Objective To express the antigen gene Ts21 of Trichinella spiralis, purify the recombinant protein and test its antigenicity. Methods T. spiralis gene Ts21 was sub-cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pMAL-c2X and the recombinant pMAL-c2X-Ts21 was constructed. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E. coli TB1 strain and induced by IPTG. The expression products were purified by MBP-binding affinity chromatography. The antigenicity of the recombinant protein was examined by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Mice were immunized with the recombinant protein, the titer of the immune sera was detected by ELISA. The distribution of Ts21 protein in muscle larvae was observed by IFA. Results The molecular weight of the expressed fusion protein was about Mr 63 500 and the expression level peaked at 4 h post-incubation. The portion of the fusion protein accounted for 18.2% of all the protein by thin-layer gel optical scanning. Western blotting demonstrated that the recombinant protein was recognized by sera from mice infected by T. spiralis (T1) and T. nelsoni (T7) as well as sera of patients with trichinellosis, but not by sera from mice in-fected with T. nativa (T2), T. britovi (T3) and T. pseudospiralis (T4). The recombinant protein did not react with sera from patients with ancylostomiasis, cysticercosis and schistosomiasis, but cross-reacted with sera from patients with parag-onimiasis, clonorchiasis and echinococcosis. High titers of antibodies were produced in mice immunized with the recom-binant protein. IFA showed that the Ts21 protein was mainly distributed in the cuticle of muscle larvae. Conclusion The Ts21 antigen gene of T. spiralis has been expressed and the recombinant protein shows antigenicity.

Objective To identify the level of functional immunity as measured by the ImmuKnow assay in Chinese stable liver transplant recipients and to correlate these values with the dose and the trough levels of immunosuppressant, and with other clinical parameters of these patients. Methods Functional immune response was assessed by the ImmuKnow assay in 46 blood samples taken from 46 stable liver transplant recipients from Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University Liver Transplantation Center. Results The average ATP value in these stable liver transplant recipients was 203±114 ng/ml (range: 38.47 ATP ng/ml to 524.06 ATP ng/ml) at 22± 15 month post liver transplantation. There was no correlation either between ImmuKnow ATP values and the tacrolimus trough levels, or between ImmuKnow ATP values and the liver function (P<0. 05). Stepwise multiple regression analysis identified WBC and CD3+, CD3+ CD4+ as independent predictors of ImmuKnow assay levels when age, gender and underlying diagnosis were taken into account (P<0. 05). Five patients who were detected to have active HCV infection had lower ImmuKnow ATP values (<61 ng/ml). Conclusions The Cylex ImmuKnow assay ATP values were lower in Chinese stable liver transplant recipients compared with American patients. Further investigation is required to determine the role of the ImmuKnow assay in tailoring immunosuppressant therapy in liver transplant recipients.

AIM: To explore the relationship of central retinal vein occlusion ( CRVO) and atherosclerosis ( AS) .
METHODS:Fifty cases of CRVO patients were chosen as the observation group in our hospital from October 2012 to October 2014, other 50 patients with AS ( non-CRVO) as control group. In the control group, 22 cases of AS mild stenosis, moderate stenosis in 24 cases, 4 cases of severe stenosis ( 3 cases implanted stent ) . According to the severity, two grade prevention primary prevention therapy, and cerebral vascular disease treating stroke, corresponding drug treatment was undergone. Two groups of patients were performed cervical carotid artery color Doppler ultrasound examination, including assessing plaque, carotid artery intima-media thickness ( IMT) , the degree of stenosis of internal carotid artery blood flow velocity and the systolic peak ( PSV ) , end diastolic blood flow velocity ( EDV) , resistance index ( RI) values for kinetic parameters etc. All the indexes of the two groups were compared with color Doppler ultrasound examination results, to evaluate the correlation between CRVO and AS.
RESULTS: In the observation group, 15 cases were detected of carotid artery with mild stenosis, 28 cases of arterial diameter reduced <50%, carotid artery moderate stenosis, arterial diameter was reduced from 50% ~69%, 6 cases of carotid artery stenosis, arterial diameter was reduced from 70% ~99%, 1 patient with ipsilateral carotid artery near occlusion. In the control group, 22 cases were of AS mild stenosis, moderate stenosis in 24 cases, 4 cases of severe stenosis ( 3 cases implanted stent ) . The eyes with CRVO increased IMT, PSV and EDV decreased, RI value increased (P<0. 05). Compared with the control group, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus in observation group were statistically significant difference (P<0. 05). The control group of 2a of follow-up showed no recurrence during CRVO.
CONCLUSION: CRVO and AS are highly correlated, the neck of Doppler ultrasound examination can clearly reflect the central retinal vein blood supply, the standard treatment for AS disease, can reduce the risk of CRVO, with certain clinical significance.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the subjective and objective burden given by patients with mental disorder in a family, and probe into the family interference therapy model.METHODS: The method of looking up documentation was used to investigate the information about the family of patients with mental disorder. The study is to mainly investigate the burden status of Chinese family, observe the effect of social consensus on the family of the patients with mental disorder, detail explain and analyze the different burden and needs of the family of the patients with mental disorder in urban and rural area. Ant the same time, the family interference therapy model was introduced to apply in China.RESULTS: Objective family burden mainly includes economic burden and physical burden induced by earing for patients. Subjective burden are mainly mental crucifixion of the family member given by the patients with mental disorder; even severe mental injury. Social stigma can bring more serious subject burden to the Chinese family. Mental health services center reduces the depression of the family, and single-family session was used to further treat mental weakness and internal conflict of each family. The object to establish family support group was mainly to share the education and experience.CONCLUSION: Family members of the patients with mental disorder bear the subjective and objective burden. Family interference therapy can postpone the relapse of mental disorder, also improve the status of the patient in family and the harmonious degree of the whole family.
