Objective: To observe effective of antitumor immunity elicited by heat shock protein70(HSP70) associated peptide complexes isolated from hepatoma (HCaF), a tumor model of no MHC Ⅰmolecule expression in mice. Methods: Specific active immunization and adoptive cellular immunization assay was adopted to observe the immunoprotective effect elicited by HSP70 associated peptide complexes purfied from the HCaF. Results: Mice immunized with HSP70 associated peptide complexes were protected from HCaF challenge. The immunoprotective effect in female mice was better than the male groups. Adoptively transferred immune spleen cells of mice which had been immunized with HSP70 associated peptide complexes could be elicited immunity against HCaF challenge, and the mice free of tumor can resist repeated challenge, the maximal challenge quantities exceeded 1?10 7 HCaF cells. Mice immunized once with spleen cells pulsed by HSP70 associated peptide complexes could also be elicited certain immunity against HCaF challenge. Conclusions: HSP70 associated peptide complexes derived from the HCaF can elicit no MHC Ⅰ molecule restrictive immunoprotective effect against HCaF and could be continuously enhanced by repeated challenge with alive HCaF cells. Adoptively transferred immune spleen cells of mice which had been immunized with HSP70 associated peptide complexes could provide protection against HCaF cells challenge.

Objective To report the diagnosis and treatment of an imported case of schistosomiasis haematobium,including the pathological features of the disease and therapeutic efficacy of praziquantel. Methods The data of the patient with schistoso?miasis haematobium were collected,and the pathological features of the bladder tissue were observed under a microscope. More?over,the patient was treated with praziquantel,and his urine was collected before and after the treatment. The eggs in the urine were examined by a microscope after sediment and the miracidia were hatched. Results The patient once worked in Angola for three months,and after returning home he had the symptoms of intermittent painless terminal hematuresis. It was ineffective af?ter anti?inflammatory treatment in a number of hospitals. There were no sand spots discovered under the cystoscope. However , the inflammatory reaction to parasite with a lot of eosinophils infiltration in the bladder mucosa was found on the pathological sec?tions under a microscope,and the egg structure was observed with individual characteristics. The eggs were detected in the urine and the miracidia were hatched before the praziquantel treatment. The hematuria symptoms disappeared after the praziquantel treatment. The eggs were still detected in the urine 7 days post?treatment,but the miracidium could not be hatched. One month and 6 months post?treatment,the eggs were not detected in the urine. Conclusions The imported cases of schistosomiasis hae?matobium are often misdiagnosed,and therefore,it is necessary to strength the health education to the workers overseas and also to improve the ability of diagnosis in medical staff. For the case reported in this paper,there are typical structure of Schistosoma haematobium eggs and egg?granulomas on the pathological sections of bladder tissues. Praziquantel has satisfactory treatment re?sults.

Purpose To investigate relationship between androgen receptor and apoptotic index and to further understand the tumor biology of prostate cancer. Methods Fifty-six patients with histologically proven prostate cancer and 20 cases with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) were collected. Androgen receptor(AR) were stained by 2H12 monoclonal antibody using immunohistochemical method. The apoptotic index (AI) was determined by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transterase-mediated dUTP biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique on serial sections of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded tissues. Results AR was not found significantly difference (P>0.05) between prostate cancer and BPH. The association of AR with AI according to Gleason score were not observed in prostate cancer. AI were significantly higher in prostate cancer compared to BPH (P<0.05).AI were also significantly higher in AR-positive prostate cancer than in AR-negative prostate cancer(P<0.05). Conclusion AR expression can induce prostate cancer cells to become apoptosis, and may be a useful predictor in functional classification and endocrine response of prostate cancer.
