采血者针刺伤的调查及危险因素分析

针刺伤在采血工作中经常发生，其危害大，后果严重，一般情况下还没有引起人们足够的重视。我国是肝炎的高流行区，近年来艾滋病在我国的发病率呈倍增的趋势。血液污染的针刺伤是导致血站采血人员发生血源性传染病最主要的职业因素。作者从实际工作出发，收集相关资料，系统的阐述了针刺伤的发生因素及预防措施等，并结合相关理论提出了一系列的措施和建议。     

绞股蓝总皂甙对自由基损伤血管内皮的保护作用

本文观察了绞股蓝总皂苷(Gypenosides,GYP)对电解性自由基(OFR)损伤离体兔胸主动脉和脑基底动脉内皮的保护作用:电解性OFR使乙酰胆碱(Ach)诱导的兔主动脉环舒张百分率明显降低,舒张比值(RR)变小,使离体兔脑基底动脉灌流压升高。结果显示绞股蓝能保护血管内皮免受OFR损伤,且呈剂量依赖性,并明显抑制OFR所致灌流压升高。作用似二甲亚砜(DMSO),说明GYP对外源性OFR损伤具保护作用。     

L-丙酰肉碱对再灌注心肌损伤的保护及体外抗自由基作用

目的:观察L－丙酰肉碱对缺血再灌注心肌的保护作用，并探讨其机理。方法：采用大鼠在体心脏冠状动脉前降支阻断5min造成缺血再灌注模型，持续心电监护，观察心律失常与心功能指标；应用电子顺磁共振观察L－丙酰肉碱对Fenton体系及二甲基亚砜（DMSO）碱性有氧体系产生自由基的作用。结果：L－丙酰肉碱静脉给药明显减少再灌注时室性心动过速、室性纤维颤动的发生（P＜0．05），促进再灌注后左室收缩压、左室压最大上升速率、左室压最大下降速率、心力环面积的恢复，与对照组相比，各参数均明显增高（P＜0．05）；静脉注射L－丙酰肉碱100mmol／L时促进Fenton体系OH的产生，而500mmol／L时产生明显抑制作用，L－丙酰肉碱明显抑制DMSO碱性有氧体系OS的产生。结论：L－丙酰肉碱明显减少再灌注心律失常的发生，促进再灌注后心功能的恢复。推测它对自由基的作用可能是再灌注损伤保护机理之一。     

Reactive oxygen species and human spermatozoa: physiology and pathology

The role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathophysiology of human sperm function has been emphasized in recent years. ROS production in semen has been associated with loss of sperm motility, decreased capacity for sperm–oocyte fusion and loss of fertility. There is a current presumption that the most prolific source of ROS in sperm suspensions is an NADPH oxidase located in leukocytes or in spermatozoa which produces superoxide which is further converted to peroxide by the action of superoxide dismutase. Hydrogen peroxide has been recognized as the most toxic oxidizing species for human spermatozoa, which are very sensitive to lipid peroxidation owing to the high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids in their plasma membrane, though this is not the sole mechanism by which sperm function might be impaired by ROS. Although the excessive production of ROS is detrimental to human spermatozoa, there is a growing body of evidence which suggests that ROS are also involved in the physiological control of some sperm functions. This review focuses on the nature and source of the ROS generated by human spermataozoa as well as their operational mechanisms and their effects, which may be detrimental or beneficial.     

Thylakoids suppress appetite by increasing cholecystokinin resulting in lower food intake and body weight in high‐fat fed mice

Thylakoids are membranes isolated from plant chloroplasts which have previously been shown to inhibit pancreatic lipase/colipase catalysed hydrolysis of fat in vitro and induce short‐term satiety in vivo. The purpose of the present study was to examine if dietary supplementation of thylakoids could affect food intake and body weight during long‐term feeding in mice. Female apolipoprotein E‐deficient mice were fed a high‐fat diet containing 41% of fat by energy with and without thylakoids for 100 days. Mice fed the thylakoid‐enriched diet had suppressed food intake, body weight gain and body fat compared with the high‐fat fed control mice. Reduced serum glucose, serum triglyceride and serum free fatty acid levels were found in the thylakoid‐treated animals. The satiety hormone cholecystokinin was elevated, suggesting this hormone mediates satiety. Leptin levels were reduced, reflecting a decreased fat mass. There was no sign of desensitization in the animals treated with thylakoids. The results suggest that thylakoids are useful to suppress appetite and body weight gain when supplemented to a high‐fat food during long‐term feeding. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

丹参酚酸B盐对内皮素诱导的人肝星状细胞收缩的抑制作用及机制研究

目的 以培养的人肝星状细胞（HSC）为研究对象，观察内皮素-1（ET-1）对HSC的收缩作用及丹参酚酸B盐（SA-B）对ET-1的抑制作用，并探讨SA B抑制HSC收缩的作用环节和可能作用机制。 方法 采用酶消化、Nycodenz密度梯度离心的方法分离人HSC，以胶原凝胶收缩法观察ET-1对于传代HSC的收缩作用，以及低、中、高3种剂量的SA B对其不同的干预作用；将ET-1、SA-B直接添加于传代HSC的无血清培养液中，以激光共聚焦显微镜技术观测HSC内钙离子浓度的变化。 结果 胶原凝胶收缩实验显示，ET-1可诱导HSC收缩（P<0.01）；3种剂量的SA-B可明显抑制ET-1诱导的HSC收缩（均P<0.01）；加入ET-1后，HSC形态学改变明显，细胞数量减少，但SA B对这些改变也有抑制。激光共聚焦显微镜下观察，ET-1可刺激细胞内钙离子短暂迅速增加，加入SA-B后，该作用被明显抑制。 结论 SA-B能显著抑制ET-1诱导的HSC收缩，其抑制收缩的机制与降低HSC内的钙离子浓度有关。SA-B的抑制HSC收缩作用可能是其抗肝纤维化及门脉高压的机制之一。
