Objective To compare the effecacy and safety of lower dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin versus standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin for treatment of chronic hepatitis C in China.Methods 192 patients with chronic hepatitis C were assigned peginterferon alfa-2b 0.5?g/kg each week plus ribavirin 750～1050 mg/d or standard interferon alfa-2b 3 MIU TIW plus ribavirin 750～1050 mg/d for 48-week treatment and 24-week fellow-up.Results The sustained virological response (SVR)rate in lowe-dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin group was 53.8%,and the SVR rate in standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin was 58.1%.The SVR was similar between the two treat- ment group(P=0.966 for both comparisons).The adverse event rate was higher in peginterferon al- fa-2b plus ribavirin group than in standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin group(P=0.033 for both comparisons),but there was no new or unique adverse event in related to pegylation of interferon alfa-2b. Conclusion The effecacy and safety was similar between lower-dose peginterferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin and standard interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin for treatment of chronic hepatitis C.

The strain of DG7 isolated from the oilwater sample in DAGANG oilfield could produce surfactant ?acids and gas in the culture medium in which the diesel was sole carbon source .The strain was Gram-negative, motive, rod and growed facultatively in the 0 to 18.5% NaCl. Based on its characters, the strain was identified as a member of the genus Aeromonas, but there were some differences between this strain and the described species of this genus in some biochemical features, suggesting that it could be a new species of the genus.

Objective To prepare controlled release microspheres of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)& calcium alginate and observe their effect on proliferation of human umbilical vein endo- thelial cells(HUVEC)in order to provide theoretical basis for controlled release of VEGF facilitating an- giogenesis of tissue engineering bone.Methods VEGF-calcium alginate microspheres were prepared by using the needle extrusion/external gelation method to investigate physicochemical character and in vitro release of VEGF.According to the different ingredients added into the culture medium,the seconda- ry cultured HUVEC were divided into four groups,ie,control group,microsphere group,VEGF group and VEGF-calcium alginate microsphere group,in which the proliferation of the cultured HUVEC was ob- served with cell counting method,MTT method and flow cytometry.Results The calcium alginate mi- crospheres were revealed as spherical shape and evenly distributed,with mean grain diameter of(560?50)?m,carrying capacity of 0.72 ng/mg and the encapsulation efficiency of 54%.Smooth controlled re- lease in VEGF-alginate microspheres lasted for more than 10 days.Proliferation of the cultured HUVEC was accelerated the most in VEGF group at the beginning but in EGF-calcium alginate microsphere group at midanaphase compared with other groups,with statistical difference(P＜0.05).There was no statis- tical difference upon cell counting,cell activity and time point of cell cycle between control group and mi- crosphere group.Conclusion VEGF-sodium alginate microapheres can continue activity of VEGF,re- lease VEGF for over 10 days and promote proliferation cultured HUVEC for a long time.

Objective To study the safety and efficacy of transhepatic arterial infusion embolization using microspheres combined with lipiodol for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Transhepatic arterial chemoembolization(TACE)was performed with 1-2 ml 300-500?m mierospheres and 10-20 ml lipiodol for treatment of HCC.Changes of liver function,AFP,responses of tumor and complications related to embolization were analyzed before and after TACE.Results Thirty six patients with HCC were enrolled into this study.After TACE,patients' liver function got worsen and tumor size decreased significantly(P＜0.05).Conclusion TACE with use of microspheres combined with lipiodol is an effective treatment for HCC,but should be taken carefully to avoid hepatic failure.

