抗淋球菌IgA蛋白酶单克隆抗体特性的初步研究

本文对以重组淋球菌ＩｇＡ蛋白酶为抗原制备的７株特异性ＭｃＡｂ的特性进行了初步研究。结果有５株（１Ｃ８、１Ｅ５、１Ｆ１１、１Ｇ３和２Ｅ６）能中和淋球菌ＩｇＡ蛋白酶活性。经相加试验初步证明，其中１Ｆ１１、２Ｇ３与其它３株ＭｃＡｂ的作用位点不同。因此，淋球菌ＩｇＡ蛋白酶至少存在３个中和表位。     

Immunohistochemical differentiation of metastases of renal carcinomas versus other carcinomas with anti-γGT monoclonal antibody 138H11

Aims : Adenocarcinomas account for about 60% of metastatic cancers of unknown primary (CUP) site. In such a clinical CUP situation, histopathologists are challenged to differentiate renal cell carcinomas (RCC) from other adenocarcinomas with similar immunophenotypes, especially chemotherapeutically treatable mammary and ovarian carcinomas. Methods and results : Recently, we produced a monoclonal antibody (mAb), designated 138H11, against human gamma-glutamyltransferase (γGT), which stained over 98% primary clear cell and chromophilic RCC on frozen sections. The 138H11 epitope could not be stained using conventional techniques in most paraffin-embedded sections of the same origin, due to destruction by formalin fixation below the detection level. Here, we demonstrate that mAb 138H11 can specifically stain γGT in paraffin-embedded primary and metastatic RCC after enhancement with an ultrasensitive immunohistochemical method. We analysed a selected subgroup of adenocarcinomas with immunophenotypes which would not allow a differentiation from RCC in a CUP situation. We found a predominantly membranous expression of the 138H11 target antigen in 26/51 primary RCC and 15/34 metastatic RCC. In contrast, all 43/43 primary ovarian and bronchial carcinomas as well as 54/54 metastases of ovarian, mammary, bronchial and gastric carcinomas were negative for mAb 138H11. Conclusions : The data suggest that mAb 138H11 is useful for the immunohistochemical differentiation of RCC from other metastatic adenocarcinomas if the primary site of the tumour is not known.     

重症肌无力中枢神经系统受损模型

目的近年研究结果表明，重症肌无力（ＭＧ）病变部位并不仅仅局限于神经肌接头（ＮＭＪ）处突触后膜烟碱型乙酰胆碱受体（ｎＡＣｈＲ），烟碱型乙酰胆碱受体抗体（ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ）病理作用可能波及到中枢神经系统（ＣＮＳ）。因此，有必要建立模拟ＭＧ患者ＣＮＳ损害的动物模型，研究ＭＧ患者脑脊液中存在的ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ引起ＣＮＳ损害的机制。方法从ＭＧ患者血中提取的ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ经侧脑室穿刺注入到大鼠脑室系统，然后观察其症状和体征，以及用脑干听觉诱发电位仪（ＢＡＥＰ）检测鼠脑干听觉传导中枢功能。用免疫组化法（ＡＢＣ）研究ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ与ＣＮＳ神经－ｎＡＣｈＲ之间免疫结合反应及其分布。结果大鼠除了出现脑干听觉传导中枢功能障碍外，还出现类似于ＭＧ动物模型表现的症状。免疫组化研究结果显示，神经－ｎＡＣｈＲ样阳性免疫反应广泛分布于ＣＮＳ许多部位。结论脑室内注入的ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ与神经－ＡＣｈＲ结合引起ＣＮＳ功能障碍和出现ＭＧ动物模型样症状。我们首次建立的中枢受损的ＭＧ模型将有助于阐明ＡＣｈＲ－ａｂ引起中枢受损和ＣＮＳ下位运动神经元引起横纹肌收缩无力的机制。     

ELISA检测襄虫病人血清循环抗原及其在疗效考核方面的应用

用快速双抗体夹心ＥＬＩＳＡ检测囊虫病人血清中的循环抗原，其阳性率为６７．５％；正常人血有的假阳性率为５．３３％；包虫、肝吸虫和弓形虫病人血清的交叉反应率分别为６．９％、７．５％和１２．５％。结果表明．该法与常规双抗体夹心ＥＬＩＳＡ相比具有较为敏感、快速、稳定和节省血清、试剂用量的优点，但其特异性有待进一步提高。用快速双抗体夹心ＥＬＩＳＡ和间接型ＥＬＩＳＡ检测第１至１０疗程囊虫病人血清中的循环抗原和抗体，表明检测循环抗原考核囊虫病人的治疗效果优于检测抗体     

Effect of Glass Transition Temperature on the Stability of Lyophilized Formulations Containing a Chimeric Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibody

Purpose. The purpose of this study is to highlight the importance of knowing the glass transition temperature, T_g, of a lyophilized amorphous solid composed primarily of a sugar and a protein in the interpretation of accelerated stability data. Methods. Glass transition temperatures were measured using DSC and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy. Aggregation of protein in the solid state was monitored using size-exclusion chromatography. Results. Sucrose formulation (T_g ~ 59°C) when stored at 60°C was found to undergo significant aggregation, while the trehalose formulation (T_g ~ 80°C) was stable at 60°C. The instability observed with sucrose formulation at 60°C can be attributed to its T_g (~59°C) being close to the testing temperature. Increase in the protein/sugar ratio was found to increase the T_gs of the formulations containing sucrose or trehalose, but to different degrees. Conclusions. Since the formulations exist in glassy state during their shelf-life, accelerated stability data generated in the glassy state (40°C) is perhaps a better predictor of the relative stability of formulations than the data generated at a higher temperature (60°C) where one formulation is in the glassy state while the other is near or above its T_g.     

异常孕产史妇女风疹病毒感染的研究

目的了解孕妇风疹病毒的感染率；为早期预测异常妊娠的出现、及时防治提供理论依据。方法采用酶联免疫吸附法（ＥＬＩＳＡ）检测２０６例有异常孕产史妇女和８１０例正常孕妇血清中特异性抗风疹ＩｇＭ抗体。结果有异常孕产史的妇女风疹病毒感染率明显高于对照组（ｘ２＝１１．３３Ｐ＜０．０１）。结论风疹病毒感染是造成异常妊娠的主要原因之一；孕前或孕早期进行风疹病毒感染的检测，对降低异常妊娠的出现具有重要意义。
