Shape changes produced in detergent extracted bovine retinal pigment epithelium when exposed to ATP. A comparison with fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells

The response of single detergent treated bovine retinal pigment epithelial cells in culture to ATP was measured with an image analyser. The most pronounced contraction was produced by 1.0 mM ATP with most change taking place in the first 10 min. At 1 h the area had decreased by about 33%, perimeter 22% and maximum length 25%. By way of comparison rabbit skin fibroblasts had a decreased area of approximately 40%, perimeter 25% and maximum length 22%. Bovine aortic smooth muscle cells on the other hand decreased in area by 55%, perimeter 40% and maximum length 36%. It is hoped that this assay may be used to evaluate drugs which could counteract contractile events in proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

Changes in outcome with sphincter preserving surgery for rectal cancer in Korea, 1991-2000.

AIM: To report the clinical and oncological data of patients operated on for rectal cancers 3-5 cm from the AV over a 10 year period, including the Sphincter preservation (SP) rate. METHODS: We reviewed medical records of 304 patients with rectal cancers 3-5 cm from the AV who underwent surgical resection from January 1991 through December 2000. The 10 years were divided into three periods based on the introduction of new surgical techniques, specifically, ultralow anterior resection (ULAR) with double stapling in March 1994 and ULAR with coloanal anastomosis in April 1997. The rates of SP, complications and patient survival during these periods were compared. RESULTS: The SP rate increased significantly over the 10 years, from 16.4% in period I (January 1991-February 1994), to 53.0% in period II (March 1994-March 1997), to 86.5% in period III (April 1997-December 2000) (p<0.001). Over time, the age of the patients increased (p=0.004), the length of the distal resection margin became shorter (p=0.005), and the rate of lymph node metastasis increased (p=0.016). The factors significantly influencing SP were the period (p<0.001) and the distance from the AV (p<0.001). Over time, morbidity did not increase, and overall and disease free survival rates did not decrease. In contrast, the overall survival of N2 cases significantly increased over time (p=0.0492). CONCLUSION: Over 10 years, the SP rate in rectal cancers 3-5 cm from the AV was significantly increased by the introduction of the double stapling and coloanal anastomosis techniques. These surgical methods, however, had no effect on morbidity, disease free survival and overall survival rates.     

油茶皂甙对实验动物造血机能的影响

目的：研究油茶皂甙对豚鼠和罗非鱼造血功能的影响。方法：比较油茶皂甙（1mg/kg）处理前和处理后豚鼠红细胞和血红蛋白量计数变化。罗非鱼分对照组和油茶皂甙处理组，分别在清水和含1ppm油茶皂甙水饲养6天后，再同时置入清水中净养，观察其存活20％的最高温度。结果：豚鼠用药前后红细胞计数和血红蛋白含量改变轻微，无明显统计学差异（P＞0．05），对照组和油茶皂甙处理组罗非鱼在清水中饲养的耐受最高温度为41．5℃，但在含油茶皂甙水中能耐受的最主温度为36℃。结论：油茶皂甙可短暂，轻微地降低红细胞和血红蛋白，但并不影响造血功能。     

Differentiation of Helicobacter pylori isolates by polymerase chain reaction—restriction fragment length polymorphism

Objective: To investigate the association between the diversity of urease gene and urease activity of clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Methods: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) of urease gene and rapid urease activity test were used to study the urease activity of different clinical isolates of H. pylori. Results: H. pylori clinical isolates were divided into 4 types according to their PCR-RFLP results of urease gene and urease activity. Type Ⅰ , possessing strong urease activity (0. 11) and presented 1 fragment of 1. 7 kb by PCR-RFLP, had close relations with gastric ulcer; type Ⅱ , with the weakest urease activity (0. 07) and 2 fragments (1. 3 and 0. 4 kb respectively) , was associated with duodenal bulb ulcer; type Ⅲ , with the strongest urease activity (0. 12) and 2 fragments (0. 4 and 0. 17 kb) with or without 1 fragment (0. 23 or 0. 37 kb) , was responsible for gastritis; type Ⅳ , with weak urease activity (0. 09) and 2 fragments     

儿童髓母细胞瘤中VEGFR-2的表达

目的：探讨血管内皮生长因子受体VEGFR－2在儿童髓母细胞瘤中的表达及临床意义。方法：采用免疫组化LSAB法检测84例获随访的儿童髓母细胞瘤中的VEGFR－2表达，按术后生存期3，5，10年分为A，B，C三组，使用Cox回归统计分析。结果：84例儿童髓母细胞瘤中，VEGFR－2阳性表达74例（88．09％），A，B，C三组间VEGFR－2阳性表达分别为100％，88．89％，55．33％（P＜0．01），Cox回归分析显示VEGFR－2是影响生存时间的一个独立的预后因子，它与预后存在负相关关系。结论：VEGFR－2表达水平可作为儿童髓母细胞瘤的预后指标之一。

目的 :探讨“云克”(99Tc MDP)治疗类风湿性关节炎 (RA)的免疫机制。方法 :采用ELISA双抗体夹心法 ,观察“云克”体外对RA患者外周血单核细胞 (PBMC)产生白介素 1(IL 1)和可溶性白介素 2受体 (sIL 2R)的影响。结果 :“云克”有抑制RA患者IL 1的分泌及细菌脂多糖 (LPS)的促分泌作用 ,并对可溶性白介素 2受体的自发分泌及植物血素 (PHA)诱导分泌均有抑制作用。结论 :“云克”对RA的治疗机制可能与其降低IL 1和sIL 2R的作用有关     

B细胞淋巴瘤TIL-T的IL-2Rα基因突变及蛋白表达检测

目的 :检测B细胞淋巴瘤 (B NHL)中肿瘤浸润T细胞 (TIL T)的活化标记IL 2Rα(CD2 5 )的基因及蛋白表达 ,寻找TIL T在B NHL肿瘤微环境中存在意义的实验依据。方法 :将 19例B NHL提取RNA ,采用RT PCR和SSCP检测其IL 2Rα的Ⅳ Ⅷ外显子基因突变与否 ;19例B NHL采用细胞免疫化学染色进行CD3、CD4、CD8、CD2 0、CD2 5细胞免疫表型的分析 ;2 9例B NHL和 2 0例良性淋巴组织 ,采用冰冻切片免疫组化方法进行IL 2Rα(CD2 5 )蛋白表达的检测。结果 :SSCP显示 19例TIL -T的IL 2Rα未发现异常泳动条带。细胞免疫化学染色示B NHL中 5 2 .6 3% (10 /19例 )的CD2 5 +细胞少于 10 % ,TIL T(CD3+)与CD4相关 (r =0 .5 7,P <0 .0 1)并与CD2 5相关 (r =0 .5 0 ,P <0 .0 5 )。免疫组化示 86 .2 % (2 5 /2 9例 )的B NHL中CD2 5表达 (+/- )和 (+) ,且主要表达在TIL T细胞上 ,呈散在分布 ,阳性细胞少于T标记细胞。结论 :19例TIL T的IL 2Rα在RNA水平未发现基因异常 ;CD2 5蛋白在B NHL中呈弱表达趋势。提示部分TIL T不表达CD2 5 ,推测TIL T的IL 2Rα的表达在转录后机制中可能出现异常或TIL T存在活化障碍。
