纤溶酶原激活剂抑制物2型抑制细胞凋亡的研究进展

纤溶酶原激活剂抑制物2型(PAI-2)是一种多功能蛋白质,除了能有效抑制尿激酶(uPA)和双链组织型纤溶酶原激活物(tPA)而调节纤溶活性外,还参与了很多其它的生理病理过程,例如组织重建、胚胎发育、感染、免疫系统发育、肿瘤浸润和迁移等。更有研究表明胞内型PAI-2在抑制细胞凋亡方面也发挥着重要作用。本文就近年来PAI-2抑制细胞凋亡的研究进展作一综述。     

登革2型病毒调控血管内皮细胞纤溶系统相关蛋白的表达

目的观察登革2型病毒（DV2）对人脐静脉血管内皮细胞（HUVEC）表达组织纤溶酶原激活物（tPA）和纤溶酶原激活物抑制物1（PAI-1）的影响。方法应用胰酶消化分离HUVEC并进行传代培养，用生长良好的第2．3代细胞进行试验。用cell counting kit-8（CCK-8）测定DV2感染后细胞活性变化；发色底物法测定感染DV2组和对照组培养液中tPA、PAI-1活性；RT-PCR检测细胞内tPA和PAI-1 mRNA水平。结果DV2感染对细胞活力的影响与对照组相比差异无统计学意义。感染DV2组培养液中tPA活性在12～72h显著升高（P〈0．05）；DV2诱导HUVEC表达tPA mRNA的水平显著上调，12h达到峰值，以后渐降，72h mRNA表达水平仍高于对照组（P〈0．01）。而DV2感染组培养液中PAI-1活性和PAI-1 mRNA的表达与对照组比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论DV2感染可显著上调HUVEC的tPA mRNA转录，增强内皮细胞tPA蛋白的分泌，而不影响PAI-1 mRNA的转录或改变内皮细胞PAI-1的分泌。结果提示DV2可活化但并不损伤内皮细胞，诱发内皮细胞增强表达纤溶酶原激活物而致使纤溶系统失衡，引起纤溶亢进，这可能是诱发DHF／DSS患者急性期出血、低血容量性休克等体征的主要因素之一。     

体外培养的血管内皮细胞低氧低糖损伤后tPA、PAI-1表达变化

目的：观察体外培养的血管内皮细胞低氧低糖损伤后组织型纤溶酶原激活剂(tPA)、Ⅰ型纤溶酶原激活物抑制因子(PAI-1)表达变化，探讨脑缺血后纤溶系统的变化及机制。材料和方法：制备体外内皮细胞低氧低糖损伤模型，利用HE染色、免疫细胞化学染色观察tPA、PAI-1表达变化。结果：低氧低糖损伤后，tPA、PAI-1表达均明显增强。结论：成功制备体外内皮细胞低氧低糖损伤模型。内皮细胞低氧低糖损伤可以诱导tPA、PAI-1表达增多，进一步说明脑缺血损伤后tPA、PAI-1表达增加并参与损伤过程。     

LPS促进HUVECs表达纤溶酶原激活物抑制物1

目的：观察LPS对脐静脉血管内皮细胞(HUVECs)表达组织纤溶酶原激活物(tPA)和纤溶酶原激活物抑制物1(PAI-1)的影响。 方法： 用生长良好的第2、3代HUVECs进行试验。用cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)测定LPS刺激后细胞活性变化；发色底物法测定LPS组和对照组培养液中tPA, PAI-1活性；RT-PCR检测细胞内tPA和PAI-1 mRNA水平。 结果： 与对照组相比，LPS(10 mg/L)对细胞活性没有明显差异。LPS诱导PAI-1活性在24-72 h显著升高(P<0.05),且显著上调PAI-1 mRNA，24 h达到峰值，以后渐降，72 h达到正常水平。而LPS组与对照组tPA活性与tPA mRNA无明显差异(P>0.05)。 结论： LPS(10 mg/L)可显著上调PAI-1 mRNA转录和分泌而不影响tPA mRNA，结果提示LPS可活化内皮细胞，诱发PAI-1 mRNA表达和蛋白分泌而抑制纤溶系统，这有利于微血栓的形成、血栓稳定,血液凝固和DIC发生。     

人脐静脉内皮细胞分泌组织型纤溶酶原激活物及其抑制剂1对醒脑静干预的反应

Renal dysplasia and asplenia in two sibs

A family is reported in which two sibs, one male and the other female, both died within 24 hours of birth with enlarged polycystic kidneys. Postmortem histology in the second child showed gross renal dysplasia. In both children the pancreas was enlarged, nodular and cystic but the liver appeared macroscopically normal. In the second child, histological examination confirmed pancreatic fibrosis with cystic dilation of ducts, but showed portal fibrosis with bile duct proliferation in the liver.
This combination of findings is very reminiscent of those in a girl and her brother reported by Ivemark et al. (1959). The children reported here also showed absence or hypoplasia of the spleen, cardiac anomalies and other features of the Ivemark syndrome (Ivemark 1955), a quite different, usually sporadic, congenital disorder. It is suggested that the children described here have a distinct lethal congenital disorder, probably inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.     

