Cholangiolocellular carcinoma (CLC) is a rare type of primary liver cancer,which is thought to originate from hepatic progenitor cells.CLC is categorized as a different tumor type from the conventional intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (cICC) due to its unique histological and embryological features.This review summarizes the clinical,radiological and pathological characteristics and surgical outcomes of cICC and CLC.This pathological classification may provide important clinical implications for the treatment and outcome evaluation of this disease.

A combination vaccine which consists of ≥2 immunogens is intended to provide protection against two or more diseases or against multiple serotypes of a single disease. The use of combination vaccines decrease the number of vaccine injections in the regular immunization schedules. However,the development of combination vaccines is more complicated than monovalent vaccines,preservatives and adjuvants used with one component may alter the potency of other components. Physical,chemical,and biological interactions between the components of combination vaccines must be considered to avoid detrimental effects on safety or efficacy. Therefore combination vaccines present unique challenges for product evaluation. This paper presents a review of research application status,the evaluation of effectiveness and safety,as well as development prospects on combination vaccines.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of HLA matching in highly sensitized recipients of renal allografts.Methods Recipient's panel reactive antibody (PRA) was detected by using ELISA test with Lambda antigen tray (LAT).Donor and recipient HLA classⅠtyping was performed with special monoclonal tray,and HLA classⅡgene typing with micro-sequence specific primers (Micro-SSP).Results There were 104 recipients with anti-HLA class-ⅠIgG antibody,76 with anti-HLA class-ⅡIgG antibody,and 44 with both anti-HLA class-1 and anti HLA class-ⅡIgG antibody respectively in 136 sensitized recipients.HLA class-ⅠIgG antibody positive rate was 11%-97 %,with an average of 49.6%?23.8%;The common public epitopes antibody was not found in each recipient of 13 cases with PRA＜20%,but was found in I2 recipients in 44 cases with PRA be- tween 20%-50%,and 39 recipients in 47 cases with PRA＞50%.HLA class-ⅡIgG antibody posi- tive rate was 17%-100%,with an average of 28.2%?63.8%.The number of cases of 0,1,2,3, 4 MM was 7 (5.1%),26 (19.1%),47 (34.6%),39 (28.7%) and 17 (12.5%) respectively by the standard of conventional HLA antigen matching;however the number of the recipients with 0,1, 2,3 MM was 31 (22.8%),53 (39.0%),36 (26.5%) and 16 (11.7%) respectively according to the rule of HLA CREGs matching and none with 4 MM.Rates of acute rejection in sensitized recipi- ents with 2MM and 3MM HLA-CREGs were 25.0% and 37.5% respectively and were significantly higher than those with 0MM (P＜0.05,＜0.05 respectively).Kidney year-survival was decreased when the number of MM of HLA CREGs matching increased.Conclusion The HLA CREGs matching can improve the ratio of well-matched significantly.Good HLA matching can reduce the incidence of acute rejection in sensitized recipients and increase the survival rate of grafts.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics by using CT, MRI and biochemistry test on the X linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X ALD) Methods The clinical,neuro imaging and determinations of plasma very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) of 12 cases with X ALD were analysed Results The main clinical features consisted of the childhood onset,progressive auditory, visual and/or intelligent impairment, behavioural changes,epileptic seizures and melanodermia. CT or MRI scans demonstrated that the demyelinating lesions were located on the bilateral white matter in occipital,posterior parietal and temporal lobes.The levels of hexacosanoic acid (C 26:0 ) and the ratio of C 26:0 to docosanoic acid (C 22:0 ) were increased. Conclusions ALD is an inherited disease as an X linked trait.The childhood X ALD is characteristiced by progressive auditory, visual and intelligent deterioration.The abnormalities of CT or MRI scan and the levels of the plasma VLCFAs are crucial to the diagnosis of X ALD.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on the changes in myocardial Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4)and TNF-αand NF-κb protein expressions in ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R).Methods Thirty healthy male SD rats weighing 250-320 g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=10 for each):Group A,sham operation;Group B,I/R;and Group C,propofol + I/R.In Groups B and C myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of the left anterior descending artery (LAD)for 30 min,followed by 120 min reperfusion.In Group C propofol was given intravenously 1 0 min before myocardial ischemia,followed by continuous infusion of propofol at 5 mg/(kg·h)until the end of 120 min reperfusion.In Groups A and B normal saline instead of propofol was given. The myocardial tissues were taken at the end of 120 min;ultrastructural changes of myocardial cells were observed under X-ray electron microscope and the expressions of TLR-4 mRNA as well as TNF-αand NF-κb protein were determined.Results Ultrastructural observation under electron microscope showed significantly worsened damage in myocardial tissue structure and mitochondria in Groups B and C compared with Group A.The myocardial expressions of TLR-4 and TNF-αand NF-κb protein were significantly higher in Groups B and C than in control Group A.The myocardial expressions of TLR-4 and TNF-αand NF-κb protein were down-regulated in Group C compared with Group B.Conclusion Intravenous injection of propofol can protect against myocardial damage.Propofol can suppress the increase in myocardial TLR-4 and TNF-αand NF-κb protein expressions induced by I/R.

The mature seeds and excised embryos of Dalbergia odorifera were used as materials to study the effect of moisture content on their survival, as well as the effect of rapid freezing and vitrification freezing method on seeds and in vitro embryos cryopreservation. The results showed that the germination rate and vigor decreased from 82.67%, 85% to 18.35%, 25% respectively, when the seed moisture content decreased from 15.04% to 8.14%; and the germination rate decreased from 82.67% to 37.50%, 25.37% respectively by vitrification freezing method and rapid freezing method, when the seed moisture content decreased from 15.04% to 9.37%. Among all the moisture content gradient, 12.35% moisture reached the maximal germination rate, which were 63.58% and 50.45% respectively by vitrification freezing and rapid freezing; and when the embryo moisture content was 26.32%, the germination rate decreased from 95.67% to 58.31% and 33.82% respectively by vitrification freezing and rapid freezing. And when the moisture content was in the range of 14.17% -21.34%, the germination rate was a bit of decrease. The experiment results showed that the optimum conditions of seed cryopreservation were: moisture content 12.35%, vitrification freezing; and the optimum conditions of in vitro embryo cryopreservation were: moisture 15.04%, vitrification freezing. In conclusion, the effects of moisture content on germination rate after cryopreservation in D. odorifera seeds and embryo were significant, and vitrification freezing method is much better than rapid freezing method.
