ObjectiveTo summarize the results of testing and analysis of antigen and antibody for diseases under the frame of children's immunization program, in order to know the effects of prevention and control of such diseases in this area. MethodsA total of 150 children from each of the 5 communities or administrative villages in Yongning District of Nanning City were selected for our survey between January and December 2012. The 150 children were composed of 30 children (residents, 1-6 years old, 5 children from each different age group) randomly selected from each of the four directions (east, south, west and north) and the mid-area of each community or village. The serum samples were collected to analyze the existence of poliomyelitis antibody, measles antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), and diphtheria antibody. ResultsAmong the 150 school-age children, antibody immune qualified rate was high for hepatitis B (HBV) antigen, in which the HBsAg immune qualified rate was 99.3%, and HBsAb immune qualified rate was 88.0%, showing no significant difference between boys and girls (P>0.05). All poliomyelitis Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ antibody positive rates reached 100.0%. Measles antibody test results were also satisfying for each age group, among whom the 2 and 3 year-olds reached a positive rate of the highest, 100%, and the 1, 4, 5, and 6 year-old children had a measles antibody positive rate of 96.0%, 84.0%, 88.0%, and 96.0%, respectively. The positive rate for diphtheria antibody was 100%. ConclusionThe antibody and antigen detection and analysis results for the children's immune program targeted diseases are generally satisfying in this area. Especially, the prevention of poliomyelitis and diphtheria is the best. However, prevention of HBV and measles is not as good. Therefore, tracking immunization coverage, promoting public awareness on immune planning, actively participating in the vaccination of children should be enhanced for further disease prevention.
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of ELISA using AgB in cystic echinococcosis (CE). Methods Such databases as PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, EBSCO, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and MedaLink were retrieved on computer, and the relevant journals were also manually searched to collect the trials on ELISA using AgB in diagnosis of CE. The retrieval time was from inception to July 5th, 2012. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted the data and assessed the quality according to QUADAS. Then the meta-analysis was conducted by using Meta-Disc 1.4 software. Results A total of 8 studies were included, and there were 562 CE patients diagnosed by gold standard, 434 suspected cases and 303 healthy people. There were no threshold effects among those 8 studies (the spearman’s correlation coefficient of log sensitivity to log 1-specificity was 0.527, P=0.400 1). The meta-analysis of DerSimonia-Laird showed that, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio and diagnostic odds ratio was 0.76 (95%CI 0.73 to 0.79), 0.84 (95%CI 0.82 to 0.86), 5.20 (95%CI 3.59 to 7.55), 0.26 (95%CI 0.18 to 0.35), 23.93 (95%CI 12.35 to 46.39), respectively. And the AUC of SROC was 0.889 7 (Q=0.820 4). Conclusion ELISA using natural AgB and rAgB has greater diagnostic value in detecting CE.
OBJECTIVE: To study the allograft antigenicity of human ear cartilage and the effect of the cell extraction on antigenicity. METHODS: The human ear cartilage was acellular by cell extraction with Triton X-100. Then the cartilage and the acellular cartilage were analyzed by anti-MHC-I immunohistochemical staining, the reaction of the peripheral blood mononuclear(PBM) cells to the cartilage and the acellular cartilage and the migration of the PBM cells toward the cartilage and the acellular cartilage. RESULTS: The result of human ear cartilage was positive for the anti-MHC-I immunohistochemical staining, whereas that of the acellular cartilage was negative for the staining. The reactive proliferation of the PBM cells was more when they were co-cultured with human ear cartilage than that when they were cultured alone in vitro(P lt; 0.05), but the acellular cartilage did not show the same phenomena (P gt; 0.05); when the cartilage and the acellular cartilage were co-cultured with the PBM cells, the PBM cells migrated to the cartilage much more than that to acellular cartilage(P lt; 0.01). CONCLUSION: Human ear cartilage has allograft antigenicity and its antigenicity can be removed by cell extraction with Triton X-100.

ObjectivesTo systematically review the risk factors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with hepatic B surface antigen (HBsAg).MethodsScopus, EMbase, PubMed, and The Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched for relevant studies on HCC after HBsAg seroclearance from inception to October 31st, 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted the data, and evaluated the risk of bias in the included studies. Meta-analysis was then conducted using R 3.5.3 software.ResultsA total of 28 studies involving 105 411 patients were included. Among 105 411 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 7 656 patients occurred spontaneously HBsAg seroclearance, while 1 248 patients had HBsAg seroclearance after interferon or nucleoside analogue therapy. The rate of HBsAg seroclearance was 6.77%. Meta-analysis showed that risk factors for HCC after serum HBsAg conversion included cirrhosis (OR=6.43, 95%CI 3.56 to 11.60, P<0.001), male (OR=2.72, 95%CI 1.66 to 4.46,P<0.001), and age ≥50 years at HBsAg seroclearance (OR=3.71, 95%CI 2.17 to 6.35,P<0.001).ConclusionsPatients with CHB after HBsAg seroclearance are still at risk of developing HCC. Therefore, periodic surveillance is recommended, especially for male patients, patients with cirrhosis, and patients who experience HBsAg seroclearance when over 50.

