Objective:To analyze the polymorphism in human cDNA sequence of prothymosin-?(ProT?)by sequencing analysis.Methods:The cDNA of human ProT? was amplified from cells of peripheral blood and cord blood by RT-PCR.The product of RT-PCR was purified and linked with vector pMD18-T.After cloning and sequencing,the sequence of ProT? cDNA was compared with the standard sequence to analyze the polymorphism in the ProT? cDNA sequence.Results:The cloned ProT? cDNA sequence was different from that of the standard.We found 2 kinds of variations:(1)The nucleotide in 107 position was varied and the nucleotides in 110-121 and 191-205 positions were deleted;(2)The nucleotide in 306 position was deleted,mainly in the 60-80 years old group.Conclusion:We have identified 2 kinds of variations in human ProT? cDNA,but the first 28 amino acid in the N-terminal of cDNA of human ProT? are not involved therefore the variations do not affect the function of human ProT?.

OBJECTIVE To study the effect of Qing Yi Tang on acute pancreatitis(AP),especially AP complicated with endotoxemia and its possible mechanism.METHODS Fourty Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups including group A(the control group),group B(the AP group),group C(the AP group treated with Qing Yi Tang),group D(the AP group treated with LPS) and group E(the AP group treated with LPS + Qing Yi Tang).Pathological damage of pancreatic tissue was scored with HE staining.The mRNA expression of TNF-? was measured with semi-quantitative RT-PCR,and activation of NF-?B was detected with flow cytometry(FCM) assay.RESULTS It was shown in results that the expression of TNF-? mRNA,activation of NF-?B and pathological damage of the group B were all obviously higher than those of the group A.After treated with LPS which might promote the activation of NF-?B,there was seen the further rise of the activation of NF-?B,expression of TNF-? mRNA and pathological damage.When Qing Yi Tang intervention was applied,the activation of NF-?B and the expression of TNF-? mRNA could be remarkably relieved,so did the pathological damage of pancreas.CONCLUSIONS Qing Yi Tang may be applied to decrease activation of NF-?B and the expression of TNF-? so as to treat AP or AP with endotoxemia.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association of Graves' disease and Graves' ophthalmopathy with the C/T transition polymorphism at position -318 of promoter and the A/G transition polymorphism at position 49 of exon 1 within cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene.

METHODSThirty-three patients with ophthalmopathy of Graves' disease, fifty-six Graves' patients without ophthalmopathy and sixty normal subjects as control were involved in the present case-control study. The polymorphisms were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Comparisons were made of gene frequencies and allele frequencies between the groups.

RESULTSThe gene frequencies of CT and allele frequencies of T were much higher in Graves' patients with ophthalmopathy than that in the group without ophthalmopathy (P=0.020, P=0.019). The gene frequencies of GG and allele frequencies of G in patients with Graves' disease were significantly increased as compared with control group (P=0.008, P=0.007). The data suggest that smokers with Graves' disease seemed to be more predisposed to ophthalmopathy than non-smokers (P=0.018).

CONCLUSIONOur results suggest that an allele of T at position -318 of promoter is associated with genetic susceptibility to Graves' ophthalmopathy while an allele of G at position 49 of exon 1 is associated with genetic susceptibility to Graves' disease instead. Smoking is believed to be a major risk factor for ophthalmopathy.

OBJECTIVETo observe the difference of androgen and inflammatory cytokines level in atherosclerosis and analyse their relations.

METHODBoth carotid arteries and arteries of lower extremity were subjected to ultrasonic examination by Doppler's method. Those with much atheromatous plaque formation were ranged into case group, and those with normal result formed control group. Total, free testosterone and estradiol were assayed by radioimmunoassay. C reactive protein (CRP) was assayed by nepheloturbidity. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-8 (IL-8), Interleukin-10 (IL-10), Interleukin-18 (IL-18), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) were assayed by ELISA. The mean difference between two groups and the correlation between free testosterone and cytokines were analysed.

RESULTSFree testosterone was (6.337+/-3.371) pg/L in case group and (11.375+/-4.733) pg/L in control group, P<0.01. No differences were found in total testosterone and estradiol. CRP was (27.294+/-10.238) mg/L in case group and (12.843+/-6.318) mg/L in control group, P<0.01. IL-6 was (41.700+/-31.385) pg/L in case group and (25.396+/-20.772) pg/L in control group, P<0.05. IL-8 was (89.249+/-58.357) pg/L in case group and (67.873+/-31.227) pg/L in control group, P<0.05. sICAM-1 was (470.491+/-134.078) pg/L in case group and (368.487+/-97.183) pg/L in control group, P<0.01. sVCAM-1 was (537.808+/-213.172) pg/L in case group and (457.275+/-157.273) pg/L in control group, P<0.05. There were no differences in TNF-alpha, IL-10 and IL-18. Correlation analysis showed that FT (free testosterone) had negative correlation with CRP, IL-6 and sICAM-1. Among them FT had well correlation with CRP, correlation index was -0.678.

