新洁尔灭对小白鼠抗早孕的病理组织学观察

本文报告用不同剂量的新洁尔灭和同体积生理盐水注入怀孕5天小白鼠的宫腔内,3天后杀死,观察其蜕膜、胚泡、宫内膜腺体和卵巢黄体病理学改变。实验表明:对照组无改变。实验组小白鼠的蜕膜细胞全部退变坏死。病变随着给药量的递增而渐趋严重;同时胚泡亦有退变和坏死。提示:新洁尔灭对早期妊娠小白鼠是有抗早孕效果的。根据实验结果,我们认为新洁尔灭对小白鼠抗早孕的机制,很可能是一个综合因素,有直接的,也有间接的。作者强调在抗早孕机制诸因素中,蜕膜退变坏死是一个重要的因素。     

Sodium regulation of agonist and antagonist binding to β-adrenoceptors in intact and Ns-deficient membranes

Summary Agonist binding to various hormone receptors mediating adenylate cyclase inhibition is decreased by sodium ions. We studied the influence of Na⁺ on agonist and antagonist binding to -adrenoceptors in membrane preparations of guinea pig lung, S49 lymphoma wild-type cells (WT) and their N_s-deficient cyc^– variants by measuring binding of the antagonist, [¹²⁵I]iodocyanopindolol ([¹²⁵I]CYP). At 37° C, sodium decreased the receptor affinity for the agonist, isoproterenol, in all three membrane preparations. In lung and WT membranes, Na⁺ steepened the shallow agonist competition curves in a manner similar to and synergistic with guanine nucleotides. When binding was performend at 4° C, sodium regulation but not guanine nucleotide regulation of agonist binding was preserved. At the low temperature, [¹²⁵I]CYP affinity was reduced, and sodium increased [¹²⁵I]CYP binding in both N_s-containing and N_s-deficient membranes by increasing the antagonist affinity without significant change in total receptor number. Compared to Na⁺, Li⁺ and K⁺ were much less potent and efficient in decreasing agonist and increasing antagonist binding. Na⁺ and Mg²⁺ had opposite effects on agonist binding in the N_s-containing lung and WT membranes but not in the N_s-deficient cyc^– membranes. The data indicate that sodium not only regulates binding of inhibitory hormone receptors but also agonist and antagonist binding to the adenylate cyclase stimulatory -adrenoceptor. The finding that sodium regulation of -adrenoceptor binding is also observed in the N_{s 2} cyc^– membranes, furthermore, indicates that the target of sodium is not the -subunit of N_s but possibly a component common to both types of receptor systems regulating adenylate cyclase activity.     

Spinal facilitation in cholinergic-sympathetic efferents by desipramine

Summary Electrodermal potentials (EDPs) evoked by electrical stimulation of the cholinergic-sympathetic system at different levels were recorded in the forepaws of anaesthetized cats and used as a measure of sudomotor activity. After pretreatment with yohimbine (0.25 mg/kg i.v.) to block ₂-adrenoceptors, unilateral electrical stimulation of the hypothalamus (square wave pulses 1 ms duration, 16 Hz, 2 s train length at intervals of 1 min) induced EDPs in both forepaws. Injection of the inhibitor of neuronal catecholamine reuptake, desipramine (1 mg/kg i.v.), facilitated the EDPs in both forepaws, even though access of the drug to the sweat glands was prevented by application of a tourniquet to one paw. The facilitation was abolished by injection of the specific ₁-adrenoceptor antagonist, prazosin (0.5 mg/kg i.v.). An equal enhancement of this effect by desipramine (1 mg/kg i.v.) and its abolition by prazosin (0.5 mg/kg i.v.) was obtained in cats with the brain stem transected at the level of the medulla oblongata and electrical stimulation of the spinal cord at C1. EDPs evoked in the right forepaw by preganglionic electrical stimulation of the right stellate ganglion were inhibited by desipramine (1 mg/kg i.v.).From these and previous results it is concluded that inhibition of neuronal reuptake of catecholamines results in facilitation of activity in sudomotor efferents. This effect is mediated by spinal ₁-adrenoceptors and provides an explanation of the occasional occurrence of excessive sweating in psychiatric patients treated with tricyclic antidepressants.     

Potential Role of Probiotics in Ameliorating Psoriasis by Modulating Gut Microbiota in Imiquimod-Induced Psoriasis-Like Mice

Psoriasis is an immune-mediated systemic disease that may be treated with probiotics. In this study, probiotic strains that could or could not decrease interleukin (IL)-17 levels were applied to imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like mice via oral administration. Bifidobacterium adolescentis CCFM667, B. breve CCFM1078, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei CCFM1074, and Limosilactobacillus reuteri CCFM1132 ameliorated psoriasis-like pathological characteristics and suppressed the release of IL-23/T helper cell 17 (Th17) axis-related inflammatory cytokines, whereas B. animalis CCFM1148, L. paracasei CCFM1147, and L. reuteri CCFM1040 neither alleviated the pathological characteristics nor reduced the levels of inflammatory cytokines. All effective strains increased the contents of short-chain fatty acids, which were negatively correlated with the levels of inflammatory cytokines. By performing 16S rRNA gene sequencing, the diversity of gut microbiota in psoriasis-like mice was found to decrease, but all effective strains made some specific changes to the composition of gut microbiota compared to the ineffective strains. Furthermore, except for B. breve CCFM1078, all other effective strains decreased the abundance of the family Rikenellaceae, which was positively correlated with psoriasis-like pathological characteristics and was negatively correlated with propionate levels. These findings demonstrated effects of strain-specificity, and how probiotics ameliorated psoriasis and provide new possibilities for the treatment of psoriasis.
