表皮生长因子及其受体与流产关系的探讨

采用放射免疫竞争抑制饱和分析法，检测４７例难免流产患者，６５例人工流产及２０例健康非孕妇女血清表皮生长因子（ＥＧＦ）水平；同时采用免疫组织化学法检测流产者胚胎组织中表皮生长因子受体（ＥＧＦＲ）表达程度。结果：人工流产组血清ＥＧＦ水平高于自然流产及非孕妇女，而自然流产与非孕妇女差异无显著性；胚胎组织中ＥＧＦＲ阳性表达率人工流产组明显高于自然流产组。提示：ＥＧＦ通过与其受体结合对妊娠维持、胚胎及胎儿的     

非放射性HBV－DNA探针在乙型肝炎病毒检测中的应用

以地高辛甙元随机引物法标记ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ探针，以此探针检测慢性乙型肝炎患者的血清、肝组织，同时以ＥＬＩＳＡ法检测血清ＨＢｅＡｇ、ＨＢｃＡｂ。结果：血清ＮＢｅＡｇ阳性率２７％（１０／３７），血清ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ检出率５７．１％（２０／３５），两者有显著性差异。血清ＨＢｃＡｂ阳性率７８．４％（２９／３７），肝组织ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ检出率８３．８％（３１／３７），两者无显著性差异。血清与肝组织ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ检出率有显著性差异。提示：血清ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ检测是较ＨＢｅＡｇ更为准确客观反映血液带毒状况的指标。而准确反映肝脏带毒状况的指标是肝组织ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ检测。当ＨＢｅＡｇ阴转，血清ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ阴性而肝组织ＨＢＶ－ＤＮＡ阳性时，需注意肝硬化及肝癌的发生。     

中华按蚊感染马来丝虫后蚊存活率的变化

实验室驯化的中华按蚊，通过人胎盘膜，吸取含马来丝虫微丝蚴的新鲜兔血而获感染。在温度为２８℃，相对湿度为７５－８５％的实验条件下，观察了中华按蚊感染马来丝虫主存活率的变化。结果表明，感染微丝蚴密度最高组蚊的存活率比其它各组明显下降。     

特异性DNA倍增技术检测t-PA cDNA基因在表达细胞中的稳定性

利用特异性DNA倍增技术(polymerase chain Reaction,PCR)检测t-PA cDNA基因在表达细胞基因组中的稳定性,并对所得的PCR反应产物进行了限制性内切酶片段、分子杂交和核苷酸顺序分析等方面的研究,证实了t-PA cDNA基因已插入到表达细胞染色体中。这种方法快速、简便、灵敏度和特异性高,是检测基因工程表达细胞中cDNA基因稳定整合状况的好方法。     

Stabilization of an inserted tricalcium phosphate spacer enhances the healing of a segmental tibial defect in sheep

The effect of inserting a tricalcium phosphate (TCP) spacer stabilized by a rigid or non-rigid fixation technique on the healing of segmental tibial defects of critical size was established. The osteotomized tibiae, 11 with and 8 without TCP spacers, were fixed by an external circular device in 11 mature sheep and by plates in 8 mature sheep, respectively. Healing was evaluated roentgenographically 16 weeks after the operation. Compared with the defects without TCP spacers, enhanced stability and healing were observed in the defects with TCP spacers under an identical external fixation. Furthermore, a significantly higher incidence of healing was obtained with plate fixation than with external device fixation in the TCP-implanted defects (P < 0.04). An abundant bridging callus was roentgenograpically demonstrated in most of the healed defects, but none in the unhealed defects. The TCP spacer with its mechanical integrity enhances the stability of external fixation, and the stable immobilization provided by rigid fixation is essential for osteoconduction of an inserted TCP spacer in the healing of segmental diaphyseal defects in sheep.     

572例近视眼患者中央角膜厚度测量报告

本文作者在572例(1144只眼)近视眼患者拟行角膜放射状切开(RK)手术前,对角膜不同部位厚度进行了测量,对其值作统计学处理,均值及标准差为0.527±0.037mm,标准误为0.002,说明我国95％的近视眼患者中央角膜厚度范围为0.455—0.600mm。提示我国成人各年龄组左、右眼角膜厚度与左、右眼屈光度、性别、眼别无关。强调RK手术前对角膜厚度测量的重要性,但手术预后优劣为多因素所致。     

Purification and chemical modification of porcine bone morphogenetic protein

Implantation of porcine bone morphogenetic protein (pBMP) in the muscle induces differentiation of mesenchymal-type cells and results in endochondral bone formation. pBMP was isolated from porcine demineralized bone matrix and purified by hydroxyapatite chromatography, Sephadex G75 gel filtration, preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), preparative isoelectric focusing (IEF), and chromatofocusing fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). Porcine BMP has an MW of 26 K and a range of pI from 4.65 to 4.73 determined by SDS-PAGE and IEF, respectively. Reconstitution with the citrate buffer supernatant fraction enables as little as 50 micrograms of the soluble pBMP fractions to induce osteogenesis in an in vivo assay. Chemical modification studies indicate that the osteoinductive potential of the pBMP molecule depends on tyrosine, carboxyl groups, and disulfide bonds and can be increased by modification of sulfhydryl groups. Modification of arginine and tryptophan has no effect on bioactivity. By pepsin-limited proteolysis, fragments of pBMP with an MW of 6-14 K show definite, although reduced, BMP activity.

对居民使用液化气健康效应的初步探讨

对液化气燃烧后室内空气污染进行了流行病学调查，结果显示，液化气燃烧可造成ＳＯ＿２、ＮＯ＿２、空气总悬浮颗粒物和总烃类的室内空气污染。小鼠接触三个月出现Ｔ淋巴细胞计数降低、睡眠时间延长、骨髓嗜多染红细胞微核率增加、肺组织匀浆Ａｍｅｓ试验阳性率增高、雄性小鼠精子畸形率增加，并有明显的剂量－反应关系。对接触５年以上的人群调查发现，呼吸道、鼻和眼的自觉症状明显增加，咽炎、鼻炎、结膜炎患病率增高。人群尿液浓缩物Ａｍｅｓ试验和外周血红细胞微核率检出阳性结果，可能与液化气燃烧废气中含有致突变污染物有关。
