Objective To construct DNA vaccine expressing HIV-1 AE2f gp145-tat-rev-nef fusion gene( AE-Gp145TRN) and to compare the immunogenicities of DNA vaccines expressing Tat, Rev and Nef in gene fusion formulations of tat-rev-integrase(c-half)-vif-nef( AE-TRIVN) and AE-Gpl45TRN. Methods DNA vaccine was constructed by inserting the codon optimized HIV-1 AE2( gp145-tat-rev-nef fusion gene into mammalian expression DNA vector. In vitro expression efficiency of the constructed DNA vaccine was determined by Western blot and the immunogenicities of AE-Gpl45TRN and AE-TRIVN were compared by immunizing female BALB/c mice. IFN-r ELISPOT assay was used to read out the specific T cell immunity. Results Western blot assay showed the constructed DNA vaccine could be expressed efficiently in vitro. After vaccination, AE-TRIVN mounted significantly higher T cell responses against Tat, Rev and Nef[(148±91)SFCs/106 splenocytes]than Gpl45TRN[(55±28) SFCs/106 splenocytes]. Specific T cell responses elicited by AE-TRIVN predominantly targeting Rev, whereas Gpl45TRN could significantly enhance T cell responses against Nef. Conclusion AE-TRIVN and Gpl45TRN induced distinct T cell response modalities, which implied different gene fusion formulations may affect the immunogenicity of specific DNA vaccines.

ObjectivePresent treatment in plastic surgery on giant congenital melanocytic nevus has always been a tough practice because it is difficult to achieve balance between effects and costs of treatment.This paper aimed to explore the concrete procedure of tangential excision and dermabrasion in treatment of adult giant congenital melanocytic nevus. Methods Taking into consideration pathological examination results before surgery,diseased regions,psychological expectancy and other factors,we used a humby knife or globe grinding head to remove giant congenital relanocytic nevus by wiping off the surface of it in 10 cases.After operation,the operated area of the skin underwent a process of healing in a moisturized state.In each case,surgical procedure was carried out by 1 2 sta ges,with the interval period ranges from 3 months to 6 months.ResultsOne to 3 years follow-ups showed that among those cases,5 cases obtained good results in which skin color of surgical area turned to normal and pathological examination showed that nevus cells disappeared,4 cases achieved improvement,and 1 case was relapsed.ConclusionsThe two alternative methods for treatment of giant congenital melanocytic nevus,either tangential excision or dermabrasion,with combination of pathological examination results,diseased regions,and psychological expectancy should be taken into consideration,which can remain a maximum balance between effects and costs of treatments.Tangential excision and dermabrasion are effective in some cases of giant congenital nevus where traditional methods do not work,or in order to reduce the cost of body appearance in treatment.Therefore,these two methods deserve to be adopted extensively in clinical therapy.But it still needs further accumulation of experience in practice and longer period of follow-up after operation.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of CT angiography (CTA) of vertebral artery dissection (VAD) value. Methods We retrospectively analysed vertebral artery dissection in 30 patients (32 branches) according to the results of DSA. Tow radiologists independently analyzed the CTA images, and the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CTA in VAD patients were determined. The consistency of DSA and CTA results were evaluated by Kappa test. Results Thirty two branches of 60 vertebral arteries were diagnosed as VAD by DSA, 31 branches were diagnosed as VAD by CTA, 1 branch was misdiagnosis. Eight branches with dissection aneurysm were all displayed by CTA and DSA. Eleven branches of 12 branches withstring of beads signwere diagnosed by CTA. Five branches of 6 branches withstring and pearl signwere diagnosed by CTA;CTA and DSA of 1 branch withdouble-lumen signwere all displayed. Six branches of 5 branch withlinear signwere diagnosed by CTA. One branch showedlinear sign, but was diagnosed thrombosis by CTA. Two branches were showedlinear sign, but were diagnosedstring of beads signandstring and pearl sign. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy of CT angiography in diagnosing VA dissection were 96.8%(31/32), 100%(28/28), 98.3%(59/60), respectively. The results made good agreement with DSA(Kappa=0.967,P<0.01). Conclusion Dual source CTA was a sensitive and accurate technique for the diagnosis of VAD.

Thirty-four cases out of 830 children with diarrhea were confirmed to be positive of fecal cryptosporidial oocysts with IFA technique and monoclonal antibodies in a period of 2 years. These 34 cases could be diagnosed as cryptosporidial enteritis. Their age ranged from 4 months to 7. 6 years with an average of 2. 5?1. 7 years. The stool was frothy and watery in appearance. High incidence occurred form June to September. Determination of PHA skin test, LBT and serum Ig was performed on 27 patients before, during and after the treatment of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge and Sophora flavescens Ait ( 2 traditional Chinese herb medicines). It was found that diarrhea lasted 10. 9?7. 1 days and oocyst shedding lasted 21. 5? 12. 3 days. Before treatment) PHA skin test showed an erythema of 7. 9?2. 4 mm in diameter, and LBT value was 48. 7%?10. 1% and they returned to normal after treatment.It is suggested that hot safrain-methylene blue stain and modified acid-fast stain of the stool be performed in those children with diarrhea of unknown etiology as a routine screening for cryptosporidial oocysts. The 2 Chinese herb medicines may have a repelling effect on the parasites and be. helpful to the cell immunity of the patients. Asymptomatic carriers of cry-tosporidial oocysts may be the source of infection.
