The differential effect of optic nerve disease on pattern and focal electroretinograms

We studied nine cases of retrobulbar neuritis with confirmed multiple sclerosis and six cases of optic atrophy from other causes. Pattern and focal electroretinograms (macular ERGs) were recorded with high (400 cd/m²) and low (40 cd/m²) intensity stimuli. Contrast sensitivity was also measured with a simple printed test.Luminance was not markedly important. High spatial frequency contrast sensitivity was significantly correlated with pattern ERG amplitude. Pattern and focal ERG amplitude ratio was usually reduced, but the effect was not correlated with contrast sensitivity or large enough to be useful clinically.In optic atrophy the pattern ERG (PERG) was clearly more severely reduced than the focal ERG (FERG). In retrobulbar neuritis both ERGs were equally and more severely reduced even though the visual losses were less. In unilateral cases the PERG increased then decreased after the initial attack, as previously described (Arden et al., 1982). The results suggest that retinal layers beyond the ganglion cells may be affected in retrobulbar neuritis, but proximally generated, pattern-specific ERG components are selectively lost in optic atrophy.     

A small angle light scattering device for planar connective tissue microstructural analysis

The planar fibrous connective tissues of the body are composed of a dense extracellular network of collagen and elastin fibers embedded in a ground matrix, and thus can be thought of as biocomposites. Thus, the quantification of fiber architecture is an important step in developing an understanding of the mechanics of planar tissues in health and disease. We have used small angle light scattering (SALS) to map the gross fiber orientation of several soft membrane connective tissues. However, the device and analysis methods used in these studies required extensive manual intervention and were unsuitable for largescale fiber architectural mapping studies. We have developed an improved SALS device that allows for rapid data acquisition, automated high spatial resolution specimen positioning, and new analysis methods suitable for large-scale mapping studies. Extensive validation experiments revealed that the SALS device can accurately measure fiber orientation for up to a tissue thickness of at least 500 μm to an angular resolution of∼1^o and a spatial resolution of±254 μm. To demonstrate the new device’s capabilities, structural measurements from porcine aortic valve leaflets are presented. Results indicate that the new SALS device provides an accurate method for rapid quantification of the gross fiber structure of planar connective tissues.     

IMMUNOLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS OF LIGHT CHAIN DISEASE ANALYSIS OF 11 CASES FOUND IN FUJIAN PROVINCE

The present paper reports 11 cases of light chain disease (LCD) sequently found in several citles over Fujian province, Immunological classification of this group of LCD ww as follows: six of me cases belonged to type λ, four of them were type κ, and another one was a double LCD. We found that LCD was common in Fujlan only next to multiple myeloma (MM) of IgG class and accounted for 20% of the total 55 MM cases found in recent yean.It to well known that In matt patients of LCD M protein or Bence Jones proteinemia (BJPemia) to not detectable by conventional electro-phoresis. Our studies show that by making serum protein along with urinary BJP electrophoresis on the same one gel plate the sltuation can be greatly Improved It not only favour* the recognition of smail and faint band or bands of free light chain in serum, but also provides a repid and sensitive way, i. e. , immunofixation, to directly detect urinary light chain on the gel plate Immediately after electrophresis has been run.     

Various V-J rearrangement efficiencies shape the mouse λ B cell repertoire

The diversity of the B cell repertoire of C_x knockout mice is limited by the expression of four λ light chain types. Among the spleen B cells, λ1 is expressed by the majority (58%) of cells, and λ3 by the minority (8%), while λ2(V2) and λ2(Vx) are expressed in intermediate quantities (18% and 16%, respectively). To assess the influence of mechanistic pressures on the λ subtype distribution, the proportions of the different λ rearrangements were determined in various B cell subpopulations divided on the basis of the λ subtype expressed, and the VλJλ junction sequences were studied at different steps of B cell differentiation (pre-B, immature and mature B cells). The data show that (1) the ratio of productive/non-productive VJ junctions is determined by the nature of the λ segments that are rearranged as can be observed in the pre-B cells, (2) V1-J1 non-productive rearrangements are often found in the λ1-negative B cells in the periphery, and (3) V1J3 junctions are often non-productive regardless of the nature of the cells analyzed. Our results, therefore, suggest that a strong probability of initiating a V1-J1 rearrangement and a weak probability of giving a productive V1J3 junction are responsible for the λ1 dominance and the λ3 under-expression, respectively. The intermediate proportion of λ2(V2) subtype is most likely due to a probability of obtaining a productive joint that is better than that for V1J3 and a probability of initiating a rearrangement that is lower than that for V1J1. However, the λ2(Vx) cell proportion cannot be determined only by these parameters.     