Objective To investigate the effects of lipoxin A4 ( LXA4 ) on inflammatory related factors induced by uric acid( UA) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells( HUVECs) . Methods HUVECs were treated with 5, 25, and 50 ng/ml LXA4 prior to exposure to 12 mg/dl UA. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α), interleukin ( IL)-1β, and IL-6 were analyzed with ELISA and realtime PCR. The phosphorylation levels of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases( MAPK) and NF-κB/p65 were observed with Western blot. Results Stimulation of HUVECs with 12 mg/dl UA markedly increased TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production(P<0. 01). Pretreatment with LXA4 significantly inhibited UA-induced production of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in a concentration dependent manner(P<0. 01). The mRNA expressions of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in response to UA were also decreased by LXA4(P<0. 05). Western blot analysis showed that the phosphorylation levels of p38 MAPK and NF-κB/p65 were significantly raised by 12 mg/dl UA in HUVECs(P<0. 05), but attenuated significantly in the presence of 50 ng/ml LXA4. Conclusion LXA4 may inhibit the expressions of inflammatory related factors induced by UA via reducing p38 MAPK and NF-κB/p65 phosphorylation and play a role in anti-inflammation.

Objective To study the relationship between the inflammatory cytokine levels and the expression of hepatic alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) in hyperlipidemia rats and to investigate the intervention effect of Yirui Capsules ( mainly composed of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, Fructus Crataegi, Rhizoma Alismatis, etc). Methods Fifty male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group ( fed with conventional diet, N=10) and high-fat diet group (fed with high-fat diet, N=40). After feeding for 14 d, the forty rats in high-fat diet group were further randomly divided into model control group, and low-, middle-, and high-dose Yirui Capsules groups (140, 280, 560 mg/kg, respectively), 10 rats in each group and the treatment lasting 30 days. And then, the serum levels of lipids were detected, C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) -α in the serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) , and the expression of hepatic α7 nAChR was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) . Results Yirui Capsules in different dosages could improve serum lipid levels in hyperlipidemia rats to various degrees. The contents of serum inflammatory cytokines CRP and TNF-α and the mRNA expression of hepatic α7nAChR were increased in the model control group as compared with those in the blank control group ( P<0.01). The contents of inflammatory cytokines CRP, TNF-αand the mRNA expression of hepatic α7nAChR were decreased in the three Yirui Capsules groups as compared with those in the model control group ( P<0.01). The results of immunohistochemical staining for α7nAChR expression were consistent with RT-PCR results. Conclusion The expression of hepatic α7nAChR is increased in hyperlipidemia rats. Yirui capsules are effective on decreasing inflammatory cytokine levels, improving lipid metabolism, and down-regulating α7nAChR expression.

Objective To explore the mechanism and safety of miltidrug-resistance gene 1(MDR1)transfection into the bone marrow mononuclear cells of rabbit in vitro with the adenovirus vector promoted by ultrasonic microbubble.MethodsBone marrow mononuclear cells of rabbits were collected and divided into 5 groups after cultured in the 6-well plate according to the different experimental conditions(MDR1 gene was transferred into the cells with or without ultrasound irradiation and microbubbles)：conventional culture group (A)，Ad5-MDR1 group(B)，Ad5-MDR1+ultrasound irradiation group(C)，Ad5-MDR1+microbubbles group(D)，Ad5-MDR1+ultrasound irradiation+microbubbles group(E).The positive transfection rate of MDR1 gene in mononuclear cells of different groups were tested by flow cytometry,and the survival rate of cells in different periods were tested by trypan blue exclusion method.Moreover,the appearance and ultramicrostructure of cells were observed by electronmicroscope.Results①The transfection rate of MDR1 gene in different groups were 0.39%±0.11%，5.03%±0.35%，4.93%±0.38%，5.25%±0.80%and 19.93%±1.51%respectively.The transfection rate of MDR1 gene in group E was higher than those in other groups(P＜0.05).②Compared with those in control groups(group A，B，C and D)，the transfection rate in group E was significant raised by ultrasound irradiation and microbubbles.However,there were no significant difference in survival rate of cells between the five groups(P＞0.05).③After ultrasonic irradiation，there were transient holes on the cell membrane，which could disappear after irradiation by ultrasound for 24 hours.And the temporary swelling of organelles was reversible.Conclusions Microbubbles irradiated by ultrasound can cause small transient holes on eell membrane and increase permeability of it，and enhance the transfection of MDR1 gene in bone marrow mononuclear cells with the adenovirus vector，which is safe and available.
