Study on sensitivity of neuroglioma to chemotherapeutic drugs]

In this study, the chemosensitivity of 36 cases' fresh neuroglioma specimens was examined in vitro with MTT assay. The separation method for single tumor cell, the number of planting of cells, and the dosage and acting time of drugs, which have effects on the results of MTT assay, were studied systematically. On the basis of this experiment, we established a screening method for the chemosensitivity of neuroglioma; it is accurate, rapid, and simple. At the same time, the results showed that neuroglioma was more sensitive to the chemotherapeutic drugs Vm26, DDP and MMC, and the sensitivity varied with not only the drugs but also the individuals.     

Treatment of neurofibromatosis with Chinese herbal drugs.

Neurofibromatosis is a dominantly inheriteddefect of the ectoderm,characterized by cafe au laitspots since the childhood and multiple tumorsderived from elements of peripheral and cranialnerves.Hernia-like tumors of various sizes can oftenbe felt under the skin and serve as a valuablecharacteristic in making diagnosis.However,theycan also affect brain,vegetative nerve system or othertissues and lead to bony abnormalities,mentaldisturbances and sometimes,endocrine abnormalities,     

固定化葡萄糖氧化酶流动注射化学发光法测定血糖

Luminol-hemin system was used for chemiluminescent flow-injection analysis with immobilized glucoxidase(GOD) column to determine blood glucose. The method is fast, simple and sensitive. Blood samples were diluted to 1:1000 and pumped into the flow-injection analyzer for direct detection. The sampling frequency was 30 samples/h, with a detection limit of 7.2 x 10(-9) mol/L(1.30 micrograms/L). A column packed with 36 milligrams of CPG could be used nearly 200 times. The determination results of glucose in serum by this method were in good agreement with those obtained by the routine GOD spectrophotometric method (correlation coefficient r = 0.90, P > 0.05). Recoveries of this method were 94.0%-107.2%.     

Changes of type I collagen in the lungs of rats with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension]

The changes of type I collagen in the lung tissues of rats with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and its relationship to the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) were investigated. The blood dynamic indexes of pulmonary circulation were measured by using Swan-Ganz. The distribution of type I collagen in pulmonary arteries, bronchi and plumonary interstitial was observed by using streptavidin peroxidase method (SP). The morphologic changes of small pulmonary arteries and the level of type I collagen were determined by image pattern analysis technique and gray scale scanning, respectively. The results showed, compared with the controls, mPAP of the hypoxic rats elevated (from 2.12 +/- 0.25 to 3.95 +/- 0.43 kPa, P < 0.01), their small pulmonary arteries, walls thickened (MT% from 16.35 +/- 2.64 to 35.83 +/- 3.55, MA% from 26.83 +/- 3.40 to 59.68 +/- 4.90, P < 0.01) and lumen narrowed. The distribution of type I collagen was mainly in the external layer of pulmonary arterial walls; the positive degrees of gray scale scanning increased and had a positive linear relationship to the mPAP and MT%. These findings suggest that the increase of type I collagen contents in pulmonary arteries is closely related to the development of HPH.     

Inhibition of the activation and collagen production of cultured rat hepatic stellate cells by antisense oligonucleotides against transforming growth factor-beta 1 is enhanced by cationic liposome delivery]

In order to investigate the inhibition of the activation and collagen production of cultured rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC) by antisense oligonucleotides (ASON) against TGF beta 1 after cationic liposome (lipofectin) delivery, the authors synthesized a 20-mer phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotide of TGF beta 1 mRNA, and its sense of missense oligonucleotides, and then treated the HSC with cationic liposome/oligonucleotide complexes respectively. The cellular uptake of 32P-labelled oligonucleotides was determined by liquid scintillation counting, and HSC activation was assessed by the expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin(alpha-SMA). The cellular uptake of lipofectin/32P-ASON complex was approximately five-fold higher than that of 32P-ASON alone. Cationic liposome (lipofectin) delivery significantly increased the inhibition of HSCs activation by ASON, while compared with the use of naked TGF beta 1 ASON at the same concentration (at a final concentration of 1 mumol/L, P < 0.05). However, these effects were not observed in lipofectin alone, liposome/sense or missense oligos complexes at the same concentration. The oligonucleotide or lipofectin/oligos complexes had no cytotoxicity to rat HSCs in culture. These findings suggest that cationic liposome is an effective vehicle to improve the delivery of ASON to rat HSCs in culture, and the cationic liposome/TGF beta 1 ASON complex may be useful for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis.
