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.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of ATP content in rat cerebral cortex after transient ischemia followed by reperfusion and the relationship between the change of energy and the recovery of neural function.Methods The rats were subjected to 10 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). At the time point of 0 h, 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 72 h after reperfusion, ATP contents of frontal and parietal cortex were measured by capillary zone electrophoresis.Results At the end of 10 min ischemia, ATP content fell dramatically to less than 20% of the control level. After reperfusion, ATP content recovered gradually. After 1 h, 3 h, 6 h and 12 h of reperfusion, ATP content returned to 70.5%, 65.7%, 84.8% and 86.9% of the control level ( P=0.052, 0.030, 0.332 and 0.491). From 24 h on until 72 h after reperfusion, ATP content decreased again, reaching half of the control level ( P=0.003 and P=0.023). After 10 min ischemia, limb function recovered gradually and completely at last. From 24 h on until 72 h after reperfusion, unwillingness of action and eating was found.Conclusions The recovery of cellular energy system function is delayed even though the reperfusion is in time after transient cerebral ischemia. Furthermore, secondary failure of cellular energy system function occurrs with the reperfusion proceeding. These phenomena are probably responsible for the delayed recovery of neural function after cerebral ischemia in spite of reperfusion.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of sodium tanshinone ⅡA sulfonate(STS) on adriamycin-induced H9c2 cell apoptosis. Methods H9c2 cells were divided into four groups: the control group, the ADR group, the STS group, and the AS(ADR+STS) group. MTT assay were used to detect cell proliferation and cell death. The cell cycle of H9c2 cells were determined by flow cytometry assay. Protein expression of Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase-3 was detected by Western blot assay. Results Compared with the control group, cell proliferation was significantly reduced , and the number of the cells was significantly increased in the G0/G1 phase in the ADR group(P < 0.01, P < 0.05). At the same time, the expression of Caspase-3 was dramatically enhanced and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was significantly reduced (P < 0.05, P < 0.01) in the ADR group. However, pretreatment of STS increased H9c2 cell proliferation, decreased the number of the arresting cells, inhibited the expression of Caspase-3, and improved the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax (P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusions STS can attenuate ADR-induced myocardial cell apoptosis.
