Bridged ELISA method was used to measure the expression of AB antigen in sonicate and culture supematant. According to the method described by Meacock, stability of the recombinant was evaluated. Semi-lethal capacity test was used to evaluate the safety of recombinant. The immunogenicity of recombinant was evaluated with animal experiments.RESULTS: The attenuated S. typhimurium X4072 (pYA248-AB) which expresses AB was successfully constructed.Furthermore, bridged ELISA assay showed that the content of AB in recombinant X4072 (pYA248- AB) culture supematant was higher than that was in thallus lytic liquor. And after recombinant X4072 (pYA248- AB) was cultured for 100 generations without selection pressure, bhe entire recombinant bacteria selected randomly could grow, and the AB antigen was defected positive by ELISA. The growth curve of the recombinant bacteria showed that the growth states of X4072 (pYA248) and X4072 (pYA248-AB) were basically consistent. The survival rate of C57BL/6 was still 100%, at 30 d after mice taking X4072 (pYA248-AB) 1.0×l0^10 cfu orally. Oral immunization of mice with X4072 (pYA248-AB) induced a specific immune response.CONCLUSION: In vitro recombinant plasmid appears to be stable and experiments on animals showed that the recombinant strains were safe and immunogenic in vitro,which providing a new live oral vaccine candidate for protection and care of H pylori infection.展开更多

Most published reports have included only patients undergoing diverticulectomy or bowel resection through laparotomy. We report a case of a carcinoid tumor in a Meckel’s diverticulum which was incidentally detected and removed during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Although there is no compelling evidence in the literature to recommend prophylactic diverticulectomy, laparoscopic stapled resection repre-sents a viable and safe approach in healthy individuals undergoing elective surgery for other purposes.展开更多
