间硝苯地平对血管紧张素Ⅱ促进血管平滑肌细胞增殖和蛋白质合成的影响

以培养血管平滑肌细胞（ｖａｓｃｕｌａｒｓｍｃｏｔｈｍｕｓｃｌｅｃｅｌｌ，ＶＳＭＣ）为模型，观察了间硝苯地平（ｍ－ｎｉｆｅｄｉｐｉｎｅ，ｍ－Ｎｉｆ）对血管紧张素Ⅱ（ａｎｇｉｏｔｅｎｓｉｎⅡ，ＡＮＧⅡ）促进ＶＳＭＣ增殖和蛋白质合成的影响。结果表明，ｍ－Ｎｉｆ抑制ＡＮＧⅡ（１００ｎｍｏｌ·Ｌ￣（－１））引起ＶＳＭＣ［￣３Ｈ］ｔｈｙｍｉｄｉｎｅ和［￣３Ｈ］ｌｅｕｃｉｎｅ参入，并呈剂量依赖性。ｍ－Ｎｉｆ（２×１０￣（－６）ｍｏｌ·Ｌ￣（－１））可抑制ＡＮＧⅡ对ＶＳＭＣ的刺激、ＤＮＡ及蛋白质合成速率，分别降低了４６％，５８％，５３％。提示ｍ－Ｎｉｆ可抑制ＡＮＧⅡ对ＶＳＭＣ增殖和蛋白合成的促进作用     

Evaluation of non-invasive techniques to assess vasoconstriction in healthy volunteers using methoxamine as a probe drug

Non-invasive methods for assessment of the vascular effects of antimigraine drugs were evaluated with respect to their utility, variability and sensitivity in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-period crossover study in six healthy volunteers using an intravenous vasoconstrictor, methoxamine, as a probe drug. Changes in the internal diameter of the brachial and radial arteries were measured using ultrasound which had low between-day and within-day coefficients of variation. Peak systolic velocity (PSV), time-averaged velocity (TAV), total flow, resistance (RI) and pulsatility indices (PI) were measured by Doppler from one arterial wave form. Whilst PSV and TAV increased with methoxamine, because of bradycardia, changes in PI and RI were difficult to interpret. An automatic oscillametric cuff, a mercury-in-silastic strain gauge method and the "Finapres", finger arterial blood pressure monitor were used to follow changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP). The strain gauge technique underestimated arm SBP compared to the oscillometric method but clearly showed drug-related increases whilst the Finapres did not reflect changes in blood pressure detected by the other methods.

Practical and technical considerations in establishing an intraoperative radiation therapy program in the community practice

The Radiation Oncology Center in Sacramento, California, has developed a procedure for establishing an intraoperative radiation therapy facility in a community practice. The logistics pertaining to personnel, equipment, physical measurements, and quality assurance are presented. Particular emphasis is given to the most effective means of acquiring the large quantity of data needed to ensure a program of acceptable quality.
