ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the status of reproductive health of women at the reproductive age.Method A self-designed questionnaire was used among 960 married women at the reproductive age to investigate the health status.Results The women(59.8%)had an abnormal pregnant history.The reproductive diseases in them were mainly cervicitis(11.6%),pelvic inflammatory disease(5.4%)and uterine fibroids(4.0%).Thirty-one point one perent of them knew well about their fertile time, 58.6%of them wanted most to know the choice of contraception,and 30.0%obtained the knowledge on female reproductive health knowledge from the hospitals.Conclusion Such measures as doing health education in various ways,strengthening the reproductive health knowledge and enhancing the knowledge of contraception are important for the improvement of the reproductive health knowledge.
ABSTRACT
In this study,we constructed 2 eukaryotic expressing plasmids namely pcS2?S and pFP,encoding HBV preS2+S envelope protein and human IL 2/IFN ? fusion protein, respectively. The double plasmid fusion protein was used as an adjuvant in preparation of a treatment type HBV gene vaccine. To investigate its feasibility for use as a therapeutic DNA vaccine, we've evaluated the immune response after injection into healthy mice, HBV transgenic(Tg) mice, New Zealand rabbits and Rhesus monkeys. The results showed that the therapeutic DNA vaccine can improve: (1)the CTL activity; (2)the HBsAg(30?g/ml) specific T lymphocyte proliferation in which the stimulation index(SI) and cytokines(IL 2/IFN r) release levels of the pS2.S immunized group(SI=5.6?0.9; 226.3?41.1/51.1?7.1pg/ml) were significantly higher( P
ABSTRACT
The peptides from HBV cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL) epitope were used to either stimulate or impact the immune effector (E) or CTL target (T) cells respectively, in order to investigate the cellular immune response induced by DNA vaccination in both healthy and HBV transgenic (Tg) mice. It was found that HBV DNA based immunization could induce CTL activity in healthy BALB/c mice, with intensity correlated with the E/T ratio and IFN ? secretion level in its supernatants. The target cells hit by HBsAg CTL epitope peptide(pp20) could be lysed by the active CTL induced by HBV DNA vaccine encoding preS2 and HBsAg, while the cell lysis could not be observed in the target cells impacted by the HBcAg CTL epitope peptide (pp10). The supernatant IL 12 secretion level (211 3?39 8pg?ml -1 ) in the DNA vaccination group was significantly( P
