Objective To observe the expression of FcRIIa and FcRIIb on the surface of several immune cells.Methods The expression of FcRIIa and FcRIIb on the surface of several immune cells were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot before and after IVIG incubation. The difference of Fc?RIIb expression on U937 and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) after IVIG induction. was also analyze by FACS.Results Under normal conditions Fc?RIIa was mainly detected in macrophages/monocytes and B lymphocyte cells, while Fc?RIIb could not be detected. After IVIG administration, the expression of FcRIIb on the surface of U937 cells was quickly up-regulated (RT-PCR). FACS analysis revealed that the Fc?RIIb expression on U937 and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) after IVIG induction was also increased. Conclusion The effect of immunoregulation of IVIG was partly achieved by up-regulation of the expression of FcRIIb on the surface of some immune cells.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and management of retained common bile duct stones.Method The clinical data of 14 patients with retained common bile duct stones between 1994 and 2000 was statistically analyzed in comparison with 191 patients of the negative postoperative T tube cholangiography. Results Common bile duct stones were present in 20% of patients undergoing cholecystectomy. In 7% of patients, stones were left in the bile ducts after common bile duct exploration. Statistically significant difference was observed in the age of the patient population, the percentage of associated acute cholangitis, the number of the stones present in common bile duct and the frequercy of the intraoperative choledochoscopy when compared retained bile duct stones with negative postoperative T tube cholangiography. Conclusions Retained common bile duct stones is related to age of the patient, the association of acute cholangitis, the number of the common bile duct stones and the operative choledochoscopy. Postoperative flexible choledochoscopy or endoscopic papillotomy is an effective method for managing patients with retained common bile duct stones.