The target protein band of the antigen was separated in light of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gelelectrophoresis. Results A special unmixed band of SO-Rb50 cells antigen was separated with the relative molecular weight of 83×103.Conclusion The antigen corresponding to the monoclonal antibody of anti-retinoblastoma could be separated from SO-Rb50cells.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2003，19：152-155)
The expression of T antigen in rectal cancer and mucosa remote from carcinoma by immunohistochemistry was investigated. Mucin protein was also examined by HID-AB staining. The results showed that the expression of T antigen in rectal cancer was much ber than those in 10cm mucosa remote from carcinoma and no significant difference as compared with 5cm mucosa. The sialomucin reactions in 5cm and 10cm mucosa remote from carcinoma were 45% and 20% respectively. The coincident sialomucin positive reaction and expression of T antigen were found in 40% 5cm remote mucosa .There is significant correlation between them (Ｐ＜0.05). The authors conclude that the expression of tumorrelated antigen and change of mucin protein in remote mucosa without malignant invasion may suggest the malignant potential of the mucosa. Further investigations should be performed into the effect of these changes on the local recurrence after redical resection of rectal cancer.
Objective To observe the expression of sperm protein (SP) 32/OY-TES-1 in retinoblastoma (RB).Methods Thirty paraffin specimens of pathologically confirmed RB eyeballs were investigated in this study. The SP32/OY-TES-1 mRNA expression of 15 RB tissues, 12 non-tumor retinal tissues and 22 normal eye tissues were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The SP32/OY-TES-1 protein expression of 30 RB tissues and 24 normal retinal tissues were examined by immunohistochemistry. The relationship between SP32/OY-TES-1 mRNA, protein expression and age, gender, tumor size, tumor differentiation, clinical stage of RB children were analyzed. Results The expression rate of SP32/OY-TES-1 mRNA in RB tissues, non-tumor retinal tissues and normal eye tissues were 86.7%, 16.7% and 36.4% respectively. Compared the expression rate of SP32/OY-TES-1 mRNA in different gender (chi;2=0.744)，age（chi;2=1.178），clinical stage(chi;2=1.188)，tumor size (chi;2=0.216)，tumor differentiation(chi;2=1.885)，the differences were not statistically significant (P＞0.05). The expression rate of SP32/OY-TES-1 protein in RB tissues was 73.3% and no expression in normal retinal tissues. Compared the expression rate of SP32/OY-TE-1 protein in different gender (chi;2=1.000)，agewith le;two years and ＞two years（chi;2=0.403），tumor size (chi;2=2.274)，tumor differentiation(chi;2=0.138), the differences were not statistically significant (P＞0.05); but in clinical stage (chi;2=6.193)，with or without optic nerve infiltration (chi;2=4.535), the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05). Conclusions SP32/OY-TES-1 is highly expressed in RB. The expression rate of SP32/OY-TES-1 is related to optic nerve infiltration and clinical stage of RB.
ObjectiveTo observe the expression of CD147, matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in a rat model of oxygen induced retinopathy (OIR). MethodsEighty-four neonatal Wistar rats were divided into two groups randomly, the hyperoxia group (n=42) and the control group (n=42). Oxygen induced retinopathy was established in the hyperoxia group, the control group was raised in room air. Wholemonts were prepared from postnatal day (p) 7 and 14 rat retina to observe retinal vascular morphology. The number of endothelial cells to break through the internal limiting membrane was counted from p14 retinal paraffin sections. Expression of CD147, MMP-2 and VEGF protein levels was analyzed by immunohistochemistry on p12, p14, and p16 retinal sections. At the meantime, correlation between CD147 and MMP-2, VEGF was analyzed by two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test. ResultsAt p7, the retinal vasculature of the control group was radial distributed with large caliber. In OIR group, there were vasoconstriction, large area of avascular zone and a few small areas of vascular network. At p14, the normal untreated rat had interwoven retinal vasculature, but in OIR group, the retinal vasculature was expanded and tortuous, and forming lots of neovascular cluster in the boundary of the perfusion and non-perfusion regions resulting exudation and hemorrhage. At p14, the endothelial cell nuclei breakthrough the internal limiting membrane was (1.30±1.26) and (19.70±3.56) respectively in control and OIR group, the difference was statistically significant (t=21.813, P<0.01). Immunohistochemical staining showed that CD147, MMP-2, VEGF expression was low in control group but high in OIR group. From p12 to p16, CD147, MMP-2 and VEGF protein expression increased in OIR retinas compared with control samples(p12:t=5.612, 4.122, 4.955; P<0.01. p14:t=11.390, 8.047, 12.176; P<0.01. p16:t=6.355, 4.422, 5.110; P<0.01). ConclusionCD147, MMP-2 and VEGF were highly expressed in the rat model of oxygen induced retinopathy.
Objective To investigate the effects of gamma;-interferon (IFN-gamma; on the expression of costimulatory molecules B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) and Fas/FasL in human retina. Methods Nine human eyes were obtained from the eye-bank of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. Six eyes were used for making retinal wholemounts, and 12 retinal wholemounts from each eye were put into the 24-hole culture board which had 2ml DMEM/F12 culture medium in each hole. The wholemounts were divided into 3 groups whose concentration of IFN-gamma; was 0, 200, and 1000 U/ml respectively. After cultured in 37℃ culture box (95%O 2，5%CO 2) for 24 hours, the expressions of B7-1 (CD80), B7-2 (CD86), and Fas/FasL on these retinal wholemounts were detected by immunohistochemical method. The retinal wholemounts from 3 healthy people were detected by immunohistochemical method as the control. Results Expression of FasL but not B7-1, B7-2 or Fas was found in the control group, while the expression of B7-1, B7-2 and Fas and increased expression of FasL were found after cultured with IFN-gamma;. Conclusion IFN-gamma; may be involved in the occurrence of ocular immune response and induction of apoptosis via the stimulation of expression of costimulatory molecules and Fas/FasL, which plays an important role in the activation of T lymphocytes.
