Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2011;44(5):358-359
Objective To explore the expressions of livin and Smac in condyloma acuminatum (CA) tissue and their roles. Methods The expressions of Livin and Smac were analyzed by immunocytochemical staining with streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) in tissue specimens from the lesions of 58 patients with CA and foreskin of 20 normal human controls. Results The detection rates of Livin and Smac were 81.03% (47/58) and 77.59% (45/58) in CA lesions, respectively, compared to 25.00% (5/20) and 35.00% (7/20) in the controls, respectively. The expressions of Livin and Smac varied from positive (++) to strongly positive (+++) in CA lesions, and from negative (-) to positive (++) in the controls (both P< 0.05). A positive correlation was found between the expression of Livin and Smac in CA lesions (r = 0.373, P < 0.01). Conclusion There is an over- expression of Livin and Smac in CA tissue, which may be involved in the occurrence and development of CA.

Since the first reported case of swine influenza A in Mexico,a total of 15 510 cases have been confirmed in 53 countries by May 29,2009.On April 29,2009,the World Health Organization(WHO)raised its pandemic alert from grade 4 to grade 5.The virus is described as a new subtype of A/H1N1 and is not detected in pigs or humans previously.The virus is sensitive to oseltamivir and zanamivir,but resistant to amantadine and rimantadine.The genetics of the virus are so novel that humans are unlikely to have much immunity to it.The virus can transmit from human to human;therefore it is necessary to enforce quarantine measure for close contactors because the virus transmits during latency.Precaution methods like covering noses and mouths with a tissue when coughing or sneezing can reduce the transmission opportunity.Hands should be washed frequently with soap,especially after coughing or sneezing.Public places with ventilation conditions,personal health behavior and health condition are critical for the prevention and control of this epidemic.

Several epidemic influenza viruses leading to worldwide periodical pandemics all result from the genetic reassortment of different influenza viruses.The novel 2009 A/H1N1 virus is a reassortment virus evolved from swine influenza virus A/H1N1,avian influenza virus H5N1,and human influenza virus A/H1N1.The 8 fragmente genes of the novel A/H1N1 virus had their own evolutionary characteristics.All the pandemic viruses in humans originate from avian influenza viruses and are transferred into humans after reassortment processes in pigs.Pigs as middle host and a mixing vessel of influenza A virus play an important role in the evolution of the 2009 novel A/H1N1 virus.More attention should be paid on the role of swine in the prevention and control of novel H1N1 virus epidemics in future.

Objective To explore the clonality of the T cells and the role of cellular immunological pathogenesis in chronic asymptomatic HBV carriers (AsC) by TCR CDR3 size spectratyping and determining sequence. Methods The TCR CDR3 region genes of 24 BV families were amplified by utilizing inverse polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technology, and the CDR3 size lengths of T cell receptor (TCR) ?-chain were analyzed with Genescan technology for 4 healthy individuals and 9 AsCs. The clonality of T cells presumed by spectratyping was further confirmed by CDR3 sequencing. Results The CDR3 repertoire of 4 healthy individuals showed Gaussian distribution. The clonal expansions of T cell were observed in 8 out of 9 AsCs. The expanded T cells have different CDR3 sequences. Conclusion There is significantly clonal expansion in the compartment of the peripheral blood T lymphocyte in AsCs. The expanded T cells do not have homogenicity.

To increase detection sensitivity and specificity on hepatitis C virus (HCV) is vital for prevention and controlling of the disease. To establish a more reliable detection method for HCV diagnosis, the full gene fragment of ns3 (non-structural protein of HCV) from recombinant plasmid of J6/JFH1 2a was amplified and then connected into the pET-28a prokaryotic expression vector, and the latter was subsequently transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) to have the target protein expression. As a result, a protein with a molecular weight of 72 kDa was obtained and visualized in 10% SDS-PAGE. The purified NS3 protein was used as immunogen to inoculate BALB/c mice and the sera was collected after the fourth immunization. The antibody titer of serum is determined to be about 1:256000 with ELISA. Western blotting and indirect immunofluorescence analysis showed that the mouse polyclonal antibody could react specifically with the native NS3 protein in Huh 7.5.1 cells infected with HCV. These findings may provide basis for further preparation of monoclonal antibodies against NS3 and the development of related detection kit.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of surgical approaches in patients of gastric cancer with portal hypertension.Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with portal hypertension undergoing curative surgery for gastric cancer or simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension were retrospectively analyzed.Results The radical gastrectomy alone had no tremendous impact on postoperative liver function.But simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension affected patients' liver function dramatically (P =0.018).For those who underwent surgery for portal hypertension simultaneously,the incidence of complications in Child B patients was much higher than that in Child A patients (P =0.018).However,the incidence of complications did not differ between Child A and B patients who underwent radical gastrectomy alone.In addition,patients undergoing simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension had more severe complications than those who underwent radical gastrectomy only (P =0.042).Age > 50 (P =0.012),tumor stage (P =0.015),and simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension (P =0.007) were the independent risk factors for postoperative liver dysfunction.The survival time of patients undergoing simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension was significantly shorter than that of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy only (in Child A patients,P =0.009,in Child B patients,P =0.000).Conclusions Individualized surgical approaches for the treatment of gastric cancer with portal hypertension should be decided by preoperative liver function.Simultaneous management of portal hypertension was not recommended.