Schizophrenia in a North Swedish geographical isolate, 1900–1977. Epidemiology, genetics and biochemistry

Over 200 schizophrenic patients belonging to three major and interrelated pedigree complexes have been investigated over the past 30 years in a North Swedish geographically isolated population, presently numbering about 6,000. An intensive investigation of a number of biochemical correlates and genetic markers in a few selected families belonging to one of the major pedigrees has indicated new strategies for the current research program.
Schizophrenia, as defined operationally, is significantly associated with decreased activities of two enzymes (1) blood platelet monoamine oxidase, (2) plasma dopamine-β-hydroxylase, and (3) with the genetic marker Gc² (group specific antigen). Both enzymes are subject to genetic variation. A positive score for linkage between schizophrenia and low plasma DBH activity has been calculated, but, so far, available data are insufficient for discrimination between linkage and partial contribution of genetically controlled low plasma DBH to the pathogenesis of the disease. Alternatively, both mechanisms could be involved.
As a model for continued research, schizophrenia is explained as based on a double dominant-recessive genotype (Aabb), representing a vulnerability which in about 50 % of cases develops into clinical schizophrenia. It is suggested that the dominant mutation (A) operates on or affects MAO activity, and that the recessive genotype (bb) is instrumental in low variates of DBH activity and very likely such variates within the normal range of physiological variation. Moreover, it is suggested that the combined effects of MAO- and DBH-reduced efficiency on the metabolism of e.g. dopamine could be an essential pathogenic mechanism for the schizophrenic illness which is segregating in this population.     

The dominant diseases of modernized societies as omega-3 essential fatty acid deficiency syndrome: Substrate beriberi

About 1900, modern food selection and processing caused widespread $\text{epidemics}$ of the B vitamin deficiency diseases of beriberi and pellagra which, for genetic reasons, often expressed as different diseases ranging from bowel and heart disease to dermatoses and psychoses. But the B vitamins merely help convert essential fatty acids (EFA) into the prostaglandin (PG) tissue regulators and it now turns out that, through hydrogenation, milling and selection of w3-poor southern foods, we have also been systematically depleting, by as much as 90%, a newly discovered trace Nordic EFA (w3) of special importance to primates and sole precursor of the PG3(4) series, even as a concurrent fiber deficiency increases body demand for EFA. Since substrate EFA is processed by many B vitamin catalysts, an EFA deficiency will mimic a $\text{panh}$ypovitaminosis B, i.e., a mixture of $\text{substrate}$ beriberi and $\text{substrate}$ pellagra resembling vitamin beriberi and pellagra but exhibiting as even more diverse $\text{endemic}$ disease. This would consitute a second stage of the Modern Malnutrition and explain why some workers now hold the dominant diseases of modermized societies to be new, nutritionally based, pellagraform yet lipid-related and to range, once again, from heart disease to psychosis. It is an assumption that our dominant diseases are unrelated to each other or are merely revealed by our diagnostic acumen and therapeutic success; and that hydrogenating millions of tons of food oils annually, to destroy the rancidity producing w3-EFA, is safe for $\text{primates}$. Extensive beriberiform disease is reported here in 32 typical cases taken from medical practice which responds strikingly to linseed oil supplements (60% w3-EFA) in confirmation of identical results in Capuchins.     

What will studies of Fulani individuals naturally exposed to malaria teach us about protective immunity to malaria?

There are an estimated over 200 million yearly cases of malaria worldwide. Despite concerted international effort to combat the disease, it still causes approximately half a million deaths every year, the majority of which are young children with Plasmodium falciparum infection in sub-Saharan Africa. Successes are largely attributed to malaria prevention strategies, such as insecticide-treated mosquito nets and indoor spraying, as well as improved access to existing treatments. One important hurdle to new approaches for the treatment and prevention of malaria is our limited understanding of the biology of Plasmodium infection and its complex interaction with the immune system of its human host. Therefore, the elimination of malaria in Africa not only relies on existing tools to reduce malaria burden, but also requires fundamental research to develop innovative approaches. Here, we summarize our discoveries from investigations of ethnic groups of West Africa who have different susceptibility to malaria.     

