Additive Antinociception between Intrathecal Sildenafil and Morphine in the Rat Formalin Test

The possible characteristics of spinal interaction between sildenafil (phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor) and morphine on formalin-induced nociception in rats was examined. Then the role of the opioid receptor in the effect of sildenafil was further investigated. Catheters were inserted into the intrathecal space of male Sprague-Dawley rats. For induction of pain, 50 µL of 5% formalin solution was applied to the hind-paw. Isobolographic analysis was used for the evaluation of drug interaction between sildenafil and morphine. Furthermore, naloxone was intrathecally given to verify the involvement of the opioid receptor in the antinociception of sildenafil. Both sildenafil and morphine produced an antinociceptive effect during phase 1 and phase 2 in the formalin test. The isobolographic analysis revealed an additive interaction after intrathecal delivery of the sildenafil-morphine mixture in both phases. Intrathecal naloxone reversed the antinociception of sildenafil in both phases. These results suggest that sildenafil, morphine, and the mixture of the two drugs are effective against acute pain and facilitated pain state at the spinal level. Thus, the spinal combination of sildenafil with morphine may be useful in the management of the same state. Furthermore, the opioid receptor is contributable to the antinocieptive mechanism of sildenafil at the spinal level.     

Hematological reference intervals in argentine lizard <Emphasis Type="Italic">Tupinambis merianae</Emphasis> (Sauria—Teiidae)

In order to establish referential hematological parameters, blood samples were taken from 100 healthy specimens of the Argentine tegu lizard (Tupinambis merianae) by means of venipuncture of ventral coccigeal vein. The determination of red blood cells, leukocyte and thrombocyte count, hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, hematometric index and differential leukocyte count were performed, and compared with other saurian species. No statistically significant changes were observed as function as sex and age (p > 0.01). During winter, high values of red blood cell counts, hematocrit and hemoglobin were observed (p < 0.01), while in summer significantly increased leukocyte and thrombocyte counts were observed (p < 0.01). The differential leukocyte counts were not affected by the studied factors.     

Association of KIR Genotypes and Haplotypes with Susceptibility to Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Chinese Han Population

Killer immunoglobulin-like receptor （KIR） genes can regulate the activation of NK and T cells upon interaction with HLA class I molecules. Hepatitis B virus （HBV） infection has been regarded as a multi-factorial disorder disease. Previous studies revealed that KIRs were involved in HCV and HIV infection or clearance. The aim of this study was to explore the possibility of the inheritance of KIR genotypes and haplotypes as a candidate for susceptibility to persistent HBV infection or HBV clearance. The sequence specific primer polymerase chain reaction （SSP-PCR） was employed to identify the KIR genes and pseudogenes in 150 chronic hepatitis B （CHB） patients, 251 spontaneously recovered （SR） controls, and 412 healthy controls. The frequencies of genotype G7 M, FZ1 increased in CHB patients compared with healthy control subjects. The frequency of genotype AH was higher in SR controls than that in both CHB patients and healthy controls. The carriage frequencies of genotype G and AH were higher; while, the frequencies of AF and AJ were lower in SR controls than those in healthy control subjects. The frequency of A haplotype was lower, whereas, the frequency of B haplotype was higher in CHB patients and SR controls than those in healthy controls. In healthy controls, haplotype 4 was found lower compared with that in CHB patients and SR controls and the frequency of haplotype 5 was higher in SR controls than that in other two groups. Based on these findings, it seems that the genotypes M and FZ1 are HBV susceptive genotypes; AH, on the other hand, may be protective genotypes that facilitate the clearance of HBV. It appears that the haplotype 4 is HBV susceptive haplotype, whereas, haplotype 5 may be the protective haplotype that facilitates the clearance of HBV.

目的 比较相同发育阶段中枢神经系统不同部位来源的神经干细胞在体外的生长特性。方法 胚胎小鼠(E14)于无菌条件下分别分离并收集皮层、纹状体、间脑、中．后脑和脊髓，各部分制备成单细胞悬液，接种在添加有纤维细胞生长因子(FGF)的无血清培养液内，神经干细胞克隆生成后，经免疫细胞化学方法鉴定细胞特性，并在相同条件下进行传代，相差显微镜下观察克隆生成和细胞的迁移特性。结果 在添加有纤维细胞生长因子的无血清培养液中，少量接种的单个细胞会增殖并形成悬浮于细胞培养液中的细胞克隆。这些克隆具有生成新克隆并分化成神经元和胶质细胞的能力。在相同发育阶段，皮层、纹状体、间脑均可生成悬浮的克隆，其中皮层生成的速度最快，纹状体、间脑较慢，中．后脑、脊髓生成克隆的速度最慢；生成克隆后，皮层克隆的贴壁能力最差，贴壁的克隆少有细胞从其底部迁出，纹状体、间脑克隆较易贴壁，贴壁克隆底部有明显的细胞迁出，中．后脑、脊髓生成的克隆不易悬浮，很快贴壁，在贴壁克隆的底部有大量的细胞迁出。结论 在无血清培养液中，神经干细胞可在体外增殖、传代并分化生成神经元和胶质细胞，不同部位来源的神经干细胞在体外生成克隆的速度和细胞迁移性不同，这可能同体内特定部位细胞的发育特性有关。     

A locus for spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome at chromosome 3p14

Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterised by vertebral fusions, frequently manifesting as an unsegmented vertebral bar, as well as fusions of the carpal and tarsal bones.

In a study of three consanguineous families and one non-consanguineous family, linkage analysis was used to establish the chromosomal location of the disease gene. Linkage analysis localised the disease gene to chromosome 3p14. A maximum lod score of 6.49 (q = 0) was obtained for the marker at locus D3S3532 on chromosome 3p. Recombination mapping narrowed the linked region to the 5.7 cM genetic interval between the markers at loci D3S3724 and D3S1300. A common region of homozygosity was found between the markers at loci D3S3724 and D3S1300, defining a physical interval of approximately 4 million base pairs likely to contain the disease gene.

Identification of the gene responsible for this disorder will provide insight into the genes that play a role in the formation of the vertebral column and joints.

Acceleration of bone formation with BMP2 in frame-reinforced carbonate apatite–collagen sponge scaffolds

The development is expected of scaffold biomaterials that feature a shape-maintaining property in addition to high porosity and large pores that cells can easily invade. To develop a new biodegradable scaffold biomaterial reinforced with a frame, synthesized carbonate apatite (CO₃Ap) was mixed with neutralized collagen gel, and the CO₃Ap–collagen mixtures were lyophilized into sponges in a porous hydroxyapatite (HAp) frame ring. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analyses together with chemical analysis indicated that the synthesized CO₃Ap had a crystalline nature and a chemical composition similar to that of bone. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation showed that the CO₃Ap–collagen sponge had a sui pore size for cell invasion. In proliferation and differentiation experiments with osteoblasts, alkaline phosphatase and osteopontin activity were clearly detected. When these sponge–frame complexes with bone morphogenic protein (rh-BMP2) were implanted beneath the periosteum cranii of rats, significant new bone was created at the surface of the periosteum cranii after 4 weeks of implantation. These reinforced CO₃Ap–collagen sponges with rh-BMP2 are expected to be used as hard tissue scaffold biomaterials for the therapeutic purpose of the rapid cure of bone defects.
