体外循环对瓣膜置换术病人血细胞胰岛素受体和红细胞ATP含量的影响

目的：观察体外循环（ＣＰＢ）对１０例瓣膜置换术病人全血细胞胰岛素受体和红细胞ＡＴＰ含量的影响。方法：利用放射配体结合试验，测定全血细胞胰岛素受体密度和亲和力；用高效液相色谱法测定红细胞ＡＴＰ含量，同时监测血糖和胰岛素浓度。结果：转流３０分钟，血细胞高亲和胰岛素受体（Ｒ１）密度明显增加（Ｐ＜０．０１），亲和力（Ｋ１）明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０１），低亲和胰岛素受体（Ｒ２）密度也明显增加（Ｐ＜０．０１），但亲和力（Ｋ２）变化不大（Ｐ＞０．０５）；停机３０分钟，上述变化有所恢复，但未到转流前的水平。转流３０分钟红细胞ＡＴＰ含量明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０１），并持续到停机后３０分钟，同时伴随血糖明显升高（Ｐ＜０．０１），胰岛素／血糖比值明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０１）。结论：ＣＰＢ可致血细胞胰岛素受体密度增加而亲和力下降，以及红细胞ＡＴＰ含量下降。     

A new monoclonal antibody which binds to the cytoplasm of large cell lymphomas.

We reported a new monoclonal antibody, designated FUB-1, reacting with normal and neoplastic large lymphoid cells. FUB-1 was produced using a Burkitt's lymphoma cell line (HBL-5) as an immunogen. Its immunoglobulin subtype was IgM. The determinant was not on the surface but in the cytoplasm. Western blotting analysis revealed that the molecular weight of the antigen was 52,000 dalton. In the normal lymphoid tissue, FUB-1 reacted with large lymphoid cells, but not with small or medium-sized lymphoid cells or plasma cells. In addition, the FUB-1 antigen was not found in resting cells in the peripheral blood (PB), but it was induced on mononuclear cells of PB by addition of PWM or PMA. In the B-cell lymphomas tested, FUB-1 reacted with small cleaved cell lymphomas (3/12), large cell lymphomas (7/10), Burkitt's lymphomas (4/4) and immunoblastic lymphomas (2/2), but not with small cell lymphomas (0/3) or intermediate lymphocytic lymphomas (0/8). These findings indicate that the FUB-1 antigen appears to be expressed on normal lymphoid cells during blastoid transformation and on neoplastic large lymphoid cells. FUB-1 also reacted with normal glandular epithelium and various adenocarcinomas. FUB-1 may be useful to investigate the mechanism of in vitro blastoid transformation or activation of lymphoid cells.     

5-Hydroxytryptamine increases excitability of CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells.

In the presence of spiperone to block the 5-HT1A-mediated inhibition of pyramidal cell activity, 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) produces a rapid transient increase in amplitude of the extracellularly recorded population spike from area CA1 of the hippocampus. Intracellular recording techniques in area CA1 of rat hippocampal slices were used to identify the ionic mechanism and to characterize the 5-HT receptor mediating this excitatory response to 5-HT. Most of the experiments were conducted in the presence of spiperone to block the 5HT1A hyperpolarization. Since spiperone also has high affinity for 5-HT2 receptors, any response mediated by 5-HT2 receptors would also be blocked. Bath perfusion of the slice with 5-HT increased the rectification of pyramidal cells in the subthreshold region, increased the resistance, and increased the amplitude of subthreshold excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) to initiate spike firing. The 5-HT2,1C-selective agonist DOI mimicked this effect of 5-HT, and the 5-HT2,1C antagonist ketanserin (1 microM) blocked the effect of DOI. There was no change in the amplitude of the slow afterhyperpolarization (sAHP) or the amplitude of evoked inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs). The increase in rectification and EPSP amplitude by 5-HT occurred even in the presence of the 5-HT4-selective antagonist BRL 24924 to prevent the decrease in amplitude of the sAHP by 5-HT. We conclude that 5-HT produces a fast excitatory response by increasing subthreshold conductance in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells. The identity of the receptor mediating this response was not conclusively identified, but resembled the 5-HT1C receptor.

Deprivation of form vision suppresses diurnal cycling of retinal levels of leu-enkephalin

Deprivation of form vision by the fitting of translucent occluders suppressed the diurnal cycling of enkephalinergic amacrine cells (the ENSLI amacrine cells), in the chicken. Daily periods of normal vision or enforcing temporal contrast using strobe lighting appeared to restore normal functioning of the ENSLI cells. These results suggest that the ENSLI cells are involved in retinal circuits that assess the quality of the visual image and control eye growth.
