Reccent investigations demonstrated that genetically modified tumor cells could be used as vaccines against cancer. In this light, we introduced human interleukin -2 (IL-2) gene into a poorly immunogenic rat fibrosarcoma cell line WBT, a human lung abenocarcinoma cell line AGZY and a highly metastatie sub - cell line Anip973 derived from AGZY. The transduced cells showed no obvious changes in morphology, growth and colony - forming ability in soft agar.Transduction with IL-2 gene rendered the cells more sensitive than the parental cells and cells transduced with NeoR gene alone to the lysis by cytotoxic lymphocytes. High levels of IFN and TNF were detected in the supernatants of cocultured lymphocytes and tumor cells containing IL-2 gene. Tumorigenicity of WBT/IL-2 cells was greatly reduced in syngeneic rats. Metastatic capacity of Anip973 in nude mice was blocked by the transduction of IL-2 gene, but not the transduction of NeoR gene alone. Inoculation of WBT/IL-2 cells conferred rats resistance to the challenge of parental WBT cells.Splenocytes from WBT/IL-2-inoculated rats restimulated with WBT cells in vitro showed high CTL activity against WBT cells. Our results demonstrated the potential application of tumor cells transduced with IL— gene as active vaccine against cancer.

Objective:Combined laparoscopy and hysteroscopy in the diagnosis and therapy of the female infertity is and advanced means in the gynecologcial field.We analysed the causes and the treatments of the 71 infertile patients.Pelvic adhesions,endometrosis and salpingtis were the main causes of infertity in our 71 cases.Of 71 cases,29 cases were primary infertity,in whichc endometriosis,PCOS and anatomic uterine defect were the main causes,and 42 cases were secondary infertity,in which 35 cases (83%) had previous intrauterine operations.All the patients were treated for the causes.We concluded that combined laparoscopy and hysteroscopy can diagnose the causes of infertity and can observe the tubal patency by hysteroscopic tubal cathertetization and hydrotubation,which will direct the treatments and estimate the results of the therapy.Methods:Infertity;Combined Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy.

Doctor's degree is the highest degree for medical education.Nowadays,medical doctor candidates in more and more medical universities are requested to publish research papers in intemational journals embodied in Science Citation Index(SCI),or they can not graduate with doctor's degree.So,it is significant for medical doctor candidates to learn the related knowledge about SCI and Impact Factor(IF).

Objective To define whether correlation exists between the enlargement of lateral ventricles and motor development delay. Methods Motor development was assessed with Peabody Developmental Motor Scale (PDMS) in 28 children with cerebral palsy. Correlation between computerized tomography (CT) findings of enlargement of lateral ventricles (ventricle index,body index,width index and frontal horn index) and motor quotients of PDMS(GMQ,FMQ and TMQ) was analyzed. Results Width index was correlated with all three motor quotients (GMQ,FMQ and TMQ)( P

Objective:To analyze the long-term curative effect of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS), and to study the factors related to the defeat of endoscopic sinus surgery.Method:201 cases（353 sides）of chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps were treated with ESS，and were treated by taking the nasal cavity as a whole unit.Result:Following up survey from 12 months to 24 months postoperatively，it was found that 108 cases were cured （53.7%），82 cases achieved symptomatic relief（40.8%），11 cases remained failure （5.5%）.Conclusion:It is very important to improve the ESS technique in order to reduce the recurrence of nasal polyps and sinusitis and to improve the curative effect of ESS，in addition，the treatment after operation is also indispensable to successful surgery.

Objective To find out some ways to solve the problems which are dealing with the clinical application of intrafix.Methods From February to May 2013,324 patients with back blood using intrafix in emergency department were randomly assigned to the experimental group A and the control group A,with 162 patients in each group.The experimental group A used the method of pressing pipe while pulling out the needles when transfusion was over,while the control group A used traditional ways.206 patients who occurred bubbles in the intrafix among the above two groups were divided into the experimental group B and the control group B.The experimental group B got rid of the bubbles using top-down method,the control group B used traditional ways.The effect of withdrawing the needles and exhaustion of bubbles were compared.The least flushing time of remaining liquid using transfusion pipe flushing method was calculated.Results The experimental group A and the experimental group B were better in withdrawing the needles and exhaustion of bubbles compared with those of the control group A and the control group B.Using the method of drop coefficient to calculate the least flushing time can ensure the drug to be transfused into the body thoroughly.Conclusions When transfusion is over,pressing intrafix pipe will have a better result than the traditional way when pulling out the pipe.Top-down method can clearly settle the problem of intrafix pipe,which can not get rid of bubble via traditional way.Flushing pipe and press pipe method can apparently decrease drug waste.

[Objective]To observe the histomorphology and ultrastructure of the intervertebral disc(I D) in the rat model with cervical vertebral unbalance of dynamic and static force.[Method]Sixty SD rates were randomly divided into 4 groups: 3 months,5 months,7 months and the control group.The cervical I D degeneration model was made by destroying the neck muscle of rats and the tissues wer collected every month.The number,area and thickness of the cartilage end-plate were measured by the means of Miyamoto's Classes.The ultrastructure of the apoptosis cells of the intervertebral disc was observed under the electron microscope.[Result]Compared with the control group,the 3 months group showed degeneratin changes,with disordered structure of the annular fibrosis and thickness increase of calcification layer and decrease of blood vessel unmber in the cartilage layer.Complete fibrosis was found in nucleus pulposus in 5 months model group,with the fibro lamellar structure disappeared and few blood vessel buds.The features of 7 months model group was similar to 5 months and osteophyma had been formed near the bordr of part intervertebal.Under the electron microscope,the number of surface projection and organelles was decreased.Fatty drop and apoptotic body could be seen in disc cells of 3 month model group.Few cells,broken collagen fibers in ECM and more cavitation cells for necrosis in 5 months and 7months model groups could be seen.[Conclusion]The cervical I D of model groups has shown typical morphological changes of degeneration and this trend was more serious with the time passing.In the early and middle stage of degeneration,the apoptosis cells can be seen,but in the terminal stage the cellular necrosis was more common.
