Both indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) and immunoenzymatic staining technique(IEST) were used as methods for the comparable detections of 200 cases of patients with schistosomiasis japonica and 100 healthy individuals. The average positive rate in schistosomiasis cases is 99% with both tests, while the false positive rate in healthy individuals is 5% with the former and 3% with the latter. When 322 cases of other parasitic infections and patients with medical diseases were tested by IFAT and IEST, cross-reaction was observed only in clon-orchiasis, fasciolopsiasis and paragonimiasis, 4-6% with IFAT and 0-4% with IEST respectively. 87.6-93.7% showed negative reaction to both tests in schistosomiasis patients during different stages after treatment. It is considered that IFAT and IEST are effective means of serological diagnosis of schistosomiasis japonica, while IEST can be applied suitably in tbe fields for practical purposes.

BACKGROUND:Up to date,there is not an acceptable method for isolating,culture and amplifying human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs).OBJECTIVE:To explore the most effective way to obtain highly homogenous and undifferentiated hADSCs.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The in vitro cytology experiment was performed at the Key Laboratory of Pathobiology,Ministry of Education,Jilin University from June to December 2008.MATERIALS:Human abdominal adipose tissue resected in the surgery was supplied by the Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University,The informed consent was obtained from patients.METHODS:Human adipose tissue was removed connective tissue and blood vessel,followed by incubation in 0.1% type I collagenase for 60 minutes at 37℃,filtrated then centrifuged.Consequently,the subnatant precipitation was cultured with LG-DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum,incubated at 6-well plate with density of 1×10~9/L,and placed in incubator of 5% CO_2 at 37 ℃.The cultured cells were passaged when the cells reached 80%-90% confiuency,and the 3~(rd) passage of cells were induced to osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Morphological characteristics of hADSCs were observed by laser scanning confocal microscope.Immunophenotypes,cell cycle and growth curve of hADSCs were detected by flow cytometry and immunofiuorescent techniques.In addition,the multiple differentiation potential of hADSCs was detected.RESULTS:hADSCs presented fibroblast-like morphological feature with a flocked array.The 3~(rd) passage of hADSCs had unique immunophenotypes and they were positive for CD73,CD44,CD166,CD105 and CD29,but negative for CD31,CD34,CD45 and HLA-DR.Cell cycle result showed that they had the typical growth characteristics of stem calls,namely,83.81% cells stayed at G_0/G_1 stage,only 16.19% cells were stayed at S+G_2/M stage;The latent phase of the primary culture cells was 2 days prior to and after incubation,followed by 3-6 days of logarithmical proliferation,reached a peak at day 6,and entering the growth platform phase with lower growth speed.The alkaline phosphatase was positive expressed at week 2 of osteogenic induction.And the positive expression of oil-O red staining could be seen at day 3 of adipogenic induction.CONCLUSION:Cells contamination can be reduced by removing connective tissue and blood vessel of adipose tissue,and 0.1% type Ⅰ collagenase for 60 minutes can effective separated stroma cell to matrix fiber,furthermore,ensure a sufficient contact between collagenase and tissures,which provide an supportive for harvesting highly homogenous hADSCs.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different doses of PcTx1,a specific blocker of acid-sensing ion channel 1a,on global cerebral ischemia/repedfusion (I/R) injury in rats,MethodsSixty adult male Sprague Dawley rats (weighing 250-300 g) were randomly divided into 6 grups ( n =10 each):sham operation group (group S),I/R group,different doses of PcTx1 ( 10 ng/ml,group P1 ; 25 ng/ml,group P2 ; 50 ng/ml,group P3 ;and 500 ng/ml,group P4 ) groups.Global cerebral ischemia was induced by the modified procedure of Pulsinelli 4-vessel occlusion.In groups P1,P2,P3 and P4,different doses of PcTx1 ( 10,25,50 and 500 ng/ml),6 μl each,were respectively injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle at the initiation of reperfusion,while equal volume of double distilled water was injected instead in group I/R.Six rats in each group were sacrificed at 24 h of reperfusion,and the brains were immediately removed,Thereafter,the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA),reduced glutathione (GSH) and ritric oxide (NO),the activities of constitutive NO synthase (eNOS) snd inducible NO synthase (iNOS) were detected in hippocampus.Four rats in each group were sacrificed at 72 h of reperfusion,and hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to observe the pathomorphological changes of the hippocampal neurons.ResultsCompared with group S,the other groups showed decreases in the contents of GSH,while increases in the contents of MDA and NO and the activities of cNOS and iNOS ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ).The contents of GSH increased,while the contents of MDA and NO and the activities of cNOS and iNOS decreased in groups P2,P3 and P4 compared with group I/R ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).Compared with group P1,the contents of GSH increased,the contents of MDA and the activities of cNOS decreased in groups P2,P3 and P4,and the contents of NO and the activities of iNOS decreased in groups P3 and P4 ( P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ).Compared with group P2,the activities of iNOS decreased in groups P3 and P4(P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).The damage to neurons in hippocampal CAI was severe in groups I/R and P1,but it was attenuated in groups P3 and P4.ConclusionPcTx1 25,50 and 500 ng/ml (6 μl)injected into lateral cerebral ventricle can attenuate global cerebral I/R injury in rats,and the dose 50 ng/ml (6 μl) is more suitable.

