Objective To establish an in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation axon injury model in rat hippocampal neurons in order to found a basis for research concerning the injury of oxygen glucose deprivation and axons regeneration. MethodsThe hippocampal neurons isolated from rats 24 h after born and cultured for 7 d were exposed to D-hanks solution with nitrogen gas instead of the original culture medium for 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 h respectively, and then continue to be cultured in the original culture medium with oxygen. LDH content in the culture media was measured at 1, 5, 24, 48 and 72 h after reoxygenation. The morphological changes of neuron and axon were observed with inverted phase contrast microscopy. ResultsAfter oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation injury, hippocampal neurons became darker, swollen, and were with shorten axons. With the elapse of time, the LDH content was increased. The survival rate of hippocampal neurons was higher and the change of axon length was more obvious in the group of oxygen-glucose deprivation for 0.5 h than in the other groups. ConclusionAn in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation axon injury model in rat hippocampal neurons is successfully established.

Objectives To study the influential factors of the von Clauss method and to promote the method for fibrinogen assay in clinical laboratories in China. MethodsKits of foreign and domestic products were used. Calibration curves for fibrinogen determination were established, and calibration plasma was used for comparison. Effects of pH value, thrombin activity, and temperature on the measurement were studied.Results The reproducibility of the von Clauss method using domestic thrombin and related reagents was excellent, the within day CV being 0.039 1, and the between day CV 0.049 7. The percentage variations of calibration plasma determination, with the foreign fibrinogen assay kits using domestic reagents, were +3.17% , +4.76%, and -6.03%, respectively. Determination of a lyophilized plasma using the two sources reagents showed similar results.Conclusions Thrombin and relevant reagents produced in China could be used as a substitute for kits purchased abroad, which would promote the use of von Clauss method in clinical laboratories of China.

Methods The CT and MRI findings of ten cases of hypertensive encephalopathy with the charge of CT,MRI appearance of FLAIR (fluid attenvated inversion-recovery), DWI(difussion weighted imaging),ADC(apparent diffusion coefficient) were analyzed retrospectively. Results Of ten patients,3 cases had abnormal finding in the cranial CT;10 cases had abnormal finding in the cranial MRI,the lesions were demonstrated as slightly hypointensity on T1WI and slightly hyperintensity on T2WI and remarkably hyperintensity on FLAIR,and iso or slightly hyperintensity on DWI,and remarkably hyperintensity on ADC.The lilateral parietal occipital lobes and cerebellar hemisphere and Brain Stem were the more common sites. Conclusions The only characteristric finding of hypertensive encephalopathy in MRI and CT imaging studies is vasogenic edema,especially in the subcortical white matter of the parietal and occipital lobes bilaterally,and cereballar hemisphere et al;especially FLAIR,DWI and ADC of MRI can be helpful for diagnosis and diffenential diagnosis,prognosis and curative effect of hypertensive encephalopathy.

Objective: To investigate the vaccine potency of GM-CSF anchored B16 tumor cells. Methods: In this study, mGM-CSF was expressed on surface of B16 mice melanoma cells by GPI-modifying. C57BL/6 mice were inoculated with GM-CSF anchored cells and wide-type B16 cells to evaluate whether the GM-CSF anchored cells could elicit a protective and systemtic antitumor response. Results: GM-CSF anchored cells resulted in remarkable loss of tumorgenicity in syngenetic mice. The tumor occurrence rate of GM-CSF anchored B16 cells was 58. 8% on C57BL/6 mice with 1 ? 106 B16 cells/mice inoculated ( n = 12) and that of wide-type B16 cells was 100% , The C57BL/6 mice receiving inoculation with 5 ? 105GM-CSF anchored cells/mice never grew tumor. These mice were challenged with wide-type B16 cells, and only a minority of mice grew tumor after wide-type B16 cells inoculation. Conclusion:GM-CSF protein anchored cells could elicit a protective and systemtic antitumor responses.

Objective To investigate the changes and significance of early immune response in specific T cell with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis(IPA) patients. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated from whole blood of 8 cases of healthy individuals (healthy group) and 24 cases of IPA patients (IPA group, including 6 cases of pathological diagnosis, 9 cases of clinical diagnosis and 9 cases of tentative diagnosis), and the heat-inactivated Aspergillus fumigatus spores (Conidia) was used as an antigen to stimulate PBMCs produce Aspergillus-specific T lymphocytes. Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) secreation, type and ratio of cytokine synthesis was examined. Results In IPA group, dot enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISPOT) showed that the positive rate of IFN-γin pathological diagnosis patients and clinical diagnosis patients (5/6,7/9) was higher than that in tentative diagnosis patients (3/9). The positive rate of IFN-γin IPA group was 62.5%(15/24), in healthy group was 0 (0/8), and there was significant difference (P<0.05). The levels of CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T in IPA group were 0.202 0±0.085 6 and 1.01±0.34, in healthy group were 0.3853±0.1265 and 1.55±0.41. The levels of CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T in IPA group were significantly lower than those in healthy group ( P<0.05 or<0.01). The level of CD 8+T in IPA group was 0.298 5±0.069 1, and in healthy group was 0.257 6±0.102 6. The level of CD8+T in IPA group was 05). Conclusion Conidia as antigen can induce the specific Th1-type immune response of IPA, and display the immune status of the IPA patients, and can provide new ideas and methods for the diagnosis and assessment of the disease.
