Syndecan-1和E-candherin在声门上型喉鳞状细胞癌中的表达及意义

目的：探讨Syndecan—1和E—candherin两种黏附分子在声门上型喉鳞状细胞癌中的表达情况及与喉癌生物学行为之间的关系。方法：应用SP免疫组织化学法检测了38例声门上型喉鳞状细胞癌和7例喉黏膜慢性炎症组织中的Syndecan-1和E—candherin的表达并根据阳性瘤细胞占肿瘤细胞总数的比率进行半定量分析和统计检验。结果：Syndecan-1和E—candherin的阳性染色部位主要集中于细胞膜，E—candherin也可表达于细胞间质。Syndecan-1和E-candherin在恶性程度高的癌细胞上膜表达明显缺失，并与组织学分化、肿瘤大小密切相关。Syndecan-1和E-candherin在喉鳞状细胞癌细胞上的表达结果有相关性，但无敏感性差异。结论：Syndecan-1和E-candherin的表达可能在声门上型喉鳞状细胞癌的发生发展等生物学行为中起着重要的作用。     

ApoE-/-小鼠肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂的肾损害

目的 探讨ApoE^-/-小鼠肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂对下游肾脏的损伤机制。 方法 采用ApoE^-/-小鼠建立粥样硬化性肾动脉狭窄(ARAS)动物模型。选择肾动脉狭窄程度 <50％的ApoE^-/-小鼠，按斑块分为破裂组和未破裂组；选择同条件喂养的C57BL/6J 野生型小鼠为对照组。常规检测Scr及尿 N-乙酰-β-氨基葡萄糖苷酶(NAG)活性；Western印迹检测细胞核中核转录因子κBp65（NF-κBp65）、细胞间黏附分子1（ICAM-1）及P-选择素（P-sel）表达； RT-PCR检测白细胞介素6 （IL-6）mRNA表达；免疫组化染色检测巨噬细胞浸润情况。 结果破裂组Scr和尿NAG活性明显升高（均P < 0.01）；肾组织出现病理改变，肾间质中巨噬细胞浸润增加（P < 0.05）；细胞核中NF-κBp65表达增加（P < 0.05）；ICAM-1、P-sel、IL-6 mRNA表达增加（P < 0.05）。未破裂组上述指标与对照组比较，差异无统计学意义（P > 0.05）；肾脏未见明显病理改变。 结论 肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂可引起肾脏病理改变和肾功能受损；在粥样硬化性肾动脉狭窄的肾损害机制中，炎性反应是重要因素之一。     

子宫内膜异位症患者血清及腹腔液中血小板衍生生长因子、血管细胞粘附分子水平的变化及其意义

目的通过检测子宫内膜异位症(EMs)患者血清及腹腔液中血小板衍生生长因子(PDGF)、血管细胞粘附分子-(VCAM-1)浓度,探讨PDGF和VCAM-1在EMs发病中的作用。方法选取手术后病理证实为EMs的40例患者为EMs组,其中I~II期17例,III~IV23例;非EMs组20例作为对照组。应用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测血清及腹腔液中PDGF和VCAM-1水平。结果EMs组血清及腹腔液中PDGF、VCAM-1水平均明显高于对照组(P<0.01)。随EMs期别的增加,其血清和腹腔液中PDGF、VCAM-1含量呈上升趋势;EMsIII~IV期水平显著高于I~II期(P<0.05)。EMs患者PDGF与VCAM-1呈正相关性(P<0.05)。结论EMs患者PDGF、VCAM-1表达水平升高,在EMs的发生发展中具有重要作用。     

胃肠道肿瘤术后复发与肠粘连引起的肠梗阻临床分析

目的：探讨胃肠道肿瘤复发和粘连性肠梗阻的临床区别和治疗特点。方法：回顾性复习了经手术治疗的86例胃肠道肿瘤术后出现肠梗阻的临床资料，并分析其在临床上区别和治疗特点。结果：86例中粘连性肠梗阻39例，肿瘤复发47例，在复发组胃癌术后复发最为多见(P＜0．05)，原发性肿瘤分化差的其复发引起肠道梗阻明显高于分化好引起的粘连性肠梗阻(P＜0．01)。症状上肿瘤复发组出现的恶心、呕吐及肛门停止排便排气低于粘连性肠梗阻(P＜0．01)。肿瘤复发的肠梗阻表现为不全性梗阻，口服泛影葡胺治疗多能缓解，但大部分患者部分症状仍存在，粘连性肠梗阻多为完全性肠梗阻(P＜0．005)，多需要手术。结论：低分化原发肿瘤、不全性肠梗阻、低发生率的恶心和呕吐及肛门停止排便排气的肠梗阻，多提示为肿瘤的复发，泛影葡胺治疗后梗阻缓解但仍有症状存在应首先考虑是肿瘤复发。     

Cytochemical Redistribution of 5'-Nucleotidase in the Developing Cat Visual Cortex

