Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of PGE1 combined with PHGF in the treatment of patients with moderate or severe chronic hepatitis.Methods:110 patients with chronic hepatitis were randomly divided into two groups:60 in test group and 50 in control group.The patients of test group received the PGE1 combined with the PHGF for 30 days and the control group only received the most in using PGE1 for 30 days.Results:At the end of treatment,the total effective rates were 93.3% in the test group and 80% in control group.No severe side effect was observed in both groups.Conclusion:The PGE1 in conjunction with the PHGF is an effective and safe therapeutic intervention for patients with moderate or severe chronic hepatitis.

Objective:To Study the efficacy and satety of lamivudine in the treatment of CHB and HBV carrier.　Methods:All patients were divided into three groups. 21 patients with CHB were classified CHB test group(namely groupⅠ), 16 HBV carries were classified ASC test group(namely Group Ⅱ), 40 patients with CHB were CHB controlled group(namely controlled group). Both group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ received lamivudine, group Ⅰ was added protecting liver therapy. The controlled group only received protecting liver therapy. The treatment courses of three groups were one year. 　Results:The effective rates of group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ were higher than the controlled group in turning into negative HBeAg and HBV-DNA, both the negative-turning rate of liver functions and hepatic serology target declining fibrosis in group Ⅰ was more significant than the controlled group without severe side effect. 　Conclusion:Lamivudin is efficient and safe medicine in the treatment of CHB and HBV carrier.

Homeostasis between the host and viruses is naturally maintained.On the one hand,the immune system activates the immune re-sponse to kill or eliminate viruses;on the other hand,the immune system controls the immune response to maintain immune homeostasis. The cause of persistent infections with hepatitis viruses such as HBV and HCV is that viral molecules damage the immune system of the host and their variants escape immune clearance.Long-term coexistence of the host and viruses is the process involving various immune cells and molecules and is the result of homeostasis maintenance in antiviral immune response.The immune homeostasis maintained during persis-tent infections with hepatitis viruses is analyzed by the cellular and molecular mechanisms.

Objective To study the effect of climate change on physiological indexes of elderly people.Methods From January,2006 to January,2007,30 elderly couples were selected and blood pressure,pulse,body weight were investigated.The weather data was collected.Results The lowest value of body weight appeared in February in normotensive subjects,in September in hypertension subjects.The lowest value of body temperature in two groups appeared in February and March.The lowest value of pulse appeared in March and April in normotensive subjects,in September in hypertension subjects.The curve of blood pressure change(SBP and DBP) presented"V"in two groups.The lowest value appeared in summer(July-September).The highest value appeared in winter(December-February).The blood pressure in winter was higher than that in summer(P

Objective To study the inhibition of HCV IRES mediated HCV core protein expression in cells by inhibitor RNA. Methods Plasmid pcRz-IRNA, a eukaryotic expression vector with IRNA and two self cleavage ribozyme overhang at both sides respectively, was constructed and co-transfected with pcHCVcluc (containing HCV NCR, core and Luc genome) into the HHCC cell line (Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma cell line). Immunoflurescence tests were applied to detect the co-transfected cells, which were thereafter analysed with confocal microscope quantitatively. Luciferase activity was valued using Luc Assay System (Promega). Results The cotransfected cells expressed HCV core protein, and the fluorecein in which was reduced significantly in comparison with control. Conclusions IRNA can inhibit the expression of HCV IRES mediated core protein in the cotransfected cells.

Aim To investigate the Clotrimazoles (CLT) inhibitive effect on the secretion of ?-defensins of the Paneth cells.Methods The ?-defensin mRNA expression is determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The secretion of defensins is determined by dot-blot and ELISA. Results CLT has no influence on the defensin mRNA expression. All of 125 nmol?L -1, 250 nmol?L -1 and 500 nmol?L -1 CLT can inhibit the secretion of ?-defensins. Conclusion CLT could inhibit the secretion of defensins, which suggests that CLT maybe influence the function of small intestine

Objective To investigate the effects of constant magnetic field on secretion and expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ). Methods The fourth to sixth passages of in vitro cultured VSMCs from human umbilical artery were used. The cells were divided into six groups, i.e. control group, AngⅡ (1?10 -6mol/L) group, Ang Ⅱ with exposure to 1, 5, 10 or 50 Gs of constant magnetic field groups. Samples were collected 12 hours after intervention. The secretion of VCAM-1 was assayed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the expression of VCAM-1 was assessed by immunocytochemistry. Results The secretion of VCAM-1 was increased significantly 12 hours after intervention with AngⅡ of 10 -6mol/L (P

Objective To detect the expression of RXR? gene protein in gastric cancer, superficial gastritis, normal gastric mucosa, in order to explore the relationship between the development of gastric cancer, combined with clinical and pathological analysis of its clinical significance. Methods Using immunohistochemical detection RXR? protein in gastric cancer, superficial gastritis, gastric mucosa in the normal expression. Results RXR? protein mainly located in the nucleus of cells, there are a small number of cytoplasmic staining, a brown or yellow granular, in gastric cancer, superficial gastritis, normal gastric mucosa, RXR? protein expression rates were 25.0%, 81.1%, 96.1%; group and the normal mucosa and superficial gastritis, gastric cancer group RXR? expression rate has dropped, there were significant differences (P0.05). The lymph node metastasis and tumor pathology and clinical phases closely related (P

Objective To construct the endothelial cell model with overexpressed human protein kinase C ?2(PKC?2) after high glucose inducement in order to study the function of human PKC?2. Methods The PRKCB1 gene was amplified from pMD18-T-PRKCB1 plasmid and then directly cloned into shuttle plasmid pDC315 to construct shuttle plasmid. Then the recombinant shuttle plasmid and adenovirus genomic plasmid pBHGlox△E1,3Cre were cotransfected into 293 cells to construct recombinant adenovirus Ad-PRKCB1. The virus titer was calculated by TCID50. The Ad-PRKCB1 was verified by immunocytochemistry and RT-PCR. Ad-PRKCB1 was transfected into human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) followed by the treatment of high glucose (25 mmol/L) for 96 h, and then the cells were observed by laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). Results Restrictive endonuclease digestion and PCR result showed that the target gene was correctly cloned into shuttle plasmid. Cytopathic effect (CPE) was observed under inverted microscope through homologous recombination. The virus titer was 7.9?109 IU/ml. Immunocytochemical staining and RT-PCR indicated the expression of human PKC?2 in the transfected HUVECs. The translocation was observed under LSCM. Conclusion A recombinant adenovirus vector with human PKC?2 and the endothelial cell model with human PKC?2 overexpression by high glucose are constructed successfully.
