洛沙坦对肥胖Zucker大鼠肾组织环氧化酶2表达的影响

目的 探讨血管紧张素Ⅱ(AngⅡ)1型受体拮抗剂(ARB)洛沙坦对代谢综合征(MS)肾组织环氧化酶2(COX-2)表达的影响及其机制。 方法 把7周大的MS模型肥胖Zucker大鼠随机分成洛沙坦处理组和未处理组，以瘦Zucker大鼠为对照组，连续给药4个月后观察肾组织内COX-2的表达。另外，用AngⅡ刺激6 h的系膜细胞和用从微型渗透泵灌注AngⅡ 5 d的C57BL/6小鼠肾脏提取的肾皮质，观察COX-2的表达。采用RT-PCR和Western印迹法分别检测COX-2 mRNA和蛋白的表达。 结果 洛沙坦可阻止肥胖Zucker大鼠肾组织内COX-2表达增加。AngⅡ直接刺激可以诱导系膜细胞和肾组织内COX-2表达增加。 结论 AngⅡ可以调控MS肾组织内COX-2表达增加。ARB可以通过抑制COX-2的表达保护MS肾脏，这对应用非COX-2抑制剂来保护MS肾脏具有重要的意义。     

NEUROTROPIN IMMUNOSTIMULATING ACTION ON IMMUNOCOMPETENT CELLS

Neurotropin (NSP) is an extract isolated from the skin of rabbits inoculated with vaccinia virus. The present study examines the possible action of NSP on the number and function of immunocompe tent cells in mice. The experiment showed that NSP had no effect on both T and B lymphocytes of nor- malimmunized mouse spleen. The degree of plaque forming cell reaction and titre of specific antibody showed no significant differences when the NSP treated group and controls were compared. How- ever, NSP exhibited promotive effect on specific antigen binding cells in the early stage of immune responses. It was also noted that the rosette forming capacity of human T lymphocytes in vitro was restor- ed markedly by NSP. These results suggest that NSP possesses certain immunostimulating activity, particularly on the specific antigen binding cells and human T lymphocytes.

Dose reduction for the management of indinavir-related toxicity in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected patients in Taiwan: clinical and pharmacokinetic assessment.

This study evaluated the feasibility of reducing the indinavir (IDV) dosage in Taiwanese patients receiving the standard IDV/ritonavir (RTV) dosage of 800/100 mg twice a day who had undetectable plasma human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA but had developed IDV-related toxicities. After dosage reduction to IDV/RTV 600/100 mg twice a day, the dose-related toxicity decreased and plasma HIV RNA remained undetectable at 24 weeks post-switch in all patients. The maximal plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve of IDV decreased significantly (median, 6.3 vs 4.3 microg/mL and 1892 vs 1292 microg.min/mL, p=0.01 and 0.001, respectively) but the minimal plasma concentration remained at a similar level (median, 1.0 vs 0.8 microg/mL, p=0.12). This study found that the reduction in the dosage of IDV in HIV-1 infected patients receiving the standard IDV/RTV regimen guided by therapeutic drug monitoring decreased the Cmax, dose-related toxicity and medical cost without compromising viral control.     

Inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasome system: a new avenue for atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND: The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is thought to be functionally active in atherosclerosis (AS) lesions. Aspirin was found to be a potent inhibitor of the UPS in some tumour studies; however, its effect on AS remains to be demonstrated in vivo. METHODS: New Zealand rabbits were placed on a normal diet (N) or on a normal diet with aspirin (NI) or on an atherogenic diet without (H) or with aspirin (HI) for 12 weeks. Proteasome activity, concentrations of plasma lipids and levels of peroxidation were determined. Ubiquitin/ubiquitin-conjugates (Ub), IkappaBalpha, phosphorylated IkappaB (pIkappaBalpha) and p65 were investigated by Western blotting or immunochemistry. RESULTS: Concentrations of plasma lipids and peroxidation levels were higher in H or HI vs. N or NI. Histological analysis showed that atheroma was increased in H. Ub and IkappaBalpha were mainly localised in subendothelium and media vascular smooth muscle cells. Western blots revealed that Ub, IkappaBalpha, and pIkappaBalpha were increased, whereas p65 was lower in HI vs. H. The activity of the 20S proteasome was functionally active in H vs. N, NI or HI, while the 26S proteasome was not affected in any of the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Aspirin can attenuate the pathogenesis of atheroma formation, the degradation of IkappaBalpha and pIkappaBalpha, and lower the expression of p65, indicating that its therapeutic effects on AS may be via inhibition of the UPS.     

大脑中动脉支架内血栓形成1例报告

支架内血栓形成是支架置入术后的一种常见并发症。术后血管内皮损伤、胶原组织暴露和作为异物的支架均为引发血栓形成的可能机制。不能及时识别处理则成为再狭窄的重要原因。我们报告1例发生在大脑中动脉（middle cerebral artery，MCA）支架内的血栓形成，探讨其识别处理过程和可能的机制。
