Objective To study the effects of lipopolysaccharide(LPS) on the expression of toll like receptor 4 (TLR4), reactive oxygen species(ROS) and on the proliferation of cells as well as secretion of six proinflammmatory cytokines including TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 levels in SKOV3 cells. And to explore the mechanism of SKOV3 cells in regulation. Methods Cultured primary SKOV3 cells were stimulated with different concentrations of LPS (0.01 μg/ml, 0.1 μg/ml, 1 μg/ml, 10 μg/ml and 20 μg/ml) for 4 h, the TLR4 expression in SKOV3 cells were examined by flow cytometry;1 μg/ml LPS stimulated SKOV3 for 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h respectively, the TLR4 expression and cell cycle in SKOV3, cell proliferation, ROS level as well as cells and TNF-α and IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 levels in the culture medium were assayed by flow cytometry, MTT, CBA assay respectively. Results LPS with different concentrations of LPS stimulation in-duced an increased TLR4 expression, however, the expression was reduced when LPS concentration up to 10 μg/ml. LPS stimulation for 4 h, 8 h induced an increased TLR4 expression and cell proliferation. Stimulated for 24 h, however, the TLR4 expression and cell growth were inhibited in S period. Meanwhile, LPS stimulation for 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h induced a higher ROS secretion in comparison with control group. LPS stimulation induced a stronger cytokine response in comparison with control group, as demonstrated by the production of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8 secretion in cultured SKOV3 cells, while IL-10 and IL-12 with low expression have no obvious difference in the all medium samples. Conclusion TLR4 expression, cell proliferation, ROS and proin-flammmatory cytokine secretion could be induced in SKOV3 through LPS stimulation. The study provide new ex-periment evidences for human ovarian cells SKOV3 immunity regulation and inflammation reaction to promote cells inhibition after LPS stimulation.

This study reported the primary application of FA-ELISA from 107-121kDa fration antibody of Schistosoma Japonicum for detection of the short-term antibody in patients with schistosomiasis. The result showed that this method provided high sensitivity (with positive rate of 93. 33% with 30 cases of schistosomiasis) and good specificity (no false postive in 60 health objects). When one group of schistosome patients were examined with FA -ELISA and with the routine SEA-ELISA before chemotherapy and at 8 months,1 year and 1. 5 year after treatment,it showed good property for evaluation of chemotherapy efficacy with FA -ELISA,which was much better than the routine method.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect of colistin E on Oncomelania hupensis. Methods The molluscicidal effect of colistin E on O. hupensis was checked by using the immersion method and spraying method. The toxicity of colistin E on fish was observed by using the toxic test. Results The snail mortality of each group was 100% when the snails were immersed in the colistin E solutions at a concentration of 5. 0, 1. 0 g/L for 24, 48 h and 72 h separately. When the snails were immersed in the colistin E solution at a concentration of 0. 5 g/L for 24, 48 h and 72 h, the death rates were 95% , 100% and 100% respectively; when the snails were immersed in the colistin E solution at a concentration of 0. 1 g/L for 24, 48 h and 72 h, the mortality was 90%, 95% and 100% respectively; when the snails were immersed in the colistin E solution at a concentration of 0. 01 g/L for 24, 48 h and 72 h, the mortality was 70%, 86% and 100% respectively. The snail mortality by the spraying method in a dose of 35, 70, 140 mg/m2 of colistin E was 60%, 100% and 100%. The result of toxic test showed that the toxicity of colistin E on fish was low. Conclusion Colistin E is an effective molluscicide, and is worthy of investigation further.

Objectives To express the miracidial antigen from eggs of Schistosoma japonicum (Chinese mainland strain) (SjMP10), and investigate the role of the miracidial antigen during the hepatic granuloma formation of schistosomiasis. Methods A pair of specific primers was designed and synthesized according to the nucleotide sequence of the open reading frame of the miracidial antigen gene. The open reading frame of the miracidial antigen gene was amplified, digested by restrictive enzyme(BamHI, SalI), and cloned directly into the expression plasmid pGEX-4T-3 to construct the recombinant plasmid. The recombinant plasmids were transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3), and induced by IPTG to express the fusion protein of GST-SjMP10. The expressed fusion protein was purified by electric elution method, and its antigenicity was examined by Western blotting and lymphocyte proliferation test. Results The gene of miracidial antigen was cloned into the expression plasmid pGEX-4T-3. After induced by IPTG, the recombinant expressed a fusion protein of GST-SjMP10, with a molecular weight of 39 000 approximately. The purified fusion protein showed proper antigenicity that could be recognized by the sera of rabbits heavily infected by Schistosoma japonicum and could stimulate the proliferation of splenic lymphocytes of infected BALB/c mice. Conclusion The miracidial antigen from eggs of Schistosoma japonicum was expressed successfully.

Objective To investigate the value of recombinant fusion protein (GST-HD)of the large hydrophilic domain (HD) of 23 kDa membrane protein of Schistosoma japonicum with the Glu-tathione-S-transferase (GST) of S. japonicum for early diagnosis of schistosorniasis. Methods The rabbits were infected with cercariae of S. japonicum Chinese mainland strain (300 per one). The rabbits' sera before infection and after being infected at different time were collected. The antibodies IgG(s) against recombinant GST-HD and SEA were measured respectively by ELISA to observe the rabbits' immune reaction status to GST-HD and SEA at different time after being infected with the cercariae. At the same time, 90 serum samples of patients with acute schistosorniasis and 30 samples of healthy persons were checked with GST-HD to evaluate its value for early diagnosis of schistosorniasis. Results At the 17th, 21st and 24th day after infection, the positive rates of antibody IgG of rabbits sera against GST-HD were 42.85%, 92.80% and 100.00% respectively, but the positive rates of antibody IgG against SEA were 14. 28% , 50. 00% and 84.60% respectively. The sensitivity of GST-HD for detecting early schistosome infection was higher than that of SEA significantly. The predictive values of positive and negative of GST-HD for detecting acute schistosorniasis was 98. 89% and 96.67%,respectively, and the diagnostic efficacy was 98. 33%. Conclusion The recombinant GST-HD fusion protein has high early diagnostic value for schistosorniasis.

Objective To explore the impact of acute Toxoplasma gondii infection on cerebral proteins and nerve growth in mice by 2D electrophoresis. Methods The cerebral proteins from C57BL/6J mice infected with Toxoplasma gondii and normal paired mice were extracted. The discrepant proteins were checked by 2D electrophoresis. Isoelectric focusing was determined as the first direction (immobilized pH gradient gel 3-10) ,SDS-PAGE as the second direction to execute 2D electrophoresis, and PDQuest 1.0 software was used to analyze 2D electrophoretogram. Results The protein spots in Toxoplasma gondii infected mice and normal paired mice were (132 ±10) and (170 ± 13) , respectively. After the analysis by PDQuest 1. 0 software, only 19 protein spots were found to express in infected mice and only 37 protein spots were found to express in normal paired mice. Additionally, the obvious quantitative changes in a part of proteins of the cerebrum in the both group occurred. Conclusion There are obvious changes in cerebral proteins from mice with acute Toxoplasma gondii infection, which provids useful clues for studying the cerebral proteins injury in acute Toxoplasma gondii infected mice and the new cure drug.