'Very sore nights and days': the child's experience of illness in early modern England, c.1580-1720

Sick children were ubiquitous in early modern England, and yet they have received very little attention from historians. Taking the elusive perspective of the child, this article explores the physical, emotional, and spiritual experience of illness in England between approximately 1580 and 1720. What was it like being ill and suffering pain? How did the young respond emotionally to the anticipation of death? It is argued that children’s experiences were characterised by profound ambivalence: illness could be terrifying and distressing, but also a source of emotional and spiritual fulfilment and joy. This interpretation challenges the common assumption amongst medical historians that the experiences of early modern patients were utterly miserable. It also sheds light on children’s emotional feelings for their parents, a subject often overlooked in the historiography of childhood. The primary sources used in this article include diaries, autobiographies, letters, the biographies of pious children, printed possession cases, doctors’ casebooks, and theological treatises concerning the afterlife.     

Guidelines for the Validation and Use of Immunoassays for Determination of Introduced Proteins in Biotechnology Enhanced Crops and Derived Food Ingredients

Recent advancements in agricultural biotechnology have created a need for analytical techniques to determine introduced proteins in crops enhanced through modern biotechnology techniques. These proteins are expressed in plant tissues and may be present in food ingredients. Immunoassays are ideally suited for protein detection and may be used as both quantitative and threshold methods. Microplate ELISA and lateral flow devices are two of the most commonly used immunoassay formats for agricultural biotechnology applications. This paper provides general background information and a discussion of criteria for the validation and application of immunochemical methods to the analysis of proteins introduced into plants and food ingredients using biotechnology methods. It is the result of a collaborative effort of members of the Analytical Environmental Immunochemical Consortium. This collaborative effort represents the combined expertise of several organizations to reach consensus on establishing guidelines for the validation and use of immunoassays. Further, the paper offers developers and users a consistent approach to adopting the technology as well as aid in producing accurate and meaningful results.     

HLA in North Colombia Chimila Amerindians

HLA-A,-B,-C,-DRB1 and -DQB1 alleles have been studied in Chimila Amerindians from Sabana de San Angel (North Colombian Coast) by using high resolution molecular typing. A frequent extended haplotype was found:HLA-A*24:02-B*51:10-C*15:02-BRB1*04:07-DQB1*03:02 (28.7%) which has also been described in Amerinndian Mayos Mexican population (Mexico, California Gulf, Pacific Ocean). Other haplotypes had already been found in Amerindians from Mexico (Pacific and Atlantic Coast), Peru (highlands and Amazon Basin), Bolivia and North USA. A geographic pattern according to HLA allele or haplotype frequencies is lacking in Amerindians, as already known. Also, five new extended haplotypes were found in Chimila Amerindians. Their HLA-A*24:02 high frequencies characteristic is shared with aboriginal populations of Taiwan; also, HLA-C*01:02 high frequencies are found in New Zealand Maoris, New Caledonians and Kimberly Aborigines from Australia. Finally, this study may show a model of evolutionary factors acting and rising one HLA allele frequency (-A*24:02), but not in others that belong to the same or different HLA loci.     

Ultracryotomy: development and application (with examples from the yeast cytology) (author's transl)

The preparation steps usually necessary for obtaining ultrathin frozen sections of biological material (chemical prefixation, enclosing, cryoprotective treatment, freezing, sectioning, and post-staining the sections for transmission electron microscopy) are submitted to a critical analysis. The application of cryo-ultramicrotomy, in particularly for cytochemical purposes, is reviewed. Fundamental considerations of chemical prefixation and poststaining are supported by examples from yeast cytology. Furthermore, the efficiency of the cryo-ultramicrotomy (electron optical resolution of ultrastructural details) is demonstrated on yeast cells and protoplasts.     

The universal muscular chamber. A basic unit of the genitourinary, cardiovascular, gastro-intestinal, skeletal, cutaneous, respiratory and other systems, endocameral hypertension; and spasm, the key to their idiopathic diseases and arthropathies

Starting with the integument, we see many organs are contractile sacs or multiples thereof, which tubes or bags constitute the major part of the entire body. Recognition of this basic unit and its characteristics sheds new light, individually and collectively, on many disorders previously considered unrelated. Muscular tears and perforations develop in the walls of these chambers, being no way peculiar to those organs, wherein, hydrochloric acid occurs. So, it is not necessary to explain the absence of excessive acid from patients who exhibit holes in the gastric, uterine, aortic, duodenal, rectal, pulmonary, retina, and other walls. Muscle, not acid is the great common factor relating idiopathic disorders in the gastrointestinal tract to each other and to similar diseases in other systems. When the units are linked together, the lesions tend to appear as arthropathies, i.e. at the joints. Rephrasing common-place observations, frees us from conventional, conceptual cul-de-sacs. An observation is only as good as its interpretation, so all possibilities must be considered, otherwise, we will remain blinded by our misconceptions.
