Intrinsic resistance to anticancer agents in the murine pancreatic adenocarcinoma PANC02

Summary PANC02 is a ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas that is resistant to every known class of clinically active antitumor agent. To study the mechanism(s) underlying the intrinsic drug resistance of this tumor, a mammary adenocarcinoma (CA-755) that also grows in C57/BL mice and is known to be drugsensitive was used for comparison. PANC02 resistance and CA-755 sensitivity to several antitumor agents and to X-ray therapy was confirmed in mice, and PANC02 also demonstrated relative resistance in tissue culture. Relative to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and CA-755 cells, PANC02 did not appear to show a higher rate of mutation to drug resistance in culture as based on the 6-thioguanine resistance marker. Although P-glycoprotein characteristic of the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon could be demonstrated at the mRNA level using a sensitive RNAse protection assay, the level of expression found was several orders of magnitude lower than that observed in phenotypic MDR cell lines. Furthermore, quinidine failed to increase the sensitivity of PANC02 cells to Adriamycin under conditions that clearly potentiated the toxicity of the drug to a CHO cell line exhibiting classic MDR traits. The heterogeneity in the distribution of drugs was inferred as being significantly greater in PANC02 versus CA-755 cells in vivo as based on measurements of within-animal, within-tumor variance in the distribution of the marker compounds inulin and antipyrine. Although it may not be the only mechanism involved, this greater intratumor heterogeneity in drug distribution could theoretically play a major role in the intrinsic drug resistance of PANC02 in vivo.Supported by grant CH-458 from the American Cancer Society, by grant CA-28034 from the National Cancer Institute, and in part by Cancer Center Core Support grant, NIH-NCI-CA-16672.

Autoantibodies to Serum Proteins in Women with Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion: Subsequent Pregnancy Outcome

Sera from 130 first trimester pregnant women were tested for their serum antibody level against a naturally occurring serum antigen purified from non-pregnancy sera. IgG and IgM antibody level was measured using enzyme linked immunosorbant assay. Results indicate that patients with multiple abortion (n=26) have significantly (p=0.0029) lower level of IgG antibody and significantly (p=0.0001) higher level of IgM antibodies; against the serum antigen as compared to the patients with successful pregnancies with no history of miscarriage (n=63). Western blot analysis identified the scrum antigen recognized by the IgM antibody as a 24 kDa molecular mass component. These IgG and IgM antibodies may play an important role in the outcome of pregnancy.

母血中胎儿有核红细胞的荧光原位杂交法在产前诊断中的可行性探讨

探讨荧光原位杂交法（FISH）对母血中胎儿有核红细胞（NRBC）进行无创性产前诊断的可行性。20例孕龄15-20周的孕妇外周血经不连续密度梯度离心、制片、显微镜下识别并共计数NRBC及定位，然后行Y染色体的FISH检测。结果发现10例孕男性胎儿的孕妇外周血细胞涂片中每例均有阳性杂交信号出现；阳性率为60％（24/40）。10例孕女性胎儿的孕妇外周血细胞涂片中1例出现阳性杂交信号；阴性率为95％（38/40），假阳性率仅为5％（2/40）。结果提示FISH法对于用母血中分离到的胎儿细胞进行染色体异常的无创性产前遗传学检查具有重要意义。     

INAUGURAL ARTICLE by a Recently Elected Academy Member:The cell surface metalloprotease/disintegrin Kuzbanian is required for axonal extension in Drosophila

It has long been suspected that proteolytic activity associated with advancing growth cones may be required for axon extension. We have isolated mutations in the kuzbanian (kuz) gene, which is expressed in the nervous system and encodes a putative zinc metalloprotease with a disintegrin domain. Drosophila embryos with loss-of-function mutations in kuz have dramatic defects in the development of central nervous system axon pathways, with many axons stalling and failing to extend through the nerve cord. This phenotype is rescued by panneural expression of kuz mRNA in the embryo. These results show that the Kuz metalloprotease is required for axon extension, suggesting a requirement for proteolytic activity at the growth cone surface.     

40m 以浅潜艇艇员饱和暴露后脱险减压方法的研究

1991～1992年进行了两次8人次模拟20、40m 饱和暴露后脱险减压方法的人体实验研究。在20m 空气饱和暴露后直接出水.在水面进行压力转移,6人次中出现皮肤瘙痒和关节疼痛4人次,当再加压回到20m后,症状消失:水面间隔总时间为9～15min。在4人次j40m 空气饱和暴露后直接减压到22m(再进行水面转移),未发现任何减压病症状。实验期间还观察了:在高压下人体自身的实际耗氧及高分压氧对肺部的影响。实验结果为今后现场实际应用的饱和脱险减压方法、减压程序提供了依据。     

HLA‐DPB1 allelic frequency of the Pumi ethnic group in south‐west China and evolutionary relationship of Pumi with other populations

A sequencing‐based typing of the HLA‐DPB1 gene was carried out in 51 unrelated healthy individuals from the Yunnan Pumi ethnic minority. A total of 18 DPB1 alleles, in which DPB1*0501 (52.0%) and DPB1*0402 (15.7%) greatly predominated, were found, of which alleles DPB1*20011, 2201, 3601, 3701, 3801, 4901, 5001 and 8001 were recorded for the first time in the Chinese population. This may be because the typing methods used in previous genotyping of Chinese populations were of lower sensitivity than that used in our study. A dendrogram constructed by the maximum likelihood method showed that the Pumi ethnic minority belongs to the Asian/Australasian cluster and has the closest relationship to Trobriander, implying an unusual relationship between Australasian and South China populations. However, the Yi ethnic minority, which also comes from the ancient Qiang, did not show a very close relationship with the Pumi. This is probably because the Pumi were historically assimilated by local south‐west China populations.
