Objective To analyze the mutation of PreS-S region in occult hepatitis B virus(OHBV) in HBV infected persons with positive HBsAb and investigate the biological mechanisms of the special infectious model.Methods A total of 38 HB-sAb positive OBI serum samples were amplified by Nested PCR and sequenced,HBV genotype and serotype were determined.The amino acid sequences of OHBV were compared to the corresponding sequence of wild-type strains of similar genotype obtained from the GenBank database.Results PreS-S segment of 11 samples were obtained and 8 samples were sequenced successfully.Among which,5 were genotype C and 3 were genotype B.Genotype B were all serotype adw,while genotype C were 1 adw and 4 adr.The mutation rates of PreS-S region,the immunoreactive area and the major hydrophilic region (MHR) were higher in OHBV than the wild-type strains (2.6% vs 0.8%,x2 =40.23,3.2% vs 0.3%,x2 =52.13,3.6% vs 0.6%,x2 =13.25,all P<0.01) and the substitutions of I126T,Q129R,M133T,F134I,D144E,G145K in α determinant were found in OBI samples.The mutation rate of amino acids in PreS-S region was higher in genotype C than genotype B (3.5% vs 1.2%,x2--15.98,P<0.01),meanwhile,the mutation rates in MHR,α determinant and immunoreactive region were higher in genotype C too,but no statistical significance was attained (4.7% vs 1.7 %,x2 =2.96,3.6 % vs 2.9%,x2 =0.25,4.1% vs 2.3%,x2 =3.59,all P >0.05).Conclusion Mutations in PreS-S region,especially in immunoepitope,might change the virus'immunogenicity leading to escape from immune response and cause OBI with HBsAb positive.

In this paper we present an easily available method of intracellular dialysis via a microcatheter inserted into glass pipette during patch clamp experiment. An oblique hole through the glass pipette holder (above the lateral hole for cell-seal suction) is drilled, through which a microcatheter (O.D.=0.1 mm) made from the universal pipetter tip by hand-drawing passes and sticks out of the holder mouth in parallel with the Ag-AgCl electrode. With a syringe connected to the microcatheter, substitution of intracellular solution and intracellular dialysis of drugs can be achieved easily. Compared with repatch technique and intracellular solution substitution techniques used abroad, this method operates more easily and can produce more reliable results.

AIMTo investigate the role of endothelin-1 in the pathogenesis of neurogenetic pulmonary edema.
METHODSThe levels of endothelin-1 in plasma and lung were measured in rats which suffered from diffuse brain injury on Marmarous' model. The changes of endothelin-1 in the lungs were also detected using an immunohistochemical method.
RESULTSAfter heavy diffuse brain injury in rats, the levels of endothelin-1 in plasma and lung began increasing at 1 hour, and peaked at 6 hour. Though a little declining at 24 hour, it maintained a higher level within 48 hours (P < 0.05). Pulmonary pathology showed that after brain injury there were congestion, swelling in pulmonary microvessels with broadened pulmonary interstitial tissue, and leucocyte infiltration was dominated by neutrophils and monocytes from 1 hour on, which peaked at 6 hour. More serious congestion, swelling and protein effusion in pulmonary alveoli were observed at both 24 h and 48 h. Immunohistochemically, endothelin-1 had more significant expression and higher levels of OD in the experimental groups than that in the control's, the most significance of which was at 6 hour.
CONCLUSIONThe inflammatory injury mechanism caused by endothelin-1 may play an important role in neurogenic pulmonary edema.

AIMTo study preventive and therapeutic effect of zinc sulfate on lung injury during superior mesenteric artery occlusion (SMAO) shock and their mechanism of action.
METHODSModel of rabbit SMAO shock was made. The effect of zinc sulfate on the malondialdehyde (MDA) in erythrocyte membrane and plasma, oxidase (XOD) in plasma, superoxide dismutase (SOD) in erythrocyte and MDA, SOD and pulmonary surfactant (PS) in lung tissues homogenate were observed.
RESULTSThe administration of zinc sulfate decreased MDA and XOD, prevented the reduction of SOD and PS, and alleviated lung injury.
CONCLUSIONIt is suggested that lung is injured during SMAO shock and zinc sulfate possesses preventive and therapeutic effect, through stabilized membrane.

AIMTo explore the effects of shenmai (Chinese transitional medicine) injection on lipid peroxidation in the lung following with ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of limb.
METHODSThe models of I/R injury of limb were constructed in rabbits. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in into and out-flowing pulmonary blood (IPB, OPB) and lung tissue were measured, as well as the effects of shenmai injection were observed.
RESULTSCompared with sham group, the activity of SOD in IPB, OPB and lung tissue were decreased, and the content of MDA was increased after 4 h ischemia followed by 4 h reperfusion. SOD increased and MDA decreased significantly by icy shenmai injection 30 min before reperfusion. The correlation analysis indicated that MDA was negatively correlated with SOD .
CONCLUSIONOxygen free radicals metabolic confusion of lung occurred in the course of I/R, shenmai injection can alleviate lipid peroxidation, get rid of free radicals and inhibit the damage of lung.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of sympathetic neurotransmitters and adrenergic receptors on liver fibrosis in murine schistosomiasis.
METHODSMice were infestated with schistosoma by means of pasting cercariae on their abdomens. Thirty mice were randomly divided into a control group and a model group. Hematoxylin eosin and Van Gieson staining were used to view the histopathology of their livers. Immunofluorescence histochemistry and laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy were used to measure the a1A and beta2 adrenergic receptors in livers of the two groups of mice. High performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD) was used to determine the concentration of norepinephrine (NE) and dopamine (DA) in the plasma of the mice.
RESULTSImmunofluorescence histochemistry showed that a1A and beta2 receptors were present in hepatocytes and hepatic sinusoids of the livers of the mice of the two groups, but there were many more in the livers of the schistosoma infected mice (t=-2.888; t=-6.648) (P<0.05). The results of HPLC-ECD showed that the levels of NE and DA in the model group were higher than those of the control group (t=-3.372; t=-4.428) (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSympathetic neurotransmitters and adrenergic receptors may participate in liver fibrogenesis in mice infected with schistosoma.
