1.Current status on the intestinal barrier dysfunction in HIV infection
Parenteral & Enteral Nutrition 2017;24(4):244-248
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can effectively suppress thehuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication andsignificantly reduce morbidity and mortality of HIV-infectedpatients,which howevercan't completely remove the virus,and eventually progressinto chronic viral-infection disease.Chronic HIVinfection destroys host immune system,leading to intestinal barrier damage,intestinal mucosal dysfunction,microbial translocation,and further accelerates the disease progress.The reconstruction of intestinalmicroflora balance and improvement of intestinal mucosa function areessential to reestablish the host immune system.This paper will review the current research advanceson intestinal barrier damage of HIV infection and gut-target therapy of AIDS.The aim is to provide valid evidences for further research targeting improvement of treatment strategiesandreduction of morbidity and mortality in HIV infection.

Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(08):-
Objective:To probe the correlation of intra-operative hyaluronic acid(HA) changes with hepatic allografts cold ischemia reperfusion injury in liver transplantation.Methods:The patients with orthotopic liver transplantation were assigned to 3 groups:① group A :liver allografts were stored in University of Wisconsin's solution(0℃) for 5-6 h before implantation;② group B :liver allografts were stored in U W's solution(0℃) for 8-9 h before implantation;③ group C :liver allografts were stored in U W's solution(0℃) for 12 h before implantation.The serum samples were taken up at 5 min,60 min,120 min,180 min after the donor liver was transplanted and reperfused to detect the concentration of HA.Results:After donor liver was transplanted and reperfused,serum HA concentration decreased immediately and gradually.HA decreased rate :group A 4.58 ?g/L?min-1,group B 4.16 ?g/L?min-1,group C 2.26 ?g/L?min-1.Serum HA decrease rate was faster in group A and B than that in group C(P

Objective To summarize experience of selection of donors of living related liver transplantation (LRLT) for Wilson’s Disease.Methods Twenty-nine cases of Wilson’s disease were subjected to LRLT in our center. A retrospective data analysis was carried on 70 potential donors. Results Twenty-three of the 70 potential donors were excluded. The causes were as follows: family and traditional background (n=10, 43.5 % ), copper metabolism abnormality, serum ceruloplasmin 100 ?g (n=6, 26.1 % ), hepatic steatosis (n=4, 17.4 % ) and hepatitis B (n=3, 13 %). The grafts were right liver (n=10) and left liver (n=19). Graft-recipient weight ratio was ( 1.38 ? 0.44 ) %. All donors recovered completely. Perioperative surgical complications occurred in 3 donors and were cured without reoperation, temporary biliary leakages (n=2) as well as postoperative bleeding from the wound of liver (n=1). Conclusions Major impact on living relative donors for Wilson’s Disease is traditional background, copper metabolism abnormalities, hepatitis B and hepatic steatosis. Comprehensive preoperative evaluation of potential donors and harvesting liver surgery innovation ensure the donor safety and graft quality.

Objective To evaluate the effect of cold ischemia on the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) and hepatic regeneration in liver grafts.Methods Partial liver transplantation model in rats was developed. The rats were divided into 3 groups: control group receiving 50 % liver resection,experimental group 1 receiving partial liver transplantation 30 min after cold ischemia and experimental group 2 receiving partial liver transplantation 10 hr after cold ischemia. The expression of the proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA),TNF-? and IL-10 in liver tissues obtained on the postoperative day 1,2 and 4 in rats was detected by using immunohistochemical method. Correlation analysis was performed on the liver proliferation and regeneration,and the expression of TNF-? and IL-10.Results The survival rate in control group,experimental group 1 and experimental group 2 was 100 % , 79 % and 29 % respectively. In the experimental group 2,the expression of PCNA,TNF-? was significantly decreased,while the expression of IL-10 increased as compared with that in experimental group 1 (both P

Protein Kinase C (PKC) is an important messenger in intracellular signal transduction. So far, at least 11 members of PKC isoforms have been isolated and purified. The mutation of the non-synonymous SNP (1425G/A) of the η isoform of protein kinase C (PKC η), a protein kinase Cη gene (PRKCH) may result in the increased PKCη activity, which is considered as a new risk factor for lacunar infarction. In recent years, the studies about the role of PRKCH in cell differentiation and apoptosis and its relation with some signal transduction pathways have made some new advances, especially, PKCη participates in the regulation of some key enzyme activity that mitogen-activated protein kinase, inducible nitric oxide-synthase and matrix metalloproteinase are closely correlated with the process of atherosclerosis. It will provide a new way of thinking for the clinical intervention of cerebral infarction in the future.

Objective To study the relationship between expressions of E-cadherin and syndecan-1 in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and the invasive characters of HCC. Methods The expression of E-cadherin and syndecan-1 were observed in 47 HCC cases using immunohischemistry. Results Most HCC cases showed decreased expression of E-cadherin and syndecan-1 (55%, 60%). Their expressions decreased more significantly in HCC larger than 3*!cm in diameter than in HCC less than 3*!cm (P

Objectives To study the influential factors of the von Clauss method and to promote the method for fibrinogen assay in clinical laboratories in China. MethodsKits of foreign and domestic products were used. Calibration curves for fibrinogen determination were established, and calibration plasma was used for comparison. Effects of pH value, thrombin activity, and temperature on the measurement were studied.Results The reproducibility of the von Clauss method using domestic thrombin and related reagents was excellent, the within day CV being 0.039 1, and the between day CV 0.049 7. The percentage variations of calibration plasma determination, with the foreign fibrinogen assay kits using domestic reagents, were +3.17% , +4.76%, and -6.03%, respectively. Determination of a lyophilized plasma using the two sources reagents showed similar results.Conclusions Thrombin and relevant reagents produced in China could be used as a substitute for kits purchased abroad, which would promote the use of von Clauss method in clinical laboratories of China.
