Why study transport of peptides and proteins at the neurovascular interface

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is an immense neurovascular interface. In neurodegenerative, ischemic, and traumatic disorders of the central nervous system (CNS), the BBB may hinder the delivery of many therapeutic peptides and proteins to the brain and spinal cord. Fortunately, the mistaken dogma that peptides and proteins do not cross the BBB has been corrected during the past two decades by the accumulating evidence that peptides and proteins in the periphery exert potent effects in the CNS. Not only can peptides and proteins serve as carriers for selective therapeutic agents, but they themselves may directly cross the BBB after delivery into the bloodstream. Their passage may be mediated by simple diffusion or specific transport, both of which can be affected by interactions in the blood compartment (outside the BBB) and within the endothelial cells (at the BBB level). Although the majority of current delivery strategies focuses on modification of the molecule to be delivered, understanding the mechanisms of transport will eventually facilitate regulation of the BBB directly. We review the different aspects of interactions and discuss recent advances in the cell biology of peptide/protein transport across the BBB. Better understanding of the nature and regulation of the transport systems at the BBB will provide a new direction to enhance the interactions of peripheral peptides and proteins with the CNS.

精索扭转误诊24例分析

目的：分析精索扭转误诊的原因及教训，提高临床医生对该病的认识水平与警惕性，以减少误诊的发生。方法：对24例外院误诊的精索扭转病例进行回顾性分析。结果：24例患者均经手术证实为精索扭转，因未能及时诊断，延误时机而切除缺血坏死的睾丸。结论：彩色多普勒血流动态显像应作为诊断该疾病的常规与首选检查方法，对精索扭转一旦确诊或疑有精索扭转的患者应及早行紧急复位，以期挽救睾丸。同时行睾丸固定术也十分必要，对于确诊毫无保留价值的睾丸需行切除。     

Adipokines in cord blood and risk of wheezing disorders within the first two years of life

BACKGROUND: Adipokines are involved in the regulation of many inflammatory processes and are present at very high concentrations in cord blood of term infants. OBJECTIVE: We analysed data of a large prospective birth cohort study to examine whether adiponectin and leptin concentration in cord blood are determinants of wheezing disorders in children within the first 2 years of life. METHODS: Seven hundred and forty mothers and their newborns were included in this analysis. Adiponectin and leptin concentrations were measured in cord blood. The cumulative incidence of physician-reported asthma or obstructive bronchitis was recorded during a 2-year follow-up. RESULTS: During the first 2 years of life, asthma or obstructive bronchitis was reported by the caring paediatricians for 157 (19.6%) of the children. We found a strong interaction of cord blood adiponectin and history of atopic disease in the mother with respect to the risk of physician-reported asthma or obstructive bronchitis (P=0.006). Compared with children with cord blood levels in the middle quintile (reference category), the odds ratios for physician-reported asthma or obstructive bronchitis in the bottom quintile and top quintile were 0.14 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.02-0.90] and 2.12 (95% CI 0.67-6.66), respectively (P for trend=0.0003), among children of mothers with a history of atopy. This association was independent of other established risk factors. Leptin levels in cord blood were not associated with risk of asthma or obstructive bronchitis. CONCLUSIONS: In children of mothers with a history of atopy, concentrations of adiponectin in cord blood could play an important role in determining risk of wheezing disorders in early childhood.     

干细胞经脑脊液移植后在损伤脊髓的早期变化观察

目的观察神经干细胞经脑室注射后在损伤脊髓的早期动态变化。方法取转录有绿色荧光蛋白（GFP）基因的孕16天SD鼠胚脑海马组织，培养成神经干细胞球，注射到损伤脊髓鼠第四脑室（实验组），观察其在脊髓的存活、分化状况。结果移植细胞在脊髓表面形成细胞团。分布于损伤区头侧。细胞团的面积背侧小于腹侧；数目背侧多于腹侧。这种分布和增殖形式见于损伤脊髓正常部分和无损伤脊髓（对照组）。1周时细胞侵入损伤区，GFAP表达呈阳性。2～3周时与宿主细胞良好整合。结论移植细胞通过脑脊液能广泛分布于脊髓表面。保持黏附、增殖和分化能力。并可迁移、整合到损伤脊髓组织中。     

大鼠脊髓横断性损伤后细胞周期蛋白D3的表达变化

目的 探讨细胞周期蛋白D3（Cyclin D3）在横断性脊髓损伤（tSCI）后的表达变化以及定位情况。方法 将48只成年SD大鼠随机分为8组：正常对照组，T9横断伤2、8h、1、3、5、7和14d组，每组6只。采用Western blot测定损伤后各时间段Cyclin D3蛋白水平在脊髓中的表达变化。采用免疫组织化学方法检测Cyclin D3在正常以及损伤后脊髓中的分布和定位。结果 West—emblot显示，Cyclin D3蛋白水平在tSCI后头、尾段均呈现先升高后下降的趋势，尾段明显：Cyclin D3的表达于损伤后8h开始逐渐升高，3d达到高峰，一直持续到第5天，之后逐渐下降。免疫组织化学表明Cyclin D3在正常脊髓中均匀分布，损伤后3d，Cyclin D3在脊髓白质和灰质中表达明显增强；免疫荧光双标记表明Cyclin D3与神经元的标记物neuronal nucleus（NeuN）、少突胶质细胞标记物cyclic nucleotide 3’phosphohydrolase（CNPase）有明显共定位，与星形胶质细胞标记物gtial fibrillary acidic protein（GFAP）和小胶质细胞标记物OX-42也存在部分共定位。结论脊髓损伤后Cyc—lin D3蛋白水平呈现明显的时相变化，并且与神经元、少突胶质细胞、星形胶质细胞和小胶质细胞存在共定位，提示Cyclin D3参与了脊髓损伤后的病理生理过程。
