Monitoring of serum markers for fibrosis during CCl4-induced liver damage. Effects of anti-fibrotic agents.

Liver fibrosis was induced in rats by repeated peritoneal injections of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) over a period of 2-11 weeks. Serum procollagen III peptide (SPIIINP), prolidase (SP) and alanine aminotransferase (SALT) levels were monitored during the period of induction. The extent of fibrosis was semi-quantitatively estimated after collagen staining, and the anti-fibrotic effects of 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (DMPGE2), colchicine, and zinc sulphate were studied. SPIIINP and SP were increased the first 2 weeks after CCl4 administration and peaked at 6 weeks. Alterations in SPIIINP and SP correlated well to the semi-quantitative histological score of liver sections during the first 6 weeks, and SP was positively related to SPIIINP throughout the whole induction period. DMPGE2 decreased SPIIINP, SP and SALT significantly in addition to a markedly decreased formation of liver collagens. Colchicine had a similar but less dramatic effect, whereas zinc sulphate only reduced SPIIINP without influencing liver damage. In conclusion SPIIINP seems to be a valuable indicator of liver fibrogenesis, and SP may play a limited role in indicating accelerated collagen metabolism in the liver. DMPGE2 obviously inhibited the production of collagens induced by CCl4. Colchicine also had an apparent effect on liver fibrosis, whereas zinc sulphate merely seemed to postpone it.     

原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进的骨骼X线分析(附36例报告)

本文分析了36例原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进的骨骼X线改变,认为主要的骨病征象可概括为指骨的骨膜下骨吸收、颅骨的磨玻璃样及颗粒状改变、骨皮质下的囊肿样改变和棕色瘤,骨的突起或肌腱韧带附着处的骨吸收,以及软骨下骨吸收。骨皮质下囊变的征象对鉴别诊断很有帮助。作者认为骨质疏松和反复泌尿系结石可提示甲状旁腺功能亢进的早期表现,应及时检查血钙磷以确诊。     

汤岗子矿泉浴对大鼠血液皮质醇及甲状腺素日生物周期节律影响的实验观察

本文报告大鼠分别在6时、12时、18时、24时接受汤岗子矿泉38～39℃浸浴15分钟后,立即断头取血测定血液皮质醇及甲状腺素(T_4)。在6时、24时的矿泉浸浴组大鼠血浆皮质醇比对照组明显升高。在12时、18时矿泉浸浴组大鼠血清T_4比对照组明显升高。说明肾上腺皮质及甲状腺功能对全身矿泉浸浴热刺激的反应也遵循日周期节律。为矿泉治疗的时间生物学理论提供依据。     

紫外分光光度法同时测定增效黄连素胶囊中二组分含量

本文提出以紫外分光光度法测定增效黄连素胶囊含量。样品经乙醇溶解、水稀释后，不经分离提取，直接在３４６ｎｍ波长处测定盐酸黄连素；在３４６ｎｍ和２７１ｎｍ波长处以系数倍率法测定甲氧苄氨嘧啶，测得二组分的平均回收率分别为９９．１％和９９．６％，相对标准偏差为０．６７％和０．８２％（ｎ＝９）．本法简便，快速，适用于增效黄连素胶囊的常规分析．     

山莨菪碱防治甘油所致急性肾功能衰竭的实验研究

在１２９只ＳＤ大鼠的实验中动态观察了山莨菪碱对甘油所致急性肾功能衰竭时不同时期的Ｂｃｒ，ＢＵＮ，ｐＨ病理改变及死亡率的影响，结果表明：山莨菪碱能降低ＡＲＦ第５天大鼠死亡率以及Ｂｃｒ，ＢＵＮ水平。改善病理损害，对ＡＲＦ起到预防及治疗效果，山莨菪碱的预防效果优于治疗效果，预防是ＡＲＦ防治的关键，但山莨菪碱在治疗过程中要引起“冲刷综合征”导致洗脱性酸中毒，应引起注意。     

半乳糖-半乳糖胺检测法在大肠癌筛选中的应用

应用半乳糖-半乳糖胺检测法对118份直肠粘液标本作了检查。在30例大肠癌病人中其阳性率达90％,在65例肠粘膜正常人中,其阴性率达92.3％;另外20例大肠息肉病人中,其阳性率为15％,3例溃疡性结肠炎病人中阳性率为66.7％。结果表明:该法有较高的敏感性(90％)和特异性(92.3％),方法简便,结果易重复,在大肠癌普查中具有较大的应用潜力;在大肠息肉和溃疡结肠性炎中也有一定的阳性率,提示该法可用于某些大肠癌癌前状态恶变的监测。     

微量地塞米松与抗病毒药物合用对抗单疱病毒作用的影响

报告在组织培养中地塞米松对单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)的生长繁殖无影响,对无环鸟苷(ACV)和环胞苷(CC)的抗病毒作用亦无干扰。在动物实验中,微量地塞米松[0.001%,常用浓度(0.1%)的百分之一]并不恶化上皮型HSV角膜炎。同时证明有效抗病毒药物的合用,微量地塞米松仍保留有良好的消炎作用,能促进上皮型和实质层型单疱角膜炎的痊愈过程。     

白血病患者血清铜、锌的变化

本文报道57例白血病血清铜,锌含量的测定结果。白血病治疗前血清铜升高,铜/锌值增大;治疗后,病情缓解者下降,未缓解者则更高。血清锌在治疗前后无何差异。急性淋巴细胞性白血病骨髓中白血病细胞百分数与血清铜浓度呈正相关。检测血清铜,锌对白血病疗效的预测及判断预后有一定意义。
