OBJECTIVETo study the correlation between arachidonic acid (AA) and acute red blood cells damage in rats, and to build a model with hidden blood loss in vivo, and to explore the pathological mechenism of hidden blood loss.

METHODSA total of 50 male adult Sprague-Dawley rats weighing (200 ± 20) g were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10): control group and four experimental groups. The rats in the experimental groups were given 0.5 ml different concentrations of AA dilu- ents, 5, 10, 20, 40 mmol/L respectively. The blood samples were collected from orbital venous at the beginning and 24, 48, 72 hours after administration. Then the changes of hemoglobin (Hb) ,red blood cell count (RBC), glutathione peroxidase (GSH- PX) activity, total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity and hydrogen peroxide (H202) in the blood samples were tested.

RESULTSSignificant hidden blood loss occurred when the concentration was 10 mmol/L in the experimental group, with the RBC and Hb sharply reduced in blood samples. The Hb and RBC were reduced in all the experimental groups and control group at 24 hours after administration, while in the experimental groups they changed more obviously. The GSH-PX activity, T-SOD activity and H₂O₂were also significantly reduced in all groups, and the changes showed significant differences. The Hb and RBC were relatively stable in the control group and the experimental groups at 48 hours after administration; while GSH-PX activity, T-SOD activity and H₂O₂were all significantly decreased, and the changes in the experimental groups were more notable.

CONCLUSIONElevated levels of AA in the blood causes oxidative stress in the red blood cells, leading to the damage of red blood cells and hemoglobin, which is responsible for hidden blood loss.

Abstract: Nitrobenzene compounds (NBCs) are widely used in the world. It has 40 isomers such as nitrobenzene, dinitrobenzene and nitrotoluene, that are highly toxic and difficult to degrade and can cause harm to human health in different degrees. At pres⁃ ent, there is no unified standard method and occupational exposure limit for the detection of NBCs in the air. In terms of sampling medium, solid adsorption tube is mostly used for trapping vapor state NBCs, and filter membrane and solid adsorption tube are mostly used in series for sampling coexist NBCs in vapor state and aerosol state. In the detection methods, gas chromatography and liquid chromatography are common, and ultraviolet spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy, ion migration spectrometry and some other rapid response methods and technologies are also used in the detection of NBCs. In the detection of NBCs by gas chro⁃ matography, capillary column separation is commonly used, and the main detectors are flame ionization detector, electron capture detector and mass spectrometry detector. It is of practical significance to establish a method with high sensitivity, strong practica⁃ bility, convenient operation, and can simultaneously collect and detect a variety of NBCs in different states.

Objective To investigate the effect of chronic intermittent hypoxia(CIH)on the cardiovascular system in anesthetized rats. Methods A totally of 72 male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=24),namely the ormoxia control group(control group), the normoxia anesthesia group(model group)and the chronic intermittent hypoxia group(CIH group).Rats of the control group breathe nor-mally.The model group was given intraperitoneal injection of 10%hydration with 0.3 mL/kg,and the CIH group was given chronic intermit-tent hypoxic stimulation with 8 h/d in addtion to the model group.The difference of ultrasonic echocardiography data,blood pressure,endothe-lin type-1,and endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)in rats of the three groups were compared.After 28 days,these rats were sacrificed to observe the changes of myocardial cell structure.Results In the control group,the myocardial morphology was normal,the cells arranged e-venly,and there was no swelling and inflammation.In the model group,the myocardial cells were evenly arranged without hypertrophy and in-flammatory changes.In the CIH group,the myocardial cells in the hypoxic group were not evenly arranged,and hypertrophy,swelling,deform-ation,hyperchromia,and obvious inflammatory changes of the myocardial tissue were observed.In the control group,myocardial cell nucleus and cytoplasm were uniformly arranged,and there was no obvious changes in the model group.On the contrary,myocardial cell morphology changed obviously in the CIH group,with the cell morphology and size of the inhomogeneity increased, and the color of the apoptosis cells changes from light to dark.The tail artery systolic pressure of rats in CIH group was significantly higher than that of the control group and the model group,and the LVEF of CIH group was significantly lower than that of the other two groups(P<0.05).Ultrasound detection value sug-gests that the LVID and left ventricular of rats in the CIH group were slightly larger,and the diastolic function was normal.The LVDs of the model group and the CIH group were both higher than that of the control group with statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The RBC, HCT,dp/dtmax,and -dp/dtmax in the CIH group were significantly higher than those of the control group and the model group(P<0.05). Serum levels of endothelin-1 in CIH group were significantly higher than that of control group and model group,while the summation of serum NO2-/NO3-and eNOS in CIH group were significantly lower than those of the control group and the model group(P<0.05).Conclusion Chronic intermittent hypoxia can cause cardiac dysfunction in anesthetized rats,which may lead to the imbalance of serum endothelin-1 and NO levels,leading to endothelial dysfunction and myocardial injury.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of interferon -alpha1b (IFN-alpha1b) on hepatic intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression and serum HBV DNA in patients with chronic hepatitis B.

METHODSBefore and 6 months after IFN-alpha1b treatment, liver biopsy was performed in patients with chronic hepatitis B to detect the expression of ICAM-1 in the liver tissues using immunohistochemistry. Serum HBV load was detected with real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction.

RESULTCAM-1 expression in the liver tissue was significantly down-regulated after IFN treatment in patients with severe and moderate chronic hepatitis B (P<0.05). No significant variation was noted in the expression of ICAM-1 in the livers of patients with mild chronic hepatitis B after the treatment (P>0.05). In the patients weakly positive for ICAM-1 expression (+), serum HBV DNA varied scarcely after the treatment (P>0.05), while in the patients with strong ICAM-1 positivity (++, +++, or ++++), significant variation of serum HBV DNA occurred after the treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe therapeutic effect of IFN-alpha1b is associated with the expression of ICAM-1 in the hepatocytes, and its expression might enhance the effects of IFN on HBV DNA in patients with chronic hepatitis B.

OBJECTIVETo isolate single chain antibody fragments (scFv) against cell surface molecules by pathfinder selection from an anti-KG1a cell scFv phage library.

METHODSThe anti-KG1a scFv library was enriched by KGla cell panning for three rounds, or unenriched, then processed for pathfinder selection respectively using anti-CD34 monoclonal antibody as pathfinder molecule. ScFv phage clones were randomly picked and identified by binding KG1a cells using immunofluorescein and flow cytometry. The KG1a+ clones were further identified by KG1a, HL60, U937, and CEM cell lines and ELISA. Their antigenic molecules on cell surface were digested by chymopapain and analyzed by flow cytometry. DNAs from ten positive clones were sequenced. The scFv clones with different primary structure were used to analyze the molecular weight of their antigens by Western blot.

RESULTSOne hundred and two KG1a+ scFv phage clones were isolated from 144 enriched and 96 unenriched scFv phage library respectively, among which 47 bound KG1a, HL60, U937, and CEM cells, 55 bound KG1a cells exclusively. None of 28 KG1a+, HL60-, U937-, and CEM- scFv clones bound to the CD34 antigen, as confirmed by ELISA, although most of their antigens were sensitive to chymopapain digestion. DNA sequences from ten positive clones showed that they were from four different clones. They bound antigens with different molecular weight.

CONCLUSIONSOne hundred and two scFv phage clones specific for hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells have been isolated from an anti-KG1a cell scFv phage library. The pathfinder selection has showed advantages to improve the screening efficacy of scFv phage clones against antigens, which present at very low densities on the cell surface.
