Microvascular corrosion casting of normal tissue, transitional mucosa and adenocarcinoma in the human colon.

The microcirculatory architecture of normal tissue, transitional mucosa and adenocarcinoma of the human colon was investigated with microvascular corrosion casting (MVCC) combined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The study showed that the capillaries within the normal mucosa were arranged in a regular hexagonal pattern around the mucosal glands and that the microvessels of transitional mucosa mostly had lost the typical hexagonal pattern and become slightly wider in diameter. The microvessels in the tumor periphery were increased in number and disorganized, and presented large variation in morphology with claw-like formations, widened sinuses, diverticula and appendixoid patterns. Microvessels were lacking in the central areas of tumors. These morphological alterations may serve as additional indicators of tumor development.     

A Bronchial Response Comparison of Exercise and Methacholine in Asthmatic Subjects

The authors compared the inhaled methacholine and exercise responses in 22 stable unmedicated asthmatic patients. The exercise and methacholine challenges were performed at one to three week intervals. Bronchial responsiveness to methacholine was measured in relation to the concentration of methacholine (PC₂₀M). The response to exercise was expressed as the percentage of fall in FEV₁, from the pre-exercise FEV₁ The findings showed that 21 of 22 subjects demonstrated a fall in FEV₁, of more than 20% after methacholine challenge, while only 9/22 subjects experienced a similar decrease in FEV₁. All 9 of these positive response exercise cases completed three consecutive exercise challenges prior to the methacholine challenge. Of these cases, five were refractory to the repeated exercise challenge, and the PD₂₀M at the nonexercise stage was significantly lower than the postexercise state. In fact, the methacholine challenge sensitivity actually decreased (PD₂₀ increased) after repeated exercise. The authors concluded that methacholine seems to be a more sensitive bronchial provocation test than exercise. Second, only 55.6% of the exercise test-positive subjects were refractory to the second exercise challenge. Therefore, other factors besides the release of mediators should be considered in exercise induced asthma. Third, methacholine sensitivity actually decreased (PD₂₀ increases) after repeat exercise challenge.     

脂质体携载SOD的实验研究

本文采用去垢剂透析法成功制备出携载ＳＯＤ的脂质体（Ｌ－ＳＯＤ），其直径为１０２ｎｍ，对ＳＯＤ的包裹率为２１％，９０％以上酶活性存在于脂质体内部。将Ｌ－ＳＯＤ注射到大鼠静脉血中，其半衰期超过４ｈ，明显长于天然ＳＯＤ（８ｍｉｎ）。表明Ｌ－ＳＯＤ优于天然ＳＯＤ，具有临床应用前景。     

Lesbianism in China

Lesbianism in China has a long but usually hidden history. This paper examines the historical and literary sources of the past to illustrate the history of lesbianism and then turns to a survey of lesbianism in the China of today. As in the past, lesbianism remains more or less hidden, and comes to light only occasionally. Data for contemporary China comes from a visit to an institution for delinquent young women, recent police records, and contemporary fiction. It has only been in the past 4 or 5 years that it was possible to talk about lesbianism and most lesbians are fearful of becoming identified.

羊心淋巴流阻断后血清生化指标的改变

为给临床心脏术后监测心淋巴管损伤程度及可能出现的并发症提供参考指标，以手术方法阻断羊心淋巴流并对其血清相关成份进行了测定。实验发现，实验组术后谷草转氨酶（ＳＧＯＴ）、谷丙转氨酶（ＳＧＰＴ）、碱性磷酸酶（ＡＫＰ）、乳酸脱氢酶（ＬＤＨ）均有不同程度的增高，以ＳＧＯＴ增高最为明显，术前均值为４７．５３Ｕ，术后２天增至１０４．２０Ｕ，高峰出现时间最早，多在术后２４小时。血清离子改变中低钾最为突出，血钾在术后２天明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０１），术后７天逐渐恢复，术后１４天恢复至术前水平。血清蛋白改变以球蛋白降低、白蛋白／球蛋白比值升高为主。提示心淋巴循环郁滞可导致心肌细胞损伤、毛细血管通透性和结构的改变。不同酶活性的变化对郁滞的敏感度存在着差异。

CD4+ T-epitope repertoire on the human acetylcholine receptor alpha subunit in severe myasthenia gravis: a study with synthetic peptides.

The alpha subunit of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) seems crucial in the pathogenesis of the autoimmune paralysis myasthenia gravis (MG) because it contains both the epitopes that dominate the antibody response against the AChR and those recognized by CD4+ AChR-specific T helper (Th) cells. To define the repertoire of anti-AChR Th cells, we investigated the response of unselected blood CD4+ cells or total lymphocytes, or both, from 22 MG patients to 20-residue overlapping synthetic peptides, screening the complete sequence of human-muscle AChR alpha subunit. Several epitopes were identified. Only the most severely affected patients recognized alpha subunit epitopes, and they were mainly young women. Detection of in vitro AChR-specific CD4+ response was facilitated by removal of the CD8+ cells because in two patients a clear response to several alpha subunit peptide sequences could be detected when CD(8+)-depleted cells were used, while their total peripheral blood mononuclear cell population did not respond to any alpha subunit peptide. Although each patient had a unique pattern of peptide recognition, four immunodominant regions recognized by long-term AChR-specific CD4+ T-cell lines, or flanking peptide sequences, were recognized most frequently (residues 48-67, 101-137, 293-337, and 308-437).
