稳定性核素测定大鼠小肠蛋白质合成

目的：建立稳定性核素（[L-^15N]亮氨酸）测定大鼠小肠蛋白质合成率的方法。方法：分别测定静脉注射相同剂量[L-^15N]亮氨酸不同时相的大鼠小肠^15N丰度及不同剂量[L-^15N]亮氨酸同一时相的大鼠小肠^15N丰度。结果：大鼠小肠游离氨基酸池中^15N核素丰度在注射后0．5h内呈线性上升并达高峰，维持4h后缓慢下降，小肠蛋白质中的^15N丰度0．5h至12h基本维持不变；随着注射剂量的增加，大鼠小肠蛋白质分数合成率（FSR）亦增加，当[L-^15N]亮氨酸剂量在1．0mmol／kg以上，FSR并不随施加[L15N]亮氨酸剂量的加大而增加。结论：在进行大鼠小肠蛋白质合成率测定时，一次性静脉注射的测量最佳时限为0．5h，剂量为1．0mmol／kg。     

Kniegelenkluxationen

Zusammenfassung Kniegelenkluxationen sind seltene, aber schwer wiegende Verletzungen mit z. T. erheblichen Folgen. Begleitende Nerven- und Gefäßverletzungen sind nicht selten. Bei spontaner Reposition kann das Verletzungsausmaß initial unterschätzt werden. Die primäre Diagnostik muss die neurologische Untersuchung sowie die sichere Beurteilung des Gefäßstatus einschließen. Die Sicherung der Durchblutung des betroffenen Beins steht in der Akutphase im Vordergrund, Läsionen müssen notfallmäßig operativ versorgt werden. Bei drohendem Kompartment ist eine Faszienlogenspaltung erforderlich, die Instabilität wird temporär mittels Fixateur externe transfixiert. Bei Hochrasanztraumen sind Begleitverletzungen auszuschließen, bei sedierten und beatmeten Patienten z. B. mit Spiral-CT. Sind nur die Kreuzbänder betroffen, kann ein arthroskopisch gestützter Ersatz vorgenommen werden, Transplantate werden bevorzugt von der Gegenseite entnommen. Die im angloamerikanischen Sprachraum verwendeten Allografts haben sich in unserer Region noch nicht durchgesetzt. Bei ausgedehnten Kapselläsionen und Beteiligung der Kollateralbänder sind arthroskopische Techniken nicht indiziert, es sollte offen rekonstruiert und ggf. augmentiert werden; sekundär verbliebene Instabilitäten können gezielt dem Bandersatz zugeführt werden.     

236例无痛人工流产术的疗效观察

目的:探讨异丙酚和芬太尼混合液静脉麻醉、笑气吸入麻醉及2%利多卡因宫颈局部浸润麻醉三种镇痛方法在人工流产手术中的疗效比较。方法:自2003年8月至2004年1月对236例妇科门诊早孕要求终止妊娠的妇女实施无痛人工流产术。随机分成3组。A组:异丙酚+芬太尼静脉麻醉(85例);B组:N2O(笑气)吸入麻醉(88例);C组:2%利多卡因宫颈局部浸润麻醉(63例),观察人流术中其镇痛效果并对疼痛进行分级。结果:A组85例100%可达到完全不痛(疼痛分级为0级);B组65.90%可达到完全不痛,Ⅰ级23.86%,Ⅱ级9.09%,Ⅲ级1.15%;C组0例可达到完全不痛,Ⅰ级63.49%,Ⅱ级30.16%,Ⅲ级6.35%。结论:受术者如无心肺疾患及人流禁忌证,无痛人工流产术应选择异丙酚+芬太尼静脉麻醉可达到完全无痛,痛苦最小。     

钙拮抗剂TMB-8抑制BHQ,NE和KCl引起的培养乳牛基底动脉单个平滑肌细胞内游离钙的升高

用AR CM MIC阳离子测定系统,测量单个细胞内游离钙浓度([Ca²⁺]i),研究8-(N,N-二乙胺)-n-辛基 3,4,5-三甲氧基苯甲酸酯(TMB-8)对培养乳牛基底动脉平滑肌[Ca²⁺]i的作用。在细胞外钙浓度为1.3mmol·L^-1时,TMB-8(30μmol·L^-1)可明显抑制BHQ,NE及KCl引起[Ca²⁺]i的升高。在细胞外钙为零+EGTA 0.1mmol·L^-1时,TMB-8(10,30及100μmol·L^-1)可浓度依赖性地降低静息[Ca²⁺]i,TMB-8(30μmol·L^-1)可几乎完全阻断BHQ及NE引起[Ca²⁺]i的增加。研究表明TMB-8降低培养乳牛基底动脉平滑肌[Ca²⁺]i的机制,主要是抑制肌浆网Ca²⁺的释放,或增加肌浆网对Ca²⁺的摄入,并由此间接地抑制细胞外钙的内流。     