Objective To investigate application of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) on evaluating motor dysfunction degree of patients with cerebral infarction and explore the relationship between infracted focus and cortical spinal tract(CST).Methods Forty patients with cerebral infarctions in the different periods and 30 healthy volunteers were enrolled our study.They all underwent DTT check and then established CST.Meantime,all the patients were measured ADL score according to activities of daily living (ADL) on admission and two months after the onset.Results DTT image was made for both in patients and health control people.The CST was built in people in control group and its shape was like the adults'.Its shape was from the precentral gyrus down to internal capsule and continued to pontine and medulla oblongata.Each successive was form good consistency.The DTT image of patients' health side was like normal and injury corticospinal tract was affected by influence of infarction area at different level,manifested as loss of discontinuity and anatomical configuration consistency.Based on the degree of CST,there were 9 cases in grade Ⅰ,20 cases in grade Ⅱ and 11 cases at grade Ⅲ.DTT image showed that the damage level of CST had an negative relation with ADL score at 2 month after therapy (r =-0.914,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion DTT can show the spatial positions of infarctions and CST at non-invasive lesion and analyze the influence of infarctions and corticospinal tract.Therefore,it can serve as the objective proof for judging the injury of the motor function and evaluating prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the role of serum adenosine deaminase in the diagnosis and treatment of acute,chronic hepatitis.Methods WanFang Data,CNKI and PubMed were retrieved in order to screen literature about the relationship between serum ADA and acute and chronic hepatitis,the retrieval time was from the beginning of the database to December 1st,2016.After evaluating quality of the included studies, the meta-analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship between the level of serum ADA and acute,chronic hepatitis via RevMan 5.2 software.Results A total of 28 articles were identified including 1688 cases with acute hepatitis and 1843 cases with chronic hepatitis.The results of meta-analysis showed that the levels and positive rate of serum ADA were significantly higher in the acute hepatitis groups than that in chronic hepatitis groups(MD=4.13,95%CI(0.43,7.84),P=0.03;OR=1.94,95%CI(1.19,3.14),P=0.007).Funnel plots showed significant publication bias,and may have implications for Meta analysis(P=0.001).Conclusion Heterogeneity of the literatures mainly comes from the clinical heterogeneity and statistical heterogeneity.The serum ADA has certain value in the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic hepatitis.

This article deals with the diagnostic values of IFAT and IEST in human filariasis with both frozen sections of Brugia malayi and Setaria cervi adult worms as antigens. The average positive and the false positive rates of IFAT with two antigens were 84.9-97.1%(45/53-102/105)and 2.9-9.7%(1/35-3/31) respectively, while no cross-reaction was observed in subjects infected with ascaris or hookworm. The average positive and the false positive rates of IEST with two antigens were 94.3-94.9% (99/105-56/59) and 0-2.9% (0/35-l/35) respectively. Both IFAT and IEST with two antigens for the diagnosis of human filariasis were considered to be of higher sensitivity and specificity, frozen sections of adult Setaria cervi being more economical and effective.
