Non-surgical therapy is important to liver cancer treatment. Actinotheraphy and chemotherapy, because of their less specific for cancer tissue and serious side effect, badly affect the patients' life qualities, sometimes even endanger the patients lives. Hepatocellular carcinoma specific antibodies have been the focus of liver cancer biotherapy. After 20 years of study since 1975, it has been demonstrated that antibodies derived from mouse could not efficiently stimulate the functions of human reactor, but could induce human anti-mouse antibody responses which could bring about serious side effects. The application of DNA recombination technique provides a good method for resolving the immune selection problem. The techniques of humanoriginated antibodies and phage displaying will lead to development of innovative strategies to manage liver cancer. In our country, the antibody products aimed at cancer all originated from mouse while the study of human antibodies is still at its primary stage. Non-human antibodies has been forbidden in clinical trails by FDA in America since 2001. It can be speculated that human antibody products will domminate the future market rapidly.

The aim of the present paper intends to explore the international experiences of healthcare profes-sional organizations and its enlightenment for China. The functions of health professional organizations in advanced countries include certification and accreditation, self-discipline, academic exchanges, political participation, service for industry, member rights protection and so on. The legal authorization, comprehensive supervision and competitive market mechanisms which make sure these functions perform well are worth learning for China.

This article is based on a questionnaire survey of healthcare professional organizations and interview leaders of them. The results of this investigation show that the number of staff is small, and lack of highly qualified human resources. The organizations rely on donation for income and some of them run at a deficit. The functions such as professional self-discipline are not well performed. The analysis reveals four reasons why functions are not well per-formed:the bureaucratic style of the professional organizations and unclear legal status;the limited authorization from legal and administrative bodies;the defects in the governance system and the lack of capacity. Four aspects of policy recommendations are were proposed: to clearly define the role of the professional organizations and authorization through legal and administrative procedures; to strengthen support of professional organizations through various poli-cies;to improve governance and build comprehensive regulation mechanisms;to enhance the capacity of these organi-zations and so on.

The characteristics of health care require that health care professional organizations play an impor-tant role in health governance. The role of health care professional organizations in China has not been clearly defined and their functions have not been fully developed. This paper explores the nature, and the functions of health care professional associations in China. Based on the analysis of health governance characteristics in China, the role, and functions of the health care professional organizations in China’s health governance were defined and relevant policy recommendations are were proposed.

Objective To investigate the myocardium protective effect of immunoinflammatory response induced by preinfarction angina. Methods Eighty-eight patients of acute myocardial infarction were divided into preinfarction angina group (48 subjects) and sudden onset group (40 subjects). The incidence of severe arrhythmia,heart failure,cardiac shock and in-hospital mortality were assessed in the two groups. The myocardial infarction size,ventricular function,coronary angiography were compared between the two groups. Some immunoinflammatory markers levels were detected. Results In preinfarction angina group,the incidences of severe arrhythmia,heart failure,and in-hospital mortality were lower (P

BACKGROUND: It has been found that vascular endothelial growth factor can induce the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into endothelial cells, but can the vascular endothelial growth factor gene promote the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into vascular endothelial cells in the damaged organ under the hypoxic environment? OBJECTIVE: To observe whether human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by vascular endothelial growth factor could differentiate into vascular endothelial cells under hypoxia. METHODS: The third passage of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in vitro. Cells in the control group were cultured with conventional culture medium, while those in experimental group were cultured with adenovirus vector containing vascular endothelial growth factor in 5% O2. After 2 weeks of culture, morphological observation and surface-related molecular detection were performed. The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor and endothelial nitric oxide synthase were detected by ELISA. The expression of endothelin and prostacyclin was detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The number of cells in the control group was more than that in the experimental group. The cells in the control group were crowded and arranged irregularly, showing a fiber-like growth, while those in the experimental group were mostly triangular or polygonal, exhibiting a colony-like growth. (2) CD31 was negative in the control group, while CD105 was positive and the positive rate was 99.7%, indicating that the cells still showed the phenotype of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The positive rate ofCD31 was significantly increased to 30.33% in the experimental group and the positive rate of CD105 expression was decreased to 58.11%, indicating a typical phenotype of endothelial cells. (3) Compared with the control group, the expression of endothelin, vascular endothelial growth factor and endothelial nitric oxide synthase increased significantly in the experimental group (P < 0.05), and the expression of prostacyclin decreased significantly (P < 0.05). All these findings indicate that vascular endothelial growth factor can promote the differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into vascular endothelial cells under hypoxia.

BACKGROUND:Kalikrein 1 is an important component of the kalikrein-kinin system. Studies have shown that kalikrein can protect the cardiovascular system by promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting myocardial inflammation, but there is no report on its effect on inducing differentiation of stem cels. OBJECTIVE: To determine the transfection efficiency of kalikrein 1 adenoviral vector in rat bone mesenchymal stem cels. METHODS:Using adenovirus as a vector, the target gene kalikrein 1 was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Fluorescence microscopy, MTT method and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect of transfection and determine the optimal multiplicity of infection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adenovirus carrying kalikrein 1 was successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Results from flow cytometry showed that the transfection efficiency was associated with the multiplicity of infection. When the multiplicity of infection was 150, the transfection efficiency was 80.8%. MTT results showed that when the multiplicity of infection was 200, the cel growth was inhibited remarkably. These findings indicate that adenovirus-mediated kalikrein 1 can be successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels with the optimal multiplicity of infection=150.

Aim To screen antibodies of novel purinoceptor as a marker for further study of the purinoceptor. Method BALB/c mice were immunized for 4 times with rat aortic endothelial cell. Then the phage display system was used to construct a single-chain Fv fragment (ScFv) cDNA library from the total RNA of immunized mice. The characteristics of novel purinoceptor not existing on vascular smooth muscle cell but on aortic endothelium were used to enrich the aortic endothelium specific antibodies. Induced with IPTG, these antibodies were secreted into the periplasm of E. coli. The functional experiment of novel purinoceptor named organ bath experiment was used to screen out the positive ScFv from the soluble expressed antibodies. Immunohistochemistry experiment was used for positive ScFv identification. Results The total mouse anti-rat endothelium lgG is 1 ∶16 000. 8?106 mouse anti-rat endothelium ScFv cDNA library was successfully constructed. After 4 times of rat endothelium and rat smooth muscle cells screening, 2 500 ScFv cDNA binding membrane of aortic endothelium was enriched. After 4 times of functional screening, a phage-ScFv named B inhibiting the adenosine induced NO dependent construction by 83.4%?21.6% was selected from the expressed antibodies. Immunohistochemistry experiment showed that ScFv-B combined with aortic endothelium specifically and functional experiment showed that ScFv-B did not have any effect on adenosine induced ileum contraction, indicating that ScFv-B specifically binding to the novel purinoceptor. Conclusions ScFv-B binding specifically to the novel purinoceptor was selected by phage display technique and functional screening experiment which provide a good marker for further study of the novel purinoceptor.