Stimulation of phagocytic function in mouse macrophages by neurotensin and neuromedin N

The neuropeptides neurotensin and neuromedin N (from 10⁻¹² M to 10⁻⁹ M) have been showed in this study to stimulate significantly in vitro several steps of the phagocytic process: adherence to substrate, chemotaxis, ingestion of inert particles (latex beads) and production of superoxide anion measured by nitroblue tetrazolium reduction in resting peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c mice. A dose-response relationship was observed, with a maximal stimulation of the phagocytic process at 10⁻¹¹ M. The two neuropeptides induced no change of intracellular cyclic AMP in murine macrophages. Moreover, adherence and chemotaxis decreased significantly in the presence of EGTA (1 mM), a chelator of extracellular Ca²⁺, or ryanodine (0.5 mM), a blocker of a Ca²⁺-gated channel from the endoplasmic reticulum, in both controls and samples with the addition of neurotensin or neuromedin N. These results suggest that there is no relation between the cAMP messenger system and the phagocytic process stimulation in murine peritoneal macrophages by neurotensin or neuromedin N. In addition, the results observed with EGTA and ryanodine could indicate that these two neuropeptides produce their effects through an increase of intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration.     

Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 with the N279K tau mutation

We present a case of frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP‐17) harboring the N279K mutation in the MAPT gene from the family known as pallido‐ponto‐nigral degeneration (PPND). This 49‐year‐old man was followed for 17 years. He presented at age 41 years with left leg stiffness and en‐bloc turning. During the course of his illness he developed a constellation of symptoms including parkinsonism, pyramidal signs, vertical gaze palsy, dysphagia, dystonia, personality and cognitive dysfunction, weight loss and mutism. Gross neuropathological examination showed mild atrophy of the cerebral cortex, hippocampal formation, amygdala, thalamus, subthalamic nucleus and depigmentation of the substantia nigra. Microscopy revealed neuronal loss and gliosis in the same regions. Tau immunohistochemistry showed pretangles, numerous threads, grain‐like structures and oligodendroglial tau‐positive inclusions (“coiled bodies”). In the spinal cord the tau pathology was more abundant in gray than white matter. Pretangles and threads were present in the anterior and, to a lesser extent, in the posterior horns. FTDP‐17 should be suspected in patients with a history of familial parkinsonism combined with behavioral and cognitive changes, onset before age 65 years and an aggressive clinical course.     

Heparin effect on ionised calcium concentration

The effect of heparin on plasma ionised calcium was studied by adding it in increasing amounts to whole blood from 10 normal subjects. There was no significant change in ionised calcium from the addition of 1 U/ml but a significant fall of 0.02 mmol/1 when 2 U/ml were added and a progressive further fall with increasing concentrations. Heparin from three different manufacturers produced similar results. The effect of heparinisation in vivo was studied during regular haemodialysis on 10 patients with chronic renal failure. Following intravenous injection of 10000 U of heparin there was a consistent and significant fall averaging 0.03 mmol/l.     

Spermidine/Spermine N-Acetyltransferase, a New Biochemical Marker for Epithelial Proliferation in Rat Bladder

We examined the activity of spermidine/spermine N ¹-acetyltransferase (SAT), a rate-limiting enzyme of the biodegradation of polyamines, in N -butyl- N -(4–hydroxybutyI)nitrosamine-induced transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) and melamine-induced papillomatosis of rat bladder, and compared the activity to that of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). Both activities were higher in both lesions than in control rats. The difference between SAT and ODC activities in cancerous tissue and papillomatosis was not significant. Cells stained for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were abundant in papillomatosis. TCC had areas with much PCNA. The results indicated that an elevation of SAT activity occurs in both reversible and irreversible proliferation of bladder epithelium and could be important in bladder carcinogenesis.