CONCLUSIONFree testosterone was in negative correlation with atherosclerosis in old-age male. Free testosterone may have the role of anti-atherosclerosis, and this effect was not achieved by its transformation to estradiol. Low free testosterone level was followed by increased level of inflammatory cytokines. Low free testosterones coexist with inflammation and they both affect the process of atherosclerosis in old-age male.

Objective To explore the alone and joint diagnostic value of serum golgi protein 73 (GP73), alpha-fetoprotein ( AFP) and the percentage of lectin-reactive alpha-fetoprotein ( AFP-L3 ) of primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC) ,and provide a novel method for diagnosis for PHC and screening for highrisk population. Methods ELISA was used to detect the serum level of GP73, AFP and AFP-L3％ in 81 cases of PHC, 176 cases chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis , 30 cases other tumber cancer and 40 cases of health people. Results The sensitivity of GP73, AFP and AFP-L3％ in PHC is 77.78％ ,62.69％ and 51.85％ ,and the specificity is 84. 55％ ,86. 99％ and 96. 34％ ,respectively. Joint detection could increase the sensitivity up to 88.89％. Conclusion GP73 was a high sensitivity mark for dignosis of PHC, while AFP-L3％ was a high specificity mark for dignosis of PHC. The joint detection could improve PHC diagnostic performance.

OBJECTIVETo study the regulating effects of a novel CpG oligodeoxynuleotide and the synergistic effect of chitosan-nanoparticles (CNP) with CpG on immune responses of mice, which were used to develop a novel immunoadjuvant to boost immune response to conventional vaccines.

METHODSA novel CpG ODN containing 11 CpG motifs was synthesized and its bioactivities to stimulate the proliferation of lymphocytes of pig in vitro were detected. Then it was entrapped with CNP prepared in our laboratory by the method of ionic cross linkage, and immunized Kunming mice were co-inoculated with paratyphoid vaccine. The peripheral blood was collected weekly from the tail vein of inoculated mice to detect the contents of IgG, IgA, IgM, and specific antibody against salmonella as well as the levels of interleukin-2 (IL2), IL-4, and IL-6 by SABC-ELISA assay. The numbers of leucocytes, monocytes, granuloytes, and lymphocytes were calculated separately using the routine method. The experimental mice were orally challenged with virulent salmonella 35 days after inoculation.

RESULTSThis CpG ODN could remarkably provoke the proliferation of lymphocytes of pig in vitro in contrast with the control (P < 0.05). Compared with those of the control, immunoglobulins, including IgG, IgA, IgM, and specific antibodies to paratyphoid vaccine, increased significantly in sera from the CpG or CpG-CNP-vaccinated mice (P < 0.05). IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6 increased remarkably in sera from immunized mice (P < 0.05). The leucocytes, monocytes, granuloytes, and lymphocytes of the mice immunized with CpG or CpG-CNP were also increased in number (P < 0.05). After the challenge, these immunity values were elevated in the mice vaccinated with CpG or CpG-CNP. The immunized mice all survived, while the control mice fell ill with evident lesions with diffuse hemorrhage in stomach, small intestine, and peritoneum.

CONCLUSIONSCpG ODN entrapped with CNP is a promising effective immunoadjuvant for vaccination, which promotes humoral and cellular immune responses, enhances immunity and resistance against salmonella by co-administration with paratyphoid vaccine.

Clinical breakpoints are used in phaseⅡorⅢclinical trials to categorize microorganisms if susceptibility to new tested antibacterial agents that means the patient infected by the pathogen will be enrolled the study or not.The role of this consensus is to define procedure and required data to setting breakpoints and how to revaluate it in clinical trials.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic mucous resection with transparent cap (EMR-Cap) and endoscopic multi-band mucosectomy (MBM) in the treatment of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesion.

METHODSA retrospective study was performed to review 30 EMR-Cap cases from December 2008 to December 2009 and 32 MBM cases from January 2010 to January 2011 of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions. The differences between these two techniques in efficacy, safety, and cost were compared.

RESULTSIn EMR-Cap group, the median resection time was 26(10-56) min and median procedure time was 43(22-81) min, significantly longer than those in MBM group [10(7-18) min and 32(28-45) min, P=0.036 and 0.038, respectively]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in total thickness and depth of resected lesions (P>0.05). In EMR-Cap group, the median cost was significantly higher than that of MBM group [(5466±354) vs. (4014±368) RMB, P=0.008)].

CONCLUSIONSEMR-Cap and MBM are minimally invasive, safe and effective methods in the treatment of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions. Compared to the EMR-Cap, MBM is simple with shorter treatment time and lower cost.
