Résumé
A fast, specific, sensitive, convenient, and economical rapid-dot-immunogold staining (R-Dot-IGS) assay was used to detect serum antibodies in patients infected with Schistosoma japonicum. The soluble egg antigen of Schistosoma japonicum was added onto microspore membrane. After pre-reacting and blocking, the serum to be detected and sheep anti-human IgG labeled with chloroauric acid were added sequentially. The assay took 15 minutes. For comparison, the dot-immunogold silver staining (Dot-IGSS) and rapid micro-volume Dot-IGSS (RM-Dot-IGSS) assay were also performed. The positive rate to detect the serum of schistosomiasis japonica by the R-Dot-IGS, Dot-IGSS and RM-Dot-IGSS assay was 98%, 98% and 100%, respectively. Samples from 50 healthy controls, 10 cases of clonorchiasis, and 10 cases of paragonimiasis showed negative reactions except for one case of clonorchiasis with RM-Dot-IGSS assay. Compared with Dot-IGSS and RM-Dot-IGSS, R-Dot-IGS assay has similar sensitivity and specificity, but the latter is quicker, simpler, and cheaper. Therefore, R-Dot-IGS is strongly recommended for rapid diagnosis of schistosomiasis japonica both in epidemiological study and in the clinic.

By using different blocking and diluting fluids, different developing time and different gold-labeled anti-immunoglobulin (GLA-Ig) which had been preserved in different conditions, the influence on the dot-immunogold-siiver staining (Dot-IGSS) for diagnosis of schis-tosomiasis japonica was studied. The results suggested that using suitable amount of sheep/ bovine serum albumin (BSA) as blocking fluid and calf serum as diluting fluid was a good choice, and 20℃ 20 min was the appropriate time for development. The GLA-Ig without Na3N3 could be preserved in - 20℃ for 2 years if it was not frozen and melted repeatedly.
Résumé
With human chromosomes,as antigen,anti—human—chromosome antibodies (AhChrA)were detected specifically from SLE patients sera by the methods of immunogold—silver staining(IGSS)and immnuofluorescenee tese (IFT)。To SLE,the sensitivity and specificity of serumAhChrA was 58.1%and98.5%respeetively in IGSS,34.9%and99.5%respectively in IFT。Boththe incidence and titer of AhChrA were found to be colsely related to the pathoactivity and thedamages of some important organs or tissues,such as kidney damage,abnormal immunity andhematocytopenia.A preliminary analysis of the antigen components reacting to AhChrA was alsoperformed。

Objective To investigate the effects of folic acid on apoptosis of neural cells after focal cerebral ischemia injury in rats and the mechanisms.Method Thirty two adult male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(SO),middle cerebral artery occlusion group(MCAO),MCAO+ low dose folic acid group(MCAO+FA-L) and MCAO+ high dose folic acid group(MCAO+FA-H).The model of middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) was set up by using intraluminal filament method.The rats were sacrificed at D7 day after cerebral ischemia.The apoptotic rate of neural cells was examined by TUNEL test,and the expression of pERK1/2 protein was detected by Western blotting method,The MDA content and serum SOD and GSH-Px activities in rats were measured before and 28d after folic acid treatment and 7th day after ischemia.Results Compared with ischemia group,the apoptotic rate of neural cells and MDA content in both folic acid supplemented groups were decreased significantly(P
