实验性心包炎心钠素与内皮素变化及其临床意义

目的　研究实验性心包炎心钠素 (ANP)与内皮素 (ET)的变化 ,为临床诊治小儿心包炎提供实验依据。方法　家兔 2 4只 ,随机分为实验组 1 3只 ,在心包腔内注入 30 %尿素 (2ml/kg) ;对照组 1 1只 ,在心包腔内注入生理盐水 (2ml/kg)作为对照。注射前与注射后 1、4、7、1 0、1 5与 2 1d分别测定血浆ANP与ET。注射后2 1d测定心肌中ANP与ET ,同时切取心脏作病理与电镜检查。结果　注射后 1～ 1 0d血浆ANP和ET较注射前与对照组明显增高 (P <0 .0 5) ,注射后 1 5dANP下降 ,注射后 2 1d血浆与心肌中的ANP均较注射前与对照组明显下降 (P <0 .0 1 ) ,注射后 2 1d血浆与心肌ET则显著增高 (P <0 .0 1 )。届时心包病理与电镜检查示心包增厚 ,心肌萎缩与损害。结论　心包炎早期血浆ANP与ET均升高 ,说明心功能不全处于代偿期 ,应早期切开引流 ,心包炎后期血浆ANP下降而ET持续升高表示心包已增厚 ,心肌发生萎缩与损害 ,心功能处于失偿期 ,应及时行心包大部剥脱手术 ,解除心肌束缚 ,有望心功能得到恢复

No Correlation Between Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Concentrations and Echocardiographic Measurements of Left Atrial Size or Left Ventricular Size and Function in Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) may be associated with activation of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). The exact trigger for the release of ANP is still being debated. Atrial volume, pressure, and wall stretch are considered to be the main determinants of ANP activation. The aim of the study was to evaluate plasma ANP concentrations in patients with persistent AF and to analyze the echocardiographic determinants of ANP concentration in this group. The study population included 67 patients, 59 ± 7 years of age, with a median AF duration of 5.5 months (range 0.1–12). The relationship between plasma ANP concentrations and echocardiographic left atrial (LA) diameter and volume, and left ventricular (LV) diameter and ejection fraction (EF) was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The median baseline plasma ANP concentration was 63 pg/mL (range 21–126) in the study group versus 34 pg/mL (range 16–73) in a control group. The mean left antero-posterior atrial dimension, LA volume, LV enddiastolic diameter, and LVEF were 48 mm, 104 mL, 52 mm, and 54%, respectively. A significant linear positive correlation was found between plasma ANP concentration and maximal LA volume (r = 0.62, P < 0.01). A negative correlation was found between LVEF and plasma ANP concentration (r =−0.42, P = 0.01). However, by multivariate regression analysis, no echocardiographic parameter was an independent predictor of plasma ANP concentration. Plasma ANP concentrations were independent of echocardiographic measurements of LA size or LV size and function in patients with persistent AF.     

Neurofilament M and calbindin D28k are present in mutually exclusive subpopulations of enteric neurons in the rat submucous plexus

Immunocytochemical methods have been used to examine the localisation of 3 neurofilament proteins and the calcium binding protein, calbindin D_28k, in whole mount preparations of the submucous plexus in the Wistar rat. Neurofilament-M (160 kDA protein) was present in 40% of the submucosal neurons, staining fine filaments in the soma and the axonal processes. Calbindin D_28k was present in 40% of the submucosal neurons staining both the soma and nerves within the plexus. The neurofilament proteins and calbindin D_28k were never observed within the same neurons. Neurofilament-M was co-localised with substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide but not somatostatin or the other neuropeptides investigated. Calbindib D_28k was co-localised with vasoactive intestinal polypeptide and neuropeptide Y. Galanin- and somatostatin-immunoreactive neurons did not contain either the neurofilament proteins or calbindin D_28k. The results demonstrate the presence of subsets of submucosal neurons that can be distinguished by the presence of neurofilament-M or calbinsin D_28k.     

血半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂C水平对急性脑血管病患者早期肾损害的诊断价值

目的探讨急性脑血管病患者早期肾损害的机制及早期监测指标。方法对194例急性脑血管病患者(包括脑梗死129例,脑出血65例)及60例正常对照者同时测定血半胱氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂C(Cys-C)和血肌酐(SCr)浓度,对其中血Cys-c浓度增高但SCr浓度正常的48例急性脑血管病肾早期损害患者用甘露醇治疗,并检测治疗前后血Cys-c浓度。结果在早期肾损害组,血Cys-c浓度明显高于对照组(P<0.001),而SCr浓度2组无显著性差异(P>0.05)。48例急性脑血管病肾早期损害者经甘露醇治疗后,血Cys-c浓度较治疗前明显降低(P<0.001)。结论血清Cys-c测定有助于早期发现肾功能损害,治疗脑血管病的同时应注意监测肾功能。

Crystal and molecular structure of l-valyl-l-lysine hydrochloride

l -Valyl-l -lysine hydrochloride, C₁₁N₃O₃H₂₃ HCl, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2, with a = 5.438(5), b = 14.188(5), c = 9.521(5) Å, β= 95.38(2)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure, solved by direct methods, refined to R = 0.036, using full matrix least-squares method. The peptide exists in a zwitterionic form, with the N atom of the lysine side-chain protonated. The two γ-carbons of the valine side-chain have positional disorder, giving rise to two conformations, χ¹¹₁= -67.3 and 65.9°, one of which (65.9°) is sterically less favourable and has been found to be less popular amongst residues branching at β-C. The lysine side-chain has the geometry of g^? tgt, not seen in crystal structures of the dipeptides reported so far. Interestingly, χ³₂ (63.6°) of lysine side-chain has a gauche⁺ conformation unlike in most of the other structures, where it is trans. The neighbouring peptide molecules are hydrogen bonded in a head-to-tail fashion, a rather uncommon interaction in lysine peptide structures. The structure shows considerable similarity with that of l -Lys-l -Val HO in conformational angles and H-bond interactions [4].     

转TrkC基因神经干细胞移植对脊髓损伤的治疗作用

目的 研究转酪氨酸激酶C（tyrosine kinase C，TrkC）基因神经干细胞（neural stem cells，NSCs）移植治疗脊髓损伤的作用。方法 60只SD大鼠随机分成正常对照组（A组）、脊髓半切组（B组）、NSCs移植组（C组）、NSCs移植＋神经营养素（NT）-3局部使用（D）组、转TrkC基WNSCs移植组（E组）和转TrkC基因NSCs移植＋NT-3局部使用组（F组），每组10只。脊髓损伤后第9天进行细胞移植。各组大鼠在细胞移植后2个月，行体感诱发电位（SEP）和运动诱发电位（MEP）检查以及脊髓运动功能（BBB）评分。结果 细胞移植后2个月SEP和MEP发生潜伏期和峰峰波幅以及右后肢BBB评分的恢复均以下组最佳，与其他各组比较，差异有统计学意义（P＜ 0．05，0．01）。结论在局部给予的NT-3作用下，转TrkC基因NSCs能较好地促进损伤脊髓功能的恢复。
