Licht- und elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen zur Histopathogenität vonMacracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus (Archiacanthocephala) in experimentell infizierten Hausschweinen

Zusammenfassung Die vonMacracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus verursachten Läsionen im Dünndarm von experimentell infizierten Hausschweinen (7 Tage p.i. und 84 Tage p.i.) wurden licht- und elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Die Würmer der 84 Tage alten Infektion waren tiefer in die Darmwand eingedrungen als die 7 Tage alten Würmer. Ihr Präsoma wurde von Entzündungsbzw. Bindegewebe umhüllt, das zahlreiche Plasmazellen enthielt. Bei 7 Tage alten Infektionen wurde noch keine Fibrose nachgewiesen. Eosinophilen-ähnliche Granulozyten, die an den Proboscishaken akkumulierten, herrschten in der Läsion vor. Eine osmiophile Gleitflüssigkeit, die offenbar an der Basis der Proboscishaken ausgeschieden wurde, schien eine stark antigene Wirkung auf die Leukozyten des Schweins auszuüben. In keinem Fall wurden Würmer angetroffen, die die gesamte Darmwand perforiert hatten, wie es in China bei Menschen beschrieben wurde.

Light and electron microscopical investigation of the histopathogenicity ofMacracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus in experimentally infected swine

One and 12 weeks after infection the lesions in the small intestine of two domestic pigs caused byMacracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus were studied by means of light and electron microscopy. Worms of 7 d.p.i. were found to have penetrated with their presoma into the tunica propria and partly into the tunica muscularis where they had caused local mechanic destructions and heavy eosinophilic-like and hemorrhagic reactions. Most eosinophilic-like granulocytes were attracted to the proboscis hooks, at the base of which an osmiophilic substance apparently was excreted. Worms of 84 d.p.i. had penetrated with their proboscis deeply into the tunica muscularis. The presoma had become encapsulated by a solid capsule of necrotic/inflammatory tissue in its inner part and by filamentous connective tissue in its outer part. The predominant leucocytes in the inflammatory tissue now were plasma cells indicating a progressive immune reaction. No worms were found to have perforated the entire intestinal wall as was described from human patients in China.

Expression of interleukin-1 in Reed-Sternberg cells and neoplastic cells from true histiocytic malignancies.

Interleukin-1, a peptide produced by monocytes, histiocytes, and interdigitating reticulum cells, plays an important role in the regulation of immune function. In this styde, we examined the production of interleukin-1 in 115 patients with a variety of human lymphomas by using a rabbit anti-interleukin-1 antibody and the immunoperoxidase technique. Interleukin-1 was detected in Reed-Sternberg cells from 20 patients with Hodgkin's disease as well as in neoplastic cells from 9 patients with true histiocytic lymphoma or malignant histiocytosis. In the other 86 cases, which included T- and B-cell lymphomas, no interleukin-1 could be detected. This result indicates a close relationship between Hodgkin's disease and true histiocytic malignancies and provides additional evidence to support our hypothesis that Reed-Sternberg cells are related to interdigitating reticulum cells.     

冲击伤肺肋面的平行出血条纹

本文采用部分肋骨切除术,切除15只家兔双侧5、6、7、8肋中任一肋距脊柱约2cm处一段长约1cm的肋骨。一周后对受冲击波致伤的肺肋面的出血情况进行解剖观察,发现肺肋面的出血条纹呈“工”字形,从而为冲击伤肺肋面的平行出血条纹是肋间压痕这一观点找到了直接的实验证据。     

HLA-DR, DQ antigens in North American Caucasians

HLA-DR, DQ specificities are determined by serological methods in 2,586 North American Caucasians. Antigen frequency, gene frequency and haplotype frequency are computed for each phenotype observed. The DR and DQ loci antigen distributions are well-fitted to a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (p greater than 0.25 for DR locus, p greater than 0.10 for DQ locus). All World Health Organization (WHO) recognized HLA-DR,DQ specificities were found except HLA-DRw18, which has been identified only in the black population. DR and DQ linkage disequilibria among recently defined splits is observed. The following DR and DQ associations are found: DR1 and DQw5; DR4 and DQw7, DQw8; DR7 and DQw2, DQw9; DR8 and DQw4, DQw6, DQw7; DR9 and DQw2, DQw9; DRw10 and DQw5; DRw11 and DQw6, DQw7; DRw12 and DQw5, DQw7; DRw13 and DQw6, DQw7; DRw14 and DQw5, DQW7; DRw15 and DQw6, DQw7; DRw16 and DQw5; DRw17 and DQw2. In this large study population, the following unusual DR and DQ associations are found: DR4, DQw2; DR4, DQw1; DR1, DQw7; DR7, DQw5; DRw17, DQw6; and other unusual haplotype phenotypes containing DRX, DQX.

Quantification of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 RNA Levels in Plasma by Using Small-Volume-Format Branched-DNA Assays

We have developed small-volume (50 or 250 μl)-format branched-DNA assays for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA for use with specimens in which the volume is limited and/or a high viral load is anticipated. These formats exhibited good correlation with the standard 1-ml format; high specificity, reproducibility, and linearity; and no significant difference in the quantification of HIV-1 subtypes.     

Shear Rate Dependence of Ultrasound Backscattering from Blood Samples Characterized by Different Levels of Erythrocyte Aggregation

The objectives were (1) to determine the effect of the erythrocyte aggregation level (wide range of aggregation) and shear rate (which also affects aggregation) on the ultrasound backscattered power, and (2) to evaluate the reproducibility of the ultrasound method. Experiments were performed under steady flow (100–1250 ml/min) in a 12.7 mm diameter vertical tube. Doppler ultrasound at 10 MHz was used to measure simultaneously the velocity and the backscattered power across the tube. For each radial position, the shear rate was computed from the derivative of the velocity profile. The backscattered power decayed exponentially as a function of the shear rate, and for a given shear rate, the power increased monotonically with the level of aggregation measured by laser reflectometry. Using blood samples simulating hypo-, normal, and hyperaggregating erythrocytes, the power of the ultrasound signal varied respectively by –7.8, –13.2, and –16.1 dB as a function of the shear rate (from 0.4 to 50 s^–1). The reproducibility of the backscattered power was 5.5 dB, which is less than the variations observed as a function of the shear rate. In conclusion, ultrasound backscattering is sensitive to the level of erythrocyte aggregation. At a first glance, ultrasound seems less accurate when compared to laser reflectometry but it is suggested that this is because ultrasound backscattering may be sensitive to structural aggregate changes that are not detected by the laser method. © 2000 Biomedical Engineering Society.