The adenosine-producing ectoenzyme 5'-nucleotidase has recently been shown to undergo a marked redistribution during development of the cat visual cortex and to be involved in the remodelling of ocular dominance columns (Schoen et al., J. Comp. Neurol. , 296 , 379 – 392, 1990). Using an enzyme-cytochemical technique, we now investigate the developmental redistribution of 5'-nucleotidase activity in area 17 of kittens at the ultrastructural level. Between postnatal days 35 and 42, when 5'-nucleotidase is concentrated in layer IV, enzyme reaction product occupies the clefts of asymmetrical synapses within the neuropil. During later development (9th and 13th postnatal weeks), when 5'-nucleotidase spreads over all cortical laminae, the enzyme disappears from its synaptic localization and becomes increasingly associated with astrocytic membranes. The transient appearance of 5'-nucleotidase at synapses parallels the time-course and laminar profile of the synaptic remodelling which takes place during the critical period of visual cortex development. This suggests that synapse-bound 5'-nucleotidase activity plays a role in synaptic malleability, whereas its later association with glial profiles is likely to reflect other functions of the enzyme.     

The effects of interferon-beta on phorbol ester or calcium ionophore-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-I expression in epidermal carcinoma cells.

Keratinocyte intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-I expression is induced by interferon (IFN)-gamma. It has been previously reported that IFN-beta suppresses IFN-gamma-induced ICAM-I expression in A431 cells, a human squamous cell carcinoma cell line. In this study, the suppression mechanisms were investigated at the post second messenger level. Both 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and calcium ionophore (A23187) induce ICAM-I expression in A431 cells. ICAM-I expression induced by either was not suppressed with cotreatment with IFN-beta. Furthermore, IFN-beta did not inhibit the translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) by TPA. It appears that the pathways involved in ICAM-I expression induced by activation of PKC or increased in intracellular Ca++ are not affected by IFN-beta.     

Adhesion and growth of Serratia marcescens on artificial closed eye tears soaked hydrogel contact lenses

The adhesion to hydrogel contact lenses and growth of Serratia marcescens on artificial tear fluid (ATF) soaked lenses was investigated. Results indicated that a corneal ulcer isolate adhered more avidly to lenses; ATF increased adhesion for all strains tested. The contact lens induced acute red eye (CLARE) isolate adhered poorly; however; it grew to a larger extent on ATF-coated lenses. The ability of the corneal ulcer isolate to adhere to lenses may be an important factor in its pathogenicity whereas the ability of the CLARE isolate to grow on the lens in the presence of antimicrobial tear proteins may be important in the development of inflammation.

Human monocyte interactions with non-enzymatically glycated collagen

Summary We have previously shown that receptors for advanced glycation end products are expressed on activated human monocytes. We now report that activated human monocytes exhibit increased adhesion to non-enzymatically glycated collagen substrates (+32%±1, p<0.001), and the increased adhesion can be competitively inhibited with non-enzymatically glycated albumin. Non-activated monocytes, which do not express receptors for advanced glycation end products, exhibit decreased adhesion (-16%±1, p<0.001). Similar results were observed with substrates of fibronectin and endothelial cell matrix proteins. As the presence of glycation adducts on collagen interferes with the normal binding of monocytes/macrophages, one possible role for advanced glycation adduct receptors on activated monocytes is to counterbalance such decreased adherence. Overcompensation for long periods of time may lead to pathological changes. Additionally, such receptors may play a role in monocyte-mediated remodelling of glycated matrix proteins, as we have observed increased degradation of nonenzymatically glycated collagen substrates by activated human monocytes at 2 h (+52%±11, p=0.01), 3 h(+49% ±10, p=0.01), and 4 h (+36%±6, p<0.01) after adding activated monocytes to ¹²⁵I-labelled substrates.     

Localization of adhesion molecules on human spermatozoa by fluorescence microscopy

Summary.  The expression of adhesion molecules on human spermatozoa of healthy probands was analysed. The localization patterns of adhesion molecules (AM) on the spermatozoal surface were documented by fluorescence microscopy. Spermatozoa were incubated with antibodies against α1 (CD49a), α2 (CD49b), α3 (CD49c), α4 (CD49d), α5 (CD49e), α6 (CD49f) chains of β1 integrins, β1 (CD29), β2 (CD18), αV (CD51), β3 (CD61) and β4 integrin chains, the LFA-3 (Lymphocyte function antigen, CD58) from the immunoglobulin superfamily and the extracellular matrix proteins laminin, fibronectin and collagen IV. For collagen IV, α1 and α2 chains no expression could be noticed. Laminin was detected at the acrosomal membrane, fibronectin and β4 chain mainly at the equatorial membrane. The fibronectin receptors α3, α4 and α5 chains of the β1 integrins were mainly located on acrosomal and equatorial membrane areas. Laminin receptor α6 chain was located postacrosomal and less frequently acrosomal. β2 chain and vitronectin receptors αV and β3 chains had a mainly postacrosomal localization pattern. LFA-3 was found constantly on postacrosomal membrane areas. Double staining technique was used to prove the simultaneous occurrence of fibronectin and its integrin receptors α3, α4 and α5 chains and of αV and β2 chains on spermatozoa. The localization patterns of integrins on double stained spermatozoa were similar to the patterns described for single stained spermatozoa. The localization of fibronectin appeared to be influenced by the presence of integrins: the typical equatorial fibronectin band disappeared in case of an equatorial localization of integrins.
