Effects on Fertility of Rabbits After Active Immunization With Rat Testicular Cytochrome ct

ABSTRACT: A Male rabbit was immunized with rat testicular cytochrome (Cyt) c_t and mated with normal, unimmunized females. The matings resulted in abnormal pregnancies: no offspring or stillborn or undersized liveborn offspring weighing 25–30 gm each. Another unusual observation was that fur-pulling behavior, normally exhibited by pregnant female rabbits at the end of the gestational period, was absent in all of these pregnancies. Therefore, immunization of a normal rabbit with testicular cyt c_t appeared to interfere with physiological and behavioral aspects of pregnancy in normal female rabbits. The immunological basis of these findings remains to be determined.     

HLA-DR4 SUBTYPE AND -B ALLELES IN DQB1*0302-POSITIVE HAPLOTYPES ASSOCIATED WITH IDDM

We determined the distribution of DR4 subtypes in 309 DQB1*0302-positive haplotypes found in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients and 70 control haplotypes present only in healthy family members. An increased frequency of DRB1*0401 allele (74.4% vs. 55.7%, P = 0.003) and a decrease of DRB1*0404 allele (23.6% vs. 40.0%, P = 0.0064) was revealed. A further analysis of extended haplotypes demonstrated strong linkages between various B alleles and DRB1*04 subtypes. HLA-B39 was more frequent in DRB1*0404–DQB1*0302-positive IDDM haplotypes compared with control ones (37.0% vs. 14.3%, P = 0.049), suggesting an involvement of the region telomeric to HLA-DRB1 in the susceptibility to IDDM.     

国产美罗培南治疗急性细菌性感染的临床试验

目的:研究国产美罗培南用于抗感染治疗的临床疗效和安全性.方法:将30例中、重度急性细菌性感染患者按随机对照平行法分成2组,治疗组14例,给予美罗培南0.5g,q8h,静脉滴注;对照组16例,给予泰能(亚胺培南/西司他丁)1.0g,q8h,静脉滴注.两药疗程均为7～10d.结果:两组的临床痊愈率均为50%;临床有效率治疗组和对照组分别为85.7%和87.5%;细菌清除率分别为84.6%和85.7%;不良反应发生率分别为14.3%和18.8%.以上指标两组差异均无显著性(P>0.05).结论:国产新药美罗培南用于抗感染治疗安全有效.     

电脉冲介导基因转移效率的实验研究

目的　研究电脉冲介导的基因转移效率及其最佳的基因转移的电脉冲参数。方法　用微量注射器将pcD2/LacZ质粒10μg,在昆明小鼠的股四头肌注射,1～2min内在注射部位给予不同参数的电脉冲刺激(不同的电脉冲参数每组10只小鼠),然后进行β-半乳糖苷酶活性的测定或酶组织化学染色。同时设空白对照组及单纯注射组。结果　电脉冲可明显增加LacZ基因的表达,电脉冲组的β-半乳糖苷酶活性（131.6U/mg±86.5U/mg蛋白）是单纯注射组（4.9U/mg±1.0U/mg蛋白）的30倍（P<0.05）。组织化学染色结果表明电脉冲组肌肉组织中β-半乳糖苷酶蓝色颗粒的数目和染色的程度均明显高于单纯肌肉注射组。当电脉冲参数电压200V/cm,波宽40ms,脉冲次数6次和频率1Hz时,可获得最高的基因表达效率。结论　在最佳的电脉冲参数条件下,电脉冲介导的基因转移可获得较高的基因表达。
