patients. Methods Paraffin sections were made from 41 liver biopsy samples obtained from chronic hepatitis B virus infected patients. The immuno-fluorescence confocal technique was utilized to analyze the expression level and localization of HBcAg in hepatocytes. The data were analyzed by using Kruskal Wallis test and chisquare test. Results HBcAg expression were detected in 36 (87. 8%) patients, among whom 23 cases had moderate abnormal liver function, 10 with mild abnormal liver function and 3 with normal liver function. Among the cases with moderate abnormal liver function, 6 cases showed the simple membrane-type HBcAg expression, 17 cases showed mixed cytosolic-type and membrane-type HBcAg expression without the nuclear-type expression. Twelve cases with mild abnormal liver function only showed simple cytosolic-type HBcAg expression without membrane-type or nuclear-type expression. In the three patients with normal liver function, HBcAg was expressed in cytoplasm and nuclear but not on membrane. The correlation between HBcAg expression pattern and liver function was statistically significant (χ2 =10. 60, P＜0.01). Conclusion HBcAg expression is directly correlated with liver injury in chronic hepatitis B virus infected patients, which indicates that membrane expressed HBcAg is the target antigen during the immuno-attack of liver.

Aninductivelycoupledplasmamassspectrometric(ICP-MS)methodbasedonquadrupole reaction/collision ( DRC) was developed for the determination of K,Na,Ca,Mg,Al,Cu,Zn,Pb,As and Mn in food. Samples were digested with HNO3 and H2 O2 followed by dilution with ultrapure water and then analyzed directly by ICP-MS. The signal sensitivity of high concentration element ( K, Na, Ca, Mg and Al ) was suppressed easily by adjusting the voltage parameters of DRC quadrupole ( Rpa) , and the food samples could be online diluted any multiples ( i. e. from one time to million times) according to the actual need. In order to eliminate mass spectral interferences of 40 Ar35 Cl+, the operational conditions of the DRC, working with CH4 as reaction gas, were optimized for 75 As. The limits of detection for the K, Na, Ca, Mg, Al varied from 0. 013-0. 027 mg/L, and Cu, Pb, Zn, As, Mnvaried from 0. 12-0. 61 μg/L. The accurate and reliable results were obtained for validation of the ICP-MS method with food reference material according to the national standard GBW10023 , GBW10015 , GBW10018 , GBW10017 , GBW10019 and GBW10024 . As the routine method in our laboratory, the satisfactory results indicate that it has great potential for the determination of low and high concentration level elements by one single analysis in various samples.

Objective To evaluate the applied value of CT guiding the liver cancer ablation with cluster electrode radiofrequency hyperthermia. Methods 105 cases with local lung cancer were ablated with cluster electrode radiofrequency hyperthermia by whole body CT-ELSCINT 2400ELECT. Results Success rate of 105 cases CT guiding was 98.3% and the total remission rate was 82.8%. Conclusion It is with CT that the location of percutaneous puncture can be optimally selected, and the point view and depth of the electrode can been detected anytime; also, the internal local focus can be monitored. So, the CT guiding is the optimal method to guide cluster electrode radiofrequency hyperthermia ablation for lung cancer.

Objective To study the difference between images of DR with or without equilibrated reconstruction. Methods 200 samples undergoing DR abdominal imaging from April 2003 are chosen orderly. Results All details of different tissue can be displayed in an image by adopting Equilibrated Reconstruction, while standard DR images should adjust the width and position of the window to get the same effect. Conclusion Equilibrated Reconstruction technology could improve image quality of different tissues without loss of details of other parts, and make DR more consummate and operation more convenient. It raise the ratio of displaying lesions.

Objective To establish a HPLC method for determination of Peoniflorin in Zhongzi Sanda Pill.Method Kromasil-C18 column(5 ?m,4.6 mm?250 mm) was used.Mobile phase was methanol-water(30:70).The detective wavelength was at 230 nm.The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min.Results There was a good linear relationship between the injection amount 0.11～2.14 ?g and a good peak form for Peoniflorin in Zhongzi Sanda Pill.The average recovery rate was 98.2%(RSD=1.72%,n =6).Conclusion This method is convenient,effective and accurate for the quality control of Peoniflorin in Zhongzi Sanda Pill.

Objective To observe the effects of Sancaoanqian decoction on expression of cytokine IL-1?, IL-6 and TNF RⅡ in experimental autoimmune prostatitis rats, and explore the target protein of cytokine of Chinese herbal compound in treating chronic nonbacterial prostatitis. Methods Seventy-two male Wistar rats were divided randomly into six groups and 12 rats in each group. All groups were made experimental autoimmune prostatitis rat model by injecting SC purified prostate protein with FCA except normal group. The normal and model group were given saline, western medicine group was given indomethacin, large, medium and small doses decoction groups were treated with large, medium and small doses of Sancaoanqian decoction. All rats were sacrificed after 30 days. The mRNA and protein expression of cytokines were tested by methods of immunohistochemistry and fluorescent quantitation RT-PCR. Results Sancaoanqian decoction could reduce the mRNA and protein expression of IL-1?, IL-6 in experimental autoimmune prostatitis rats. There were no significant difference between large and medium doses decoction group, but had a better activity than small dose. The expression of TNF RⅡ were reduced in all doses groups and no difference among three doses of Sancaoanqian decoction. Conclusion Sancaoanqian decoction can regulate the immune function in chronic prostatitis rat model. Down-regulation of cytokines maybe one of important mechanisms in treating chronic prostatitis.
