In this study, we explored the role of SOCS3 in the development of mouse hepatitis virus strain 3 （MHV-3）-induced acute liver failure and its expression in liver and peripheral blood mononuclear cells （PBMCs） of patients with HBV-ACLF. Inflammation-related gene expression was detected by real-time PCR, immtmohistochemistry and Western blotting. The correlation between SOCS3 level and liver injury was studied. Our results showed that the SOCS3 expression was significantly elevated in both the liver tissue and PBMCs from patients with HBV-ACLF compared to mild chronic hepatitis B （CHB）. Moreover, a time course study showed that SOCS3 level was increased remarkably in the liver of BALB/cJ mice at 72 h post-infection. Pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin （IL）-1 β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α, were also increased significantly at 72 h post-infection. There was a close correlation between hepatic SOCS3 level and IL-6, and the severity of liver injury defined by alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） levels, respectively. These data suggested that SOCS3 may play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of MHV-3-induced acute liver failure and HBV-ACLF.展开更多

Methods Isolate the blastula o f 3.5 d from BALB/c species mouse. Culture the cells from inner cell mass （inner cell mass, ICM） which were isolated by mechanical method on the mouse embryonic fibroblaste cell （MEF） feeder layer or 0.1% gelatin coated dishes. The stem ceils were identified by characterized morphology, alkaline phosphatase stain, differential potency in vivo and immunoehemistry stain. The isolated cells were differentiated by serial induction method that mimicking the intrinsic developmental process of the neural system. Results The isolated cells were positive for alkaline phosphatatse and SSEA-1 （ stage specific embryonic antigen 1 ）. Moreover they were identified pluripotent by differentiation in vivo. Therefore the isolated ceils presented the characters of ESCs. Then the isolated cells were able to differentiate into neuroeytes in vitro. Conclusion Mouse embryonic stem ceils isolation, culture and differentiation system has been established.展开更多