不同强度运动对女子游泳运动员性激素水平的影响及特点

本研究以放兔分析法观察不同强度运动前后19名女子游泳运动员血清促卵泡激素(FSH)、黄体生成素(LH)、雌二醇(E_2)、孕酮(P)、睾酮(T)及胰岛素(Ins)的变化。受试者在卵泡及黄体两期分别进行短时间高强度间歇运动——6×50m全速力竭性游泳和长时间持续运动——1000m全速力竭性游泳。在运动前5分钟及运动后即刻分别采集静脉血测定各种激素含量。主要结果如下:受试者从事6×50m最大速度间歇游泳后,卵泡期各种激素浓度的变化均显著高于运动前安静状态,黄体期变化不一,FSH、LH降低,E_2、P、T及Ins升高。从事1000m全速游泳后,激素变化表现为卵泡期FSH、LH、E_2、P均升高,T及Ins降低;黄体期E_2、P、T升高,Ins降低,FSH、LH无显著变化,两期相比黄体期运动成绩优于卵泡期。上述结果提示:①受试者月经周期的黄体期机体有氧能力强于卵泡期,运动能力的增强与黄体期E_2、P、T水平升高有关。②FSH、LH与E_2、P分泌变化并非同步一致,说明运动中E_2升高并非受制于促性腺激素,而主要是卵巢分泌量升高所致。③运动中E_2、P、T具有协同效应,可抵抗疲劳,提高人体运动能力。     

Occlusion and subsequent re-canalization in early duodenal development of human embryos: integrated organogenesis and histogenesis through a possible epithelial-mesenchymal interaction

Histogenesis of the duodenum, especially changes in the epithelium in relation to temporal occlusion and re-canalization of the lumen, was investigated by light microscopy together with morphometric analysis, as well as by scanning and transmission electron microscopy of 133 externally normal human embryos ranging from Carnegie stage 12 to 23. A series of morphogenetic events passed the duodenum in a cranio-caudal (proximo-distal) wave like fashion during the period examined. They included: (1) a decrease in the caliber and area of the lumen, (2) ’occlusion’ of the lumen, (3) vacuole formation, (4) ’re-canalization’ and villi formation. The only exemption to this rule was that, in the upper part of the duodenum, the lumen was not obliterated in the embryos examined. Morphometric analyses revealed that both the area of the epithelium and the number of epithelial cells decreased during the ’occlusion’ phase. This result suggests that, unlike the classical view, epithelial cell proliferation does not play an important role in occluding the lumen, but the predominant morphogenetic event during this phase is convergence of the epithelial cells to elongate the duodenum. Apoptosis, contrary to some classical views, decreased during the ’re-canalization’ phase, and it appeared to be involved in the formation of the small lumens in the epithelial ’plug’ and in villi formation, but not in enlarging the secondary lumens. The secondary small lumens in the occluded lumen were frequently formed near the border between the central ’plug’ and peripheral basal cells on the basement membrane. This and other findings of concentric differentiation in both the epithelial and mesenchymal layers suggested a possible control mechanism by the epithelium-mesenchymal interaction on human duodenal morphogenesis and histogenesis. The present electron microscopic observations also provided details on the mechanisms involved in the enlargement of the secondary lumen and differentiation of villi. The implications of these findings to duodenal anomalies are also discussed. Accepted: 12 November 2001
