OBJECTIVE: To study the role of P-JNK and P-c-Jun of JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) on nasal mucosa remodeling in allergic rhinitis rats. METHOD: Sixty male Wistar rats (weighing about 200-250 g) were randomly divided into AR group (A group) and B group(control group). The rats in A group were sensitized for inducing AR by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin and Al(OH)₃. Rats in group A were randomized into A4, A8 and A12 group (each had 10 rats). Ovalbumin was dropped in each nasal cavity of every rat for 4,8,12 weeks, respectively. Rats in group B were sensitized by saline instead of OVA, and were also divided into B4, B8 and B12 group. Each group had 10 rats. Pathological changes of nasal mucosa in each period were observed by hematoxylin and eosin stain dyeing. The phosphorylation of JNK and c-Jun were tested by immunohistochemistry. RESULT: In A8 group, mucosal congestion and edema thickening with inflammatory cells infiltration of eosinophils were observed in the eighth week, and the inflammatory changes were significantly increased as time went on. The mean absorbance values of P-JNK and P-c-Jun in A group were significantly higher than those in the corresponding B group (all P < 0.01). Moreover, the mean absorbance values of A12 group were significantly higher than A4 group and A8 group (all P < 0.01 ). CONCLUSION The expression of P-JNK and P-c-Jun in the process of nasal mucosa remodeling in allergic rhinitis rats were increased, which suggested that P-JNK and P-c-Jun played important roles in nasal mucosa remodeling of the allergic rhinitis rats.

Objective To evaluate the technical feasibility and sensitivity of percutaneous bile duct biopsy in obstructive jaundice. Methods Eighty two consecutive patients with obstructive jaundice underwent transluminal bile duct biopsy and brushing since April 2001. The technique was performed through an existing percutaneous transhepatic tract. Multiple specimens were obtained after passing the forceps biopsy or brush into a long 8 French sheath and the specimens were fixed with formalin for pathologic or cytologic diagnosis. Results The successful rate of obtaining specimen with biopsy was 97.6%. There was no major complications occurred. The histopathologic diagnosis was established acquired in 72 of 82 patients with forceps biopsy(sensitivity 87.8%). Sensitivity of biopsy in the 56 patients with cholangiocarcinoma was higher than that in the 22 patients with malignant tumors other than cholangiocarcinoma (92.9% vs. 72.7% P =0.044). The cytologic diagnosis was established in 56 of 74 patients with brush cytology(sensitivity 75.7%). The sensitivity of biopsy in the 82 patients was higher than that of brushing in the 74 patients (87.8% vs. 75.7%, P = 0.049 ). Conclusion Percutaneous transhepatic bile duct biopsy is a simple, minimal invasion, high sensitivity and low complication procedure with high technical successive rate. It is a new approach to establish pathologic diagnosis

Antithrombin III (AT III) is the most important anti-clotting substance. Recombinant human antithrombin III (rhAT III) expressed in transgenic goat milk attracts more and more attention. Develop an effective purification route for rhAT III is vital to its industrial production. An efficient purification method was developed for the rapid purification of rhAT III by isoelectric precipitation and heparin affinity chromatography. First, casein was effectively removed by isoelectric precipitation. rhAT III was further purified by heparin affinity chromatography. In the process of heparin affinity chromatography, the effects of pH and temperature on the stability of rhAT III were studied, and the effects of operating conditions, elution gradient, flow rate and sample loaded, on the purification efficiency were also studied. Under the optimized conditions, the protein recovery of rhAT III was about 90% with purity over 99%, while its activity recovery was about 50%. Such a purification process is very simple and effective, and it would provide a valuable reference for the further scaling-up of industrial production.

By analysing the anatomy of upper cervical segment, the atlas - axis relation in plain X - ray film in 3-1 cases revealed that the joint displacement is one of the important causes for vertebral artery type or sympathetic type cervical spondylopathy. The main manifestations for diagnosing atlas - axis displacement included headache, dizziness, unilateral protrusion and tenderness of the affected vertebra, displacement of tooth protrusion up to 1 mm at anterior mouth -open positions. The most effective therapy was accurate and dexterousmanipulation for reduction.

OBJECTIVE: To study the role of JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) signal transduction pathway on the nasal mucosa remodeling in allergic rhinitis rats, to explore whether IL-1β participates the nasal mucosa remodeling in allergic rhinitis by JNK signal transduction pathway. METHOD: Totally 60 male Wistar rats (weighing about 200-250 g)were randomly divided into A (AR group) and B group (control group). The rats in A group were sensitized for inducing AR by intraperitoneal injection ovalbumin and Al(OH)₃. Ovalbumin was respectively dropped in each nasal cavity of every rat for 4,8,12 weeks(A4,A8,or A12 group) each had 10 rats. The rats in B group were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection saline. Saline was respectively dropped in each nasal cavity of every rat for 4,8, 12 weeks(B4, B8, or B12 group), and each had 10 rats. The concentration of IL-1β in serum and nasal lavage fluid were tested by ELASA. The protein expressions of P-JNK and P-c-Jun were detected by immunohistochemical technique. Linear correlation analysis showed the correlation between levels of IL-1β in serum and P-JNK protein, levels of IL-1β in nasal lavage fluid and P-JNK protein. RESULT: The concentrations of IL-1β in serum and nasal lavage fluid of A group were all significantly higher than those of the corresponding B group (all P < 0.01). Compared with A4 group and A8 group, concentrations of IL-1β in nasal lavage fluid of A12 group were significantly increased (all P < 0.01). However the levels of IL-1β in serum were not significantly different among them (all P > 0.05). Mean absorbance values of P-JNK and P-c-Jun in A group were significantly higher than those in corresponding B group (all P < 0.01) and compared with A4 group and A8 group, those of A12 group were significantly increased (all P < 0.01). Strong positive correlation were found between P-JNK and concentration of IL-1β in serum or nasal lavage fluid (r = 0.835 and r = 0.902, all P < 0.01). CONCLUSION JNK signal transduction pathway plays important role in the nasal mucosa remodeling in allergic rhinitis rats. IL-1β participates in AR nasal mucosa remodeling possibly partly through activating JNK signal transduction pathway.

As a virus-like particle, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was the primary component of hepatitis B vaccine. HBsAg was maintained by the non-covalent interaction of proteins and lipids. The intact structure of HBsAg particle was vital to its function. However, there was no report about the effects of solvent environment on HBsAg structure. In this paper, we studied the effects of temperature, pH, ionic type and salt concentration on HBsAg structure. The results showed that HBsAg was stable at normal temperature, but began to denature above 60 degrees C. The aggregation of HBsAg at pH 3.0 and 4.0 was nearly irreversible, but partly reversible at pH 5.0. The influence of ionic type on HBsAg was generally in accordance with Hofmeister sequence, except that SO4(2-) caused more aggregation than F-. HBsAg aggregates started to be visible in 0.4 mol/L (NH4)2SO4, and the extent of aggregation increased with the salt concentration. Therefore, caution must be taken when using (NH4)2SO4 in the hydrophobic chromatography purification of HBsAg.
