非甲—戊型病毒性肝炎患者血清庚型肝炎病毒感染的研究

采用ＥＬＩＳＡ法及逆转录—ＰＣＲ（简称ＲＴ—ＰＣＲ）法检测３６例非甲—戊型肝炎患者血清庚型肝炎病毒抗体（简称抗ＨＧＶ）和庚型肝炎病毒（简称ＨＧＶＲＮＡ）。结果：７例（１９．４％）抗ＨＧＶ阳性，２例（５．４％）同时ＨＧＶＲＮＡ阳性；急性肝炎抗ＨＧＶ阳性者临床表现与抗ＨＧＶ阴性者无显著差异，慢性肝炎抗ＨＧＶ阳性者较抗ＨＧＶ阴性者轻。提示：ＨＧＶ可引起急、慢性肝炎，在非甲—戊型肝炎中占有一定比例，但不是主要原因。     

鸟氨酸-天门冬氨酸联合乳果糖治疗肝性脑病疗效观察

病毒性肝炎60例临床与病理分析

对６０例病毒性肝炎患者进行肝穿刺活检，结果发现，临床与病理诊断的符合率为４６．６％，其中，急性肝炎的诊断符合率最低（２３．８％），慢性迁延型肝炎（慢迁肝）为４４．８％；ＨＢｓＡｇ阳性首次发病的患者中，急性乙型肝炎仅为１１．２％（２／１８）；临床诊断的慢性活动型肝炎（慢活肝）仅为病理检出的２５．７％（９／３５）；肝炎患者中脾肿大，凝血酶元时间延长、Ａ／Ｇ值＜１．２、抗ＨＢｃＩｇＭ阳性可作为慢活肝与慢迁肝鉴别的重要指标。这些对提高病毒性肝炎临床分型诊断的准确率及指导临床治疗有意义。     

血清前－S_2蛋白检测的临床意义

采用ＥＬＩＳＡ法检测１０４例各类型乙型肝炎（乙肝）患者的血清前－Ｓ２抗原（Ｐｒｅ－Ｓ２Ａｇ）及其抗体（Ｐｒｅ－Ｓ２Ａｂ），结果表明，Ｐｒｅ－Ｓ２Ａｇ的出现与ＨＢｓＡｇ、ＨＢｅＡｇ、ＨＢｃＡｂ呈显著相关性（Ｐ值均＜０．００５），主要见于乙肝急性期及慢性乙肝患者，说明病毒复制活跃、传染性强。而Ｐｒｅ－Ｓ２Ａｂ阳性仅见于急性乙肝恢复期。     

标本处理方法对多聚酶链反应的影响

对多聚酶链反应（ＰＣＲ）扩增条件相同情况下，５种标本处理方法ＨＢＶＤＮＡ检测结果进行了比较。结果证实，酶消化法、碱变性法和微波法ＨＢＶＤＮＡ检出率（均为７１．８８％，４６／６４）高于直接法和热变性法（均为６２．５％，４０／６４），而且酶消化法、碱变性法和微波法的敏感性明显高于直接法和热变性法。综合比较这５种ＰＣＲ方法，碱变性法和微波法不仅敏感性高、简便和快速，而且抗污染性强、结果稳定可靠，值得推广应用。

慢性乙型肝炎的中医药生态治疗优势

现代医学的生物、心理与社会医学模式特点之一是对以身心疾病为主的现代疾病的预防和治疗 ,更加注重人体的整体性、强调药物作用的多靶点性 ,即整体调节作用。运用中医学的整体观与辩证论治治疗慢性疾病。如肝病的生态治疗就是发挥绿色天然中药复方的多重综合、双向调节功能 ,调动人体的防御机能 ,强调药物作用的多靶点性及整体调节作用以清除病毒、调节免疫、增强抵抗力、恢复肝功能、防止肝炎的慢性纤维化     

乙型肝炎病毒基因组转染HepG2细胞的microRNA表达研究

目的 检测乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)全基因组转染对人肝母细胞瘤细胞系HepG2细胞中microRNA(miRNA)表达的影响,为进一步探讨肝细胞中HBV复制的分子生物学机制提供平台.方法 分别提取HepG2.2.15细胞(转染HBV全基因组的HepG2细胞,实验组)和其亲本HepG2细胞(对照组)的总RNA并分离miRNA,采用含509条探针的哺乳动物miRNA表达谱芯片对两组之间差异表达的miRNA进行分析.用SAM软件针对差异miRNA筛选的标准为在两组之间荧光强度差异4倍以上,差异miRNA的整体假阳性率为0.选择其中2个miRNA,应用实时荧光定量RT-PCR方法对芯片结果进行验证.结果 HepG2.2.15细胞与HepG2细胞间差异表达的miRNA共27个(占5.3%),其中7个表达上调,20个表达下调.miR-181d和miR-15a的实时荧光定量RT-PCR验证结果与芯片表达结果基本一致.结论 肝细胞中存在着与HBV复制相关的miRNA,这些上调和下调表达的miRNAs可能参与了HBV在肝细胞中的复制.     

Prevalence of hepatitis C virus antibody in an area endemic for hepatitis B virus and human T cell leukaemia virus

To clarify the prevalence of concurrent infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human T cell leukaemia virus (HTLV), we measured HCV antibody in the population of a district endemic for HBV and HTLV infection. Blood samples were collected in June 1990 from 579 inhabitants of four islands of Uwa Bay in the southwest of Ehime Prefecture in Japan. Anti-HCV antibody against C100-3 protein was detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (Ortho Diagnostics). Thirteen of the 579 inhabitants (2.2%) were positive for anti-HCV, and this prevalence rate was not significantly different from the frequency of anti-HCV in Tokyo blood donors. A total of 11% (64 of 579) of the subjects were positive for HBsAg and 3.3% (19 of 579) were positive for anti-HTLV. These frequencies of HBsAg and anti-HTLV positivity were distinctly higher than the respective means of Japanese. All anti-HCV positive individuals were negative for HBsAg and anti-HTLV, while 54% (7 of 13) had increased alanine aminotransferase levels. These data suggest that the prevalence of HCV infection is not high even in an area endemic for HBV and HTLV infection.     

Evaluation of the Crithidia assay to distinguish between auto-immune chronic active hepatitis and systemic lupus erythematosus

The aim of this study was to determine if the Crithidia luciliae assay for auto-antibodies to double-stranded DNA, often positive in systemic lupus erythematosus, is always negative in auto-immune chronic active hepatitis (CAH) as has recently been suggested. Twenty-five patients were identified as having auto-immune CAH. Mean duration of follow-up was 10.5 years. Antinuclear antibodies were detected in 92%, smooth muscle antibodies in 76% and antimitochondrial antibodies in 16%. Antibodies to double-stranded DNA were detected by the Crithidia assay in four patients (16%). Two of these patients had positive tests on only one occasion and no features of systemic lupus erythematosus. In the other two the assay was persistently positive. During follow-up both developed arthritis and serositis but the liver lesion remained the dominant clinical feature. It was concluded that there is significant serological overlap between auto-immune CAH and systemic lupus erythematosus making the Crithidia assay unreliable in distinguishing between them.
