ObjectiveTo study the transcript atlas of cell immunity-associated genes in 8 liver cell types including hepatocytes, bile duct epithelial cells, oval cells, hepatic stellate cells, sinus endothelial cells, Kupffer cells, pit cells and dendritic cells from the rat regenerating liver. Methods The 8 liver cell types were isolated respectively by Percoll density gradient centrifugation combined with immune magnetic beads separation method. Their expression changes in the regenerating livers were detected by Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array, the expression patterns and the predicted physiological activities of cell immunity-associated genes were analyzed by Cluster program, and the methods of bioinformation and systematic biology. Results A total of 40 cell immunity-associated genes yielded the meaningful expression changes in liver regeneration, the corresponding gene numbers in 8 liver cell types were 19, 19, 9, 19, 19, 21, 22 and 21, respectively. It suggested that the formation of antigen peptide-MHC complexes, the NF-κB kinase activity and the production of cytokines like IL-2 were enhanced at the priming and progressing phases of liver regeneration. The biological activities, such as NF-κB-promoting cell differentiation and caspase-induced T cell apoptosis, were elevated at termination phase.Conclusion The rat liver regeneration is associated with cell immunity.

Objective To investigate the course of the mandibular branch of the facial nerve and to discuss its clinical significant in the rhytidectomy. Methods The distribution of the mandibular branch was observed in 30 halves of the fifteen candaveric specimens (ten antiseptic cadaveric specimens and five fresh cadaveric specimens). Results The mandibular branch could be divided into the isolated branch type and shared branch type, after it exited from the parotid gland. 63.33 % mandibular branch was found (2.1?0.7) cm superior to the palpable edge of the mandibular bone; 23.33 % mandibular branch was along the edge of the bone; and 13.33 % was found (1.8?0.5)cm inferior to the palpable edge of the bone. Conclusion The distribution of the mandibular branch locates in the area that is a digit superior and inferior to the lower border of the mandibular bone, which arises from the angle of the mandibular bone. The dissection beneath the SMAS-platysma should be with caution of the injury of the ramification of mandibular branch in the anterior border of the masseter muscle.[

Infectious endophthalmitis refers to the acute suppurative inflammation of the uveal and retinal, with acute onset, severe symptoms, and poor prognosis.Early diagnosis and effective treatment is particularly important.Based on the way of intraocular infection, endophthalmitis can be divided into endogenous endophthalmitis and exogenous endophthalmitis.In the East Asian, liver abscess is the main source of endogenous endophthalmitis, and Klebsiella pneumoniae is the main pathogen.Liver abscess endophthalmitis is a serious cause of blindness caused by intraocular infection.A liver infection disseminated through hematogenous and the primary focus was hidden, which makes the disease was easy to be confused with immune related uveitis, causing high misdiagnosis rate, delaying the best time for diagnosis and treatment.In this article we reviewed the etiology, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment and prognosis of endogenous endophthalmitis caused by liver abscess.Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion to the endogenous endophthalmitis caused by liver abscess.

To increase the biotransfomation efficiency from the orotic acid to the uridine 5'-monophosphate(UMP),URA5 gene encoding orotate phosphoribosytransferase was amplified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4742 by PCR,then it was inserted into the expression vector pYX212(contained orotidine monophosphate decarboxylase gene URA3)and the pYX212-URA5 was transformed into Saccharomyces cerevisiae BJX12 by electroporation.The recombinant strain was elementarily used to convert orotic acid to UMP.The results showed that pYX212-URA5/BJX12 could accumulate 7mmol/L UMP from 32mmol/L orotic acid in 26h,significantly higher than both control groups pYX212/BJX12(2.7mmol/L) and BJX12(2.4 mmol/L).

Objective:The different subtypes of voltagE-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are known to correlate with the migration of many malignant cancers. This study was to investigate the significance of functional expression of SCN5A/Nav1.5 in human ovarian cancer and its effects on migration capability of ovarian cancer cells in vitro. Methods: Sodium indicator SBFI and immunofluorescence method were used to detect the distribution of intracellular Na+. Real-time PCR, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of SCN5A/Nav1.5. The effect of specific voltagE-gated sodium channels inhibitor tetrodotoxin (TTX) on cell viability was measured by CCK-8 kit. The migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV-3 were tested by Transwell chamber assay. Results:SCN5A/Nav1.5 were over-expressed in ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV-3 and ovarian cancer specimens at mRNA and protein levels. TTX 30 μmol/L inhibited the intracellular Na+ concentration by (41.51±0.41)%. TTX also suppressed the invasion and migration capacities of SKOV-3 cells by (33.80±1.6)% and (43.60±2.9)%, respectively. The difference was significant (P<0.05). Conclusion:SCN5A/Nav1.5 is involved in the metastasis progression of ovarian cancer in vitro and plays an important role in the initiation and progression of ovarian cancer. It may become a target for ovarian cancer therapy.

Objective To investigate the expression of interleukin 18 (IL-18) in liver tissues of patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and its clinical significance.Methods Totally 172 CHB patients admitted in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2012 to December 2012 were enrolled.The tissue specimens were obtained by liver biopsy from all patients,and 22 normal liver specimens were also collected as controls.Liver function,serum markers of HBV and HBV DNA load were measured and liver inflammation grades and fibrosis stages were assessed.Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of IL-18 in liver tissues.Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlations between IL-18 expression and the above indicators.Results IL-18 was mainly expressed in cytoplasm of liver cells.It was positive or strong positive in liver cells of healthy people,but weakly positive in liver cells of CHB patients.The difference of IL-18 expression between CHB patients and healthy people was of statistical significance (x2 =42.124,P ＜ 0.05).In CHB patients,the expression of IL-18 was gradually enhanced with the increasing of ALT,inflammation grades and fibrosis stages (r =0.182,0.173 and 0.068,P ＜0.05),but it was not correlated with HBV DNA load and HBeAg (r =-0.05 and 0.041,P ＞0.05).Conclusion In CHB patients,the expression of IL-18 may be involved in liver injury and fibrosis formation.

To better understand the molecular characterization ,pathogenesis ,origin ,and evolutionary relationship of the first human-infecting H6N1 influenza virus ,the dataset was downloaded from the Flu and GISAID databases ,and the phy-logenetic trees were reconstructed by maximum likelihood (ML) ,maximum parsimony (MP) and Bayesian inference (BI) . Furthermore ,the evolution rate ,the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) ,variable sites ,glycosylation sites ,cleavage sites and other some molecular features were also analyzed by bioinformatic means .The results indicated that the HA gene fell into an individual clade with other three H6N1 virus strains isolated from chicken .TMRCA was in 2002 ,and the cluster had a higher evolution rate .The molecular features revealed the HA protein had 5 N-glycosylation sites ,2 O-glycosylation sites and 2 unique variable sites .The cleavage sites had only one basic amino acid and suggested that the human-infecting H6N1 virus strain was low pathogenic .However ,because of the higher substitution rate and viral reassortment ,people should pay more attention .
