Two-dimensional electrophoresis analysis of human serum proteins during the acute-phase response.

The serum of patients with meningitis, due to infection by Haemophilus influenzae type b, was analyzed. Several known acute-phase proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis and estimated quantitatively. In addition, hitherto undescribed reactants were recognized. Gels were calibrated and relevant spots related to master spot numbers in the human serum protein database.

Intrafamilial hepatitis A outbreak: projection on the community in an area of Tuscany.

In 1988, 3 intrafamilial cases of hepatitis A occurred in a little town in the nearby of Siena: shellfishes were probably responsible for the index case, close contacts for the two secondary cases, characterized by a very long incubation period (above 60 days). An inapparent infection was detected in one household contact. No other cases of hepatitis A have been observed in that area since the intrafamilial outbreak until now. A seroepidemiological survey was carried out in a group of persons living in the same area, and attending the same school or class-room of one of the secondary intrafamilial cases. 210 sera belonging to 105 teenagers were available; an IgG anti A test was performed on a double serum sample (before and after the outbreak): no seroconversion was observed. Our report underlines the hypoendemicity of hepatitis A infection in our country.
