On the basis of the research on interaction between plasmodium and mosquito vector,the mechanism of innate immune defense responses in anopheline mosquitoes against plasmodium infection has been studied.The innate immune defense may be applied to confine and kill malaria parasites under migration and development,and contribute to an effective control strategy on malaria vectors.

Objective To summarize and analyze clinical characteristics of glycogen storage disease (GSD)typeⅠcomplicated with hepatocellular carcinoma to improve clinical recognition to it.Methods First case of GSD type Ia complicated with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in China was reported and another 14 cases with detailed clinical data reported in literatures were reviewed in this paper.Results The case was man at age of 19 with chief complaint of hepatic mass founded casually.For all the 15 cases(other 14 from literature reports),mean age at diagnosis of HCC was 32.3 years and average time interval from diagnosis of GSD to diagnosis of HCC Was 23.1 years,as compared to 23.3 years and 14.6 years,respectively in three cases with both hepatitis B virus(HBV)and hepatitis C virus(HCV)seropositive.Serum level of alpha fetoprotein(AFP)was elevated in six patients.Tumor could be located at all lobes of the liver and mainly in the right lobe(eight of 15 cases),with varied size and solitary or multiple tumor.Conclusions Symptoms in GSD typeⅠcomplicated with HCC Was latent at onset.and AFP measurement was questionable in its diagnosis.It is important that physicians should keep more alert to risk of HCC in patients with GSD for its early diagnosis.

Objective To analyze the drug-resistance and distribution of nonferments bacteria infection in our hospital and provide the diagnosis and treatment evidence to doctor.Methods 241 nonferments bacteria strains had been separated from patients of Xinqiao Hospital from July 2006 to Jan 2008. Bacteria identify and drug-resistance test were performed by VITEK-Ⅱanalysis system. The drug-resistance result was determined by MIC with the standard of NCCLS.Results The separate rate in patients of neurosurgery, respiration, orthopaedics were 24.94、23.27 and 10.79 respectively. The main source of specimen are sputum. The drug resistance rate were Imipenem (16.9), Amikacin(29.3), Cefepime (33.9) and Cefazidime(39.1) in 241 nonferments bacteria strains. Conclusion The infection of nonferments bacteria must be recognized by doctors, and it would prompt us to use antibiotic properly.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the immune defence reaction against Plasmodium infection and the prophenoloxidase (PPO) of the midgut by comparative analysis of the distributions and the changes of PPO in the midgut of Anopheles stephensi and Anopheles dirus before and after infection with Plasmodium yoelii . Methods Midguts were dissected out from both Anopheles stephensi and Anopheles dirus at 3, 5, 7, 11 and 15 d before and after infection with Plasmodium yoelii . Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were performed respectively on the collected midguts using Manduca Sexta PPO IgG polyantibody. Results PPO in the midguts from both Anopheles stephensi and Anopheles dirus was mainly located in the circulation conduit of midgut before infection with Plasmodium yoelii , but aggregated and distributed at the interspace of midguts as pieced or/and stripped forms after infection. Furthermore, PPO in the midgut of Anopheles dirus was more concentrated than that of Anopheles stephensi . Western blotting revealed that the PPO band with about molecular weight of 67?10 3 was detected in the midguts of both Anopheles stephensi and Anopheles dirus before and after Plasmodium yoelii infection. There was significant difference before and after infection, and the PPO band was obviously enhanced after infection. PPO bands in the midgut of Anopheles dirus were more prominent than those of Anopheles stephensi . Conclusion PPO in the midgut of Anopheles mosquitoes may come from the hemolymph by the circulation conduit before Plasmodium yoelii infection. However, the different distributions and changes of PPO in the midguts resulted from the Anopheles mosquitoes infected with Plasmodia may be closely correlated with Plasmodia infection, which may be of important physiological significance and may be involved in the immune defensive reaction against Plasmodium .

Objective To clone the partial cDNA sequence of prophenoloxidase (PPO) gene of Anopheles dirus . Methods Degenerative primers were designed according to the conserved sequence blocks within the prophenoloxidase of insects. RNA sequence of the larva of Anopheles dirus was amplified by RT PCR to get the prophenoloxidase cDNA which was then cloned into T vector and sequenced. The partial cDNA sequence of prophenoloxidase gene was analysed and compared with other prophenoloxidase gene of insects. Results The partial cDNA sequence of AdPPO4 was 597 bp, and its deduced amino acid sequence was 199aa. The cDNA sequence homology and amino acid sequence homology was 84% and 90%, respectively, as compared with the PPO4 gene of Anopheles gambiae . Conclusion The AdPPO4, with high sequence homology with the PPO4 gene of Anopheles gambiae , is successfully cloned from the larva of Anopheles dirus .
