1.Repertoire Antibody Library Constructed from Human Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes with in vitro Immunization with Colorectal Carcinoma-Associated Antigen
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 1995;0(02):-
A Strategy was established for construction of repertoire antibody library with affinity chromatography purifying antigen, antigen immunizing human lymphocytes, RT-PCR and phage display technology. The colorectal carcinoma-associated antigen CA-Hb3 was purified with affinity column and analysed with SDS-PAGE and Western-blot, then applied for immunizing peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) in vitro. The PBL were isolated from ten patients with colorectal carcinoma and cultured with interleukin 2 and pokeweed mitogen, lymphoblast-like cells occurred and colonies formed after immunization. Three VH-CHl(?) and five VL-CL(?,?) genes were amplified from their total RNA and mRNA with RT-PCR. Three VH (?) and 8 VL (?,?) genes were reamplified and randomly combined to construct 24 single-chain variable fragments (ScFv) genes through (Gly_(4)Ser)_(3) linker. ScFv genes digested with Sfi I were cloned into fUSE 5 vector and transformed into MC1061 with electroporation. Repertoire antibody library was obtained with 10~(6) tetracycline-resistant colonies, in which the percentage of ScFv inserts was 85 % . This strategy might be used for humanizing mouse-original monoclonal antibody.

Objective To measure the serum levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) in the newborns with respiratory distress and investigate its clinical significance. Methods Newborns with respiratory distress hospitalized into the Newborn Intensive Care Unit were included. The serum levels of ET-1 and TGF-β were all detected with ELISA in the first six hours,3,7,14 and 28 days after birth. Results The highest levels of ln ( 1 + ET-1 ) and ln ( 1 + TGF-β) were obtained from newborns with diagnosis as meconium aspiration syndrome ( 1.95 ± 1.02) ng/L and ( 1.51 ±0.99) ng/L,respectively) in the samples obtained in the first six hours after birth, and these were statistically different from those of the control group ( P < 0. 05 ). Following were obtained for newborns with respiratory distress syndrome ( ( 1.52 ± 0.74 ) ng/L and ( 1.13 ± 0. 48 ) ng/L, t = 2.28,2. 13,respectively). After oxygen treatment, ET-1 levels obtained in the first six hours of life decreased gradually in the following days (P <0.05 ). Conclusions The measurements of ET-1 and TGF-β levels will help in differentiating diagnosis of the respiratory distress of newborns. The ET-1 levels will help to assess the therapy effectiveness and prognosis.

Objective To look for a standard way to cure uric acid calculi in transplanted kidney with medicine.Methods Under the guide of the standard and widespread metabolic evaluation, citrate and allopurinol were used to treat 4 patients with uric acid calculi after kidney transplantation. These two kinds of medicines were used in the long term together with other conservative treatment to prevent the recurrence of calculi.Results In these 4 cases, all clinical syndromes disappeared and all the calculi dissolved. After follow-up for 1~2 years, no recurrence of calculi was found. Conclusion Citrate should be used to dissolve uric acid calculi in transplanted kidney and to prevent the recurrence of calculi under the guide of the standard metabolic evaluation.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of anterolateral decompression and internal fixation on the treatment of old thoracolumbar vertebrae fracture with associated incomplete paraplegia. Method the clinical findings of 26 cases with old thoracolumber vertebrae fracture with associated incomplete paraplegia treated by anterolateral decompression and internal fixing were reviewed retrospectively. Results All cases were followed up for 6 months through 2.5 years. The angle of kyphosis was 23?preoperatively and 6?postoperatively. According to Frankel's grading, there were two cases at grade A, three at grade B, five at grade C, seven at grade D, nine at grade E before operation and one at grade A, three at grade B, four at grade C, six at grade D and 12 at grade E after operation. Conclusion Anterolateral decompression and internal fixation is the treatment of choice for the old thoracolumber vertebrae fracture associated with incomplete paraplegia, especially for spinal deficit generated by displacement of the middle column.

Hepatic nodules in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (B-CS) are identified in clinical work and the differentiating diagnosis is very important for making the treatment strategy.Most B-CS patients with hepatic nodules have nonspecific clinical manifestations.Ultrasonography,computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are often used for differentiating diagnosis.According to the results of retrospective study on clinical and imaging data of 51 B-CS patients with hepatic nodules,we draw a conclusion that the differentiating diagnosis of hepatic nodules in patients with B-CS depends on imaging characteristics.Different treatment strategies are adopted according to the comprehensive analysis of these imaging data and satisfactory results can be achieved.
